Chapter 1472: Chapter 1472: The Demon Beast Erges
The pink sachet was the only item Feng Jun didn’t touch while retrieving the Big Boss’s collection in the Bewildering Soul Forest.
The collection itself was very small: just a storage ring and a sachet. He had handled the storage ring a few tis because it contained multiple spaces, but as for the pink sachet… he truly did not know what was inside.
However, he speculated that this sachet could well be a Spirit Beast Bag—because the Big Boss not only forbade him to touch it but also kept it close at all tis, clearly regarding it as a final trump card.
Of course, if Feng Jun wanted to touch it, he could find so excuse, but… why bother?
At this mont, the pink sachet moved slightly, releasing a wildly untad aura that instantly shattered the Ice Seal encasing Feng Jun.
Then, a white fox leaped out of the pink sachet, growing swiftly to over a dozen feet tall, waving its nine tails behind it as it emitted a sharp cry, “Screech~~~”
“Nine-Tailed Fox!” The face of the High-Rank Golden Core attacker changed, “To think we’d encounter a Nine-Tailed Fox at the Golden Core Peak here!”
“Courting death!” A Mid-Stage Golden Core, who had remained inactive until now, was guarding against the impending arrival of Qu Jianlei and Crimson Pheonix Rongxun. But seeing the situation, he could no longer remain indifferent, so he threw out a circular ring, “Bind!”
This was the Beast Binding Ring. Though it appeared to be a Precious Treasure, it was actually a Talisman that could only be used once, but its effect was much stronger than ordinary Beast Binding Rings. It could basically ignore the defenses of Demon Beasts and directly bind them.
However, as strong as this thing was, its flaw was obvious—it didn’t last long; even the strongest things always have weaknesses.
Of course, at this mont, it was a battle for ti; ten breaths were enough to change the battle’s outco.
But as the Beast Binding Ring slipped over the fox’s head, the fox shook its body, letting out another piercing cry, “Screech~~~”
With the cry, the Beast Binding Ring shattered in mid-air, slowly disappearing.
At that mont, Feng Jun also vanished from his original spot, leaving only a Spirit Beast Bag on the ground.
When he reappeared, he was ten miles away—that was the “footprint” he had set the night before.
Last night, he went out just for this footprint, because he estimated that a fierce battle was imminent today.
He hadn’t expected such a large formation like the Soul Suppressing Formation, but he had made sufficient preparations—at least Yue Qing ca at his invitation, arriving quietly in the morning and lying in ambush here.
Feng Jun estimated that before Yue Qing arrived, these people should have already set up their ambush; however, with Yue Qing’s skills, even if he couldn’t detect the opponent, he certainly wouldn’t be detected by them either.
Since it was uncertain if there would be a battle today, he hadn’t notified more people; otherwise, Master Sumiao and Master Xiaong would have accompanied him—the key reason being that if there were no fight, not only would it be embarrassing, but he would owe them a favor.
In fact, he thought that at most, their opponents would have two or three Golden Cores, and Qu Jianlei combined with Yue Qing would be enough to handle them. And since Yue Qing owed him a big favor, a needless trip wouldn’t matter. How could he have imagined that five Golden Core Masters would suddenly appear?
Five Golden Cores plus a Soul Suppressing Formation—he really didn’t expect his opponents to value him so highly. Honestly, if not for the Big Boss summoning the Nine-Tailed White Fox, he would have already been on the run.
Assessing the combat strength, Yue Qing could withstand three Golden Cores—that was the theory—and Qu Jianlei could entangle one Golden Core. Supposedly, he shouldn’t have had to run.
But in reality, two Golden Cores were enough to entangle Yue Qing, which was a different matter altogether from whether he could withstand three Golden Cores.
So Feng Jun faced the likelihood of at least being besieged by two Golden Cores, which would significantly distract Qu Jianlei and Yue Qing, making escape a better option for him.
However, the situation was now different. The combat ability of that white fox was extraordinarily formidable, seeming not to be weaker than Yue Qing at all. Thus, after escaping the confines of the Soul Suppressing Formation using Weimian’s Force, Feng Jun decisively utilized the footprint to once again enter the mobile phone realm.
The location from which he disengaged wasn’t far from the battlefield—for a battle of this caliber, a re ten miles was really not that far.
But when the ambushing five Golden Cores witnessed this, they were greatly astonished, with the High-Rank Golden Core Master Hanpo directly exclaiming, “You can teleport within the Soul Suppressing Formation?”
The Soul Suppressing Formation primarily suppressed the soul but also served a binding function, and with souls being suppressed, ordinary talismans couldn’t be used. Unless Feng Jun’s soul strength was enough, he wouldn’t even be able to conjure the thought of “leaving.”
Especially since they had set up a Golden Core Level Soul Suppressing Formation capable of suppressing Golden Cores; now they saw a Mid-Stage Beyond Mortal escape. It truly shook their worldview.
Feng Jun had no ti to care about their astonishnt. Once the Soul Suppressing Formation was erected, he could see its scope at a glance, spanning seven or eight miles in diater. Yue Qing and the Nine-Tailed Fox were engaging with the enemies within the formation.
Yue Qing certainly had a Magical Treasure to resist the Soul Suppressing Formation, but even so, battling two Golden Cores within the formation was exceptionally challenging.
In reality, Master Hanpo was also greatly troubled by Yue Qing, incessantly trying to persuade him during the fight, saying this wasn’t his affair. “Our Yinsha Sect gets along well with your Qinggang Sect. Feng Jun is so close to Taiqing; what’s the point of you making a stand here?”
The Nine-Tailed White Fox was even more fierce than Yue Qing, actually holding off a High-Stage Golden Core cultivator and a Mid-Stage Golden Core cultivator by itself.
The other Mid-Stage Golden Core cultivator kept firing talismans while staying alert—Crimson Phoenix Sect’s reinforcents could arrive at any mont.
Feng Jun’s figure flickered as he blinked to the edge of the Soul Suppressing Formation, simultaneously shouting, “You two, quickly exit the Soul Suppressing Formation…”
Before the words were out of his mouth, the Mid-Stage Golden Core who had been continuously releasing talismans also flickered beside him, extending a large ethereal hand to grab him.
With a blink, Feng Jun teleported five or six miles away. Yet, that cultivator was experienced and tossed a talisman, shouting, “Delay!”
His precision was impeccable, but unfortunately, Feng Jun didn’t retreat diagonally this ti; instead, he moved laterally, narrowly avoiding the delay talisman. He was not Yue Qing, who could fight while enduring a delay talisman.
However, he was quite curious: Are you familiar with my paralysis talisman?
He never thought opponents would co without knowing anything about him—it would be impossible for such a fool to survive to the Golden Core level.
Moreover, the ambush was a coordinated effort of five Golden Core cultivators with a Soul Suppressing Formation, proving how seriously they took him. So, could those daring to attack him be unprepared for a paralysis technique?
In the earlier chaos, any Golden Core cultivator who attacked him might not be able to counter the paralysis technique—after all, there are only a few ans to counter it, and they are expensive and extrely rare.
Back then, even if he immobilized soone, there might not have been a chance to finish them as the other four Golden Core cultivators would not sit back and watch him go wild. As long as one of them launched an indiscriminate attack, he would have to flee.
Now, a single Golden Core was facing him one-on-one, which was very suspicious—even with a Soul Suppressing Formation, countering a paralysis technique wouldn’t be unexpected.
Also, the “delay talisman” was an extrely rare talisman, nearly priceless, and today two were used. The opponent even risked a gamble to predict his blink position—a clear sign of their thorough preparation, possibly holding a third or fourth delay talisman.
So, he blinked again to another side, planning to support the Nine-Tailed White Fox about to escape the Soul Suppressing Formation.
As for Yue Qing, he didn’t plan to assist; this guy had thick skin, ample blood, and high defense. Moreover, Yinsha Sect likely wouldn’t go after him hard—if Qinggang’s top Golden Core fell at Yinsha’s hands, it would be quite a spectacle.
However, while the Nine-Tailed White Fox’s attack was stronger than Yue Qing’s, its defense was questionable, so he intended to support it.
Yet, the Mid-Stage Golden Core seed to see through his plan and threw another delay talisman precisely on his path to support.
Fortunately, Feng Jun’s blink this ti covered three miles more than last ti—he hadn’t used full power previously, once again narrowly evading the talisman.
Using delay talismans like this… it was really a bit of a waste, Feng Jun couldn’t help but think.
However, thinking further, he understood. Didn’t they say on Earth Realm that ten thousand bullets were needed to kill one person? Many shells were fired in vain; delay talismans were expensive, but to target soone worthy, missing a few was trivial.
But he really worried that the opponent still had delay talismans, so he did several consecutive blinks, enduring until the Nine-Tailed White Fox broke out of the Soul Suppressing Formation.
In fact, the Nine-Tailed White Fox was significantly affected by the Soul Suppressing Formation. Once out, its aura surged, and the two Golden Core cultivators fighting it didn’t notice, almost being forced back into the formation by its montum.
The real target of these two Golden Core cultivators wasn’t the Nine-Tailed White Fox, but the fox entangled them, preventing them from acting against Feng Jun. Now, taking a slight step back gave them a chance to turn their attention to him.
However, the two didn’t act imdiately, experiencing a mont of subtle stagnation before continuing their attack on the Nine-Tailed White Fox.
This unusual mont caught Feng Jun’s eye, and without hesitation, he retrieved the paralysis talisman, activating it against one of the Mid-Stage Golden Core cultivators, shouting “Paralyze!”
The paralysis talisman sprang into action, immobilizing the Mid-Stage Golden Core on the spot. The High-Stage Golden Core was montarily stunned, then raised his hand to activate a defense talisman for his companion, insanely firing thousands of sword beams at Feng Jun, ignoring the ongoing battle with the Nine-Tailed White Fox.
He initially thought the fox, being Feng Jun’s pet, would protect its master and hence achieve his goal of shielding his companion.
However, he couldn’t have imagined the Nine-Tailed White Fox would also abandon its attack on him, turning instead to strike the immobilized Mid-Stage Golden Core with its massive paws, landing over ten hits with blurred afterimages too quick for ordinary people to follow.
The High-Stage Golden Core was horrified, thinking, how can this beast be so cunning—aren’t you going to protect your master?
In a flash, with over ten paw strikes, the defense talisman on the Mid-Stage Golden Core exploded, and his body was smashed into a pulp.
