"After a quarter of an hour, Lin Feng said goodbye to Elder Shan and left the room, walking out of the Artifact Refining Tower alone.
Now, he was penniless.
In order to purchase the materials for refining his Lifebound Spirit Sword, he not only spent all the spirit stones he had but also sold all the weapons he had crafted, as well as everything in the storage ring of that Artifact Refiner.
Even so, he was still short by ten thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones.
However, Elder Shan waived the last ten thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones for him, which made Lin Feng grateful.
Although it was just ten thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones, Lin Feng rembered this kindness.
Initially, Elder Shan wanted Lin Feng to stay for a while, but Lin Feng politely refused because he was in a rush and didn’t have ti to linger.
At this mont, the artifact refining competition inside the Artifact Refining Tower had already ended, and regarding who won, Lin Feng was not in the mood to find out.
His head was aching now, all he could think about was how to make spirit stones!
He was freaking out of spirit stones!
Cultivation improvent needs spirit stones, physical enhancent needs spirit stones, Martial Soul enhancent needs spirit stones, and even artifact refining materials need spirit stones; without spirit stones, he couldn’t do anything!
Lin Feng even thought of specifically robbing Artifact Refiners, but he quickly dismissed the idea.
If he did so, he would beco the universally despised street rat!
After leaving the Artifact Refining Tower, Lin Feng didn’t linger in Wuling City. Instead, he soared up and flew out of Wuling City.
Soaring through the sky, Lin Feng constantly pondered. Being penniless now, he shouldn’t return to the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
He must find a way to earn so spirit stones first and then return to the sect.
While Lin Feng was thinking, suddenly, two figures burst out from the clouds and blocked his way. "Hm?"
Lin Feng’s gaze sharpened, and he imdiately halted.
Looking towards the two people, the ones blocking him were none other than Sikong Yan and Nie Yu.
"Lin Feng, you didn’t expect this day, did you?"
Sikong Yan and Nie Yu stopped a thousand ters away from Lin Feng; Sikong Yan spoke with a mocking expression on his face.
He had been waiting, waiting for Lin Feng to leave Wuling City.
"I expected it!" Lin Feng shook his head in response. He wasn’t surprised at all by these two stopping him.
Because he had encountered such situations many tis.
"Expected it?"
Sikong Yan sneered mockingly: "Aren’t you afraid now?"
"Afraid of what?" Lin Feng looked puzzled.
"Hmph!"
Seeing Lin Feng feigning ignorance, Sikong Yan imdiately snorted coldly and angrily said, "You scamd of a hundred thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones and caused my elimination in the artifact refining competition; today, I will make you pay a painful price!"
Sikong Yan did not plan to kill Lin Feng, as he knew Lin Feng was not to be killed, but while he could spare death, punishnt was inescapable!
"And !" Nie Yu had a cold smile on his face and angrily shouted, "Lin Feng, you stole my storage ring, I want you to pay back tenfold!"
Seeing the angry expressions of the two, Lin Feng was sowhat speechless.
The reason these two were in such a plight was entirely their own doing; he had never actively sought trouble with them, it was these two who provoked him first.
And blaming him for Sikong Yan’s elimination in the artifact refining contest was truly laughable.
Looking at Sikong Yan, Lin Feng sneered and said, "Sikong Yan, I’m supposed to be your future master. If you don’t acknowledge it now, that’s fine, but do you really want to turn against your ancestor and master?"
Already enraged, Sikong Yan’s face turned red and his anger exploded upon hearing Lin Feng’s words!
"Acknowledge you as master? I acknowledge my ass!"
With a furious shout, Sikong Yan made his move, his body instantly turning a fiery red, and a terrifying heatwave swept all around him.
"Divine Fire Fist!"
With one punch towards the void, a magnificent Fla Fist Power burst forth, instantly turning the air into nothingness, completely distorting space.
Sikong Yan was incredibly powerful, with the fiery power emanating from his body capable of instantly annihilating ordinary Martial Artists of the True Gang Realm and Fifth Layer.
The mont Sikong Yan made his move, Nie Yu instantly retreated far away to avoid being caught in the aftermath.
Nie Yu knew the horror of Sikong Yan and imdiately retreated to a safe distance.
Seeing the might of Sikong Yan’s attack, Lin Feng was shocked and his eyes flashed with brilliance.
He was indeed formidable; the Fist Power he discharged warped space, leaving dark cracks in its wake."
Seeing this, Lin Feng imdiately knew he was no match for his opponent and couldn’t withstand even a single move.
Because the opponent’s strength was close to breaking through the spatial barrier.
Without hesitation, Lin Feng’s thought moved, and the Spirit Sword appeared under his feet.
Swoosh!
In the next breath, Lin Feng’s figure turned into a bolt of lightning shooting across the sky, instantly speeding off into the distance.
In just a flash, he was hundreds of miles away.
Sikong Yan’s Fist Power naturally hit nothing but air.
"What? So fast!"
Sikong Yan, seeing this, widened his eyes and wore a stunned expression. He had never seen a Heavenly Martial Master move with such speed.
"Spirit Sword!" Sikong Yan’s face darkened, imdiately realizing why Lin Feng could move so fast.
Seeing Lin Feng’s figure about to disappear from his view, Sikong Yan sneered, "Think you can escape that easily?"
Before his words fell, Sikong Yan swung his arm, and a huge dark shadow appeared before him.
Chirp!
Following that, a high-pitched cry pierced the air, seemingly loud enough to penetrate one’s eardrums.
It was a massive predatory bird, about a hundred zhang long, with a body as black as ink. Each feather on its body was like a sharp sword, emitting a chilling cold light that made one shudder.
The aura exuding from this predatory bird was terrifying, even surpassing Sikong Yan.
As soon as the bird appeared, Sikong Yan’s figure flashed, and he swiftly flew onto the bird’s back.
Imdiately, the gigantic bird cried out again, flapping its wings to stir up a tempestuous wind, chasing after Lin Feng like lightning.
Lin Feng, flying through the sky, slightly frowned upon seeing Sikong Yan pursuing him.
"Could this be a King Level Demon Beast?"
Lin Feng was shocked, for the bird’s speed was incredibly fast. Though not as swift as his, it was nearly close, nearly matching his Sword Flight speed.
However, Lin Feng quickly dismissed this guess since King Level Demon Beasts could transform and easily break through space, definitely stronger than this beast.
"This must be a Level Five Ninth Layer Demon Beast, or perhaps a half-step King Level Demon Beast!" Lin Feng guessed inwardly.
At this mont, Lin Feng slightly frowned. He had underestimated his opponent, not expecting him to possess such a powerful Spiritual Beast.
Now, though he was unlikely to be caught, escaping from his pursuer would not be easy.
"Lin Feng, where do you think you’re going!" Sikong Yan’s furious shout thundered across the heavens.
Lin Feng coldly smiled, ignoring the other man as he spurred the Spirit Sword, navigating through the heavens and earth.
In the chase between Lin Feng and Sikong Yan, they soon vanished from this space, leaving only Nie Yu with a stunned expression.
"Dammit!" Nie Yu inwardly seethed, having thought he could avenge himself and vent his anger this ti, yet unexpectedly Lin Feng had escaped.
From his perspective, it now seed extrely difficult for Sikong Yan to catch up with Lin Feng.
...
Lin Feng, controlling his sword, pushed the Spirit Sword’s speed to its limit, but still could not shake off Sikong Yan. That imnse predatory bird was always lingering a few hundred miles behind him.
The Spirit Sword was nearly at its ultimate speed, nearly reaching the peak beneath the Martial King level, but the bird was extraordinary too. Not only was it of a high grade, but it was also a speed type among flying Demon Beasts, with unparalleled speed.
Though the Spirit Sword was fast, Lin Feng’s was already partially damaged and just an ordinary Spirit Sword of a relatively low level.
Thus, it was difficult for him to shake off the predatory bird by relying on the Spirit Sword’s speed.
"Hmph! Just keep chasing then!"
Lin Feng sneered, knowing that although he temporarily couldn’t shake off his pursuer, it was also impossible for the other to catch up.
After a while, Lin Feng aid for the Heavenly Spirit Sect and headed straight there.
Initially, he hadn’t planned to return to the Heavenly Spirit Sect, but under the current circumstances, it was the only way to shake off Sikong Yan.
Sikong Yan, stubborn as ever, obviously couldn’t catch up to Lin Feng, but still kept up the relentless pursuit.
After five days of this cat-and-mouse ga, covering countless miles,
"Damn it!"
Seeing that they were about to reach the Heavenly Spirit Sect, Sikong Yan felt like he was going mad.
He had thought he would easily capture Lin Feng, but now it seed there was no chance at all.
Repeatedly failing against Lin Feng, Sikong Yan felt like he was on the brink of collapse!
