Chapter 381: Chapter 33: The Pinnacle Sword

Lin Feng opened his eyes from his cultivation. He sensed the abilities acquired after devouring the Dark Demon Pill, and his face immediately revealed a joyous expression.

Within Dragon Sect, Wu Ming possessed an ancestral “Earth Escape Skill.”

It allowed one to burrow into the depths of the earth. Not only could one conceal oneself within the depths of the earth but also move through it.

How could an ordinary person accomplish this?

Previously, Liuu Wuqing, who ambushed Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue, hid himself inside a large tree to evade Sikong Zhaiyue’s pursuit. That secret technique was called “Wood Escape Skill.”

It was very similar to Wu Ming’s ancestral Earth Escape Technique.

And the ability Lin Feng received from the Dark Giant Demon was ingeniously similar to the Earth Escape Technique and the Wood Escape Skill.

The only difference was that Lin Feng concealed himself “within the darkness.”

“This Dark Giant Demon wanted to devour me, but in the end, it was devoured by me, haha, truly a thrilling experience! Devouring the soul and inner core of the Dark Giant Demon not only greatly increased my Soul Power but also taught me the Dark Escape Skill, simply exhilarating,” he chuckled to himself, a smile on his lips.

He did not linger and quickly swept towards the outside.

This dense forest was extremely dark and eerily quiet, probably due to the Dark Giant Demon’s presence here. With such a demon lurking here, no living creature or Fierce Beast would dare inhabit this place.

“Swoosh…”

Suddenly, Lin Feng heard a noise. Someone had appeared in the forest. He looked into the distance and saw a figure.

Zhao Chong.

It was him, Yuwen Yunfeng’s guard, a Martial King Realm powerhouse from Soul Devouring Hall who had previously pursued him.

Soul Devouring Hall, a place where everyone deserved to be executed.

Between Lin Feng and Soul Devouring Hall, it was truly an Undying and Unending feud.

Seeing Zhao Chong, a murderous intent immediately flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes.

Killing Zhao Chong would remove a formidable enemy.

Moreover, who knew how many innocent people could be saved by slaying this devil?

A chilling killing intent flowed in Lin Feng’s eyes.

However, Lin Feng knew that Zhao Chong was exceptionally fearsome. How difficult would it be to kill him?

“Hide in the darkness…”

Lin Feng muttered the incantation softly.

With a swish.

A flash of light, and Lin Feng had vanished without a trace.

This was precisely the formidable aspect of the “Dark Escape Skill,” concealing oneself within the darkness.

The forest, shrouded in pitch black, was the perfect place to apply the Dark Escape Technique.

Concealed in the darkness, Lin Feng was like an assassin, thoroughly masking his presence.

And at that moment, Zhao Chong was cautiously making his way through the depths of the dense forest.

“Where has that kid run off to? Could he really have been eaten by a Demon Beast?”

Zhao Chong’s expression was grim as he carefully observed the forest in front of him.

As Zhao Chong advanced further, Lin Feng, hidden in the darkness, stealthily followed. He was deeply concealed, not revealing even a hint of his presence.

Like a Poisonous Snake in the darkness that had set its sights on its prey.

Either strike to kill in one blow or don’t strike at all!

For a skilled fighter like Zhao Chong, if a one-strike kill wasn’t achieved, the one killed might well be oneself. Lin Feng was very aware of this.

Finally, Zhao Chong came to the depths of the forest.

“Eh?” Zhao Chong saw the body of the Dark Giant Demon in the darkness, hurried over quickly, and his expression drastically changed.

“How is this possible? The Dark Giant Demon is dead? Where’s that kid?”

Zhao Chong looked incredulously.

“Hum.”

Just then, a flash of cold light descended from the sky, stabbing towards Zhao Chong.

Lin Feng had appeared.

He held the Black Dragon Sword, launching an attack that seemed to descend from the heavens. In the moment Zhao Chong was overwhelmed with shock and emotion, Lin Feng struck with his sword.

“You…”

As Lin Feng launched his attack, Zhao Chong realized what was happening, but it was already too late for him to dodge Lin Feng’s sword.

Zhao Chong reached out to strike Lin Feng.

But Lin Feng struck first.

Another assassination from the darkness!

Like the most seasoned assassin finding the perfect moment.

A sword thrust came piercing through.

Any attempt by Zhao Chong to change his move was too late.

With a *pu-chi*,

Lin Feng’s sword directly pierced through Zhao Chong’s head.

“How can this be?” Zhao Chong’s eyes bulged; he couldn’t believe that he had actually been killed by a military general cultivator.

He was a Martial King, after all.

Slaying military general cultivators was as easy as picking something up for him.

Yet now, he had been killed!

“Whoosh.” A sound of tearing air came from afar, someone else was approaching.

“It’s that old servant.” Lin Feng took a deep breath, pulled out his longsword, and vanished once more.

The old servant’s strength was definitely much greater than Zhao Chong’s, and he was even harder to deal with.

The old servant arrived quickly and saw the corpses of Zhao Chong and the Dark Giant Demon, his pupils shrinking violently.

“The Dark Giant Demon and Zhao Chong have both been killed, could it be that kid’s doing? Not good, this place is dangerous, I need to leave quickly.”

This old servant was indeed a cunning and experienced character; without a second thought, he turned and dashed towards the outside, knowing that this pitch-black place was greatly disadvantageous to him.

Lin Feng remained hidden in the darkness, following him closely.

“To kill or not to kill?” He frowned in the dark.

This old servant was far too cautious, much more so than Zhao Chong, always vigilant of his surroundings.

And the old servant’s strength surpassed Zhao Chong’s as well, significantly increasing the difficulty of the assassination.

To assassinate the old servant, he must gather his strongest sword strike.

*Huff~*

Lin Feng adjusted his breathing. This old servant had to be killed; otherwise, once he returned, the news of his having killed Zhangsun Wuji would spread.

“Go…”

The old servant reached the entrance to the Abyss, leaped up, and aimed to burst through it.

Now was the moment!

Lin Feng made his move.

He leapt out from the void.

All of his essence, qi, and spirit were gathered together.

All of his essence, qi, and spirit surged into the Black Dragon Sword in his hand.

This sword!

Lin Feng poured all his power into it.

Even the Black Dragon Sword emitted a sword glow over a meter long.

A ghastly and bloodthirsty aura diffused from the Black Dragon Sword.

This was Lin Feng’s strongest sword strike! It was his most peak sword strike! It was the sword strike with which he put forth all his strength!

Fast! Fast! Fast! This sword strike achieved extreme speed!

Using the Dark Escape Skill to elude the old servant’s detection, Lin Feng instantly moved beside the old servant and stabbed his sword toward the old servant’s chest.

“Not good, danger!” The old servant, a high-level practitioner in the Martial King Realm, managed to react to Lin Feng’s silent attack, moving his body half an inch to the right.

The sword that Lin Feng had originally aimed at the old servant’s chest, now turned into a strike towards his arm.

*Puh.* Blood splashed; Lin Feng’s sword had cut off one of the old servant’s arms.
