Chapter 403: Chapter 55 Capturing Sun Xitong

“Where do you think you’re going?” Lin Feng barked sharply, swiftly pursuing Sun Xitong.

He certainly had no intention of letting Sun Xitong, this woman, go; failing to take her out now would surely lead to a significant threat later on.

In the world of cultivators, deception and manipulation were commonplace, and sometimes one had to be “ruthless.”

If you sympathized with others, you were likely to meet a grisly end.

Your own death was one thing, but what about your family? Would they be dragged into it?

Often, we live in this world not just for ourselves but for our family.

Thus, we must strive to live freely and for a long time.

Lin Feng’s heart grew colder as he quickened his pace, the distance between him and Sun Xitong narrowing. Beneath the cover of night, Sun Xitong’s complexion was deathly pale. She had been dealt a severe blow and was grievously injured, now hardly possessed the strength to battle Lin Feng. Sun Xitong was filled with resentment, her side had clearly held the upper hand, yet she had fallen into Lin Feng’s clutches.

She could feel the terrifying intent to kill enveloping her from behind.

Only now did Sun Xitong realize what a grave mistake they had made. They had always thought the young man was of no threat due to his low cultivation level, but in reflection, it wasn’t the case at all.

That young man had managed to survive a surprise attack from Liuu Wuqing unharmed, even injuring Liuu in return, then he snatched the Purple Jade Snake Grass amidst a gathering of powerful figures in the Evil Snake Mountain Range, and moved in and out of a Forbidden Space where Yin Yang Realm experts had fallen, seemingly acquiring treasures as well.

Regardless of his low cultivation level, this person’s capabilities were absolutely terrifying and couldn’t be judged by ordinary standards.

If they had paid attention to these details sooner, they should have avoided conflict with him. But now, it was too late.

Sun Xitong consumed several healing pills and felt much better.

These healing pills were incredibly effective, but it was quite unrealistic to expect them to completely cure her injuries and restore her strength in a short amount of time.

Sun Xitong took a deep breath and said out loud, “Is it necessary for us to push each other to a life and death situation? Why don’t we both take a step back today?”

Lin Feng responded with an indifferent laugh, “Take a step back? How shameless can you be to even suggest such a thing?”

“You…” Sun Xitong was infuriated. She said coldly, “Even with my injuries, I am a Martial King Realm expert with higher cultivation than yours. If we truly fight to the death, it’s far from certain whose life will be forfeited.”

Lin Feng slightly furrowed his brow. He understood all too well what Sun Xitong was saying. Yet even so, Lin Feng had no intention of backing down; this was the best opportunity to deal with Sun Xitong. Missing this chance would make finding another far more difficult.

Lin Feng rapidly caught up, not wasting any more words. He immediately launched the “Domineering Heaven Thunder Technique,” creating a dense field of thunderous power, unleashing a bombardment upon Sun Xitong.

Sun Xitong’s pretty face turned unsightly, for she had never thought that Lin Feng would be so determined to take her life. Biting her somewhat pale lips, she struck out with her hand, and in the void, an Energy Great Handprint materialized to meet the Thunder force that was slamming toward her. At the same time, streams of Gang Qi emerged on the surface of Sun Xitong’s body. These streams enshrouded her completely. Lin Feng, knew that this was the Gang Qi that had been transformed after the “True Qi” had merged with the “Gang Wind.”

This Gang Qi possessed an offensive and defensive power greater than ordinary True Qi. Although it wasn’t as powerful as the “Mana” of a cultivator in the Yin Yang Realm, it was not something that True Qi could compare to. This was a unique capability of the Martial King Realm.

Boom…

The power of Lin Feng’s Domineering Heaven Thunder Technique broke through Sun Xitong’s Energy Great Handprint. Despite her formidable strength, Sun Xitong was currently injured—how much combat power could she still muster? Ten percent? Twenty percent? Or perhaps thirty percent?

Sun Xitong was no match for Lin Feng at the moment, and after Shattering her Energy Great Handprint, the Thunder force formed by the Domineering Heaven Thunder Technique swept over her body. Sun Xitong was knocked flying, but the Gang Qi covering her protected her from severe injury. Nevertheless, such a powerful impact had its effect, and Sun Xitong’s face grew even paler.

She clenched her teeth and increased her speed as she shot forward, while Lin Feng quickly gave chase, saying, “Why bother with futile struggles? Now, you can’t escape my grasp.”

“You’d be heartless to kill a delicate beauty like me? Your heart is really made of iron.” Sun Xitong pleaded pitifully.

“Heh…, if my heart is made of iron, then yours is made of venom,” Lin Feng sneered.

Realizing that no matter what she said would not sway Lin Feng, Sun Xitong increased her speed. Suddenly, she heard the sound of water. Ahead of her, a giant waterfall emerged with a vast pool below it. Sun Xitong’s eyes lit up slightly, and she swiftly plunged down with the waterfall into the pool below.

Lin Feng also rushed into the pool, and suddenly, Sun Xitong emerged from within.

“You’re doomed,” Sun Xitong said with a detached expression. She quickly formed hand seals, and shocking waves of energy radiated from the pool. Vortices began to form, trapping Lin Feng within them.

“Spirit Array Skill! You’re also a Spirit Array Master!” Lin Feng said, slightly astonished.

Sun Xitong proudly declared, “That’s right, I am a Yellow Rank Early Stage High Spirit Array Master. The Spirit Array Skill I’ve condensed is called the Water Vortex Spiritual Array Skill. It forms massive water vortices that imprison those caught within, allowing me to deliver a fatal strike.”

As her words fell, Sun Xitong’s movements became faster, and the vortices in Lin Feng’s hands grew more powerful. He seemed to be immobilized by the colossal Vortex, struggling to move. Sun Xitong’s face displayed an extremely cold expression as she swiftly swam toward Lin Feng. Coming up in front of him, she launched a palm strike at Lin Feng, seizing the opportunity of his entrapment in the vortices to take his life.

But just when Sun Xitong thought she was about to succeed, the vortices imprisoning Lin Feng suddenly shattered. The next moment, Sun Xitong felt threads wrapping around her body. She struggled violently, but the more she struggled, the tighter she found herself bound, unable to move at all.

She screamed in terror, “No, how can this be?”

Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, “I forgot to tell you, I should now be considered a Dark Stage Spiritual Array Master.”

“What? A Dark Stage Spiritual Array Master? How is that possible?” Sun Xitong’s beautiful face turned incredibly pale. If Lin Feng’s words were true, if he were a Dark Stage Spiritual Array Master, then shattering her Spirit Array Skill would be too simple. Sun Xitong stared at Lin Feng in horror, unable to imagine what fate might await her in the hands of this young man.
