Duanmu Yan had exhausted so much effort, killing hundreds of cultivators that came to seize the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water and even fighting a bloody battle with the devils here.
The Skywolf Mercenary Group had also paid a huge price, losing over two hundred people. Only after he had gone all-out did he finally manage to defeat the devils led by the white-haired asura.
Just when he was about to enjoy the fruits of his success, Lin Feng appeared at this moment.
In the end, everything he had paid to obtain the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water was for nothing.
This type of feeling simply drove him mad.
"Haha, this Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water is mine." Lin Feng directly stored the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water into his hoarding ring.
"Fire the arrows and kill him!" Duanmu Yan howled in rage.
The remaining people from the Skywolf Mercenary Group all hurriedly took out their bows and arrows.
Swish, swish, swish~
The arrows formed a dense mass in the sky and blasted toward Lin Feng.
However, Lin Feng swiftly ran into the underground forest and hid behind a huge tree. When all the arrows missed, he sprinted into the depths of the forest and vanished from their sight.
"Pursue him, you guys must catch him for sure. This young master wants to tear him into a thousand pieces!" Duanmu Yan screamed in hysteria.
Now, he and Lin Feng could be considered having old and new hatreds binding them together.
Before this, Lin Feng had killed tens of skywolf knights, but he managed to escape. At that time, Duanmu Yan was already extremely angry. A mere martial student could smoothly escape from the hands of a martial master. This made him feel shame.
And right now, Lin Feng actually seized the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water that should have belonged to him.
Duanmu Yan was now completely crazy.
The mercenaries moved out in full force to search for Lin Feng's location.
But after a dragon submerged into the great ocean, who else could do anything about it?
In a certain remote cave, Lin Feng sat there cross-legged.
He took out the bottle containing the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water and he had a look of joy on his face.
"The Mountain and River Classics has records saying that this was a marvelous heavenly treasure that could refine one's body and increase one's cultivation. I wonder if the information recorded in the Mountain and River Classics are real?" Lin Feng silently mused.
However, he didn't hesitate and directly opened the bottle.
Gurgle~
He consumed the bottle of Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water in three gulps.
RUMBLE~
As the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water entered his body, an unimaginably terrifying power began to erupt within.
This power was simply too violent.
Pu!
Lin Feng directly coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood as fear filled his face.
He could clearly sense the power of the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water wreaking havoc in his body, wanting to explode it.
In truth, Lin Feng didn't know that the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water wasn't meant to be consumed directly. The medicinal potency of this thing was simply too violent, and it was impossible for the bodies of any cultivators to withstand it. One had to use the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water and mixed in other medicinal substances to soothe the violent medicinal potency before they could consume it.
But Lin Feng basically had no understanding of the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water. His only faint bit of understanding came from the 'Mountain and River Classics'. This classic was a collection of myths and legends in the mortal world.
Right now, after Lin Feng had consumed the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water, a terrifying situation appeared as expected.
Lin Feng felt that his body might explode from the overwhelming amount of energy within it now.
At this moment of life and death, Lin Feng depended on his powerful will. He sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art.
"Immemorial Dragon Elephant Dominates the World!"
"ROAR!"
In Lin Feng's Dantian, a faint image of an ancient Dragon Elephant manifested.
This ancient Dragon Elephant had its feet on the ground and its head touching the dome of the heavens. With a giant roar, even time and space shattered.
The violent energy within Lin Feng's body instantly became smooth and gentle.
Lin Feng originally had an agonized expression, but now, it returned to calmness.
The energy of the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water started to be absorbed by Lin Feng's body.
A day later.
RUMBLE~
A terrifying aura gushed out from the cave.
"Haha, I've finally broken through to the tenth-level of the Martial Student Realm!" Lin Feng laughed uproariously.
He left the cave and arrived before a thousand-meters tall mountain.
"Hek!"
Lin Feng roared loudly and punched the mountain.
Rumbling sounds echoed.
The entire mountain began to fragment and collapse with an explosive boom.
A punch!
Just a single punch!
A thousand-meter tall mountain was actually blasted into pieces by Lin Feng!
Joy appeared on Lin Feng's face. After his breakthrough, his strength had reached 128,000 jin. When he activated his three devouring martial souls, his strength could reach a terrifying 384,000 jin.
"The Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water is truly a wondrous item, allowing me to breakthrough directly. Now, I'm getting nearer and nearer to breaking through to the Martial Master Realm." A smile appeared on Lin Feng's face.
He didn't stay here for long and quickly left after that.
Lin Feng didn't leave the subterranean world. He continued heading into the depths.
"ROAR!" All of a sudden, a low-sounding roar rang out.
In the forest, three giant devils that were tens of meters tall suddenly appeared. They had axes in their hands and cleaved them directly toward Lin Feng.
"Subterranean Giant Devils!"
Lin Feng was badly shocked. These devils had low intelligence but immense might. They were the most suitable weapons when used to besiege a city.
During this period, the defenses of many cities in the True Martial Country were broken through by demons and devils. Some of the credit naturally went to these subterranean giant devils who were used to great effect.
These monsters had incomparable strength with their huge bodies. They wielded axes and with a single cleave, they could hack their way through a city wall almost effortlessly.
Facing the attacks of the nearer giant devil, Lin Feng dodged and lightly leaped onto the giant devil's arm. After that, he used the momentum and jumped even higher, achieving a height equal to the giant devil's head.
Bzz~
His sword was unsheathed.
Pu!
Cold light flashed as fresh blood splattered.
Lin Feng's sword directly tore apart the subterranean giant devil's neck.
"ROAR!" It began to howl in agony. After that, its gigantic body fell to the ground and it died completely.
The second and third giant devils also rushed over. Similarly, Lin Feng depended on his agility and movements to spin them in circles.
Although these monsters had boundless strength, their movements were extremely clumsy due to their stature of being too large.
Lin Feng grasped their weakness and continuously dodged their attacks before launching two more sword slashes.
Pu! Pu!
These two slashes directly tore apart the throats of the two giant devils.
Fresh blood splattered everywhere.
The two giant devils slumped onto the ground. Their bodies twitched violently before they breathed their last breath.
Lin Feng walked over and sliced off the left ears of the three giant devils.
This was a requirement of the academy. By collecting the left ears of devils, they could exchange it for contribution points.
After collecting the left ears of the three giant devils, Lin Feng continued heading into the depths of the subterranean world.
During the night, Lin Feng was resting beside a tiny creek. He leaped onto a tree and slept.
…...
Swish, swish, swish...
Very late at night, the sound of air breaking rang out from afar.
Lin Feng was shocked awake.
He could see three balls of light as brilliant as blazing flames rapidly flying over.
"Are they cultivators? How powerful. They could actually fly through the air. Are these experts at the Yin Yang Realm?"
Lin Feng was extremely shocked in his heart. Only experts at the Yin Yang Realm could achieve what all humans dreamt of. They were capable of divine techniques that allowed them to soar through the sky or tunnel through the earth!
