From Sanyang Town to Sealing Magic Gorge is nearly one hundred thousand miles. The speed of the Spirit Beast Car is much faster than that of a Yuan Ying Cultivator flying, and for trained flying spirit beasts, carrying weight while flying is routine. There is no need to rest in between, allowing for continuous operation.
On the second morning, after flying all night, the Spirit Beast Car arrived at its destination.
This place is a mountainous area located a thousand miles into the Beast Wasteland, called No Forward Mountain, meaning that once you reach here, you should not proceed any further; going further would bring great misfortune.
A large number of Spirit Beast Cars stopped at No Forward Mountain and then turned back.
Xu Feng paid the fare and got off the car with Fang Youxin. The Spirit Beast Car let out a light whistle and flew back.
"Senior Fang, let's part ways here."
"…Hmm."
Throughout the journey, the two enjoyed pleasant conversation, but whenever the purpose of this trip was mentioned, Fang Youxin always changed the subject, clearly not wanting Xu Feng to know. Xu Feng also did not ask Fang Youxin what he was doing at Sealing Magic Gorge.
The cultivators who came to Beast Wasteland this time were all here for experience; however, anyone with insight could tell that the sudden influx of so many different sects into Sealing Magic Gorge could not simply be for training purposes.
Fang Youxin avoided discussing Sealing Magic Gorge with Xu Feng out of concern that if their purposes were opposed, it might affect their previous friendship. Since there was such a barrier between them, Xu Feng decided to part ways here. After all, they might still run into each other at Sealing Magic Gorge, and by then it would be clear whether they were friends or foes.
Xu Feng soared through the air into the forest, heading towards Sealing Magic Gorge alone.
No Forward Mountain has already penetrated a thousand miles into Beast Wasteland, and Sealing Magic Gorge is about ten thousand miles away. There are still eight or nine thousand miles to go. At this depth, every step must be taken with caution because the creatures lurking here are at least Golden Core Stage beasts. A moment's carelessness could lead to an attack. With Xu Feng's current strength, he naturally does not fear these Golden Core Stage beasts; however, one must always be cautious.
After flying for a while, four members of Xiaoyao Sect also landed. Guo Ruomin was rolling his eyes trying to find Xu Feng but failed to notice him.
Elder Zhou whispered, "Xu Feng's strength is too weak. If he intends to enter Sealing Magic Gorge, he will definitely have helpers. Keep an eye on them; if they are too weak, we can eliminate them together."
Elder Lu remarked, "Our purpose here is to find the items left by the Demon Clan and keep an eye on the Pingdao Sect. The matter of killing Xu Feng should be put aside; we must not delay the important affairs of the Sect Master."
Huang Changlao said, "This time, we are not the only ones who received the 'Secret Order'; Xu Feng is also one of us."
Guo Ruomin replied, "Impossible. With his level of strength, who would invite him? And what identity does he have?" After saying this, he noticed that the three Elder Ziyi were looking at him disdainfully. He then realized that his strength was even inferior to Xu Feng's and hurriedly lowered his head.
The four from Xiaoyao Sect also flew into the forest, moving quickly.
Numerous Spirit Beast Cars landed, and groups of cultivators disembarked. These cultivators traveled in small clusters, with most coming from the same sect. After getting off the cars, they quickly regrouped and vanished into the forest.
The surrounding demon beasts had not seen so many cultivators appear simultaneously for thousands of years, causing them to flee far away in fear and not daring to approach.
Xu Feng darted through the forest, flying over the treetops. Occasionally, Divine Separation Stage cultivators flew overhead, casting disdainful smiles at him.
There were more than two hundred cultivators who came along this time, mostly Divine Separation Stage Cultivators. Characters like Xu Feng were merely acting as errand runners and support personnel.
After flying for a while in the sky, Xu Feng concealed himself in the woods, allowing branches to cover his head and avoiding others' gaze. He did this solely to prevent the four from Xiaoyao Sect and Qiao Li from discovering him; under normal circumstances, other cultivators would not seek trouble.
Xu Feng took a more circuitous route while others flew in straight lines that did not exceed ten miles. He moved laterally for fifteen miles, significantly reducing his chances of encountering other cultivators and minimizing potential conflicts.
After flying for over an hour toward Sealing Magic Gorge at a breakneck speed of four thousand miles, Xu Feng stopped at a giant tree entwined with an Azure Vine. The vine bore fist-sized fruits known as Shy Fruits. The vine leaves surrounding the fruits would cover them when touched, hiding them away as if shy like a reclusive person; hence they were called Shy Fruits.
Xu Feng didn't care whether it was shy or not; he reached out and plucked one, taking a big bite.
The Azure Vine twisted wildly, attempting to cover the fruit again. However, one fruit detached from the vine and flew toward a nearby tree, landing in the hands of a figure dressed in black.
"Not running away? It's been over a hundred years since we last met. Not only have you improved your cultivation, but you've also become much faster; I almost lost track of you." The man in black bit into the Shy Fruit, crushing the pit with his teeth, eating the fruit without spitting out the core.
Xu Feng remained calm for a moment. This was a cultivator at the Early Stage of Spirit Separation who had followed Xu Feng for thousands of miles without being detected. Even worse, Xu Feng recognized this person, and he wasn't very friendly.
Huo Jinxing, the master of Hua Qian Zhi from Sinking Sand Valley!
This fellow had been the first to attack Xu Feng back in Liuxiang Kingdom. At that time, with just one punch, Xu Feng had completely lost his combat ability. If it hadn't been for the sudden intervention of the Lord of Fragrance, Xu Feng would have lost his life.
If Xu Feng had stayed quietly in Liuxiang Kingdom, it wouldn't have been a problem. However, not only did Xu Feng come to Zheguo, but he also killed several people from Sinking Sand Valley, including Huo Jinxing's sister, Huo Yin Yue.
Huo Jinxing searched extensively and eventually confirmed that Xu Feng was the murderer. However, due to various circumstances, every time he tried to confront Xu Feng, he happened to miss him.
This time luck was on his side; as soon as he arrived in Sanyang Town, he heard Fang Youxin calling out Xu Feng's name. He finally found this murderer. Originally, he planned to wait for an opportunity to strike at Sealing Magic Gorge, but unexpectedly, Xu Feng seemed guilty and ran off alone so far away. Huo Jinxing felt compelled to follow him and kill him.
Huo Jinxing picked another Shy Fruit as if plucking a head from someone's shoulders. He wasn't in a hurry; he enjoyed watching Xu Feng's fearful expression because that brought him satisfaction and relief.
To Huo Jinxing's disappointment, Xu Feng appeared very calm, showing no signs of panic as if death were imminent.
Huo Jinxing sneered and said, "Now in Zheguo, the Lord of Fragrance won't come to save you. Beg me! If you beg me, I'll kill you with one stroke; if you don't beg me, I'll stab you a hundred times."
With a flick of his wrist, Huo Jinxing sent two beams of light from the Shy Fruit towards Xu Feng's knees. He aimed to break Xu Feng's legs so that he would fall to the ground and kneel.
Clang! Xu Feng swung his long knife and knocked down the Shy Fruit. The blade shimmered with light; it was the Supreme Battle Blade that Xu Mo had given him.
Huo Jinxing was momentarily stunned and then coldly remarked, "You've indeed made progress. However, it's going to be extremely difficult for you to survive today." A white light flashed in his hand as he unleashed a crescent-shaped aura aimed directly at Xu Feng's neck.
Years ago, on Wuhua Island, Huo Jinxing used this kind of hand blade attack to kill Xu Feng. Now, he was employing the same technique again, but with even greater power.
This time, Xu Feng did not take it head-on. He leaped away with a push from his feet and turned back to say, "Whether it's difficult or not, you'll know after you kill me."
Xu Feng flew away quickly, but he was still slower than Huo Jinxing. Huo Jinxing snorted coldly and chased after him. Sky plucked a leaf from a tree and waved it, causing the leaf to transform into dozens of flying blades that shot out.
Xu Feng swung his blade again, the fiery red light flashing wildly as he knocked down all the flying leaves. Then he exerted himself and flew further away.
Xu Feng's direction was horizontal, at a right angle to the path leading to Sealing Magic Gorge. Huo Jinxing followed closely behind, and the two engaged in a chase that quickly covered over a hundred miles.
Their battle startled the traveling cultivators. Qiao Li turned back and looked at Xu Feng's retreating figure, gritting his teeth and saying, "You've gotten lucky; you didn't die at my hands."
The four members of Xiaoyao Sect were secretly astonished: "What incredible speed! If it were me, I would probably struggle to catch up." Guo Ruomin's face turned pale; although Xu Feng was being pursued and had lost, his displayed strength was enough to kill him instantly.
Fang Youxin sighed in mid-air. "I have my own mission. I can save you once, but not twice. Coming to Sealing Magic Gorge this time, who knows how many times you'll be on the brink of death? Why bother?"
With Xu Feng in front and Huo Jinxing behind him, Huo continued to unleash crescent-shaped hand blade attacks. Yet each time, Xu Feng managed to block them without showing any signs of strain.
Huo Jinxing grew increasingly alarmed as he fought. Damn it, this is too outrageous; this is not how a Mid-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator should perform. Forget about Mid Stage; even Late Stage cultivators have never been able to last more than three moves against him.
With a flicker of dark light in his hand, Huo Jinxing took out his Supreme Meteor Hammer. "Be grateful; you're the first Yuan Ying who has forced me to use a magical treasure," he said as he swung it down.
Xu Feng blocked with his blade horizontally, but his palm immediately went numb from the impact, nearly causing him to lose grip on his weapon. If it weren't for the dark gold gauntlets on his hands, his wrist might have been shattered. The gap in strength between Xu Feng and Huo Jinxing was simply too vast; once Huo Jinxing activated his Supreme Treasure, Xu Feng found himself at a disadvantage.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Three consecutive strikes sent Xu Feng crashing down from mid-air into the vast forest below.
Huo Jinxing chased closely, wildly swinging the Meteor Hammer. In the forest, neither of their figures could be seen; only large trees were being cut down and sent flying into the sky, crashing back down.
Huo Jinxing was like an immensely powerful giant wolf, carving a path through the forest. Wherever he passed, trees broke and stones shattered, unstoppable. Xu Feng, on the other hand, resembled a frightened sheep, struggling to escape ahead.
Soon, the story of the wolf and the sheep took a dramatic turn.
The sheep suddenly turned its head and counterattacked, but the giant wolf retreated in quick succession, eventually turning into a full-on flight.
Entering the woods and using the trees as cover, Xu Feng successfully blocked Huo Jinxing's three powerful strikes. After that, he took out Diablo, which had been upgraded to a Superior Magical Artifact, and shot three arrows in retaliation.
The power of Dark Destroyer was immense; the trees in the forest were like nothing. Each arrow pierced through easily. Huo Jinxing's Meteor Hammer was a soft magical artifact and was not suitable for blocking arrows. Without any shield-type magical artifacts on him, he became flustered as he was shot at.
It wasn't until an arrow flew past Huo Jinxing's armpit that he finally put aside his pride and turned to flee; if he didn't run now, it would be over for him.
Huo Jinxing could never have imagined that he would be chased through the streets by a Yuan Ying Cultivator.
