Five Element Needle Technique silently surrounded Wu Yuchun, with one needle in front, one behind, one on each side, and another above. By the time Wu Yuchun realized it, his space had been completely locked down.
"This is... this is Mu Yingshan's Five Element Needle Technique! Wait, it doesn’t look quite right?" Wu Yuchun finally recognized the danger of his situation and immediately identified the origins of the Five Element Needle Technique.
A cold laugh responded to him.
"Flower Rain!"
With a thought, Xu Fengxin activated the Five Element Needle Technique, which emitted a buzzing sound as it shot toward him from five different directions. The dazzling needle lights surged with spiritual energy and displayed five different colors.
Wu Yuchun widened his eyes in disbelief, and Zhenzhong hurriedly moved back in front of him.
Clang! Clang! Clang! The massive Zhenzhong barely blocked three of the Five Element Needles. It let out a low wail as three Golden Needles struck it, causing the bell to shake violently, displaying immense pain.
The other two Golden Needles predictably hit Wu Yuchun, one in his shoulder and the other in his leg.
The Five Element Needle Technique, re-refined by Xu Feng, had returned to the state of a Superior Magical Artifact, while Zhenzhong was merely an Inferior Magical Artifact. With two tiers lower in quality, after being struck by three Golden Needles, its spiritual energy had significantly diminished. Originally slow, the speed of Zhenzhong was now even slower.
Wu Yuchun gritted his teeth and urged Zhenzhong, but he could not withstand the attacks from the Five Element Needle Technique. Under Xu Feng's control, the technique changed direction at will, flying in arcs and curves.
Puff! Puff! Puff! Three more needles pierced through Wu Yuchun's body. He collapsed onto the ground, and due to the loss of spiritual energy, Zhenzhong shrank down to the size of a fist and rolled beside him.
"Friend, friend," Wu Yuchun saw that all hope was lost and began to plead for mercy. "I was blind and did not recognize your greatness. Please spare me; this Zhenzhong is yours. Your Liuxiang Kingdom lacks magical artifacts; with this Zhenzhong, you can compete with all the Major Sects!"
"Oh?" Xu Feng's eyes lit up as he said, "That’s not a bad idea. Hmm, why were you chasing me?"
Wu Yuchun replied, "I came specifically to deliver magical artifacts to you. The moment I saw you, I felt an extraordinary connection." Blushing, he continued reluctantly, "I wanted to borrow your pair of wings for a bit."
"That's just a Superior Spirit Tool. Can you really take a liking to it? Not being honest will lead to trouble." The Five Element Needle Technique buzzed in the Sky, ready to strike at any moment.
Wu Yuchun was already severely injured and could hardly withstand Xu Feng's intimidation. In a moment of panic, he spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "Your wings are quite special; they can be refined into high-level magical treasures. However, your Liuxiang Kingdom lacks the Artifact Sect for such refinement. If you don't mind, I can help you with that."
"Mm," Xu Feng stroked his chin in thought and replied, "In addition to Zhenzhong and refining magical treasures, I need one more thing from you; otherwise, I won't feel at ease."
Seeing a glimmer of hope, Wu Yuchun hurriedly said, "Please tell me. Our Zheguo is vast and rich; we can certainly meet your needs. There's nothing we can't do, only things we haven't thought of. What do you want?"
"I want your life!" The Five Element Needle Technique suddenly shot out. Before Wu Yuchun could react, his head was pierced and exploded. His legs kicked weakly before he fell still.
Xu Feng had spent so much time giving Wu Yuchun a glimmer of hope just to prevent him from self-destructing his Golden Core. Once Wu Yuchun's guard was down, Xu Feng struck suddenly and killed him in one blow.
Xu Feng quickly collected Zhenzhong, set Wu Yuchun ablaze, took his storage bag, and released his Flying Sword, speeding towards the New Moon Sect.
In the distance, Zhou Zhuan's expression changed as he sensed Wu Yuchun's unfortunate fate. He looked up to see a black dot flying farther away, making it difficult to catch up.
Xu Feng flew over a hundred miles before stopping. Ahead lay the New Moon Sect's base where elites from various factions gathered; Zhou Zhuan would not dare to pursue him there.
Finding an uninhabited mountainside, Xu Feng opened Wu Yuchun's storage bag and quickly scanned its contents. He soon found a Martial Arts Manual detailing the cultivation method for Zhenzhong.
The refinement of magical treasures is complex; each treasure requires corresponding ritual methods for its formation. Without the appropriate rituals, one must rely on trial and error, which takes considerable time.
The ritual methods are actually straightforward. Xu Feng carefully reviewed them and quickly grasped the concepts.
After the battle at Nine Dragon Pool, Xu Feng urgently needed to increase the number of magical treasures he possessed. The cultivators of Liuxiang Kingdom were not weak; they lost primarily due to their equipment. A Golden Core Mid-Stage Wu Yuchun could deter Xu Feng's group with just one Zhenzhong while causing casualties.
No matter how powerful a spirit weapon is, it cannot exceed double the user's attack power. However, magical treasures are different; as long as their grade is high enough, they can unleash several times or even dozens of times the attack power.
Xu Feng's Five Element Needle Technique is equivalent to five times the attack power, but currently, Xu Feng's cultivation level is insufficient to fully unleash the potential of the Five Element Needle Technique. In terms of single attack power, the current Five Element Needle Technique is still inferior to Zhenzhong.
The strength of the Five Element Needle Technique lies in its speed, while Zhenzhong excels in power. Even a cultivator at the Late Stage of Golden Core would die on the spot if struck by Zhenzhong without any protective magical artifacts.
Xu Feng needs a "Heavy Fist."
With previous experience in refining the Five Element Needle Technique, this time the refinement of Zhenzhong went much faster. Zhenzhong is a magical artifact specifically designed for Earth Element cultivators, possessing immense strength and strong defensive capabilities. If it weren't for encountering a Superior Magical Artifact like the Five Element Needle Technique, similar-grade artifacts would be unable to contend with it.
Xu Feng practices Five Elements Cultivation and is currently refining Zhenzhong of the Earth Element, which is naturally quite simple.
In less than two hours, Zhenzhong was completely mastered by Xu Feng. There was no significant damage to Zhenzhong; only its Spiritual energy was weakened due to attacks. Under the nurturing of Xu Feng's Five Elements Power, it quickly recovered.
However, Xu Feng did not conceal Zhenzhong within his body but placed it in his Spatial Ring for easy access during combat. He kept the Five Element Needle Technique ready within him, as it is a complementary artifact more suitable for Xu Feng's refinement.
With a loud "boom," Xu Feng unleashed Zhenzhong, smashing a protruding rock into pieces. This rock was a prominent point on the mountainside, about two or three zhang in size, yet it was easily shattered by Zhenzhong.
Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction, fully aware of Zhenzhong's attack power. With both the Five Element Needle Technique and Zhenzhong as his artifacts, he would have a fighting chance even against Zhou Zhuan, who possesses the Golden Serpent Treasure.
According to Wu Yuchun, Wings of the Strange Dragon can be refined into high-level artifacts; however, Liuxiang Kingdom lacks an Artifact Sect for such refinement. It seems that if given the opportunity, Xu Feng must visit Zheguo. Zheguo is a Cultivation Holy Land where powerful cultivators are as numerous as fish in water; only there can Xu Feng's Five Elements Technique be fully utilized.
Having traveled six or seven hundred miles from the ambush site, Xu Feng turned his Flying Sword around and resolutely flew back along the original route.
Along the way, he did not encounter scattered fleeing cultivators; the situation was not as dire as Xu Feng had imagined. Not every group was as vulnerable as his own.
Xu Feng had trained at Xiyue Peak for several days and received considerable guidance from Qiu Wuling, significantly improving his strength. He flew seven hundred miles in less than twenty minutes. Stopping five miles away, Xu Feng swallowed a Super Concentration Pill to quickly recover his spiritual energy.
Five miles is not far, and with few obstacles in between, Xu Feng could clearly see the situation in the battlefield.
The Dragon Slayer Group from the Top Ten Factions had gathered at some point, and the members of the Nine Dragon Pool had also come together, transforming their individual battles into a collective confrontation.
The Nine Dragon Pool was not foolish; they had already guessed the intentions of the Ten Factions upon seeing their deployment. However, both sides made the same mistake: underestimating each other while overestimating themselves.
The Nine Dragon Pool believed in their overwhelming strength, thinking that no matter how you played your tricks, they would be useless against them. With just one magical artifact, they could easily wipe out their opponents. The Ten Factions, on the other hand, thought that even if the Nine Dragon Pool was strong, they were still human. They believed that with five times their number, they could exhaust and defeat them.
In the end, the magical artifacts of the Nine Dragon Pool proved unexpectedly powerful, leaving the Ten Factions without a chance to retaliate. However, in a moment of crisis, the Ten Factions invented a human bomb tactic; some reckless cultivators self-destructed their Golden Cores, which surprisingly yielded excellent results.
A great war ensued between both sides, resulting in casualties on both ends. The Nine Dragon Pool was reduced to just eleven members, while the Top Ten Factions had fewer than fifty left. The Nine Dragon Pool had just arrived in Liuxiang Kingdom and lacked backup forces; continuing this way was disadvantageous for them. Although the Ten Factions held the advantage of terrain and numbers, those willing to act as "human bombs" were limited.
Both sides seemed to have reached an unspoken agreement to pause, standing ten zhang apart with swords drawn but no one willing to strike again. The injured cultivators focused on healing while the deceased were promptly collected.
What began as a covert assassination turned into an open battlefield.
Xu Feng assessed the situation on the battlefield.
Ten minutes later, Xu Feng let out a long howl. This time, he did not use his Flying Sword but instead unfurled his dark Wings of the Strange Dragon and glided over like a fighter jet.
This was Xu Feng's first time using the Wings of the Strange Dragon in front of everyone. His enormous wings cast a triangular shadow as he took off from five miles away, soaring upward before angling down with the wind. The wings adjusted direction gracefully yet powerfully.
Xu Feng made a striking entrance; both the cultivators from Nine Dragon Pool and Top Ten Factions were drawn by his howl. They then witnessed Xu Feng making a grand appearance with his impressive Wings of the Strange Dragon, soaring down like a phoenix dancing through the skies.
The passage where both sides faced off was nearly fifty meters long. Xu Feng landed at one end of it, retracting his Wings of the Strange Dragon to reveal his handsome yet wild features. Dressed in a black Daoist robe that fluttered in the wind, he looked exceptionally dashing.
"It’s Xu Feng from New Moon Sect! I can’t believe he’s finally returned after ten years."
"New Moon Sect hunted him down back then; how could he possibly return there?"
"You don't understand anything; that's just a feigned injury tactic. Look, now he's impressive, right?"
"What does his impressiveness have to do with a feigned injury tactic? I think the New Moon Sect just picked up a ready-made treasure."
"Yeah, the New Moon Sect really found a treasure. So what does it have to do with you?"
Xu Feng walked from the left side of the passage toward the center, ignoring the discussions of the Ten Factions cultivators. He only kept an eye on the people from the Nine Dragon Pool, in case they launched a surprise attack.
He walked step by step, like a general inspecting his soldiers.
Zhou Zhuan's face turned pale with anger. This junior in the Early Stage of Golden Core had just been beaten into submission by him, and now he came here to show off, really thinking of himself as a Yuan Ying Cultivator.
Could it be that Wu Yuchun was really killed by him? Did he kill Wu Yuchun all by himself? Zhou Zhuan kept pondering the same question over and over.
If that were true, it wouldn't be something to scoff at. Zhou Zhuan's expression became serious.
