# Chapter 1223: Heartless Moon
The venerable masters of Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress fought with trembling hearts. In the span of a few breaths, five of them had been slain in succession, giving them a crisis-like feeling of hanging by a thread. He could actually perform spatial teleportation—though the distance was short, in a battle between experts, even a single step could determine life and death.
"Sever his divine sense!" At this moment, the Third Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm expert from Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress spoke with an icy tone, his voice piercing to the bone. As his words fell, it seemed as though a demon dragon emerged from between his brows, fangs bared, lunging straight toward Lin Feng's brow. If they tore apart Lin Feng's divine sense, Lin Feng would surely die.
The other venerable masters all released their terrifying divine sense power as well. Golden light filled the sky as golden demon dragons pounced at Lin Feng. Many of the experts from Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress cultivated the same method of tempering divine sense—their divine sense was like demon dragons, coiling within their divine seas. When the furious dragons emerged from the sea, they roared and severed a person's divine sense.
Everyone's hearts trembled. These venerable masters each had divine sense like dragons, using this extremely dangerous method to sever Lin Feng's divine sense.
"Void Demon Art!" Lin Feng's gaze suddenly became extremely demonic, incredibly handsome, his long hair flying wildly. The sacred immortal aura of Linglong radiated outward furiously. The Void Demon Art merged with his Space Essence power, instantly becoming extremely stable. Rumbling sounds echoed continuously. Those divine sense demon dragons were as fast as lightning, yet they crashed against the Void Demon Art, unable to break through and sever Lin Feng.
Light flickered as the Setting Sun Bow appeared. Now, Lin Feng held the Setting Sun Bow in his hand. The bowstring hummed, and it seemed as though rounds of suns were appearing, about to be shot down.
His palm rested on the bowstring. He pulled back fiercely, and an arrow materialized. Space Essence was attached to it, instantly strengthening its tearing power. Wind Essence was imbued upon it, and a fierce gale began to howl. Primordial Power was attached to it, infusing the Setting Sun arrow with destructive might. Lightning Essence appeared, and purple light pierced the heavens.
Eight arrows, dazzling and brilliant. When the Void Demon Art collapsed, a cold, sharp light bloomed in Lin Feng's eyes. At almost the same moment, the expressions of those venerable masters trembled violently. Their divine sense sensed a terrifying crisis, as though they were about to be pierced through.
"Return!" They shouted in unison. The divine sense demon dragons turned back in an instant, but Lin Feng's arrows were also released at the same time. Space rippled, and destruction came in an instant. These divine senses were only a few steps away from Lin Feng. Having just broken through the Void Demon Art, how could they escape? Crackling sounds of explosion rang out. The eyes of those experts suddenly dimmed. Their divine sense shattered, and the Setting Sun arrows pierced all the way into their brows, penetrating their divine seas. Eight people—all shot dead by a single arrow.
That Third Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm expert also fell beneath this arrow.
The distant crowd trembled with fear. Over a dozen venerable masters had all fallen here. These people were all venerable masters of Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress. Even in the Eight Wastelands Realm, they held a place of their own. Being called venerable was a symbol of strength. Yet in an instant, they had all been slain here by the young man before them.
"Although the power of divine sense can kill without form, it is extremely dangerous. Once divine sense is released, life and death are decided in a single breath. Without absolute certainty, one must never use divine sense to fight." The crowd shuddered inwardly. Seeing what had just happened, they engraved this lesson in their hearts. If one's divine sense was caught and erased by an opponent, death was certain. If those eight experts hadn't used divine sense power, they could still have fought Lin Feng. But they had been so simply wiped out.
"That bow and arrow must be a high-grade sacred artifact. And how many types of Essence power were fused into those arrows?" Someone exclaimed in admiration. How many types of Essence did Lin Feng control?
"I heard the roar of the wind, felt the fluctuation of space. The lightning light is still flickering in the void, and there's also a terrifying power of annihilation. This single arrow contains four types of Essence power."
One person controlling four types of Essence power could already be called a Four-Absolute, a prodigy-level figure. Lin Feng could definitely be called a prodigy. He had defeated the Heavenly Dragon Divine Body, Long Teng, and now slain over a dozen venerable masters of Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress in a single battle. And Lin Feng's cultivation was only at the Eighth Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm.
Of course, those over a dozen venerable masters of Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress died somewhat unjustly. They had just intercepted Lin Feng and launched probing attacks when Lin Feng used Void Teleportation Art along with flame and sword techniques to slay five of them in succession. Then they used divine sense techniques and had all their divine sense wiped out. They hadn't even had a chance to display their full combat power before being completely slain. What a pity—it should have been a fierce battle between dragons and tigers.
At this moment, Lin Feng put away the flames and the Nine Heavens Azure Dragon Cauldron, then collected the spoils of war, taking all their storage rings. The belongings of over a dozen venerable masters—if thrown into Snow Moon Kingdom, it would make the entire Snow Moon Kingdom tremble. The divine abilities contained within were probably things the people of Snow Moon Kingdom wouldn't even dare to imagine.
"This matter is settled. It's time to return to Snow Moon for a visit, then go to Heavenly Lake to have a look." Lin Feng murmured to himself. After years of wandering outside, there was always a faint thread of concern (qian gua) in his heart.
After collecting the spoils, Lin Feng continued forward. His steps seemed slow, but in an instant, he had disappeared from everyone's sight.
Walking through Tianxu Ancient City, Lin Feng occasionally inquired about Qiu Yuexin. Now, Qiu Yuexin seemed to be very famous in this Tianxu Ancient City. Many people paid attention to her whereabouts. After all, the fact that she had pursued Bai Qiuluo from the Western Wasteland all the way to the Central Wasteland was already known to everyone. Thus, Lin Feng easily found out where Qiu Yuexin's trail had led.
Increasing his speed, Lin Feng flashed in the direction he had learned. After half an hour, he noticed many people gathering toward a certain direction, as though something major was happening.
"Old sir, where are you all heading?" Lin Feng's figure flickered as he caught up to a passerby at the Heavenly Martial Realm and asked.
"What speed!" The old man exclaimed in admiration. Lin Feng had appeared like the wind just now, and he hadn't even sensed it.
"Many experts are hunting Qiu Yuexin. We're going to take a look." The old man replied. As his words fell, he felt the wind howl. When he looked again, Lin Feng had already disappeared before his eyes. Looking in the direction Lin Feng had vanished, there was no one—not even a shadow could be seen.
"What a terrifying young expert!" The old man gazed at the disappearing figure, marveling inwardly.
Lin Feng headed in the direction the crowd was going. Soon, he saw surging waves in the distant void. An icy, destructive pressure spread into the distance. Palaces and the earth continuously cracked and collapsed.
The crowd watched from afar, observing the young, beautiful woman battling numerous experts. They all felt their mouths go dry. How terrifying! The ground was covered with corpses, many of them venerable masters.
"I didn't expect that the Qiu Clan of the Northern Wasteland had produced a prodigy expert, and a beautiful woman who had only recently risen to prominence. Such a cold aura, a heartless Essence, making people's hearts turn cold."
Lin Feng saw that there were still over a dozen experts in the void, all without exception venerable masters, surrounding Qiu Yuexin. Their strength was terrifying.
At this moment, Qiu Yuexin was drenched in blood, but her gaze was cold to the marrow. A heartless intent filled her, as though heaven and earth were heartless, leaving only slaughter and destruction.
"Demon Moon!"
At this moment, the crowd saw a dazzling radiance bloom from within Qiu Yuexin's body, as though a demon moon was rising, ascending into the void, transforming into rounds of desolate, cold moons, carrying a heartless realm.
The moon was cold, the moonlight was icy, shining down on those people.
"This is Qiu Yuexin's martial soul, fused into her bloodline. How terrifying! After transforming into a bloodline, it seems even the martial soul has sublimated." The crowd was shaken by this sight. Rounds of demon moons rose into the sky simultaneously, shining on everyone. Those people's bodies seemed to freeze, turning stiff, as though they felt an endless, bitter cold.
"Demon Moon Slash!" A cold voice emerged from Qiu Yuexin's mouth. Those moons hanging in the void transformed into killing moon slashes, reflecting onto those experts. Immediately, their bodies were torn apart. Screams rang out continuously. Those at the First Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm were killed instantly. Even those at the Second Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm could barely withstand it—it was too terrifying.
"Shiiing..." In the void, a sword light flashed instantly, stabbing straight toward the top of Qiu Yuexin's head, aiming to take her life.
"Emperor-Slaying Alliance!" Lin Feng's expression turned cold. Seeing that those who hadn't died also moved, all attacking Qiu Yuexin, his body shot out instantly. The Setting Sun Bow appeared in his hand, and a destructive arrow materialized, locking onto the auras of those people.
The crowd saw a demon moon rise slowly above Qiu Yuexin's head. The killing sword stabbed into the demon moon's light, seeming to freeze. Then, the entire body was enveloped by the demon moon. The crowd seemed to see a true moon, a desolate, cold moon. That person sank into the moon.
"Moon Execution!" A cold sound emerged from Qiu Yuexin's mouth. The moon shattered, and blood splattered everywhere. The assassin collapsed and died along with the moon.
The others charged at Qiu Yuexin, but almost at the same time, Lin Feng's Setting Sun arrows appeared. They immediately changed targets, striking at the Setting Sun arrows. Unable to withstand the terrifying attack, they were blasted backward.
Just as they were blocking the Setting Sun arrows, the heartless moon slashes appeared again. Light bloomed, and the heartless moon slashes harvested their lives, a shocking sight.
"What terrifying combat power. No wonder she chased one of the Ten Great Prodigies, Bai Qiuluo, until he had no way to escape even to the heavens." The crowd sighed with emotion, speechless with shock.
Even Lin Feng was deeply shaken. A terrifying bloodline martial soul, terrifying offensive killing techniques, and they were coordinated so perfectly, as though the power of the bloodline martial soul and her attacks were originally one. Why had Qiu Yuexin suddenly become so terrifying? Could this transformation be the awakening of a shocking physique?
Furthermore, if all this was Bai Qiuluo's doing, Lin Feng was somewhat worried. This trip to Tianxu Ancient City would probably not be easy. How much power could Bai Qiuluo mobilize? Two Third Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm experts had already appeared. Could Bai Qiuluo mobilize mid-rank venerable masters?
And also, now that Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress knew of his whereabouts, would mid-rank venerable masters personally come to hunt him? At the level of mid-rank venerable masters, they were not so easily restrained. They acted according to their will, pursuing higher realms. The ascetic senior brother Tian Chi was a Fourth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm expert, but his combat power was even stronger, far surpassing ordinary Fourth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm cultivators!
