# Chapter 614: Coming Together to Kill

Tang Youyou fell silent, her gaze fixed on Lin Feng. Asking her to help Lin Feng meant she would be giving up this rare opportunity for herself, allowing Lin Feng to succeed.

"Why should I help you, and not you help me?" Tang Youyou's eyes stared at Lin Feng. Her cultivation was stronger than his; if she obtained a powerful divine ability, wouldn't she become even stronger?

"There's no reason why. It's just that between the two of us, one must make a concession. If not me, then you—otherwise, nothing can be accomplished. And I crave strength more than you do. So call me selfish if you want, but the one making concessions won't be me. However, if you help me, I'm willing to give you two Rejuvenation Pills as compensation. At any time, they can restore your true essence power to its peak state. I believe you need such pills."

Lin Feng's gaze was resolute. His cultivation was indeed rather weak. If he couldn't seize the opportunity in the Fallen Demon Domain, it would be difficult to close the gap with those top geniuses—it might even widen. In the Fallen Demon Domain, several people already had six or seven starlight points, likely those eight most formidable geniuses.

Moreover, those with three or four starlight points were becoming fewer and fewer. Lin Feng fully believed they might have been hunted by stronger individuals, their cultivation seeds taken.

If Lin Feng didn't grow stronger, those watching him might come to hunt him down at any moment.

"Rejuvenation Pills!" Tang Youyou's gaze sharpened. Lin Feng actually had such precious items—able to restore all true essence power. This kind of pill was extremely useful, especially in the decisive battles of the Snow Domain Grand Competition. When both sides were evenly matched, a single Rejuvenation Pill could even determine victory or defeat.

After a moment of silence, Tang Youyou looked at Lin Feng and said, "What do you want me to do?"

Hearing Tang Youyou's question, Lin Feng revealed a slight smile. Her asking this clearly meant she had agreed.

Taking out two Rejuvenation Pills, Lin Feng directly handed them to Tang Youyou, causing her gaze to freeze.

"Aren't you afraid I'll go back on my word after getting the pills?"

"Given the help you've already given me, it's worth more than these two pills. This isn't really compensation—just gratitude. Even if you do go back on your word, I won't blame you." A clean smile appeared in Lin Feng's eyes again. Tang Youyou's bright black eyes stared at him for a moment, then she took the Rejuvenation Pills and put them away without ceremony.

Lin Feng was a very interesting person.

"There are two people on this mountain—one with three starlight points, one with one. Let's go hunt the one with three points first."

Lin Feng said to Tang Youyou. Seeing her nod, Lin Feng stepped forward and headed up the mountain.

In the Fallen Demon Domain, although everyone's cultivation was suppressed to the First Layer of Profound Martial Realm, relying on their control of true essence, people could still manage brief flight. However, almost no one dared to fly here. If intercepted in the air and their true essence depleted, they would have no way out. No one recklessly used their true essence power.

Lin Feng rushed toward the figure on the mountain, moving quickly. The person with the starlight seemed to sense Lin Feng's approach, lifted his foot, and appeared unwilling to fight—instead choosing to circle away.

Lin Feng quickened his pace, suddenly sprinting to close in on the man. The man also sped up his evasive movements. At the same First Layer of Profound Martial Realm, with enough distance, catching someone wasn't easy. That was why in the Fallen Demon Domain, those with many cultivation seeds found it difficult to hunt others—people would simply flee when they saw you coming, or even hide in the temples. The hunters couldn't afford to waste time.

A resolute look appeared at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth. He stomped the ground, true essence power roaring, and his body soared into the air, shooting forward through the sky.

On the rugged mountain paths, taking detours obviously affected speed. Lin Feng, stepping through the air, could catch up to someone easily. Soon, he saw the gray figure.

"A person from the Tian Feng Kingdom."

Seeing this man, a cold smile appeared on Lin Feng's face. This man was none other than one of the Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind.

The man looked up at Lin Feng in the void, his gaze sharpening. He clearly recognized Lin Feng too—it was actually this guy. And Lin Feng even had five starlight points now.

"Weren't you people from the Tian Feng Kingdom the first to want to kill me? Why are you running away so pathetically?" Lin Feng said loudly, landing on the ground. The man's eyes were like a wolf's, fixed intently on him.

His fists trembled, turning golden—a dazzling gold, radiating an extremely hard and tough aura.

Stepping forward, the Tian Feng Kingdom man charged at Lin Feng with golden fists. One punch shot out, the fist carrying a Buddhist aura. Unfortunately, the man's body exuded a sinister, gloomy aura, while his fist intent had Buddhist energy—a jarring mismatch, quite strange.

Cold light flickered. Lin Feng's sword left its sheath, fast as lightning, stabbing directly at the man's fist. The golden fist was as hard as diamond, as if not made of flesh, actually bending Lin Feng's sword.

"Clang!"

The curved sword let out a soft ring. Lin Feng's body was knocked back, and a cold smile immediately appeared on the man's face.

"So this is all the strength you have."

He had used all three of his cultivation seeds to exchange for a powerful technique—the Golden Body Buddha Art. Although he hadn't trained long, he had already achieved some mastery. In time, he could transform into a Golden Body Buddha, indestructible. That was why he no longer sought to kill enemies and hunt more starlight—he only wanted self-preservation. So he stayed on this mountain. Having luckily killed two people and obtained this technique, he felt it was enough.

He hadn't expected Lin Feng to target him, even consuming true essence power to fly after him.

"That's why I say you're as timid as a mouse. I only used one cultivation seed, yet you saw me and only thought of running. People from the Tian Feng Kingdom—all talk and no action, shrinking back without any courage. Just like those Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind I killed in Snow Moon—a bunch of trash."

Lin Feng calmly uttered these words, causing the man's pupils to contract. Lin Feng had killed the Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind before?

"You are... Lin Feng!"

"That's right, I'm Lin Feng. That night, your Tian Feng Kingdom sent so many experts to kill me, but not one returned. Yet I'm still alive and well."

Lin Feng's mouth held a hint of mockery. The man's killing intent began to spread. This Lin Feng was actually the same Lin Feng from before! How hateful—they had been deceived by his appearance.

"You didn't die? Then I'll kill you again now."

The Tian Feng Kingdom man stepped forward, both arms turning into dazzling gold, radiating an indestructible aura.

Lin Feng's sword moved like a venomous dragon, constantly tapping against the man's hands, but to no effect. His sword couldn't break through the golden body on the man's arms.

"No wonder he's hiding on this mountain—this Golden Body technique has already satisfied him."

The Tian Feng Kingdom man clasped his hands together, tightly gripping Lin Feng's sword. A cold smile appeared at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth. The sword spun, turning into a phantom, instantly slipping through the gap between the man's palms and reaching his throat, aiming for a fatal strike.

"Golden Body Buddha!"

The man's expression changed. He let out a low shout, his entire body bathed in golden light, transforming into a Golden Body Buddha. But the golden body wasn't solid enough, and combined with the man's mismatched temperament, it looked awkward and out of place.

"Who?"

At that moment, the Tian Feng Kingdom man was startled. He turned his head and saw a figure stepping through the air—a graceful silhouette drifting down. Her palms directly imprinted onto his golden body. A cracking sound rang out, and the gold shattered with the impact.

"Chi..."

The golden body shattered. Lin Feng's sword pierced through the throat, causing the man's body to tremble violently. The golden body completely collapsed, and disbelief appeared in his eyes.

"Die."

Lin Feng twisted his sword, and the man died instantly. Three starlight points drifted into Lin Feng's brow. Now, Lin Feng had eight starlight points—seven usable cultivation seeds.

"Thank you."

A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth. But Tang Youyou still wore that cold, beautiful face. She pointed down the mountain and said, "Don't celebrate too early."

Lin Feng turned his gaze and saw many starlight figures stepping onto the mountain from below. Having been targeted by those with ill intentions long ago, now that he had eight starlight points, how could he not attract the covetous eyes of the crowd?

"Let's go." Seeing so many people coming up the mountain one after another, Lin Feng continued running toward the higher peaks. Tang Youyou followed Lin Feng, both of them heading for the mountain's summit.
