# Chapter 745: Demon Intent Released
Lin Feng stood with his back to the sable-clad youth, his black robe fluttering, creating a stark contrast with the snow-white aura seeping from the Heavenly Lake. The Heavenly Lake Snow Mountain was cold with the chill of snow, while Lin Feng was cold with the chill of indifference.
"Get lost on your own." A voice emerged from Lin Feng's mouth. Just moments ago, that cold heart of his had wanted to kill the other party with a single sword strike, but at the final moment, his heart had struggled. He ultimately chose mercy and did not kill him.
The sable-clad youth was very clear about this. At that moment, he had clearly felt how close death was to him. With just a single thought from Lin Feng, he would already be a dead man now.
With a step, the youth directly stepped down from the Heavenly Lake and chose to leave.
The crowd all stared at Lin Feng, their hearts shaken. One sword strike—Lin Feng dealt with the sable-clad youth the same way, needing only one sword.
Even many of the powerful experts at the Eighth Layer of Profound Martial Realm had not clearly seen that sword strike. They only felt the terror of that sword—it was as if the entire person had transformed into a sword, the person completely united with the sword.
Lin Feng had definitely reached the realm of Unity of Heaven and Man. He had already satisfied an important foundation for stepping into the Heavenly Martial Realm.
If one day, when he reached the peak of the Profound Martial Realm, an opportunity came, his mind free of distractions, able to completely cast aside everything and thoroughly merge with heaven and earth—that would be the Heavenly Martial Realm.
Unity of Heaven and Man had obstructed many people's dreams of the Heavenly Martial Realm.
"This person is not easy to deal with. Unless it's a very powerful Ninth Layer of Profound Martial Realm expert, no one can handle him. His Sword Dao Will should also have reached the third level."
Lin Feng thought to himself. No one else stepped forward to challenge Lin Feng to a solo battle. It was too dangerous—they might be directly eliminated by Lin Feng.
"Interesting." At this moment, a young man carrying an ancient sword on his back spoke softly with a smile. This person was dressed entirely in white, as white as snow. Standing there, he seemed to merge with the snow between heaven and earth. Even his three thousand strands of troublesome hair were also white—the white of snow. From top to bottom, pure white, snow white.
"Baili Xi!"
The crowd's gaze fell upon this youth who was as pure as snow, their eyes flickering uncertainly. If Baili Xi made a move, he could certainly deal with Lin Feng. However, given Baili Xi's reputation, it was impossible for him to make a move against Lin Feng. Baili Xi, who had comprehended both Snow Will and Sword Will, was at the Ninth Layer of Profound Martial Realm. His strength was terrifying, and he was one of the outstanding young talents of the Heavenly Lake Empire. Many people knew him.
Among the eight seats this time, Baili Xi's name should also appear.
Besides Baili Xi, there were several others from the Heavenly Lake Empire who were considered certain to enter these eight seats. For example, the Jade-Faced Scholar Han Qiuyu. This person also used a sword, but he was not a sword cultivator. His martial soul was also extremely unique—it was a rare variant martial soul, the Book Martial Soul. It was said that many Confucian classics were recorded within his Book Martial Soul. Within the book, there was its own world. He controlled many powerful abilities and was very formidable. Few were his match.
However, Han Qiuyu had a gentle temperament and generally did not fight with others. He was like an honest scholar and had not shown any admiration for Heavenly Lake Snow, so it was impossible for him to deal with Lin Feng either.
Besides Heavenly Lake Snow, Baili Xi, and Han Qiuyu, there was a pair of twin siblings, Bitter Fall Yellow Springs. Their strength was very formidable, and when they joined forces, they were even more terrifying.
These five people were all at the Ninth Layer of Profound Martial Realm and were considered by the crowd to be the best candidates for entering the secret realm.
There was also a sixth person, named Qian Yezhen. This person's cultivation was not as good as the previous five—only at the Eighth Layer of Profound Martial Realm—but what he specialized in was actually extremely fine needles. His martial soul was also a needle, extremely rare. He killed without drawing blood and was very dangerous. He was also favored by the crowd.
Moreover, this person had feelings of admiration for Heavenly Lake Snow. Therefore, he was seen as the most likely person to deal with Lin Feng and Huangfu Long.
Besides these six people, others might not have as great a reputation and would have to compete for the remaining two seats. Of course, a powerful existence might also appear who could drive those six people down from the Heavenly Lake.
"Lin Feng has already attracted Baili Xi's attention. I wonder if Qian Yezhen will make a move against Lin Feng." The crowd's gaze slowly turned, landing on a thin young man with a somewhat indifferent temperament on his face. He had a pointed face, and his indifferent demeanor carried a dangerous aura. This person was Qian Yezhen.
However, Qian Yezhen seemed not to notice the crowd's gaze. He showed no reaction. His calm eyes gave no information to others.
"Perhaps this person might become one of the eight seats." The crowd below looked up at the many powerful experts above the Heavenly Lake, their eyes filled with a hint of anticipation. This dark horse that had suddenly emerged could kill a Ninth Layer of Profound Martial Realm expert with a single sword strike. He might very well advance and enter the secret realm together with Heavenly Lake Snow.
The faces of those who had been clamoring to deal with Lin Feng earlier did not look good. They exchanged glances. Not long ago, they had been shouting very fiercely. Now, facing Lin Feng's shocking strength, they all fell silent, not knowing what to do.
"Let's all attack together. No matter how powerful he is, we only need one attack to blast him to death. I don't believe he can dodge it." Someone suddenly spoke coldly. This person's face carried a somewhat gloomy aura. He found that Lin Feng's threat was too great. Even if it wasn't because of his humiliation of Heavenly Lake Snow earlier, he should be eliminated first.
At this moment, Lin Feng's cultivation had already aroused jealousy among the crowd. They wanted to eliminate him, and some even harbored killing intent.
Lin Feng's body suddenly turned around. His cold, sharp gaze locked onto the person who had just spoken. Join hands to kill him?
In that instant, the cold indifference in Lin Feng's heart surged out again. Whoever wanted to kill him must die. The trace of pity that had just arisen was completely obliterated by the other party's words of killing intent.
Lin Feng, troubled by the demon sword, was very unstable. The other party's words were undoubtedly stirring the demonic fire within Lin Feng's body.
"Yes, let's all attack together. One strike is enough to kill him."
"Yes, join hands and kill him."
One person after another shouted out. Lin Feng's heart grew colder and colder. In his mind, scenes of what had happened in Snow Moon Kingdom appeared again—the bloody scenes.
In this merciless world, the human heart was the most venomous.
"Not good." Tang Youyou sensed the demonic intent rising within Lin Feng and said to herself. This group of people had gone too far. Lin Feng didn't seem to have done anything to incur heaven's wrath, right? Now, even those jealous of Lin Feng wanted to use this wind to eliminate him. Too vicious.
"You all... are seeking death." An icy voice emerged from Lin Feng's mouth. His dark pupils swept over the crowd. Demonic light swirled around his body. In an instant, everyone who met Lin Feng's eyes felt a bone-chilling cold indifference.
With a step, Lin Feng's body moved, heading toward the person who had first said to kill him.
That person's eyes stiffened, and he shouted, "Kill him together!"
As his voice fell, he was the first to launch an attack, blasting it toward Lin Feng, who was pressing toward him. Many others also moved. True Yuan force howled as they all blasted toward Lin Feng. Above the Heavenly Lake, there was rampant True Yuan force everywhere, very terrifying, as if it would tear Lin Feng's body apart.
"Boom!" A powerful attack landed on Lin Feng's body. However, a shocking scene appeared. Lin Feng didn't move at all. He didn't even defend himself. He took the attack head-on, his body as steady as a mountain, continuing to step forward. His icy pupils stared at the person who had first clamored to kill him, causing the other party's body to tremble.
"Boom, boom, boom!" One attack after another blasted onto Lin Feng's body, also blasting into Lin Feng's heart, making his heart grow colder and colder.
"Die!" Lin Feng roared angrily. The terrifying demonic aura suddenly erupted. His black robe wildly fluttered. His pitch-black hand transformed into a demonic palm, directly grabbing toward the person in front of him.
That person stomped his foot and continuously retreated. However, the seemingly slow palm instantly descended and clamped onto his throat.
"Spare me." His body trembled slightly, and fear appeared in his eyes. Lin Feng at this moment was so cold, so terrifying, like a demon.
Crazy. This person would go crazy, turn into a demon.
"You want me dead, and I should spare you?" An ice-cold voice emerged from Lin Feng's mouth. His hand trembled slightly. With a cracking sound, that person's head twisted. Dead!
After killing him, Lin Feng's eyes turned. His icy pupils looked at each person who had wanted him dead. Demonic aura was running rampant!
