Chapter 928: Words of Intimidation
Lin Feng watched as those powerful experts made their move, his gaze sharpening instantly. A bone-chilling cold emanated from him as snowflakes began to drift slowly through the air once more. On the demon's body, a sinister aura bloomed.
"So cold!"
Many people felt an icy chill pierce through them the moment this cold aura erupted. Their hands and feet turned numb, as if their bodies were about to freeze solid.
"Hurry up!" A frigid voice escaped Lin Feng's lips. This command was naturally directed at Qiongqi. The mass of flames enveloping the Ye Xu Flame was none other than Qiongqi. When Lin Feng had struck out with his palm earlier, he had sent Qiongqi flying out from the Snow Demon Tower.
He did not want Qiongqi to reveal his true form; otherwise, everyone would know that he was the sickly, sallow-faced man.
Crackling sounds rang out continuously. Qiongqi, of course, understood the need for speed. At this moment, he was using every means at his disposal to devour the Ye Xu Flame as quickly as possible. Here, aside from him, a Profound Demon, there was likely no one else who could accomplish this feat. Even someone like Lin Feng, who was at the Heavenly Martial Realm, would be burned to death by the Ye Xu Flame the moment he approached.
However, these several Martial Emperor's Disciples had known there was a flame here, so they must have come prepared. They should have brought treasures capable of collecting the flame. Otherwise, even without Lin Feng and Qiongqi's interference, they would not have been able to seize the Ye Xu Flame.
"Hmph!" The Carefree Sect Leader let out a cold snort. His Carefree Step Art moved at an inconceivable speed. That mass of fire, whatever it was, actually dared to try and seize the Ye Xu Flame—courting death. They had not been in a hurry earlier. With their strength, they could make their move at the final moment and easily intercept and kill the opponent.
"Crack, crack..." Terrifying ice spread out. In an instant, a frozen chasm appeared before the Carefree Sect Leader, sealing off the entire path. This sight made the Carefree Sect Leader's pupils contract sharply as he roared, "Who!"
This power to freeze heaven and earth was undoubtedly the work of a formidable ice and snow martial cultivator.
The other experts also rushed over instantly, only to find their path blocked by ice. Moreover, the ice continued to spread, moving toward them as if trying to engulf them all.
"Break for me!" A series of terrifying palm strikes blasted out from their hands. Cracking sounds rang out incessantly as the frozen heaven and earth developed dreadful fissures.
"Boom!"
These experts struck again in unison, a deafening roar echoing out. The ice shattered, and the frozen seal crumbled.
They stepped forward once more, rapidly closing in on Lin Feng's location.
The heavens and earth were filled with an overwhelming icy power. Suddenly, a voice rang out from the void: "Freeze!"
The moment the words fell, the experts' steps halted again. Their bodies were frozen solid on the spot, turned into ice sculptures as an unbearable cold gripped them.
"Boom, rumble!" The moment their bodies solidified, the freezing power of heaven and earth surged once more. Before them, space was sealed again. An iceberg materialized in front of them, blocking their path.
"Bastard!"
"Boom, crack!"
The experts roared in fury, breaking free from the ice sculptures and charging forward at top speed. Who was secretly aiding that demonic youth? Were they, like those Martial Emperor's Disciples, not from the Qian Domain? Otherwise, how could that demonic youth be so terrifying—at the First Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm, yet able to single-handedly fight four Martial Emperor's Disciples.
Meanwhile, at the location of Lin Feng and the others, the four Martial Emperor's Disciples saw that the experts had been cut off by the iceberg. Their pupils contracted. Someone was helping Lin Feng.
They stared fixedly at Lin Feng, speculating among themselves. Was this guy like them, someone who had received news and come from a distant place? Otherwise, how could he possess such a powerful demonic technique and have a formidable expert secretly aiding him in seizing the Ye Xu Flame?
As they watched the Ye Xu Flame being devoured more and more fiercely, almost on the verge of disappearing, the four Martial Emperor's Disciples' expressions turned extremely ugly. They frantically controlled their Martial Souls, pressing down on Lin Feng's Demon Seal technique.
"Kill, kill, kill..."
The four Martial Emperor's Disciples spared no effort, unleashing another round of ferocious attacks. World-destroying power swept out, as if the Heavenly River was flowing backward and the earth was being torn open. A terrifying momentum surged toward Lin Feng.
"Crack!"
A faint sound rang out, and the four Martial Emperor's Disciples' expressions trembled. It was breaking. Lin Feng's cultivation was still far inferior to theirs after all. The Demon Seal technique was about to shatter. One more press and it would be done.
"Scram!" At this moment, the demonic youth spat out an icy voice. The power of the Demon Seal forcefully pushed their Martial Souls back. Finally, with a cracking sound, the Demon Seal shattered.
The four Martial Emperor's Disciples' eyes turned cold. They stepped forward simultaneously, all charging at Lin Feng.
"Do you still think you have a chance?"
Lin Feng's voice remained icy cold. As his words fell, the snowflakes drifted even more fiercely. The experts charged at Lin Feng, but they found that the distance between them and Lin Feng seemed eternally unbridgeable. They could not get close, as if some invisible force was controlling everything.
"Void Power."
The four Martial Emperor's Disciples' pupils contracted sharply. At this moment, Lin Feng turned around and walked toward the center of the mountain peak. The Ye Xu Flame was finally about to disappear.
"Stop him." Tianlin Gongzi roared. By now, those experts had already broken through the air and arrived. Without a word, they threw a punch directly at the invisible Void Power. With a cracking sound, even the Void Power was shattered. They lunged forward, ready to obliterate Lin Feng. But at that moment, Lin Feng suddenly turned around, his gaze icy as he stared at them, sending a bone-chilling cold through their bodies.
His demonic pupils, filled with a sinister aura, were so cold.
"You fear those useless Martial Emperor's Disciples, but do you not fear me?"
Lin Feng's voice came out cold and indifferent, freezing the experts in their tracks as they stared at him.
At this moment, Lin Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his black robe fluttering. An aura of demonic elegance radiated from him. Every inch of his being exuded the demeanor of a peerless figure. Though he was only at the First Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm, he seemed like a demon among men, a saint among monsters—proud and untamed, single-handedly facing four Martial Emperor's Disciples, daring to seize the Ye Xu Flame under the watchful eyes of so many experts.
Tianlin Gongzi and the other three were all Martial Emperor's Disciples. What about this demonic youth at the First Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm? Could he be without a background?
This simple sentence from Lin Feng was enough to spark endless speculation. At this moment, they did not even dare to act rashly.
"Don't listen to him. Kill him and seize the Ye Xu Flame." Tianlin Gongzi spat out a cold voice.
"Shut up." Lin Feng roared, his voice still as cold as ever, staring at Tianlin Gongzi. "A piece of trash like you has no right to speak in front of me. Martial Emperor's Disciples—you've completely disgraced the title. Among Martial Emperor's Disciples, you are the most useless existence. Only in this Qian Domain can you throw your weight around and intimidate people."
Tianlin Gongzi's face darkened at Lin Feng's words, his expression extremely ugly. The other party was humiliating him like this, but he had no right to refute. At the Third Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm, he could not defeat an opponent at the First Layer. Even with four Martial Emperor's Disciples joining forces, they could not do anything to Lin Feng. Lin Feng called him trash, and he had nothing to say.
Today, he had been insulted by two people. One was the sallow-faced man, but at least he could suppress that opponent and insult him in return. But now, this demonic youth before him was humiliating him.
If Tianlin Gongzi knew that these two were actually the same person, he did not know what he would think.
The crowd was shaken. With Tianlin Gongzi's terrifying talent, was he merely at the bottom among Martial Emperor's Disciples? Martial Emperor's Disciples were indeed fearsome. Unconsciously, they all believed Lin Feng's words. Everything was because of the terrifying combat power Lin Feng had displayed.
Since Tianlin Gongzi and the others could be Martial Emperor's Disciples, Lin Feng could be one too.
"Ye Xu Flame." At this moment, Tianlin Gongzi and the others' pupils froze. The Ye Xu Flame had disappeared, completely devoured.
"Carefree Sect Leader, if you don't make a move now, don't blame me for being rude." Tianlin Gongzi threatened coldly, causing the Carefree Sect Leader's expression to stiffen. He felt very uncomfortable. Although Tianlin Gongzi was from the main sect, the Carefree Divine Sect, speaking to him, the sect leader, like this was extremely disrespectful.
Nevertheless, he still had to obey the other party's orders. A surging aura burst forth, enveloping Lin Feng's body.
"Do you dare to make a move against me? I guarantee you will be left with nothing but bones." Lin Feng sneered, then slowly turned and stepped into the mass of flames. His body disappeared entirely into the fire.
The Carefree Sect Leader hesitated. But at that moment, a terrifying wave of power emanated from within the flames.
"Make your move!" Tianlin Gongzi roared.
"Boom!" The Carefree Sect Leader finally struck, a palm directly slashing toward the flames. But almost simultaneously, a terrifying aura erupted. With a loud whoosh, rocks shattered. The flames vanished in an instant, turning into a streak of firelight that shot away like a meteor. In the blink of an eye, it had completely disappeared from the crowd's sight, moving so fast that even the powerful Venerable experts' eyes could not keep up.
