Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 43: Chapter 043: Fighting Three Alone

“Phew, finally made a breakthrough.”

In the deep mountains on the outskirts of Tiandu, Feng Wuchen let out a breath. After more than ten days of cultivation, his strength had entered the Sixth Layer of the Qi Refining Realm.

“The Nine-Colored Purple Crystal Spiritual Liquid is indeed a good thing. There are seven bottles left, which should be enough,” Feng Wuchen said with a light chuckle, clenching his fists and feeling the formidable power within his body.

Slowly standing up and stretching his back, Feng Wuchen mused, “It’s a pity that my strength is still weak. If I truly want to take control of Yunzhou, it won’t be easy to do so just on the merits of being an Alchemist and Artifact Refiner.”

The statuses of Alchemist and Artifact Refiner could at most earn him admiration and awe. However, the powerhouses from the various forces of Yunzhou were all attracted by interests, not submission.

To take over the forces of Yunzhou, Feng Wuchen knew he would have to rely on his own power.

...

The reason Feng Wuchen had helped Mu Tianyun and displayed his formidable and mystical Artifact Refining Divine Skills at the auction was to suppress these two major forces.

This was also something Feng Wuchen had planned after he met Mu Tianyun.

“Someone’s here! Third Layer of the Qi Refining Realm!” Just as he was stretching his limbs, Feng Wuchen’s brows suddenly furrowed. He sensed someone approaching.

Feng Wuchen climbed onto a large tree like a nimble monkey, his gaze turning toward the direction of the newcomer.

To his surprise, the person who appeared before his eyes turned out to be a beautiful girl in a white dress.

“This place is somewhat far from Tiandu. What is a girl doing running deep into the mountains?” Feng Wuchen wondered, his eyes continuously sizing up the girl.

The girl in the white dress was not the least bit panicked, wandering as if in her own backyard garden; her boldness was extraordinary.

“Hey!” Feng Wuchen suddenly called out as he watched the girl in the white dress walk under the tree.

“Ah!” Caught off guard by the sudden shout, the girl was so frightened she nearly jumped out of her skin.

“Who is it?” The girl in white looked up warily.

Feng Wuchen leapt down from the tree and said blandly, “Don’t be alarmed, I’m not a bad person.”

The girl hurriedly took several steps back, sizing up Feng Wuchen with a suspicious expression, “If you’re not a bad person, what are you doing hiding up in a tree?”

“Do I look like a bad person? This is my training spot. You’re the one who barged in. I was about to ask you, what brings you, a girl, to the mountains and forests?” Feng Wuchen asked lightly.

“What’s that to you?” The girl glared fiercely at Feng Wuchen and quickly walked away, truly worried that he might be a bad person.

“She smells of medicinal herbs. Is she here to gather medicines?” Feng Wuchen shook his head, too lazy to care.

“No, that’s not right, the scent of the herbs is a sedative! I’ve been tricked!” Just as he was about to leave, Feng Wuchen’s expression suddenly changed, and he quickly turned back to see the girl not far away sneering.

With quick and magical movements, he massaged several spots on his body, realizing that the sedative was taking effect, Feng Wuchen immediately expelled the sedative from his system.

Perhaps because she was a girl, Feng Wuchen had been careless. Who would have thought that a girl could actually be bait!

“Master Feng, finally found you,” said a cold laughing voice, just as Feng Wuchen realized the sedative was in play.

In the direction from which the girl came, three figures quickly approached, all with stronger cultivation than Feng Wuchen, and one of them had even reached the Ninth Level peak of the Qi Refining Realm.

“Who are you, and how do you know I am here?” Feng Wuchen asked coldly, his gaze scanning the three middle-aged men behind him.

“We secretly watched you leave Tiandu. In order not to be detected by you, we didn’t immediately follow you. It took us quite a few days, searching through several mountains, to finally find you,” one of the men sneered.

“Just as I expected, for the sake of profit, some will resort to all means!” Feng Wuchen seethed internally. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left Tiandu to cultivate in the deep mountains.

It was a pity that he was still found by some cunning and treacherous people.

The effects of the sedative quickly took hold, and Feng Wuchen felt his head growing heavy and his body weak.

“Master Feng, how do you like the taste of the sedative? Are you feeling weak now? This is a Third Grade sedative. You, a Second Grade Alchemist, probably can’t neutralize it,” said the leading man with a sneer, his face malevolent.

“To dare to attack me knowing that I am an Alchemist, you’re quite bold!” Feng Wuchen asked sternly, yet his eyes showed no panic.

To him, the sedative was insignificant. The memory and experience of the Evil Dragon were not for show. The sedative in Feng Wuchen’s body had already been expelled.

“Master Feng, you’re too naive. In a world where strength is revered, what use is a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner without powerful cultivation? Do you really think the forces of Yunzhou invited you as a guest because they valued you? Even if you die, no one will avenge you. Besides, in these barren hills and wild ridges, there’s no one to come to your rescue!” The leading man scoffed disdainfully.

“What do you want to do?” Feng Wuchen asked coldly, pretending to be barely able to hold on.

“Hand over your sword and Storage Ring, as well as your Artifact Refining techniques! Hand them over nicely, and you might be spared!” The leading man sneered, gesturing with his hand towards Feng Wuchen.

“If I give them to you, I won’t have a way out! Do you think I am a fool?” Feng Wuchen retorted coldly.

Once these people got their hands on the treasures, they would not hesitate to kill Feng Wuchen. Who would be foolish enough to let a fearsome Artifact Refiner roam Yunzhou seeking revenge?

“Then we’ll just kill you and take them ourselves!” another man said viciously.

“Are you from the Liu family?” Feng Wuchen asked sternly.

“Hmph! What’s the Liu family in our eyes? To us Zhou family, they are nothing more than ants!” another man said proudly.

Hearing this, Feng Wuchen stopped pretending, sneered, and said, “So it’s the Zhou family. Quite ambitious, daring to set your sights on me.”

“So what if you know? Do you really think you can still live?” the man bellowed angrily, not having intended to let slip his secret.

“You weren’t drugged?” Seeing Feng Wuchen suddenly acting as if nothing was amiss, the lead man’s face slightly changed as he asked in a deep voice.

Feng Wuchen said grimly, “Knowing I’m an alchemist and still trying to use a sedative on me, you are truly foolish to the extreme!”

“Impossible! You’re just a Second Grade Alchemist, how could you possibly counter a Third Grade bewitching powder?” the girl not far away exclaimed in shock.

“It just shows how little you know about me. Otherwise, even with a thousand times the courage, you wouldn’t dare to lay a finger on me!” Feng Wuchen said with a cold laugh, “But, what I didn’t expect was for your Zhou family to use a young girl as bait; this is utterly shameless.”

“Kill him! He must not be allowed to leave alive!” the lead man roared, his eyes narrowing with a powerful murderous aura bursting forth as he charged ahead first.

The three men rushed forward without hesitation, joining forces to kill Feng Wuchen, which seemed as easy as flipping their hands.

“You’d better worry about whether you can leave alive!” Feng Wuchen said with a sneer, his chilling aura of murder spreading, aggressive and fierce.

He brought out the Fiery Blade, driving the breath of the Dragon God; the Fiery Blade instantly ignited with blue flames, and the extremely wild Sword Qi swept out like a strong wind.

“God Shadow of the Dragon!”

With a low shout, Feng Wuchen burst forward like a jet was attached to his rear, his speed instantly doubling, his movement technique elusive, stirring up a large swirl of dead leaves where he passed.

“What terrifying speed!” Realizing Feng Wuchen’s astonishing speed, the three men’s faces drastically changed.

The lead man struck out with his palm towards Feng Wuchen’s head, but alas, he missed, as Feng Wuchen had nimbly dodged with his tricky movement technique.

“Tss!”

In the blink of an eye, Feng Wuchen was already in front of one of the men. That man, paralyzed by fear, didn’t even have the chance to react before Feng Wuchen’s sword sealed his throat, blood spraying out as he died without understanding what happened.

“You think you can kill me? How naive of your Zhou family!” Feng Wuchen said menacingly, every word filled with an icy chill of murderous intent.

“Arrogant!” At this moment, another man launched a ferocious punch at Feng Wuchen.

“Hmph!” Feng Wuchen snorted coldly and met the punch with his own.

“Bang!”

After slaying a man at the Seventh Level of the Qi Refining Realm with one sword stroke, he turned to collide fists with another; following a dull thud, the man was sent flying by Feng Wuchen’s wild power.

“How is this possible!” the man’s heart was in tumult, unable to withstand a single punch from Feng Wuchen although he was at the Eightfold level of the Qi Refining Realm!

With one punch sending his opponent flying, Feng Wuchen pursued with relentless speed.

“Furious Palm of the Third Layer Heaven!”

Within a few blinks, Feng Wuchen came violently, shouting out as he once again hammered his palm into the man’s chest!

“Bang!”

“Puh!”

A palm struck out, causing a resounding explosion; the man spurted blood from his mouth as the violent force threw him backward, slamming into a tree thick as a water barrel and breaking who knows how many bones.

“How could a Sixth Layer of the Qi Refining Realm have such strength? A Profound Grade martial skill?” The lead man wore a somewhat stunned expression.

“Pathetic!” Feng Wuchen’s mouth curled into a sinister smile as he slowly turned around, his icy gaze sweeping over the lead man, who involuntarily shivered.

He had never seen such a frightening and vicious man at the Sixth Layer of the Qi Refining Realm.

The pale-faced girl in the white dress had already been frightened speechless, her face ghastly white.

“Now it’s just you left!” Feng Wuchen said with a cold laugh, undeterred even though the lead man was at the peak of the Ninth Level of the Qi Refining Realm.

The lead man’s face was somber, fury billowing from within as he gritted his teeth and said angrily, “You little brat, you speak as if you can kill me any time you want!”

“The peak of the Ninth Level of the Qi Refining Realm is not to be underestimated. I will undoubtedly lose if I collide head-on,” Feng Wuchen thought to himself, clearly not intending to clash directly, or he wouldn’t have dodged the man’s attack earlier.

With that thought, Feng Wuchen took initiative, driving the breath of the Dragon God and drawing circles with the Fiery Blade, condensing ten energy swords.

“True Qi released?” Witnessing this, the man was thoroughly shocked, his eyeballs nearly popping out.

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh!”

The Fiery Blade swung, and the ten energy swords flew out simultaneously, each accompanied by a whistling sound.

At the same time, Feng Wuchen swiftly moved to the left.

The man used all his might, smashing the energy swords with his punches and kicks, his power proving mighty indeed.

“This brat’s True Qi is so wild!” the man was startled once more, feeling a sting in his fists and feet.

Without time for further thought, Feng Wuchen was already sweeping a sword toward him from the left.
