Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Just as Gu Feng and his companions landed ashore, the green leaf in Liu Zongyuan’s arms began to tremble, signaling a warning.

As his personal Spiritual Treasure, the green leaf was not only a tool for flying but also for warning and tracking.

If any cultivator with Divine Platform Realm cultivation approaches within a radius of thirty miles, the green leaf would immediately alert him.

As for tracking, within a hundred miles, as long as it remembers someone’s aura, if the person makes any significant move within the range, the green leaf can instantly sense it.

As a frequent target of tracking, it’s something that Soul Splitter knows all too well. The two have been long-time adversaries, and any time Soul Splitter dared to act within a hundred-mile radius, Liu Zongyuan would immediately be able to retaliate.

The people of the Celestial Dao Sect were mostly reluctant to make this trip, especially with the likes of him already here, making it even less likely they’d come.

Liu Zongyuan almost didn’t have to guess to conclude that the intruders were from Yama Hall, and he even had a mental image of their identities.

Soul Splitter, that cowardly scoundrel!

After so many defeats, he still dares to roam freely.

Without a second thought, Liu Zongyuan flew in pursuit, intercepting them just ten miles away, only to be taken aback...

Gu Feng and his two companions were equally surprised to encounter someone from the Celestial Dao Sect here, and they were momentarily stunned.

The standoff fell into a bizarre calm.

Liu Zongyuan’s heart was pounding in his throat, yet he had to maintain a façade of toughness, not daring to show any hint of fear.

Days of hunting yielded an unexpected day of being ambushed by Yama Hall.

In direct confrontation, they were inherently weaker, hence they usually joined forces to ambush others, never had they been surrounded.

It’s certainly over!

Liu Zongyuan felt that leaving here peacefully today was a luxury; whether he could leave alive depended on his luck.

”I knew you wretches would come, I’ve been waiting for you.”

Liu Zongyuan decided to strike first, to try and intimidate them.

Indeed, at his words, the three of them changed color, unable to resist looking around, clearly wary of the Celestial Dao Sect’s familiar tactic of overwhelming force.

Especially the doctor, who had suffered a previous ambush, fearing that this pack of mad dogs would repeat the trick.

”Are you bluffing?”

Gu Feng lowered his head in thought for a moment, then suddenly looked up with a smile.

Liu Zongyuan panicked internally but immediately feigned calmness, speaking with a cold smile, ”There’s no point in talking, today you won’t escape.”

Gu Feng intended to trick him, but upon hearing this, he became skeptical.

Could it be that there’s really an ambush?

At this moment, Yi Hong suddenly laughed coldly, ”You alone might not withstand the three of us.”

Liu Zongyuan knew this well, lamenting internally while having to brazenly bluff, ”I don’t need to withstand you; holding you off for a moment is enough.”

Surprisingly, this tactic actually intimidated the three.

Without hesitation, Gu Feng waved his hand and ordered, ”Retreat!”

As his words fell, the three figures immediately retreated in the direction they came from.

Watching them retreat in fright, Liu Zongyuan wiped his cold sweat and turned to flee in another direction.

Ten miles away, Gu Feng suddenly halted, hovering in mid-air for a moment, seeing nothing happening behind.

”What’s going on?”

Yi Hong and Plague Xiong both looked puzzled.

”Let’s go back and see.”

Gu Feng frowned and suddenly said.

”Are you crazy!”

Plague Xiong exclaimed, aware that he was sending himself to certain death, knowing there was someone there.

Gu Feng’s mouth twisted, casting a strange glance at him and said coldly, ”Cultivation requires wit, without it, you’ll end up like Soul Splitter, going nowhere.”

He’s not so easily dismissed; running ten miles without incident was questionable, and if he returns to find no one, it would be an even bigger problem.

Gu Feng was too lazy to explain, immediately turning back and speeding in the original direction, forcing the two behind to follow helplessly.

Back at the original spot, there was no sign of Liu Zongyuan.

”Damn it, it was a bluff.”

Plague Xiong cursed angrily.

”Enough talk, chase.”

Gu Feng pinpointed a direction, smirked, and flew off. Fortunately, he had been cautious, immediately launching a counterattack.

Otherwise, this guy might have escaped.

”Cultivation indeed requires brains, otherwise you’ll end up like Soul Splitter.”

Liu Zongyuan, seeing his plan succeed, felt a surge of pride.

But his joy was short-lived, as the green leaf beneath him suddenly buzzed with vibration.

Looking back, the three blurry figures gradually became clear.

Damn it!

Liu Zongyuan’s face suddenly turned deathly pale.

”It’s definitely Gu Feng who saw through it.”

The ten of Yama Hall each had their own unique abilities; Soul Splitter needed no introduction, becoming the lowest among them due to his own divisions.

Devoid’s ability enchanted the mind, but he was never strong himself, overpowering weaker foes, unable to fight equally strong ones, a major flaw.

If it weren’t for Soul Splitter being a fool, he would be the lowest.

Plague Xiong’s destructive range was the largest, his whole being was poison, even his cultivation technique was extremely toxic, and he could imbue plants with lethal poison.

Ordinary cultivators might not even see him before being poisoned by his plagues.

Divine Platform Realm cultivators found him troublesome, relying on massive spiritual power for protection.

But Plague Xiong’s poison corroded his opponents’ spiritual power; once depleted, a Divine Platform Realm cultivator would still die.

The previous battle was disrupted by this dog scattering plagues, distracting their side, allowing the enemy to exploit it.

Yi Hong’s ability was even more peculiar, capable of moving all energy he encounters, making combat dangerous against him.

As for Gu Feng, his ability was not in strength, but in beguiling the heart, capable of stirring the opponent’s heart demon.

Even with high cultivation, unless devoid of desires, meeting him risked the heart’s fire burning, or being ensnared by heart demons.

Liu Zongyuan suffered losses against him.

Gu Feng might not be the best fighter among the three, but he was surely the most troublesome.

Yi Hong might not be the smartest, but he knew how to exploit Liu Zongyuan.

Plague Xiong was crude and rash, but the best fighter among them.

Liu Zongyuan was confident he could escape if it were just one of them, but meeting all three allowed no chance of survival.

Gu Feng’s speed was immense; within five miles, he shot past the two, rushing forward.

”Dear leaf, please, go faster.”

Liu Zongyuan was terrified, frantically patting the green leaf beneath, pouring spiritual power without restraint.

But it had little effect, as Yama Hall’s body techniques were faster, and his heart’s fire was already flaring.

That bastard was once again using his power on him.

Liu Zongyuan struggled to steer the green leaf while guarding his mind, slowing his pace.

Soon, his divided attention allowed the three to catch up...
