Chapter 77 Daring to meddle in other people's business, isn't that just courting death?
Within the White Bone Sect, there are no taboos.
The sect has always adopted a free-range, hands-off approach to nurturing its outer disciples!
Life and death are entirely up to fate; the fittest survive.
Therefore, before entering the inner sect, all disciples had almost no sense of belonging to the sect.
If not at the time of entry, everyone must leave a mark of one soul and one spirit in the Soul Hall, thus being subject to the constraints and restrictions of the sect.
No one in the White Bone Sect truly harbored any sense of loyalty or devotion.
This cruel and cold-blooded training method is no different from that of rogue cultivators who walk on the edge of life and death.
Chen Jie had cultivated in the White Bone Sect for three years and was already well-versed in the sect's survival rules.
He always acted with himself at the center, killing and plundering at will.
He was never bound by worldly etiquette or the bonds of kinship.
This is also the fundamental reason why, when he encountered Zuo Feng being surrounded and attacked, his first thought was not to help him, but to take advantage of the chaos to rob him.
As long as the risks are controllable, the hidden dangers can be eliminated.
If you don't grab it, you're a fool!
Missing out on such a prime opportunity would be a huge loss.
He was well aware that the Zuo family of the White Bone Sect belonged to the Hall of Punishments, which controlled the sect's cruel punishments, including live sacrifices and torture. They were powerful and vengeful.
Once targeted by the Zuo family, the fate is worse than death.
Other cultivators who offend the Zuo family can still flee to another place and escape the Great You Kingdom to avoid disaster!
However, as an outer disciple of the White Bone Sect, he had no way to escape.
If you want to rob Zuo Feng, you have to do it cleanly and efficiently.
Leaving no trace, eliminating any potential risks, and completely severing all leads for investigation.
Chen Jie weighed the pros and cons repeatedly in his mind, and then made a decision.
Next,
He finally made up his mind and decided to take action.
He activated the "Concealing Breath Technique," completely concealing the true energy within his body.
Then he took out a special camouflage potion, applied it evenly, and layer by layer concealed his own characteristics, completely changing his appearance.
After completing his disguise, Chen Jie took a deep breath.
To successfully take down Zuo Feng, the first step is to eliminate the four cultivators surrounding and attacking him.
Chen Jie is always cautious and prudent in his actions, always having a backup plan and never acting rashly or recklessly.
He had already planned it all out.
He first pretended to help, then temporarily joined forces with Zuo Feng to kill the four attackers!
Once the formidable enemy is defeated and Zuo Feng relaxes his vigilance, he will suddenly turn on him, secretly strike a fatal blow, and finish the job in one fell swoop.
After a brief adjustment, Chen Jie secretly finalized all the details.
"The Soul Splitter Blade and the Crimson Phosphorus Armor must not be used."
He secretly pondered, "If I use these two magical artifacts, the Zuo family will inevitably investigate and implicate the Treasure Pavilion. My identity as a disciple of the White Bone Sect will be exposed sooner or later."
"As long as we bring out the Lingyuan Hall's longsword magic weapon, even if the Zuo family investigates afterward, the clues will only point to the Lingyuan Hall and won't implicate me."
Chen Jie slowly drew an ordinary longsword, his expression calm on the surface, but his mind was already made up.
He quietly summoned the Soul Refining Banner, secretly gathering his strength.
He waited for the opportune moment to swiftly and decisively kill the four men, leaving no survivors.
On the battlefield,
Zuo Feng's condition deteriorated rapidly, his physical strength and mana were both exhausted, and his back was already soaked with cold sweat.
He wielded his longsword, desperately parrying the fierce sword attacks of two orthodox Xuanmen disciples.
While exhausting his remaining true essence to infuse his shield magic weapon, he withstood the ferocious attacks of the other two demonic cultivators.
The four besieging cultivators had already joined forces to launch a combined attack.
but,
Deep down, they still harbored suspicions and distrust towards each other, unable to truly trust one another.
They were even more wary of the life-saving talisman that Zuo Feng might be hiding, so they dared not rashly get close and fight to the death, and always maintained a safe distance to engage in a tug-of-war.
The battle was temporarily locked in a stalemate!
The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it becomes for Zuo Feng, whose mana is nearing depletion.
The left wing's offensive and defensive rhythm was completely disrupted, his true energy was almost depleted, and he was struggling to defend himself.
The four cultivators had already seen through his weakness and realized that he was at his last gasp!
Next,
They quickened their pace of attack again, becoming increasingly fierce and aggressive, giving the enemy no chance to catch their breath.
at this time,
One of the disciples of the orthodox Xuanmen sect flashed a cold light in his palm and quietly took out a talisman.
Wind and thunder talisman!
Its grade is the same as the Blood Fiend Talisman, and its power is domineering and violent, with extremely strong destructive force.
boom!
The Xuanmen disciple poured in his true essence and instantly activated the Wind and Thunder Talisman.
A violent bolt of lightning, carrying the power of fierce wind and thunder, descended from the sky, striking Zuo Feng's vitals.
at the same time,
The two Xuanmen disciples wielded their swords simultaneously, fiercely attacking Zuo Feng's weak points in the chest and abdomen, each move aimed to kill.
Left with no other option, Zuo Feng had to raise his shield to block.
With a deafening bang, the shield barely withstood the violent bombardment of the Wind and Thunder Talisman.
but,
He himself was sent flying backward by the terrifying force of wind and thunder.
Pfft!
Zuo Feng crashed heavily to the ground, his throat felt salty, and a mouthful of blood gushed out.
His shield withstood a heavy blow from wind and thunder, its surface cracked and its defensive power greatly diminished, rendering it unusable for further combat.
Forced by circumstances
Zuo Feng had no choice but to abandon his shield and pour all his remaining true energy into the Xuan Tie longsword, barely managing to create a layer of sword energy shield to protect himself.
However, this precarious sword energy shield was no match for the relentless attacks of the four cultivators.
Despair instantly enveloped Zuo Feng's heart!
His eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, and the aura of death seemed to emanate from him.
Clang!
A cold sword light whistled through the air, instantly tearing through the thin sword energy shield and piercing straight for Zuo Feng's throat!
The sword light was sharp and fierce, and the killing intent was overwhelming.
With this sword strike, the victim would surely be decapitated and die on the spot.
"Am I going to die here tonight?"
There is no way to avoid it, and there is nowhere to retreat!
Zuo Feng's true energy was exhausted, leaving him powerless to offer any further resistance.
He could only watch helplessly as the deadly sword approached his neck.
In despair, he slowly closed his eyes and awaited death.
The anticipated death did not come.
Zuo Feng was surprised and quickly opened his eyes to look.
A monk wearing a bamboo hat and a black veil stood quietly in front of him.
A long sword was placed horizontally in front of him, firmly blocking the fatal blow.
Waaah—!
A sudden gust of wind arose, a menacing aura soared to the sky, and an overwhelming pressure swept through the area.
Zuo Feng keenly sensed the familiar aura emanating from the other party, and his tense nerves suddenly relaxed.
That was the true essence fluctuation of the "White Bone Heart Sutra," it was from a fellow cultivator!
Having survived the ordeal, Zuo Feng was in a daze.
Chen Jie spoke calmly, his tone undisturbed: "Senior brother, you stopped those two demonic cultivators. As for the remaining two scum from the orthodox Xuanmen sect, I'll kill them for you."
He secretly calculated that the only way out was to deal with the four attackers first.
Next,
Only then can we focus on dealing with Zuo Feng and completely eliminate the potential threat.
Otherwise, if Zuo Feng were killed by the four men, they would scatter and he wouldn't be able to stop them at all.
With Chen Jie joining the team to share the burden, Zuo Feng's pressure decreased significantly.
He quickly nodded in response, "Thank you for your help!"
He had no time to say more, and immediately focused his mind and strength to resist the fierce attack of the two demonic disciples.
Chen Jie deliberately left two people for Zuo Feng to restrain, so that he would not have any chance to recuperate and recover his magic power.
After dealing with the four assassins, it will be easy to deal with the exhausted Zuo Feng.
Chen Jie turned to look at the remaining two orthodox Xuanmen cultivators, gripping his longsword tightly in his palm, his mind focused and on guard.
Upon closer inspection,
Although these two are disciples of the orthodox Xuanmen sect, they exude a murderous aura and are likely roaming the wilderness to ambush and plunder, making their fortune through robbery.
The two men's martial arts techniques were powerful, and their bodies were surrounded by a righteous aura.
They appear to be constantly slaying demons and monsters, exuding a powerful and intimidating aura.
The two Xuanmen cultivators were instantly wary when they saw someone suddenly intervening in the battle.
Immediately afterwards, they looked Chen Jie up and down, examining him closely with their divine sense.
It was later discovered that Chen Jie's cultivation level was only at the mid-stage of Qi Condensation.
For a while,
The fear vanished from their faces instantly, replaced by contempt and disdain.
Damn it!
How dare a mere cultivator in the mid-stage of Qi Condensation meddle in other people's business?
Isn't this just asking for death?
