Chapter 571: Chapter 571 The Escape and Killing Begins_1

Decades of hard work had been thoroughly destroyed by Ling Xiao overnight, and the heart of Demonflame Celestial bled.

Boom!

He suddenly broke through the stone gate of his seclusion and transformed into a black flame that rushed towards the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

Actually, his injuries had healed long ago because, with the help of his avatar and Black Spirits, he had obtained many treasures from the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

Pretending that his injuries hadn’t healed was purely for the sake of cultivation. Now, his cultivation level had surpassed not only the initial stage of the Heavenly Man Realm but also prestigious figures like Guanghan Celestial Venerate and Golden Light Heavenly Lord, making him a pivotal person among the Inner Sect Elders.

Ling Xiao was unaware of the Demonflame Celestial’s condition. After destroying Wang Nan’s avatar, he activated his Mountain and River Martial Soul to search for the whereabouts of Bai Feifei.

Since he had killed Wang Nan’s avatar, Bai Feifei couldn’t be left alive either; otherwise, she would remain an endless threat.

However, after searching the entire City Lord’s Mansion, he still couldn’t find Bai Feifei. Instead, at the location of the Trapped Dragon Formation, he found a mummified corpse and, upon close inspection, realized it was Bai Feifei.

"Good grief, the Demonflame Celestial is truly ruthless. No wonder he could escape from my Trapped Dragon Formation. He actually absorbed Bai Feifei’s True Essence energy."

Ling Xiao couldn’t help feeling a chill, thinking that Bai Feifei indeed brought this upon herself.

If her father, Master Baiyun, were in her place, he would certainly not have committed such vile acts.

However, Bai Feifei probably wasn’t dead, perhaps she was just transported outside the Moon Blossom Pagoda, eliminated.

Now that she’s gone, he doesn’t have to worry about her persistently troubling him. Ling Xiao planned to find Dai Yuling, Shangguan Lei, and Leng Hao because to enter the fifth trial, at least four people were needed.

He had analyzed when retrieving the disc that it required at least four Martial Artists to simultaneously infuse True Essence in order to activate it.

Luckily, he still had three comrades; otherwise, he would have had to seek help from Tantai Lingzi.

Whoosh!

Exhibiting his Golden Dragon Wings, Ling Xiao instantly shot out of the City Lord’s Mansion.

With his speed, in Black Spirit City, he was completely free to come and go, as none of the guards could catch up with him.

After the tempering in the Land of Dragons, his mastery over the Golden Dragon Wings had improved, and he believed that within the Transcendent Realm, no one could match his speed.

Just as he stepped out of Black Spirit City, his brow suddenly furrowed.

He had almost forgotten that within a short period, the danger in the third trial would increase exponentially.

Although he had avoided the attacks of Level 8 Dangerous Beasts and Level 9 Fierce Beasts, more terrifying Half-step Celestial level beasts were likely to appear next.

Because of the mighty dragon’s aura in the Land of Dragons, Level 8 and Level 9 beasts should not act rashly.

But the Half-step Celestial level beasts would be affected very little.

What’s more frightening was that the Black Spirit Organization seemed to have started to mobilize. Apart from their leader, Ancient Ship King, who remained on the ancient ship, the rest of the Black Spirits spread out, intending to kill all the trial disciples.

And the souls of the disciples they killed would likely be temporarily suppressed until the Black Spirits were defeated; otherwise, they could never leave the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

Danger!

He must quickly find Dai Yuling and the others before they were killed while trying to enter the fourth trial.

If he could sense the danger, so could the other disciples.

Tantai Lingzi, Liu Lie, Dai Yuling, Shangguan Lei, and Leng Hao all felt an unexplained shiver in their hearts, enveloped by an extremely dangerous aura.

By this time, Dai Yuling’s cultivation level had advanced to the early stage of the Transcendent Realm Sixth Layer.

Shangguan Lei’s cultivation level had risen to the late stage of the Transcendent Realm Seventh Layer.

Leng Hao had surpassed Shangguan Lei, with his cultivation level advancing to the pinnacle of the Transcendent Realm Seventh Layer.

They hadn’t obtained any other opportunities, and during this time, they had been cultivating non-stop to increase their Cultivation Levels, relying on the pills and Spiritual Fruits left to them by Ling Xiao. Their Cultivation Levels skyrocketed, unstoppable.

Tantai Lingzi’s Cultivation Level had also advanced from the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer Peak to the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer Initial Stage, directly leaping over two minor realms, Invincible and Peerless, reaping significant benefits.

Liu Lie’s Cultivation Level had also improved, but the least, reaching only the Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer Peak.

Regardless, all those who had been cultivating earnestly had made breakthroughs in their Cultivation Levels.

Bai Feifei, who had been aimlessly following Demonflame Celestial, didn’t make any breakthrough in her Cultivation Level, nor did she gain any benefits.

As for Wu Yang and Qin Wu, the situation remained unclear; these two guys seemed to be possessed by Black Spirits. Their Cultivation Levels showed no change, remaining at the Transcendent Realm Seventh Layer.

For Dai Yuling, Leng Hao, and Shangguan Lei, the mere fact of entering the Moon Blossom Pagoda once and making such progress in their Cultivation Levels was more than satisfying for them.

So even when facing the impending crisis, they were not afraid. Worst comes to worst, they would just be eliminated.

It was just that Ling Xiao couldn’t let them die.

After leaving Black Spirit City, Ling Xiao headed straight to Dai Yuling’s training grounds.

When he arrived there, he found several Martial Artists from the Black Spirit Organization attacking the Array Formation he had set up, showing signs of breaking through it.

Ling Xiao snorted coldly, and his Sky Gang Flying Sword tore through the sky; those Martial Artists from the Black Spirit Organization, merely around the Transcendent Realm Seventh Layer, were easily killed off.

"Yuling, come with me!"

Without much explanation, Ling Xiao called out to Dai Yuling, and then the two of them rushed to Shangguan Lei’s training grounds.

Under almost the same circumstances, Ling Xiao rescued Shangguan Lei.

"Next, Leng Hao!"

By the time Ling Xiao, Dai Yuling, and Shangguan Lei reached Leng Hao’s training grounds, they all gasped in shock.

By then, the Array Formation protecting Leng Hao had been completely shattered, and a few hundred meters away, a terrifying Giant Stone Monster was rampaging, wielding a large tree.

A Half-step Celestial level Ferocious Beast!

It seemed to be using only ten percent of its strength, not overly strong.

Ling Xiao analyzed the battle situation.

Although Leng Hao was not that great in terms of Cultivation Level, he managed to survive, despite being badly injured, by relying on his excellent responsive abilities, avoiding being killed.

"Five-faced Monster, take down that guy!"

The Five-faced Monster just released by Ling Xiao from the Seal Card had been following close by, and indeed Dai Yuling and Shangguan Lei had wanted to ask what was going on, but Ling Xiao had been too anxious, so they did not dare to inquire.

As the Five-faced Monster flew to engage in combat with the Giant Stone Monster, Shangguan Lei finally blurted out a question.

"Senior Brother Ling, it looks like you’ve encountered a great fortune."

"Just lucky, that’s all!"

Ling Xiao smiled faintly, not elaborating further.

The matter of the Book of Seals had to be kept secret; otherwise, it would surely arouse the covetousness of certain individuals.

While the Five-faced Monster battled the Giant Stone Monster, Ling Xiao went over to rescue Leng Hao, and Dai Yuling began to help treat his wounds.

With all three people saved, Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. The fourth challenge should be no problem—they could move on now.

"I’m really sorry; I owe you my life again."

Leng Hao smiled bitterly.
