Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Crazy Breakthrough!

After a short while, Lei Lingyun saw two figures on a low hill.

It was the He brothers.

Around the hill, several demon corpses lay, their demon cores already extracted—clearly the work of He Zhongjie.

”Boss Lei, you sure took your time!”

He Zhongjie frowned, showing a trace of displeasure.

Although Lei Lingyun was nominally his sworn brother, in terms of status, He Zhongjie, the young master of the Imperial Court Martial, far surpassed Lei Lingyun.

Calling him Boss Lei was merely a recognition of his strength.

”Hehehe...” Lei Lingyun forced a smile. Regarding the Purple Luo Creation Fruit, it wouldn’t be wise to reveal anything to He Zhongjie; otherwise, He would hold a grudge for wanting to monopolize such an Exotic Fruit.

He couldn’t afford to offend the son of the Imperial Court Martial.

”Brother He, I was just dealing with a demon, so I was delayed,” Lei Lingyun’s acting was flawless, all smiles. ”May I know why Brother He was in such a hurry to call me here?”

Lei Lingyun glanced at He Zhonglei, who stood next to He Zhongjie, a flicker of understanding passing through his eyes. He smiled and said, ”So, you want me to help your younger brother hunt demons and secure the top spot of Yellow Character Disciple this season?”

”That’s a trivial matter, not worth bothering Boss Lei about,” He Zhongjie’s eyes glinted coldly as he spoke sharply, ”I need your help to kill someone!”

”Who?”

Lei Lingyun curled his lips. Inside the confines of Heavenly Position Academy, one might need to act covertly, but out here in the wilderness where demons roamed, killing a man— who would know who did it?

”A despicable person who has repeatedly caused this son to lose face!” He Zhongjie clenched his fists, his teeth gritted in anger.

At that moment, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the south, seemingly someone making a breakthrough.

Lei Lingyun’s eyebrows furrowed, immediately thinking it must be the ”thief” who had stolen the Purple Luo Creation Fruit and consumed this tremendously precious Exotic Fruit.

”Damn, it must be that vermin!” Lei Lingyun clenched his fists, his voice filled with hatred. ”Brother He, I can help you with the killing, but I need to go slaughter another first—a man who must die!”

”Oh?” Seeing Lei Lingyun’s enraged expression, He Zhongjie raised an eyebrow and said, ”In that case, I’ll accompany you. Perhaps I can be of some assistance to Boss Lei.”

”This...” Lei Lingyun pondered for a moment, thinking that with He Zhongjie’s strong capabilities, having him at his side during the chase meant they wouldn’t have to worry about the thief escaping.

”Alright, then thank you, Brother He.”

Lei Lingyun bowed to He Zhongjie, and then the three of them flew towards the south, where the earth-shaking aura had erupted.

...

Ten minutes went by!

Twenty minutes went by!

Ling Feng’s meridians were like rivers breaking through dams, furiously advancing!

From the initial Seventh Meridian, then opening the Eighth Vein!

Ninth Vein!

Tenth Vein!

Eleventh Vein!

Twelfth Vein!

Only when he opened the twelfth meridian did this exaggerated speed of advancement begin to slow down, eventually absorbing all the Spiritual Energy contained in the Purple Luo Spirit Liquid when opening the thirteenth vein.

At that moment, every tendon and vein in his body seemed to contain an incredible violent strength, giving him an urge ”to challenge the heavens.”

”Having broken through the ten veins, I could even seek the Sky White Emperor Dharma Form to implant a second or third Mixed Element Lock.”

Ling Feng felt a surge of excitement within him; he had a Teleportation Token in his Spirit Storage Ring that directly led to the Mist Ghost Forest. Unfortunately, this type of teleportation was one-way and could not bring him back directly.

He hesitated for a moment, but Ling Feng decided that it wouldn’t be too late to visit the Mist Ghost Forest when he had time in the future, to acquire the second and third Mixed Element Locks.

”Human Dao Divine Pattern, condense!”

Ling Feng’s left eye immediately formed a mysterious engraving. He planned to use his daily ”ninety breaths” for swallowing, absorption, and exhaling, to fill all thirteen meridians with True Qi completely.

However, just as Ling Feng had just condensed the Human Dao Divine Pattern, he detected two quite strong aura fluctuations approaching his location with his strong perception.

He frowned and quickly activated Unlimited Vision, only to confirm that indeed, someone was approaching.

”Is it them?”

Ling Feng’s eyebrows slightly furrowed. Through the view of Unlimited Vision, he ”saw” that the person he had used to draw away the Sky Swallowing Dragon Python was actually coming towards him quickly, accompanied by the He Zhongjie brothers.

”Damn!”

Ling Feng clenched his teeth, frustrated that they had found him at such a critical moment.

The effects of the Purple Luo Spirit Liquid were too strong, and since he had opened six or seven meridians at once, the noise was enough to alert the nearby experts!

But now, regret was useless.

Although his cultivation realm had skyrocketed, he had used his True Qi to strike at the meridians, leaving his face weary and haggard. Thus, he was preparing to absorb Spiritual Energy using the capability of the Human Dao Eye.

Ninety breaths would be enough to recover most of his combat strength!

Under the current circumstances, he could only rely on Zi Feng to hold them off for a moment.

One breath!

Two breaths!

This was the first time Ling Feng felt time passing so slowly.

By the fifth breath, Lei Lingyun and the He Zhongjie brothers had already found the cave where Ling Feng was hiding.

”Hmm?”

At this moment, Zi Feng transformed into a half-human-sized Stone Man, guarding the cave entrance. Upon seeing three humans approaching, it immediately glowered at the intruders and said sternly, ”Stop right there! This path is blocked!”

”Haha! Hahaha...”

When He Zhongjie sensed Ling Feng’s aura inside the cave, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter, ”To search endlessly without finding, and then to obtain without effort! Ling Feng, oh Ling Feng, who would have thought it was you!”

He had a faint feeling of a familiar aura on his way here.

Cold, solemn, filled with sharp and fierce energy.

This was the aura of Slaughter Sword Intent, which Ling Feng unconsciously released during his cultivation.

He Zhongjie had guessed then that Lei Lingyun’s target was likely Ling Feng.

Thus, it really was a case of enemies on a narrow road!

”Ling Feng?”

Upon hearing He Zhongjie’s words, Lei Lingyun understood. It seemed this was the same person who had joined the Heavenly Position Academy and was recruited by the East Courtyard Sword Team within a month.

However, no matter who it was, anyone who dared to steal the Purple Luo Creation Fruit right under his watch only had one path—death.

”Hey, didn’t you hear? This road is blocked, get out of here!”

Zi Feng furrowed his eyebrows, sensing the killing intent from these three humans, and immediately stimulated his Demon Essence. His body began to burn with purple-red flames, which were indeed the Earth Core Flames from the Earth Fire Flame Ghost!
