Fantasy: I Can Randomly Refresh My Realm

Wushan EntranceBricks and stones flew, dust rose everywhere, causing considerable interference to the black shadow.

A sharp light flashed in Xiao Feng’s eyes. Seizing this fleeting opportunity, he roared, ”Watch this!”

Xiao Feng saw Xiao Feng suddenly take a step forward, his right fist like a cannonball leaving the barrel, carrying astonishing power as it slammed towards the black shadow.

This punch was fierce and powerful, the fist wind howled, and the surrounding air vibrated because of it.

The black shadow seemed to sense the extraordinary nature of Xiao Feng’s strike and quickly extended an arm to block.

”Bang!” A dull, heavy sound echoed in the narrow corridor, as if a massive bell had been struck hard.

The powerful impact caused the black shadow to stumble back a few steps, while Xiao Feng also used the momentum to retreat.

Just then, the black shadow stabilized its form and suddenly opened its invisible mouth.

”Hiss—” A thick black mist surged out like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, instantly filling the entire corridor.

Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei couldn’t help but hold their breath. Their vision became blurry, as if they were in a strange, dark swamp.

”Be careful!” Xiao Feng whispered, looking around vigilantly.

The black shadow’s form eerily vanished in the mist, replaced by rustling sounds of movement coming from all directions, as if countless dark creatures were lurking in the shadows, making it difficult to determine its exact location.

Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei quickly stood back-to-back, forming a defensive stance.

Their breathing was clearly audible in the silent corridor, yet it remained unusually synchronized.

Xiao Feng clenched his fists tightly, ready to strike at any moment.

Zhao Yuwei, on the other hand, continuously formed hand Seals while muttering incantations.

”Go!” With a soft cry from Zhao Yuwei, a layer of light blue energy spread outwards like water ripples, enveloping both of them.

Xiao Feng took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and focused all his attention on listening to the surrounding movements.

His ears twitched slightly, as if he could capture the slightest vibrations in the air.

Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, and a sharp light flashed in his pupils.

”There!” Xiao Feng roared, sending his right fist out like a cannonball.

The fist wind howled, actually tearing apart the surrounding black mist.

At the same time, Zhao Yuwei also understood intuitively. She clasped her hands together, and a massive blue light sword condensed in her palms.

”Hah!” she cried out softly, and the light sword slashed out like lightning towards the direction Xiao Feng’s fist was pointing.

The black shadow clearly hadn’t expected their coordination to be so seamless. Unable to dodge in time, Xiao Feng’s fist heavily struck its shoulder, and Zhao Yuwei’s light sword also left a deep wound on its arm.

”Ow—” The black shadow let out a low roar.

However, just as Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei thought victory was within their grasp, the black shadow’s body suddenly began to twist and deform.

Its outline became increasingly blurry.

Finally, accompanied by a strange fluctuation, the black shadow actually dissipated into the air like smoke, leaving behind only a faint, almost inaudible sigh.

”What... what the hell was that?” Xiao Feng panted heavily, his eyes filled with shock.

Zhao Yuwei’s expression was also serious, and she said softly, ”I don’t know, but I have a feeling it’s nothing good.”

The inn was a mess, with tables and chairs overturned.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the corner.

The Shopkeeper was seen peeking half his head out from behind a thick wooden pillar, his eyes darting around as he surveyed the situation.

Only after confirming the danger had passed did he cautiously move his stout body and waddle towards Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei.

”You two heroes are truly incredibly brave!” The Shopkeeper said with a face full of smiles, patting his chest. ”This demon has been causing trouble for a long time, I didn’t expect you two to take care of it today!”

Xiao Feng frowned slightly, a hint of a bitter smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Yuwei, however, had a serious expression. She got straight to the point and asked, ”Shopkeeper, do you know what that black shadow was?”

The Shopkeeper’s expression changed. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said with a look of determination, ”Well... I’m afraid it’s a demon shadow that escaped from Witch Mountain.”

”Witch Mountain?” Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei asked in unison.

The Shopkeeper lowered his voice and said mysteriously, ”Although Witch Mountain has Immortal Cultivation Sects stationed there, the Seal has been very unstable recently. Those Cultivators are probably stretched thin, which allowed the demon shadow to find an opportunity and escape.”

Xiao Feng nodded thoughtfully, ”It seems the source of the problem is still Witch Mountain.”

He turned to the Shopkeeper and asked directly, ”Is there any way to get up Witch Mountain?”

”Huh?” The Shopkeeper widened his eyes, ”Hero, please don’t joke like that. That place is very evil; it’s easy to get in, but hard to get out!”

But a determined light flickered in Xiao Feng’s eyes, ”No matter what, I have to go there.”

Seeing that he couldn’t dissuade him, the Shopkeeper could only sigh, ”Since the hero is determined to go, I do know a small path up the mountain.”

”Is that true?” Xiao Feng’s eyes lit up.

The Shopkeeper smiled mysteriously, ”You may not know this, but although Witch Mountain Seals a Demon God, it is also a place blessed with outstanding people and resources. Where there are policies from above, there are countermeasures from below. With so many people wanting to get in, naturally someone found a way to create a passage for entry and exit.”

”However...” The Shopkeeper changed the subject, ”Getting in is not easy. I heard you have to pass through three checkpoints, and each one is extremely dangerous. Some people were so scared the moment they stepped onto the mountain path that their souls scattered, and they fled back overnight.”

Zhao Yuwei frowned and looked coldly at the Shopkeeper, ”It seems the Shopkeeper wants money.”

Saying this, she took out a money bag from her pocket and threw it directly to the Shopkeeper, ”Here are twenty gold coins, is that enough?”

The Shopkeeper took the money bag but put it aside dismissively, ”You two heroes have misunderstood. I am not a greedy person; this small amount of money cannot move me.”

His gaze landed on the piece of wood behind Xiao Feng, and a flicker of greed flashed in his eyes, ”What I want is that piece of wood.”

Xiao Feng was startled, then showed a look of understanding, ”The Shopkeeper’s eyes are indeed sharp. This is no ordinary piece of wood; it’s made from a Rotten Wood Staff.”

The Shopkeeper’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he nodded repeatedly, ”Exactly! The hero is indeed knowledgeable.”

Xiao Feng pondered for a moment, then suddenly handed the piece of wood to the Shopkeeper, ”Since you like it so much, I’ll give it to you. However, you have to find a way to take us up Witch Mountain.”

The Shopkeeper was overjoyed. He carefully took the piece of wood and stroked it lovingly.

He took out an ancient token from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Feng, ”With this, you can find that secret passage. When you find the passage, this token can create a gap in the weak point of the Seal. You must seize the opportunity to enter Witch Mountain.”

Xiao Feng took the token and saw that it emitted a faint spiritual energy.
