Chapter 114: The Big Shot Appears
Due to the intense earthquake, Qin Feng staggered, almost falling to the ground.
Lan Ningshuang, holding onto Qing‘er, quickly stopped and asked, “Young Master, are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” replied Qin Feng.
Qin Feng looked towards the enormous white bone skeleton, his expression solemn.
The scale of this invasion into the city seemed to have reached Class A level due to the earthquake.
However, the commotion was so significant that Si Zheng must have noticed it. There was no need for Qin Feng to take the risk of reporting to the Demon Slaying Department. Maybe it was better to escape back to the Qin residence?
Suddenly, Qin Feng thought of the common people who were misled by the ancient mirage.
“Those people lost in the illusion might meet their end in the mouths of the ghosts if we don’t save them,” Qin Feng’s face turned unsightly, vividly recalling the scene where the silver-haired man summoned the ghosts.
“The man who can control the ghosts must be terrifying, but he didn’t make a move. Instead, after summoning the ghosts, he disappeared,” Qin Feng vaguely heard the silver-haired man mention the phrase “Master.” It seemed like that man had engaged in a conflict with a mysterious expert.
Could it be Si Zheng?
No, it couldn’t be. When the white bone arm suddenly broke, it wasn’t the work of the ghosts; it looked more like a martial skill.
Could there be other experts in Jinyang City besides the Lord Si?
Qin Feng thought of Old Li and the messy old man but couldn’t match them with this mysterious expert.
Just then, a group of people who had fallen into the illusion came chasing again, but there was no sign of the ancient mirage behind them.
Save them or not?
Qin Feng was in a dilemma.
Suddenly, several hurried footsteps came from behind. Turning around, he saw several Demon Slaying Department members.
“What are you doing standing here? Hurry and run!” a man shouted.
Another person recognized Qin Feng and exclaimed, “Young Master Qin, why are you here? There are demons running rampant in Jinyang City right now. Hurry back home and don’t come out!”
As they spoke, the people misled by the ancient mirage had already reached them, rushing forward.
The arriving Demon Slaying Department members, not understanding the situation, either dodged or pushed the people away.
“What are you doing? Stop it!” someone shouted, but it was ineffective. Qin Feng hurriedly explained, “They are all misled by a monster called Ancient Mirage, confusing their minds. To stop them, you need to cut off the soul-thread connecting their heads to the Ancient Mirage!”
The people blocked the onslaught of the commoners, puzzled. “There’s no soul-thread; we didn’t see anything!”
Qin Feng glanced at the Demon Slaying tokens these people held, all made of wood, with the highest being only a Wood Star Second Token. Before reaching the Red Lotus stage, the rank of the Demon Slaying Token generally corresponded to the strength of the Demon Slayer’s.
In other words, everyone present was at a low level, and the Hundred Ghost Dao practitioners hadn’t even reached the Seventh Rank, naturally unable to see the invisible soul-thread with their naked eyes.
It seems like I have to rely on myself here!
Qin Feng made up his mind and exclaimed, “I’ll cut off the soul threads above their heads. However, after the soul threads are severed, these common people won’t regain consciousness immediately. You need to carry the fainted people to the side!”
The demon slayers looked at each other, and in the current urgent situation, they couldn’t afford to think too much. They all agreed.
“Brother-in-law, I’ll help you too.” Lan Ningshuang put Qing’er aside and quickly moved to Qin Feng’s side.
“Good!” Under Qin Feng’s gaze, the soul threads above the heads of the common people were clearly visible. He gathered white spiritual energy at his right fingertip and said, “Help me control these people!”
Hearing this, Lan Ningshaung and the others used their techniques to restrain the people trapped in the dreamland. Qin Feng took this opportunity to quickly cut the soul threads above everyone’s heads.
After a short time, the majority of the pursuing common people had been rescued.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Qin Feng was happy, but there was also some confusion in his mind. Why hadn’t he seen any trace of that ancient mirage all along? Could it be that it went somewhere else to harm people?
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
The massive white bone skeleton was still wreaking havoc in Jinyang City, and it was getting closer to their location.
Qin Feng frowned; there was no more time to delay. They had to quickly move the unconscious people to a safe place.
Just then, a loud explosion was heard.
Looking towards the source of the sound, in the high sky above Jinyang City, two figures stood facing each other. The loud noise was the result of their confrontation!
One person was dressed in colorful clothes with silver hair, looking strange and abominable—it was the Yao Zang.
The other person was unexpectedly wearing a black robe with a white mask— the faceless man!
Qin Feng was first surprised, then ecstatic.
The mysterious faceless man who participated in the chaos in Qiyuan City, and together with the spear immortal and the thirty-six stars, repelled a powerful enemy!
A boss, really boss!
With such a boss present, perhaps the disaster of the Hundred Ghosts in Jinyang City tonight could be safely overcome!
In mid-air, the demon’s expression became solemn. The blood-red patterns in his eyes kept squirming, and he couldn’t understand why there would be such experts in this small remote city.
The two fought for several rounds, and although neither could overcome the other, the demon could clearly feel that the mysterious faceless man hadn’t used his full strength.
“Are you one of the thirty-six stars of the Demon Slayer Division in the Southern Region?” the demon inquired.
The Great Qian Dynasty was vast, except for Imperial City, which was divided into four regions: south east, north and west. Demons and Ghosts roamed, and the dynasty couldn’t allocate Demon Slayer Department forces to every region.
Therefore, in the Demon Slayer Department, there was the role of a patrol officer.
Its function is to patrol and hunt demons and monsters in all directions! To hold the position of a patrol officer, one must be at least a Red Lotus Second Star demon slayer.
The faceless figure remained unresponsive. Seeing this, Yao Zang grinned, revealing sharp fangs, and a grotesque expression.
“No matter who you are, tonight is your death.”
As the words fell, Yao Zang forcefully clapped his hands together, and the surrounding space trembled. Four large white bone pillars appeared out of thin air, trapping the faceless figure within.
At the top of the bone pillars, eerie green ghost flames flickered continuously, emitting a terrifying aura.
Such a horrifying presence naturally caught the attention of the people in the city.
Qian Gui looked up and murmured, “He actually used the Sixth Cycle innate divine ability — the Abyssal Bone Prison. Was it Li Yang who made a move, or that old man? Hmm? Who is that?”
Qian Gui saw the faceless figure, fell silent for a while, and then turned away into the darkness, no longer paying attention, as if he had already seen the outcome.
As the Abyssal Bone Prison took shape, the space quivered.
Qin Feng, witnessing this scene, felt his scalp tingling.
“Die!” Yao Zang emitted a sharp scream, and on top of the four massive bone pillars, a burst of green light simultaneously erupted.
In just an instant, countless sharp bone spikes protruded, filling the entire area enclosed by the Abyssal Bone Prison. The mysterious faceless figure was naturally swallowed within.
Could it be true? Did the expert just get taken down like this? Qin Feng was extremely nervous. If that’s the case, Jinyang City will surely face a massacre tonight!
Just then, a continuous sound of cracking was heard.
The bone spikes inside the Abyssal Bone Prison kept breaking apart, and even cracks rapidly spread on the four massive bone pillars!
“How is this possible?” Yao Zang was shocked.
Then, a thunderous roar was heard, and the Abyssal Bone Prison collapsed!
A dark figure shot out, grabbing Yao Zang’s face with one hand, cutting through the night sky and flying towards the outskirts of the city.
