"Senior brother Lu!" The woman floating not far away shouted, her cold temperament nowhere to be seen and face full of despair.
"Junior brother, be careful!" Lu Sheng’s senior brother also called out to him.
*Vrrrr!*
*Boom!*
A loud boom echoed in the sky, scattering dust from the collision of Spiritual Energy.
Lu Sheng and his two companions were knocked away by the explosion, flying more than 10 miles away. But they didn’t suffer severe injuries thanks to Lu Sheng using Spiritual Energy to quickly stabilize themselves midair.
Just now, Lu Sheng had seen his senior brother throw a Protective Barrier Talisman towards him, which somehow reflected the Sword Qis, however, even after that, they were still blown away by the implosion of Spiritual Energy, the Protective Barrier Talisman shattering to bits.
Just this showed how powerful the attacker, Lu Qingfeng, was.
Lu Sheng’s mind was filled with countless questions right now, but the most important of all was how could he escape the predicament in front of him.
He had already realized that Lu Qingfeng was far stronger than him, and he couldn’t defeat him in his present state.
Even if he used all his trump cards and joined forces with his two fellow disciples, he may not be able to outmatch the current Lu Qingfeng.
Now, he could only wait for reinforcements...
At this moment, Lu Qingfeng immediately appeared before him, launching a punch of Spiritual Energy.
*Bang!*
Lu Sheng dodged quickly, the attack making a huge hole on the mountain behind them as he rotated midair before swinging his sword rapidly, releasing a torrent of Sword Qi towards Lu Qingfeng.
*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*
The Sword Qi poured down on Lu Qingfeng like countless swords descending from the sky, as if the heavens were expressing their rage.
However, all the Sword Qi was instantly blocked by the protective shield of the Black Tortoise Shell, dissipating into thin air.
What kind of Dharma Artifact is that!?
Lu Sheng cursed inwardly before stepping back a hundred meters in less than a breath of time.
He raised his sword, his Sword Intent surging out as he brought it down with all his might, forming a tremendous force.
He was using his full strength to the extreme!
The Sword Intent cut through everything in its path, even the invisible elements such as air were slashed down in front of the mighty Sword Intent of the genius chosen by Providence itself.
Lu Qingfeng immediately felt a sense of danger.
He began forming hand seals instantly, the Yang Qi from the surroundings surging towards him, constantly being refined by him into Yang Spiritual Energy until it turned into a ball of flames more than 10 meters big above his head.
The 3 miniature suns behind his head glowed brightly as he flew high into the air, looking down at Lu Sheng and the others.
His Mystical Flame Bow was drawn by him, looking extremely majestic and arrogant.
At this moment, Lu Sheng couldn’t help but marvel at his ethereal silhouette.
"Is he the incarnation of the Divine Archer...?"

He couldn’t help but mutter under his breath, a sense of fear rising from deep within him.
At this moment, Lu Qingfeng, who was floating in the air, narrowed his eyes as he felt multiple strong people approaching.
On the other hand, Lu Sheng, who was originally fearful, felt joy in his heart upon sensing that the reinforcements had arrived.
In less than a breath of time, more than a hundred people appeared from all directions.
It was the Crimson Sky Pavillion!
And not just them, it seemed they had even gathered a third of the strongest groups who had entered the secret realm!
38 cultivators in the later stages of Acquired Realm, 12 in the Ninth Stage of Acquired Realm, 15 in the Eighth Stage of Acquired Realm, and the rest in the Seventh Stage of Acquired Realm.
There were countless people in the early and mid stages of the Acquired Realm too.
All in all, it was no less than an entire army of Acquired Realm cultivators.
The pressure emanating from this supreme force was far too strong, suppressing everything in a radius of 20 miles.
Surrounding by this huge force was a single man standing in the air and holding a bow of flames, a huge fireball floating above his head with three miniature suns circling behind his head.
His figure appeared even more like the Divine Archer from the folktales right now.
This scene looked straight out of a myth.
The young master of the Crimson Sky Pavillion, Yi Yun, couldn’t help but be surprised seeing Lu Qingfeng.
Actually, the moment Lu Sheng was first attacked by Lu Qingfeng, he had already sent a message to the Crimson Sky Pavillion through a Communication Jade.
Seeing that it was only a single person they were against, at first, Yi Yun was skeptical. But upon witnessing the huge pressure emanating from Lu Qingfeng, he was sure they had messed with a true genius of heaven and earth.
He could see through Lu Qingfeng’s cultivation base, only at the Third Stage of Acquired Realm, and yet, he was facing off against an army of cultivators beyond that.
His presence alone was enough to alert cultivators in the mid stages of Acquired Realm.
But no matter how strong he was, he was still outnumbered by people far beyond his cultivation. No matter how proficient his combat skills and powerful his spells were, he couldn’t make up for the gap in numbers.
Unless he was one of those one in a million year geniuses mentioned in the ancient records.
So, Yi Yun still felt somewhat arrogant.
Even though he thought it would be a pity to let such a genius die, he felt it was reasonable. This genius was an enemy of his other genius, which would only make things difficult in the future.
Other cultivators, including the powerhouses of the Crimson Sky Pavillion who had come to protect Yi Yin still felt at unease.
Such a genius couldn’t have an ordinary background, they thought.
It would be big trouble if power behind him came for their heads after they killed him.
However, they couldn’t defy the young master. He was doted on by both the Sect Master and the Supreme Elder.
And this was a secret realm. No one would know what happened inside.
With this mentality, all of them braced themselves for what was to come.
Seeing all these cultivators in front of him, Lu Qingfeng had a cold expression on his face as he stepped forward in the air, raising his bow up towards the huge fireball and pulled the string of flames, as if loading an arrow.
Seeing him do this, all the cultivators instantly jumped forward for a joint attack of all their strongest techniques and spells!
Even Lu Sheng, his fellow disciples, and Yi Yun joined in!
*BOOM!*
A loud sound echoed throughout the land, causing even the Spirit Qi to fluctuate.
Dust rose everywhere, veiling the surroundings.
The expressions of all the cultivators were different, ranging from nervousness to anticipation.
However, as the smoke slowly disappeared, their expressions changed drastically to ones of shock and horror.
*Vrrr!*
Lu Qingfeng’s figure rose from the fog, the three miniature suns circulating behind him at an extremely fast pace, continously emanating Yang Spiritual Energy. From afar, it looked as if it was a crown above Lu Qingfeng’s head.
In his hands was the Mystical Flame Bow, an arrow of flames on it, ready to be shot out. The arrow had a small, red sphere at its tip, which was the compressed form of the previously huge fireball.
This was a spell which was taught to him by Yan Jingfei in her free time, called the Extreme Yang Compression Divine Art.
He didn’t know it’s origins, but such a powerful spell surely couldn’t be obtained by his senior sister alone. It must be given to her by their master.
That was what he thought of it. But in reality, this was a spell which Yan Jingfei had obtained from the inheritance of the Immortal Goddess in her past life.
Even though he could not utilize its full power because of his low cultivation level, it was still enough to deal with all the people here.
As for the combined attacks of all these cultivators, it was blocked by the Black Tortoise Shell.
One must remember that it was a Rank-3 Dharma Artifact given to Lu Qingfeng by Tian Yongheng, who had obtained it from the system. And all the things obtained from the system were of top notch class.
Thus, it could block all the attacks below the Innate Realm.
At this moment, Lu Sheng had a devastated expression on his face.
He had never expected such an outcome. Since the beginning of his cultivation journey up till now, he had never faced defeat, much less be on the verge of death.
He could always escape casualties and even obtain opportunities due to his insane luck and Providence, that’s what his ancestor said.
But now, he felt a sense of hopelessness in the face of this anomaly which he himself had created many years ago.
"Ancestor...what should I do now?"
