Chapter 1763: Chapter 946: Infiltration
I saw the white-haired man holding the Divine Sword from the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, without saying a word, he swung it toward Lin Feng.
Hua Shengmi said nothing, at this moment Lin Feng was under her control.
Raising the Sky-cutting Sword for a horizontal block, during the block the sword emitted a faint blue glow that protected Lin Feng like a light curtain.
At that moment, a Divine Sword and a Soul Artifact Sword collided together, and the air between them shattered into nothingness.
Yet Lin Feng remained unaffected, as Hua Shengmi struck horizontally at the white-haired man, who thought Lin Feng was courting death.
Without hesitation, he used his Poison Powder on his palm, striking with elegance.
Unexpectedly, Hua Shengmi had a Dagger in her hand, and with one slash, she severed the white-haired man’s arm.
The white-haired man winced in pain, surprised by the viciousness of the righteous man in front of him. As he looked at Lin Feng, he saw him as a god of death.
In his moment of hesitation, Hua Shengmi’s Dagger sliced off the white-haired man’s right hand that was holding the sword.
The white-haired man looked at Lin Feng, astonished that a master of the Seven Spirit Knot could lose both arms at once.
But before he could comprehend it, Lin Feng’s Heavenly Ice Divine Palm shattered him completely.
This was Yuan Hong’s skill, Lin Feng had seen it once, but Hua Shengmi had grasped it.
Lin Feng saw Hua Shengmi’s forceful move, though ruthless, it was simple, direct, and decisive.
To outsiders, such straightforward moves might seem cruel, but in real combat, they are simply the essence of martial arts, without any need for mercy against the Cult.
The Innate Spiritual Seed of the world’s original source has witnessed numerous skills, extracting the essence for simplicity; to her, the so-called move is just a direct attack, and any dithering becomes a flaw among masters, leading to one’s downfall.
Thus, master against master is often resolved in a few moves.
Hua Shengmi used only three moves to crush a being supported by the Divine Sword with the strength of the Eight Spirit Knot. This overwhelming power was unimaginable to Lin Feng.
After the battle, Hua Shengmi returned control to Lin Feng, who quickly came to his senses, feeling his hands and returning to this world.
Lin Feng stepped forward, retrieved the Divine Sword, and upon checking inside the Qiankun Bag found no trace of his Demon Suppressing Sword, but did discover some Poison Powder.
Lin Feng suspected these powders were refined from Shadow Soul Grass, and decided to keep the Qiankun Bag, Divine Sword, and the Sky-cutting Sword.
After all, these two weapons alone could stir the entire Biyao City.
With the sword in hand, Lin Feng walked outside. Meanwhile, Yunzhou’s Marquis and Biyao’s reinforcements had arrived, having already eliminated the Court soldiers in the prison and were rescuing the people inside.
Mu Yu approached Lin Feng, speaking with a general from the Yunzhou forces.
"Unexpectedly, we managed to thwart the Court’s conspiracy this time. I’ve already informed the officers in Biyao City to apprehend those in the Poison Factory, they should have succeeded by now," the general spoke politely to Mu Yu.
Mu Yu responded with a smile: "The Heaven Alliance thrives under the Marquis’s protection in Biyao, and aiding Biyao City in difficult times is our duty."
The general saw Lin Feng and asked Mu Yu, "Who is he?"
Mu Yu replied: "He is the Alliance Hierarch’s special envoy."
Lin Feng showed the Sky Alliance Token to the general, who turned out to be a member of the Heaven Alliance, and upon seeing the token, saluted Lin Feng.
"Seeing the Sky Alliance Token is like the Hierarch’s presence. I am Wan Mokai, greeting the envoy."
Lin Feng quickly supported him and let him rise.
Mu Yu spoke to Lin Feng: "The Court intended to use Shadow Soul Grass to refine a kind of Poisonous Insect, and disperse it in Biyao City to transform its people into ghosts, turning it into a Ghost City. With that, the 300,000 troops dispatched from Yunzhou here would become the Ghost Army under control, thus defeating Yunzhou’s forces to restore their rule. But if so, the 300,000 soldiers and Biyao’s people would become poisoned."
Realizing the situation, Lin Feng suddenly felt enlightened, knowing the Princess had done a great deed for the Human Realm again.
Lin Feng said: "Now that this matter is settled, should I immediately head west to rescue our allies?"
Mu Yu replied to Lin Feng: "Proceed immediately. The Princess has already headed west to the Western Army camp. Upon arrival, light a beacon on the cliff to the left of the camp, and someone will come to meet you."
Lin Feng, the general, and Mu Yu exited the cave, deploying the army to fully control the inside.
"There is plenty of Spiritual Liquid here, but unfortunately, it’s all contaminated," the general shook his head regretfully, pondering a way to purify it.
Lin Feng had already mounted the Spiritual Horse, heading westward without looking back toward the Western Army camp.
This victory against the Shadow Soul Grass conspiracy earned Lin Feng greater recognition within the Heaven Alliance.
