Chapter 59

Qin Feng lunged towards the direction of Huayuanyan, and his movement was extremely fast due to the sudden burst of speed.

Qin Feng was a physical cultivator, while Huayuanyan was a magical cultivator. There was a significant difference between the two in terms of strength and speed. By the time Huayuanyan regained her composure, Qin Feng had already passed by her and was heading straight for the person behind her.

If Qin Feng's target had been Huayuanyan at that moment, given the close proximity to a physical cultivator, Huayuanyan would have been dead long ago.

However, behind Huayuanyan, there was a lying corpse.

"Daoist Sun!"

Qin Feng was actually heading towards a dead person!

After passing by Huayuanyan, Qin Feng's right arm was instantly wrapped in a fist-breaking glove. As he approached, he suddenly punched out, and a huge fist shadow detached from his arm, accompanied by a sharp sound of air bursting, and struck the lying Daoist Sun on the ground.

This action startled everyone present, and a hint of surprise flashed in the masked person's eyes.

Just a second before the air-burst hammer hit Daoist Sun, the supposedly dead Daoist Sun suddenly raised her head. In a panic, she only managed to spit out a small black shield from her mouth. The shield instantly enlarged in front of Daoist Sun, and Qin Feng's fist fiercely struck the shield.

"Boom!"

The immense force directly dented the shield, and the force penetrated through the shield, though weakened, still sent Daoist Sun flying.

All of this happened in an instant, and no one expected such an outcome.

And all of this was done by Qin Feng!

Huayuanyan felt a bit scared!

Because she had been facing away from Daoist Sun just now. If Daoist Sun had suddenly attacked her, the consequences... Thinking of this, Huayuanyan looked at Qin Feng with a hint of gratitude in her eyes.

If the others still didn't understand what Qin Feng was doing, they were complete fools.

Perhaps from the beginning, only Shi Yuan, the clever girl, had guessed Qin Feng's intentions.

This punch, although reduced to seven-tenths of its power by the defensive magical artifact, still caught Daoist Sun off guard due to her lack of preparation. The immense punch force struck her body, turning her clothes into powder and causing her skin to crack.

However, Qin Feng knew that the opponent had only suffered minor injuries.

"Clap, clap, clap!"

"Good, you actually figured us all out. Although your cultivation is much lower than Qin Hu's, your mind is exceptionally sharp," the masked person said, clapping his hands.

As he spoke, Daoist Sun had already stood up from the ground. Her first action was to tear off the tattered skin from her body, revealing the yellowish-red flesh underneath. However, this body was very different from the masked person's. She had a face and features, but no skin, and her facial muscles could constantly twist and change her appearance. Moreover, the aura of this body was very different from the masked person's, as it emitted a heavy yin energy.

Qin Feng glanced at the skinless person disguised as Daoist Sun and turned to the masked person with a cold smile. "I see why she became so indifferent. As I suspected, this body is a skinless corpse, which feeds on human skin. Once it wears human skin, it becomes indifferent!"

"Are you from the Earth Corpse Sect?"

Qin Feng's final words made the masked person's pupils constrict.

"You little brat, if I had known, I would have found an opportunity to eliminate you earlier. I underestimated you, but it doesn't matter. Once you pass the Soul Devouring Yin Disaster, your usefulness will be over."

"Earth Corpse Sect, you deserve to die!"

Zhan Bai had fought against the Earth Corpse Sect many times and was well aware of their methods. When entering the sect, members would be thrown into the Ten Thousand Corpse Cave to choose their own life-bound corpse. Therefore, their most distinctive feature in the world was that each person had a corpse. The person and the corpse were connected, sharing the same life and mind.

Each life-bound corpse had its own special abilities. The corpse in front of them, which could wear others' skin and mimic them perfectly, was a skin-painted corpse, which had been skinned alive in life and sought skin in death.

Its ability was to paint skin and become human!

This corpse was a natural spy, able to transform into anyone as long as it had skin.

In the Yunqi Kingdom, Shujian, Earth Corpse, and Tianfeng City were the three most powerful forces.

Shujian Mountain upheld justice and had a long-standing grudge against the Earth Corpse Sect. Whenever they met, it was a fight to the death.

With Zhan Bai's hatred for evil, once he confirmed the masked person's true identity, he wasted no time. He immediately formed a hand seal and shouted, "Cloud Slash, unsheathe!"

"Kill!"

The flying sword had a spirit, and the supreme magical artifact Cloud Slash was extraordinary. A bolt of lightning shot out from the scabbard, splitting into two, then four, then eight, and in an instant, the sky was filled with the shadows of flying swords.

"Thousand Illusions Strike, slash!"

Countless sword shadows instantly attacked the masked person and the skin-painted corpse.

Zhan Bai's attack was grand and impressive.

Tu Zheng, Zhan Bai's longtime friend, cooperated seamlessly.

The moment Zhan Bai attacked, Tu Zheng's body exploded into a mass of mud, which quickly spread across the ground towards the masked person and the skin-painted corpse.

The two attacks, one from the sky and one from the ground, were perfectly coordinated.

The masked person's eyes were filled with fear.

Among those present, only Zhan Bai and Tu Zheng's combined attack made the masked person the most wary. Therefore, after they attacked, the masked person did not dare to be careless. He slapped his storage bag, and a black coffin flew out, hovering in the air with a large white "mourning" character painted on it.

As soon as the coffin appeared, the lid opened, and a huge suction force lifted the skin-painted corpse, and Tu Zheng's mud attack missed.

The masked person chanted a spell, and his body suddenly became ethereal, surrounded by a large amount of demonic energy, enveloping him in black mist.

Then, the flying swords whistled and cut through the black mist.

The mist dissipated, and the masked person's figure had disappeared.

In the next moment, a black shadow "whooshed" and flew towards the coffin, entering it, and the coffin lid closed with a "snap." The coffin then quickly fled down the tunnel.

"He's running! Quick, chase him!"

Zhan Bai turned and gave Shi Yuan a look, and she nodded. Zhan Bai transformed into a streak of light and took the lead in the chase. Tu Zheng followed closely behind, the ground continuously bulging forward.

Qin Feng and Huayuanyan exchanged a glance and followed closely.

Shi Yuan, who was left behind, immediately released a huge green python from her storage beast bag. The python opened its mouth and swallowed the unconscious Fang Xinyi, then was reabsorbed into the storage beast bag before she followed.

In terms of chasing, Qin Feng's speed was relatively slow. After all, physical cultivators were better at short bursts of speed, not sustained pursuit.

At first, Qin Feng's speed was quite fast, but soon he fell behind and was even overtaken by Shi Yuan.

Qin Feng pinched his nose, looking embarrassed.

Shi Yuan, however, smiled and kindly slowed down, walking alongside Qin Feng.

Fortunately, after a short while, the scene suddenly brightened, and they entered a relatively spacious area. Qin Feng and Shi Yuan stopped and strained their eyes to look ahead...
