Chapter 94

Just as everyone was amazed—

The fleshy cocoon suddenly swelled and twisted crazily, then with a "crack" it shattered. From within the blood cocoon, a huge monster's head emerged. The monster's head was disk-like, with four eyes and a terrifying large mouth that split to the neck, which was quite frightening.

Immediately after, the monster twisted its body violently, and the entire fleshy cocoon burst open. After a red mist dispersed, the true form of the monster, which was floating in the sky, was revealed. It was a creature with a completely red body, as if it had no skin, covered in red muscles and white bones. It had six limbs in a crouching position, always ready to attack. The most striking feature was a large hump on its back, from which countless long bone spines, as thick as human arms, protruded. The spines were as long as spears, with sharp edges that could pierce through anything.

"Tsk tsk, Li Xingjian, you can't kill Bone Lèi. This is his second form. Of course, there are also third and fourth forms. You can slowly kill him. I'll take your son and leave first!"

Li Xingjian's attack just now was clearly more powerful than the Death Scythe had expected. According to the information he had gathered, Li Xingjian did not possess such a bizarre and powerful ability like the Finger Sword.

Therefore, out of caution, he chose to leave one person to hold Li Xingjian back while he took Li Haoran and left. As soon as he finished speaking, a huge black ghost head made of mist appeared behind the Death Scythe. It opened its mouth and swallowed the Death Scythe whole. After the mist dissipated, the Death Scythe had vanished without a trace.

"Hmph, want to run? Think again!"

A flash of anger crossed Li Xingjian's face. He glanced at the bone spear monster in the sky, which was ready to attack, and without turning back, he coldly instructed Qin Xin Yue, who was behind him: "You lead the elders and disciples to hold this guy off. Try to avoid attacking it as much as possible. Its flesh is very strange and can absorb the energy of attacks to evolve."

Qin Xin Yue was naturally anxious, as her son had been taken away.

"Alright, go save your son. I'll handle this!"

With that, Qin Xin Yue flicked the hem of her robe, sat in the air, and a flowing ancient zither appeared before her. She then played the zither, producing a melody that was calm yet subtly lethal.

Li Xingjian nodded and disappeared in a flash. Qin Xin Yue was at least a Sixth Stage Earth Gang realm, so she could at least use a sound-killing array to hold the undead monster, even if she couldn't kill it.

After Li Xingjian disappeared, the monster transformed from Bone Lèi roared and lunged forward. The floating musical notes in the air suddenly fluctuated, and the sound waves materialized, forming a net around Bone Lèi, trapping him in a small space. Sound blades danced and began to tear him apart.

Bone Lèi did not give in easily. The bone spines on his back suddenly extended, like countless arms, forming a dense and impenetrable defensive cocoon, continuously deflecting the sound blades.

The fierce battle in the sky was intense, but Qin Feng, who had been watching from below, could no longer sit still.

Li Haoran had actually been taken away by the Death Scythe!

This satisfied Qin Feng's "rescue" condition.

"But where should I ambush and intercept him?"

The outer area of Shujian Mountain was protected by a large array. When the Death Scythe and Bone Lèi were discovered, the array was likely already activated, preventing anyone from leaving Shujian Mountain.

The only method...

At this thought, Qin Feng's eyes suddenly lit up!

"Right, Ghost Sword Cliff!"

The opponent had entered from there, so the teleportation coordinates were likely set there. If they wanted to escape, they would have to return the same way.

Since they dared to come in to capture someone, they must have planned an escape route.

Qin Feng was more than 80% confident in his deduction!

"I'm going!"

With his mind made up, Qin Feng immediately moved.

Fortunately, Ghost Sword Cliff was on Jianyuan Peak; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to do anything, as he couldn't fly.

Qin Feng had been to Ghost Sword Cliff once, so he knew the way well. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone on Jianyuan Peak was focused on the monster Bone Lèi, Qin Feng removed the large black cloth and quickly ran toward Ghost Sword Cliff.

At this moment, who would pay attention to Qin Feng!

He knew the way well, so it was easy to get there.

Qin Feng's physical condition was excellent, and climbing Ghost Sword Cliff didn't take much time.

Moreover, Qin Feng was confident he would arrive before the Death Scythe. Li Xingjian, with his Celestial Gang realm cultivation, would make it very difficult for the Death Scythe to escape, and there was a high chance he would be injured and retreat to this place.

This was the best opportunity. As long as he caught the opponent off guard and launched a surprise attack, he had a good chance of success.

With his mind made up, Qin Feng arrived early at the pass where the two had appeared the previous night. He looked around, and indeed, everything was the same as when he left last night, and the Death Scythe had not yet arrived.

"Good, the opponent hasn't come yet. I need to hide quickly and see if I can find an opportunity."

He took out the large black cloth from his storage ring, put it on, and found a large rock to hide behind, waiting quietly for the Death Scythe to appear.

Time passed slowly.

Qin Feng's brows furrowed tightly.

"Did I misjudge?"

After so long without any sign, even the usually calm Qin Feng began to doubt.

But just then, a rapid sound of something breaking through the air reached Qin Feng's ears. It was very fast, accompanied by a sonic boom, clearly the sound of a weapon flying quickly.

Qin Feng's expression changed, and he strained his eyes to look into the distance. When he saw it, his face lit up with joy.

The Death Scythe himself didn't come, but his weapon did. It was the long black scythe, with the unconscious Li Haoran's collar hooked by the scythe's blade, flying forward quickly.

"Where did the Death Scythe go? Did Li Xingjian not chase him?"

Qin Feng didn't act immediately but instead used his purple eyes to look behind the scythe, confirming that no one was chasing it. He then took out Chong Wu from his storage ring and slowly moved to the scythe's flight path, preparing to save Li Haoran when the scythe passed by.

As for why this situation had arisen, Qin Feng had a rough idea.

Most likely, Li Xingjian had caught up with the Death Scythe. Being entangled by a Celestial Gang realm expert, how could the Death Scythe escape? So he sent the scythe to take Li Haoran away first, while he stayed behind to hold off Li Xingjian.

By now, they were probably already in battle.

However, without the scythe, how long could the Death Scythe hold out? Qin Feng had no idea, so he had to quickly save Li Haoran and carry out his plan.

The scythe flew very fast and was soon in front of Qin Feng.

Since Qin Feng was hidden under the large black cloth, the opponent clearly didn't notice his presence.

So, when the scythe was almost above his head, Qin Feng moved!

He suddenly sprang up, following the pre-calculated trajectory, and swung Chong Wu with all his might, smashing it into the scythe—

"Boom!"

The blow was solid, and the immense force sent the scythe flying. Li Haoran, due to the shock, fell from the scythe's grip.

Qin Feng quickly caught Li Haoran.

The scythe flew several dozen feet away before stopping. It then spun in the air and, from within the scythe, a chilling, icy voice suddenly emerged—

"Boy, you're asking for death!"
