Chapter 9

The two were about to break the window and enter when a loud voice suddenly came from behind them. The ground behind them exploded, and a figure flew out, qi surging. A pure golden palm appeared in the air and struck the chest of the younger disciple. Struck by a force of 1,200 catties, the younger disciple let out a惨叫 and flew out, spewing fresh blood from his mouth.

The senior disciple immediately took two steps back, his face full of caution, and shouted angrily, "Who? Come out!"

Chen Feng emerged from the darkness, a cold smile on his lips. "Senior Brother Cheng, weren't you looking for me? How could you not recognize me?"

"It's you?" Senior Brother Cheng exclaimed in disbelief. "You, a waste of space, can actually injure Junior Brother Zhang with one palm? What martial technique are you using? How could it be so powerful?"

Is this still that waste of space?

"To come and kill me without even investigating my background, you deserve to be left here by me today!" Chen Feng said with a cold laugh.

"You actually ambushed us, you're despicable!" Senior Brother Cheng said angrily.

"Weren't you also planning to ambush me? If I hadn't been prepared, I would have been killed by you long ago! Despicable? You are the truly despicable ones."

These two had come to kill him, so Chen Feng wouldn't talk about fairness with them. He intended to ambush them, and since the goal was to kill the opponent, the means didn't matter.

He had dug a pit beside the thatched cottage beforehand, then lay down in it and covered himself with soil, leaving only a small gap for breathing. He slowed his breathing to make himself as lifeless as possible.

Sure enough, these two didn't discover him and were caught off guard!

"Haha, so what? You, a waste of space, think that injuring Junior Brother Zhang can do anything to me? Let me tell you, a waste of space is still a waste of space. You will never be my match, die!" Senior Brother Cheng sneered, drawing his long sword from his waist, flying into the air, and slashing at Chen Feng.

He was one of Elder Sun's top disciples, already at the Fifth Level of the Afterbirth Realm, two levels higher than Chen Feng.

At the Fifth Level of the Afterbirth Realm, he had the strength of 2,000 catties, equivalent to the power of four fierce tigers!

Chen Feng didn't resist, continuously retreating. Senior Brother Cheng laughed arrogantly, "Waste of space, why don't you resist? A waste of space is still a waste of space, you don't even have the courage to take my sword!"

Chen Feng pursed his lips and said nothing. He kept retreating, while Senior Brother Cheng kept advancing. Losing his patience, Senior Brother Cheng suddenly surged with qi and roared, "Die!"

In an instant, he slashed out eighteen times in succession!

This move was familiar to Chen Feng; it was the Yellow Rank First Grade technique he had seen in the Martial Technique Pavilion, the Eighteen Linked Slashes!

Eighteen slashes in an instant, swift as the wind, making it impossible to defend. However, the drawback was that the power of each slash wasn't particularly strong, not as powerful as the previous slashes.

Chen Feng pursed his lips and, this time, retreated instead of advancing!

The Great Brightness Palm was activated, and the golden palm struck the two sword beams, shattering them!

"How is this possible?" Senior Brother Cheng's mouth opened wide in disbelief.

"Why not?" Chen Feng laughed, flashing to his side. Without the obstruction of the sword beams, the golden palm directly struck his chest. This palm caused Senior Brother Cheng's chest to collapse, his bones to break, and blood to spurt from his mouth.

Senior Brother Cheng fell to the ground, blood gushing from his mouth and nose, and his chest.

He looked at the approaching Chen Feng, his eyes filled with great fear, and he retreated, pleading, "Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

"If it were you, would you let me go?" Chen Feng smiled coldly, striking his crown with a palm, killing him instantly.

Then he killed Junior Brother Zhang with another palm.

"This place is not suitable for staying long. Once Elder Sun discovers that his two disciples haven't returned, he will definitely come. He is at least at the Seventh Level of the Afterbirth Realm, and I am no match for him. In fact, if it weren't for the Great Brightness Palm, I would struggle even against a Fifth Level Afterbirth Realm martial artist."

"I should leave here quickly and go to the Green Forest Mountains to hunt demon beasts. This will both train me and allow me to obtain demon beast cores. Demon beast cores are very valuable, and can be exchanged for spirit stones and resources, or traded for martial techniques, cultivation methods, and weapons... a win-win. I will return here when Senior Brother Han comes back!"

Chen Feng searched the two bodies thoroughly, but unfortunately, they had come to kill and didn't carry much. Together, they had only ten spirit stones.

Chen Feng threw the two bodies into the river. The river had a large volume of water and a fast current, so by tomorrow, the bodies would be washed away, impossible to find. He also eliminated the traces of the battle to avoid giving Elder Sun any evidence. He knew that Elder Sun would be aware that he had killed them, but he couldn't find any proof.

After doing all this, Chen Feng put all the spirit stones into his bag and left.

The Green Forest Mountains were high and dense with forests, home to many demon beasts.

In a dense forest in a valley, the sound of wind and thunder echoed, and golden light flickered.

Chen Feng was drenched in sweat, repeatedly practicing the Great Brightness Palm. At this point, his Great Brightness Palm had reached a state of mastery, moving with his heart and eyes, almost becoming one with his body.
