"....Crimson Sun Fruit? That's a good name. Just by the name, it sounds like a good thing. I'll take them all."

Lin Fei, having advanced to the Sixth Level of Martial Dao, was no longer the same as before. When he entered the cave, he paid attention to the movements behind him, learning from past mistakes to avoid being caught off guard.

The Divine Blade Sect, the Unfallen Dynasty, one of the three major sects. Stealing from them required utmost caution.

Suddenly, Lin Fei's eyebrows shot up. He unfolded the Wind Following Technique, moving like a gentle breeze. With his left hand, he reached out, expelling mystic energy, which transformed into three thin blade auras. The three red fruits fell to the ground with a swish.

This was the Sixth Level of Martial Dao, where mystic energy could be condensed into blade auras.

"Looking for death!"

The white-robed man, who had made the move, never expected his opponent to be so bold, ignoring his warnings and instead snatching the Crimson Sun Fruits. He was shocked and furious, his chest heaving with anger.

"Mountain Splitting Blade Technique!"

As the name suggested, the disciples of the Divine Blade Sect were all experts in using blades.

...

Having obtained the Crimson Sun Fruits, Lin Fei did not rush to escape. Instead, he remained unusually calm.

This calmness saved him from a significant disaster.

Unfolding the Wind Following Technique, he moved like a gentle breeze within the cave. The opponent's blade technique was expansive and powerful, each strike exuding the force to split mountains and the grandeur of a mighty river.

"Truly worthy of being a disciple of the Divine Blade Sect, mastering such exquisite blade techniques. Without a specialized movement technique, any advantages would be lost! No wonder they can stand alongside the Unfallen Dynasty as one of the three major sects, dominating all others."

Lin Fei, who had learned blade techniques through self-study, admitted he was inferior to the opponent.

The Divine Blade Sect disciple, with his Sixth Level of Martial Dao strength, unleashed blade auras that enveloped the area, splitting the air as if it were cut in two.

Lin Fei was shocked, but the Divine Blade Sect disciple was equally astonished.

"Damn it, who is this guy? My Mountain Splitting Blade Technique is a top-tier mystic art. Once perfected, each strike can split mountains and explode with force. Even a Sixth Level of Martial Dao expert would lose their ability to resist under such pressure. How is this kid unaffected? This is impossible!"

...

"The blade techniques of the Divine Blade Sect have enlightened me. Using a blade can be done in such a way. No wonder outsiders often say that martial artists need to accumulate various skills."

A hint of joy flashed in Lin Fei's eyes.

"Heaven Splitting Slash!"

The white-robed disciple finally lost his temper. Being ignored as a disciple of the Divine Blade Sect was unprecedented. The final move of the Mountain Splitting Blade Technique, the Heaven Splitting Slash, was immensely powerful.

"Your technique is good, but it's nothing special. I'll split you in two with one strike!"

Lin Fei, having gained insight from the blade techniques, now had a good grasp of them and no longer needed to continue observing.

"Thunder Rush Blade Technique, ceaseless flow!"

Mystic energy condensed into a blade, his left arm transformed into a blade, and a ten-foot-long blade aura slashed through the air, accompanied by the sound of thunder, forming an arc of light that illuminated the cave.

The Divine Blade Sect disciple, feeling a blur before his eyes, instinctively closed them. In an instant, his body was split in two.

With the same cultivation and a similar mystic art, Lin Fei knew how to seize the opportunity.

...

After killing the Divine Blade Sect disciple, Lin Fei remained very calm.

From the moment he picked the Crimson Sun Fruits, the Divine Blade Sect disciple had to die. It was either him or Lin Fei.

Although he did not know why the other party had entered, Lin Fei did not dare to be complacent. He decided to eliminate the threat first, regardless of whether they were from the Divine Blade Sect or elsewhere.

This was his second time killing, and he was surprisingly calm.

After searching the Divine Blade Sect disciple, Lin Fei found only silver coins. He picked up the steel blade on the ground, which felt very comfortable in his hand, and decided to use it as his weapon.

"Poor guy!"

The steel blade, used by the Divine Blade Sect, was not famous but was worth three to four thousand silver coins outside.

"Mystic energy condensed into a blade aura can be effective against lower-level martial artists, but against higher-level ones, it has minimal effect. I need to be cautious next time!"

Holding the steel blade, Lin Fei moved along the rock wall, his face showing unusual solemnity.

...

"Rumble!"

Outside the cave, the sounds of battle continued, accompanied by the roars of the Crimson Sun Demon Monkey.

"That Divine Blade Sect disciple indeed came in secretly!"

From his hiding place, Lin Fei let out a long sigh of relief. For now, no one would notice him.

Through the cave, Lin Fei saw the situation outside and was slightly taken aback.

On the open ground, the Crimson Sun Demon Monkey, which had been surrounded, was now covered in wounds, with deep cuts on its chest and back. The aura of the Eighth Rank beast was weakening.

"Looks like the Eighth Rank beast is about to die!"

Lin Fei's face showed a hint of apprehension. Despite being at the Sixth and Seventh Levels of Martial Dao, the blade array had successfully trapped the Eighth Rank beast. This blade array was truly terrifying.

"I must never be trapped by a blade array in the future, or it will be a huge trouble!"

...

"Crimson Sun Demon Monkey is about to die. Please, Uncle Wen, kill it and extract the ancient beast bloodline."

The purple-robed young master, Ao Ren, smiled and turned to the old man beside him.

"Please rest assured, my lord. I will take care of the Crimson Sun Demon Monkey."

As Uncle Wen took a step forward, he exuded a formidable aura that rose to the sky, forming a column of smoke. The trapped Crimson Sun Demon Monkey's pupils contracted, and its pores stood on end. As an Eighth Rank beast, it sensed the impending danger.

This person is dangerous! Extremely dangerous!!

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The Crimson Sun Demon Monkey roared, swinging the giant tree in its hand, breaking free from the blade array and causing the Divine Blade Sect disciples to be injured.

The freed Crimson Sun Demon Monkey did not attack first but instead rushed straight to its lair.

"Beast, you're looking for death!"

The old man remained unmoved, his cold eyes showing a hint of disdain as he uttered a cold word.

"Slash!"

A ten-foot-long golden streak, as substantial as a physical object, slashed through the air from above, accompanied by a whistling sound, and struck the Crimson Sun Demon Monkey.

Blade aura!

Only at the Eighth Level of Martial Dao could one master blade aura.

"Roar!!!"

The Crimson Sun Demon Monkey let out a roar of defiance. Its massive three-zhang body crashed to the ground, split in two, with blood flowing everywhere. It was only a few zhang away from its lair.

"Lord, the Crimson Sun Demon Monkey has been killed!"

The purple-robed young master was overjoyed. "Good, good!"

...

Lin Fei swallowed hard, feeling his mouth dry.

"What a terrifying attack! An Eighth Rank beast couldn't withstand a single strike. This is the power of an Eighth Level of Martial Dao, a blade aura expert?"

Fortunately, Lin Fei had great composure. Otherwise, that attack would have revealed his presence.

"Could it be that the Crimson Sun Demon Monkey returned to its lair for the Crimson Sun Fruits?"

Lin Fei's expression changed. The situation seemed to be taking a turn for the worse.
