Chapter 49

Just as Qi Feng thought it was all over, he suddenly felt something in his pocket heat up, and a pale golden light burst out, enveloping him.

The several lightning bolts that came at him all struck the golden light, producing a grating sound, and then... they hit Qi Feng’s chest.

But the excruciating pain he imagined did not come. Qi Feng only felt a slight numbness and couldn’t help but take a half-step back, as if someone had pushed him.

Huh? Qi Feng and the few Miao people opposite him were all stunned.

Qi Feng subconsciously touched his pocket and then remembered, right! I still have the Qiankun Mirror equipped! No wonder that golden light looked like an octagonal shape with faint hexagrams floating on it. It seems that the pocket is indeed a proper accessory slot! It’s useful! Thinking further, the dragon scale boots on his feet probably played a significant role as well. According to the boss, dragon scales and dragon skin can resist divine techniques. Without mentioning other things, their insulation against electricity must be excellent! The lightning couldn’t conduct to the ground to form a large current, so at most, it was just static electricity!

Although he only wore two pieces of equipment, these were top-tier, right? Even if he couldn’t defeat the boss, encountering these few minions was no problem at all.

How could those Baiyue Sect members know this? They only saw their combined spell fail. It wasn’t that it was dodged or neutralized; it was simply resisted, and not a single hair was harmed. What did this mean? The other person’s level was too high, and their tricks were not even worth considering. They didn’t even bother to move, relying on their protective aura to block everything.

This was clearly an asymmetrical battle. They immediately decided to run. Qi Feng shouted, "Where are you going?" and took a step forward to chase them.

What is called experience in the world? Not chasing a defeated enemy is definitely one of the rules. Qi Feng, thinking only of not letting them escape, didn’t notice that they all turned around and threw a cloud of colorful smoke at him.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Qi Feng was covered head to toe, choking and even tearing up. What kind of smell was this? Sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy, all at once! Did they grab a handful of seasonings and throw them? He secretly felt relieved that it wasn’t lime; otherwise, his eyes would be in trouble.

Qi Feng wiped his face and head with both hands, coldly snorted, and shouted, "Using such despicable means? Do you have any sense of honor? Even though you’re just minions, you should have some dignity! Don’t you care about the reputation of your Baiyue Sect? #$^&... Hey, what did you throw? Is it easy to wash off?"

The Miao people stood there, mouths open wide enough to fit an egg, eyes almost popping out, and faces turning greener and greener. "You... you... aren’t afraid of poison?"

"What? Poison? ... Oh no! You’re using poison!" Qi Feng was startled, then remembered that he had taken the Tongxi Dilon Pill. Although he also took the Shengsheng Zhaohua Pill, he thought the two would counteract each other and remove the poison resistance buff. He didn’t expect it to still be active. When would he have the chance to test it?

But there was an additional benefit! Now, in the Great Heavenly Empire, he could eat and drink anything without worry. Since he had the Tongxi Dilon Pill, his mother no longer had to worry about him eating gutter oil, drinking toxic milk, or swallowing Sudan Red!

While Qi Feng was daydreaming, these Baiyue Sect minions really wanted to run. They couldn’t fight, their spells were ineffective, and their poison didn’t work. Was this a death sentence? If they didn’t run now, they would really be done for.

But Qi Feng reacted faster. He had so many items in his inventory that he hadn’t even used most of them!

Reaching out, he grabbed a few Talisman of the Celestial Master and threw them out with a low shout, "Whoa!" The spiritual power of the talismans exploded, causing a shockwave that knocked the Baiyue Sect members to the ground. Although they were skilled, having practiced for over ten years, they wouldn’t have fallen so easily in a fair fight. But with their minds set on running, they were even more vulnerable.

Hmm? Qi Feng saw that these guys were stronger than the strange aliens he encountered last time. Although they were rolling on the ground, at least they weren’t spitting blood.

Qi Feng continued to rummage through his inventory. He had bought so many things but hadn’t used most of them. He really needed to organize them properly, categorize them, and avoid being caught off guard in a life-or-death situation. Ah, this is... the Blood Lustrous, a name he knew. It was a projectile weapon, but he had never used it before. He always sold it to the store for a good price. Now he could try it out.

Seeing the two villains stagger to their feet, Qi Feng grabbed a "Blood Lustrous" from his inventory, a crescent-shaped, dark red, and slightly transparent object. "It looks nice, but how effective is it?" Qi Feng muttered, and with a slight effort, he threw it. The crescent moon flew out, suddenly glowing brightly, transforming into a red wind blade, and with a sharp whistling sound, it swept towards the Baiyue Sect members, leaving a mess of cuts on the floor of Han Yixian’s house.

Just from the sound, Qi Feng knew it was powerful. He turned away, unable to bear to watch, and indeed heard a series of agonized screams. When he looked again, he saw the few men lying on the ground, covered in blood, with large cuts in their clothes and faces, and the entire room was in disarray, as if a tornado had passed through.

But these guys were trained, so they weren’t dead, just in pain and unable to recover quickly. Qi Feng continued to search his inventory for more treasures...

"Ha ha... Right, let’s try this!" Qi Feng saw the Bi Xue Silkworm he had recently bought from the Dali Gu store. These people had years of cultivation and could even use divine techniques, so their levels were definitely not low. The Bi Xue Silkworm was perfect for absorbing their essence and blood, and the higher the level, the better the effect. But how could a true expert let you do that? So why not use it now?

Qi Feng pulled out a "Heavenly Binding Rope" and flicked it in the air. The rope, like a living thing, twisted and turned, transforming into a beam of light that bound the men from head to toe, forming a chain, with one end in Qi Feng’s hand.

Qi Feng was surprised by its effectiveness and laughed, "Ha ha, no wonder it’s called the Heavenly Binding Rope. It’s really useful! Binding immortals might be an exaggeration, but binding people is excellent!" He pulled the rope with all his strength, and the Miao people, unable to struggle, were dragged over.

Qi Feng took out the Bi Xue Silkworm, and the Baiyue Sect members were shocked, "You...! You know Gu techniques!"

Qi Feng chuckled, "Ah... a little, a little. Don’t worry, this thing shouldn’t kill anyone."

The leader of the Baiyue Sect members wailed, "I hate you for pretending to be weak. If you’re an expert, just show your true colors. We’re just minions, following orders. If you’re so capable, go deal with our superiors. Oh, what grudge do I have with you to suffer such torment today? Just kill me with one strike, but please don’t use Gu techniques..."

Qi Feng was almost amused. Could someone from an evil cult show a bit of religious fervor? How did his plea for a quick death sound so lacking in integrity?

"Ha ha, don’t worry, no need to be nervous..." Qi Feng tried to reassure him gently, "This is my first time using the Bi Xue Silkworm, but I heard it doesn’t kill people and shouldn’t be too painful..."

"What? First time using it?!" The leader’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted...
