Chapter 140 Killing Yan Kai
After the power of gods and demons was activated, Ye Feng's strength naturally increased significantly. However, doing so was also extremely dangerous. The stronger the power, the more difficult it would be to control. If this power could not be controlled and the strange fire found a chance to escape, then if the strange fire exploded inside Ye Feng's body, Ye Feng wouldn't have enough lives to survive.

As soon as the power of gods and demons was unleashed, a powerful force seized the strange fire as if capturing its prey.

Despite its desperate struggle, the captured Strange Flame kept crashing into Ye Feng's True Essence Barrier.

However, due to being sealed for too long, its power had not yet recovered, and Ye Feng's control was also very strong, so the strange fire could not break free.

Ye Feng gritted his teeth and tried his best to control the strange fire.

As time continued to pass, Ye Feng's power was still being consumed frantically. Each impact of the strange fire was draining Ye Feng's true essence.

Just as Ye Feng felt his power was about to be completely exhausted, he quickly took a pill to restore his strength, still struggling to maintain control over the strange fire.

Under Ye Feng's suppression, the flames of the strange fire gradually subsided. The originally restless strange fire calmed down and appeared at Ye Feng's chest, forming a bright blue flame crystal.

The blue strange fire was finally completely under Ye Feng's control.

Ye Feng was overjoyed. Subduing the strange fire would not only help him in alchemy, but the fire itself was also very powerful, which meant that Ye Feng's combat strength had increased significantly.

Moreover, Ye Feng also obtained this senior's memories, which contained a lot of understanding about alchemy. Combined with the strange fire, Ye Feng was confident that he would definitely be able to make a name for himself in alchemy in the future.

After successfully absorbing the strange fire, Ye Feng's next step is to fuse with the blood of the dragon race to further modify his body.

Taking out the dragon blood, Ye Feng also broke the seal within it. Controlling the dragon blood was much easier than controlling the strange fire. Although it was noble dragon blood, the strange fire was a soul with its own consciousness, making it naturally more difficult to control.

Ye Feng cut open the skin and began to introduce blood into the body.

As the blood entered his body, although dragon blood was relatively easy to control, it still contained the power of the dragon race. Even this small amount of pressure made it very difficult for Ye Feng to control.

Ye Feng began to guide the blood to transform his bones and internal organs. Although blood is relatively easy to control, transforming the body requires a step-by-step process, which takes a long time.

Time flew by, and after an unknown amount of time, Ye Feng opened his eyes. After continuous transformation by the blood of the dragon race, Ye Feng's body was finally strengthened in all aspects.

Ye Feng used his true essence to examine his body and found that the true essence contained in each cell was more than double what it had been before. His bones also began to contain this strange power. What was even more terrifying was that the injuries he had sustained to his internal organs when he subdued the strange fire had now been completely healed.

"This is fucking awesome! I reckon I could withstand a Xuan-level treasure with just my body right now," Ye Feng exclaimed in delight.

Having reaped such enormous benefits here, especially considering that the rewards included the Strange Fire, Ye Feng's ultimate goal for coming to the Southern Wilderness, it can be said that Ye Feng's objective has been achieved, and this trip to the Southern Wilderness can be considered a complete success.

However, Ye Feng was not in a hurry to leave. He planned to stay in this space and thoroughly comprehend the alchemy and formation techniques left by his predecessors before leaving.

There is no distinction between day and night in this peculiar space. Of course, even if there were a distinction between day and night, Ye Feng probably wouldn't be able to sense it, because Ye Feng is already in a strange state.

Ye Feng was completely absorbed in this state, seemingly forgetting everything around him. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously flowed into Ye Feng's body, replenishing his energy reserves. Under these circumstances, Ye Feng did not feel hungry even without eating.

In the Southern Wilderness, Yan Kai and his companions were already in a state of utter chaos.

Initially, Yan Kai and his group were careless because of the appearance of Xuanlong, and Ye Feng slipped away. However, Yan Kai and his group did not pay attention at the time. At that time, most of the martial artists in the Southern Wilderness had been bribed by them, and Yan Kai was not worried about not being able to find Ye Feng.

However, as time went by, there was still no news of Ye Feng, as if Ye Feng had simply vanished into thin air.

News of the strange events in the Southern Wilderness spread quickly, and more martial artists came to explore the area. Many powerful figures from various sects also appeared there. At this point, Yan Kai and his group seemed insignificant. However, even so, Yan Kai was already secretly inquiring about Ye Feng's whereabouts.

However, there was still no news of Ye Feng, which puzzled Yan Kai greatly.

Despite numerous powerful individuals searching the Southern Wilderness for several months, no one found any clues about the anomalies in the Southern Wilderness or the appearance of any extraordinary treasures.

Unable to find any clues, and knowing that these powerful individuals were all from sects and many had their own matters to attend to, they naturally couldn't waste their time here and quickly left.

After the powerful figures left, the other ordinary martial artists, who could not find any clues about the powerful figures, also chose to give up. Only a few people with opportunistic intentions continued to search.

Yan Kai and his group were among those who were still lingering in the Southern Wilderness. However, their presence there was not due to any so-called rare treasure, but rather because Yan Kai was constantly uneasy about the lack of news about Ye Feng.

It's important to understand that the Yan family and Ye Feng are already locked in a life-or-death struggle. Yan Kai knows that if he lets Ye Feng go this time, the Yan family will be in great danger next time Ye Feng grows up.

For this reason, Yan Kai has been reluctant to return, and he has already informed the Yan family head of the situation in advance, so that the Yan family can prepare for the worst.

As time goes on, finding Ye Feng will become increasingly difficult.

"Boss, I think this kid was probably eaten by a magical beast. Why don't we just go back to the Yan family?" one of the guardians beside Yan Kai advised. This wasn't the first time these guardians had tried to persuade Yan Kai to go back.

These guardians, being spirit-form martial artists, held high positions within the Yan family. Naturally, they couldn't bear staying in such a desolate place as the Southern Wilderness for too long and longed to return to the Yan family as soon as possible.

"Impossible! We need to see him alive or dead. How could this kid be so easily captured by a magical beast?" Yan Kai said in an irrefutable tone.

Although Yan Kai appeared very tough, he began to waver. Seeing the thirteen protectors who were already getting impatient, Yan Kai knew that if there was no news in the next few days, even he would probably be unable to control these people.

"Am I really going to have to go back like this?" Yan Kai thought with some reluctance.

Just then, a sudden change occurred not far from Yan Kai. A light flashed out. Although the light was not very obvious, Yan Kai and the others noticed the situation because they were very close.

"Ye Feng?!" Yan Kai stared at Ye Feng, who had appeared out of thin air, and said fiercely, "As expected, heaven is helping me. I didn't expect you to deliver yourself to my door at this time. Then I won't be polite."

Upon seeing Ye Feng, whom he had been searching for, appear, Yan Kai went mad. He no longer cared about the strange phenomenon of Ye Feng appearing out of nowhere. Even if Yan Kai had thought about it, he wouldn't have cared about it. No matter how Ye Feng appeared out of nowhere, Yan Kai's only goal was to kill Ye Feng. He didn't believe that his Taiyi Thirteen Formations couldn't deal with Ye Feng. Especially after fighting Ye Feng once, Yan Kai was even more confident.

Although several months have passed, how much improvement can a martial artist achieve in just a few months? Many martial artists have very long lives, and some people do not make any progress in their strength even after hundreds of years, let alone in just a few months.

Not long ago, Ye Feng finally fully comprehended the knowledge of formations and pills. After that, Ye Feng put away the seventy-two formation flags with the knowledge of formations he had mastered.

The moment Ye Feng retrieved the seventy-two array flags, the surrounding space shattered. It turned out that this array was the fulcrum supporting this space. The instant Ye Feng withdrew the array, the entire space shattered as well. Then, everything went black before Ye Feng's eyes, and he was teleported out. Before he could even figure out what was happening, Ye Feng found himself in the familiar Southern Wilderness, where he unexpectedly encountered acquaintances—Yan Kai and his group. Yan Kai and his men had already surrounded Ye Feng menacingly, and the Thirteen Protectors had already unleashed the Taiyi Thirteen Array.

Ye Feng silently watched Yan Kai and the others' actions. In fact, when Ye Feng realized what was happening, he was fully capable of escaping the Taiyi Thirteen Formations' blockade. However, Ye Feng didn't move because he was too lazy to. After spending so much time in the secret realm, Ye Feng's strength had improved a lot. At this moment, Ye Feng had an arrogant confidence in himself and didn't take Yan Kai and the others seriously at all.

Of course, Ye Feng's confidence also stemmed from another major factor: after integrating his predecessors' knowledge of formations, he no longer took the Taiyi Thirteen Formations, such a low-level formation, seriously.

Ye Feng looked at Yan Kai and the others with a mocking gaze, like a cat looking at a mouse. The funniest thing was that this mouse was oblivious to its own mortality and kept running into the cat.

Yan Kai keenly caught Ye Feng's gaze. Looking into Ye Feng's eyes, Yan Kai felt a surge of anger. Damn it, we've been searching for so long, and now he's still so arrogant. Who does he think he is?
"Ye Feng, today is your death day." Yan Kai said fiercely, staring at Ye Feng.

"Is that so? I'm right here. Come and kill me then." Ye Feng looked at Yan Kai with an air of supreme authority.

Ye Feng's arrogant tone ignited Yan Kai's anger even more. However, Yan Kai was a shrewd and calculating man. Although he was furious, he knew that he might not be Ye Feng's match in a one-on-one fight.

"This kid is definitely trying to provoke me into going into the formation to fight him to the death. I'm not that stupid," Yan Kai thought to himself.

Yan Kai was determined not to fight Ye Feng head-on. The Taiyi Thirteen Formations had already trapped Ye Feng. He just needed to wait for the Taiyi Thirteen Formations to complete their killing move. Yan Kai didn't believe Ye Feng could withstand it inside. Instead, he would beat Ye Feng half to death and see how this kid could still be so arrogant.

Having made up his mind, Yan Kai naturally didn't want to lose face, so he looked at Ye Feng and said mockingly, "I'm right here, so come out and hit me, come on then."

"Damn, I've never heard such a shameless request before. Well then, I'll grant your wish," Ye Feng said from within the formation, as he drew his Crimson Fire Sword, preparing to attack Yan Kai.

"Hmph." Seeing Ye Feng's actions, Yan Kai sneered disdainfully. With the array protecting him, what was he afraid of? As for Ye Feng, in Yan Kai's opinion, he was too young to be so easily provoked and wanted to make a move. What did he want to do? Was he going to attack the defensive barrier? Don't be ridiculous.
Yan Kai had prepared a lot of words, just waiting to mock Ye Feng after Ye Feng's attack on the defensive barrier failed. But what happened before Yan Kai's eyes was unbelievable.

Yan Kai stared wide-eyed at the scene before him. Ye Feng was alone with his sword. Yan Kai saw that Ye Feng had only swung his sword once, which was not strong at all, and could even be said to be very weak.

However, with just this one strike, the defensive barrier that Yan Kai had thought to be strong and sturdy was actually shattered by Ye Feng.

What's going on? Am I hallucinating? Yan Kai stared blankly at the scene before him.

However, the fact that the thirteen guardians simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood confirmed that it was not a problem with the formation, nor an illusion, but that Ye Feng had indeed shattered the formation.

The formation is closely related to the caster. Once the formation is broken, the caster will naturally suffer great damage. This one blow almost temporarily rendered the Thirteen Protectors unable to fight. This is also why Ye Feng was able to escape easily after Xuanlong broke the formation.

Ye Feng broke the formation not by brute force, but by using his understanding of the formation to find the weakness of the Taiyi Thirteen Formations in a short moment.

By focusing his power on the weakest point of the formation, Ye Feng easily broke it.

Of course, this weak point is a mysterious existence. If you don't understand formations, you will never find the weak point of the formation.

However, not all formations can be broken so easily. If they were, then the existence of formations would be meaningless. It is only relatively weak formations like the Taiyi Thirteen Formations that have so many weaknesses.

That's right, it's weak. The Taiyi Thirteen Formations that caused Ye Feng a lot of trouble back then are now considered very weak by Ye Feng. This is because Ye Feng already has countless sets of formation memories in his mind, and even the weakest of these formations are stronger than the Taiyi Thirteen Formations.

"I'm here." Ye Feng continued moving without stopping after breaking the formation, and quickly swung the Crimson Fire Sword towards Yan Kai.

Yan Kai, being a mid-stage Spirit God martial artist, quickly recovered from his shock. At the same time, the light of his blade flashed as he met Ye Feng's attack. Yan Kai had used a martial skill in this attack.

At this moment, Yan Kai noticed that Ye Feng's sword strike was delivered without using any martial arts techniques. It is known that not using martial arts techniques would significantly weaken the power, so Yan Kai would naturally have a great advantage if he had used martial arts techniques.

Just as Yan Kai was gloating, thinking Ye Feng was being careless again due to his rival in love, he noticed a strange smile on Ye Feng's face. Yan Kai had seen this smile before. At first, when Ye Feng was still in the Taiyi Thirteen Formations, Yan Kai thought Ye Feng was just pretending. But now, Yan Kai had a feeling of unease.

"Not good." The moment Yan Kai's knife touched Ye Feng's sword, Yan Kai felt a force surging through his body, instantly damaging his internal organs.

Yan Kai was shocked and quickly circulated his internal energy to resist this force.

Ye Feng's attack just now utilized the internal energy he had comprehended in the secret realm, which was used by a senior expert. This internal energy was indeed very insidious, capable of directly injuring the opponent's body when fighting head-on.

It's important to understand that not everyone has a body as abnormal as Ye Feng's. On the contrary, most martial artists' physical abilities are simply incomparable to Ye Feng's. Therefore, if caught off guard by Ye Feng's attack, they would at least be knocked down and seriously injured.

Seeing that Yan Kai wanted to resist, Ye Feng gave him no chance. He activated the Heavenly Wind Step and moved forward rapidly.

"Double Blazing Slashes"

Ye Feng slashed down with his sword, this time using martial arts techniques.

A glint flashed in Yan Kai's eyes. This internal force was suppressing Yan Kai so much that he couldn't muster his own true essence. If he couldn't muster his true essence in the face of Ye Feng's attack, he would surely die.

Therefore, Yan Kai did not hesitate and used the secret technique he had used in his previous battle with Ye Feng. It should be noted that every time Yan Kai uses a secret technique, his lifespan will be reduced, so under normal circumstances, Yan Kai is unwilling to use secret techniques.

However, if they didn't use it now, they would probably be doomed. At this moment, Yan Kai still decisively used the secret technique.

With the secret technique unleashed, the internal energy Ye Feng had injected into Yan Kai's body was forcibly broken through by Yan Kai. Yan Kai unleashed a powerful burst of true energy, and the light of the narrow blade in his hand shone even more brightly, causing even the ground around Yan Kai to tremble slightly.

However, Ye Feng remained unmoved. This situation was exactly what Ye Feng had expected. It was also a good opportunity for Ye Feng to test the power of the strange fire, since the strange fire was still just a flame after all.

Mobilizing the blue flames in his chest, Ye Feng's crimson sword glowed with a blue light, and at the same time, he activated his divine and demonic power.

"Die!" Ye Feng roared at Yan Kai.

"boom."

After the explosion, Ye Feng was completely unaffected. On the contrary, Yan Kai collapsed with an incredulous expression. The attack had burned his internal organs with an unknown flame, and with his internal organs completely destroyed, Yan Kai was beyond saving.

"How could this be?" Yan Kai looked at Ye Feng with a resentful expression. At the same time, Yan Kai was filled with resentment, but the things in front of him began to blur, and Yan Kai fell asleep.
