Mortal: Li Feiyu, who came from the realm of a supreme being

Li Feiyu's sudden appearance startled the group of Ghost Spirit Sect disciples in the cave, all of whom harbored ulterior motives.

The cave was not spacious, with a height of no more than three zhang (approximately 10 meters), which was a bit cramped for cultivators who were used to fighting at medium and long range, but for Li Feiyu, it was an excellent place for close combat.

A mere warning is hardly enough to deter these treacherous disciples who live on the edge of death.

Li Feiyu didn't want to be besieged, so he had to use the most ruthless methods to destroy their will to resist in an instant.

His gaze locked onto the demonic disciple who had narrowly escaped last time; the disciple's face still held a trace of shock. A cold smile curved Li Feiyu's lips, and his figure suddenly blurred!

In the next instant, he appeared before the man like a ghost, and in the man's horrified gaze, he lightly placed a palm on his chest.

"puff!"

A dull, strange sound rang out, not from broken bones, but something far more eerie.

The disciple trembled violently, his whole body collapsing as if his bones had been removed. But strangely, a perfectly intact, even blood-stained, pale skeleton "took off" from his limp body and was sent flying by Li Feiyu's palm strike, landing with a thud several feet away!

The body, now without the support of a skeleton, lay on the ground like a pile of mud. Only the head remained intact, its mouth opening and closing in vain, emitting a "hoarse" sound. Its eyes were filled with extreme pain and confusion, yet it had not died for a time!

This terrifying scene instantly drained all sound and warmth from the cave.

Several Ghost Spirit Sect disciples' pupils contracted to their maximum, their stomachs churned, and the hairs on their bodies stood on end!

They have killed many people, and their methods are ruthless, but have they ever seen such a bizarre, cruel, and almost sorcerous way of dying?

Fear spread like a plague. Someone let out a horrifying scream and turned to flee frantically towards the cave entrance. With someone leading the way, the rout began immediately. Missions, envoys—none of it mattered in the face of such terrifying death.

"Stop! Don't..." Zhongwu was both shocked and angry. He tried to shout to regain his footing, but the collapse was already inevitable.

He reacted extremely quickly. Seeing Li Feiyu's cold gaze sweep over him, he immediately realized that the situation was hopeless. Without hesitation, he took advantage of his proximity to the cave entrance, released a cloud of black smoke, and then sped away.

Li Feiyu did not immediately pursue. His figure flashed again, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. With a flick of his fingers, he easily killed two Ghost Spirit Sect disciples who were a beat slower due to shock.

Only then did he leisurely slip out of the cave. With a quick glance, he saw that the five who had escaped had split into three groups and disappeared into the forest.

One person went with Zhong Wu towards the central area, two people fled towards the Blazing Flame Cave, and the last person ran desperately towards the outer area.

Li Feiyu hesitated for a moment. In the central area, there was that old monster Xiang Zhili. He was currently disguised as a disciple of Huadaowu. If he approached rashly and was discovered, the other party probably wouldn't even bother to pretend and would just crush him to death with a single finger.

It's true that he once cultivated himself into a celestial being, but circumstances are beyond one's control, and one must admit defeat when necessary. For now, it's still best to avoid his sharp edge.

He moved swiftly, choosing to chase after the disciple on the outer edge.

During the pursuit, the divine sense vaguely detected that the disciple who fled to the central area seemed to have run into the Hidden Moon Sect team led by Nangong Wan, and then his aura disappeared.

Li Feiyu felt a chill run down her spine and immediately took a much larger detour to avoid that area.

Nangong Wan... She has a lot of people with her. Once a fight breaks out, she will definitely kill them. It would be a waste to make enemies for no reason.

Moreover, regardless of whether the Immortal Realm chapter exists or not, he now has to avoid even the sharp edge of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, let alone the Lord of Samsara Palace.

To be honest, he felt physically uncomfortable just hearing the word "reincarnation"!

Back on the outskirts, Li Feiyu was somewhat disheartened.

After a thorough search, the haul was found to be far less than expected.

The truly excellent magical artifacts that could help his future plans are probably only possessed by a handful of people, such as Feng Yue, Duobao Nu, and Han Tianya.

Most ordinary disciples were either dirt poor or carried some common goods of limited value.

The "purchasing" target was not met satisfactorily.

In his eagerness to obtain the key, he missed the most chaotic initial phase of the battle. Now, two days later, the survivors have either succeeded and gone into hiding, or have become extremely vigilant and cunning.

"Forget it, let's go check out the Blazing Flame Cave." Li Feiyu recalled the plot of the original novel, where Han Li seemed to have met Han Yunzhi and done something "good"... It would be interesting to catch him in the act.

He concealed his presence and quietly crept towards the Blazing Flame Cave.

Before long, they approached the area of ​​the mountain wall that was glowing red from the lava.

Even from a distance, his keen hearing had already picked up on the subtle movements.

Concealing his presence, he quietly approached and saw Han Li gently placing the unconscious Han Yunzhi on the ground beside a relatively secluded stone house.

The girl had a beautiful face, her eyes were closed, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.

Han Li held a pale blue pill in his hand, about to feed it to the child, but paused slightly.

He gazed at the girl's peaceful sleeping face with a complicated expression for a moment, and then, as if possessed, he quickly leaned down and lightly touched her smooth cheek.

The moment they separated, Han Li straightened up abruptly as if he had been burned. A look of annoyance and embarrassment flashed across his face. He looked around and, seeing that no one was around, breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head, and prepared to continue feeding the medicine.

"Tsk tsk tsk..." A mocking voice suddenly came from behind a boulder nearby.

Han Li froze, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and almost threw the pill away.

He suddenly turned his head and saw Li Feiyu leaning against a rock with his arms crossed, a half-smile on his face, clearly having been watching for more than a while.

"Li! Fei! Yu!" Han Li's face flushed red, whether from embarrassment or anger, he roared in a low voice, "You, when did you get here?!"

"Hmm... From that sigh, the sneak attack, to embracing the soft, fragrant body, and finally stealing her away, I saw it all clearly," Li Feiyu said slowly, each word like a needle pricking Han Li's face.

Han Li was so angry that the veins on his forehead throbbed. He felt that the tense and murderous atmosphere of this blood-red forbidden area had been completely disrupted by Li Feiyu's arrival, turning into an awkward and absurd scene.

"You...you stop talking nonsense! I'm...I'm doing this for her own good!"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's for her own good, so I'll give her a kiss first." Li Feiyu nodded, with an "I understand" expression on her face. "Young Master Han is indeed chivalrous and considerate."

"..." Han Li was speechless, glared at him fiercely, and ignored his brother's teasing.

He quickly gave Han Yunzhi the Forget-Dust Pill, and then carefully checked her condition. After confirming that she was alright, he settled her in a more secluded place.

After finishing, he walked back to Li Feiyu's side, the blush on his face fading slightly, and asked, "What have you been wandering around here for? Have you finished your business?"

"More or less, I guess I've finished one task," Li Feiyu said vaguely, then asked, "What about you? How much of the Foundation Establishment Pill's main ingredient are you still missing?"

Han Li shook his head: "We're still missing two ingredients; we might have to go further in."

Li Feiyu pointed to the depths of the mist, where the outlines of ancient buildings were faintly visible: "There seems to be a blue stone hall over there. It looks quite old. Maybe it has what you're looking for. How about I go with you for a look? I can be your bodyguard."

Han Li's heart did indeed flutter.

He acted alone for the past two days, and although he escaped unscathed thanks to his strength and caution, he remained on edge the whole time.

With a psychopath like Li Feiyu by my side, I feel incredibly safe.

After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head: "Forget it, I'll go by myself. I have to experience it myself." He knew that Li Feiyu had his own things to do, and that relying too much on others was not the way to cultivate immortality.

Li Feiyu had only said it casually, and nodded upon hearing this: "Okay, then be careful. If you encounter someone you can't beat, don't force it, just run away if you need to, there's no shame in it."

"Do you need to tell me?" Han Li replied irritably, then glanced at the direction where Han Yunzhi was hiding before turning and sneaking towards the Qing Shi Hall.

After watching Han Li leave, Li Feiyu stretched.

All the preliminary preparations have been completed. Now we just need to wait for the forbidden area to close and for Xiang Zhili to leave before we can take action.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to wander around this second level area some more, find a few demonic beasts to practice against, and incidentally... "encounter" a worthy elite disciple.

To make the act convincing, he had to put himself in a state of "serious injury" and inability to move before the forbidden area closed. This way, even if Xiang Zhili used his Nascent Soul level divine sense to scan the entire Crimson Forbidden Area before leaving, he wouldn't have any suspicions.

After all, he was the last to leave the Crimson Forbidden Land, and it's uncertain what he might do, so it's best to be cautious...
