Mortal: I have a Spirit Gathering Cauldron

Sensing the commotion outside, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

coming.

He stood up, put away the array flags of the Lesser Four Symbols Sealing Array, and pushed open the door to go out.

The sight outside caused his pupils to contract slightly.

Above the camp, the originally gray sky was illuminated by various spiritual lights.

On the protective array's light barrier, countless Taoist spells and magical artifacts poured down like a torrential rain, crashing against the barrier and creating ripples.

The light shield shook violently, its light flickering and emitting a buzzing tremor.

Alarms blared incessantly, but there was no panic within the formation. After all, the cultivators from the seven sects had been training on the battlefield for over a year, and their reactions were extremely swift.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators leading each faction immediately organized their teams and led their disciples toward their respective defensive positions.

Under the command of the Foundation Establishment cultivators, the Qi Refining disciples formed various battle formations. Some held magical artifacts and lined up in front, some activated talismans and were ready to unleash their power, and some were responsible for maintaining the operation of the formations.

In an instant, all sorts of colorful spiritual lights shot into the sky, intertwining with the attacks from outside the formation, turning the entire sky into a bizarre and colorful picture.

Lin Feng followed in the Yellow Maple Valley's group, engaging in a skillful exchange of magical artifacts and spells with the Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators outside the formation.

But he was cautious.

While urging his Wind-Breaking Spear to fight a demonic cultivator outside the formation, he subtly moved towards the edge of the camp.

As he continued to move, his position gradually shifted from the center of the camp to the very edge of the camp's formation.

Here, the defensive light shield is less than ten feet away. Once the formation breaks, he can rush out of the camp immediately and escape in the predetermined direction.

While exchanging blows with the demonic cultivators outside the formation, Lin Feng secretly observed the battle situation high in the sky.

The battlefield of Core Formation cultivators was thousands of feet above the camp, where the spiritual light was even more dazzling and the roar was even more intense than on the ground.

Streaks of spiritual light weaved through the clouds, colliding violently and exploding into blinding bursts of light. Occasionally, a shockwave would fall from the sky, crashing to the ground and creating craters several meters deep.

Lin Feng couldn't see the specific situation up there, but he could sense that the battle there was even more brutal than on the ground.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from high above.

It wasn't the sound of clashing spells, but a deeper, more destructive roar. The sound was so loud that the ground trembled.

Immediately afterwards, a hoarse, furious roar exploded, filled with anger and despair.

"Damn traitor!"

Lin Feng's heart sank.

As expected, Spirit Beast Mountain betrayed them.

As the roar from high above fell, the defensive array's light screen in the camp suddenly began to flicker.

The array patterns seemed to be eroded by something, and the spiritual light began to extinguish piece by piece from the edges, making the operation of the array sluggish and chaotic.

Someone tampered with the formation.

The cultivators of Spirit Beast Mountain.

Lin Feng had no time to think. The moment the array's light screen began to dim, he opened the light barrier of the Crimson Gold Shield. Then, the Wind-Escape Shuttle beneath his feet shone brightly, and he transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the rear of the camp.

"boom--"

With a muffled bang, the light barrier of the defensive formation shattered completely.

Fragments of radiant light drifted through the air like a grand fireworks display, beautiful and dazzling. But that brilliance brought not joy, but death.

As the fragments of the array's spiritual light dissipated into the air, the cultivators of the seven sects were completely exposed to the demonic attack.

"It's...it's all over..."

A female cultivator from the Hidden Moon Sect witnessed this scene and her face instantly turned deathly pale. Just as she was about to turn around and flee towards the rear of the camp, several beams of demonic magical light flew in from outside the formation, piercing through her spiritual energy shield and tearing her body apart.

Blood splattered, and bits of flesh flew everywhere.

The female cultivator's screams were short and shrill, then abruptly stopped.

Seeing this situation, the cultivators inside the formation completely lost the courage to continue resisting.

Fear spread like a plague among the crowd. Some shouted "Run!", some turned and ran, and some collapsed to the ground.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators who were organizing their defenses just moments before now had no time to care about battle formations or orders. They set up their magical artifacts and fled in all directions.

In an instant, the entire camp was thrown into chaos.

Some were being hunted down by the demonic forces, their screams echoing everywhere; others fought bravely, their magical artifacts clashing and clanging; still others took advantage of the chaos to loot supplies.

Various colors of spiritual light intertwined, and the sounds of magical artifacts colliding, spells exploding, screams, and curses blended together, like a pot of boiling porridge.

Anyone who runs too slowly will be mercilessly torn to pieces by the demonic cultivators.

Lin Feng did not look back.

He pushed the Wind Shuttle to its limit, and the silvery-white light drew a long tail in the hazy sky as it sped away towards the rear of the battlefield.

Behind them, booming sounds and screams could still be heard from the direction of the main camp, but the sounds were getting farther and farther away and more and more indistinct.

The sky was filled with streams of light of various colors.

Some soared into the sky and flew away in different directions; others were struck by several magical artifacts at the same time, fell from the sky, crashed to the ground, and never moved again.

Lin Feng ignored everyone else and flew forward without a care in the world.

One hour.

Two hours.

A whole day.

Lin Feng had no idea how far he had flown; the mountains and rivers beneath his feet swept past him, and he had no time to take a good look.

When his spiritual power was less than 30%, he finally slowed down his escape speed, intending to recover his mana. If he ran into pursuers, it would be even more dangerous if he didn't have enough mana.

Ahead lay a range of mountains, their peaks not high, but covered in lush vegetation. Lin Feng chose an inconspicuous hill and landed on it.

He found a secluded crevice in the rocks halfway up the mountain, dug a simple cave dwelling with his flying sword, and then set up a small Four Symbols Sealing Array to conceal it.

After doing all this, he took out the Spirit Concealing Veil from his storage bag, draped it over his body, and concealed his aura.

After doing all this, Lin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief and plopped down on the ground of the cave.

He took out a high-quality True Essence Pill from his storage bag and put it in his mouth.

As the elixir entered his stomach, its pure medicinal power dissolved in his meridians, transforming into a warm river that slowly replenished the depleted magical energy within his body. The golden true essence in his dantian, which had dimmed considerably, was now gradually recovering under the nourishment of the medicinal power.

Lin Feng closed his eyes and circulated his internal energy to accelerate the absorption of the medicine.

One hour later.

Just as Lin Feng was about to take out another high-quality True Essence Pill, his divine sense suddenly detected an unusual fluctuation.

Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hmm? Someone's here."

His expression became alert. He slowly extended his divine sense outwards, carefully sensing the outside world.

A moment later, three auras rushed in from the horizon.
