Living as a Mortal: Grinding Experience Starting from the Underworld

The unexpected situation left the other cultivators momentarily bewildered.

Apart from a few Core Formation cultivators with exceptional spiritual sense who could see what was happening in the thick fog, everyone else was completely baffled.

"Redfire rebelled and was then ambushed and killed!"

Han Li repelled the attacking puppet with a single sword strike and muttered to himself.

"The situation is complicated; it would be best to leave now!"

Without any hesitation, Han Li first sent a telepathic message to Zi Ling, leaving behind hundreds of puppets and a white jade spider. Then, he and Qu Hun set up two escape lights, one green and one red, and instantly disappeared dozens of feet away.

"Senior Chi Huo? Elder Zhang?"

Surprise flashed in Zi Ling's eyes. Chi Huo unexpectedly betrayed her and was instantly killed by Zhang Feng.

A moment later, Zi Ling was overjoyed. Chi Huo's betrayal meant defeat for her side, but Zhang Feng intervened and turned the tide.

Now that we have the upper hand, wouldn't we be able to avenge our great grudge?

"Gentlemen, Chi Huo rebelled and has been killed by the guest elder of my Miaoyin Sect."

"Now only the Extreme Yin Demon, who has used possession magic, remains. As long as we kill the remaining members of Extreme Yin Island and join forces with the two seniors, we will surely achieve victory!"

With the help of a secret technique, Zi Ling's voice spread throughout Scorpion Island.

"snort!"

With a cold snort, Ji Yin thought, "This Zi Ling is quite clever; she knows how to use the situation to win people's hearts."

However, Ji Yin used one hand to forcefully capture the Cold Dawn Pearl in his palm in an instant, then tilted his head back and swallowed it.

These self-controlling techniques must not be kept by outsiders.

"My main body is already leading the disciples of our sect and is on its way here."

"If anyone foolish enough to remain here, this patriarch will surely execute them without mercy!"

The ear-piercing demonic sound erupted from Ji Yin's hand once again, demonstrating his formidable strength.

These words struck everyone's minds like a heavy hammer.

"cough!"

Sect Master Sun spat out a mouthful of blood. The magic weapon was swallowed by the Extreme Yin, which forcibly severed the connection. He was seriously injured.

"Hahaha, old ghost, your true form is severely injured. If you manage to come here, you'll probably be stopped by your enemies halfway!"

Despite his injuries, Sect Leader Sun laughed loudly.

Ji Yin's face was cold and gloomy. His divine sense swept across the battlefield. More than a dozen puppets were chasing the enemy, but several people had already fled upon hearing the news.

Many disciples of Jiyin Island have died or been injured, and there are still two tough nuts to crack in front of them.

The trip was unsuccessful and resulted in significant losses.

After a moment's thought, Ji Yin recalled more than ten Heavenly Capital Refined Puppets to protect himself.

The threat of Nascent Soul cultivators still caused everyone to ponder, and many cautious cultivators immediately wavered and fled without regard for the consequences.

"Brother Zhang, hurry, let's join forces and take down the Extreme Yin!"

"I only ask that you kill the Ugly Crow possessed by the Extreme Yin, and you can take any other magical treasures and valuables you desire, brother. Furthermore, my Scorpion Island has an even greater gift for you!"

Sect Leader Sun first silently increased the distance between himself and Zhang Feng, and then transmitted his voice.

Zhang Feng noticed his subtle movements, but remained unmoved, and put the Crimson Fire Monster's corpse along with the storage bag into his possession.

The situation is clear: all we need to do is join forces to deal with the extreme Yin, but...

Zhang Feng glanced at the excited Sect Leader Sun out of the corner of his eye. This was Scorpion Island, his base camp.

If I join forces with him to deal with Ji Yin, I'll probably have to face his Scorpion Island Formation.

We must fight against the extreme Yin, but we must be even more wary of Sect Master Sun.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, you use the Scorpion Island formation to control this fiend, and I will deliver the final blow!"

Zhang Feng sent a telepathic message back, and the three Langshui Xuanyu swords floated quietly beside him, radiating a bone-chilling cold.

"Um!"

A glint of light flashed in Sect Leader Sun's eyes, and he nodded in agreement.

He released a large amount of spiritual power from his hands, connecting it to the land of Scorpion Island, and five pillars of magma and fire shot into the sky.

The strangely shaped rocky peaks, resembling scorpion tails, rise high into the sky.

Several streams of blood-red spiritual energy shot into the sky, encircling the five pillars of magma fire.

hum!

The earth trembled violently, and two layers of formations shot into the sky, merging with the "scorpion tail" in mid-air to form a giant, blood-red scorpion shape.

The scorpion's barb on its tail points directly towards the direction where it stands in extreme yin.

"Heh, it seems you, my traitorous disciple, have managed Scorpion Island quite well."

"To think they could set up such a precise and ingenious formation."

Ji Yin chuckled, showing no sign of panic.

More than a dozen puppet guards stood beside him, clearly in full defensive posture.

However, it was something carried on one of the puppets that caught his attention.

Could it be that his true form is really heading this way?

Upon seeing this scene, both Zhang Feng and Sect Leader Sun had the same thought in their minds.

"Thank you for the compliment, Master."

"So what if your true form arrives? At worst, you can just hide in the Sky-Piercing Mist Sea for a few more decades."

"Once I destroy this clone of yours, how many years will you have left to live after suffering a double blow?"

Sect Leader Sun forcibly suppressed his thoughts and shouted sternly.

At the same time, both hands controlled the Scorpion Island formation to begin operating at full power.

The blood-red scorpion moved slowly as if it were alive, with a solid scorpion tail hundreds of feet high behind it, where spiritual energy gathered.

Bang!

A nearly ten-foot-wide beam of red spiritual energy crashed down with lightning speed.

The dozen or so puppets guarding Ji Yin were scattered by the pillar of light in an instant.

Undeterred in its power and momentum, the beam of light pierced straight through Ji Yin's body.

"Quickly, Fellow Daoist Zhang, make your move!"

Seeing that Ji Yin was trapped again, Sect Leader Sun spoke with excitement.

Without pausing for a moment, Zhang Feng's three Langshui Xuanyu swords, imbued with a deep blue, extremely cold spiritual power, instantly transformed into three blue rainbows, arranged in a "品" shape, rotating and approaching the extreme Yin.

not good!

Ji Yin sensed the extreme cold power emanating from the flying sword and realized something was wrong.

Possessing Wu Chou's body imposed too many restrictions, limiting the supernatural powers he could unleash, and all of them were suppressed.

boom!

A series of explosions rang out.

Zhang Feng frowned. He sensed that the flying sword had not hit its target, and even the extreme cold of the ice marrow within it had not been released.

What was that explosion sound?

"Hahaha, Scorpion Island, Wonderful Sound Sect, this patriarch will remember you."

"Next time we meet, I will show no mercy!"

The eerie sound echoed throughout Scorpion Island.

Zhang Feng focused his gaze on the air above, using all his divine sense to perceive the surroundings.

Several dark brown figures appeared, forming a circle around each other, creating an array. Unknown and mysterious runes flowed around all of them.

Originally there were more than ten puppets, but now there are only five or six left.

It turned out that the spiritual power from the puppet's self-destruction had blocked Zhang Feng's attack.

"Disciples of Extreme Yin Island, retreat!"

In the middle of the dark brown figure, Ji Yin quietly watched Zhang Feng and the others. After a moment, Ji Yin's appearance gradually disappeared, and he returned to his ugly, black appearance.

"Zhang Feng, Martial Uncle Sun, and Zi Yatou, until we meet again!"

Wu Chou clutched his chest, his expression sinister.

Whoosh!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the figures of the disciples from Extreme Yin Island blurred for a moment and then vanished into the space.

Extreme Yin has escaped!

Zhang Feng remained calm; he had anticipated this situation when he decided to take action.

The fact that Wu Chou and his group were able to escape so suddenly means they must have had a way to escape, especially since this method was used by Ji Yin.

Even though Zhang Feng could suppress the extreme Yin supernatural power, the hidden techniques of a Nascent Soul cultivator were beyond the comprehension of a Core Formation cultivator like himself.

"Hmph, it's such a pity he got away~"

"Don't you agree, Brother Zhang?"

When Sect Leader Sun saw Ji Yin escape, his expression relaxed. He then smiled at Zhang Feng, but a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Zhang, our sect wants your magic weapon."

Swish!

As Sect Leader Sun spoke, the "scorpion tail" above his head instantly changed direction, and a blood-red beam of light enveloped Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng's gaze was icy, and he didn't hesitate for a moment.

His body spun in mid-air, and he activated the Thousand Waves Technique at full power.

Aquamarine spiritual energy continuously evolved within his body.

Splash!

Zhang Feng's figure transformed into a stream of spiritual energy several feet in size, meandering and flowing unpredictably, yet as swift as the wind, flashing and flying rapidly in mid-air.

"Impossible, such speed of escape, you..."

Before Sect Leader Sun's sinister smile had faded, Zhang Feng had already arrived in front of him in a few flashes.
