Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

"Okay, let's go together then."

Cai'er sensed Medusa's determination and did not stop her.

Blindly protecting someone doesn't always work. Medusa wasn't a weak child; she was the queen of the snake people.

Trusting her is the basic respect Cai'er shows her.

Cai'er's eyes slowly hardened. She also wanted to survive, so the best solution was for the two of them to support each other, extend the interval between the barrier's activation, and hold on until Han Feng discovered their situation.

If things truly reach a point of no return, then sacrificing myself to let Medusa live is my responsibility as her older sister.

Medusa felt the same way.

After overcoming her inner demons, she realized that she no longer harbored any resentment towards Cai'er.

She was willing to give up her own life so that the other person could live.

Before that, they both need to persevere. Living or dying is the bottom line. If both of them can survive, that would be the best outcome.

Besides, they are not without hope; Han Feng is their support.

We must hold out until Han Feng discovers them!

--------

Han Feng quickly traversed the Xuan Snake Secret Realm.

After Medusa and Cai'er entered, they were directly pulled into the secret realm and entered another space.

Enveloped in dense moisture, that space was mysterious and indistinct, impossible to pinpoint directly with spiritual power.

Han Feng could only search quickly within the secret realm, relying on that faint sense of direction to determine his location.

Swish!

A subtle current of air suddenly emanated from the space, and Han Feng's eyes instantly sharpened.

His body transformed into light and shadow, appearing instantly at the spot where the commotion had occurred.

The surroundings were still shrouded in a misty fog, making it unclear and preventing the soul force from probing.

hum!

Han Feng stomped his foot, and Hai Xinyan flew out from behind him, carrying a piece of black tortoise shell, directly transforming into a giant Xuanwu.

Roar! ! !

The power of Xuanwu spread, and the surrounding moisture instantly receded. Han Feng reached out and struck the space in front of him.

Click!

With a single strike, the hidden spatial entrance shattered.

Han Feng rushed in quickly, and before he could even stand still, he saw the two people struggling to hold on inside the barrier.

Cai'er's clothes were torn and her arms were covered in wounds. Medusa's legs trembled and her long black hair was disheveled.

Swish!

Han Feng's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and the Supreme Soul-Slaying Sword he was nurturing in his sea of ​​consciousness trembled violently.

The next instant, a small black sword shot out from the spiritual platform and slashed towards the blood-red barrier.

boom!

The intense killing intent shattered the Xuan Snake Law, and the blood-red giant python looked at the gap in the barrier in shock.

A dark shadow struck, and before the giant python could react, its body was cleaved in two.

Han Feng passed through the upper half of the giant python and stood still, holding a small, black snake in his hand.

"Han Feng!"

"Han Feng!"

Cai'er and Medusa looked at the long-awaited figure and wept with joy.

Cai'er's tense body relaxed instantly, and she couldn't help but fall to the ground.

However, she didn't fall; instead, she landed in Han Feng's arms.

Cai'er looked at the familiar face before her and smiled gently.

"You came."

"Sorry I'm a little late."

"It's not too late, everything is just right."

After saying that, Cai'er closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Han Feng pursed his lips and gently smoothed the strands of hair on Cai'er's forehead.

Medusa felt a slight bitterness in her heart as she watched Han Feng's gentle actions towards Cai'er.

At this moment, I really envy Cai'er.

But it's so good that everyone is alive.

Medusa smiled gently and closed her eyes.

Seeing that Medusa was also unable to hold on, Han Feng sent out his fighting spirit to support her and gently laid her down.

Medusa's injuries were less severe than Cai'er's, but they weren't much better.

Han Feng took out two pills and put them into Cai'er's and Medusa's mouths respectively.

I will personally refine the specific medicinal pills for warming and nourishing treatment later; for now, I will focus on emergency recovery.

After doing all this, Han Feng looked at the black snake that was blocked in mid-air.

He sensed an aura from the black serpent that shared the same origin as Xuanwu, but it was very weak, so weak that even he, a one-star Dou Sheng, could capture it in a single move.

However, for a Dou Zun who has not mastered the complete power of the laws, the power of the black serpent is still very strong.

No wonder Cai'er, with her strength, suffered such serious injuries.

"The Black Serpent?"

Han Feng said softly.

His spiritual power reached out towards the long black snake.

hiss!

The long black snake instinctively lunged at Han Feng's soul, its eyes filled with ferocity.

Legend has it that Xuanwu has two heads: a tortoise head that is steady and powerful, with four legs supporting its back and reaching to the sky, and a snake head that is unpredictable and capable of launching powerful attacks.

Swish!

A silver chain flew out from Han Feng's soul and bound him tightly.

Innate magnetic field!

As soon as the metallic spiritual object appeared, the black snake deflated instantly and shrank.

Han Feng was somewhat surprised, but then he seemed to realize something.

"Afraid of the metal element? Are you afraid of the White Tiger?"

In the scene I saw at the place of Xuanwu's inheritance, the Water Ancestor Xuanwu was killed by the White Tiger's golden energy.

But the difference between the innate magnetic field and the golden energy of the White Tiger is too great; they are not even in the same league.

The innate magnetic field was only an eighth-grade spiritual object. Even if it grew along with Han Feng, it could only barely reach the level of a near-ninth-grade.

Compared to the power of the White Tiger, one of the Four Divine Beasts, it wouldn't even be enough to defeat one of its claws.

However, the Xuan Snake was now completely intimidated, and Han Feng continued to move his soul power closer to it.

The moment they touched each other, a flash of white light appeared, and the remaining soul imprints on the Xuan Snake transformed into images that appeared in Han Feng's sea of ​​consciousness.

The moment the White Tiger's golden energy struck the Black Tortoise, the water vapor in the surrounding area was severed, and the Black Tortoise's last breath dissipated.

However, after an unknown period of time, traces of living beings appeared in this place. They brought water from outside, allowing the moisture in this land to recover at a very slow pace. The resentment remaining on Xuanwu moved towards its source along with this wisp of restored underground moisture, which was the ancestral land of the snake people, the place where the snake people first took root.

With the help of the Black Serpent, the Serpent People grew stronger and were able to survive and continue in the harsh environment of the Tagor Desert. At the same time, the Serpent People also passed down a series of ancient and outdated rules.

For example, there can only be one Medusa Queen in each generation. If a snake-man with great talent appears and may become the second queen, the two sides will be forced to duel, killing the weaker side and leaving the stronger side alive.

Another example is the practice of sacrifice, in which people offer sacrifices to their clansmen in order to gain a longer life.

Customs like these are actually ghosts created by the Black Serpent, or more accurately, ghosts created by the resentment within the Black Tortoise.

After understanding the whole story, Han Feng slowly opened his eyes.

Sensing the primal malice emanating from the Xuan Snake, Han Feng seemed to see the anger and confusion of the Xuanwu before its death.

Han Feng sighed softly.

As the inheritor of the Xuanwu Method, what is happening before my eyes is clearly negative.

“I deeply sympathize with what you have gone through, but that is not a reason for you to hurt my family.”

"I will help you pass on to the afterlife; your resentment should not remain in this world."

Han Feng's eyes sharpened, and the Nanming Fire in his hand suddenly rose.

Wow!

The flames that burned away all evil thoughts enveloped the black serpent.

Sizzle sizzle!

The hiss of the black serpent rang out from the flames, and wisps of black mist rose up. After being refined by the Southern Bright Fire, they were transformed into pure water elemental power and clusters of snake-human blood essence.

Golden light flashed in Han Feng's eyes. The Bodhi Sutra was activated, and Buddhist light seeped into the Nanming Fire, together converting the remnant thoughts of the Xuan Snake.

"rest in peace."

Wow!

The flames burned away all evil. Han Feng clasped his hands together, respectfully sending off the last lingering remnant of Xuanwu's will to depart from this world.

hum!

A faint light shone on the Xuanwu tortoise shell, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed. All the power accumulated over thousands of years in the entire Xuanshe Secret Realm surged into the tortoise shell.

Han Feng looked at the movement made by the tortoise shell with surprise and doubt, picked up Cai'er and Medusa with one hand each, and quickly retreated.

However, a beam of light shot out from the tortoise shell faster than he was retreating.

The beam of light primarily targeted Han Feng, while two other faint beams of light flew towards Cai'er and Medusa.

"This is......"

The moment he received the light, Han Feng understood what it was.

The power of water vapor condensed over thousands of years is truly immense.

Feeling the continuous gifts from the other party, Han Feng carefully accepted them, and at the same time, a shocking thought occurred to him.

Could it be that Xuanwu is still alive?

He stared at the gleaming black tortoise shell, his eyes filled with an inscrutable expression.

The pure energy within his body helped Han Feng's Dou Qi cultivation improve, and in just a few breaths, Han Feng touched the barrier of a two-star Dou Sheng.

He cleared his mind of distractions and focused all his energy on circulating the "Xuanwu Heavenly Ancestor Scripture" and the "Burning Technique".

At the same time, Cai'er and Medusa also received gifts from Xuanwu.

Not only was all the lost essence blood returned, but some Xuanwu power was also added.

Pure water is an excellent healing energy. Cai'er and Medusa's injuries were completely healed in just a few minutes, and their internal realms reached a state of perfect harmony due to the harmonization of the water element.

Medusa silently broke through the Dou Zun realm in her sleep and advanced to the eighth rank.

Cai'er reached the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Zun realm, and then, under the baptism of the water element, successfully completed the first, second, and third transformations.

Compared to Medusa, Cai'er's gains were significantly greater.

This is because she lost more in the process of resisting the Xuan Snake, so she will gain more as well.

Time passed slowly, and Han Feng, having finally encountered a rare opportunity to break through his cultivation level, dared not give up easily and focused on his practice.

On the flying spirit ship outside the ancestral land of the snake people, Lin Xian'er and the others waited for a long time but did not see Han Feng return, and they were a little worried.
