Secret techniques can enhance a cultivator's combat power, but they will also inevitably have certain disadvantages.

A superior secret technique minimizes its disadvantages by focusing on unimportant aspects, but a poor one often demands what is important to the cultivator, such as life itself.

A secret technique like the Bloodhorn Pattern, which maintains its peak value by absorbing external blood, is already considered a superior secret technique.

The Blood-Patterned Assassin stepped into the blood pool and began to accumulate the power of his blood patterns.

Next, they need to carry out the assassination of Xiao Tianbao, so they must maximize their energy levels.

Xiao Tianbao is no ordinary Dou Zun; he must possess life-saving artifacts crafted by the Xiao Clan.

Therefore, the assassination operation needs to be upgraded several levels, treating him as a mid-level Dou Zun.

Ta-ta-ta-ta.

Once inside the secret room, Han Feng's footsteps became increasingly loud.

The Bloodstained Assassin had just become wary when he felt his soul being swallowed by a tremendous suction force, and his mind went blank for a moment.

Han Feng probed the memories in the other party's mind, but in the next instant, a burst of blood energy exploded from the Blood Pattern Assassin's body.

In the blink of an eye, Han Feng swiftly used his soul to suppress and stabilize the blood rune power that was about to self-destruct.

This is a commonly used technique in alchemy, and Han Feng is very familiar with it.

"It's really weird."

The person from the Soul Palace in front of us automatically activated the self-destruct program after his soul was freed from control. He was just half a second away from disappearing along with his soul.

The power generated by the self-destruction was enough to severely injure a Dou Zun, which was quite terrifying.

Han Feng continued to probe the memories in the other person's soul. After quickly browsing through them, he frowned slightly.

The Bloodstained Assassins are unaware of each other's existence, only cooperating with each other when carrying out missions.

In this way, he would have no way of knowing the location of the other members of the Soul Palace.

"That's quite a scheme."

Han Feng said softly.

This time, the opponent is clearly more wary than those they've faced before.

The two are not on the same level.

The Deputy Hall Master of the Soul Hall is the second most important figure in the Soul Hall. Like the Hall Master, Soul Extinction, he is also a powerful figure who came from the Soul Clan. Most of the people under his command are descendants of the Soul Clan. Their execution and cohesion are unmatched by those recruited from outside the branch halls.

Han Feng casually examined the condition inside the blood-patterned assassin in his hand. His internal organs had completely exploded, turning into a mass of blood energy with immense destructive power.

Hopeless.

With a slight exertion of force, he extinguished the corpse along with its blood and energy.

At the same time, a red light flashed in the eyes of the deputy hall master, who was far away in Zhongzhou.

"Interesting, so they were waiting to make their move before showing up."

It seems that there is a powerful figure behind the Xiao family of Nanli.

The deputy hall master immediately notified the other two blood-patterned assassins to halt their plans and continue lying in wait.

----------

Inside the secret room.

Han Feng looked at the pool of blood before him, and a crimson flame ignited at his fingertips.

Myriad Beast Spirit Fire!

The blood slowly flowed towards the fire, and Han Feng carefully examined which magical beasts' blood was contained within it.

Using the aura of blood, he condensed the flames into a compass, sensing the location of the same blood aura.

The origins of the Dou Sheng powerhouses can already be traced back to their roots.

Even if you can't get clues from the soul, there are still ways to investigate.

Blood energy converged in the air to form a hidden line. Han Feng took a step forward and followed the trail of blood energy.

Half an hour later, Han Feng spotted a pedestrian walking on the road.

He remained calm and composed, as if he were not a Soul Hall assassin at all, and was even asking street vendors about the prices of some parts.

Han Feng remained indifferent. After locking onto the other party with his soul, he ignored him and continued searching for other members of the Soul Palace.

Another half hour passed, and the energy of the tracking bloodline in Han Feng's hand was exhausted and slowly dissipated.

He did not find the location of the other Bloodstained Assassin in Crimson Feather City, but only found a base that was empty.

After asking his neighbors, Han Feng learned that the other party had already run away.

Han Feng chuckled, took a step, and his body soared into the sky.

He conjured a long, flaming arrow in his hand and aimed it towards the south.

Running away is pointless.

In the eyes of a Dou Sheng powerhouse, once the aura is locked, they can pursue and kill the enemy across thousands of miles.

rub!

The flaming arrow streaked across the sky, leaving a beautiful trail of flame above the clouds.

Wow!

The arrows sped up faster and faster, and in no time they reached the fleeing blood-patterned assassin.

At this moment, the Bloodstained Assassin was hidden in the crowd, showing no signs of anything amiss.

However, the next second, a spark exploded in the sky, and everyone looked up in surprise to discover the beautiful flames in the sky.

Han Feng's arrow was not lethal; on the contrary, it was quite a sight to behold.

Only the blood-patterned assassin narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had noticed something.

"Got you."

Han Feng smiled slightly and returned to the city.

Soon, news of the death of the second Bloodstained Assassin reached the Deputy Hall Master.

The deputy hall master's expression darkened slightly, and he immediately contacted the third assassin who had left Crimson Feather City.

"How's the situation over there?"

"My lord, I've been discovered too."

"what?"

The deputy hall master's expression darkened further.

This opponent, capable of locking onto three opponents under these circumstances, is perhaps no longer a simple Dou Zun. Could it be...?

boom!

The third Bloodstained Assassin was engulfed in flames and quickly died. Han Feng's figure appeared blurry on the connecting bronze mirror.

The deputy hall master clenched his fist.

"who are you?"

His hoarse voice carried a hint of anger.

The other party's behavior has angered him.

Han Feng's body was enveloped by the power of the laws, making it impossible for the deputy hall master to see his full appearance.

However, this also confirmed to the deputy hall master that the opponent they encountered in the Southern Li Empire was a Dou Sheng powerhouse!

“You Soul Clan scum, if you have the guts, you can come in person next time.”

"I will personally send you on your way."

Han Feng's voice, mixed with the sound of flames burning, reached the ears of the deputy hall master.

"Good good!"

The deputy hall master was so angry that he laughed instead.

"You, wait for me!"

The bronze mirror shattered, and the deputy temple master proactively cut off all communication.

After venting his anger, the deputy hall master forced himself to calm down. He didn't even realize that a trace of fear had unconsciously mixed into his previous anger.

Xiao clan...

If we really have to take action, I definitely can't do it myself. What if that Dou Sheng is too powerful and kills me?

The Xiao clan has a long history; one can laugh at its extinction, but one should never underestimate its strength.

After calming down for a long time, the deputy hall master's rationality gradually prevailed.

Anyway, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade is not in that Xiao family, so it's best to discuss this matter carefully.

The loss of three Bloodstained Assassins is nothing to worry about.

Once the clan truly begins its actions, I will personally annihilate the mere Southern Li Empire!

After much deliberation, the deputy hall master decided to prioritize the clan's overall interests, and that any personal grudges could be settled later.

Although the Xiao family's weapon-refining techniques were exquisite, they were destined to be powerless to reverse the tide under the prevailing circumstances.

The Southern Empire.

After eliminating the three Soul Hall assassins, Han Feng chose to leave a spatial coordinate at this location.

He was genuinely looking forward to the arrival of the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall.

Although Han Feng is only at the early stage of a two-star Dou Sheng, he is confident that he can kill a three-star Dou Sheng.

Unless Hun Miesheng arrives in person, Han Feng can kill anyone who comes.

However, given the strength of the Xiao family in Nanli, it shouldn't be worthwhile for Hun Miesheng to personally take action.

Han Feng estimated that even the deputy hall master wouldn't come.

The image of a Xiao Clan Battle Saint that I deliberately created just now may have frightened the other party.

After lingering in the city for a while, Han Feng did not detect any further signs of the Soul Palace. He flew into the clouds and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Suzaku Castle.

Mu Qingluan spent another day out in the wild, and only when the lights outside gradually dimmed did she reluctantly return to the imperial city.

"Brother, you're back."

Mu Qingluan saw Han Feng sitting in the hall and ran towards him with a smile.

"Still laughing, you got back even later than me."

Han Feng flicked the other person's forehead.

"Ouch!"

Mu Qingluan hugged her forehead and pouted.

"I'm leaving tomorrow, so I want to see more of the place."

"Go wash up early and get a good night's sleep. We're going to the Beast Realm tomorrow. You should be familiar with that place, right?"

"Beast Realm!"

Mu Qingluan only then realized that she was going to the Beast Realm the next day.

"Good!"

"So, can I go back to my hometown for a visit?"

Over the years, she has been diligently cultivating at the Starfall Pavilion and has rarely returned to the Azure Phoenix Clan.

"can."

Han Feng smiled.

Mu Qingluan nodded in satisfaction, then asked:

"Senior brother, what are we going to the Beast Realm for?"
