Chapter 43: Fight for survival

"Master, you came out." Su Mei was surprised when the woman emerged from the necklace. She gently touched the necklace on her neck. This was not an ordinary ornament, but a high-grade artifact that can accommodate a living being. This artifact has a soul-healing effect, which is why it can also preserve a remnant soul.

"Don’t worry, there are no strong people present in the surrounding area who could sense my existence. Although I can’t fight due to weak soul power, it is not a problem to come out and observe for a while." The woman spoke lightly as she casually looked around.

This woman in soul form was the remnant soul of an Immortal cultivator who somehow arrived in this mortal world. She didn’t tell Su Mei the whole story for now, there are many gaps in her story, but Su Mei decided to leave it as long as she helped her to get stronger, she didn’t mind.

"Hmm, this world is really barren, I don’t know if I can recreate my body in this world. At least, with the help of this girl, I might get a chance to ascend to a higher realm. This time I have truly found an extraordinary disciple." She glanced at Su Mei and said inwardly. The Sacred Physiques are rare even in the immortal world, she didn’t expect she would find it in this mortal world.

While Su Mei and her master were lost in their thoughts, the clash between the Feng Clan and the city lord’s clan was getting intense.

"So who is Feng Yun?" The mysterious woman in soul form asked curiously.

"He is here, maybe he is hiding somewhere like a coward." Su Mei snorted coldly. From her angle, she couldn’t see Feng Yun, so she assumed that Feng Yun was hiding inside.

While on the other side, Feng Yun was watching the fight. "So this is the strength of Soul Refining Realm cultivators, it is not that strong." Feng Yun muttered as he observed the fight. Initially, he was very concerned about the strength of Soul Refining Realm cultivators, but after seeing their strength, he felt he overestimated them.

Although City Lord’s faction has two Soul Refining Realm cultivators, they were at the Second layer of the Soul Refining realm and 1st layer of the Soul Refining Realm cultivator. The resources in this area were very scarce, it was already a miracle to reach the Soul Refining Realm. City Lord was someone who was fond of power, didn’t want to take risks nor wanted to leave Maple Leaf City to search for better resources.

"Ye Qincheng, don’t you have any fear of the royal clan?" Feng Bai resisted the city lord’s attacks and shouted. "Where is the evidence? You are clearly framing my clan." Feng Bai was shouted loudly.

"Hmph, I have enough evidence to prove your involvement in my son’s death. My son himself revealed your crime before taking his last breath." City Lord snorted. After seeing the old man Feng who somehow reached the Soul Refining Realm, he was confused and perplexed. Before his son took his last breath, he revealed that it was done by Feng Clan. That is why he was sure that the killers were them.

Other than the Feng Clan, nobody has a strong beef with his clan. He assumed that the Feng Clan must have found out that the drugging incident was related to him and killed his son to take revenge.

’Looks, the information was correct, this clan is hiding something extraordinary. Not only did the old man reach the Soul Refining Realm, but the other members of the clan were also stronger than before. This man has reached the peak of the core formation realm and might reach Soul Refining Realm soon. This can’t be confident, they must have obtained a special treasure.’ Ye thought inwardly after seeing the strength of Feng Clan’s elders.

A few days ago, he received a letter from an unknown person, according to the information in the letter, the Feng Clan had obtained a secret treasure in the mountains which can increase the cultivation speed. Naturally, he didn’t believe it, thinking someone wanted to frame the Feng Clan. He wouldn’t wage war on Feng Clan because of some baseless information. However, after witnessing the upgraded strength of the Feng Clan, he realized it might be true.

Knowing the Feng Clan hiding a big secret, he felt determined, he had to obtain this treasure and kill them unless they become a threat to him.

Suddenly, an explosive aura burst out from Ye Qincheng’s body, the pressure was intense causing a change of expression to appear on Feng Bai’s face.

’This is bad, I can’t hold him.’ Feng Bai thought inwardly, feeling grave danger from Ye.

"Mountain Slashing Sword." Ye Qincheng roared as he attacked Feng Bai.

"Not good." Feng Bai exclaimed as he hurriedly took out a shield to block Ye Qingcheng’s attack.

Boom

A loud explosion sounded, Feng Bai was thrown back on the ground. A blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, it was a heavy blow but thanks to the shield, he was managed to block this attack.

Feng Bai looked at Ye Qincheng who was slowly walking towards him, he clenched his teeth, his expression became determined. He was ready to burn his vital energy to improve his strength for a short time, although it will his life force, he was ready to sacrifice his to protect his clan.

"Listen up all, give it all. We have to protect our future generation." Feng Bai shouted loudly.

"Sigh!" Feng Qingshan, the Soul Refining Realm old man sighed. He just achieved his lifelong dream, didn’t even get a chance to celebrate. ’Well, it is for shake future generation.’ Feng Qingshan’s eyes became firm.

"Feng Xiang, I will cover you, you have to escape with youngsters." Feng Qingshan send a voice transmission to the fourth elder. He and Feng Bai can’t leave as they had to held back the enemies, the protection of young generation fell on the fourth elder.

...

Seeing the condition becoming perilous, Feng Yun knew that he had to do something.

"Let’s try the new technique." Feng Yun muttered softly as he thought of something. A bow appeared in his hand, the bow was made of metal with many runes engraved on it, giving it a mysterious vibe.

[Name - Demon Slayer Bow]

[Rank - 6th]

[Description - This bow is made of Rare Black Iron, extremely sturdy. Engraved with ancient runes, it doesn’t require a physical arrow and can fire an arrow using the user’s spiritual energy. The attack power depends on the user.]

He obtained this Bow from the sign-in system. It was a rare 6th Rank weapon, commonly used by Martial Kings and upper-rank cultivators. Although Feng Yun couldn’t use a hundred percent of its power, it was enough to kill these soul-refining realm cultivators.

Feng Yun gripped the bow and held the string, as he transferred his spiritual qi, the bow string glowed lightly. When he pulled the string, a spiritual arrow materialized on it.

"Not enough!" Feng Yun thought as he pulled the string further, even with his strength, he found it hard to pull the string completely.

"What is young master doing?" Wang Ruo who was standing behind Feng Yun looked at the bow in his hand and muttered inwardly. She was feeling very apprehensive today, her body was visibly shaking due to the fear of death.

She lived in the village, and hardly encountered any battle of cultivators. After seeing the war of cultivators who can kill her in a second, she felt terrified.
