“That fellow is finally finished.” Lin Feng lay on the ground, completely devoid of strength.
Murong Xue hadn’t recovered from her shock yet. After all, a martial student just killed a martial master before her eyes. This was too incredible.
Lin Feng grinned at her. “Didn’t I tell you before that we won’t die in the hands of this fellow?”
Murong Xue also smiled. She mustered her strength to stand up and walked over to Lin Feng’s side, helping him up.
“This place is inappropriate for us to stay for too long. Let’s go,” said Murong Xue.
…
The two of them hurriedly left.
After that, they found another place to conceal themselves. Murong Xue treated her injuries while Lin Feng contemplated about the marvelous aspects of the ancient forbidden technique he had just learned. This secret technique was known as the ‘Sky Covering Hand’, and like the meaning, it was capable of covering the skies with a single hand. It was truly terrifying.
After they exited seclusion, Lin Feng and Murong Xue didn’t run into anyone else from the Soul Devouring Hall. They guessed that Yuwen Yunfeng and the others might have already left. The two of them then headed straight for the cave of that Yin Yang Realm expert.
At the bottom of a certain mountain cliff, Lin Feng and Murong Xue finally found the Wuji Cave. Upon entering, they discovered that the cave was roughly about three to four hundred square meters.
Within the cave, three stone doors were closed shut. When they opened the doors, they didn’t find Daoist Wuji’s corpse.
“Something is wrong. Daoist Wuji’s corpse had disappeared, but there are no signs of other things being touched.” Lin Feng frowned.
All of a sudden, Lin Feng felt a cold aura enveloping his entire body.
He then glanced toward the depths of the Wuji Cave and discovered that there was another large tunnel there. It was unknown where the tunnel led to.
“Quickly retreat, there seemed to be some bizarre creature within.”
Because he cultivated the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art, his sensitivity toward his surroundings was extremely strong. He could faintly sense bloodthirsty, sinister intent emanating from within the tunnel. He and Murong Xue rapidly retreated, but soon after that, they saw something hard to forget in their entire lives.
A gigantic scorpion scuttled out from the tunnel.
This scorpion was actually over a hundred meters long and had an extremely huge stinger.
Its entire body was clad in armor, and it also had a pair of gigantic pincers.
It looked like as long as the pincers used a little strength, they could tear apart anything with ease.
“It’s a Darkness Devil Scorpion.”
Lin Feng felt his scalp going numb.
[Mountains and Rivers Classics] had records of this creature. Darkness Devil Scorpions were the largest species of scorpions in the world. They had the power that could easily destroy mountain peaks, and their nature was ferocious. If one encountered them, they must do their best to avoid this creature that would only bring harm and calamity to all living things.
When he saw this scorpion, Lin Feng understood that even someone at the Martial Master Realm wouldn’t be a match for this creature.
“Daoist Wuji’s corpse must have been eaten by this Darkness Devil Scorpion. This is why we couldn’t find his body.”
Lin Feng retreated as he called out a warning.
Seeing that the Darkness Devil Scorpion was about to lunge over, Lin Feng called out, “Let’s leave quickly. I think we have to give up on Daoist Wuji’s inheritance. It’s impossible for us to win against the Darkness Devil Scorpion.”
Yet, Murong Xue spoke confidently, “It is just a vile beast. I can kill it using my frost ice divine needles.
As the sound of her voice faded, Murong Xue took out her remaining two divine needles.
Swish swish~
The divine needles flew out at a quick speed, piercing towards the Darkness Devil Scorpion.
Lin Feng halted his steps, hoping that the divine needles could really penetrate the body of the Darkness Devil Scorpion.
Keng, keng…
