Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 27
Chapter 27 Corpse Ghost
After knocking three or four people away from Daluo College, Ye Feng no longer dodged and threw a punch towards the sword light.
“Boom!”
The sword light completely disintegrated. Just now, the sword energy was still abundant. In an instant, it was shattered by the ruthless wind of the fist. The soles of his feet were filled with wind. Ye Feng’s body pressed against it, and another fist was imprinted on the longsword.
Qiang!
The black impermanence sword let out a contentious sound, as if crying. The sword came out of its hand and was actually sent flying by Ye Feng’s punch.
“Be split!”
How could he be spared? The combination of True Qi and True Qi created an unparalleled fist power. It pierced through the air and split open the resistance. A fist imprinted on Black Impermanence’s body was extremely fast.
The terrifying waves of energy lifted one layer after another. Everyone standing around couldn’t help but take a step back to avoid the impact of the waves of energy.
“Bang!”
Black Impermanence’s body was swept out and thrown into the air. The sword in his hand drew a semicircle in the air and landed in Black Impermanence’s hand.
His hair was disheveled, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. His sword pointed to the ground, and his eyes emitted scarlet blood light. He glared at Ye Feng angrily, wishing he could drink blood and eat his flesh.
“Brat, who are you? I have never heard of such a young genius appearing in Heavenly Spirit Academy.”
Black Impermanence’s tone was gloomy and cold. Ye Feng’s attack broke his sword technique and destroyed his glory. However, he did not know when such a monstrous genius had appeared in Heavenly Spirit Academy. He was only sixteen or seventeen years old. He was at the seventh level of the Houtian realm and could break through the ninth level of the Houtian realm.
“He is our inner competition champion, ‘Ye Feng’. How can you Earth Collapse Tile Dogs know about him?”
The Heavenly Spiritual Academy was boiling with excitement. They began to cheer. Ye Feng gave them a mouthful of anger. Otherwise, they would definitely be humiliated by Da Luo Academy.
“So that’s how it is, brat. I underestimated you. I was careless just now and was ambushed by you. I won’t have such good luck in the future.”
Black Impermanence emitted a cold killing intent. He thought that Ye Feng had just ambushed him. Otherwise, how could he break his sword technique? The longsword pointed at Ye Feng, and a few sword flowers appeared. The blinding sword energy cut through the air with creaking sounds.
“Stubborn!”
Facing the overwhelming Sword Qi, Ye Feng’s body moved, and with a pedal shot, he disappeared from the spot. A violent aura rushed out from above Ye Feng’s head, sending the Sword Qi flying. In front of absolute strength, any change was so fragile.
Eighteen sword shadows and Black Impermanence used the eighteen whirlwind swords completely, forming eighteen waves of Qi that sealed off Ye Feng’s body-sized Death Acupoints. This advanced martial skill was indeed different. The changes were more complicated, and the angle of attack was also more tricky.
“Bang, bang, bang …”
A series of crashing sounds came from the space. Facing the eighteen swords, Ye Feng’s fist turned into an illusion. A dozen shadows appeared on his body. Each shadow disappeared and a sword qi was shattered.
Eighteen punches were fired in a row. All of the sword lights disappeared. The air produced a violent friction sound. Ye Feng’s speed reached the level of friction with the air. Another punch was even bigger and more violent.
“Die!” The furious fist ruthlessly imprinted itself on Black Impermanence’s body. This time, Ye Feng did not show mercy. In the Divine Martial Continent, the weak preyed on the strong. If you did not defeat him, then it would be him who died. Ye Feng could not be merciful, nor did he dare to be merciful.
“Jump!”
Black Impermanence’s body was like a kite with a broken string. He threw it out fiercely and rolled a few times in the air. In the end, he heavily smashed into the ground. The bones in his entire body shattered and blood sprayed out from the corner of his mouth. It seemed that he was seriously injured.
“Cough cough!” After landing on the ground, Black Impermanence coughed intensely. Every time he coughed, he would cough out large mouthfuls of blood. His face was pale and his chest undulated.
Ye Feng originally wanted to kill him, but in front of so many people, Ye Feng did not do so. He avoided leaving behind a ruckus and avoiding a fight between the two academies. Ye Feng considered it more thoroughly and only injured him.
Everyone from Daluo College went to help Black Impermanence up. Some of them took out spirit medicines to help Black Impermanence recover from his injuries. After swallowing a few pills, their faces became much better. There was a sense of reverence in their eyes as they looked at Ye Feng, but they could not conceal the cold killing intent in the depths.
“Of the seven spots in our Heavenly Spiritual Academy this time, your Daluo Academy only has three. If you don’t agree, there won’t be a single spot.”
Ye Feng was extremely domineering. He directly obtained seven spots for the Heavenly Spirit Academy, only giving three spots to the Daluo Academy. He just managed to gather ten spots.
“You’re too much of a bully!” A disciple of Daluo College stood up and thought that Ye Feng had gone too far.
“What? Are you unconvinced?” His sharp eyes stabbed at this man, so frightened that he hurriedly took a step back, not daring to face Ye Feng’s gaze.
“Alright, we agree!” After swallowing the pill, Black Impermanence stopped his injuries and quickly recovered. He actually agreed to Ye Feng.
“Senior Brother …”
“There’s no need to say anything. This matter is just like that. This time, I’ll lead the two of you. You guys go back first.”
Black Impermanence prevented them from speaking. If the battle continued, it would not be beneficial to both sides. Even he was not Ye Feng’s opponent. Therefore, he knew very well that he would definitely suffer this time.
Everyone stopped talking. Since Black Impermanence had said so, they had no choice but to obey. Leaving behind the two strongest disciples, the rest had no choice but to leave the Chen Clan.
Everyone in the Chen Clan heaved a sigh of relief when the matter was finally settled satisfactorily. Especially just now, they were afraid of losing their lives. Fortunately, there were no major events.
“Young heroes, welcome to the Chen Clan. I’m sure you all know why you’re here. It’s getting late. Let’s set off as soon as possible. I wonder what everyone thinks.”
An old man in his fifties walked out from the back hall. Behind him was a man and a woman, both in their twenties. They were probably his children. They were heroic men and heroic women. They hadn’t expected the Chen Clan to have such a pair of children. Their cultivation levels weren’t weak. They were both around the ninth level of the Houtian realm. This situation made everyone very puzzled.
“Let me introduce them to everyone. These two are my sons and daughters. You may not know each other, but everyone in Veluriyam should know that they are all elite disciples of Veluriyam. You can get closer in the future.”
The old man was very proud. Originally, the Chen Clan was wholeheartedly engaged in business, but these past few years, they had been constantly oppressed. There were often martial artists who came to extort money or even threaten them. Helplessly, the Chen Clan embarked on the path of martial arts, allowing the two children to learn martial arts from an early age in order to defend their property. This was understandable.
“Chen Yiming greets everyone. This time, the two of us will lead everyone into the Qiyang Mountain Range to gather spiritual herbs. I hope everyone will help me along the way.”
The man called Chen Yiming and walked out. He clasped his fists at the crowd and spoke in a pleasant tone.
“Brother Chen is too angry. Taking people’s money and dissipating calamity with others is what we should do. Let’s go on our way as soon as possible.”
A disciple of Daluo College clasped his fist and said politely.
Ye Feng did not say anything. He was only here to earn spirit stones. Once the mission was over, he would leave. He would not even see Chen Yiming for the rest of his life. Seeing Chen Yiming, Ye Feng only smiled slightly.
After a stick of incense, the group of people started their journey. This time, the Chen Clan sent a total of 30 guards, 10 herb picking technicians, and Ye Feng and the others to form a team and march towards the Qiyang Mountain Range.
Medicine harvesting was also a technical activity. If one didn’t know how to harvest, then one wouldn’t know the year. Even if one harvested it, it would still be useless. Thus, the Chen Clan raised a large number of herb harvesters.
This time, the journey of picking herbs was about three days. Ye Feng and the others’ mission was very simple. It was to help them resolve the danger when they encountered it. If they did not encounter any danger, the Chen Clan would also pay them.
Walking in the dense forest, the ground was covered with withered leaves, dark and wet. There were also some strange insects flying around, and even poisonous insects. If they were bitten, their skin would itch.
“Senior Brother Ye, this is insect repellent water. Smear it on your body to prevent poisonous insects.”
A young man in his twenties actually addressed Ye Feng as Senior Brother. In the Divine Martial Continent, there was no age difference, only strength. It was normal to address Ye Feng as Senior Brother.
“Thank you!”
Ye Feng received the repellent water and thanked him. This time, he really did not expect that those strange insects would leave his body far after he wiped the repellent water.
“Senior Brother Ye, we need to be careful of those people from the Daluo Academy. I just felt that their bodies have always carried killing intent, and they might make a move in the dark.” The youth reminded.
“I already knew that if you dare to harm us, then I don’t mind killing them.” How could Ye Feng not know?
After walking for about four hours, an open space suddenly appeared in front of them. Countless strange flowers and grasses were in full bloom, emitting a faint fragrance.
“This is the Snow Plume Grass. It is a rare spirit medicine. Each of these herbs is worth more than a few spirit stones. If refined into pills, their value will increase by several hundred times.” The youth beside him explained to Ye Feng.
The Chen Clan began to order people to collect them. Only these herb-picking technicians could distinguish which ones were suitable for collection and which ones were not. If it was Ye Feng, he would definitely collect all of them.
However, the Chen Clan was different. They specifically chose high-grade harvesting and didn’t touch those that weren’t old enough. They could continue to harvest them the next time they came. This method was very scientific and avoided one-off lighting.
Ye Feng and the others dispersed and started patrolling. They divided into several groups and searched a few miles around. The Qiyang Mountain Range was even more dangerous than the Hengduan Mountain Range. Because there were ghouls here, this kind of monster was even more terrifying than demonic beasts.
The Chen Clan’s martial artists were responsible for binding and loading the carriages. Everyone had a detailed division of labor. It seemed that this was not the first time the Chen Clan had done this. Judging from their proficiency, they often entered the Qiyang Mountain Range to gather spirit medicines.
“Senior Brother Hei, where are we going?”
Black Impermanence led the two of them out of the crowd, turning a corner and approaching a hidden cave.
“I’ll see. I want them all to die here.”
Black Impermanence carried a cold murderous aura.
Two hours had passed, and the spiritual herbs here had almost been gathered. Just as everyone was about to leave, rustling sounds came from all around, and a cold aura completely enveloped the surroundings.
“Not good, we’re surrounded by ghouls.”
