Chaotic Lighting Cultivation - Chapter 278
Chapter 278: Vicious Beating
At this moment, Old Devil Feng no longer had that arrogant disposition from before. He was much older now, his head was inundated with white hairs and face full of wrinkles. The key thing was that his temperament also had a great change. From an expert full of mettle, he transformed into a melancholic old man. It can be seen just how great of an impact of SongZhong’s escape previously at the Eastern Ocean had on him.
“Old man, you aren’t dead yet? Hahaha, did you know, when I was in the Eastern Ocean, I prayed to the heavens everyday for you to live a long life so that I could see you again!” SongZhong smirked. While the words were polite, SongZhong’s face was filled with rage as he said them. Obviously, what he meant was to pray for Old Devil Feng to live until the time he could personally deal with Old Devil Feng.
The most interesting thing was, Old Devil Feng had once said this to SongZhong before as well. Now, the roles were reversed. It is really like the saying, ‘What goes around comes around’.
After hearing what SongZhong said, Old Devil Feng fumed with rage as he scolded, “Darn fatty, don’t be too conceited. After entering my Thousands Desire Sect, you can only dream about escaping! Men, activate the Sect-Protecting Formation!”
Facing Old Devil Feng’s roar, SongZhong was not afraid at all. Instead, he replied with a smile, “Shout, shout with all your might. Even if you shout till your voice turns hoarse, no one will be bothered with you!”
As Old Devil Feng heard that, he was immediately startled. You have to know, because of SongZhong, the Thousands Desire Sect had already been in a state of high alert. The whole sect was in a state of apprehension and had made various preparations already. When SongZhong first began his massacre, the JinDan disciples in charge of the Sect-Protecting Formation should have already received the news and activated the Sect-Protecting Formation. But after so long, there wasn’t a single trace of the Sect-Protecting Formation being activated. Obviously, something went wrong for sure.
Thinking about that, Old Devil Feng broke out into perspiration as he quickly instructed, “Go and send a few men to see why the Sect-Protecting Formation has not been activated. Check what those disciples in charge are doing!”
“Yes!” A few JinDan disciples acknowledged the order and flew away.
After the disciples flew away, Old Devil Feng calmed himself down. He knew that the most important thing for him to do now would be to stall for time. Thus, he said to SongZhong, “Brat, don’t think that this little accident will be able to save you. Experts are as numerous as clouds in my Thousands Desire Sect. Even if we do not have the Sect-Protecting Formation, you will definitely not be able to escape!”
“Ah ah, who said I was intending to escape?” As SongZhong heard that, he burst out into laughter, “Before getting rid of you, why should I escape?”
“Hmph, with just you?” Old Devil Feng sneered, “I’m afraid you don’t have the power to kill this old man!”
“We’ll only know after trying!” SongZhong said coldly. Then, he let out a loud shout, “Old Devil Feng, die for my parents!”
SongZhong waved his hands and ten Positive Negative Five Elements Divine Lightnings appeared from out of nowhere. Under SongZhong’s control, they smashed towards Old Devil Feng. As for SongZhong himself, he followed behind the Divine Lightnings closely and pounced towards Old Devil Feng with a sinister grin.
If it was before, Old Devil Feng would only feel disdain towards SongZhong’s attack. But now, times had changed. While SongZhong’s strength increased greatly, Old Devil Feng’s strength had decreased greatly. Thus, Old Devil Feng was forced to use all he had to defend against SongZhong’s frightening attack.
The reason why this was the case was not only due to the fact that his vitality was greatly injured. The other reason was because Old Devil Feng’s magical artifacts were now much weaker than before. After all, it wasn’t an easy thing to refine an eighth-grade magical artifact. After Old Devil Feng was captured previously, he lost all his treasures and was only able to refine another eighth-grade magical artifact with the aid of Daoist Lecher.
However, the primary soul of his Wind Snake Flag had already died when Old Devil Feng used the ‘devil entering the body’ spell. Thus, his eighth-grade magical artifact was completely crippled. In such a short amount of time, it was obviously impossible for him to refine another eighth-grade magical artifact. Daoist Lecher’s wealth also had its limits. Thus, Old Devil Feng was only able to use a sixth-grade magical artifact, the small black flag he used to block SongZhong’s Divine Lightnings previously.
Old Devil Feng was naturally the most familiar with his own magical artifacts. While he was able to block SongZhong’s Positive Negative Five Elements Divine Lightnings previously, his magical artifact also suffered some damage from it. Obviously, it was impossible for him to use this magical artifact to block the ten-odd Positive Negative Five Elements Divine Lightnings which SongZhong had just unleashed, unless Old Devil Feng did not want this magical artifact of his any longer.
As such, he did not dare to go head on with the Divine Lightnings under such circumstances and could only choose to dodge. With the wind-type movement spells Old Devil Feng specialised in, it was just too simple for him to dodge these ten-odd Divine Lightnings. With a flash, he easily avoided them all.
However, the moment Old Devil Feng dodged the Divine Lightnings, those disciples to his left and right were the ones in trouble. The ten odd Divine Lightnings exploded together, forming a beautiful ball of prismatic flame which surrounded the area. However, the cultivators who were inside wouldn’t feel that it was something beautiful. Before they even had the time to react, they were incinerated into ashes.
Looking at the craters formed from the explosion and the pitiful plight of the hundred plus cultivators, all the disciples of the Thousands Desire Sect were terrified. They no longer dared to attack SongZhong and began to retreat instead, leaving Old Devil Feng alone.
As SongZhong saw that Old Devil Feng was left alone, how was it possible for him to show any mercy? While using his Divine Lightning, he began to pursue Old Devil Feng.
Old Devil Feng did not dare to block the Divine Lightnings at all and could only choose to escape. As such, it was a cat and mouse game played in the Thousands Desire Sect. SongZhong was the cat and Old Devil Feng was the mouse.
The famous YuanYing cultivator Old Devil Feng was actually forced to escape like a dead dog in his own sect! Despite the tens of thousands of Thousands Desire Sect disciples surrounding the area, not a single one of them was able to intervene. They could only watch and witness their senior being chased helplessly. Old Devil Feng himself was extremely depressed, almost to the point of puking blood.
Comparatively, SongZhong was extremely spirited. But very quickly, SongZhong also became frustrated. Old Devil Feng was just too cunning. With his wind-type movement spells, he was just like a slippery fish, difficult to catch. No matter how SongZhong tried to chase him, all of his efforts were useless. Even if he were to throw out a wave of Divine Lightnings, it would only go to waste. While there were many disciples from the Thousands Desire Sect who were injured by the Divine Lightnings, the target, Old Devil Feng, was completely uninjured.
As SongZhong saw that, he scolded, “Old Devil Feng, no matter what, you are someone who has been famous for a long time already. Do you only know how to escape? Can’t you have a good man-to-man fight with me?”
Old Devil Feng’s face turned red from embarrassment. While he was extremely angry, SongZhong’s words were not wrong. Thus, he did not reply and could be said to have silently acknowledged it.
As SongZhong saw that, he immediately sneered, “Old Devil Feng, if you are really afraid of this daoist here, then I shall only use a single hand. How about that? This daddy here will fight you with a single hand. Do you dare?”
Even a clay man has a temper; Old Devil Feng was indeed criticised to the point where he did not know where to hide his face any longer. Thus, he turned back and scolded, “Darn fatty, what are you so proud of? If it wasn’t for the fact that I was injured, do you really thing this old man would be afraid of you? Experts are as numerous as clouds in my Thousands Desire Sect. It is just a pity that our sect master isn’t here and the Wind and Clouds Witches can’t wait for me to die. Only then can you act so arrogantly. If my senior brother was here, you would have died more than a hundred times already!”
“Ha!” As SongZhong heard that, he replied with a cold laughter, “I see! Old Devil Feng, to think that you are a YuanYing stage senior! You only dare to hide behind the pants of someone else! You do not even have any ability yourself!”
Old Devil Feng’s face turned green from anger. In frustration, he wanted to charge out and fight SongZhong to the death. But at this very moment, an unexpected voice sounded from afar.
“Senior uncle, come and save me. That bastard SongZhong used the Nine Beauties Painting to infiltrate into the sect. He secretly controlled the disciples in charge of the Sect-Protecting Formation. This disciple was also caught by him!” An anxious voice sounded.
As Old Devil Feng saw that, he realised that the Naked Skinning Witch was being brought over by four JinDan cultivators. Her body was full of injuries, obviously having fought a great battle. Her face was pale with blood oozing out of her wound. The four JinDan cultivators used the sword light to coerce her here, obviously a captive.
Hearing what the Naked Skinning Witch said, Old Devil Feng came to a realisation and finally understood why the Sect-Protecting Formation was not activated. At the same time, he began to grow worried. SongZhong was now in the hinterlands of the Thousands Desire Sect and it was impossible for him to fight SongZhong off without the help of the Wind and Cloud Witches.
Right at this moment, SongZhong burst out into laughter, “Naked Skinning Witch, I have been waiting a long time for this day. Didn’t you want to betray me? Didn’t you think that Old Devil Feng was able to protect you? I will skin you alive today in front of this old fogey and make you a true Naked Skinning Witch!”
“Ah, NOOOOO!” The Naked Skinning Witch began to wail.
SongZhong could not be bothered at all as he commanded the four JinDan cultivators being controlled by the demonic witches, “Skin her!”
“Yes!” The four JinDan cultivators acknowledged and began to use their flying swords to slowly skin her alive.
With a flash of the four swords, the Naked Skinning Witch immediately lost four slices of thin flesh.
The Naked Skinning Witch began to shriek in pain as she cried out, “AHHH, senior uncle, save me!!! I will am willing to be your slave to repay your favour!”
As Old Devil Feng heard that, his eyes narrowed as he shouted, “SongZhong has gone too far, I will save you immediately!” As he said that, Old Devil Feng transformed into a gust of wind, approaching the four JinDan cultivators.
Actually, Old Devil Feng could not be bothered with the Naked Skinning Witch’s fate. But after he heard her say that she was willing to be a slave to repay his favour, he changed his mind immediately. First was because he indeed wanted to have a subordinate like her who had some potential. Second was because of his confidence. With his powerful wind-type movement spell, he would definitely be able to escape SongZhong, even if he brought another person along with him.
Chapter 279: Enraged Attack
One could not help but say that even if Old Devil Feng was powerless in battle without a good magical artifact, his escape techniques were still as intricate as ever. Even though SongZhong and the four JinDan practitioners had all made preparations in advance, they ultimately were unable to prevent his escape. Despite using his Positive Negative Five Elements Divine Lightnings and his flying swords, all he was able to hit was just Old Devil Feng’s shadow. Following a flash of light, the Naked Skinning Witch had already been picked up by Old Devil Feng, and the two of them had escaped their encirclement.
“Ah!” Seeing this situation, SongZhong and the four JinDan cultivators were stunned silly. They did not imagine that Old Devil Feng actually had such an insane escaping technique.
Seeing their stunned looks, Old Devil Feng had a huge ego boost, and his depression vanishing almost immediately. He laughed in delight, “Darned fatty, do you know how powerful this daddy is now? Hahaha~”
Just as Old Devil Feng was laughing madly, a surprising accident occurred. The Naked Skinning Witch, who was originally wedged at Old Devil Feng’s waist, crying with happiness at being saved, suddenly had a change in expression as she turned sinister. Without wasting a single moment, her hands pulled out an inky black dagger and viciously stabbed Old Devil Feng’s Dantian.
Due to the sudden change in the situation, Old Devil Feng did not realise that the person he rescued would suddenly turn on him. Thus he had completely lowered his guard around her, and was stabbed just as he was laughing out in joy.
While normal daggers are incapable of harming the fleshly body of a YuanYing cultivator due to a protective layer of Qi, the Naked Skinning Witch’s dagger was no ordinary artifact. A magical artifact of the fifth level, the Ice Heart Devouring Spirit Devil Dagger was most adept at tearing apart the protective layer of cultivators, with increased effectiveness towards harming the internals of a person.
Thus, it turned into a tragedy for Old Devil Feng. Under the control of the possessed Naked Skinning Witch, the dagger sliced through him as easily as cutting through tofu. Be it his protective layer or his physical body, there was seemingly no resistance as the dagger stabbed through him like a shish kebab.
The Dantian cavity is a place where the YuanYing of a cultivator is kept. Therefore, after the sneak attack by the Naked Skinning Witch, the YuanYing that Old Devil Feng had bitterly cultivated for hundreds of years was destroyed.
With his Dantian destroyed, Old Devil Feng was indeed in great pain. With a wave of his hand, he sent the Naked Skinning Witch flying with a slap, cursing, “Darned bitch, how dare you betray me!”
The Naked Skinning Witch did not have such a perverse defensive skill like SongZhong’s, and thus disintegrated without any means to resist.
However, just as her corpse was soaring through the sky, a dark shadow detached itself from the corpse and transformed into a gorgeous female cultivator.
With Old Devil Feng’s experience, he immediately recognized who the female was. He screamed in regret, “Demonic Desire Witch? Damn it, you guys are too despicable, actually using this slut to bait me!”
“Hahaha, you fool, don’t you know that the winners are glorified while losers are vilified? How could you say I’m despicable, it’s just you being stupid!” SongZhong exclaimed in delight. “So how is it? The feeling of being stabbed is great, isn’t it? The dagger was something you personally bestowed upon the Naked Skinning Witch, as a reward for betraying me. Ironically, you’re dying due to this same dagger. Such well deserved outcome, isn’t it?”
Old Devil Feng was already heavily injured; hearing SongZhong add insult to injury, his face turned green while his body trembled uncontrollably. Before he could speak, he vomited a mouthful of blood before speaking in a faltering tone, “Darned Fatty, you’re too sly. This old man has suffered an injustice!”
“So what? You still have to die!” SongZhong smirked. “You can tell King Yama all about the grievances you have suffered once you reach the Underworld!”
“Hmph!” Old Devil Feng coldly snorted, saying with much unwillingness, “If not for the fact that the Wind and Cloud Witches chose not to interfere, your plan wouldn’t have worked. Even in death, I will not rest in peace!”
Following which, he threw his head back and screamed, “AHH~ Wind and Cloud Witches, you two sluts, I won’t forgive you both, even in death!”
The moment he finished speaking, he ruthlessly slammed his palm towards his forehead, thus committing suicide by splitting his head. He knew that he would not live long, because after being stabbed, once the dagger’s devouring curse took effect, his YuanYing would be completely destroyed. As such, while he could retain his life, he would be no better than trash. In such an unforgiving place like the demonic sects, no one would pity a piece of trash, thus committing suicide would be better than being looked down upon and bullied.
Seeing the person who killed his parents committing suicide, SongZhong was elated, with the only regret of not being able to end him personally. However, this was a small matter. The point was that Old Devil Feng was still forced to suicide, so it did not affect him at all. With a sweep of his hand, he collected the corpse, with the intention of using it to pay respects to his parents.
After this, SongZhong’s gaze locked onto the thousand desire sect’s disciples standing a bit further off. He was not aware of who were Old Devil Feng’s subordinates, accomplices to his parents’ death. But what did it matter? So long as he killed them all, vengeance would still be carried out!
At this point, SongZhong’s eyes filled with killing intent as beads after beads of five elements divine lightning appeared in his hands, prepared to kill to his heart’s content.
Seeing his actions, the disciples all turned pale in fright, and began to scatter in all directions.
At this crucial timing, a sonorous voice suddenly sounded out, “SongZhong, did you really think that the Thousand Desires Sect has no one left to stop you?”
The voice had just sounded when two women dressed in red appeared out of nowhere. Both of them looked around the age of thirty, with similar appearances. They possessed voluptuous figures, milky white skin, and emitted an aura of noble disposition. With their bodies festooned with valuable pearls and jades, they portray the image of a wealthy noblewomen.
Simply from external appearances, the two women looked opulent and wealthy. But upon a closer look, one could see their brows were full of baleful energy. Furthermore, their skin shone with an unnatural luster, an obvious indication of them having cultivated to the point that they could alter their appearances.
SongZhong could, with difficulty, be considered as someone with experience. With just a look, he could tell that their strengths were definitely not below Old Devil Feng, possibly even be higher. They were both YuanYing experts, and even twins. Such possibility of occurring was infinitesimal. Thus, SongZhong immediately recognised them as the Wind and Cloud Witches.
Seeing the two of them, SongZhong was first surprised for a brief instant, but that soon turned into a cold smile as he jeered, “Haha, who’s this? Turns out to be the famed Wind and Cloud Witches! The two of you watched blatantly as Old Devil Feng was killed, but now show yourselves, could you two be trying to stop the inevitable?
“Hmph!” The Wind and Cloud Witches snorted in response, “Kid, don’t try to dissuade us here. The death of Old Devil Feng is only because he was stupid and did not plan in advance. This has nothing to do with us! The reason why we’ve chosen to show ourselves now, is naturally so we can eliminate you to show our sect’s prowess!”
Hearing them bluster, SongZhong could not help but let out a cold laugh, “Is the Thousand Desire Sect that powerful? How come I can’t see it? This young master came in single handedly, chopping Jindans and destroying yuanyings, killing countless number of disciples, but I’m still vigorous and lively! This shows that your Thousand Desires Sect, is actually just a paper tiger!”
“Hng!” The Wind and Cloud Witches sniggered in response, “Darned Fatty, don’t think that just because you used the Nine Beauties Painting to infiltrate our Sect and crack the defensive formation, you can rampage without fear! Us sisters are not like that silly guy Old Devil Feng. For a little junior like you, even if you possess the Nine Beauties Painting, you still got to die!”
As they spoke, both of them stretched out their hands, each summoning a scarlet red flying sword, before smirking at Songzhong. Obviously, they were still looking down on him.
Indeed, they had the qualifications to look down upon SongZhong. The fact that Songzhong managed to push Old Devil Feng to the state of being hunted like a stray dog, was because Old Devil Feng was already inflicted with injuries. Coupled with the fact that he was missing his magical artifact, thus his subpar performance. If he had attacked him while the latter was in his prime, even if Old Devil Feng could not defeat SongZhong, he at least possessed the measure to hold himself in a prolonged fight.
As for the Wind and Cloud Witches, their individual strengths already slightly exceeds Old Devil Feng at his peak. When one includes their innumerable magical artifacts, and the chemistry between the two of them, if they were to attack simultaneously, they could even face off three to five Old Devil Feng at his peak. To deal with SongZhong was simply beneath them.
However, despite being so arrogant and spewing nonsense constantly, Songzhong would never allow them to gang up on him. Fighting with two perverse experts, even he would not dare to attempt such a thing, it was an act tantamount to seeking death!
Thus, after the sisters brought out their bright scarlet swords, SongZhong did not rush forward, but instead smiled evilly as he brought out his Golden Dragon Boat.
The three thousand odd feet boat quietly floated above SongZhong’s head. More than ten of the dragon heads were facing the Wind and Cloud Witches, their purple eyes flickering with lightning. Witnessing so many of them staring straight at the sisters, a sense of powerlessness and pressure weighed down upon the twin sisters.
Taking this chance, SongZhong vanished from the plains in an instant, appearing at the top deck of the Golden Dragon Boat.
Seeing him standing on the frightening weapon of mass destruction, with a cold smile plastered to his face, the Wind and Cloud Witches could not help but turn pale, howling, “Darned SongZhong, you’re shameless!”
“Hehe, rather than me screaming that two on one would be shameless, I’d rather have you two screaming that I’m shameless! In any fact, you two are the shameless ones!” SongZhong delightedly said. “It doesn’t matter though, even if you guys want to be shameless, this young master here isn’t scared. I’ll still flatten you all the same, so watch out!”
