Chapter 305: Chapter 118: Triumphant Return, Underlying Currents

...

...

"Die!"

The flying sword had already been reactivated.

But at this moment, the acting Sect Leader of Lingyi Sect suddenly heard a shout from the ground.

"Feng Xiongyi!"

That was Li Xuan’s shout.

Feng Xiongyi snorted coldly, with a look of a victor, his gaze slightly lowered, looking down.

With that glance, his heart suddenly skipped a beat...

And then pounded like a drum.

What kind of eyes were those?!

Everything on the ground blurred, became vague, flowers and stones were shrouded in a mist like ink diluted in water, and even the person seemed to blur along with it.

In this chaos, nothing was clear, only those eyes, those eyes that seemed to merge with the earth, glaring at him menacingly.

No.

They weren’t looking at him.

Instead, those eyes became a gateway, filled with raging murderous intent within.

This killing intent made Feng Xiongyi feel as if he was plunging into hell, his limbs ice cold.

His thoughts were cut off, and all his actions stopped.

Bang!!

Li Xuan stepped onto the ground and shot up rapidly.

In Feng Xiongyi’s eyes, time seemed to slow down, his body felt encased in layers of thick ice, wanting to move required breaking through this ice, it was a feeling of being trapped in a midnight nightmare, unable to awaken.

In his pupils, Li Xuan had already leaped to the highest point.

Very high, but still not enough.

Without a flying sword, a person cannot ascend.

But suddenly, the fabric on Li Xuan’s back bulged extravagantly, and with a "rip," a pair of flesh wings grew out.

Feng Xiongyi’s pupils contracted sharply, showing an utmost incredulous expression.

He roared in his heart: ’What is that!!?’

Yet Li Xuan’s flesh wings flapped once, stirring a whirlwind as he arrived in front of his opponent, his left hand snatching the soybean from Feng Xiongyi’s hands, while his right hand swung a palm slash.

His sequence wouldn’t be wrong.

In close combat, the primary target is not to kill but to sever the opponent’s fallback, otherwise... perishing together would be meaningless?

During the slash, Feng Xiongyi only saw the hand becoming finer, finer... until it turned into a longsword of blood and flesh.

His throat bobbed, the fear of death crashed onto his spirit.

’It’s a demon!’

’A Great Demon!!’

’How can it be?!!’

The terror between life and death finally gave a slight break to the nightmarish restraint.

Feng Xiongyi’s swift reaction made him retract a mere zero point zero zero zero one meter...

Swoosh!

Li Xuan’s fleshy sword slashed through.

A head flew up.

Feng Xiongyi, dead!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

The flesh wings retracted, the spirit also withdrew.

Despite his strength, even a cultivator like Feng Xiongyi could not withstand Li Xuan’s spiritual assault; had Li Xuan not wanted to test his opponent’s prowess, he would have been "controlled" at first encounter.

At this moment, Li Xuan and the corpse landed simultaneously.

He changed his form, altered his demonic blood, carried Feng Xiongyi’s body to a concealed place, and then performed the Demon Technique [Ghost Creation].

A ghostly white mist enveloped Feng Xiongyi’s body...

Li Xuan sat in silence, the Spirit Veins here were icy, waves of chill emerged from the ground, this chill seemed to restrain the power of his flesh, making him feel it was worse than being in a busy marketplace.

...

After a long time.

The evil spirit Feng Xiongyi slowly stood up.

Li Xuan felt a moment of joy, but then something felt wrong.

A quick check revealed that this evil spirit Feng Xiongyi only inherited the power of his flesh.

But all abilities related to energy, controlling the flying sword, were completely gone... this meant the opponent’s power was only around the level of a demonic form.

The power of the evil spirit seemed inherently unable to extend into the "energy domain."

"Master."

The once reserved acting Sect Leader knelt before Li Xuan.

He had sent away his woman, and now he too became Li Xuan’s servant.

Li Xuan stared at him, saying, "Say something."

```

The malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi pondered for a moment and said, "Master must want to know the plans of the previous self."

Immediately, he began to narrate.

"The day to take action is tomorrow.

According to the plan, Ji Nanfeng’s brother, who is also the eldest son of the Alliance Leader of the Six Alliances of Lishan, Ji Changfeng, will secretly come here."

Ji Nanfeng, namely the plump woman who stays at Lingyi Sect.

"Ji Nanfeng said her brother has already entered the High Tier Soldier Lord Realm and has spare High Tier Thought Stones.

Once the mission is accomplished, they will give my previous self one to help him breakthrough.

And to keep things stable, my previous self has enjoyed all kinds of delights with Ji Nanfeng, and they have become Dao companions."

Li Xuan: ???

He was somewhat stunned.

Previously, he said Ji Nanfeng and Feng Xiongyi had a special relationship, but it was just nonsense used to provoke Feng Xiongyi.

Yet he never expected it to be true.

He never thought Feng Xiongyi could be so twisted, pushing the delicate beauty Feng Mengrou towards him while enjoying delights with that "beauty" himself, this is simply...

Li Xuan didn’t know how to comment on Feng Xiongyi.

Could this be what it means to achieve great things without worrying about small matters?

And what tier is a High Tier Soldier Lord?

Elders of Feiguang Peak have an attack range of about "300 Main Attributes," the acting Sect Leader of Lingyi Sect has "400 Main Attributes," so... could a High Tier Soldier Lord have reached "500 Main Attributes"?

The flying sword seems naturally to suppress fleshly power, as if forming two completely different camps.

Li Xuan pondered a moment and asked again, "What about the specifics of the plan?"

The malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi said, "Ji Changfeng is skilled at making puppets; he has already transformed Feng Yinzi from Iron Wall Peak, who had previously gone out to sea, and all thirteen Soldiers under him into puppets."

Li Xuan frowned and said, "Transform into puppets, so what’s different from when they were alive?"

The malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi shook his head and said, "It’s said there’s no difference."

Li Xuan’s eyes slowly narrowed.

No difference?

How is this done?

Li Xuan said, "And after that?"

The malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi said, "When Ji Changfeng arrives, there will be chaos on Feiguang Peak, and a great fire will ignite. Then it will draw nearby White Cloud Peak and Purple Mist Peak to come to the rescue.

We will seize the opportunity to first turn White Cloud Peak Master Shuichengzi and Purple Mist Peak Master Hua Xiaoying into puppets and then gradually turn those Soldiers into puppets."

Li Xuan frowned and asked, "Do you know how this Puppetry Skill is done?"

This ability is too perverse; he had never heard of it.

The malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi shook his head, not knowing, and then said, "Once many Soldiers have turned into puppets, we will continue to maintain chaos, and then I will go with the puppet Peak Masters to Weapon Refining Pavilion to find that old ghost.

The Six Alliances of Lishan will then launch an attack from outside.

When transporting the diseased gold, they have already thoroughly understood the terrain here.

In the fierce confrontation, that old ghost will definitely speed up the forging of the flying sword.

And once that weapon is completed, we will kill him, seize the flying sword, and thus... the matter will be concluded."

The air was silent for a moment...

Just as Li Xuan was about to ask for some details, the malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi suddenly said, "I remember Ji Nanfeng said that once the affair with Lingyi Sect is over, she plans to fully annex Great Yin.

It’s said she has unified the mysterious nation Fire Moon Dynasty north of Great Yong, and many parts of the Great Yong Dynasty are under her control."

"Also, Ji Nanfeng said her brother has set a large trap and said that in the past six months, he has already gone to Great Yin and turned many people into puppets."

Upon hearing this, Li Xuan’s pupils contracted, and a fury surged up, yet he had left many "eyes" in the Divine Martial Monarch’s mansion, and those eyes containing the "Spirit Seed" could let him see the happenings of the mansion.

However, until now, he had not seen anything unusual.

But thinking that his wife and daughter could be attacked by puppets at any moment, he was filled with unbearable rage.

Taking several deep breaths, he temporarily suppressed his inner urgency.

Ji Changfeng is coming tomorrow.

Since they’re coming, they shouldn’t leave.

...

Immediately, Li Xuan began quickly cleaning up the scene.

The malevolent ghost Feng Xiongyi quickly disfigured himself and then "dug his grave" and lay inside.

Li Xuan took out nine flying swords, intending to replace his weapon.

A faint array pattern floated on the master sword, but Li Xuan couldn’t start that array pattern, couldn’t merge the nine swords.

He tried using "Spirit Root" on the master sword.

Directly succeeded!

Feng Xiongyi died, so the Spirit Root was gone, and he took advantage of the gap and occupied an empty room; it was quick.

Immediately, he repeated the method and controlled Feng Xiongyi’s yet unused "Soybean Spirit Treasure."

Such a Spirit Treasure is not as good as a flying sword, doesn’t need activation, and can be used once controlled.

However, on the other side, even though the master sword was under his control, it wasn’t activated.

He held it like a weapon, but he couldn’t launch this missile; he could only use it as a stick.

Thus, Li Xuan wrapped up the other eight flying swords and then made his clothes look tattered, adding some wounds to his body to show... the fierceness of the battle.

After finishing these, he stepped down the mountain.
