Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 105: Chapter 104: Entering the Ancient Battlefield

Zhuo Feifan certainly did not trust his fellow disciples to go and kill Qin Feng. If they were not efficient and gave Qin Feng a chance to speak up, revealing his past misdeeds, it would be an immense trouble for him.

However, to the ears of his fellow disciples, his words were quite reassuring.

“Good, we indeed did not misjudge. Junior Brother Zhuo truly is a man of integrity and loyalty.”

Surrounded by his fellow disciples, Zhuo Feifan took off his magic robe, laid it over the body of the girl on the ground, picked her up, placed her in his storage bag, and then led the group in pursuit of Qin Feng and Ma Jiu.

Ahead, Qin Feng and Ma Jiu were each riding a spiritual bird in desperate escape.

But the spiritual birds they rode were, after all, not as strong and could fly long distances but could not match the speed of the sword cultivators following them.

...

As such, it did not take long for several cultivators from Taiyi Mountain to close in to within a few hundred yards.

Ma Jiu looked back, his face filled with helplessness: “Junior Brother, why in the world did you provoke these guys for nothing? Sure, our Beast Taming Sect and Taiyi Mountain Golden Light Cave are sworn enemies, but you have to consider the strength of your opponent too!”

Qin Feng gave a wry smile: “I certainly know my own limits; why would I provoke a Foundation Establishment cultivator deliberately? I was hiding well, but then your communication spirit bird suddenly came looking for me and that’s how he discovered me.”

Hearing this, Ma Jiu was speechless; it turned out he was part of the reason.

But now was not the time to assign blame. Seeing the sword cultivators behind them getting closer, he quickly said, “Junior Brother Qin, let’s split up and run. Whether or not we can survive will depend on our luck.”

“Alright.”

Qin Feng didn’t say more, just nodded in agreement.

Even if he stayed with Ma Jiu, it would be of no use since Ma Jiu, despite being able to merge with spiritual beasts, had not yet reached Foundation Establishment and couldn’t defeat those sword cultivators.

Rather than drag Ma Jiu down with him, it was better to escape separately. Zhuo Feifan would certainly focus his attention on him, and most of the sword cultivators by his side would also remain with him. With Ma Jiu’s strength and his cunning nature, he had a good chance of escaping.

As for himself?

Qin Feng clenched his teeth and, with a determined heart, directed the vulture toward Chaotic Sky Valley.

There lay the entrance to the Ancient Battlefield.

The Ancient Battlefield was fraught with danger, and usually, he would not consider entering.

But now that he couldn’t escape, he decided to put himself at death’s door to seek life afterward, trying to use the dangers of the Ancient Battlefield to evade the pursuers behind him.

He looked back and indeed, Zhuo Feifan and the four sword cultivators with him were in pursuit of him, with only two going after Ma Jiu.

Zhuo Feifan and his people clearly saw what he was planning, their faces showing cold smiles.

Their sword-controlling flight was extremely fast, far surpassing Qin Feng’s spiritual vulture, confident they could intercept him before he entered Chaotic Sky Valley.

Qin Feng’s heart was pounding with urgency; if truly caught up by the enemy, he would have no chance of survival.

But no matter how much he urged, the spiritual vulture couldn’t fly any faster.

Just when he was on pins and needles, a flash of spirit light suddenly appeared in his mind, reminding him of that bottle of Blood Demon Pills.

Although the side effects were very severe, in critical moments, the pills could still serve as a lifesaving remedy.

Since the Bandit Cultivator could consume it, presumably Spiritual Beasts could do the same.

He flipped his hand, took out a Blood Demon Pill, poured one out, and directly stuffed it into the beak of the Spiritual Vulture, making it swallow.

Soon, a layer of blood glow emerged on the body of the Spiritual Vulture that had eaten the Blood Demon Pill. Its aura surged wildly, and with a flap of its wings, the sound of wind whooshed, its speed significantly faster than before.

Although he had not yet managed to shake off the Sword Cultivators behind him, he was able to maintain a considerable distance, making it difficult for them to approach.

“Dammit, what’s going on here?” @@novelbin@@

Zhuo Feifan’s face was ashen as he watched the Spiritual Vulture in front suddenly pick up speed, and he was extremely irritated inside.

“Junior Brother, there’s no need to worry. That kid must have used some secret technique to stimulate potential, which is why that Spiritual Bird’s speed has increased so drastically. But it won’t last long. In no time, his Spiritual Bird won’t even have the energy to fly.”

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator, who looked to be in his thirties, spoke up.

“Uh-huh.”

Zhuo Feifan nodded. He didn’t say anything more, but he was somewhat anxious inside, fearing that before the Spiritual Bird ran out of energy, that little Beast Taming Sect guy who was spying on him would have already escaped into Chaotic Sky Valley.

Sure enough, just as expected, the moment when the entrance to Chaotic Sky Valley appeared in front, Qin Feng did not hesitate in the slightest and directly drove the Spiritual Vulture into it.

Behind, the Taiyi Mountain Sword Cultivators hesitated. Their figures paused for a moment as they looked towards Zhuo Feifan and asked, “Junior Brother, do we still pursue?”

“Of course we chase!”

Zhuo Feifan asserted decisively, “This person killed my Junior Sister; this vengeance is irreconcilable. If I don’t kill him to avenge my Junior Sister, my heart will not be at peace.

Besides, I also can’t explain it to Martial Uncle Jiang when I go back.”

Having said this, he took the lead in pursuing into Chaotic Sky Valley.

The other cultivators exchanged glances, and without hesitation, they all followed suit.

Their trip was originally intended to enter the Ancient Battlefield and help Zhuo Feifan obtain the Ancient Spirit Sword. Although they were not quite fully prepared, given the situation, there was nothing left to hesitate about.

Qin Feng was flying the Spiritual Vulture at a low altitude.

He didn’t dare to fly too high. Chaotic Sky Valley had many Space Rifts—the higher the place, the more numerous they were. Hence, many cultivators usually walked on the ground when they entered.

However, Qin Feng was currently fleeing for his life, so he couldn’t worry about that. He had to keep his eyes wide open, intently watching the void in front of him. Whenever he spotted a Space Rift, he would manipulate the Spiritual Vulture to dodge it in time.

Though the Spiritual Vulture became somewhat irritable after swallowing the Blood Demon Pill, it was a Spiritual Beast tamed by the Demon Refining Pot and couldn’t go against Qin Feng’s will. This was why it could avoid those pitch-black Space Rifts at critical moments and fly deeper into the valley.

But after entering the Ancient Battlefield through Chaotic Sky Valley, the Space Rifts here were actually fewer.

To be accurate, it’s not that there were fewer here, but the Space Rifts in the Ancient Battlefield were mostly concentrated in certain regions. There were many places where the space was extremely unstable, and any external disturbance might cause a massive outbreak of Space Rifts—or even a spatial collapse, sucking in everything nearby.

And in places without Space Rifts, other dangers lurked, such as Prohibitions, miasma, Array Formations, the will of Ancient Great Ones’ Divine Thoughts, or some unspeakable strangeness. Any of these could easily kill ordinary cultivators.

During the Ancient Great Tribulation, the Human Clan used this place as one of the battlegrounds against formidable foes from the Outer Realms. They laid down countless Array Formation Restrictions, serving as means of defense and offense.

Even though this place had become a wasteland after that devastating war, it still harbored many dangers and lethal prohibitions. Cultivators with lower cultivation could enter relatively safely, their low Realms not necessarily triggering certain hazards.

But those with powerful Dao Cultivation might activate the Residual Souls of some ancient powerhouses, setting off a series of crises. This was also the reason why cultivators with profound Dao Cultivation no longer ventured here.

Even with knowledge of fortunes to be found, they dared not barge in carelessly, fearing they might stay forever, accompanying Ancient Remnant Souls in death.
