Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 106: Chapter 105: No-Fly Array

Qin Feng rode on the back of the Spiritual Vulture, dashing through the air like lightning, heedless of the dangers here, quickly passing through Chaotic Sky Valley and flying towards the depths of the Ancient Battlefield.

Along the way, he encountered some Cultivators who had come here to search for treasures, most of whom were Loose Cultivators with no Sect affiliation.

Those Cultivators looked at Qin Feng’s figure in astonishment, somewhat dazed, wondering how there were still people who were so reckless these days. Could he truly dare to fly at such speeds in the Ancient Battlefield, without fearing being directly devoured by a Void Crack?

Before those Cultivators could finish their musings, they heard the sounds of whooshing Sword Qi tearing through the void behind them. Then, they saw several Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivators also speeding by at an extremely fast pace, chasing after the young man on the large bird.

“Big brother,”

Below, a young Cultivator looked towards an older brother several years his senior and said, “These Cultivators flying so recklessly won’t live long. Why don’t we follow and see? Maybe we can pick up some treasures left behind.”

...

The other person was clearly tempted but quickly shook his head, “Judging by the Magic Robe design on those behind us, they are most likely Sword Cultivators from Taiyi Mountain. It’s not wise to take advantage of a Major Sect; taking their things could bring disaster upon us.

Besides, even if we did follow, it would be useless. We wouldn’t dare to fly as fast as they do. Who knows where these guys will end up. Following behind would just result in us losing them anyway, so there’s no point in chasing.”

Hearing this, the young Cultivator felt a bit regretful, yet he didn’t insist. In a place where dangers could arise at any time, it was better to play it safe.

Qin Feng delved deeper into the Ancient Battlefield. At first, he still encountered some Cultivators, but later on, there were basically no more signs of anyone.

The Ancient Battlefield was simply too vast, and the vast majority of Cultivators dared not delve too deeply into it. It was rare to see other Cultivators here, and even if they did meet, they would stay wary of each other, keeping their distance to avoid being robbed or killed by the other.

After all, near Liang City, there were quite a few Bandit Cultivators engaging in such risk-free profiteering.

Though the Ancient Battlefield was desolate, it was not devoid of life. In addition to plants, there were Poison Insects and Exotic Beasts lurking about—few in number, but each one a dangerous entity.

Bang…

Over a piece of dilapidated ancient architecture, the Spiritual Vulture, previously flying in haste, suddenly trembled and plummeted to the ground.

Qin Feng was startled and leaped off, releasing the Swallowing Sky Toad to remain on guard.

The effects of the Blood Demon Pill hadn’t yet worn off, and the Spiritual Vulture’s vitality was still surging, so it wasn’t out of strength yet for flying. But before, they had sensed a vast Imprisonment force pulling them down from the sky. @@novelbin@@

Qin Feng looked around and, upon seeing no formidable presence as he had imagined, immediately realized that there must be a No-Fly Array here, not any other danger.

Realizing this, Qin Feng felt a surge of joy.

Because this meant that those Sword Cultivators following behind would also lose their ability to control their swords for flight.

On the ground, they certainly couldn’t be much faster than him. The ancient structures, although in ruins, spread out for more than a dozen miles, so he might be able to use the terrain to elude the pursuit of Zhuo Feifan and others.

“Haha, that kid’s Spiritual Bird has run out of strength. Brothers, hurry up and catch him—kill him!” Zhuo Feifan saw Qin Feng’s mount suddenly fall to the ground and was overjoyed. His True Yuan surged wildly within his body, and his Sword Controlling speed increased by a third.

The others also perked up and quickly followed suit.

This was the Ancient Battlefield, after all. They were worried about unforeseen dangers should things drag out too long. Obviously, it was best to take care of this young Beast Taming Sect fellow as soon as possible.

Inside the ancient buildings, Qin Feng glanced back at them, his thoughts racing, and released three Spiritual Beasts: the Green Fox, the Spiritual Snake, and the Ghost-Faced Spider.

He had the Green Fox create an Illusion Array to conceal their forms and then, without hesitation, he turned and walked away.

Soon, Zhuo Feifan and the others caught up. Their Sword Controlling flight was extremely fast, and they headed straight for Qin Feng’s figure.

Then, as quickly as they flew, that’s how fast they fell.

With a series of thuds, they all became tumbling gourds under the No-Fly Array.

Unlike Qin Feng, who had the Spiritual Vulture cushion his fall and didn’t get injured at all, these few relied on their own Sword Controlling flight. Even though they weren’t flying very high, the sudden fall from twenty to thirty feet in the air still caused them not a little harm.

Before they could recover, they saw a mass of spider silk descending from above.

At the same time, a Green Fox and a Spiritual Snake launched themselves at them, biting towards them.

The Green Fox wasn’t too much of an issue, as its main ability lay in Illusion Techniques, and it didn’t have a strong biting force, so it didn’t inflict severe injuries on the Cultivators.

But the Spiritual Snake possessed intense venom, and even Foundation Establishment Cultivators had to immediately expel the poison if bitten.

“Ah…”

One of the Cultivators failed to dodge in time and was bitten on the wrist by the Spiritual Snake. As the poison liquid crazily injected into him, his arm swelled visibly to the naked eye, and black qi rapidly spread upwards.

The afflicted Cultivator cried out in pain, hastily gathering True Yuan within his body in an attempt to shake off the biting snake, while with his other hand, he performed a sword technique, summoning his fallen Flying Sword off the ground with a whoosh, slicing directly towards the body of the Spiritual Snake.

“Courting death!”

Zhuo Feifan and his companions were somewhat flustered in dodging the Green Fox’s bites and the spider silk overhead, each of them maneuvering their Flying Swords, trying to slay the Spiritual Beasts.

From a distance, Qin Feng quickly directed the Spiritual Beasts to flee.

Of course, he knew well that these Spiritual Beasts were no match for Zhuo Feifan and the others. He had released them for a sneak attack, hoping to gain the upper hand. If the ambush succeeded, all the better; even if it didn’t, it could buy him precious time to escape.

The Green Fox, agile and clever, quickly darted in the opposite direction, ironically evading the slashes of several Flying Swords.

The Ghost-Faced Spider, being a bit further away from the group, received Qin Feng’s command and immediately scurried away behind some damaged walls and ruins, stealthily escaping into the distance.

Only the Spiritual Snake failed to escape.

Although it fled swiftly, it couldn’t outpace the Sword Cultivators’ Flying Swords. Moreover, it had delayed its escape by a fraction of time to inject its poison into a Cultivator, failing to hit and run as the Green Fox and Ghost-Faced Spider did, and was thus entangled by the Cultivator in front of it.

Then several Sword Cultivators acted in unison, slicing it into seven or eight pieces; Sword Qi invaded its body, snuffing out all of the Spiritual Snake’s life force in the blink of an eye.

Qin Feng didn’t even have time to lament the death of the Spiritual Snake. He directed the Green Fox and the Ghost-Faced Spider to take a detour and meet up with him while he pushed the Divine Movement Technique to its limit and dashed frantically into the distance.

This Ancient building backed onto a mountain and must have once been a sect’s Mountain Gate, with many Prohibitions left in place to guard it. Otherwise, the damaged palaces and houses, despite the long passage of Time, would have been plundered clean by countless Cultivators seeking treasures in the Ancient Battlefield.

Behind him, the Cultivator bitten by the Spiritual Snake had his face enveloped in black qi.

It wasn’t out of anger, but due to the snake venom spreading in his body.

He fished out a bottle of Detoxification Elixir Pills from his Storage Bag, swallowing three in succession, only just managing to suppress the poison. Still, he felt numbness in half his body, and the arm that had been bitten almost lost all sensation.

Unless he had access to Spiritual Medicine specifically for this snake venom, he felt he wouldn’t return to normal for three or five months.

“Senior Brother Hao, are you okay?”

Zhuo Feifan looked at the Cultivator bitten by the Spiritual Snake, his face showing concern.

After all, this was a Senior Brother who followed him, someone he counted on for future endeavors; naturally, he didn’t want him to be seriously injured.

Hao Ming internally rolled his eyes, thinking, I’m as black-faced as the bottom of a pan. Do I look fine to you?

However, these thoughts clearly couldn’t be voiced. He forced a slight smile on his face, “No matter, I can hold on. But that snake’s venom is extremely potent. I need True Yuan to suppress the venom’s effects, so pursuing that youngster will have to rely on all of you.”

“It’s good that Senior Brother Hao is not in serious trouble. Leave the rest to us.”

As an Inner Sect Disciple of Taiyi Mountain, Zhuo Feifan was also experienced and quickly spotted the anomaly, “This place is enveloped by an Ancient No-Fly Array, which prevents us from flying with swords. However, it doesn’t matter. With the strength of a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators like us, it will be as easy as turning over one’s hand to catch and kill that youngster once we catch up.”

“The Junior Brother speaks the truth.”

The others nodded and agreed.

“After all, this is the Ancient Battlefield, filled with countless unknown dangers. We should quickly kill that youngster and then search for the Ancient Spirit Sword.”

Another older Cultivator spoke.

“Right, let’s hurry and pursue.”

The Sword Cultivators chased after Qin Feng in the direction he had fled.
