Unexpected Harvest

They gathered around, enclosing Chen Feng. The atmosphere in the scene became oppressive. Everyone stared at Chen Feng coldly, believing that he was doomed.

Chen Han was a master at the late stage of Meridian Cultivation, much stronger than Chen Feiyu. Even if this scum could defeat Chen Feiyu, he was not enough to face Chen Han.

"Scum, what do you say?" Chen Han's cold gaze contained surging killing intent. Even if Chen Feng agreed, Chen Han would not spare him easily.

"Not so great," Chen Feng muttered after a moment of contemplation. He approached the group with a calm and indifferent expression and said, "If it were in the past, would you have dared to be so arrogant with me? Niceties aside, ultimately, isn't this all for the elixir resources in my possession?"

"You!" Chen Han and the others paled.

This statement directly hit the thoughts deep within their hearts.

"If you want my resources, you can have them. Come and take them. If you can suppress me, it's all yours!" Chen Feng confidently said. Although he was still in the early stage of Meridians Shattering, he had tens of thousands of jin of strength. He didn't consider Chen Han and the others as a real threat.

"That's what you said!"

"Chen Feng, I hope you won't be begging on your knees when the time comes!"

The crowd sneered, and Chen Han took a step forward. Qi surged within him as he struck with a palm, unleashing a howling gale of wind that swept the surrounding earth.

Storm Palm!

It was another high-level first-grade martial technique!

Chen Han made no effort to hold back, unleashing his power with full force. His figure flashed, appearing in front of Chen Feng with his palm imprint unfolding, and a terrifying wave of Qi surged. The figures of the three who followed were all shaken uncontrollably.

When martial techniques of the same grade were in the hands of practitioners at different stages, the power displayed was entirely different.

"Chen Feng is doomed!"

"Chen Han's Storm Palm, launched against the wind, can shatter even iron trees. This scum can't withstand the surging aura, let alone the attack!"

The crowd jeered one after another, as if they had already seen the outcome.

Chen Han also smiled confidently. He had already mastered this martial technique, reaching the perfection. Even Chen Feitian, facing this palm, wouldn’t dare to be careless. With a powerful strike, Chen Han intended to suppress Chen Feng with one movement and personally suppressing the once-prominent genius was going to bring him unparalleled pleasure!

However, unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Chen Feng moved. He took a step forward, facing Chen Han, and unleashed a palm strike. The blood-red Vital Essence broke through the body's restraint and burst out. Along with his palm imprint, a mighty blood-red lion erupted and rushed forward, and the vast palm strength was not weaker than Chen Han's.

"Uh!" Chen Han's eyelids twitched violently, instinctively sensing a looming danger.

However, it was too late now.

Bang... Bang! Dust billowed, and a violent gust of wind swept through. The onlookers, including Chen Feiyu, were directly sent flying by this surge of aura. Chen Han's complexion also changed, and a massive force directly pierced through his arms.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out as Chen Han's arms were instantly broken at the point where their palms met.

Crushed!

An explosive force equivalent to fifty thousand jin of strength.

There was no reasoning behind it, an overwhelmingly domineering move that left Chen Han with no chance!

"You, how can you have such incredible strength!" Chen Han's eyes were filled with horror. He spat blood and slammed into an ancient tree. How could this scum be so powerful? Originally, he thought Chen Feng's victory over Chen Feiyu was just a sneak attack.

But now, it seemed he was wrong!

And he was utterly mistaken.

One strike sent him flying, and even his arms were broken instantly. How could such power be possessed by a scum? This was the might of a practitioner who was on the brink of advancing to full-state Meridian!

"Scum."

Chen Feng scanned the crowd and sneered coldly. "Earlier, you looked down on me and pointed at me, calling me a scum. Now, I'll treat you the same way. But I'm not as ruthless. I'll give you a chance: hand over everything you have on you, get lost, and from now on, if you see me, go the other way. I'll spare you."

His icy words sent shivers down the spines of everyone. The faces of all the present turned pale. Initially, they had come arrogantly, intending to intimidate Chen Feng, but now the situation had turned, and Chen Feng single-handedly intimidated them in return.

"Good!" Chen Han clenched his teeth, his head hanging low. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable resentment.

This scum dared to treat him like this!

"If there's a next time, I can guarantee that your ending will not be so simple," Chen Feng's eyes revealed a chilling light. He collected all the resources handed over by the crowd and then turned and left.

These people were not worthy of his attention.

It was the same as before, and it would be the same in the future. Chen Feng pursued stronger opponents, not these weaklings!

Leaving the crowd with changing expressions, Chen Feng moved on. He finally stopped in an open area and began to sort out his gains. Surprisingly, this trip to the Great Wilderness Mountain had already yielded a significant harvest, although it had just begun.

"Three early-stage Meridian Cultivation and one mid-stage Meridian Cultivation beast's skin and flesh, plus these forty Spirit Element Elixirs, and... two martial technique books!"

Chen Feng's eyes sparkled.

He never expected these people to have so much valuable loot on them. Forty Spirit Element Elixirs were already worth a fortune, and there were also two martial technique books. These martial techniques were priceless, with one being a complete first-grade Dharma-level technique!

"I never expected that Chen Han had such a martial technique!" Chen Feng's mind was stirred.

He began to review the martial techniques.

"A first-grade intermediate-level body technique, Gale Step, a complete first-grade Dharma-level... mutilated martial technique, Eight-Step Crushing Palm! The former is a body technique, and it should have been bestowed upon Chen Han by his seniors. Body technique and martial techniques are very rare and worth cultivating. As for this Eight-Step Crushing Palm..."

Chen Feng fell into contemplation. A first-grade Dharma-level martial technique in Great Wilderness City was considered a treasure. However, this martial technique was different.

Although it was listed as first-grade Dharma-level, it was incomplete, so its power would be severely diminished. Most importantly, the Eight-Step Crushing Palm's strength originated from the practitioner's body, shaking their muscles and meridians to generate a tremendous force. The greater the power, the more damage it would do to the practitioner's meridians.

Hurting the enemy by a thousand, damaging yourself by eight hundred!

This martial technique was extraordinarily powerful. It was said that when mastered, the practitioner could unleash a burst of power eight times in succession. It was enough to shatter mountains and evaporate seas!

But the risks were equally enormous.

Without a powerful physique, one couldn’t practice it to perfection. The body wouldn't be able to sustain it and would shatter completely!
