Arena of Life and Death (1)

Without lingering in the Wind and Cloud Gorge, Lin Feng ascended above the canyon.

Standing at the edge of the gorge, gazing down, Lin Feng saw the vast canyon, where thousands of people were either walking or running, or engaged in ceaseless battles, the scene grand and magnificent. This was just the area within Lin Feng's line of sight, at most one-tenth of the entire gorge. One can imagine that there were at least several thousand, or even tens of thousands of people in the Wind and Cloud Gorge, which showcased the profound heritage of the sect.

Walking around the gorge, Lin Feng encountered familiar faces, surprisingly Han Man and Jing Yun.

"Lin Feng." Jing Yun also spotted Lin Feng and couldn't help but call out, showing a hint of excitement.

"Jing Yun, you look even more beautiful." Lin Feng smiled and praised. Compared to a few days ago, Jing Yun indeed exuded a more charming charm. Lin Feng guessed that the Resplendent Pill must have taken effect.

Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, Jing Yun's face blushed, she lowered her head and whispered, "No, not at all."

"Haha, Lin Feng, Jing Yun is just shy." Han Man walked over with a hearty laugh. "Lin Feng, we were actually planning to find you, but we didn't expect to meet you here."

"Find me? What's the matter?" Lin Feng asked.

"Lin Feng, have you made a breakthrough after taking the Return to Origin Pill?" Han Man looked at Lin Feng with some anticipation. This guy killed the Shadowy Wolf when he was at the Seventh Level of the Qi Martial Realm. He must be even more terrifying after the breakthrough.

"Yes, I just made a breakthrough. How about you guys?" Lin Feng smiled.

"As expected, I knew even a fool like me could make a breakthrough, you must be fine." Han Man grinned. "But Jing Yun is still a bit short. Maybe with a little more cultivation, she'll make a breakthrough. Qing Yi hasn't come out yet. I think his breakthrough is not far off either."

Lin Feng nodded. Although Han Man was straightforward, his cultivation was indeed stronger than Jing Yun and Qing Yi's. It was normal for him to break through first.

"Han Man, what did you want to talk to me about?" Han Man scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed, leaving Lin Feng speechless.

"Lin Feng, I'm also at the Eighth Level of the Qi Martial Realm now. I want to experience the Wind and Cloud Gorge, but with my cultivation, I'll probably just be bullied. I want to ask for your help. Of course, as long as the other party doesn't go too far, you don't need to take action. I have a thick skin." Han Man grinned and said. Lin Feng immediately understood his meaning. For these rare friends, he would certainly not refuse such a trivial matter.

"When?" Lin Feng asked directly.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to get a few masks." Han Man saw that Lin Feng agreed without hesitation, and his admiration for Lin Feng increased. This guy was not only powerful but also had no arrogance. He had nothing to say to their few friends. After all, in the Black Wind Ridge, almost all the beast cores were taken by Lin Feng, but Lin Feng exchanged the treasures equally with them.

"Okay, just call me when the time comes." Lin Feng readily agreed. Many people entering the gorge chose to wear masks, after all, fighting in the gorge could be embarrassing if you lost or offend someone if you won. Wearing a mask would eliminate such troubles.

"I want to go too. Lin Feng, you have to protect me." Jing Yun said softly, making Lin Feng stunned. He and Han Man both stared at Jing Yun.

"What are you looking at?" Jing Yun gave the two a glance, stomping her foot lightly.

"Nothing, nothing." Lin Feng still smiled. Seeing Jing Yun acting like a daughter, both he and Han Man felt a bit strange, especially Han Man. His eyes towards Jing Yun were very ambiguous. Her words about Lin Feng protecting her sounded particularly pleasant to his ears.

"You can go in, but we have to be discreet." After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng nodded. There were many experts in the Wind and Cloud Gorge, even including inner disciples. However, inner disciples were quite arrogant and disdainful of attacking outer disciples. Therefore, with Lin Feng's strength, he believed that he would not encounter too much difficulty in the Wind and Cloud Gorge.

After all, situations like today were absolutely rare, encountering a top expert among the outer disciples, and an inner disciple.

After discussing, the three of them left. Lin Feng returned to his residence to continue cultivating, practicing tirelessly. Today's events further strengthened his determination to become stronger.

Early the next morning, Han Man first found Lin Feng, and then the two went to find Jing Yun.

The Cloud Sea Sect was very large, with the residences of outer disciples divided into several areas.

Lin Feng and Han Man arrived at the place agreed upon with Jing Yun, only to see Jing Yun's face not looking very good. There was a young man standing in front of her, talking to her.

"Jing Yun, what's going on?" Lin Feng walked up to Jing Yun and asked.

"Get lost, useless, can't you see I'm talking to Jing Yun? What right do you have to butt in?" The young man squinted at Lin Feng and said. He knew Lin Feng because he knew Lin Heng, and therefore recognized Lin Feng.

"Lin Feng, you're here." Jing Yun ignored the young man and smiled at Lin Feng.

"Yes, let's go." Lin Feng gave the young man a cold glance, then turned and left with Jing Yun.

"Wait, Jing Yun." The young man stepped forward, wanting to grab Jing Yun.

"Get out of here, who do you think you are." Lin Feng waved his hand, and the powerful Nine Waves surged out from his palm, directly sending the Seventh Level of the Qi Martial Realm young man flying, spitting out blood, looking at Lin Feng in horror.

"Useless." Lin Feng gave him these two words back, without even stopping his footsteps, leaving the young man with a livid face. When did this useless guy become so strong?

"That guy really doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Jing Yun, who is he?" Han Man walked with Lin Feng and asked Jing Yun.

Hearing Han Man's words, Jing Yun frowned, looking at Lin Feng and Han Man, and said, "He said he saw Jing Feng's body in the Black Wind Ridge, with his throat sealed by a sword. Jing Feng's elder brother, Jing Hao, is now looking for Jing Feng. So, he came to threaten me."

Han Man was stunned, no wonder Jing Yun didn't look too good.

"He will come sooner or later, let it be." Lin Feng didn't care too much, casually saying.

"Exactly, as long as he's not an inner disciple, he won't dare to do anything to us in the sect. Of course, we still need to be careful in the Wind and Cloud Gorge." Han Man nodded.

Not long after, three figures descended from the sky along the iron cable, landing in the Wind and Cloud Gorge. These three figures were all wearing masks, they were Lin Feng and the others.

At this time,

 they landed near a earthy fortress. This fortress was very large, equivalent to several dozen ordinary households, made of earth, but extremely sturdy, enduring wind and rain like a mountain. There were many such earth fortresses in the Wind and Cloud Gorge.

Han Man stretched out his palm and touched the fortress, but there was no gray layer of earth yellow sticking to his hand. He really didn't know how this fortress was built.

At this moment, a figure walked out of the fortress, also wearing a mask. He glanced at Lin Feng and the others, then raised his steps and quickly left, leaving Lin Feng and the others stunned.

Immediately, Lin Feng and the others understood. They smiled at each other and entered the Wind and Cloud Gorge. The people entering the gorge were not weak, generally at the Seventh or Eighth Level of the Qi Martial Realm or above. However, martial artists couldn't see each other's cultivation, so in such a situation, it was strange for Lin Feng and the others to stay together.

Who knew if these three were teaming up to bully people? After all, such situations were not uncommon in the Wind and Cloud Gorge.

"It seems we need to separate a bit." Lin Feng smiled and then retreated, mainly because Han Man wanted to experience it, and he only needed to watch from behind.
