Chapter 288 Challenge
Flames rose from the palm of the golden phoenix and quickly enveloped the two women.
"This is?"
Looking at the blazing flames all around him, Huaizhu was surprised.
"Junior sister, when you get there, go find Elder Li first."
Jin Renfeng leaned close to Huaizhu's ear and whispered softly.
Huaizhu's eyes moved slightly, not understanding why his senior brother said that.
She was about to ask when she saw the flames rising several feet high, blocking her vision.
call--
After a whistling sound, the flames slowly dissipated and the two figures disappeared.
. . . . . .
Chixia City.
A room filled with smoke.
Two figures suddenly appeared.
"Senior brother?"
Huaizhu asked softly, but his senior brother was no longer in front of him.
A small hand tugged at her sleeve, and she lowered her head, only to see Qin Lan putting her hand on him.
Huaizhu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his sister by his side.
She turned around and looked around. A few feet away was a stove, and a tall man was busy cooking with a spatula in his hand. The crackling sound was endless.
Huaizhu was a little confused about the situation.
She was clearly confronting her senior brother and the people from the Shi family before, but after a burst of fire, she and Qin Lan appeared here.
It's like a dream.
At this time, the man who was cooking turned around and saw two girls in gorgeous clothes standing in the kitchen. He was surprised.
"Why are the two ladies here?"
"Master, where is this place?"
Huaizhu asked.
"The kitchen!"
The man responded as a matter of course.
"Of course we know it's the kitchen. My sister is asking which kitchen is this?"
Qin Lan interrupted.
"Yue Lai Inn! Are the two girls confused?"
The man looked puzzled, not understanding why the two people were asking this.
Hearing this name, Huaizhu instantly knew where he was.
At this moment, they were staying in the inn in Chixia City.
"Why did I end up here?"
Huaizhu was puzzled.
"Sister? What's going on?"
Qin Lan, who was standing by, asked with a confused look in her eyes.
Huaizhu shook her head slightly. She didn't know how she got here, but she thought it had something to do with the senior brother.
She turned around and glanced at the kitchen, and suddenly felt that the flame of the copper lamp on the table next to her was inexplicably familiar.
He walked forward and touched the lamp with his hand.
A feeling of familiarity lingers in my heart.
That flame was actually pure Yangyan, and it was the flame she had separated.
Currently, the only one who possesses this kind of flame is the eldest brother.
"Miss, this light is precious! Please don't touch it."
Seeing her touching the copper lamp, the man hurriedly stopped her.
"Where did this light come from?"
Huaizhu withdrew his hand and asked.
"I heard from the shopkeeper that this was left by a Taoist priest. He spent two taels of silver and asked us to keep the lamp burning all day long."
The man responded,
"After explaining it, Daoye left."
"The shopkeeper was afraid that the lamp would be blown out if it was left outside, so he brought it to the kitchen and asked me to look after it."
So it turned out that senior brother had already anticipated the attack and made arrangements just now?
After listening to the cook's story, Huaizhu immediately understood what had happened.
If things go as expected, it should be the senior brother who used space magic to send himself and his sister here remotely.
When one question is answered, a new one arises.
Why can my senior brother use space magic when my father never taught him?
Moreover, if the situation is so critical, why doesn’t senior brother teleport himself over as well?
"Sister! What should we do next?"
Qin Lan's words interrupted Huaizhu's thoughts.
"Listen to my brother! Go find Elder Li first."
Huaizhu said, remembering his senior brother's instructions when they parted.
Now the eldest senior brother is still under siege by the Shi family. In Chixia City, the person most likely to rescue the senior brother is Elder Li.
Qin Lan nodded.
Huaizhu turned his gaze to the candlelight.
Although I don't know what kind of space magic my senior brother used, I think he needs this pure Yangyan as a medium.
Otherwise, senior brother would not have deliberately placed a candle here.
She turned her head and said to the cook beside her,
"Master, please take good care of this lamp and never let it go out."
"I will come back here in two hours. As long as the lights are on, I will give you a generous gift."
Hearing this, the cook's eyes lit up and he patted his chest.
"Don't worry, we will definitely do the job after receiving the money."
“This lamp is also very convenient, it doesn’t even require lamp oil, it can burn on its own.
"It doesn't take us much effort."
Seeing that the cook agreed, Huaizhu pulled Qin Lan and walked out of the inn.
Given the current situation, she must find Elder Li as soon as possible to rescue her brother.
. . . . . .
Above the lake, Jin Renfeng put away his hands.
The two junior sisters around him have disappeared.
Just in case, Jin Renfeng had left a trace of fire in Chixia City.
Seeing the Shi family's ambush, he immediately used the fire escape spell and, with the help of fire, sent his two sisters back to Chixia City to prevent them from getting hurt.
"How come those two little girls are gone?"
Seeing the two little girls disappear right under his nose, the old man in the lead showed a look of surprise and doubt.
He glanced left and right but found no trace of the two women.
"Boy, where are those two girls?"
The old man asked
"Give up, old man!"
Jin Renfeng said slowly,
"I have sent the two junior sisters away using space magic."
“I advise you to stop as soon as possible, otherwise my master will come and will not let you go.
"Space magic?"
The old man's expression changed.
He quickly took out a bronze mirror and scanned the surroundings.
As a clear light flashed, the scene within a radius of several miles appeared in the mirror.
A huge ice ball with a diameter of one hundred feet, a lake, a forest, and eight human figures in the ice ball.
It is as clear as a miniature model.
Seeing the figure on the mirror, Jin Renfeng reacted.
I think these people relied on this magic weapon to determine his movement trajectory in advance and ambushed him under the lake.
"Boy, how did you manage to hide from my telescope?"
Seeing that there was no trace of the two women, the old man looked up and asked.
"I already said it's a space spell."
Jin Renfeng chuckled.
"My space spells can directly travel across distances of hundreds or thousands of miles."
"I guess the two junior sisters have already arrived at Shenhuoshan Villa by now."
"Impossible! If your spatial magic could teleport such a long distance, you would have already escaped from the formation."
"Why would you bother with me here?" the old man asserted.
"You must have used some kind of trick to hide those two girls in a secret place."
"Then guess why I'm still staying here?"
The corners of Jin Renfeng's mouth curled up, an inexplicable smile appeared on his face, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
The magic power in the body surged up instantly, turning into a raging wave of fire that swept around the body.
Clang——
The long sword made a clear sound, as if celebrating the opportunity to be unsheathed.
Flame, the power of wind and fire, and sword energy all gathered together into one.
A flaming sword energy dozens of feet long shot up into the sky.
"Everyone, take action!"
Seeing the enemy suddenly attack, the old man immediately shouted loudly.
"No matter what kind of evil magic this kid used to hide those two girls, as long as we catch him, we can always interrogate him."
As soon as the words fell, six ice dragons opened their mouths and spewed cold air towards the figure in the air.
Faced with six attacks, Jin Renfeng was not panicked at all.
Now that his two junior sisters have been sent away, he is no longer tied down and can give it his all.
It's like a god wielding a sword, or like a real dragon subduing a demon.
The sword in his hand slashed out horizontally. The mighty golden sword energy instantly cleared the six cold airs and slashed towards the head of the ice dragon.
Boom boom boom——
As a golden light flashed across, six ice dragons were instantly chopped into pieces by the sword energy.
"How come this kid is so strong?"
Seeing the six ice dragons shattered together, the old man gasped and screamed in shock.
"It seems that the power of your formation is only this powerful!"
The test attack worked, and Jin Renfeng smiled slightly.
These six ice dragons could be chopped into pieces by a single blow of his sword energy. The combined power of these six ice dragons was probably only at the threshold of a great demon king.
It was almost the same as his three powers combined, but not to the point where he couldn't handle it.
There is no need to leave using fire escape immediately.
"Don't be so arrogant, kid! With the support of the ice wall made of lake water, the power of my formation is endless."
The old man snorted.
"Even if you can chop it into pieces once, twice, can you chop it into pieces three or four times?"
The words fell,
With the sound of ice breaking, six ice dragons broke out from the ice wall and slowly landed in front of the people.
"Your Shi family really put a lot of effort into dealing with me."
Looking at the ferocious ice dragon, Jin Renfeng chuckled and said,
"But to be honest, your Shi family is too stingy. Even if I cut off one of Shi Zheng's arms, there is no need to surround and kill me!"
"It's normal for there to be winners and losers in this competition. Besides, it was your Shi family's young master who attacked me first, and I was just fighting back."
"You are a lowly slave from another family. You destroyed the direct lineage of my Shi family. What else can I say? This hatred will never end!"
The old man shouted.
"Do it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, six ice dragons pounced towards the Golden Phoenix.
"This formation is indeed a bit troublesome."
Seeing the huge momentum on the opposite side, Jin Renfeng frowned and glanced at the thick ice wall.
With the support of this formation, the opponent can summon ice dragons continuously.
If he keeps wasting time like this, he will definitely lose.
"We have to destroy those formation points first."
Thinking of this, he quickly flew towards the seven people in the distance.
An ice dragon suddenly stepped forward and pounced towards the golden phoenix.
Jin Renfeng rushed forward and stabbed the ice dragon's head with the sword in his hand.
boom--
Under the burning of pure Yangyan, the Ice Dragon's skull was instantly pierced by the long sword.
The golden phoenix kept moving forward along the dragon's body.
clack clack-
The seven-zhang-long solid ice was quickly cut in half.
After slicing an ice dragon into pieces, the Golden Phoenix continued to fly towards the center of the formation.
"Everyone, come together and shoot him dead."
The old man shouted.
Six men in black thrust their swords forward.
The pupils of the five ice dragons lit up with cold light, and then they all pounced towards the golden phoenix.
Jin Renfeng swung the sword in his hand continuously, releasing five divine fire sword auras, slashing towards the ice dragon in front of him.
bang bang bang-
The sword energy collided with the ice dragon, instantly chopping off most of the heads of the five ice dragons.
However, due to the lack of wind and fire power of the magic weapon, its power was much weakened compared to before.
The ice dragon was not completely shattered.
Lines of cold air filled the gap in the ice dragon. Under the effect of the formation, the ice gathered and the ice dragon's head quickly recovered.
Roar--
With a dragon roar, the repaired ice dragon pounced towards the golden phoenix again, and its icy breath formed a net of heaven and earth.
The golden phoenix suddenly fell down, and at the critical moment, he avoided the siege of the icy breath. Then he casually slashed out a divine fire sword energy and chopped the neck of the leading ice dragon.
click-
The ice dragon's skull broke, and the ten-foot-tall head fell to the ground with a roar.
Without the icy breath, the blockade quickly revealed a flaw.
The Golden Phoenix flew in through the gap and leapt onto a nearby ice dragon.
An ice dragon next to it opened its mouth and exhaled a breath of cold air.
Jin Renfeng took several steps, and his figure turned into a beam of light, dodging the cold attack.
As he ran, true Qi surged into his eyes, and the method of seeing Qi was activated. He quickly saw the ice dragon Qi vein under his feet, and then chopped it down heavily with the sword.
boom--
The flow of magic power was blocked and the entire dragon's body was shattered into pieces.
In the icy mist formed by ice fragments, Jin Renfeng dodged two cold breaths and pounced on another ice dragon again.
A strong wind blew, and under the cover of icy fog, a dragon's tail swept over from the side.
Caught off guard, Jin Renfeng barely raised his sword to block, but was knocked several feet away by the force.
"That kid can't use his previous sword energy anymore! Keep attacking."
The old man laughed triumphantly.
"You old fool! I think it's time for you to clear your mind!"
"After fighting for a few moves, you should know that my two junior sisters have already left. In this situation, do you still want to fight?"
Jin Renfeng asked as he split the ice dragon.
"Aren't you afraid that my master will get to know the news and destroy your Shi family?"
"So what if those two little girls informed Dongfang Guyue?"
The old man snorted coldly.
"This place is hundreds of miles away from Shenhuoshan Villa. He won't be able to get here in a short time."
"Now that we have become enemies, Dongfang Guyue will come looking for us regardless of whether we stop or not."
"Rather than surrendering, I would rather capture you personally and hold you hostage."
"I heard that Dongfang Guyue likes you very much. Even if we can't force Dongfang Guyue to stop the war, we can at least make him hesitate."
It's a good idea to fight.
Jin Renfeng said to himself.
boom--
Because he was distracted by words, a dragon's tail found a gap and swept him away in an instant.
Then six ice dragons quickly surrounded them, using cold air to freeze them.
His figure was floating, and the surrounding space was tightly sealed. At this moment, Jin Renfeng seemed to have reached the end of his rope.
However, faced with such a critical situation, he was not at all panicked. Instead, a smile appeared on his face.
The other party's guess was indeed correct. His three powers combined could not be used continuously.
That move essentially uses three methods at the same time, which is equivalent to controlling two inherited magic weapons that surpass one's own strength at the same time, and it consumes a lot of mental and magical power.
