Chapter 2161 - 2188: Chasing Mark

Chapter 2161: Chapter 2188: Chasing Mark

At the very moment when Elder Wei’s soul completely dissipated, the five Death Realm experts, along with the previous soul aura of Qin Shuyue, immediately gathered to form a vortex about three meters in diameter.

Then, within that vortex, a mark condensed and rapidly shot towards Ye Feng, hitting him directly.

Ye Feng simply had no time to dodge. After the mark entered his body, it disappeared immediately.

Not only that, but when the mark was branded on Ye Feng’s body, three more marks appeared.

Those three marks were branded onto Dao Ran, Shengtian, and Mo Tian respectively, and then disappeared.

"Not good! It’s the Qin Clan’s Chasing Mark! If Young Master Ye Feng’s cultivation doesn’t surpass that of Elder Wei’s, he won’t be able to eradicate it. As long as the Qin Clan relies on this Death Mark, they can find Young Master Ye Feng and kill him!"

Xing Gu looked at Ye Feng and said. After hearing Xing Gu’s words, Dao Ran and the others were completely at ease, not anxious at all.

Dao Ran said, "What are we afraid of? The Xingtian Sword Qi is so powerful, it can even slay stronger Death Realm experts. If the Qin Clan dares to come, can’t Ye Feng just use the Xingtian Sword Qi to kill them?"

Both Mo Tian and Shengtian nodded in agreement, knowing that the energy Ye Feng demonstrated earlier with the Xingtian Sword Qi was not even at its strongest state. They believed that no matter how powerful the individuals the Qin Clan sent were, it wouldn’t matter.

But just at this moment, Ye Feng approached them and said calmly, "It’s not as simple as you think."

"Oh?" Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Dao Ran curiously asked, "Ye Feng, what do you mean by that?"

Ye Feng said calmly, "The Xingtian Sword Qi has fused with this world and can be said to be a part of it. It operates based on the power of this small world, so every activation consumes the power of this world. If it’s to kill ordinary Death Realm experts, that’s okay, but not if it’s to kill those beyond the Fourth Rank Death Realm.

Killing experts beyond the Fourth Rank Death Realm would cause such a massive consumption of this world’s power that it would collapse, and if this small world collapses, we’d have no time to escape and would fall into the chaotic space-time. Although the Qin Clan isn’t very strong in the Fourth Layer Heaven, they surely have experts beyond the Fourth Rank Death Realm."

Upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, Mo Tian, Shengtian, and Dao Ran’s expressions immediately turned extremely grim.

Mo Tian asked, "Then what should we do, are we just going to sit here and wait for death? The Qin Clan might descend from the Fourth Layer Heaven in just a few months, and by then, how do we face them?"

Now, not only was Ye Feng marked, but the three of them as well. If they stayed away from Ye Feng, they would surely die, and Mo Tian and Dao Ran were very aware they couldn’t return to the Demon Spirit Clan or Ascending Daoist School.

Although the Ascending Daoist School and Demon Spirit Clan were top existences in the Third Layer Heaven, they were nothing in front of the Fourth Layer Heaven. If they returned to the Demon Spirit Clan and Ascending Daoist School, they would bring disaster upon them.

Ye Feng frowned, "Find a way to become stronger. The stronger we are, the greater our chance of survival. At least find a way to elevate our cultivation to the Extreme Fate Control Realm, or even the Death Realm..."

"Improvement? It’s not that easy. The Qin Clan’s experts may arrive in a few months. Even if we enhance ourselves considerably, to what extent can we improve in such a short time?" Mo Tian and the others expressed helplessness in their eyes.

Ye Feng shook his head slightly and said, "We have no choice but to enter the Divine Punishment Hall in advance, participate in its ultimate trial, open it, and receive its rewards and opportunities. For now, it’s the only option!"

"Alright, that’s all we can do..." Dao Ran, Shengtian, and Mo Tian nodded helplessly.

At this moment, Dao Ran, Mo Tian, and Shengtian, though resigned, were experiencing unprecedented growth by following Ye Feng, boosting their cultivation by several levels in just a few months.

Yet, they encountered formidable enemies they had never faced before; enemies of abnormal strength.

Originally, they thought of vying for the position of Third Layer Heaven Master, facing adversaries with similar cultivation, probably only Extreme Fate Control Realm at most. But now, suddenly, Death Realm experts appeared.

And the ones they faced weren’t ordinary Death Realm experts; the next encounter might involve those beyond the Fourth Rank Death Realm, possibly Sixth, Seventh, or even Eighth Rank Death Realm experts.

"Alright, stop overthinking and start cultivating, work on enhancing your strength!" Ye Feng said.

Then, Ye Feng took out three Life Essence Fragments from his Execution Ring. These included Sheng Yuanxin, Qin Shuyue, and the Holy Clan’s Elder’s Life Essence Fragments.

"Use these Life Essence Fragments for your cultivation!" Ye Feng instructed them, handing each one a bottle of Acquired Chaotic Spirit Pill to help stabilize their realms and quickly improve their cultivation.

At this point, the Life Essence Fragments didn’t significantly benefit Ye Feng unless numerous Extreme Fate Control Realm experts fell. Dao Ran and the others wasted no time and accelerated their growth.

The Life Essence Fragments were still somewhat beneficial to them since they were just a step away from breaking to the advanced Fate Knowing Realm. Without further words, they returned to the Xingtian Mansion to resume their rapid cultivation.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng also commenced his cultivation, drawing out a fragment radiating a dark glow.

The fragment turned out to be a Death Essence Fragment, left behind by a Death Realm expert. Having slain a Qin Clan Death Realm expert, and previously killing a Xing Clan’s silver-haired elder, Ye Feng now possessed six Death Essence Fragments.

Ye Feng, showing no hesitation, absorbed the power from the Death Essence Fragment. However, as the power entered his body, he frowned, sensing that his life force and longevity were being corroded by the deathly force...
