Chapter 1229 1229: Still at the Peak!
Shadow Concealing Step.Others might consider it a common cultivation technique, but as the Hall Master of the Holy Soul Hall, given his extensive knowledge, he knows the legend says it's a technique from the Immortal Realm.
Earlier, it circulated briefly in the Hidden World, but very few were able to learn it.
Even if they did, at most they could master up to the third layer.
However, the swift steps Qin Feng demonstrated just now, along with the afterimages left during his movement, indicate that he's applying the Shadow Concealing Step at least beyond the fourth level!
"The blade in his hand is also remarkable."
At this moment, an elder squinted to look at Qin Feng's Life and Death Blade.
Hun Ao gazed over, surprised again, and said: "If I'm not mistaken, that blade should be the Life and Death Blade left by Lord Tianji!"
"Life and Death Blade, one slash settles the mountains and rivers, one slash to reverse heaven and earth; pairing the Shadow Concealing Step with the Life and Death Blade is simply perfect!"
"Where did that kid come by it? Such good fortune."
"We're lucky too, aren't we? Him bringing the Life and Death Blade here means the Life and Death Blade is about to become ours, haha..."
"..."
Hun Ao raised his hand then and said, "Send in two Grade Eight Grandmasters this time, be wary of his Shadow Concealing Step, just attack from afar."
"Yes!"
Two Eighth-grade Grandmaster protectors stepped forward, starting to form hand movements, preparing to attack Qin Feng from a distance.
Unexpectedly.
In the next moment, Qin Feng appeared behind them, quickly reversing the blade in hand to slash!
Screech!
Blood spurted forth.
The two lay flat on the ground...
"What?!!"
Hun Ao's brows furrowed.
He had heard of the Shadow Concealing Step.
Knew that its effective range wasn't long, making it impossible to reach the side of those two protectors instantaneously.
What just happened?
At this point, Qin Feng's lips curled into a smirk, saying, "Curious, huh? Why don't you send a few more to have a look?"
Hun Ao let out a snort, "Send two more!"
This time.
No one dared to volunteer.
After all, it was a momentary kill.
They were filled with fear.
Seeing this, Hun Ao was quite irritated: "A bunch of useless people!"
He appointed five protectors, spreading them out to surround Qin Feng.
The five chosen were upset.
Why did such an unlucky task fall to them?
No choice.
The five could only reluctantly step forward.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The five simultaneously unleashed their techniques, launching a ranged attack on Qin Feng, who stood in the center.
"What?!!"
This time, Hun Ao and the others watched intently, their pupils dilating.
In the midst of the assault, they saw Qin Feng's peculiar movements, stepping aside in one leap, appearing behind one person, reversing the blade, and slashing, heads falling to the ground.
Then he swiftly continued to the second person, the third...
In less than two minutes.
All five protectors lay flat on the ground, blood flowing everywhere!
"Human Emperor Step!!"
This time Hun Ao saw clearly.
It turned out Qin Feng not only knew how to use the Shadow Concealing Step, but also the Human Emperor Step, it was truly unbelievable!
"It seems only a Ninth Grade Grandmaster can kill him."
Hun Ao remarked.
Logically, a strike from a Grade Seven or Eight Grandmaster should be enough to be fatal for a Third Grade Grandmaster.
Yet Qin Feng had the Shadow Concealing Step up close, and the Human Emperor Step at a distance.
There was simply no opportunity to attack him.
"Let me face him." a elder stepped forward and said.
Instantly his body shook, a layer of brown Gang Qi surfaced on his previously thin body, which suddenly became muscular and robust.
"Boy, go die!!"
The elder launched an attack directly at Qin Feng.
After all, he was a Ninth Grade Grandmaster.
This time, Qin Feng did not easily succeed, engaging in repeated rounds with him in combat.
The two clashed – a blade against a sword, back and forth, unable to determine the victor.
Five minutes passed.
Ten minutes passed.
Half an hour passed.
Very soon.
The Ninth Grade Grandmaster was already exhausted, gasping for breath, yet unable to defeat Qin Feng.
Seeing his fatigue, Qin Feng took advantage of his distraction, placing the Life and Death Blade on his neck, saying, "It seems you've reached your limit."
With those words.
A slash, and the head fell to the ground!
Qin Feng looked towards Hun Ao and the others, saying, "Next, but this time it's better to play longer, too weak and it's over before I've enjoyed it, not satisfying at all."
"..."
Hun Ao was furious.
The elders were also enraged, shouting at Qin Feng, "Boy, arrogance invites the rain, recklessness brings disaster. You're looking for death!!"
This time, five elders directly leaped out!
"Uh, hearing this from you sounds so awkward, isn't it supposed to be something said by the upright? But you only have five people, a bit unfair; it would tarnish the Holy Soul Hall's reputation if it spreads out. I'm just one person, you should send fewer people!"
Qin Feng complained.
His main task was to buy time.
Fewer people make things easier, holding out a bit longer.
Slow and steady!
"Fine! As you wish!"
Hun Ao also felt that despite his mastery of both Shadow Concealing Step and Human Emperor Step, along with the Life and Death Blade, deploying several elders simultaneously was a bit disgraceful.
So he withdrew two, leaving three to attack together!
On the square.
Three Ninth Grade Grandmaster elders began their attack against Qin Feng.
While dodging and parrying, Qin Feng tangled with them skillfully, showing no sign of being overpowered.
This time.
They fought for a whole hour.
In the end, the three exhausted elders, unable to continue fighting, were "reluctantly" slain by Qin Feng.
Indeed, quite reluctant.
Unable to withstand it, the Holy Soul Hall would continually send new people, which wasn't beneficial for his stamina!
Still, it made revealing his power easier.
Just as expected!
Hun Ao wasn't a fool, finally realizing Qin Feng was toying with them!
Qin Feng's true strength far surpassed a Ninth Grade Grandmaster!
"Boy, it seems I've underestimated you."
Hun Ao squinted his eyes, saying, "A Third Grade Grandmaster capable of surpassing a Ninth Grade Grandmaster's strength, if guessed correctly, you must have only activated your potential to achieve such power. You must be tired now, right? Have you reached your limit?"
"In that case, there's no need to fight. Just trap you and wait for your power to drain slowly."
With that.
Hun Ao tossed his long sleeve.
A black Pearl landed in front of Qin Feng, detonating violently.
Immediately.
A layer of black Gang Qi surrounded Qin Feng like a transparent giant eggshell, trapping him inside.
"To break this confinement formation, you'll need to exert all your strength, which will deplete your energy," Hun Ao sneered, "or if you remain inside, your energy will slowly deplete. Let's see how you respond."
"Uh, the limit is still far off." Qin Feng shrugged indifferently.
Then he bit his thumb, smearing blood on his forehead, shouting: "Creation and Regeneration!!"
Instantly!
His body erupted with a powerful surge of energy!
Even his clothes puffed up.
His hair violently swayed upwards with the burst of power.
Moments later.
Inside the black transparent eggshell, it became quiet.
Qin Feng lifted his head, looking at Hun Ao and the others, saying, "Now, I'm still at peak!"
