God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

Chapter 166: Evil Revealed: Crisis Emerges

The cold mist was like ghostly tentacles, wrapping around Chu Feng's fingertips and bringing a biting chill.

He abruptly withdrew his hand, his brow furrowed.

This restriction was even more powerful than he had imagined, and rushing in rashly would undoubtedly be courting death.

"How is it?" Pan Yue's voice was filled with a hint of worry.

Chu Feng shook his head. "This restriction is very complicated. I have no way to break it for now."

Pan Yue's expression also grew serious. "So what should we do now? We can't stay here forever, right?"

Just when the two were at a loss, a rustling sound came from afar, breaking the silence of the forest.

"Someone is coming!" Chu Feng said in a low voice, and pulled Pan Yue to hide behind a huge rock.

I saw several figures in black cloaks slowly walking out of the dense forest. They exuded a cold aura, like messengers from hell.

"These guys... are from that evil organization!" Pan Yue recognized their identities at a glance, with a slight tremor in his voice.

Chu Feng's heart sank. He noticed that although these people were just patrolmen, each of them exuded an aura that was no less than that of a formal night watchman.

The two of them were just trainee Night's Watchmen and had no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation.

"Damn it, we've been discovered!" A sharp voice broke the tense atmosphere, and then more dark shadows emerged from all directions, surrounding them.

The leader was a tall man in black with a hideous ghost mask on his face. He stared coldly at Chu Feng and Pan Yue, his voice as eerie and terrifying as if it came from the Netherworld. "You two little rats, how dare you trespass into our forbidden area? You really don't know how to live or die!"

Another man in black laughed contemptuously and said, "Boss, why waste time talking to them? Just kill them! I don't think these two little guys can even stop us."

The ghost-faced man slowly raised the black staff in his hand. A powerful dark energy condensed at the top of the staff, and the air around it seemed to solidify.

"Looks like I can only fight to the death..." Chu Feng took a deep breath, a flicker of determination in his eyes. He quietly took out a handful of black powder from his pocket...

The black powder scattered silently in the air, carrying a hint of strange fragrance.

This is a special technique Chu Feng learned from an old hunter in a deserted village. It uses the powder of a certain herb to temporarily interfere with the sense of smell and perception of wild animals.

The ghost-faced man didn't seem to notice anything unusual. The black staff in his hand glowed brighter and brighter, and he was about to deliver a fatal blow.

At this moment, Chu Feng's body suddenly stiffened, his eyes became empty and lifeless, like a puppet being controlled.

"Huh? What's going on?" a man in black asked puzzledly.

The ghost-faced man frowned and looked at Chu Feng carefully, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, "Could it be some kind of secret technique?"

Chu Feng turned around stiffly and mechanically repeated what the man in black had said before: "Boss, there's no point in talking to them. Just kill them!"

Pan Yue was shocked, but soon understood Chu Feng's intention. He immediately cooperated and trembled, pretending to be terrified.

Seeing this, the ghost-faced man's doubts gradually dissipated. He snorted coldly, "It seems that he is just a controlled puppet. Kill him!"

Just as the man in black was about to attack, Chu Feng suddenly said, "Boss, I know the weakness of the restriction!"

The ghost-faced man immediately became interested. "Oh? Tell me about it."

Chu Feng spoke in an emotionless tone, detailing the information he had heard from the patrol team's casual conversation about the ban's weaknesses.

Of course, he also cleverly mixed in some misinformation, just in case.

After hearing this, the ghost-faced man showed a satisfied smile on his face. "Very good, you did a good job." He waved his hand and said, "Take them in!"

Chu Feng and Pan Yue were escorted towards the restricted area. They appeared obedient on the surface, but were extremely nervous inside.

Just as they were about to step into the restricted area, a cold voice came from the sky: "Where do you want to go?"

A figure in a blood-red robe appeared silently in front of everyone.

He was tall and slender, with a handsome face, but he carried a suffocating, oppressive aura.

"Lord Blood...Lord Blood Demon!" The man with the ghost face knelt on the ground in horror, and the other men in black also prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling.

Xue Sha's eyes swept over Chu Feng and Pan Yue, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Two little mice, you dare to play tricks, you really don't know how to live or die." He slowly raised his right hand, and a terrifying energy wave instantly enveloped the entire forest.

Chu Feng's face was solemn. This force far exceeded any enemy they had encountered before. He knew that the real crisis had just begun.

"It seems that we have underestimated the strength of this evil organization..." Pan Yue whispered, tightening his weapon.

Xue Sha sneered, "It's too late to realize it now!" He suddenly swung his arm, and a blood-red light shot towards Chu Feng and Pan Yue like lightning...

The blood-red light tore through the air, bringing a suffocating sense of oppression as it rushed towards Chu Feng and Pan Yue.

The two men didn't dare to take it head-on, and each used their own skills to narrowly avoid the fatal blow.

"So fast!" Pan Yue exclaimed. The speed of the blood demon was far beyond their imagination.

Xuesha sneered, and his figure flashed again, appearing behind Chu Feng like a ghost, and his sharp claws grabbed his back with a fierce gust of wind.

Chu Feng sensed the murderous intent behind him and lunged forward, barely avoiding the attack.

"This guy doesn't give us a chance to breathe!" Chu Feng gritted his teeth. Under the bloody and violent attack, they could only run for their lives.

While dodging, Chu Feng keenly noticed that after each attack of the Blood Demon, there would be an extremely short pause, as if it was accumulating strength.

"Pan Yue, attack him during his pause!" Chu Feng shouted, while secretly preparing to activate the golden finger.

Pan Yue understood what he meant. He seized the opportunity and at the moment when Xuesha stopped moving after one of his attacks, the long sword in his hand turned into a cold light and pierced Xuesha's chest.

Xuesha obviously didn't expect that they could organize a counterattack in this situation, so he had to dodge sideways in a hurry. Although he avoided the vital parts, a wound was still left on his left arm, and black blood slowly flowed out.

"You..." There was a fluctuation in Xuesha's tone for the first time. It was no longer the contempt as before, but mixed with a hint of anger.

He covered his wound and his eyes became cautious.

"Chu Feng, he's slowing down!" Pan Yue shouted excitedly. The previous confrontation gave them hope.

Chu Feng nodded, a determined light flashing in his eyes, "Let's continue!"

The two cooperated again, seizing the gaps in Xue Sha's attacks and launching continuous attacks.

Although Xuesha was powerful, he gradually fell into a disadvantage due to their tacit cooperation.

"It seems that we have underestimated these two little guys..." Xue Sha muttered to himself, his eyes changing from uncertain to gloomy.

While dodging, Chu Feng inadvertently caught a glimpse of the scene behind Xue Sha. It was a huge stone tablet engraved with strange runes, and the air around it seemed to be distorted because of it.

Every time the Blood Evil attacks, he will subconsciously avoid that direction.

Chu Feng's heart moved, "Could it be... that is the key to the restriction?" He whispered to Pan Yue, "Cover me, I'm going to check out the stone tablet!"

Pan Yue didn't hesitate at all, "Okay! Be careful!"

Chu Feng took a deep breath, and while Pan Yue was attracting Xue Sha's attention, he approached the stone tablet cautiously... "Wait..." Xue Sha suddenly spoke, his voice low and weird.
