Silent all night.
three days later.
Gu Cheng finally replied.
"I. Information on the Golden-winged Clan has been compiled and sent (Attachment 1)."
This clan was once a branch of the royal family of the Heavenly Wind Imperial Court in the Upper Realm, but declined ten thousand years ago due to its participation in the Great Annihilation War.
The core lineage, "Tianpeng Bolong Technique," has been lost, and the existing branches mostly practice "Golden Feather Sky-Splitting Technique."
Characteristics: Extremely fast and sharp, adept at low-altitude combat and feathered soldiers.
The core of the blood vessel test is "Jinpeng True Blood" (synthetic sample in reagent bottle).
II. Preliminary Information on the Eighteen Peak Masters of Xiaoqingqiong Mountain (Attachment 2).
Jin Pengfeng currently has three publicly identified competitors:
1. Lightning Roc (a large bird clan with a powerful background, known for its speed);
2. "Iron Claw Eagle" Li Kong (a lone strongman, infamous for his fierce attacks);
3. Qingyi, a descendant of the Azure Phoenix (her bloodline is noble but her strength is questionable; she is suspected of being pushed to the forefront).
Furthermore, there are rumors that a close follower of a certain envoy directly under the "Heavenly Wind Imperial Court" may also be secretly vying for the position.
3. The Shadow Blade team has been ordered to secretly infiltrate the outer perimeter of the Kunlun Mountains. The team leader, Night Owl, will contact you directly. The password is: "Hakimi North and South Green Beans".
IV. Regarding the "pledge of allegiance" targets, we are urgently screening them.
There is a potential target: Samit Chauhan, the former Brahma warrior god of the Shiva region.
He possessed the strength of an ultimate war god and was suspected of having secret contact with alien races before the fall of Brahma City. He disappeared after the city fell.
There are indications that he may be hiding in the southeastern part of the Kunlun Mountains. If he has indeed defected, he could be a target.
Xu Feng read it word by word, and a warmth filled his heart.
As expected of Gu Cheng, he is quick and thorough in his work.
He quickly replied: "Received. I will be cautious. Please continue to gather detailed intelligence on Summit Johan and his exact location, and assess the changes in his strength."
Additionally, I need a miniature device that can temporarily alter the frequency of qi and blood fluctuations, simulating the characteristics of "avian demon races," which can be combined with the Illusionary Body Talisman.
Xu Feng then closed the communication and carefully read the attachment.
The intelligence from Xiaoqingqiong Mountain reveals the fierce competition. None of the three open competitors are easy to deal with, and there may be hidden forces behind them.
"Shadow Blade Squad... Hakimi North and South Green Beans... Who the hell gave us this code?"
Xu Feng made a comment and noted down the code name and password.
With an elite squad providing support from the outside, his actions will be much more relaxed.
What caught his attention most was his "pledge of allegiance" target—Summit Johan.
If this person really betrays us, Xu Feng will have no qualms about killing him and can even gain his trust in the process.
However, this is on the premise that the intelligence must be absolutely accurate.
For the next few days, Hsu Feng stayed home and rarely went out.
During the day, he would "meditate" in his tent, but in reality, he would frantically simulate and refine Kaneki's fighting style through the meditation platform.
And try to further integrate the newly grown Qi and blood with the "Mountain Wind Falling Star" technique.
His understanding of "wind" deepened, and the sense of "speed" and "penetration" in his swordplay became increasingly pronounced.
Gradually, it began to resemble the "sharp" qualities of the Golden-Winged Clan.
At night, he would study the information on the Golden-Winged Clan and, under the pretext of "understanding the opponent," use Xiaofeng to subtly inquire about more details and legends about the bird-like demon clans, especially the bird clan and the Golden Roc clan.
Xiaofeng answered all his questions without reservation, and even went out of his way to find some ancient animal skin scrolls that recorded related rumors.
During this period, Xiaofeng also brought back information from its investigation.
"Brother, the forces vying for the position of Golden Roc Peak Master have been basically investigated. Besides those three, there are indeed several other ambitious individuals hiding in the shadows. The information is here."
Xiaofeng handed over a parchment scroll.
"Also, regarding the Kunlun Secret Realm... I've heard that the secret realm may not open again for another three months."
All eighteen peak masters will be qualified to enter, but how much they can gain depends entirely on their personal opportunities and strength.
The secret realm seems to contain the ruins of an ancient battlefield, where danger and opportunity coexist.
Humans will also be entering at that time, and the competition is expected to be fierce, serving as a test of strength.
"As for that mysterious messenger of the star god—"
Xiao Feng's voice was extremely low, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
"All we know is its code name, Youquan," originating from the inner mountain of the sacred Qingqiong Mountain in the upper realm.
Even another envoy from the sacred Qingqiong Mountain treated him with great courtesy.
It rarely appears, but every time it does, it signifies that something big is about to happen.
Rumors circulate that the "Messenger of the Dark Spring" is behind the actions in the Shiva region and even the establishment of the Little Blue Sky Mountain.
""
Xu Feng felt a chill run down his spine.
"Well done. What about the kill list for the Human Race's Ultimate War God?"
Xiaofeng looked somewhat embarrassed: "This... I'm not high enough level to find out anything. I can only tell you that the Allied Forces have recently increased their patrols and hunting efforts around the Kunlun Mountains."
The focus seems to be on finding and hunting down two human geniuses.
A human genius?
two?
Xu Feng's eyes flashed.
"Do you know the identities of those humans?"
"I don't know yet, but I heard they're all from Great Xia!" Xiaofeng said confidently. "Does my sworn brother intend to target them?"
"I can consider it." Xu Feng nodded slightly, but he had a guess about the identities of the two people.
"Alright, keep an eye out. If you hear any news about the movements of any powerful human beings, especially those who escaped from the Shiva region, let me know immediately."
After all, lone strongmen are the easiest to kill, while those in groups are much more difficult.
"Yes!" Xiaofeng nodded and left.
Two days later, Xiaobai returned silently, bringing back a small metal box.
The box uses a state-of-the-art bio-lock that can only be opened with Xu Feng's blood.
There are two things inside:
A set of bio-patch that is as thin as a cicada's wing and almost invisible.
Along with a silver chip the size of a fingernail with an unusually intricate structure and an instruction manual.
According to the instructions, the bio-patch, when applied to specific acupoints, can release special bioelectric signals that temporarily interfere with and fine-tune the wearer's blood and qi fluctuation frequency.
This makes it more similar to the active characteristics of bird-like demons, and the effect can last for twelve hours.
The silver chip contained information about the translation of that secret technique.
All of it was translated by Professor Li overnight. Gu Cheng also stated that Professor Li had improved this secret technique based on his experience in deciphering the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique last time.
"That's enough."
Xu Feng put the items away with satisfaction.
These two things are just supplementary; the key lies in his own disguise and adaptability.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
Thinking of this, Xu Feng immediately opened his tablet, quickly memorized the contents of the secret technique, and then closed his eyes to study it and try to cultivate it.
According to Professor Li.
Because this secret technique is incomplete, its level is not high, only S-rank.
It wasn't difficult for Xu Feng to get started.
Moreover, the Golden Wing Clan also follows the path of comprehending "wind intent," which aligns with Xu Feng's approach.
This technique is called "Golden Wings Across the Sky," which is both a slashing technique and a strange movement technique.
It allows cultivators to change direction unexpectedly at high speeds, emphasizing instantaneous change of direction, and its purpose is extremely high.
Unfortunately, it was incomplete, with only the first part remaining, but it was more than enough for Xu Feng.
Two days later.
Xu Feng was studying "Golden Wings Soaring Across the Sky" in his tent when Xiao Feng suddenly rushed in, his face beaming with joy.
"Brother! Good news!"
He lowered his voice, unable to hide his excitement.
"Xiao Qingqiong Mountain has replied, reporting the elder brother's information to the Xiao Qingqiong Mountain Hall of Affairs."
The assessment will be held in ten days at the "Reception Platform" in the Kunlun Mountains!
A glint flashed in Xu Feng's eyes: "Ten days from now...where is the reception platform?"
"On a floating mountain platform, three hundred miles southeast of Tianzhu Peak, on the outskirts of the Kunlun Mountains."
At that time, birds from Xiaoqingqiong Mountain will guide the candidates who have passed the initial screening to the mountain.
Xiaofeng said quickly.
"My friend from the Deacon Hall also said that because my brother is a member of the Golden Wing Clan and you have the merit of slaying the Poisonous Dragon."
They have been exempted from the initial qualification review and have directly obtained the qualification for the final assessment.
But there are many competitors, so my brother must prepare well.
Especially Zapdos "Thunderwing" and Ironclaw Hawk "Likong," both are determined to obtain the position of Peak Master.
"Understood." Xu Feng nodded. "Thank your friend for me. Let's get ready and leave immediately."
"Alright!" Xiaofeng said quickly. "I'll have someone prepare for the handover of command right away. I wonder who else you'd like to take with you, brother?"
After all, a peak master can bring three deacons up the mountain, and this spot is so precious that many people are vying for it.
Xu Feng pondered for a moment: "I'm leaving this matter to you. Choose someone you trust, or make those who want to participate pay a heavy price in the election."
Xiaofeng was immediately overjoyed: "Thank you, sworn brother!"
Xu Feng waved his hand: "Brothers don't need to say anything else. Go on, and get ready."
My recent understanding of the secret techniques you gave me may increase my chances of winning.
Xiaofeng was overjoyed: "Great! Brother, you can focus on your preparations; leave everything else to me!"
After Xiaofeng left, Xu Feng nodded slightly.
With this "sworn brother's" help, a lot of trouble was saved.
However, Xu Feng still had doubts about this "sworn brother".
He was considering whether to continue cooperating temporarily or to simply use Eternal Fall on him to completely control him.
However, he was also worried that Xiaofeng's bloodline was powerful and that he might have some hidden tricks up his sleeve.
This would alert the enemy and completely ruin this great opportunity, which would be counterproductive.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Feng decided to wait a little longer.
He will only have a greater chance of success once his Seven Tribulations Soul Shattering Technique reaches the Grandmaster level.
Seven Tribulations of Shattered Soul - Master (1060/160)
After glancing at the proficiency level, Xu Feng felt slightly relieved.
almost.
Based on his current cultivation progress, it should take him just over a month to achieve this.
Three days later, at dawn, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
Outside the Blackwind Valley wolf clan camp, a number of figures had already gathered on a relatively open flat area.
Xiaofeng personally selected two trusted confidants to accompany him.
One of them was its most capable general, a high-ranking wolf clan lord named "Cangya".
He was wiry and taciturn, with sharp gray eyes and a calm, composed aura.
The other is a young member of the Howling Wind Clan named "Silver Mane".
Although he is only a mid-level lord, he has good talent, especially in tracking and stealth. What is even more rare is his unwavering loyalty to Xiaofeng.
Hsu Feng had no objection to this.
As for Xu Feng himself, he still had Ah She and Xiao Bai with him.
Ah She shrank his size and followed at his feet like a purple-striped dog.
Xiao Bai remained perched on Xu Feng's shoulder, curiously observing its surroundings.
"Brother, everything is ready."
Xiaofeng stepped forward, now clad in a more imposing dark gold leather armor, with the SSS-rank weapon given to it by Xu Feng slung across its back.
The top-tier battle sword "Mysterious Gold" and its own signature bone sword both appeared spirited and vigorous.
Xu Feng nodded: "Let's go."
At Xiaofeng's command, a high-pitched eagle cry echoed from the depths of the camp.
A giant eagle with a wingspan of over twenty meters, a grayish-brown body, and sharp, lightning-like eyes soared into the sky.
After circling in the air once, it slowly descended in front of everyone, bringing with it a gust of wind.
This was a mount that Xiaofeng borrowed from the "Riftwind Eagle" tribe, a member of the allied forces that was on good terms with the Howling Moon Wolf Clan.
This eagle is named "Raging Wind," and its strength is comparable to that of a low-level lord. It is extremely fast and has great stamina.
It is an ideal choice for long journeys.
The group leaped onto the eagle's back.
The back of the raging wind was broad and covered with a thick animal hide mat, large enough to accommodate more than ten people.
Once everyone was seated, Xiaofeng patted the giant eagle's neck.
The raging wind let out another long cry, its wings suddenly flapped, stirring up a monstrous current, and it instantly rose from the ground, soaring straight into the sky!
A strong feeling of weightlessness came over me, followed by a howling wind.
But for Xu Feng and the others, this wind pressure was nothing.
Xu Feng even enjoyed experiencing high-speed flight.
The ground beneath their feet receded rapidly, and the treacherous Black Wind Valley quickly shrank until it was swallowed up by the continuous mountain range.
The raging wind flew extremely steadily, and its speed was indeed astonishing.
At this speed, it would be more than enough to reach the "reception platform" on the outskirts of the Kunlun Mountains within two days.
After flying for most of the day, we traversed several regions with vastly different climates—from swamps shrouded in poisonous miasma to desolate Gobi deserts and lush primeval forests.
Occasionally, scattered traces of battle can be seen on the ground below.
It could be an abandoned human outpost or a makeshift camp newly built by a different race.
"Brother, ahead lies Hurricane Canyon. The air currents are turbulent, and flying beasts are frequently sighted. Should we detour, or perhaps go down to rest?"
Xiaofeng pointed to a canyon in front of him, shrouded in a thick gray-white fog, with steep cliffs on both sides as if cleaved by a knife, and asked.
Xu Feng looked up and quietly extended his spiritual power.
The air currents within the canyon were indeed violent, and several powerful, menacing auras lingered in the mist.
Taking a detour will waste a lot of time.
"It's fine, let's just go straight through," Xu Feng said casually. "It'll be a good opportunity to stretch my muscles."
Xiaofeng understood and whispered a few words to Nufeng.
The giant eagle let out a long cry, but instead of slowing down, it flapped its wings and increased its speed by another three points.
Like a sharp arrow, it shot straight into Hurricane Canyon!
As soon as they entered the canyon area, raging torrents of water tore through them like countless invisible giant hands.
Even the massive body of the raging wind swayed slightly.
But it was experienced and immediately adjusted its wingspan and attitude, skillfully navigating the turbulent waters.
"Hey——!
Just then, several sharp, piercing screechs came from the depths of the thick fog.
Several dark figures darted out with lightning speed, heading straight for the giant eagle!
Those were five strange birds that resembled bats but had beaks and sharp claws. They were entirely black, with red eyes, and their auras were all around the level of a low-level lord.
It is the overlord of this canyon—the "Demon-Faced Vulture"!
"You're courting death!" A fierce glint flashed in Xiaofeng's eyes as he prepared to attack.
"Let me do it," Xu Feng's calm voice rang out.
He remained seated cross-legged on the eagle's back, without even getting up.
He simply raised his right hand and made a vague slash in the air towards the onrushing group of masked demons!
There was no dazzling flash of blades, no deafening roar.
Only a very faint, almost invisible "hiss" sound swept through the air.
next moment.
The five menacing, masked vultures froze in unison.
Their tough fur and bones, along with the surging blood and energy within them, seemed to be instantly pierced and cut by an invisible and extremely sharp thread!
"Puff puff puff puff puff!"
The five hideous heads separated from the body almost simultaneously.
Dark green blood gushed out like a fountain, and the headless corpse was instantly swept away by the violent airflow and disappeared into the depths of the thick fog.
From the moment Xu Feng made his move to the deaths of the five low-level lord-level ferocious beasts, it all happened in the blink of an eye.
On the eagle's back, Cangya and Yinzong's pupils shrank suddenly, and they gasped.
They didn't even see how Xu Feng made his move!
They only sensed a sharp aura that made their souls tremble before it flashed by, and the enemy was already beheaded!
Xiao Feng was also shocked, and then overjoyed.
My sworn brother's strength is indeed unfathomable!
This move, seemingly effortless, actually demonstrates an extraordinary level of control over power and mastery of timing!
It even involves higher levels of "momentum" and "domain"!
This is something that "Ultimate Lord" can't easily do!
My sworn brother's wealth probably far exceeds what others can imagine!
Xu Feng withdrew his finger, his expression unchanged.
In that attack, he did not use a throwing knife, but rather incorporated the "swiftness of the wind" and "sharpness of the star" of his own "Mountain Wind Falling Star" technique.
Using fingers as a substitute for a sword, it simulates some of the essence of the Golden Wing Clan's signature attack, "Golden Feather Sky-Splitting."
The effect was good; swift, sharp, and lethal, it perfectly matched the fighting style of the Golden Wing Clan.
The raging wind seemed to sense the power of the person on its back and let out a joyful cry.
They worked even harder to navigate the turbulent waters, quickly leaving Hurricane Canyon behind.
The journey thereafter was uneventful.
The group only stopped briefly to rest when they passed a clear lake, allowing the raging winds to drink and hunt, and they also ate some simple dry rations.
The mountains and forests were silent, with only the mournful sound of the wind.
Xu Feng leaped to the top of a rock pillar and gazed into the distance.
The sunlight was like blood; even though there was no sun, it still dyed the entire mountain forest a crimson gold.
On the distant horizon, the outline of an even more majestic and continuous black mountain range can be vaguely seen, like an ancient behemoth lying on the earth.
That place is the Kunlun Mountains.
Just as Xu Feng was gazing intently into the distance, his tactical watch, hidden beneath his sleeve, vibrated with an extremely slight, specific frequency.
A message has been received; it is a disguised emergency channel.
Xu Feng remained calm and collected, subtly using his mental energy to read the information.
The Shadow Blade has approached the preset coordinates on the outer perimeter of Kunlun.
Latest intelligence on "Target Summit Johan":
This person appeared three days ago in the "Black Water Marsh" area northwest of Burial Valley.
He fought a group of elite alien warriors and was suspected of being seriously injured. He then disappeared into the misty swamp and his whereabouts are currently unknown. Our side is still searching for him.
Take care, Night Owl!
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
When the outlines of majestic snow-capped mountains, stretching endlessly as if connecting heaven and earth, begin to appear on the distant horizon.
Xu Feng knew that they had arrived in the Kunlun Mountains.
The closer you get, the more you can feel the grandeur and mystery of this ancient mountain region.
The mountains are majestic, the peaks are covered with snow, and the clouds and mist swirl around them.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is several times richer than that of Black Wind Valley.
The air was filled with a vast, ancient, and yet chilling atmosphere.
"Brother, we've roughly reached the area where the reception platform is located."
