In the inner sect, the color of the blood-red sky gradually turned darker, and the sect leaders who had won the killing flag began to rush to their homes. After all, everyone knew what would happen if they failed to send the killing flag back before sunset.
Those who lost the Shaqi disciples were ambushing them on the road, trying to stop them, so a new round of fighting broke out in the inner sect that had just stopped.
Ling Feng also encountered one or two sects, but they were wise enough not to provoke him, because the news that Ling Feng defeated Yu Xiaoling at the second level had already spread, and even if he was weak now, it was not something that a Tong Xuan warrior could deal with.
But Ling Feng remained tense throughout the whole process, fearing that an Earth King would appear midway. The two killing flags in his hands were extremely tempting.
Fortunately, after more than an hour of trekking, Ling Feng was able to see the outline of the Blood Gate without any danger, and could even see a few figures on the city wall. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and sped forward to fly forward.
Nan Ziyi, Lu Qiu Ruyun, and Sinan, who had been waiting for a long time, also noticed the two golden figures in the distance. They were delighted and jumped down the city wall directly towards Lingfeng.
But when they saw Ling Maple floating in the dusk, they all looked shocked, and then faced Ling Maple with heavy hearts.
Just because the three of them saw that Ling Feng's exposed palms, neck and jaw had wounds like cracked porcelain. The wounds were black, twisted, and very ugly marks were left on Ling Feng's body.
"What's wrong?"
Ling Feng said doubtfully. The ugly expressions on the three people's faces made him worried. Could it be that something happened at the Blood Gate while he was out.
After hearing Ling Feng's words, Nan Ziyi's expression softened slightly and said, "Your injury is too serious. How many days will you rest?"
Ling Feng turned to smile and nodded in agreement. His current physical condition was indeed very bad. His body was broken. It would take several months for an ordinary person to recover, even with the help of rare precious medicines.
However, as he possesses the bloodline of Fenshi, one of the three imperial clans of monster beasts, and has been tempered by a large number of natural objects, he does not need to spend such a long time. As long as he has enough pure profound energy to awaken the bloodline, he can recover quickly.
Then Lingfeng returned to the Blood Gate under the escort of Nan Ziyi and three others. He also saw many traces of battles on the way. Obviously, the Blood Gate was also targeted, but due to the large number of formations deployed by Nan Ziyi, the enemy could only
Halfway through the attack, they were unable to advance any further.
When they returned to the city, Qingxuan on the building looked at Ling Feng passing below and frowned slightly. She was still standing where she was in the early morning, as if she had never left.
Luo Qianqiu was still sitting on the steps, holding the Black Dragon Spear in his arms. When he saw Ling Feng coming back, he lowered his head, probably because he didn't want Ling Feng to notice the raised corners of his mouth.
Ling Feng took out the killing flags from the storage container. Lu Qiu Ruyun and Nan Ziyi took them and placed them side by side with the original killing flags. The murderous intent around them suddenly became thicker. The three big flags were fluttering in the wind and looked majestic.
Full.
Ling Feng glanced around and saw that everyone in the Blood Sect was still in the same position as when he left, without relaxing at all. This made him very touched.
At this time, Si Nan, who was standing behind Ling Feng, saw that he had not moved yet and urged: "Just leave this place to us. You go and heal your wounds." There were two long swords on his waist, which were created by Si Nan.
With his own battle tactics, his own strength has surpassed Lu Qiu Ruyun.
"Thanks."
Ling Feng glanced at him with a smile, then found a nearby house and flew in. Si Nan, who was originally proud and arrogant, actually felt a little embarrassed and left with a dry cough.
Nan Ziyi and Lu Qiu Ruyun also returned to their positions, waiting for the coming storm.
The Blood Sect now has three killing flags in its hands, ranking fourth. It only has the three highest combat powers, and one of them, Ling Feng, was seriously injured during the battle with the Earth King.
This is an opportunity for many people in the inner sect. While Ling Feng is healing his injuries, the twenty-one members of the Blood Sect must block those coveting senior brothers at all costs, otherwise Ling Feng's efforts will be in vain.
Ling Feng came to the second floor of the house, dissipated his Xuan Qi and lay down gently on the ground. He opened his mouth and drank all the Xuan Hui Dan and healing medicine in the storage container, and then concentrated on refining them.
Under the power of Emperor Jue and Fenshi, the pills were refined one after another at a very fast speed, turning into a warm current containing pure power that flowed throughout Ling Feng's body along the blood vessels and meridians.
He knew very well that while he was recovering from his injuries, the three killing flags planted in front of the Sect Master's Mansion would attract a large number of people, even the Earth King, so Ling Feng had to regain his fighting power as soon as possible.
The profound energy of heaven and earth around Ling Feng's breathing room poured into his mouth one after another, and then was refined and flowed into the spiritual palace to make up for the previous consumption.
"Mist" filled the entire room, and even strong mysterious energy and medicinal power seeped out from his wounds. This phenomenon lasted until the next day.
This is because Ling Feng's flesh and blood and meridians have begun to heal, but it will take several days for his body to be able to withstand the attacks during the battle. Looking from the outside, it is easy to spot the strangeness of this room.
During this period, the Blood Gate was attacked by five or six gates. Although Nan Ziyi's formation blocked the outermost perimeter, they only attacked in the same place. When Nan Ziyi's formation speed could not keep up,
By then the city gate had been lost.
Because the tactics adopted by the Blood Sect are to first use formations to consume the strength of Tongxuan ninth-level warriors, and then wait for them to attack and then block them. Only in this way can the weaker members of the Blood Sect join the battle. Otherwise, they will be in the city.
In front of the door, he was subdued by the leader of his sect who was at his peak.
After the opponent's strength has declined after being consumed by these two lines of defense, it is now up to Luo Qianqiu and Nan Ziyi to deal with it.
Blood Gate relied on this method to successfully block all attacking opponents, firmly holding on to the three hard-won kill flags.
On the sixth day, Shangguan brought his own personnel to help the Blood Sect, which gave Luo Qianqiu finally some time to rest, and his overall strength increased, dispelling the thoughts of the Tongxuan Sect Master.
Although the Blood Gate struggled to hold on to the Killing Flag, it was gradually thrown away by the other gates.
Due to the unprecedented intensity of the fighting these days, most of the killing flags of the inner sect were concentrated in the nine gates that owned the Earth King, and they changed hands frequently.
Among them, the sect leader of the Thirteenth Pivot Sect successfully broke through and became the ninth Earth King of the Inner Sect. This news made the people of the Inner Sect explode, and they challenged their senior brothers who were in the first level of the Earth King.
Unspeakable suffering.
Huangmen, who was in first place, won nine killing flags by virtue of his strength far exceeding the others, overwhelming the others. Chumen and Yumen, who were second and third, had five flags respectively, and Ranmen, who was fourth, held four.
With so many killing flags in their hands, characters in the Earth King realm began to use a large number of formations to lay down dragnet-like defenses inside and outside the city.
For the Earth King, the Forty-Two Flag Capture Battle is the ticket to the Thousand Sect Competition, while for Tongxuan, it is an opportunity to break through the constraints of Tongxuan and a martial arts platform to prove his strength.
This is a competition between geniuses and geniuses, a battle! No one will be willing to be a green leaf and watch other seniors and juniors shine.
On the seventh day, in the only intact house in the Blood Gate, Ling Feng, wearing a golden robe, was lying on the floor with his eyes closed. The hideous wounds on his face and neck had disappeared. His body, which was not too strong, was flowing extremely.
The power of terror.
A few minutes later, Ling Feng opened his eyes without any warning. The mysterious energy that had been dormant for a long time surged out of his body uncontrollably, turning into a golden impact that knocked down the walls of the house. The roof that lost its support immediately roared.
Smashed down.
Ling Feng stood up and instantly flashed outside. When his feet touched the ground, the building next to him collapsed. The loud rumbling sound alarmed everyone who was resting.
"The door master is awake!"
"Master!"
But after discovering that it was Ling Feng, everyone in the Blood Gate swept away their fatigue and walked over excitedly. Ling Feng noticed their empty profound energy and the tiredness that could not be hidden in their eyes.
And looking over everyone's shoulders, Ling Feng saw the three killing flags still in the ruins, as well as Luo Qianqiu sitting on top of the pile of rocks.
Luo Qianqiu didn't say a word, he just looked down at Ling Feng expressionlessly. The black dragon spear was inserted into the gravel behind him, his left hand was resting on his knee, and the shirt under his robe was stained with dry dark red blood.
During the period when they were away, they must have "desperately" protected Shaqi in order to give themselves a chance to participate in the Thousand Sects Competition.
Ling Feng asked with a heavy heart: "How many days have I slept?"
"Seven days."
A younger disciple replied, which made Ling Feng breathe a sigh of relief. It wasn't too long before he quickly took out the killing flag list and frowned at just one glance.
During the few days he was recovering from his injuries, Huang Pu, who was in first place, actually had ten killing flags in his hands. The second and third place still had five flags. The next six people, including Blood Sect, all held three flags, and the remaining two
Two sides each.
Although there was a big gap between him and Huang Pu, Ling Feng did not feel despair, because as more and more gates lost their killing flags, and after the fight was fruitless, they would start to unite with other gates that were also robbed to attack a gate.
Attack, Ling Feng can take the opportunity to take action when the time comes.
What bothered Ling Feng was how to prevent others from snatching it away. Unless he had an absolute advantage, he would never go out to capture the flag again.
"Lingfeng!"
Just when Ling Feng was thinking, he suddenly heard Shangguan's voice. Ling Feng turned around in confusion and saw that the latter was walking towards him.
Someone who can block Chu Wuliang head-on."
"I come."
A light flashed in Ling Feng's eyes, and he said without hesitation, deciding to wait until he got the killing flag to see how to hold it. Then looking at the smile on Shangguan's face, Ling Feng knew that he had reaped the benefits, and said:
"I originally asked you for help, but ended up selling me out."
"That's cooperation."
The Shangguan did not deny it, but changed his words and replied. Ling Feng shook his head helplessly, the people of Shura Sect are too smart, and they will never let go if there is any benefit.
Just like the five gates attacking Chumen, what they want most is not to kill Qi, but the opportunity to feel the power of the Earth King realm, so they need a strong man like Ling Feng who can block the third level of the Earth King.
This is not considered exploitation, it can only be described as a win-win situation.
ps: I am going to change a lot of plots again and make major changes.
