Chapter Thirty-Six: Borrowing a Tiger's Power to Leave the Mountain

  Du Fei heard that the opponent's cultivation was Inverse Void Second Grade, and his heart began to feel a bit difficult. It wasn't that Du Fei was afraid of this guy's strength, but rather that with his own Control Yuan Sixth Grade strength, it was unlikely he could save the lone horned horse. Among the group of people, apart from the Inverse Void Boundary guy, there were also a group of kids around the same age as himself, whose strength slightly surpassed his own. Du Fei hid behind a bush, shaking his head and whispering: "Sigh, no way, this group's strength is too strong, I won't be able to save you, sorry."

  Du Fei finished speaking, and the blank Heavenly Book lit up with a white glow. Du Fei looked at the words on the blank Heavenly Book: "When did you become so timid, kid? It's just an Inverse Empty Realm, what are you afraid of? Those kids may have similar strength to yours, but in actual combat, I think you can take down three or more people with your abilities. They only focus on cultivating their Yuan Qi and martial skills, whereas you face the threat of death from yuan beasts every day. A true master needs strong cultivation, but what's most important is having a fearless heart. You're retreating with your tail between your legs..."

  Looking at the words on the wordless heavenly book, Du Fei also felt his spirit greatly increased, but he immediately shook his head and said: "You little brat, stop messing with me. If you let me rush out like this, isn't that just asking for death? I've never been afraid of anyone since my rebirth, but I'm not stupid either. You damn idiot, how dare you trick me!"

  "Haha, the kid isn't stupid after all. However, you must go and save that unicorn today, this is also a big test for you. Although it's very dangerous, I guarantee you won't lose your life." The words on the Wordless Heavenly Book were written quickly.

  Du Fei's brow furrowed as he looked at the words on the wordless heavenly book, "Then tell me how to save myself. You must give me a strategy. If I just rush out like this, others will think I'm some kind of wild man and catch me again to sell me off."

  "I took a closer look at those people, and they were all Yuan controllers. The guy in the inverted empty realm was an earth element, two of the kids had powers at the sixth level of yuan control, with elements of wind and fire, and three other kids had powers at the ninth level of yuan control, with elements of fire, thunder, and earth. I thought of a plan, next time you use 'Tiger Leaving the Mountain', can you do it?" wrote the Wordless Heavenly Book.

  "Oh, you mean... don't understand?" Du Fei said with a teasing tone.

  "You damn bastard, dare to play me? Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with you. You watch out, next time I'll take you flying up to the sky and lure away that most powerful old guy, when we're done, we'll turn back and deal with these five little brats, must get the Unicorn from them in the shortest time possible." The Wordless Heavenly Book wrote.

  "Oh, I see, don't worry about it." Du Fei said with a playful smile.

  "Teacher Li, this unicorn's strength is so great!" said one of the five little kids.

  The middle-aged man, known as Teacher Li, smiled and said: "You are now also entering the middle ring of this Devil's Mountain Range for the first time. What you have learned in school must be converted into actual combat skills, which is the best way to hone your abilities."

  "Release the unicorn in your hands, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you." A sudden shout startled everyone present, and they looked around to find the source of the voice. The middle-aged man who was leading them was the first to locate the speaker in the sky, and it turned out to be Du Fei.

  A middle-aged man found Du Fei floating in mid-air and was shocked, thinking to himself: "When did this guy come here? I didn't feel his presence at all, and he can even fly against the sky. Could it be that his strength is above mine? But this guy looks like he's only 15 or 16 years old, it's impossible! Even if he's a genius, it's impossible for him to cultivate to the point of defying gravity at this age. There must be something fishy going on here." Little did he know that Du Fei had hidden his cultivation under the effect of the Wordless Heavenly Book, so naturally, he couldn't see through Du Fei's true abilities.

  The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, smiled and asked: "Hehe, I don't know what you meant by your words just now. I am Li Zhen from the Mo Tu Sect. May I ask your honorable surname and given name, and where are you from?" Li Zhen's words were first to take out his sect's prestige to intimidate the opponent, and then to inquire about the opponent's true intentions. After all, this little boy appeared too mysteriously, wearing beast skin, in case he was someone related to that hermit master, it would be even more troublesome. Those hermit masters had astonishing cultivation levels, but they just didn't like to pursue fame or wealth, so they hid from the world and lived a secluded life.

  "Your grandfather's, you've now hurt my exclusive Hummer, and yet you ask me who I am. This Hummer was originally mine, what business is it of yours whether you're from the Mo Tu Sect or the Dogshit Sect? Quickly return my car, otherwise don't blame me for not being polite." Du Fei scolded in a bad temper, Li Zhen couldn't help but secretly curse when he saw Du Fei's ruffian appearance.

  "You little rascal, who are you scolding? Come down and see how I'll deal with you." The speaker was a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old, looking very displeased at Du Fei. "Liu Wen, don't be rude," Li Zhen rebuked the boy, then bowed and smiled at Du Fei, saying: "Young friend, this child doesn't understand things, please forgive him. You said this one-horned fierce horse is yours, how can you prove it?" Du Fei also didn't bother to respond to Liu Wen's curses, just gave him a cold glance, making Liu Wen so angry he didn't dare speak.

  "This guy is talking nonsense, look at the bandage on the leg of that Hummer, I'm the one who bandaged it. Now can you let go of the horse?" Du Fei said somewhat impatiently. But at this time, Du Fei's heart was also filled with worry, if he was exposed by others, it would be troublesome, now these guys wouldn't peel off his skin if they didn't want to."

  At this time, Li Zhen also flew into the air, still with a flattering expression. Du Fei saw Li Zhen fly up and was shocked in his heart: "Oh no, this guy won't have discovered something, will he?" Du Fei saw that Li Zhen was flying close to him and shouted loudly: "What are you doing?!" As soon as he finished speaking, Du Fei realized that his actions were a bit out of place, so he pretended to be calm and looked at Li Zhen. However, all this did not escape Li Zhen's eyes. Li Zhen smiled and said: "Little friend, what's the meaning of these words? I came up just to get along well with little friend, and I'll let go of this rare horse soon, why should you worry?"

  "Who's worried, I advise you to leave early, the yuan beasts are rampant here, and when you encounter those yuan beasts, your reverse empty second cultivation is afraid that it's not enough to deal with." Du Fei's words exposed Li Zhen's cultivation, and using the yuan beast to intimidate Li Zhen was to make Li Zhen know his limits. This move was indeed effective.

  Li Zhen saw Du Fei and said with a smile, "Little friend is indeed a heroic young man. At such a young age, you have already achieved such high cultivation. I must say that I am truly impressed."

  "It's fine if you know, why don't you take them and leave quickly? Do you still want to stay here and wait for the yuan beast?" Du Fei had a complacent look on his face, it seemed that Li Zhen's flattery earlier was very effective.

  "Thank you for reminding me, little friend. We will leave this place immediately. I will remember your kindness in my heart. However, there is one thing that I do not understand, and I hope you can enlighten me." Li Zhen said with courtesy.

  "Oh, you're really full of crap, go on!" Du Fei couldn't help but feel a little smug seeing his opponent being overly polite like a turtle.

  "Young friend, you have reached such a high level of cultivation at a young age. May I ask your honorable master's name? After we return and report to our sect leader, we can also personally visit to express our gratitude." Li Zhen spoke truthfully, cupping his hands towards Du Fei, releasing a burst of his entire body's yuanqi, which made Du Fei feel the pressure of the opponent's powerful yuanqi, his face somewhat strained. "W-what do you mean?"

  Li Zhen waved his hands and coldly shouted: "Hmph, you little brat is still pretending in front of me. You can't even withstand my yuanqi pressure, yet you're acting like a master in front of me. I've long suspected that you have some kind of treasure on you that's hiding your aura. It seems my guess was correct." In fact, Li Zhen had intentionally released his yuanqi to test Du Fei's strength earlier. He was also worried that Du Fei's strength might surpass his own. He had already thought of a way to deal with it if he was discovered by Du Fei - he would just flatter him and ask for forgiveness. If Du Fei was deceiving him, then Li Zhen definitely wouldn't let him off the hook. As it turned out, his test had indeed revealed that Du Fei was pretending to be something he's not.

  "So what if I know? What can you do about it?" Du Fei said with a mischievous look at Li Zhen.

  "Hmph, you little brat, still stubborn even when death is near, hand over your treasure quickly, and I might spare your life." Li Zhen glared at Du Fei with a fierce expression.

  "Haha, old mixed hair, if you want the treasure on your grandfather's body, then it depends on your skills. Come on." Du Fei finished speaking and flew away with a "whoosh".

  Li Zhen saw Du Fei and immediately fled, using all his strength to chase after him. He was hot on Du Fei's heels, pursuing him relentlessly. Du Fei was also shouting with glee in the sky: "Old mixed hair, old mixed hair, your grandfather is here, come on!"

  "You little bastard, I'm going to kill you today." Li Zhen heard Du Fei scolding him without any restraint and retorted back with a red face.

  A group of children on the ground were bewildered by the two people's dramatic performance and watched as they flew away beyond their line of sight.

  Liu Wen, who had just scolded Du Fei, spoke up first: "This little rascal really doesn't know how to live or die. If I were to meet him, I'd have to slap him a few times."

  "That's right, this little scoundrel..." Everyone also started scolding Du Fei after hearing Liu Wen's words.

  Just as everyone was indignant, a figure suddenly fell from the sky, punching the ground with both fists and shouting: "Earth Thunderbolt."
