Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 324 0323: Coercion

Under the guidance of the staff, Cheng Zongyang successfully issued the task reward and handed it over to the sect for entrustment.

The reward was not much, only fifty spirit stones, and the total was two hundred spirit stones. It was nothing to him.

After the release was completed, Cheng Zongyang took the task token and left the sect office.

I glanced at my watch and it was only a little after nine in the morning.

Cheng Zongyang thought about it and decided to continue to practice in his mansion. The renovation of the market hut has not been completed yet, so the sacrifice cannot be carried out. It will take a few days for the Qinglong Chamber of Commerce to hand over the goods.

Now that the main members of the three major gangs were dead, there was no leader, and internal strife was inevitable. He himself became much safer, at least there was no one following him.

Strolling along the way, I listened to some people's discussions from time to time, and bought some special spiritual fruit seeds, spiritual medicine seeds, pill recipes, rare martial arts medicinal materials, etc. from some vendors from time to time.

As long as it can be brought back to the martial arts world for training and use, he will take some of it with him.

He strolled leisurely while Lin Changfeng was waiting anxiously in Cheng's house.

He always remained alert and kept an eye on the movements of the Cheng Mansion. His sealing time was also limited, and he was afraid that once the time was up, the Black Evil Aura would leak out, and Zhangye would be able to track him down based on the remaining Black Evil Aura.

However, he soon sensed something strange in the wooden pavilion. Although he had sealed himself off and could not use his spiritual sense, he could still keenly sense that someone outside the formation was approaching the Cheng Mansion.

Outside the door, Ma Yue came to the door with some confusion.

He waited for the whole morning, but Li Cungang didn't come to his side to get the storage bag, so he had to come here on his own initiative.

Fortunately, patrols in Zi'an County are stricter and more chaotic now because of the affairs of the three gangs, so he might be less likely to be noticed.

But looking at the Cheng Mansion with the formation open and the door closed, Ma Yue was even more confused. He could only wait.

"Ma Yue." Just then, Cheng Zongyang got off a quaintly decorated animal cart and slowly walked into the alley. He immediately saw Ma Yue waiting quietly at the door.

"Boss." When Ma Yue saw Cheng Zongyang coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed with a respectful look.

"Why don't you go in?" Cheng Zongyang asked with a faint smile on his face as he walked in.

Ma Yue immediately responded:
"The formation is open and the door is closed. I left a letter for Li Cungang last night, asking him to bring something to you in the morning, but he didn't come, so I came here in person to deliver the things. Zhao Lide said they were from last night. The letter said that they were burned, so there is no need to worry about any problems. According to the quantity and price, it is two hundred."

As he was about to take out the storage bag, he saw Cheng Zongyang standing at the door, interrupting his action with a serious look on his face. Ma Yue followed Cheng Zongyang's gaze and saw that the host was staring at the formation and the gate, his eyes quickly scanning the surroundings, as if looking for something.

"Neither of them is like this. Li Yihe has a plan for doing things. If he had to leave for work this morning, he would have told me where he was going last night, so that I would know where he was going and where to look for him if anything happened. But he didn't tell me last night, which means he has nothing to do this morning. Even if he had to leave for something urgent, he would have left a mark and a codeword at the door."

Cheng Zongyang whispered, feeling uneasy. He motioned for Ma Yue to leave, and took the storage bag from him and put it into the wilderness world.

Seeing this, Ma Yue immediately retreated to the entrance of the alley. He knew very well that if there was a problem inside, he would definitely not be able to help, and staying would only become a burden to the boss.

After seeing Ma Yue leave, Cheng Zongyang took a deep breath, and immediately took out the entry and exit token to open the formation, but he was already holding a golden talisman tightly in his right hand.

This is a third-order golden bell talisman, which is enough to block the full-strength attack of an early Jindan cultivator!
Cheng Zongyang thought to himself that no matter what danger there was inside, this talisman could at least buy him some time.

After opening the formation and slowly pushing open the door, Cheng Zongyang stepped into the mansion cautiously. His nerves were tense, and he kept an eye on the movements around him.

However, the moment he stepped into the yard, a terrifying pressure hit him in the face.

Cheng Zongyang felt a tightness in his chest and looked up in horror, only to see a black fog covering the front. A pair of cold eyes were faintly visible in the black fog, staring straight at him!

But soon, his innate adaptability instantly adapted to the pressure and returned to normal.

Cheng Zongyang was horrified and realized that he had encountered a powerful immortal cultivator!
Without time to think, he immediately used his inner strength to activate the Golden Bell Talisman. A golden light instantly bloomed, forming a huge golden bell shield that enveloped him.

Lin Changfeng, who was reaching out his hand in the black fog, didn't seem to expect Cheng Zongyang's reaction to be so fast. He actually adapted to his sudden pressure! If an ordinary person encountered this situation, the first reaction would be to run or retreat when encountering such a sudden change.

As a result, the other party actually directly used the talisman!

The only possibility is that the other party knew there were people inside and was prepared!
Suddenly, his grabbing hand was blocked by the golden bell shield.

The black fog surged, constantly hitting the golden bell shield formed by the golden bell symbol. He knew that his time was limited, and once the old man Zhangye came, he would have to continue to escape!

Although the Golden Bell Cover was strong, it began to tremble slightly under the continuous erosion and consumption of the black mist evil spirit. This made Cheng Zongyang look a little unhappy.

"What the hell is this black fog? How can it erode the spiritual power of talismans?"

Lin Changfeng felt Cheng Zongyang's emotional fluctuations and sneered in his heart. It turned out that he was really a congenital martial arts warrior! He thought that the other party was a cultivator who hid his cultivation!
However, the next moment, a smoke bomb appeared in Cheng Zongyang's hand. He threw the smoke bomb on the ground without hesitation!
Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound, and the smoke spread out instantly, blocking Lin Changfeng's sight, but it was useless. Cheng Zongyang had the Golden Bell Talisman turned on, so he was not worried about being attacked. But he was wrapped in black fog and couldn't leave at all. It was as if he was frozen!

Lin Changfeng was a little annoyed by the smoke bomb.

What does it mean? Using martial arts to confuse immortal cultivators? Is this underestimating yourself?

"In vain!" Lin Changfeng shouted angrily. The black fog quickly dispersed, becoming thicker and covering the golden bell halo. Then he said, "I don't want to kill you. There is only one thing. Use your teleportation array to take me away from Zi'an County! Otherwise, I will kill you and the two people upstairs!"

Cheng Zongyang originally wanted to use the effect of the wild beans to see if he could influence the opponent, but the opponent's ability to turn into smoke made the smoke bomb ineffective.

Just when a silver-white talisman appeared in his hand again, he heard the other party's words and his heart suddenly jumped!
As expected, I still underestimated the strength of the immortal cultivator, and my arrangement had obviously been discovered by the other party long ago!
Cheng Zongyang immediately stopped thinking about activating the third-order thunderstorm talisman and asked calmly, "Which faction are you from?"

"Boy, I don't have that much time to talk nonsense with you. You have to take me away now, otherwise those two people will die first!" Lin Changfeng said quickly.

Cheng Zongyang's eyes flickered as he looked at the black fog surrounding him. He remembered the news outside that Black Skull had killed the top leaders of three gangs, and he immediately understood.

The guy in front of him is the Black Skull! He is so anxious, obviously trying to avoid being hunted down by the Immortal Sect!

Now, he felt relieved. Since he was not from any immortal cultivation force, it meant that his teleportation array should only be known to this Black Skull. As for when the other party knew about it, it was not important at the moment.

So he said, “Okay, but you have to release my people first.”

"go!"

Lin Changfeng immediately went to the second floor. A moment later, he took his grandson and the unconscious Li Cungang and Li Yihe into the study. Cheng Zongyang silently led him into the underground teleportation array.

At the same time, the formation was reopened to prevent anyone from discovering this place later.

"Wait!" Lin Changfeng suddenly asked, "Where does that new teleportation array on the left lead to?"

Cheng Zongyang stopped walking towards the teleportation array on the left and felt a chill in his heart.

This guy has been here more than once! He even knew that the new formation was set up later.

He said calmly, "The right one leads to a cave outside the city. The left one leads to a sparsely populated island lake thousands of miles away. That is one of my transfer points, and basically no one knows about it."

Lin Changfeng stared at Cheng Zongyang, who seemed to have no signs of lying, and immediately said, "Then go to the left! Let's go!"

As he said that, he pushed Cheng Zongyang and entered the formation.

A thousand miles away was enough for him to quickly avoid Zhangye’s pursuit!

Cheng Zongyang slowly took out the token, staring at the object in his hand. When he was about to insert it into the formation, he tilted his head slightly and said in a deep voice: "It's really inconvenient to take them two with you. I'll just go with you."

Lin Changfeng glanced at the activation token in Cheng Zongyang's hand, his eyes flickered. He swept his eyes over the two people sleeping on the ground, then he gently raised his left hand, and an invisible force surged out, and the two people on the ground were like being caught by an invisible big hand, and he threw them out easily.

Then, Lin Changfeng quickly put his left hand on Cheng Zongyang's shoulder and shouted in a low voice: "Go!"

Seeing this, Cheng Zongyang no longer hesitated and decisively inserted the token into the formation. As he manipulated it, a brilliant light flashed, and the three of them instantly disappeared into the underground transmission room.

Not long after they left, Zhangye suddenly appeared above Cheng Mansion like a ghost.

He stared at the floating jade bottle in front of him quietly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. Then, he looked in the direction where the black evil disappeared, raised his head to the sky, and frowned slightly.

Then, he slowly landed at the gate of Cheng Mansion. Looking at the mansion in front of him, Zhangye thought to himself: "Is this the place those disciples talked about?"

His expression was calm, like a deep pool of water, without any trace of emotion. Then, he took out a triangular golden token, which emitted a flowing golden light.

Holding the token, Zhangye ignored the formation and walked into Cheng Mansion as if he was in an empty place.

His spiritual sense spread out like a tide, carefully exploring every corner. When his spiritual sense passed the wooden pavilion, he keenly sensed the remnant of Lin Changfeng's breath. But he did not find the teleportation room in the basement.

He took out the rumor jade slip and prepared to let the sect disciples control this place. Whatever the relationship was, it would be clear after investigation.

At the same time, on a small island near the abyss of the East China Sea, a flash of light appeared, and Cheng Zongyang, Lin Changfeng, and the sleeping boy behind them appeared there.

But the next moment after he appeared, Cheng Zongyang quickly took back the token of the teleportation array and several top-grade spirit stones, and quickly said: "Only if the token on this side is cut off, even if someone over there chases us, they won't be able to get through."

Lin Changfeng ignored Cheng Zongyang's words, and instead used his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings like a scanner. Suddenly, his eyes fixed on Cheng Zongyang, and his eyes revealed anger: "How dare you play tricks on me!"

Firstly, this is not an island lake, and secondly, the spiritual energy here is almost non-existent. It is definitely not the place Cheng Zongyang mentioned!

Lin Changfeng shouted angrily, and the hand on Cheng Zongyang's shoulder suddenly squeezed, and a powerful force surged out instantly, as if to crush Cheng Zongyang's shoulder. He was filled with anger, and he didn't expect Cheng Zongyang to dare to plot against him under his nose.

But the next moment, Lin Changfeng's expression changed drastically.

Cheng Zongyang's figure suddenly disappeared in front of him, and was replaced by three talismans flashing with silver-white lightning!

"What, a third-order thunderstorm..."

Lin Changfeng recognized what this talisman was at first sight, and his expression instantly became extremely ugly.

This third-order thunderstorm talisman is extremely powerful. If he is included in it, the continuous third-order thunderstorms will be enough to bring him serious consequences!

Without any hesitation, he quickly turned into a black mist, wrapped up his grandson, and fled from here as quickly as possible.

The black fog rushed away like lightning, and Lin Changfeng's heart was filled with anger and vigilance.

Not long after Lin Changfeng turned into black mist and escaped, three thunderstorm talismans exploded at the same time!
A huge roar sounded, and the entire small island reef was enveloped by strong light and shock waves. At this moment, the small island reef was turned into powder under the terrifying thunderstorm circle. The sea water was lifted up dozens of feet high, and the small coral reefs under the sea were instantly blown to pieces.

The black fog, which had not escaped far, was hit by the rapidly erupting lightning and was directly dispersed!
But the black fog still flew away at a very fast speed, not daring to stop at all. Finally, after moving away from the thunderstorm circle, it condensed into a ball again and turned into its original form.

At this time, Lin Changfeng's face turned pale, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. Looking at the thunderstorm circle that was still bombarding the sea surface several miles away, the murderous intent in his eyes reached its peak!
He was also very puzzled as to how the boy disappeared, but he casually offered a third-level thunderstorm talisman worth hundreds of spirit stones, which showed that the other party had considerable financial resources. He was indeed qualified to trade foundation-building pills at will!

While he had a strong desire to kill Cheng Zongyang, his curiosity about his identity also grew.

He did not leave, but released a flying shuttle that he usually used for transportation to the sea, allowing his comatose grandson to continue to rest and recover from his injuries.

Being schemed against by a warrior-level kid and getting injured was such a shame and humiliation for him! How could he bear this?
Just now, Cheng Zongyang disappeared without any spatial fluctuations, which meant that he did not move away. Instead, he hid himself in some unknown way!
"Since you are hiding, I don't believe you won't come out!"

About a cup of tea later, the sea gradually returned to calm after the explosion.

But there were many sea creatures floating on the sea, and the sea was turbid. Just as Lin Changfeng was sensing Cheng Zongyang, he appeared again.

Seeing this, Lin Changfeng, who was several miles away, revealed a hint of murderous intent and interest at the corner of his mouth. After activating the protective magic circle for the magic weapon, he flew towards Cheng Zongyang again!

Cheng Zongyang reappeared, looked at the situation around him, took a deep breath, and adjusted his state.

This result was within his expectations.

The No. 2 teleportation array was destroyed, but the loss was not too great. We could set up a new one later. This was not the first island or reef, so we were not worried. After all, the most important top-grade spirit stone had been recovered.

He understood that he had to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise once Lin Changfeng reacted, he would be in danger again.

The only reason I brought him to the martial arts world is to kill him here!

He turned around and was about to look around, but his pupils suddenly shrank. Lin Changfeng was approaching this side rapidly from the east, and was not far away!
