Seeking the Immortal Way

"Be careful!" Lin Ce saw that Nie Qingfeng was in danger, and anxiously shouted, and quickly flew towards his direction, but from the speed point of view, Lin Ce did not have enough time to help, and his own situation was not looking good, if he wanted to save him, he would not have the time either.

The wind howled behind him, and it was aimed at his fatal position. If he was hit, then he would be dead for sure, but facing such a dangerous situation, Nie Qingfeng had no way out, and could only wait for his death.

Just as the sharp claws were about to touch Nie Qingfeng's body, a huge arrow suddenly shot out from the sky, landing the Level 7 spirit beast on the ground. It spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled a few times, and died.

In his heart, he thought that if the arrow had not arrived in time, he really would have fallen here today. If he had returned to the Ningshui City alive, he would definitely have thanked this person who operated the giant crossbow.

Before this, Nie Qingfeng was skeptical of the fact that the one controlling the giant crossbow would hit him. Now, it seemed that the one controlling the giant crossbow was an expert.

Very quickly, under the attack of Lin Yan's Crossbow and arrow, out of the eight Stage Seven spirit beast, only two remained.

One of the Stage Seven spirit beast still charged towards the two. Lin Ce and Nie Qingfeng were not ordinary people either, if the two of them worked together, it would be easy for them to kill the spirit beast.

The last spirit beast seemed to have sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly turned around and ran far away.

Just as Nie Qingfeng was about to give chase, he was stopped by Lin Ce. He said with a smile, "No need, hand it over to the crossbow on the city wall. I want to believe that he definitely won't let this Stage Seven spirit beast escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light appeared in the sky far away and cut through the air. Like a shooting star, it was exceptionally dazzling, and shot straight towards the spirit beast that was escaping, causing the arrow to spin extremely fast. When it descended, it was even faster.

Pu, the arrow pierced through the body of the spirit beast of the seventh step, causing blood to spurt out. The spirit beast let out a miserable howl, and after struggling for a bit, it stopped moving.

Lin Ce looked at the situation far away as a faint smile played at the corner of his mouth. He knew in his heart that the battle had already ended and all the spirit beast had been killed, so the next step was to clean up the battlefield.

Nie Qingfeng glanced at the city gate tower in the distance and was a little doubtful. He asked Lin Ce who was beside him, "Brother Lin, do you know the person who operated the giant crossbow on top of the city wall? I remember that in this city, other than you and me, there was no one else who managed to reach Ethereal Opening Realm's level with their Cultivation Level. "

Lin Ce laughed and said to Nie Qingfeng, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be him. I don't know his name, it's just that his ability is outstanding, his swordsmanship is extraordinary, he fought alongside me at the back door, and was able to quickly kill off the group of spirit beast behind the Ningshui City. It's all thanks to this person who has a plan. Thus, this battle can be said to have done a great deal. "

In his impression, Lin Ce was a person who did not hold back. As a son of heaven, he did not praise anyone from his mouth, but when this person was mentioned, Lin Ce's brows showed an additional trace of admiration, which was definitely not easy.

Nie Qingfeng smiled and nodded. "Based on what you said, I really want to meet this person and see what kind of talent can make you praise him so highly."

Lin Ce nodded and said: "Don't worry, this person will definitely not disappoint you."

The two of them talked as they walked in the direction of the Ningshui City in front of them.

Lin Yan called out to Long Fei and the other two, helping to clean up the battlefield. Everyone was extremely busy, with expressions of victory on their faces, as though they were filled with energy.

Lin Ce found Lin Yan and said smilingly: "Was the one who controlled the gigantic arrow crossbow on top of the city walls you?"

Lin Yan smiled and nodded. He did not answer and silently agreed.

Nie Qingfeng looked incredulous, sizing up Lin Yan who was in front of him. Lin Yan saw that although he was dressed in a white robe and had gone through a huge battle, he was still spotlessly handsome, especially his bright eyes, which left a deep impression on everyone.

However, this person's Cultivation Level only had late period of Foundation Stage, and was the lowest level existence among almost everyone here. It was truly inconceivable that such a person could survive on such a tragic battlefield without the slightest injury.

Lin Ce laughed, then cupped his hands towards Lin Yan and said: "I am Lin Ce from the Lin Clan, and standing beside me is the eldest disciple of the younger generation of the Heavenly Sea Sect, Nie Qingfeng, what might your name be, friend?"

Lin Yan cupped his hands and smiled: "My name is Lin Yan, a disciple of the Sky Cloud Martial Sect. I previously took a mission in the sect and was preparing to head to the Five Yuan Mountain to gather Crimson Pearl Grass.

Nie Qingfeng nodded his head as he listened to Lin Yan's words. He was very pleased in his heart, because although this person's cultivation wasn't high, he had the determination to conquer the world.

Lin Ce looked into the distance and realized that the sky had already turned white. The sun was about to rise and the scene in front of the city seemed to have become much brighter.

Nie Qingfeng looked at the corpses of the spirit beast and the broken limbs of some of the cultivators outside the city. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh as he said, "In this battle, our losses were truly disastrous. When we return to our sect, I'll definitely report everything that happened here to the sect and let the elders thoroughly investigate this matter."

Lin Ce also nodded, and continued, "That's right, this Ningshui City has always been a place of business. Their history can be traced back to a hundred years, and there has never been an attack on such a large scale by a spirit beast.

Lin Yan stood on top of the city wall, and looked at the empty ground outside the city wall. There were many corpses of spirit beast everywhere, and many of them were already completely unrecognizable, and he couldn't even tell what kind of spirit beast they were.

At this time, City Lord Lu Mingyuan came here. He clasped his hands at the three people and said excitedly, "Thank you for your help in this war, otherwise, this thousand year old Ningshui City would have been destroyed."
