Free Web NovelChapter 1584: Unyielding Bones?
"Hmph. Are you seeking death?"
A cold light flashed in Ling Feng's eyes. He opened his mouth and directly swallowed the bolt of lightning unleashed by the Blood Shadow Alliance disciple.
Although his elemental force had been sealed, the Chaotic Source within his dantian could not be sealed away. Ling Feng could not actively manipulate the Chaotic Source, but as long as it remained in his dantian, devouring lightning was as easy as eating and drinking.
In fact, Ling Feng felt that a Human Emperor level blood lightning bolt was so weak it was not even enough to get stuck between his teeth.
"H How is that possible?!"
The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. In the Forbidden God Domain, aside from Blood Shadow Alliance members, everyone else should be little different from mortals. Yet this brat had swallowed lightning alive.
"I've noticed all of you Blood Shadow Alliance people seem to only know how to say that one line."
Ling Feng's gaze turned icy as he stomped down on the man's wrist.
Crack!
The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple let out a miserable cry, but still glared viciously. "I am a disciple of the Blood Shadow Alliance. You dare kill me?"
"Noisy."
Ling Feng slapped him across the face, shattering several teeth and leaving his mouth full of blood.
"I ask, you answer. If you utter one extra word of nonsense, the consequences will be more than you can bear."
Ling Feng stared coldly at the captive and asked, "How many people have you killed inside the Forbidden God Domain? How many are still alive? Have they gathered together? Which area has the most survivors? Where are the high-ranking members of the Dongling Immortal Pool trapped?"
To his surprise, the Blood Shadow Alliance disciple clenched his teeth and sneered. "Damn bastard. Every disciple of the Blood Shadow Alliance is iron-boned and unyielding. We would rather die than submit!"
"Oh? Iron-boned and unyielding?"
The Despicable Donkey, who was sitting on his back, suddenly shifted his weight.
The disciple nearly passed out from the pain.
"This divine beast loves playing with people who are iron-boned and unyielding. Kid, let's test how tough you really are."
The Despicable Donkey flipped off his back, grabbed the disciple by the collar, and bared a gleaming set of large white teeth.
The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple immediately felt a chill run through his entire body. Looking at the black donkey before him, he was overwhelmed by a deep and primal sense of dread.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Ling Feng remained expressionless. If the Eye of the Emperor were usable, he would have simply used Memory Plunder and saved himself the trouble.
"Heh heh heh..."
The Despicable Donkey cackled wickedly and tossed the disciple high into the air.
"This divine beast admires your iron bones! Lotus Drift!"
Whoosh!
A black blur shot upward as the Despicable Donkey leapt after him.
Though he had lost his demonic essence, his body techniques were hardly affected.
"Aerial Flying Kick!"
"Giant Axe Chopping a Tree!"
"Crow Riding a Dragon!"
...
In an instant, miserable screams filled the air one after another. The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple never even had a chance to hit the ground. This was the terror of the Despicable Donkey's so-called Seventy-Two Divine Donkey Techniques. Once entangled by that bizarre fighting style, even Great Emperors would be beaten until they howled in pain.
"Melon-Smashing Fist!"
Bang!
With a shrill scream, the Despicable Donkey punched the disciple square in the groin.
The sensation of shattered manhood spread through his entire body.
"I'll give you one last chance. Speak, or don't?"
Ling Feng stood with his hands behind his back, looking down coldly.
"I'll talk! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!"
The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple foamed at the mouth, trembling uncontrollably. He felt as if every bone in his body had been broken by that black donkey in the cruelest and most painful ways possible, yet every strike had carefully avoided killing him. This pain was beyond what any human could endure.
"Hmph. That's all it took?"
The Despicable Donkey looked disappointed. He leapt up, stomped on the disciple, and kicked him hard back to the ground.
"Falcon Descending!"
The donkey landed gracefully, struck what he clearly believed was a cool pose, and grinned smugly at Ling Feng.
Ling Feng rolled his eyes and turned toward the Blood Shadow Alliance disciple.
"If you dare lie by even half a sentence, I'll have him smash your melon twice."
The disciple instinctively clamped his legs together and looked at the Despicable Donkey in utter terror.
That black donkey was a devil.
"I'll speak! I'll tell you everything!"
The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple looked pitiful beyond words. He may have had iron bones, but he definitely did not have iron balls.
No one could withstand that kind of torture.
...
Not long after, Ling Feng pieced together a general picture from the interrogation.
As mere outer patrols, the two disciples did not know exactly how many had died or survived. The only thing they knew was that a large group of Dongling Immortal Pool disciples was trapped in the central region.
The Forbidden God Domain had been activated too suddenly, and they had failed to escape in time.
According to reports, they had still been resisting stubbornly a few days ago.
As for the Dongling Immortal Pool's high-ranking elders, they were trapped beneath the mining veins, suppressed jointly by many high-ranking Great Emperors of the Blood Shadow Alliance. Even someone as strong as Saint Lady Hui Yue could only barely hold them off. If the siege continued, she likely would not endure much longer.
"I've told you everything. Everything I know! You can let me go now, right?"
The Blood Shadow Alliance disciple trembled violently as he looked at Ling Feng.
"Let you go?"
Crack!
Ling Feng snapped his neck cleanly and gave him a quick death.
The Despicable Donkey walked over at the right moment and said, "Brat, the central region of East Immortal River is seven or eight hundred li away. At our current turtle speed, it'll take at least a full day and night to get there."
Ling Feng's face turned serious as he shook his head. "It's worse than that. The East Immortal River mining veins are filled with fierce beasts and dangerous terrain. In the past we could just fly straight there, but now that flight is impossible, we can't take a direct route. Add in the possibility of Blood Shadow Alliance ambushes along the way, and even arriving within three days and three nights would be the limit."
Three days and three nights.
Ling Feng clenched his fists tightly.
He had no idea whether Lin Mu and the others could hold out that long.
Taking a deep breath, he tossed the corpses of the two Blood Shadow Alliance disciples into a nearby stone cave and concealed them briefly before raising his head toward the blood flame in the distance and sprinting in that direction.
Those two Blood Shadow Alliance disciples had been running toward the blood flame earlier, meaning a battle had broken out there.
That could only mean Dongling Immortal Pool disciples were nearby.
Since they were his fellow sect members, Ling Feng naturally could not ignore them.
The straight-line distance was only around ten li, but the winding stone forest made traversing it much more difficult. It took him roughly another quarter hour before he finally reached the place where the blood flame had risen.
Whoosh!
Ling Feng leapt onto a massive boulder and crouched within a crack in the rock, secretly observing.
The battle was taking place within a narrow stone forest passage.
The entrance was so cramped that only one person could barely pass through at a time. With everyone unable to fly, the only way to attack was from the front.
Inside the stone passage, someone was using the terrain to hold off the Blood Shadow Alliance disciples in a deadlock.
Because of the terrain, the Blood Shadow Alliance disciples were blocked outside. Though they had superior numbers, they still could not take down the person within for the moment.
