The God of War.

After hearing Elder He's solution, the crowd suddenly became lively. However, Elder He had already left, leaving everyone with a big question.

——Why did Elder He protect Lin Fei like this?

Is it just because Lin Fei is a freshman? However, Elder He has always been a very strict elder. Since Elder He took charge of the Mission Hall for ten years, no one has dared to cause trouble in the Mission Hall, not even the old students dared, let alone a freshman.

So, some people began to inquire about the background of this Lin Fei, whether he was a relative or illegitimate son of an elder or the sect leader.

However, no matter how much they investigate, the news of Lin Fei’s disturbance in the Mission Hall today will surely spread throughout the entire Three Swords Sect’s outer sect tomorrow.

But people didn't want to know what Fifth Senior Brother would think. Therefore, many people didn't dare to look at Fifth Senior Brother at this time, fearing that Fifth Senior Brother would bring bad luck to them. They didn't have the courage like Lin Fei.

After Elder He left, Fifth Brother looked at Lin Fei with resentment and left.

Lin Fei did not leave, but continued to accept three red tasks. Then he learned about some things after the tasks from his senior brother in the Mission Hall, and then left the Mission Hall.

After returning to his cave and preparing some things needed to complete the task, Lin Fei went straight out of the sect early the next morning.

The three tasks were to hunt a second-level flame wolf, pick a plant of Iron Sword Golden Heart Grass, and then go to Ligen Mountain to explore Tianyin Cave and find out the reason why the fog on Ligen Mountain had formed in the past month.

These three tasks have been posted in the red task area for a few days and no one has dared to take them. Although they are all red tasks, they also have different levels of difficulty and danger. No one has taken them, which shows that the difficulty of these three tasks is quite high.

Especially the third mission, to explore the cause of the fog in Tianyin Cave of Ligen Mountain. If you can't bring back something substantial, others will not believe whether the mission you have completed is true or false.

Moreover, this fog must be formed by a demon or a monster. It is not something that ordinary people can do to form a fog on such a large mountain that does not dissipate for a month and has a tendency to get heavier and bigger. Therefore, no matter how difficult and dangerous it is, it is very high.

However, there is also a possibility, what if this is an opportunity? Isn't it true that some underground treasures will form a foggy maze before they are revealed to protect the treasure from being taken by people?

However, no matter what the reason is, the person who posted the task must have his intentions in posting such a task with a large sum of money.

One hundred and fifty points! This is not the amount of points that a normal task would earn.

In order not to attract attention, Lin Fei set out early in the morning.

Unexpectedly, less than ten miles after leaving the sect, Lin Fei felt as if someone was following him. Who was it?

Seeing the figure flashing behind him, he was at least at the peak of the foundation building stage or the early spiritual stage. After thinking about it, Lin Fei couldn't guess who it was because he didn't have any enemies in the Three Swords Sect.

Finally, he thought of the Mission Hall and his fifth senior brother.

"No way, you remembered such a small thing?"

Lin Fei just smiled and shook his head helplessly. If a martial artist has such a narrow mind, he is destined to never reach any heights.

But after thinking about it, there is no one else.

While thinking, Lin Fei did not slow down, but instead quickened his pace.

Although his cultivation had not made any breakthroughs after entering the Three Swords Sect a month ago, his Heaven-Swallowing Divine Art had improved a lot, especially the Shadow Step, which had at least reached perfection.

This is also the reason why he suddenly disappeared in front of Fifth Brother that day.

Seeing Lin Fei quicken his pace, the people following him also quickened their pace. People at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage are different from those at the Qi Training stage. They can use and absorb spiritual energy freely. Therefore, when Lin Fei did not use the Flash Step, it was very easy for the people following him to keep up with Lin Fei.

However, Lin Fei would not let them get too close. Of course, they did not dare to openly hunt down a disciple of the Three Swords Sect on the sect's territory.

One day passed, and the game of chasing and being chased lasted until the evening. This place had already left the territory of the Three Sword Sect. Another fifty miles away was the Cangming Mountain where Lin Fei was going, because only there were Flame Wolves.

Because there was plenty of time, Lin Fei decided to rest for a night. One reason was to deal with the tail end. If he didn't deal with it here, it would be very troublesome when he arrived at Cang Ming Mountain.

Secondly, after dealing with Ba behind him, he decided to find a place to break through to the seventh level of foundation building. He had accumulated too much time at the sixth level of foundation building, and everything had come to a point where it was a natural progression. This was also the reason why Lin Fei dared to take on so many tasks. If he could reach the seventh level of foundation building, he estimated that he could easily solve the peak of foundation building without using high-level martial arts.

He found a quiet valley with high cliffs on three sides and only one exit, which was just right for him to make use of the advantages of his formation. Although it had only been half a year since the beginning, he had not slacked off in practicing martial arts, formation elixirs, etc. He just had never had the chance to use them.

Today, he wanted to test the level of his formation.

After looking at the whole valley, a formation soon entered Lin Fei's mind, the Soul-confusing Pocket Formation. This is a formation that combines restraint and confusion of the mind. It can not only confuse the opponent's mind, but also slow down the opponent's speed to the maximum. Of course, you can enter and exit at will. The disadvantage is that this formation has no attack power.

Lin Fei used this formation precisely because of this. If the opponent was from the Three Swords Sect, he would still have some sympathy, after all, they were from the same sect, and if he could leave a glimmer of hope, he would leave a glimmer of hope. Of course, if he couldn't leave a glimmer of hope, he would let go and cut off all hope of the opponent.

Soon, the formation stones were placed in various positions. Lin Fei finally placed a spiritual stone in the center of the formation. An invisible force instantly enveloped the area. If Lin Fei did not activate the formation mechanism, the mission personnel would not feel that this place was already a cage.

At night, the deserted valley is as quiet as it should be, with only the chirping of some mountain insects and night birds, and the roaring of some wild beasts, making the entire valley even more dead silent.

No one knows what will happen behind this silence.

Lin Fei did not rest. He sat upright on a stone about ten feet wide, practicing while bathing in the light of the bright moon above his head. In the night, the spiritual energy and various energies in the space were sucked into his body by the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Cauldron. If you look closely, you can see that a huge vortex is slowly rotating with Lin Fei as the center.

The energy sucked into the vortex entered Lin Fei's body, and then entered the divine cauldron, where it was refined and compressed into pure spiritual liquid and entered his dantian.

At this moment, Lin Fei was like an immortal, an immortal bathing in the bright moon without a trace of dust.

Three dark shadows sneaked in quietly, like three ghosts, without making a sound.

They stopped twenty feet away from Lin Fei, and then disappeared into the jungle silently.

Lin Fei actually knew about the three people's infiltration a long time ago. However, when someone comes, no matter if they are friends or enemies, he has to entertain them to show his host's demeanor.

Glancing sideways at the place where the three people disappeared, Lin Fei let out a slight smile.

"I've been following you for so long, why are you still hiding?"

The night moon cast a soft glow, making the deep forest even more mysterious. As the night deepened, the chirping of various insects and birds slowly died down, as if their singing in high and low pitches just now was to set off the upcoming climax.

Just after midnight, the three of them could no longer hold back and with a glance, the fifth brother and two inner sect disciples surrounded them from three different places.

However, they were not so presumptuous, but slowly slowed down their steps. Based on the battle between Fifth Senior Brother and Lin Fei yesterday, Fifth Senior Brother certainly would not think that Lin Fei was just a weakling at the sixth level of foundation building.

Coming from three directions, it was obvious that they were not going to give Lin Fei any chance to escape.

It seems that tonight they are ready to fight to the death. In such a deep forest, if you kill a person, all traces will disappear without a trace before dawn.

A large number of spiritual beasts in the forest are watching with wide eyes. As soon as they smell the blood, they will rush over madly.

When they were still five meters away from Lin Fei, the three of them stopped, obviously wondering whether Lin Fei was really asleep.

Of course Lin Fei didn't sleep. He was watching every move of the three men. He knew who was going to attack him, but he didn't expect that the fifth senior brother would act so quickly.

"You really are unscrupulous. Don't blame me for being ruthless!" Lin Fei simply stood up and faced the three people.

"Don't hide anymore, come out. How long are you going to last if you keep hiding like this? Let's get this over with quickly. I have other things to do, so I don't have that much time to play with you guys."

"Fifth Senior Brother, what do you think?" Looking at the three people, two of whom were in the early stage of spiritual phase, although Lin Fei felt a little dignified in his heart, his face was still calm and had a smile on it.

"Since you already know everything, I will tell you the truth. I spent a lot of money to invite these two inner disciples, Senior Brother Jia and Senior Brother Yu. If you are smart, hand over your treasures. I don't believe in fighting against opponents of higher levels. You are just a mere sixth-level foundation-building cultivator. If you don't have any treasures, how could you crush me so easily? Whatever the treasure is, hand it over to us, and maybe we can give you a chance to live."

Fifth Brother couldn't care less at this moment. Originally, he had lost face in front of so many fellow disciples, and he was ready to kill, but he didn't dare to do so in front of Elder He.

When he knew that Lin Fei had finally accepted the mission, the fifth senior brother guessed that Lin Fei would definitely leave the sect to complete the mission after accepting it. Thinking that the opportunity for revenge had come, he spent a huge amount of money to destroy Lin Fei.

This wilderness is a perfect place to kill and rob! One is revenge, the other is to take the money, killing two birds with one stone.

Lin Fei was not a clay figure who could be manipulated by anyone. From the way they surrounded him just now, he already knew that the cultivation level of those two senior brothers was only at the initial stage of spiritual phase, having just entered the circle.

This is the fact. With Fifth Senior Brother's financial resources and character, how could he possibly be able to hire those senior brothers who are truly powerful and have high levels of cultivation?

"Now that we've come to this point, there's no point in saying more. I never expected that the fifth senior brother, who is ranked second in the outer sect, would be such a petty and mean person. He can't stand such a blow. I think your level is only now."

Killing someone to stab him in the heart. Since you know that Fifth Brother is a villain, I won't be polite. I have already killed you with a knife, so why should I be afraid of twisting the knife in your wound again?

The fifth brother was originally a narrow-minded person, so how could he withstand Lin Fei's provocation? He was immediately furious and his hair stood on end. "Lin Fei, if I don't kill you today, I will change my name."

After saying that, he didn't care about his senior brother's face anymore. His spiritual power wrapped around the tip of the knife, and it rushed towards Lin Fei like a ball of blue flame in the dark night.

"Little bastard, I'm going to kill you!" The fifth brother attacked violently.

The scimitar with spiritual power shone brightly under the urging of the fifth brother who was at the peak of foundation building. The fifth brother was indeed the second in the outer sect. He had gone through a lot of training to reach this level. For ordinary martial artists, the fifth brother did have some skills. It was a pity that he met Lin Fei. Maybe it was because of the bad year or bad luck.

Lin Fei watched as Fifth Senior Brother's knife grew bigger and bigger in front of his eyes, and his domineering aura continued to press on him, but he still just watched quietly, leaving the other two inner disciples confused.

"This idiot, why does Xiao Wuzi need the two of us to help him? This can't be done with just one sword, right?"

"Yeah, you see, after one cut, I forgot how to move."

"Haha, if I had known that spirit stones were so easy to obtain, I would have seen more of these things happen to me in the future."

"Yeah yeah!"

……

While the two were talking, the fifth brother's knife was less than one meter away from Lin Fei's nose, but at this moment, Lin Fei disappeared as if he had disappeared in the mission hall, leaving only a black shadow that slowly dissipated on the spot.

With the experience from last time, Fifth Senior Brother was not too panicked. What he didn't expect was that Lin Fei's figure seemed to disappear a little faster than last time.

He immediately retracted the knife. He guessed that Lin Fei must have come behind him again. After retracting the knife, the blade immediately chopped backwards.

Fifth Senior Brother's martial art is called the Mountain-Splitting and Rolling Golden Sword. The sword technique is characterized by heavy and powerful moves, with grand movements and no emphasis on change, but only on strength, using force to break the law, and it corresponds to the martial art of the Mountain-Splitting Palm that he practices, both of which are powerful martial arts.

In the outer sect, it is with this rare powerful technique and swordsmanship that the fifth senior brother can overcome all obstacles and wherever the sword goes, ghosts cry and wolves howl.

Unfortunately, this kind of martial arts of his had no advantage at all against Lin Fei. Lin Fei's cleverness made it impossible for him to use all his strength. At the moment when the fifth senior brother drew his sword back, there was no trace of Lin Fei.

"Not good!" Fifth Senior Brother thought to himself, and quickly dodged to the left, but it was too late. The tip of Lin Fei's knife had already cut along Fifth Senior Brother's back. If Fifth Senior Brother hadn't blocked it with his knife from behind at the last moment, Fifth Senior Brother would have been cut in half.

A cold sweat broke out on Fifth Brother's body, as if he had been through the gates of hell.
