The Villain's Counterattack

In the higher world, fate is difficult to understand.

Duan Lang knew clearly that there were many things and people he needed in Lingyun Cave, but he just couldn't find them.

Before, due to his lack of strength and fear of Tianxia Hui's dominance, he could not improve his strength freely. In addition, his young body could not keep up, so he could only carefully avoid the Fire Kirin and explore slowly.

Now that he is strong enough in the Broken Realm, he is no longer a weakling, and is even stronger than Xiongba. He is not that afraid of the Fire Kirin. Although he does not take the initiative to provoke it, he no longer avoids it and explores the Lingyun Cave with confidence and boldness.

But he tried hard for two whole months, and not only did he not find the Fire Kirin, but even the Fire Kirin Sword, the Snow Drinking Knife, the Top Ten Martial Arts Mural, the Xuanyuan Sword, Duan Shuai, and Nie Renwang were nowhere to be found.

"Oh, God, why are you so unkind to me? At least give me a few Blood Bodhis." Duan Lang sighed to the sky in Lingyun Cave. The thick stack of maps in his hand was the result of his two months of hard work, but they had little practical effect.

After venting, he turned and came to a new passage. The front was wide and open, and a burning feeling hit him in the face. Then he saw a half-dead vine and dozens of fiery red fruits on it.

Duan Lang's mouth twitched wildly. He looked left, right, up and down, but there was no one and no beast (fire unicorn).

"Is this a winning prize?" Duan Lang could confirm that this thing was the Blood Bodhi. Although it was a little less, the quality was definitely not high, but the Blood Bodhi was the Blood Bodhi, a genuine treasure from heaven and earth irrigated with Qilin blood.

After receiving the Blood Bodhi, Duan Lang was not in a hurry to use it to improve his skills. He was not yet eighteen years old at this time and was still an underage child. His martial arts skills were rarely rivaled in the whole world, and it was enough for now.

He still has plenty of time.

At present, the greatest help that the Blood Bodhi brings to him is healing his wounds and comprehending the power of the Qilin blood contained therein.

The blood of mythical beasts in the Fengyun world is a truly magical thing. Xiao Sanxiao, who obtained the blood of a black tortoise, gained a lifespan of four thousand years, a mysterious existence. Xu Fu, who obtained the blood of a phoenix, gained a lifespan of two thousand years, proclaimed himself Emperor Shi Tian, ​​founded the Tianmen Sect, and manipulated the entire martial arts world at will.

If we were to cite the mythical beast that has had the greatest impact on the martial arts world, it would undoubtedly be the Qilin. The Duan family's ancestor battled a Qilin demon, severing a piece of its scales and using it to forge the Fire Scale Sword, which he then created, establishing the Eclipse Sword Technique and bringing the Duan family immense fame. Nie Ying, the ancestor of the Nie family, also battled a Qilin demon, but accidentally drank Qilin's blood and remained undead. This drastically altered his own bloodline, forcing him to create the Ice Heart Art and even imprison himself in the Soaring Cloud Cave. However, this Crazy Blood lineage has since produced countless talented and powerful individuals within the Nie family, with Nie Feng carrying the Crazy Blood lineage to new heights.

There are many others like Yu Yue with Qilin Arm. Duan Lang suspects that the Turbid World Demon Pool where the First Evil Emperor is located is also formed by the evil energy attracted by Qilin blood.

The four great mythical beasts are the dragon, phoenix, black tortoise, and unicorn. The black tortoise gave birth to Xiao Sanxiao and was the first mythical beast to contribute its essence and blood. The phoenix was hunted by the Qin army and failed to give birth to the First Emperor, so its essence and blood were seized by the traitor Xu Fu. The unicorn, due to its demonic nature, has given birth to many people, but it has many hidden dangers, which is why it has been able to survive.

The most powerful dragon was slaughtered by the seven warriors led by Xu Fu, which led to the creation of a group of super masters including Duan Lang and Feng Yun.

Duan Lang does not think that he is weaker than others. In fact, because of hundreds of years of accumulation in multiple worlds before, he has absolute confidence that he can surpass his peers, including Feng Yun!

Maybe it was because his luck had run out, but Duan Lang found nothing for the next half day. Not to mention other treasures, even other blood bodhisattvas and the fire unicorns closely related to the blood bodhisattvas did not show up.

"Could it be that I opened it in the wrong way?" Duan Lang carefully recalled the vague plot. It seemed that many plots in Lingyun Cave, except for the alien bandits stealing the dragon veins which was premeditated, all others seemed to happen by coincidence.

"Is it true that even if you plant flowers with care, they don't bloom, but if you plant willows by accident, they grow into a shade? Or maybe..." Duan Lang looked up. The rocks blocked his view and he couldn't see the sky, but Duan Lang always felt that it was God who was making things difficult for him.

"Oh, Heaven! I, Duan Lang, lost my mother at a young age and was separated from my father when I was eight. The son of the illustrious Nanlin Sword Master, became a menial servant in the Tianxia Guild, suffering from constant bullying. To escape this predicament, I even risked giving up my skills and selling out my inherited martial arts." Duan Lang complained bitterly, finally praying to the heavens, "If Heaven truly has mercy and compassion, please bless Duan Lang to find his father safely."

After finishing his prayer, Duan Lang simply closed his eyes, put away the map, turned around in a circle, relaxed his mind and didn't let himself remember everything around him. Then he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it casually, then walked in the direction indicated by the stone.

Then...

Duan Lang got lost tragically!

It took Duan Lang three full days to get out of Lingyun Cave, but naturally he got nothing.

"Sure enough, Master Tian is also unreliable." Duan Lang sighed helplessly, and suddenly said coldly: "Come out, your hiding skills are really poor, even if I want to pretend that I don't know it is a bit difficult."

"What? You don't think I'm trying to trick you, do you?" Duan Lang glanced at everyone around him, then shook his head slightly. "Didn't Xiongba send you here just to take my head off? If you're so timid, I'm afraid you won't succeed. After all..."

"Duan used his real talent and knowledge to defeat Qin Shuang in the Sanfen Training Ground, fought Xiongba, and broke through Fengyun's obstruction to leave the Tianxia Association. If you want to kill me, I'm afraid you alone are not enough." Duan Lang's eyes cast towards the distance, but there was no figure there.

"Alas, what's the point of this?" Duan Lang sighed. "Since you've come here with murderous intent, don't blame me for being ruthless. After all, in this world, it's either you kill me or I kill you. As assassins working undercover for the Tianxiahui, you should have been mentally prepared to be killed."

As he spoke, Duan Lang's aura rose steadily, Grandmaster, Grandmaster, shattered!

With a muffled "bang", Duan Lang flew out, stomping on the air in mid-air, causing a series of explosions. He flew more than a hundred feet away in the air, rushed out of the cliff early, and quickly flew away dozens of feet above the rivers and lakes, and then dived into the water and disappeared without a trace.

Faint ripples appeared on the water surface. As the water slowly calmed down, several figures quietly appeared near the entrance of Lingyun Cave.

"Did that kid run away?"

"With this level of skill, this level of explosive power, and this level of scheming, can we really kill him?"

"As long as we have enough skills, we can definitely kill him. After all, we are in the dark and he is in the light, so there will always be a chance. If the light doesn't work, we can try the dark. I don't believe he can be immune to all poisons."

"Wait, he has already left Lingyun Cave and escaped without a trace. It seems that he is the one in the dark now, while we are the opposite..."

Several people looked at each other, then scattered and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Their lightness skills were also extraordinary, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.

On a distant hilltop, Duan Lang practiced his internal energy to dry his clothes, a faint smile forming on his lips. "The Twelve Devils of Tianchi? You guys aren't impressive enough these days. You've been out long enough, it's time to go back and take a look. Wait..."

Duan Lang calculated with his fingers and suddenly realized that an opportunity that he could intervene in was about to come. "The Sword Saint's sure-win experience? Even if I'm not a true sword fanatic, I still don't want to miss it. Huo Lin Sword, Huo Lin Sword, when will you come out and recognize your master?"
