Spirit Through the Heavens

Jin Sha and Lu Feng had reached the finish line together, and they had taken the same route, so Niu Ben had reason to believe that they had always been together.    

    

But now, Jin Sha had four Communication Stone, and Lu Feng only had one. This made Niu Ben feel strange.    

    

Through Lu Feng's treatment, Niu Ben found that whether it was the strength of his body or the Spiritual Energy, they were far stronger than ordinary Early Period of Spirit Gathering Stage Expert warriors. Therefore, it was impossible for him to only get one Communication Stone.    

    

"There must be something strange about this!" Niu Ben said in a deep voice.    

    

He had to investigate this matter thoroughly. After all, Lu Feng's results directly affected his status in the sect.    

    

If he was just an ordinary person, it would already be considered not bad if he could enter the sect. However, for someone like Lu Feng, only after having a certain status would his development in the sect become even greater.    

    

If Lu Feng was really a peerless genius, then the better his development was, the better it would be for the entire sect.    

    

Just like that, after Niu Ben secretly inquired about the situation, he found out that the person who gathered the Communication Stone in the square was an outer circle disciple of the Skysword Sect.    

    

The reason Lu Feng was injured by Hua Mo seemed to have something to do with him.    

    

As the competition ended in a few days, Niu Ben went to find Lu Tianyi who was still recovering without saying anything.    

    

Lu Tianyi was injured by Hua Mo, but he didn't have anyone to help him heal. Therefore, his injuries were slightly heavier than Lu Feng's.    

    

"Elder Niu!"    

    

When Lu Tianyi opened the door and saw Niu Ben standing in front of him, he was startled.    

    

Niu Ben had a serious and scary face to begin with, but now that he had a serious face, it was even more frightening.    

    

"Lu Tianyi, right? I want to find you to understand the situation!" Niu Ben said with an expressionless face.    

    

"Alright... Understand the situation?" Lu Tianyi was stunned for a moment. Obviously, he did not understand what the other party meant.    

    

"You can hide it from me, but I hope you can hide it from me. Otherwise, if I find out that you are lying, don't blame me for being impolite!" Niu Ben said in a deep voice.    

    

As he spoke, a powerful aura faintly appeared.    

    

With Niu Ben's cultivation base, even if he only revealed a little bit of Qi, it would be enough to make Lu Tianyi feel better.    

    

Therefore, when he was suppressed by this faint Qi, his facial expression instantly turned ugly.    

    

Of course, Lu Tianyi was a disciple of Skysword Sect. Although he was just an outer circle disciple, Niu Ben wouldn't kill him for no reason.    

    

"Elder Niu, what do you want to ask me?" Lu Tianyi took a deep breath to withstand the pressure and asked.    

    

"Let me ask you, what's the matter between you and Lu Feng?" Niu Ben asked.    

    

He didn't directly ask about the Communication Stone, but rather asked about their relationship.    

    

"Lu Feng?"    

    

Lu Tianyi frowned. Why did this elder of Skyfire Sect ask Lu Feng? Could it be that he wanted to get to know Lu Feng through Lu Tianyi?    

    

"Elder Niu, Lu Feng and I came from the Lu Family in the Storm City of Great Qin Dynasty..." Lu Tianyi began to explain to Niu Ben bit by bit.    

    

Of course, when he told the truth, he also exaggerated it. Therefore, Lu Feng became a hypocrite with a bad character in his mouth, a true villain.    

    

"Elder Niu, this is what happened. So when he saw me, he wanted to kill me to silence me. Luckily Elder Hua appeared in time, otherwise, I would have been killed by him with a single strike!" Lu Tianyi said in a deep voice.    

    

"Is that really the case?"    

    

Hearing Lu Tianyi's words, Niu Ben raised his eyebrows slightly. Although what he said sounded very true, he had a feeling that there was something wrong with it.    

    

"Elder Niu, how could I dare lie to you? What I said is the truth. I was almost killed by Lu Feng back then. Luckily, I was lucky enough to escape with my life." Lu Tianyi said.    

    

"Alright, I understand!" Niu Ben nodded slightly.    

    

He did not question Lu Tianyi's words. Instead, he said something and left.    

    

Lu Tianyi didn't know why Niu Ben asked him these questions, but he was the one who saved Lu Feng. Perhaps he wanted to recruit Lu Feng into the Skyfire Sect.    

    

But now that he had stirred up such a mess, he was afraid that the other party wouldn't have such thoughts. After all, once a person with a bad character entered the sect, it would be an invisible danger.    

    

After Niu Ben left Lu Tianyi's room, he went to find Lu Feng again and found out about the situation from him.    

    

"En?"    

    

When he heard another version from Lu Feng, Niu Ben nodded silently in his heart.    

    

Although the two versions were different, Niu Ben already knew what to do.    

    

Instead of believing Lu Tianyi's version, Niu Ben felt that what Lu Feng said was more true. Of course, it was hard to tell which version was real and which one was fake.    

    

Of course, if he wanted to know who was lying, Niu Ben naturally had his ways.    

    

Although he didn't know who was lying, he was certain that Lu Feng's Communication Stone should be related to Lu Tianyi. This was the main purpose of his investigation.    

    

...    

    

Three days later, there was only one more day left until the deadline of the competition. In other words, those who reached the end of the competition after that day would be eliminated.    

    

"Huo Wu, where are you?"    

    

Lu Feng stood in the square and looked around, because he did not know which side Huo Wu and the others would come from.    

    

After three days of rest, Lu Feng was basically fine now. But at this time, he was not happy at all because Huo Wu and the others did not reach the finish line.    

    

Jin Sha was also by Lu Feng's side. Although there were a few other people in the Liu-li Dynasty who had successfully reached the finish line, she didn't have the intention to meet up with those people.    

    

"Lu Feng, don't worry. I believe that they will be blessed by the heavens!" Jin Sha comforted him.    

    

Of course, Lu Feng knew what Jin Sha meant when she comforted him. How could she not worry him?    

    

Huo Wu and the other three had quite a deep relationship with Lu Feng. In addition to the danger they faced along the way, Lu Feng would not be able to see them. He would definitely not be able to let go of them.    

    

"Lu Feng, look over there!"    

    

After another two hours, Jin Sha's voice sounded.    

    

Jin Sha had seen Huo Wu and the others a few times, so when she saw two similar figures, she quickly looked at Lu Feng in another direction and called out.    

    

Hearing Jin Sha's words, Lu Feng hurriedly turned around, and at this time, four somewhat embarrassed figures appeared in his line of sight.    

    

Two of these four figures caused Lu Feng to involuntarily be stunned on the spot. Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.    

    

"Lu Feng!"    

    

When Lu Feng looked at the two of them, he saw that their eyes were also fixed on Lu Feng. Immediately, they couldn't help but exclaim.    

    

"Huo Wu, Wang Kai!"    

    

Lu Feng took a deep breath and finally managed to get the two of them back.    

    

"Damn, we have finally reached the finish line. This competition is too terrifying!" When Wang Kai walked to the square, he collapsed onto the ground.    

    

"Lu Feng, I have safely sent Huo Wu to the finish line. How is it? I did not lie to you, did I?" After taking a few deep breaths, Wang Kai grinned at Lu Feng.    

    

Even if he had encountered many dangers and difficulties along the way, it was worth it to reach the finish line.    

    

"You are amazing!"    

    

Lu Feng smiled when he saw how happy Wang Kai was.    

    

"Alright, you guys go and have a good rest first. We will talk more after you have a good rest!" Lu Feng said.    

    

Wang Kai and Huo Wu looked fine, but their breath was weak. Clearly, they had suffered some injuries and were tired.    

    

"Alright. By the way, Lu Feng, where are Lin Xuan and Ji Bing? Are they not back yet? " Wang Kai stood up from the ground and asked in a low voice.    

    

"Not yet."    

    

Lu Feng sighed helplessly.    

    

Although Lin Xuan and the others had the most people behind them, having more people did not mean that they were safe. In the face of absolute danger, numbers did not work.    

    

"You guys go and rest first. If they come back, I will inform you!" Lu Feng said.    

    

"Oh, got it!"    

    

Wang Kai's eyes were slightly dull. This journey was not easy, so he knew very well how dangerous the journey was.    

    

If they did not come back, it was very likely that they would not be able to survive.    

    

Although Wang Kai and Lin Xuan would argue from time to time, because of this, their relationship was the best among the five of them. Therefore, Wang Kai's nose was a little sour at this moment, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.    

    

Seeing Wang Kai like this, Lu Feng didn't say anything. After that, Huo Wu and Wang Kai left the square to rest.    

    

Just like this, as time passed by, Lu Feng and Jin Sha, who were standing on the square, would see one or two figures coming back from time to time.    

    

But these people weren't the ones they had to wait for. When they didn't see one or two figures, the expression on Lu Feng's face kept changing.    

    

In the blink of an eye, the sky began to darken. According to the rules of the competition, if the sky darkened, then the competition would be over. Those who did not come back in time would be eliminated.    

    

However, Lu Feng was still waiting in the square. Even if Lin Xuan and Ji Bing couldn't come back in time, he still hoped that the two of them could appear in front of him alive.    

    

"Ji Bing, hold on a little longer. We will reach the finish line very soon. Don't worry!"    

    

However, not far from the square, a figure carrying another figure was advancing with great difficulty.    

    

"Lin Xuan, there isn't much time left. Put me down. It's not easy for us to reach this place. I don't want you to lose the chance to enter the sect because of me!" The pale Ji Bing murmured.    

    

"What are you talking about? If I leave you halfway, do you think Lu Feng and the others will let me go? Besides, am I the kind of person who leaves his companions behind and doesn't care about them? " Lin Xuan said in a deep voice.    

    

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked forward. Soon, they were about to reach the finish line.    

    

Perhaps because he saw hope, Lin Xuan's footsteps became faster and faster, even though his current situation was very bad, as if he could fall at any time.    

    

However, he had gone through a lot of hardships to reach this place. How could Lin Xuan give up? Therefore, he gritted his teeth, and the remaining Spiritual Energy in his body exploded. His speed of advancement instantly increased by several times.
