In the dead of night, everyone was asleep.

Li Chengfeng quietly made his way through the tunnel, heading straight for Zhang Wei's bedroom.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he could clearly see the scene inside the stone wall.

Zhang Wei's cave was particularly tidy. In the main hall, there were various foods, including beef, and jars of fine wine.

Zhang Wei was lying on the bed, not sleeping, but reading a book titled "Fleeting Splendor," which seemed to be a martial arts manual. A soft sword was coiled around his waist, and he often practiced swordsmanship inside the cave.

After observing him for some time, Li Chengfeng had also discovered the unique aspects of his swordsmanship: speed. It was difficult to catch its trajectory with the naked eye, and his footwork was also strange.

Li Chengfeng was shocked. For a secular martial arts technique to be practiced to this extent was truly a unique skill.

This made him even more cautious. A martial arts master at the Innate stage had a connection between their body and the surrounding environment, seeing in all directions and hearing from all sides. The moment he broke through the stone slab, it would definitely create a disturbance.

Fortunately, Li Chengfeng had his divine sense and could anticipate the opponent's advantages in advance.

Zhang Wei sat on the stone bed, looking at the secret manual in his hand, sometimes frowning, sometimes relaxing, and sometimes gesturing in the air with his fingers.

While he was frowning.

Li Chengfeng suddenly erupted, his entire body shrouded in a dense aura of death. His fingers turned into sharp claws, and his skin became the color of tree bark, rough and uneven.

He crashed forward, and with the stone wall being less than half a meter thick, it shattered with a "boom," sending rocks flying.

Zhang Wei woke up with a start, never dreaming that a hole would appear in the stone wall.

Li Chengfeng flicked his fingers, releasing three Rain Summoning Techniques. Three drops of Yin-Yang Rain fell towards Zhang Wei, controlled by his divine sense to block his path from above, below, and in front.

Zhang Wei roared, and with a "shua" sound, drew the soft sword from his waist, twirling it into a sword flower to protect himself from all sides.

"Bang, bang, bang."

The three raindrops struck the sword, and the immense explosive force sent the sword flying.

No matter how powerful his martial arts were, how could he compare to magic, especially magic that combined different forces? It not only had impact but also injected death energy into his body.

Zhang Wei spat out a mouthful of blood.

Li Chengfeng's sharp claws went straight for his chest, fast, accurate, and ruthless.

In a moment of life and death, Zhang Wei had no choice but to summon his Innate True Qi and throw a punch, fierce and domineering. With a "bang," Li Chengfeng felt a great force coming at him and was immediately blown away.

Zhang Wei was not having an easy time either. His entire palm was torn and bloody, revealing the bone.

He roared and was about to rush out, thinking that as long as he called his subordinates, he could kill this monster.

Li Chengfeng now looked completely different. Even if he couldn't kill Zhang Wei, he could retreat and transform back into his ordinary appearance, which would help him evade the situation for a while.

He had already found a way out for himself.

Zhang Wei was injured and trying to escape.

He absolutely couldn't let him leave the bedroom. Li Chengfeng didn't know if there were any weapons or mechanisms hidden elsewhere.

He made a hand seal and cast the Rain Summoning Technique again, this time on a larger scale. A cloud gathered in the air, filled with rolling death energy.

With a "hua" sound, it poured down.

Zhang Wei screamed miserably. The clothes all over his body were corroded, and his face and body were covered in pits and wounds, with blood seeping out.

This delay allowed Li Chengfeng to rush behind him, tearing a large piece of flesh from his back with his claws, causing Zhang Wei to roll on the ground in pain.

True to his reputation as a martial arts grandmaster who had entered the Innate stage, although injured, he was still ferocious. He suddenly flicked his finger, and the Fleeting Splendor swordsmanship technique shot out with a "sou" sound.

Li Chengfeng couldn't dodge in time, and it struck his shoulder with a "pu." Fortunately, his skin was thick and tough, and although he was dizzy with pain, it only left a white mark.

This gave Zhang Wei an opportunity. He rolled on the ground, reached for his clothes, took out a hand crossbow, and pulled the trigger at Li Chengfeng. Three sharp crossbow bolts shot through the air.

Li Chengfeng didn't dare to be careless and rolled on the ground as well. The three crossbow bolts grazed his body, leaving two cuts in his clothes, and his skin bristled.

Li Chengfeng suddenly threw a dagger, which pierced Zhang Wei's left rib with a "pu" sound.

Zhang Wei let out a miserable howl. He was covered in wounds, and with the excessive blood loss, even if he had entered the Innate stage, he was exhausted after fighting for so long.

Li Chengfeng seized the opportunity and continuously poured Rain Summoning Technique imbued with death energy all over him. Zhang Wei's whole body was riddled with holes, and his eyes were blinded.

Zhang Wei never dreamed that he would end up like this.

Li Chengfeng was constantly seeking combat experience, and he had almost lost his life twice. The first time was with the opponent's crossbow bolts, and the second was due to his lack of preparation and not being fast enough. He shouldn't have used the Yin-Yang Raindrops to attack the opponent first.

He should have used the large-area death energy raindrops first, covering the opponent's entire body with pits and wounds, and then slowly grind the opponent to death from a distance.

He didn't expect that his powerful Yin-Yang Raindrops wouldn't kill the opponent, but rather the acid rain would cripple him.

Large-area attacks were impossible to dodge.

Li Chengfeng changed his thinking again. If every drop was a Yin-Yang Raindrop, even if the explosion wasn't very powerful, the density would be terrifying. While the opponent was struggling, throwing a giant Yin-Yang Raindrop at them would be the best way to attack and kill.

Sure enough, it was useless to have ideas without practice. Fortunately, Zhang Wei was completely worn out and had no fight left in him. He lay motionless on the ground, having lost too much blood.

Li Chengfeng was shocked again, wondering if he had become a bit foolish. He suddenly rushed forward and used the "Drain the Source" technique on him, this time absorbing the opponent's blood energy.

Zhang Wei had already lost too much blood, and being drained of another tenth completely finished him off. This was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Zhang Wei twitched incessantly, his breath as weak as a thread.

"Who exactly are you? Why are you killing me?"

"If you want to live, you still have a chance. You just need to answer my question."

"What question?"

"Seven-Day Gut-Severing Powder, is there an antidote?"

"Hahaha, you've been poisoned too. We can die together. I served Tian Ku loyally. I need his antidote to survive, but I won't tell you anything. I'll go to the underworld and wait for you. You killed me and disrupted Tian Ku's plan. His return will be your death."

Li Chengfeng's face was extremely gloomy. He didn't want to waste any more time, fearing that delays would lead to complications. The other ten hadn't entered the Innate stage, but their strength was also very strong. He had to kill them all before they could react.

Then he would be the one in charge of this valley. He walked over and slit Zhang Wei's throat with a dagger.

Then he searched everywhere, finding a box of gold and silver, several secret manuals, a long sword, and a jade bottle containing a year's worth of Seven-Day Gut-Severing Powder.

With these medicines, Li Chengfeng could live for two more years. Killing the ten masters would allow him to live for ten years. With these ten years, he could find a way to detoxify himself. This was also the reason he gambled everything on killing the ten of them.

He rested for a while, took a Qi-replenishing pill to restore his spiritual energy, and then threw Zhang Wei into a corner of the cave. He used an Explosive Rain Summoning Technique to bury him with falling rocks.

He put the gold, silver, secret manuals, and long sword into his storage bag and returned to his own cave.

He opened the door, holding the long sword, and disappeared into the night.

Two of the ten masters were guarding outside Zhang Wei's cave. He would kill them first.
