Boom!
In an instant, Yang Feilong and Xu Fang exchanged blows several times, but the result was that he was suppressed by the opponent. Not only had the opponent's cultivation reached the tenth level of the Xiantian realm, but he had also comprehended sword intent. Although it seemed to be only at the introductory level, coupled with his powerful sword techniques, Yang Feilong was completely suppressed despite having a superior sword intent!
"Die!" Xu Fang sneered. He was a cultivator ranked fifteenth on the Dragon-Phoenix List!
Most of the cultivators ranked high on the Dragon-Phoenix List had mastered intent.
Mastering Dao intent was also a form of potential, and a rather important one!
Although the opponent was powerful, Yang Feilong could escape without much trouble. However, he had no intention of doing so. Instead, he wanted to use the pressure brought by Xu Fang to break through to a higher realm, the third level of the Yin-Yang realm!
If his cultivation did not reach the third level of the Yin-Yang realm, even if he could deal with this Xu Fang, he would not be a match for Xiao Tengyun. Moreover, Xiao Tengyun was only seventh on the Dragon-Phoenix List, not first. Furthermore, being first on the Dragon-Phoenix List did not necessarily mean being invincible below the Golden Core realm!
Pfft!
Yang Feilong sustained several injuries. Of course, these injuries were not severe. With the integration of three paths into one, his physical recovery ability was several times stronger than before.
"Who is this guy? How can he be so strong? Even though I've completely suppressed him, he can still resolve my killing blows again and again!" Xu Fang was shocked.
"However, he can only resist one or two at his limit. If this continues, his injuries will accumulate, and he will surely die in the end!"
But at a certain moment, Xu Fang's expression suddenly changed!
Because Yang Feilong's aura suddenly surged.
"Not good! Did this guy use a forbidden technique? No, it looks like his cultivation is breaking through! How is this possible? Breaking through while fighting me?" Xu Fang found it unbelievable.
He didn't know that Yang Feilong was accustomed to breaking through in battle!
Why couldn't he break through at ordinary times and needed the pressure of a near-death crisis?
Because at such times, the body's functions were extremely active, and under the threat of death, one's potential, which was normally hidden, was easily unleashed!
"Leave!" Seeing that Yang Feilong's cultivation seemed to be breaking through, Xu Fang's heart chilled. Before the breakthrough, he could fight with him for so long. Now that he had broken through, his strength would greatly increase, and he was afraid he wouldn't be a match for him. Moreover, he had already discovered that his sword intent was being suppressed by the opponent, and the subtlety of the opponent's sword techniques was also superior to his. Being suppressed by him clearly meant his cultivation was inferior. Now that his cultivation had reached a higher level, if he stayed any longer, he would only face death!
Therefore, he was now scared!
However, with Yang Feilong's cultivation breaking through to the third level of the Yin-Yang realm, his combat power was far greater than before!
With a single sword strike, he sent Xu Fang, who had been fighting for a long time without being injured, flying. A huge wound appeared on his body, even exposing the white bones, indicating how severe Xu Fang's injuries were.
"Damn it, his strength increased so much with this breakthrough?" Xu Fang was increasingly astonished.
He didn't know that Yang Feilong's Yin-Yang power was cultivated through a fusion of self-created methods, possessing the combined effects of powerful Foundation Building power, Xiantian power, and Water and Fire elemental powers. Although it was not as significant as the increase in strength when a cultivator below the Golden Core realm broke through, it was much greater than the increase for cultivators in the Foundation Building or Xiantian realms!
"I am the young master of the Xu family, and my Xu family has several Nascent Soul..."
Before Xu Fang could finish speaking, Yang Feilong decapitated him. The powerful sword energy, imbued with sword intent, directly destroyed Xu Fang's soul.
"A Nascent Soul realm cultivator is guarding? So what?" A sneer appeared on Yang Feilong's lips. Trying to kill him, and threatening him when they couldn't, did they really think family threats were useful!
Of course, if he were in the outside world, Yang Feilong might have considered it, but here, killing the opponent would not cause him much concern!
Whoosh!
The next moment, Yang Feilong's figure flashed, dodging a killing intent that suddenly appeared in the air!
This was not someone sneak-attacking Yang Feilong, but the killing intent originating from the operating formation!
Yang Feilong collected the treasures left behind by Xu Fang after his death, then a flame flew out, completely burning Xu Fang to ashes.
Why kill and dispose of the body? Simply put, if others saw it, they might find some clues. If Xu Fang's acquaintances saw it, they would surely remember the wound marks left by him, and it might not be impossible to figure out it was him.
And if it was discovered, the Murong family could not protect him.
Because the Murong family's strength was limited and could not be his backing!
And he himself, even though he was close to being invincible below the Golden Core realm, was not truly invincible. Even if he were invincible, what of it? He was still no match for a Golden Core realm cultivator, let alone a family with a Nascent Soul realm cultivator!
"Continue to go deeper!" Yang Feilong took a deep breath and did not linger here for too long. After all, if someone from beyond a few formation units became interested and came, he would likely have to fight a tough battle!
Going deeper while recovering from previous injuries and consolidating his foundation was the proper way.
Another ten days passed in a flash!
During these ten days, Yang Feilong ventured deeper and deeper into the Five Elements Bagua Formation.
If the entire Five Elements Bagua Formation had a hundred levels, Yang Feilong had already reached over ninety levels, not far from passing!
Oh, no, it should be said that he was very close to the location of the Yin-Yang Tai Chi Eye!
And in these days, Yang Feilong encountered more and more powerful individuals. Some of them did not engage in combat with Yang Feilong, because although Yang Feilong was young, reaching this point was indirectly an indication of his extraordinary strength!
And what about Yang Feilong's family background?
They were also unaware!
What if he had some trump cards in his hand? Wouldn't that be all for naught?
Of course, during this process, Yang Feilong encountered people from the Xiao family several more times, and without exception, Yang Feilong killed them without mercy!
Since he had formed an irreconcilable feud with the Xiao family, why keep them alive? Moreover, as soon as Yang Feilong saw them, before he could even make a move, they were eager to kill him. Naturally, the result was only death!
The gap in strength between them was too great. Yang Feilong's current combat power had improved considerably from his strength after breaking through to the third level of the Yin-Yang realm more than ten days ago!
Combat, a fight to the death, was the fastest way to improve!
Of course, as he went deeper, the number of people he encountered decreased significantly, because the Five Elements Bagua Formation was too complex, and one wrong step could not only prevent him from going deeper but might even cause him to retreat!
