Chapter 169- The spirit transformation layer

Chapter 169

Long Feng merely smiled at that. Truthfully, he hadn't known how laughable his idea of distracting the yin soldier with just his meagre strength was untill the yin soldier almost killed him with just a portion of his strength. It was like a mantis trying to stall a chariot. That was naturally unrealistic. The difference between them was something Long Feng couldn't make up for, even if he burned up his entire life source and cultivation.

Though, it couldn't be denied that his plan was almost flawless and it would have succeeded if he was facing a weaker yin soldier.

Sighing lightly, he put that thought aside.
"Where are we?" His mind had mostly calmed down and he was now able to think properly. He realized that the ghost energy which was virtually everywhere in the yin ghosts forest was actually nowhere to be seen.

A wild thought emerged in his mind.
Could they have left the Yin ghosts forest?
He immediately shook his head, rejecting that thought. It just didn't seem so simple to leave this place, even with a master like old Gu with them.

"Don't worry, we are in a relatively safe cave. I sealed off the ghost energy of the area and concealed it properly." Old Gu obviously couldn't guess what was on Long Feng's mind as he replied.

"Oh!" Long Feng nodded. They were obviously still in the depths of the forest.
"How long was I unconscious for?" He asked curiously. Based on his calculations, it shouldn't be more than three days.

"Two days." Old Gu replied, then his expression became solemn.
"I've been scouting around while you were unconscious, and I felt that the situation in the forest is about to change. It is very possible that the masters of the four regions have reached the center of the forest because all the yin soldiers have all been heading towards the center."
Normally, he wouldn't do something like scouting with his strength. But he was feeling bored with nothing to do, and moreover, it wouldn't hurt to gather some information about the general situation here.

"The seniors of the four regions have arrived?" Long Feng asked in surprise. As he saw old Gu nod his head, he felt excitement bubbling in his heart.
At last, the masters of the four dynasties have arrived! This was the best news he had heard in a long time. He couldn't wait to leave this goddamned forest. In fact, everyone who was in still alive in this forest would feel the same way, after all, it definitely wasn't a warm experience at all to live in this place.

"My guess is that they have already began to confront the yin generals and the yin monarchs. Therefore, we must rush towards the forest center quickly before the masters retreat out of the forest. If that happens, then we can only sit still and wait for our deaths." Old Gu continued with a solemn tone.

Long Feng understood the gravity of the situation as he nodded.
"I should be able to move and I won't have any problems if I don't rashly try to circulate my inner energy" he examined himself as he spoke. The truth was that even moving would prove to be challenging to the current him, but at least he should be able to endure.

Old Gu also nodded. "We can't waste more time. You can rest for two more hours before we set out. We are still quite a distance from the center and we will need a day or two to arrive." Of course, these two hours were also for him to prepare himself for any unexpected situation and also to give the others enough time to recover properly to their peak states.

"Thank you, old Gu" Long Feng nodded gratefully. He really couldn't imagine what would become of him and the other three had old Gu not interfered. At the very least, he and Yan jian would have their life sources drained while Li Yue'er and Hua Liuli would face a fate worse than death.

Old Gu smiled faintly as he walked out of the cave.

"Hu!" Long Feng breathed out as he calmed down.

"Brother Long Feng, you should get some rest. It seems like the road ahead is still rough" Yan jian laughed bitterly. With his strength, he would probably be among the earliest ones to lose their lives if things became dangerous.
