Chapter 1989 Flying Knife Attack, Zheng Zu Flying Immortal
Surrounded by wolves and tigers, Mo Fan remained as steady as a rock.
This was because Grandpa Qian's divine sense spread out like a net, constantly monitoring the movements of both sides, giving him a complete understanding of the situation.
Riding the silver light of the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, Mo Fan once again circled back and, amidst the shocked and angry gazes of the Zheng family cultivators, charged headlong into the surging gray mist.
"Elder! That flying shuttle is back!"
One of the monks exclaimed in disbelief.
"I'm not blind!" the leading elder roared, his face ashen. "This boy's actions are a complete mockery of us!"
"Utterly arrogant! Today we will surely slay this demon and restore the eternal glory of the Zheng family!"
With a roar, the Zheng family cultivators once again activated their escape light, chasing after the silver shuttle like a swarm of bees, their killing intent soaring into the sky.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The Sky Shuttle hovered and circled at the edge of the gray mist. Mo Fan's wild laughter pierced through the void, carrying undisguised provocation: "You good grandsons of the Zheng family, your grandpa is right here. If you have the guts, come and capture me!"
The laughter was like a fire, completely igniting the anger of the Zheng family cultivators. They were all so angry that their teeth itched, and their attacks became even more rapid.
"call out--"
Just then, an extremely dazzling light streaked across the sky, moving faster than the limits of the naked eye. Almost the instant the sound rang out, it slammed into the Sky-Piercing Shuttle!
"boom!!"
A deafening roar erupted, the Sky Shuttle trembled violently, and the silver light flowing across its surface dimmed considerably, like a candle flame swept away by a gale.
"What's going on?" Mo Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he exclaimed in surprise.
"Master, it was a sneak attack by a throwing knife!" Little Silver's voice was slightly urgent, but still calm. "But don't worry, Master, the Sky Shuttle's defenses haven't been broken yet..."
"Boom boom boom boom...!!!"
Before he could finish speaking, a series of thunderous roars followed one after another. The entire Sky Shuttle seemed to be being smashed by an invisible giant hammer. The violent vibrations caused the Yuan Power in Mo Fan's body to surge and churn, flowing away at an alarming speed.
"Damn it! It's Zheng Feidao!" Mo Fan's expression suddenly turned serious.
His divine sense had already spread out, but he hadn't even caught a glimpse of the other's clothes before being attacked dozens of times.
Even with the formidable defense of the Sky Shuttle, such an invisible and intangible attack, impossible to defend against, was enough to make him wary.
Without the protection of this heaven-reaching spiritual treasure, his physical body would probably not have been able to withstand such a fierce attack.
Before the person even appears, the killing intent has already arrived!
Is this the terrifying strength of the Zheng family patriarch, a powerful expert at the early stage of the Great Sage realm?
Mo Fan took a deep breath, flipped his fingers to grasp the Xuanhuang gourd at his waist, pulled out the stopper, and took a big gulp.
The rich primordial liquid flowed into my limbs and bones like a sweet spring, quickly replenishing my depleted primordial energy.
Fortunately, the Sky-Piercing Shuttle is a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure, and as long as his internal energy has not been exhausted, he can still sustain it for a short time.
But Mo Fan knew that prolonged defense would inevitably lead to defeat. If the enemy continued to bombard them like this, even the Sky Shuttle would eventually be breached.
In the blink of an eye, Mo Fan immediately took over all control of the Sky-Piercing Shuttle. With a thought, the silver shuttle, like a streak of light, instantly plunged into the churning gray mist.
As soon as the shuttle entered the gray fog, a figure appeared out of thin air on the outer edge of the fog.
This man was dressed in a moon-white robe, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His face was so handsome that it was almost otherworldly. His long, black hair cascaded down to his shoulders, with only a strand of white hair at each temple, adding a touch of vicissitude and majesty.
He had one hand behind his back and the other in front of his chest, with a short ice crystal throwing knife hovering in his palm.
The flying knife was crystal clear, as if it had been carved from ten thousand years of mysterious ice. The blade was covered with complex and difficult-to-understand Dao patterns. Amidst the swirling light, seven-colored light flowed quietly, but it had no sacred aura whatsoever. Instead, it was surrounded by a chilling and sinister aura that made people's hearts tremble.
"Ancestor!!"
Upon seeing this, the Zheng family cultivators were all shaken and immediately stopped their escape, bowing respectfully to the figure with their voices full of awe.
"Ah."
The one referred to as the Ancestor is Zheng Feixian, one of the two Ancestors of the Zheng family. Known as "Zheng Flying Dagger," his cultivation has reached the upper stage of the early Great Saint realm, and his strength is unfathomable!
"Ancestor, that kid surnamed Mo must have gotten some kind of lucky break. The speed of his flying shuttle is astonishing. Our attacks can't even touch him!" An elder of the Zheng family stepped forward and said with a wry smile.
"Ancient treasure?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Feixian's face showed a strange expression, and then she sneered, "That's not some ancient treasure. It's normal that you can't catch up with it."
"Huh?" The Zheng family elder was taken aback, his face full of confusion. "Not an ancient treasure? Then what exactly is this thing...?"
"This kid does have some luck."
Zheng Feixian offered no explanation, instead gazing into the depths of the gray mist. He spoke calmly, "You need not interfere in this matter. I will personally go and slay him, and take his treasure!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Feixian moved like a phantom and stepped into the endless gray fog.
Deep within the gray fog, Mo Fan did not go far, but instead quietly lingered in the mist, piloting the Sky-Piercing Shuttle.
He was waiting, waiting for an opportunity that would be enough to turn the tide.
"Your name is Mo Fan, right?"
Suddenly, a cold divine thought, like an invisible shackle, instantly locked Mo Fan and the Sky Shuttle in place. Zheng Feixian's voice, transmitted through the divine thought, resounded throughout the airspace where Mo Fan was located.
“My Zheng family has a history of ten thousand years and has stood firm in Qingwu Continent for a thousand years. No cultivator has ever dared to challenge the authority of my Zheng family like this. You will naturally be no exception!”
After a pause, Zheng Feixian's tone carried a hint of condescension: "However, I am kind-hearted. Seeing that you have already cultivated to the half-step Great Sage realm at such a young age, your talent is truly rare. It would be a great pity if you were to perish here."
Therefore, I have decided to spare your life.
Mo Fan sneered inwardly and immediately replied telepathically, "I wonder what exactly this 'way out of the world' you speak of, senior?"
"Your flying shuttle contains the power of space, so you must have obtained it from the Void Ruins, right?" Zheng Feixian asked instead of answering, his tone certain.
Mo Fan didn't reply, but just sneered inwardly.
He had already seen through the other party's intentions; they were simply after the Sky-Escape Shuttle.
He quietly asked himself, "Uncle Qian, didn't you say that the insect queen had caught up? Why hasn't she shown up yet?"
“I can sense abnormal spatial fluctuations; the insect queen is forcibly traversing space.”
Grandpa Qian's voice echoed in Mo Fan's mind, "She is probably not a spirit being. It is not easy for her to break through the spatial barrier to come here."
However… her aura is growing stronger; she should be arriving soon!
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan breathed a slight sigh of relief.
If we delay even a little longer, and the insect queen arrives, it will be Zheng Feixian's death day!
Seeing that there was no response from the Sky Shuttle, Zheng Feixian spoke again, his tone slightly coaxing: "I said I would give you a way out, and I will definitely keep my word."
First, present this flying shuttle in your hand;
Second, obediently let this ancestor plant a knife seed inside you.
"As long as you agree to these two points, from this day forward, you will be a retainer of the Zheng family from outside the clan, with a status equivalent to that of an elder of the Zheng family, and will enjoy endless resources."
"What a kind and benevolent senior!"
Mo Fan immediately sneered, his tone full of undisguised sarcasm, "Clearly they covet my Sky-Piercing Shuttle, yet they speak so grandly, it's utterly laughable!"
If he didn't need Zheng Feixian to restrain the approaching Insect Queen and wasn't already confident in capturing this Great Saint Realm expert, he would have already activated the Void World to release the Spirit-Burning Gold-Devouring Insects and give the opponent a lesson he would never forget!
Faced with Mo Fan's mockery, Zheng Feixian did not get angry. Instead, she smiled faintly and said, "You are a smart person. You should understand that even if this flying shuttle is a heaven-reaching treasure, it cannot protect you."
Even the strongest half-step Great Sage is nothing more than an ant before a true Great Sage.
