The Demon Eye of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality

Chapter 15 The Generous and Prudent Model Worker Han

It's now!

At this moment, Senior Brother Ye's entire focus was on Wu Feng, making it the perfect opportunity for Mu Chunfeng to make his move.

He was preparing to mobilize all his divine sense and unleash his pupil technique to strike directly at Senior Brother Ye's sea of ​​consciousness when Senior Brother Ye suddenly turned sharply to look at the sky and shouted fiercely, "Who's there?! Come out!"

Not far away on the horizon, Han Li was speeding towards them in his newly acquired Divine Wind Boat. He had obviously sensed the fluctuations in spiritual energy here and was preparing to approach to investigate when he was unexpectedly discovered in advance by Senior Brother Ye, who had cultivated the "Great Evolution Technique".

Upon seeing that it was Han Li arriving, Wu Feng hurriedly shouted at the top of his lungs, "Han Li! Quickly return to the sect and report to the sect leader! This man surnamed Ye is an outsider spy, colluding with the demonic path, and harboring treacherous intentions!"

Before he finished speaking, Senior Brother Ye raised his hand again and released more than a dozen ranged puppets holding longbows. At the same time, several tiger-shaped puppets on the ground also changed direction, gathering dazzling spiritual energy balls in their mouths and blasting them wildly towards Han Li in the sky.

Han Li dodged left and right amidst the barrage of attacks in his Divine Wind Boat. Although Wu Feng told him to get away and report back immediately, he did not turn around and leave. Instead, he insisted on lowering the flying boat, wanting to get closer and save Wu Feng.

Seeing this, Mu Chunfeng stopped hiding and thought to himself: Now I can only rescue Wu Feng first and then make further plans.

He took out the Cloud Piercing Shuttle from his storage bag, and at the same time, he pinched a mid-level talisman—the Earth-Shaking Talisman—in his other hand. Then, he fully activated the magic power in his body and poured it all into the Cloud Piercing Shuttle.

"Whoosh—"

With a sharp whistling sound that tore through the air, the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle transformed into a streak of azure light and flew straight toward Wu Feng.

At this moment, Wu Feng, with Han Li drawing most of Ye Shixiong's attention and with the help of Han Li's fireball spells, finally managed to break free from the entanglement of the surrounding puppets. He was running desperately backward, and Han Li's Divine Wind Boat was getting lower and lower, getting closer and closer to him.

But Senior Brother Ye's eyes narrowed, and he had already decided to kill. The giant tiger puppet under his feet once again condensed an extremely powerful spiritual energy attack from its mouth. All the remaining puppets around him also turned their spears and aimed them at Wu Feng, who was fleeing. It looked like they were about to launch a world-destroying fatal blow.

At this critical moment.

A streak of light flew across the sky, instantly attracting Senior Brother Ye's attention. Close behind it was a talisman that shone with a dazzling earthy yellow light, landing precisely on the ground in front of Senior Brother Ye.

"This is... an Earth-Shaking Talisman?!"

Boom—!

A deafening roar exploded, and the moment the talisman completely sank into the earth, the ground within a radius of several miles suddenly trembled violently, and huge cracks, several meters long and several meters wide, instantly appeared in the hard rocky ground.

The giant tiger puppet beneath Senior Brother Ye swayed and lost its balance, causing the spiritual energy attack it was about to unleash to suddenly deflect and strike the mountain wall beside it.

His remaining puppets were either shaken violently, their spiritual energy disordered, or they lost their footing and fell into the bottomless crevice, instantly destroyed.

Taking advantage of the momentary chaos, Han Li finally controlled the Divine Wind Boat to fly to Wu Feng's side and pulled him onto the boat.

The two looked back and saw that it was Mu Chunfeng who had come to their rescue. They were overjoyed and immediately changed direction, flying at full speed towards the Huangfeng Valley sect.

Mu Chunfeng, piloting his Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, caught up with the two and shouted loudly beside them, "Follow me! I have a way to stop him!"

Without hesitation, Han Li immediately steered the Divine Wind Boat to the side and followed closely behind Mu Chunfeng.

Mu Chunfeng was heading to his cave dwelling nestled in the mountains, where he planned to use the Inverted Five Elements Formation to fend off Senior Brother Ye's pursuit.

Meanwhile, in the valley, Senior Brother Ye, enraged by Mu Chunfeng's sudden attack, not only lost his prize but also had nearly half of his puppets destroyed. He roared, "You two reckless brats, courting death!"

He controlled the giant tiger puppet, leading the remaining dozen or so puppets, and frantically chased after the direction the three had fled.

In no time at all, Mu Chunfeng and Han Li arrived one after the other outside Mu Chunfeng's cave.

He dared not delay for the slightest, immediately taking out the array plate of the Reversed Five Elements Array, rapidly forming hand seals with one hand, and shouting, "Rise!"

An oval-shaped array of light suddenly unfolded, steadily protecting the entire cave.

Almost the instant the light barrier took shape, Senior Brother Ye arrived at lightning speed, riding his giant tiger puppet. His eyes were bloodshot, and without a word, he controlled all the remaining puppets to launch a fierce and relentless attack on the array's light barrier.

Fortunately, the previous earth-shaking talisman had already destroyed half of his puppets. Even so, with the full force of all the remaining puppets, the array's light screen still trembled violently, and the spiritual light on its surface flickered. Fortunately, it finally withstood this fierce attack.

Seeing this, Mu Chunfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself: Sure enough, even the incomplete Reversed Five Elements Formation is not something that ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators can easily break through.

Han Li, standing nearby, stared at the familiar array light screen before him, slightly taken aback. He then turned to Mu Chunfeng and asked, "Senior Brother, was this array purchased from the Cloud Pavilion in the Tianxing Sect's market in the Yuanwu Kingdom?"

"Oh? Junior Brother Han also knows about this?"

Mu Chunfeng feigned surprise and spoke.

Han Li smiled and nodded in response: "It's quite a coincidence. My junior brother also went to that market a few days ago and happened to buy the same array, which is how I recognized it."

"I see."

Mu Chunfeng nodded upon hearing this, then said with a solemn expression, "However, this formation is ultimately incomplete, and we don't know how long it can hold out. If the formation is broken, the three of us will have no choice but to break through by force."

"Cough cough cough..."

A violent coughing fit rang out. Wu Feng leaned against the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, his face pale and his breath weak. He said, "If the formation is really broken later, you two don't care about me. Go straight out to the sect and find the sect leader. Tell him what happened. I'll stay behind to hold him off."

"No! We'll go together!" Han Li immediately and decisively replied.

Meanwhile, Mu Chunfeng was secretly pondering: According to the original timeline, Lei Wanhe should happen to be passing by this place. If Lei Wanhe didn't show up soon, then he would have no choice but to use his trump card to forcefully kill this Senior Brother Ye.

At this moment, outside the formation, Senior Brother Ye was still gritting his teeth and controlling all the puppets, frantically bombarding the formation's light screen, but he was becoming increasingly impatient.

This place is located on the edge of the Yellow Maple Valley sect's territory. Such a commotion would cause trouble if it attracted other cultivators from within the sect.

Time passed slowly, and just as Senior Brother Ye's patience was about to run out and Han Li was becoming increasingly nervous, a giant bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket suddenly struck down from the sky. Immediately afterward, several bolts of lightning fell in succession, like divine punishment, and slammed heavily onto the puppets that were frantically bombarding the formation.

"How dare you, a mere brat, act so arrogantly here!"

A loud and majestic voice, like a thunderclap, rolled over. An old man with white hair and beard, and an aura as deep as the ocean, stood with his hands behind his back in mid-air. He was Lei Wanhe, a Core Formation cultivator from Huangfeng Valley.

Upon seeing Lei Wanhe, Senior Brother Ye's face turned deathly pale. He was so frightened that he immediately turned around and tried to flee.

But Lei Wanhe simply raised his hand, and a sharp bolt of lightning instantly killed him. All the remaining puppets around him also lost control and collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Lei Wanhe slowly descended from mid-air, his body radiating a chilling aura of a Core Formation cultivator.

Seeing this, Mu Chunfeng quickly used a magic spell to dispel the Reversed Five Elements Formation, while Han Li helped the extremely weak Wu Feng. The three of them stepped forward together, bowed, and respectfully greeted Lei Wanhe.

Lei Wanhe stood there, his hair and beard all white, but his eyes were bright and piercing. He glanced at the three of them and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on here?"

Despite his injuries, Wu Feng stepped forward and recounted to Lei Wanhe in detail how he discovered that Senior Brother Ye was secretly colluding with Zhong Wu of the Spirit Beast Mountain, how he was being chased by the other party, and how Mu Chunfeng and Han Li came to his rescue.

After listening to Wu Feng's account, Lei Wanhe's expression became even more serious. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice, "This matter is of great importance and must not be publicized. I will also investigate this matter in secret."

The three of them quickly and respectfully replied in unison, "Yes, we will obey the elder's orders."

Then Lei Wanhe moved, his body flashing with lightning, and transformed into a streak of light, speeding away into the distance and disappearing into the horizon in an instant.

Wu Feng was already severely injured. At this moment, his mind relaxed and he could no longer hold on. He quickly sat down cross-legged and began to circulate his internal energy to regulate his breathing and heal his injuries.

Seeing that Lei Wanhe had completely gone far away, Mu Chunfeng's gaze involuntarily fell on the spot where Senior Brother Ye had died not far away, where the intact storage bag was lying quietly on the ground.

But as soon as he turned his head, he found that Han Li was also staring intently at the storage bag, and he couldn't help but think to himself: This kid has really sharp eyes.

However, Mu Chunfeng ignored Han Li's thoughts and walked directly to Senior Brother Ye's corpse. With a wave of his hand, he used his spiritual power to lift the storage bag and place it steadily in his hand.

He turned to Han Li, smiled, and asked, "Junior Brother Han, I'll accept this storage bag. You don't have any objections, do you?"

At this moment, Han Li was naturally very envious of this storage bag. What he wanted to know most was the method by which Senior Brother Ye could control so many puppets.

But since it was Mu Chunfeng who had saved him and Wu Feng, he was too embarrassed to ask for it. He could only scratch his head, put on a simple and honest smile, and awkwardly say, "Hehe, Senior Brother Mu did the most work just now, so this storage bag should naturally belong to Senior Brother. It is only right and proper."

Upon hearing this, Mu Chunfeng laughed heartily, casually put the storage bag into his pocket, and said no more.
