    Trantor: Noodletown Tranted Editor: Noodletown Tranted


    The over 300 remaining self-cultivators were very grateful when Qingfeng Li told them to leave first, stating that he would deal with the almighty ferocious beasts alone.


    "Qingfeng Li is so much kinder than Jianhuang Zhao and others." In the mind of the self-cultivators, his status had exceeded that of Jianhuang Zhao, the previously known ’strongest’ of the orthodox forces.


    Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...


    Thest 300 self-cultivators rushed into the tunnel and advanced toward the firstyer of Hell.


    Seeing this, the Taotie roared furiously. It opened its mouth and released a sucking force, trying to suck the self-cultivators out.


    "Fire River!" Qingfeng Li yelled and shed his sword forward abruptly, creating a river of mes.


    In the river there were tumbling magma and burning mes, painting the whole world a burning red.


    The heat in the fire river was as high as several thousand degrees and the fire burned everything around it into nothing. The river of fire surged forward to the ck vortex and burned it with ferocious force.


    Qingfeng Li was not as powerful as the Taotie, but the fire he released was the natural enemy of ferocious beasts and thus could block its attack.


    Thanks to Qingfeng, over 300 self-cultivators had sessfully entered the space tunnel and left the secondyer of Hell.


    At this time, the Qiqiong said, "Human, you were lying when you said that the Taotie wanted to kill me."


    Faced with Qiqiong’s usation, Qingfeng Li remained calm and didn’t speak.


    "Human, your silence means you are guilty. Since you lied to me, you can’t leave the secondyer of Hell. I will kill you and make you a human flesh skewer." Qiqiong looked at Qingfeng Li, ferocity shing in its eyes.


    Taotie said from the side, "Qiqiong, let’s kill this human. He is so despicable that he ruptured my ears and let so many delicious humans out."


    Just a moment ago, the Qiqiong and Taotie had engaged in a fierce fight with each other, but now, Qingfeng was theirmon enemy.


    Qingfeng Li sighed silently. With a look at theQiqiong and Taotie, he knew they would not fight each other again since they had realized that Qingfeng Li had tricked them.


    Qiqiong spread its wings and hacked them forward abruptly, creating a ck protective light shield that blocked the tunnel of the secondyer.


    Qingfeng Li’s expression changed. He had nned to escape from this tunnel, but Qiqiong acted faster than him and blocked his way out.


    Qingfeng Li turned abruptly, hacking his sword viciously onto the ck light shield, but the shield remained intact.


    "Human, I am one of the ten ancient almighty ferocious beasts and you can’t break my protective light shield," Qiqiong looked at Qingfeng Li and said indifferently.


    Frowning slightly, Qingfeng Li didn’t admit defeat. He channeled the Mortal Purgatory Body and the Conqueror’s Finger sessively, but to no avail.


    Qingfeng Li’s face turned grim, thinking that the Qiqiong’s defensive light shield was too powerful for him to break.


    The Qiqiongughed. It sneered at Qingfeng Li contemptuously, "Qingfeng, although you have greatbat abilities, you are inferior to me. Today I will cut your arms off first and then your legs."


    The Qiqiong was furious with Qingfeng Li. As a famous ancient ferocious beast, it preyed upon both humans and demons.


    The Qiqiong thought itself to be very smart, but Qingfeng had tricked it into fighting with the Taotie and thus wasted a lot of its time.


    It pped its wings abruptly and created a powerful ck wind de which cut open the air as it flew toward Qingfeng Li, arriving instantly.


    "ming Elephant." Qingfeng Li murmured,unching the third Fire Emperor Sword Technique which formed a huge elephant made of fire.


    Covered in a ze of glory, the fire elephant was several kilometers tall. Its huge foot stepped forward abruptly and crashed toward the ck wind de with unrivalled force.


    Rumble!


    With a huge sound, the whole space of the secondyer of Hell was lit up and a gigantic vortex ck hole appeared in the air.


    Large amounts of energy spread outward, leaving tiny cracks on the hard surface of Hell. which wasposed of meteorite rocks.


    Deng, deng, deng...


    Qingfeng Li retreated more than a dozen steps and spat out a mouthful of blood. He was severely wounded.


    "Too powerful. The Qiqiong’s attack is too powerful." Qingfeng Li’s face turned dark with rage.


    He had used the third Fire Emperor Sword Technique, which could kill almost all other self-cultivators, but, it was useless against the Qiqiong’s wind de attack.


    The Taotie said from behind, "Qiqiong, don’t kill him so soon. Let me beat him up as well to vent my rage."


    The Taotie was also very angry with Qingfeng Li. It whipped its huge tail, which shattered the space it came across with explosive noises.


    Qingfeng channeled the Mortal Purgatory Body and his skin shined with a golden light. He tried to block the attack with the Mortal Purgatory Body but it was absolutely useless.


    The Taotie’s ck tail whipped viciously on Qingfeng and sent him flying. The armor he was wearing was also shattered instantly by the strike.


    It was the emperor-grade armor he had obtained after killing other Spirit Emperor Realm fighters, but now it was shattered into tiny pieces.


    However, thanks to the protection of the emperor-grade treasure armor and the tough physique refined by Mortal Purgatory Body technique, the damage to Qingfeng Li’s body was reduced to the lowest point.


    Despite these protections, a deep cut was still left on his skin, exposing the flesh underneath. Even his bones were fractured, to the point where they could break anytime.


    Qingfeng Li’s face turned white and blood flowed from his mouth.


    He knew he was no match for the Taotie or Qiqiong, and he must escape from this ce. Otherwise he would die.


    "Senior Fire Dragon, the tunnel to the secondyer of Hell was blocked by the Qiqiong’s defensive light veil. How can I leave this ce?" Qingfeng Li asked the soul of Fire Dragon in his mind telepathically.


    After a moment’s consideration, the soul of the Fire Dragon answered, "It is the only exit of Hell. You must break the blockade."


    Qingfeng Li shook his head, saying, "I tried all my attacks, but nothing worked."
