"I wonder what is Husband doing at the moment." Nan Jing Jing keeps staring on the Voice Transferring Ring.

"Oh well, It's for this kind of usage anyway, let's try to use it for now." Nan Jing Jing ready and inject some of her Essence Qi into the ring.

"Future Husband, how are you doing with the mission? Please be very careful along with your way." Nan Jing Jing leaves the message, and let it deliver to the receiver's ring.

"Why he does not yet reply me?" Nan Jing Jing stare at the ring after a few minutes, as she has nothing to do for the night.

But even herself have no idea about what actually happened within the Forest of West Jade.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Three years ago.

Nine Tyrants Empire.

Castle of the Ninth Tyrant, Illusion Demon Castle.

Owned and belonged to the Ninth Tyrant, Emperor Duane from the Nine Tyrants Empire.

But within, Emperor Duane no longer handling the Ninth State, the Illusionary Demon State.

Reasons?

It is because Emperor Duane that is known to many, is dead from Assassins sneak attack. The news regarding the emperor's death is yet to be announced, due to the next heir had not been decided yet.

Marvin Duane, the fourth son of the Emperor.

This child is known as the prodigy of the Duane Royal Family.

Firstly, he was known as the youngest within the whole Illusionary Demon State to ascend into Adept Tier in his 8th years old.

Secondly, he was known to be the one that managed to kill a Practitioner Tier Beast when his strength is still in the Human Adept Tier.

Thirdly, he was known to be the most ruthless among the family, with a record of accidentally killing his first three brothers during the fight to obtain the approval of being the heir of the throne belonged to their father in the family gathering.

But because of this matter, the announcement had been delayed, and Marvin Duane ceremony to become the heir of the throne is slowly forgotten.

But today, the Emperor is dead. And since the other younger siblings of the Duane Royal Family is not capable, or too young to fight for the throne, the other officials have no choice but to allow Marvin Duane to succeed his father's position, and quickly inform the other 8 tyrants state.

But for Marvin Duane, this is all expected.

"All these people are too stupid to realized the fact behind all these matters."

"First, it is the father. How stupid of him to postpone the fact I am the worthy successor to this throne? And he is also too weak to handle this state."

"This Illusionary Demon State contained a good source of Dark Essence, and is the most suitable to plant the Fiery Demonic Flower."

"Killing a Practitioner Tier Beast in my Practitioner Tier strength? How stupid. By using the refined Demon Fire Pill to blast the beast, even an Elder Tier Beast will be dead in its strike."

"As long father is dead, and this state has belonged to my ruling, it will be very fast before I ascend into the Grand Emperor position among the Nine Tyrants."

"This is all thanks to this Demon Fire Pill."

"I need to make sure this weapon kept in secret, and only use it as drastic measures."

And with this incident happened three years ago, the first result from the change of throne is what happened in the Scarlet Sun Kingdom.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, Long Feng wakes up earlier than normal, because of the uninvited guest into their surrounding perimeters.

Long Feng immediately prepare to fight, as he holds the Qian Kun Sword tightly.

The attacker make their move first!

Long Feng immediately pull up his sword and block the claw strike from the opponent.

After the failed attack, the attacker identity is revealed.

It is a total of 6 Feral Flame Wolf.

Flame Elemental attribute, the Feral Flame Wolf usually hunts in a pack, sniffing their target and start stalking them from far away. The wolf will only attack if they felt confident to win the opponent they are stalking. As the wolf stalks around their target, their number will keep growing bigger, until the confidence of killing the targets coming.

But these wolves make a very big mistake!

With Long Feng holding the Qian Kun Sword in hand, his battling power increased to at least a Heaven Refinement Tier cultivator!

Fighting a cultivator with Heaven Refinement strength, how a group of Earth Refinement Tier Beast could hope to win?

But when the Feral Flame Wolf makes a hit, they won't stop, until all of them are killed.

This is because they have the mindset of "If the opponent is weakened, this means others will be able to kill it soon" in each of them.

"Defensive Wu Sword Art!" Long Feng continuously use the sword art he learned from Han Feng Xian.

Very slowly, but one by one wolf is being killed continuously until none of them is left.

Long Feng is exhausted from the fights, but if it is not because he is assisted by Hong Yue, Long Feng would likely suffer some injuries in this fight.

Resting for a little while, Long Feng recover slightly and started to harvest the available products from the 6 killed Feral Flame Wolf.

Six portions of Beast Bloods.

Six skinned Flame Wolf Skins.

Six Spine Bones from the Feral Flame Wolves.

Six units of Flame Pills.

With all the item kept in the pouch, Long Feng starts his mission to cure the Trees surrounding him from getting poisoned by the Seven Snake Poison Disease.

Very quickly, Long Feng used up the 110 total Antidotes on the trees, and he continues with his explorations around the nearby area.

But the worst encounter finally happened.

Long Feng stepped into an open space within the outer forest, and the fateful meeting with Tempera has arrived.

"Human?" Tempera says in his mind.

"This is bad! Master, this is Tempera, the Lord of this outer forest!" Hong Yue quickly speaks with Long Feng through the mind, and charge into the front of Long Feng to protect him from any harm.

"What? One of the lords of this outer forest?" Long Feng is shocked for a moment, but he instantly withdraws the Qian Kun Sword and ready for a fight.

-----------------------------------------------------------

"Dark Earth Spike!" A part of the land targeted by Tempera started to become a green spiky field that could consume any life in its appearance.

Long Feng immediately leaped into another location, and slowly move as he gets closer to Tempera.

"Stupid human! Try this!" Tempera shouted angrily and cast another skill.

[Dark Earth Pillar!]

A ten inches wide pillar rise quickly into to the sky and releasing a great amount of Dark Essence Qi.

Long Feng who are nearby got caught by the Dark Essence.

POISONED!

Long Feng contact with the Dark Essence immediately results in a direct Dark poisoning, where his left side of arm started to get numb and unable to properly hold the scabbard of his Qian Kun Sword.

"This is not good. If this continues, either I will be totally poisoned, or killed and refined by this Ferocious Beast." Long Feng escape carefully, but with his left arm started to get worst, Long Feng movement also became less agile.

"Human! It's pointless to run!" Tempera chased Long Feng as he tried to escape farther from Tempera.

Long Feng condition started to get even worst, as Hong Yue is staring at his master fighting for his life.

A flashback regarding what happened ten minutes earlier keep appearing in its mind.

As Tempera charge, Hong Yue stands up high and prepare its claw to met with Tempera's attack.

But with the differences of power, Hong Yue just get a strong head attack, before it got swiped to destroy two thick trees as he stopped.

Just within a mere ten seconds, Tempera had an Earth Refinement Tier Great Stone Dragon Lizard kissed the ground.

Long Feng struggles more, as the Dark Poisoning started to move towards his heart.

"I need to come out with a solution, or I and Hong Yue will become the food for this Lord of the Forest." Long Feng continues with his struggle.

"Take this!" Long Feng prepared as Tempera get close to him.

[Defensive Wu Sword Art!]

Long Feng defended both claw attack and also parried away the jaw attack, as he moves in deeper into Tempera's position to create a chance of winning.

"You will suffer from this!" Long Feng speaks in his mind, as he stabbed his blade into Tempera's ribs.

Three of the pills from the Blade's 7 holes exploded within Tempera's body, and inflict him with a triple dosage of the Yellow Heart Poison Pill.

"Despicable human, try to poison me?" Tempera got angrier, as he explodes his internal Dark Essence Qi outwards, and had Long Feng, who still holds tightly on his Qian Kun Sword, got showered directly with all the Dark Essence Qi.

"I will see how you defend yourself against this amount of Dark Essence Poisoning!" Tempera howls as he swipes away Long Feng and his sword, away from his body.

Long Feng falls far from Tempera, like a falling arrow towards the ground. He started to get difficult to breathe, and his arteries started to pops out and seen clearly on his skin.

a mix of blue and red veins appears throughout Long Feng's body, especially on his hand, and also neck.

Long Feng struggles. His difficulty in breathing in the fresh air causes him to get suffocated with the carbon dioxide within his body.

his heart contracted, causing Long Feng to slowly vomiting blood from the side of his lips.

"Master!" Hong Yue struggles to crawl nearer to Long Feng.

As Long Feng started to lost hope, the Sky Elemental Qi within his body and the Soul Essence Pearl started to react with each other and created a layer of shield around Long Feng.

Sky Elemental Special properties!

Purifying Darkness and Impure Status from a target, and increase the lifespan of ingredients.

with the aid of this Sky Elemental Qi, the Dark Essence within his body quickly expelled.

Long Feng started to recover, and position himself in a meditating position, as he withdraws two Middle-Rank Calming Spirit Dew Pellet to consume.

this is because Long Feng sustained not too much of external injuries, but the disruption of Essence Qi within the body. by consuming some Calming Spirit Dew Pellet, the states of recovering would be easier through meditating for a short period of time.

And at the same time, what Long Feng doesn't have in hand, is exactly the time.

Tempera charged toward Long Feng, with its jaw opened wide.

Just on this moment, two very special incidents happened.

Tempera suddenly falls down to the ground, as the Yellow Heart Poison Pill is finally active in Tempera's body.

and also...

The Charm of Light is giving a very brilliant shine after it gotten showered with a large amount of Dark Essence Qi when Long Feng gave Tempera a stab.

"What is happening on the Charm of Light?" Long Feng says as the light started to shine brightly, covering their surrounding with blinding light.
