Ge Yunfei should be treating him with sincerity, but the three rogue cultivators probably had ulterior motives. Their journey was already fraught with difficulties, but they still had to bring along a burden that had just reached Foundation Establishment. Furthermore, they seemed to be very willing and happy. Xiao Lingyu definitely didn't believe that there wasn't a problem.
However, Xiao Lingyu wasn't very afraid. He had the large snake protecting him from the shadows. Furthermore, Ge Yunfei viewed him as his savior. If there really was an unforeseen event, he believed that with Ge Yunfei and the large snake, he would be safe.
"I won't hide it from Brother Xiao. These three people and I only have a mutually beneficial relationship. You are my savior, so they might not necessarily accept you. Thus, if we encounter any danger later on, you must be by my side." Ge Yunfei transmitted his voice to Xiao Lingyu to remind him.
Xiao Lingyu's expression didn't change. He only nodded and smiled inwardly.
Following that, everyone soared into the air and flew towards a certain location in the Desolate Ancient Forest on their magic treasures.
The large snake didn't fly into the air. Instead, it followed closely in the forest, maintaining its connection with Xiao Lingyu's mind.
Along the way, everyone was chatting and laughing. They appeared to be very close and united. However, the three rogue cultivators frequently transmitted their voice to each other, causing Xiao Lingyu to see them.
The three rogue cultivators constantly glanced at Xiao Lingyu with ill intentions, causing Xiao Lingyu to be very nervous. He could only constantly remind the large snake to follow closely and be prepared to attack at any time.
They weren't very far from their destination. After only two hours, everyone descended from the sky.
In front of them was a valley surrounded by four tall mountain peaks. There was no entrance, and the entire valley was shrouded in dense fog, making it difficult to see clearly.
The lower half of the four mountain peaks were tightly connected, while the upper half towered into the clouds. They looked like four gigantic swords that only revealed half of their bodies.
"We've finally arrived, but the fog here is even thicker than last time. I wonder if Brother Yunfei's Floating Cloud Hand will be able to disperse the fog?" The cultivator wearing a cloak said in a flat tone.
"This valley is too big. I can only disperse a part of it," Ge Yunfei said after pondering for a moment.
"Just a part of it is enough. As long as we can thin out the fog, it will be of great help to our next move," said the fat cultivator with the surname Ba with a nod.
"There is no time to lose. Let's rest up first before attacking," the cultivator in Daoist robes said.
Next, Ge Yunfei and the other three sat down cross-legged and meditated. Each of them held a shimmering spirit stone in their hands.
Xiao Lingyu also pretended to meditate, but he did not actually cultivate. His master had warned him that it was best for him to cultivate alone.
Two hours later, Ge Yunfei and the others woke up.
The cloaked cultivator patted his waist, and several red lights flew out, transforming into four triangular banners that fluttered in the wind.
The triangular banners weren't large at this time. The flagpole was about a foot long, and there were some strange runes engraved on it. On the banner cloth, there was an Azure Dragon, a White Tiger, a Vermillion Bird, and a Black Tortoise.
Ge Yunfei took the banner with the White Tiger. After the others flew into the sky, he said to Xiao Lingyu, "In a moment, the four of us will set up a formation. We might not be able to take care of you, so be careful. Generally, there won't be any demonic beasts or ferocious beasts coming here."
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, "Don't worry. You also have to be careful. "
Ge Yunfei patted Xiao Lingyu's shoulder. Just as he was about to participate in setting up the formation, he took out a golden token and gave it to Xiao Lingyu, saying, "This is a Golden Shield Treasure Talisman. If you encounter danger, you only need to pour a bit of true qi into it and it will automatically expand, blocking the danger for you."
Xiao Lingyu didn't stand on ceremony. After receiving the treasure talisman, he said, "Thank you. You should go quickly. They must be waiting anxiously."
Only then did Ge Yunfei feel relieved and went to stand on the top of a mountain.
Xiao Lingyu originally planned to leave without saying goodbye while these people were casting the spell, but now he changed his mind because he felt that Ge Yunfei was quite loyal and worthy of a deep friendship. Moreover, he was also very curious about what these people were doing here.
Looking up at the sky, Ge Yunfei and the other three were sitting cross-legged on the top of a mountain. The four banners were also rapidly expanding. The flagpoles were no less than a hundred feet tall, and the banners were also fluttering in the wind. The divine beasts depicted on the banners seemed to be about to come to life, looking very lively.
After a while, the four of them spat out a ball of blood essence and let it sink into the banners.
Then, Ge Yunfei stood up alone, his hands constantly moving in front of his chest. Waves of spiritual light quickly emerged between his fingers and intertwined, forming a group of magical seals.
"Floating Cloud Hand, dispel the clouds and see the sun!"
Following Ge Yunfei's earth-shattering roar, his hands suddenly pushed forward. Countless groups of seals slanted out at the same time, rapidly forming an incomparably huge handprint in the air.
What entered their eyes was a huge palm that was no less than a thousand feet in length. It flipped through the clouds and mist, stirring up layers of dense fog. It had the momentum of sweeping through the world and dispelling the clouds to see the sun.
Xiao Lingyu's blood boiled as he watched. The methods and magical powers of cultivators were really shocking and yearning.
In the past, he had only heard about it and didn't think it was too magical. But now that he saw it with his own eyes, it was definitely a different feeling.
Ge Yunfei didn't stop the movements of his hands. After another series of hand seals, he shouted again.
"Floating Cloud Hand, Clouds into the Nine Heavens!"
The seals from his hands all sank into the huge palm from before. The huge palm crazily rotated and slowly rose. It was actually wrapped in clouds and mist as it moved towards the sky, gradually forming a cloud vortex.
The vortex was like a tornado's wind column, and also like a huge dragon that was preparing to leap into the sky, constantly twisting its body. Xiao Lingyu was dumbfounded as he watched. The desire in his heart to become stronger became even stronger.
The dense fog in the valley disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and everything in the valley gradually became clear.
However, at this moment, a demonic beast that seemed to have been hiding in the dense fog all this time revealed itself.
This demonic beast's body was very large. Its body was covered with snow-white hair, and it had six thin transparent wings. It also had two long antennae and two large black eyes that almost occupied its entire head. In its mouth, there were two sharp fangs that were like swords.
It also had six slender legs, a round belly, and a tail that was like a javelin.
From Xiao Lingyu's point of view, this flying demon beast looked like a bee no matter how he looked at it. However, it was white, and the number of wings and slender legs, as well as its size, were far from an ordinary bee.
Ge Yunfei stopped casting and instead sat down cross-legged. Then, like the other three rogue cultivators, he began to silently chant an incantation. The banners around them began to rapidly expand again.
When the huge white bee saw the banners, it became very violent. It flapped its wings and rushed over.
Just as the huge white bee moved, each of the four banners shot out a spirit light. It actually connected the four mountains together, forming a rhombus-shaped encirclement.
Ge Yunfei didn't care about the huge white bee that was rushing towards him. Instead, he shot a spirit light into the banner beside him.
Suddenly, the banner's power surged and shot out a spirit light that was as thick as a tree towards the huge white bee.
In the sky above the valley, the wind and clouds suddenly surged. Xiao Lingyu could no longer see the situation over there.
He waited for a full four hours before the battle in the sky above the valley came to an end.
Ge Yunfei's clothes were tattered and there were many wounds on his body. Blood was constantly spurting out from his mouth. He flew down from the sky in such a sorry state. When he reached Xiao Lingyu's side, he said to Xiao Lingyu, "Run! Don't worry about me! "
After saying this, Ge Yunfei fainted again.
In the sky, three more streaks of light flew over. Xiao Lingyu could see that the three streaks of light were the three rogue cultivators.
Xiao Lingyu didn't understand the situation, so he wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, he used his mind to communicate with the serpent and prepared to make a move at any time.
The three rogue cultivators landed in front of Xiao Lingyu. They were also in a sorry state and had suffered heavy injuries.
"Have you all completed your mission?" Xiao Lingyu saw that Ge Yunfei had only fainted due to his heavy injuries and wasn't in any immediate danger. His heart calmed down, but he still cautiously asked the three rogue cultivators.
The fat cultivator surnamed Ba said, "Of course we completed it. Otherwise, how could we be standing here alive?"
The middle-aged cultivator wearing a daoist robe said with concern, "Brother Yunfei seems to have fainted. Let's quickly treat his injuries."
The cloaked cultivator didn't say anything. Instead, he quietly crossed his arms in front of his chest.
Xiao Lingyu waved his hand and said, "There's no need. I can treat his injuries."
"Oh? Could it be that Little Brother still has Origin Flesh Bone Grass? "The fat cultivator surnamed Ba curiously asked.
Xiao Lingyu calmly said, "I have other methods to treat his injuries."
Their mission had been completed, but Ge Yunfei had told him to escape before he fainted. It was clear that there was a big problem. At this moment, Xiao Lingyu absolutely couldn't trust these three rogue cultivators.
"Then I ask Little Brother Xiao to quickly treat Brother Yunfei. Once a cultivator is heavily injured, we can't delay." The daoist robed middle-aged cultivator urged.
Xiao Lingyu said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "Everyone's mission has been completed. You may leave Brother Yunfei to me."
"Brother Yunfei was injured while helping us. How can we leave him here alone? You and Brother Yunfei have only known each other for a short period of time. We don't dare to hand him over to you. Brother Xiao, please treat Brother Yunfei's injuries in front of us," the fat cultivator surnamed Ba said, not allowing Xiao Chen to refuse.
Xiao Lingyu muttered to himself for a moment before saying, "Alright then. Since everyone is worried, I will treat his injuries in front of everyone. There is still a lot of medicinal power left in my body from the Origin Flesh Bone Grass. If I send this medicinal power into Brother Yunfei's body, he will be able to recover. "
The three rogue cultivators nodded and indicated for Xiao Lingyu to begin. They didn't doubt Xiao Lingyu at all.
Xiao Lingyu didn't dawdle. He placed his hands on Ge Yunfei's back and slowly circulated his Primal Chaos Essence Qi.
At this moment, the three rogue cultivators suddenly stood in three different directions and surrounded Xiao Lingyu and Ge Yunfei in a triangle. Then, they simultaneously sent out a palm strike.
Suddenly, three incomparably powerful auras attacked. If nothing unexpected happened, with Xiao Lingyu's recent Foundation Establishment cultivation and Ge Yunfei's unconscious state, the two of them would definitely be killed by these three auras.
