Chapter 128: Killing Zhou Feng
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“This, this, this…”
“He escaped? He actually escaped?”
“Hurry up and set up the great formation! We can’t let this person escape!”
“…”
After being stunned for a few seconds, the remaining Penta-Poison disciples shouted at the top of their lungs.
What was this? He had just randomly killed people here at Penta-Poison Peak for no reason.
Everyone thought that Zhou Feng was a madman who had gone mad, but suddenly, Zhou Feng stopped and escaped.
This clearly didn’t look like a madman.
Then why did this person do this?
Killing people so casually not only didn’t do him any good, but he definitely wouldn’t be able to escape the sect’s punishment in the end.
Zhou Feng’s actions already counted as betraying the sect.
“Quickly, quickly!”
“That person actually took the initiative to escape! This means that he can’t hold on any longer!”
“…”
The remaining Tri-Gu disciples were thrown into chaos.
Some people only remembered the sect’s grand formation at this time. As long as the sect’s grand formation was raised, Zhou Feng would definitely not be able to escape.
Some people speculated that Zhou Feng was probably exhausted and was on his last legs.
If they could capture Zhou Feng alive, it would be a great merit.
Everyone had their own thoughts, but one thing was certain.
Today’s incident was probably the worst disciple-betrayal incident since the Tri-Gu Sect was established.
…
After Zhou Feng entered the forest, he relied on his passive Nature Affinity. He was like a fish entering the sea and a tiger entering the forest. He did not meet any obstruction and used the dense forest to hide.
He did not go too deep. Instead, he found a hidden location and prepared to go into seclusion for a period.
Putting everything else aside, Zhou Feng planned to break through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm directly.
After becoming a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator and beginning to condense the embryonic form of his soul, he planned to get rid of the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body.
Actually, what he had done previously was to get rid of the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body.
As long as this seal was not removed, it would be a threat to his life.
Only by getting rid of this Demon-Devouring Seal would he have the confidence to betray the Tri-Gu Sect.
‘I have to break through properly this time! The previous two breakthroughs were too rushed!’
Zhou Feng sat cross-legged on the ground and planned to break through slowly this time.
The previous two breakthroughs had been in the midst of battle, so he did not have the time to consolidate his power.
Logically speaking, this would leave behind quite a few hidden dangers. Thus, he planned to break through this time slowly.
He did not care about anything else.
At present, Zhou Feng was wholeheartedly focused on breaking through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.
Meanwhile, he had caused great waves, and the sect was restless.
If one were to use four words to describe what Zhou Feng had done…
Then these three words were… “Piercing through the heavens!”
1
That’s right! It was to pierce through the heavens! A madman had directly killed almost all the disciples on Penta-Poison Peak!
Everyone in the Gu Refinement Cave, including the Meat Gu, was gone as well.
After a simple calculation… more than 10 Soul Altar disciples and countless disciples below the Qi Condensation realm had died.
They had not ever suffered such losses while fighting against the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghosts Sect.
All the Tri-Gu disciples now knew the identity and origin of Zhou Feng.
After learning about Zhou Feng and his feats, many people cried out exaggeratedly.
Zhou Feng had only spent less than half a year from the official start of cultivation to the Soul Altar realm.
Even if he cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, such a speed of advancement was too abnormal.
Monster! This was definitely a monster!
Why would such a monster betray the sect? Even if such a monster did not have a backer behind him, many factions should be willing to rope him in. Why would he take revenge on the sect like this?

Following that, some people leaked confidential information, and the news began to spread within the inner sect.
The main conjecture was that some elite disciples had suppressed zhou Feng. In the end, he had no choice but to fight to the death.
And the source of this news was the sect’s blessed land!
Gong Jiu had never thought that Zhou Feng would betray the sect and create such a big incident.
Most importantly, Gong Jiu had previously used a lot of evidence to confirm that Zhou Feng had betrayed the sect.
As such, many people misinterpreted this as Gong Jiu forcing and bullying Zhou Feng.
Such a monster! He had actually betrayed the sect because of Gong Jiu.
This caused the sect to lose a prodigy and indirectly led to the death of many inner disciples.
The sect would investigate everything after suffering such losses. In the end, Gong Jiu would even be made the scapegoat.

“Impossible! How dare he… How dare he do this!?”
1
Gong Jiu’s face was flushed, and he looked like he was gnashing his teeth.
Gong Jiu had been under the impression he didn’t need to make a move. He would only need to move a finger, and Zhou Feng would be toyed with.
Looking at it now, he was simply a clown.
To be honest, Gong Jiu did not expect Zhou Feng to be so ruthless. Even if he had to die, he would drag him down with him.
At present, his competitors were making a big fuss about this matter.
In reality, however, Zhou Feng did not know that Gong Jiu had deliberately targeted him after leaving the blessed land.
To Zhou Feng, leaving the blessed land and attacking Penta-Poison Peak was part of his plan to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting, increase his soul power, and then escape from the Tri-Gu Sect.
But now, everyone believed that Zhou Feng had made a move on Penta-Poison Peak and the Gu Refinement Cave out of despair.
It was all because of Gong Jiu’s evil move that a genius cultivator was forced into a dead end.
There were even a lot of people who sympathized with Zhou Feng.
Zhou Feng probably never imagined that many people would sympathize with him after slaughtering so many disciples. Some people even thought that Zhou Feng’s talent did not bloom earlier because of his background.
This was really magical.
“Kill him! I have to kill Zhou Feng before the sect catches him!”
Gong Jiu knew very well that a dead person was of no value to the sect.
As long as he killed Zhou Feng before the sect caught him, then everything could be reversed.
The choice between a dead person and a candidate like Gong Jiu for the Sect Leader position was self-evident to the higher-ups. After all, no one would argue over a dead person, especially in a sect like the Tri-Gu Sect.
“I can only use the Heaven’s Secret Mirror!”
Gong Jiu took out a mirror.
If he wanted to kill Zhou Feng before the sect caught him, he had to find Zhou Feng before the sect did.
And to do this, Gong Jiu felt that there was no other way except to rely on the Heaven’s Secret Mirror.
This was a one-time use spiritual weapon!
Now it was going to be wasted like this!
At that moment, Gong Jiu’s heart felt as if a knife had cut it, and his heart kept bleeding.
