Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Ambush on the Road

The Heavenly Nether King was quite satisfied and nodded his head.

Just moments before, he had released his aura to sense and confirm that the Netherworld King Mark he had implanted indeed existed within Lin Yi’s body.

The young man had not deceived him; he had indeed refined the Netherworld King Pill.

Otherwise, he would have struck immediately, killing Lin Yi on the spot.

"Go!"

"Remember the task I have entrusted to you!"

The Heavenly Nether King waved his hand.

"This disciple will not disappoint Master’s expectation."

After bowing with a fist clasped, Lin Yi turned and left the Dharma King Hall.

...

The entrance to the Dark Abyss was located at the Doomsday Volcano deep within the Blood God Sect, where the climate was scorching and the geography extremely complex. Without the strength above the True Man Realm, it would be impossible to reach this place.

Lin Yi’s figure continuously flickered through the Doomsday Volcano, moving towards the designated target location.

The vast volcanic region was filled with searing air currents, and many craters were still spewing flames, with thick smoke billowing.

It was extremely dangerous.

Yet, atop one of these mountains, there stood a figure, shadowy and unobtrusive.

This figure, stealthy in movement, focused on Lin Yi for a long while before suddenly leaping down from the peak like a vulture, swooping towards Lin Yi’s back!

At the same time, a crossbow appeared in his hand, firing three consecutive arrows at Lin Yi!

The speed of the three Crossbow Arrows was extremely fast, suddenly shooting from behind towards Lin Yi, who, being a common True Master, could not react in time.

Moreover, with three deadly arrows launched in succession...

Just as the arrows were about to hit Lin Yi’s body,

A shocking blood-colored light shield suddenly burst forth from him, wrapping around his body.

Two of the Crossbow Arrows were blocked by the blood-colored shield, but the third successfully tore through and struck Lin Yi right at the top of his back.

Joy surged in the eyes of the shadowy figure.

However, Lin Yi, who had been hit by the arrow, suddenly distorted and, to the visible eye, dissolved into nothingness!

"How is this possible?"

Shock flashed through the assassin’s eyes; his supposedly winning blow had missed?

"Not good!"

A feeling of dread rose within him, and the figure hastily retreated, only to find that Lin Yi had already appeared behind him.

"Blood Moon Devouring Sky."

A fierce Blood God Palm, the fifth strike, was unleashed; the palm manifested as a ghastly blood-red moon with terrifying waves of blood evil that hit the figure’s back.

Boom!

Caught off guard, the figure was struck by the palm and sent flying forward.

His body crashed into a rocky mountain, creating a large crater with the impact.

With a ’wah,’ the figure spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood and, just as he attempted to climb out of the crater, found a sharp sword already resting against his throat.

Any movement would tear open his throat.

"Who sent you?"

Lin Yi stared coldly at the figure in front of him. In his memory, he had not offended this person. This individual must have been instructed to ambush him here.

The figure spoke coldly, "Unexpectedly, your strength has already reached such a level. No wonder the Holy Son is so eager to get rid of you."

"Holy Son?"

Lin Yi’s eyebrows raised. "Are you saying, Xue Wuya sent you?"

"How does telling you benefit me anyway?"

The figure scoffed with a sneering laugh, looking utterly fearless, "I’m here to kill you on the orders of the Holy Son himself. If you dare to hurt a single hair on my head, the Holy Son will know immediately."

"Chen Feng, I advise you to let me go, or you’ll be openly declaring war against the Holy Son—and you can’t bear the consequences!"

The figure stopped pretending and openly laid out his cards to Lin Yi, making it clear he was a man of the Saint Heir, confident that Lin Yi wouldn’t dare to touch him for fear of falling out with the Saint Heir.

However, with a crisp "snap," Lin Yi didn’t say a second word and slapped his palm directly onto the top of the skull of the assassin, smashing the latter’s head to pieces.

The figure collapsed into a pool of blood, his face still showing an expression of disbelief.

He had never dreamt that even after he invoked the Saint Heir, Lin Yi would still dare to put him to death.

After killing the assassin with a single palm strike, Lin Yi searched the body, collecting the spoils of war.

At the same time, he also discovered the true identity of the assassin.

He was an elder of the Blood God Sect, named Duan Wuji.

Undoubtedly, he was one of Xue Wuya’s followers.

Lin Yi’s eyes instantly turned colder. "This Xue Wuya, his mind is so narrow. When have I ever offended this man, could it be because of the little demon girl?"

The "little demon girl" Lin Yi mentioned was naturally the Holy Daughter of the Blood God Sect, Shangguan Xinyan.

Besides this, he couldn’t think of any other reason why Xue Wuya would act against him.

"What a damn Saint Heir, once we enter the Dark Abyss, I’ll slaughter you first."

A cold light flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes, as he now harbored murderous intentions towards Xue Wuya.

He then kicked Duan Wuji’s body off the cliff.

The corpse fell into the fiery mountain and was quickly reduced to ash.

Having finished all this, Lin Yi turned around and continued deeper into the Doomsday Volcano.

...

At the end of the Doomsday Volcano.

The volcanic fire here had already died out, and the vicinity was cold due to its proximity to the Dark Abyss. Dark clouds obscured the sun, and bone-chilling winds howled through the mountains. It was a stark contrast to the searing heat of the Doomsday Volcano, like a realm of ice and fire.

The people of the Blood God Sect were stationed on a flat expanse of ground.

This time, for the trial in the Dark Abyss apart from the Saint Heir and the Holy Daughter, as well as the four Holy Generals, there was also a battalion of Blood God Guards.

About five hundred people in total.

In front of them was the bottomless Abyss.

However, at the entrance of the Dark Abyss, a blood-colored Barrier floated, completely sealing off the opening.

Just then, another bone-penetrating chill wind swept out from the depths of the Dark Abyss, blowing over the people of the Blood God Sect, making many shiver uncontrollably.

"We’ve already waited two hours for that brat, Chen Feng, why hasn’t he arrived yet?"

In the crowd, Evil Feng said impatiently.

"Maybe he had an accident on the way, fell into one of those lava pits by mistake, and is already dead without a burial place."

The corners of Xue Wuya’s mouth lifted in a cruel curve.

He had sent Duan Wuji to lie in ambush on the way to assassinate Lin Yi.

With Duan Wuji’s Ninth Level True Master cultivation, combined with his skill in stealth and concealment, assassinating Lin Yi should have posed no problem.

Hearing this, Shangguan Xinyan and Shenqing frowned secretly.

From his tone, had Xue Wuya already plotted against Lin Yi on the way?

"Haha, the Holy Son is worrying too much!"

Just then, from deep within the Doomsday Volcano, a clear laugh suddenly sounded, "Indeed, I encountered a bit of trouble on the way, but it posed no real threat to me."

Everyone immediately followed the voice, and saw a figure that had appeared before them with astonishing speed—it was Lin Yi.
