Chapter 1173: Chapter 1173: Banter

Several dozen breaths later, in the primordial forest, sounds of clothing tearing through the air began to resonate, accompanied by faint trails of Essence Energy dispersing.

Hidden within the forest, thousands of Green Bamboo Stronghold disciples, under the leadership of high-ranking members like Gu Li from Green Bamboo Stronghold, were stealthily maneuvering through the air toward Swiftwind Valley, a hundred miles away under the cover of night.

Most of the Sects on Tiansheng Continent would spend significant manpower and resources to build multi-layered defense networks around their Sects, to protect their safety and interests from intrusion. However, Swiftwind Valley was too lazy to do so, as every disciple of the Valley believed that on Tiansheng Continent, they were the strongest entity. If any Sect dared to provoke them, it would be akin to seeking their own demise.

If Swiftwind Valley were compared to a tiger or a wolf, then in the eyes of its disciples, other Sects would be nothing but lambs. And which lamb would dare to attack a tiger or a wolf?

Therefore, one could imagine the shock that would be felt by the disciples of Swiftwind Valley when thousands of elite disciples from Green Bamboo Stronghold suddenly descended upon them.

Moreover, Green Bamboo Stronghold was no longer a lamb. With the guidance of Fang Bai over the past few months, every disciple from top to bottom among the tens of thousands in the Sect had greatly improved their cultivation, significantly enhancing the overall power of the Sect.

These thousands of elite disciples who had been coached by Fang Bai represented the beginning of a nightmare for the disciples of Swiftwind Valley.

Feng Peilan saw Gu Li ignoring her threats, and sensing the streams of Essence Energy hastening away, with their target being Swiftwind Valley, she couldn’t help feeling anxious.

Feng Peilan knew that since Green Bamboo Stronghold had the audacity to attack Swiftwind Valley, they must have made sufficient preparations in advance. If she couldn’t arrive at Swiftwind Valley before them to warn her fellow disciples, the Valley might suffer a great loss.

Feng Peilan had been confident that by joining forces with Swiftwind Valley, they could easily eliminate Green Bamboo Stronghold and Falcon Mountain. But now, her confidence had vanished completely.

The youngster before her was not weaker than herself, and Gu Li, the Stronghold Chief who had just left, was also a formidable opponent to the Valley Master Feng Lingtian. The strength of these two men far exceeded Feng Peilan’s expectations.

Therefore, Feng Peilan really couldn’t predict the outcome of a battle between Green Bamboo Stronghold and Swiftwind Valley.

"Kill!"

Feng Peilan’s eyes flashed coldly; her long ribbon danced, stirring up fierce gusts of wind, launching another wave of attacks at Fang Bai.

Feng Peilan planned to quickly finish off the youngster before her and then rush to Swiftwind Valley ahead of Gu Li and the other Green Bamboo Stronghold disciples to join forces with Swiftwind Valley and annihilate any invaders.

However, Fang Bai was as strong as she was; how could she kill him just because she wished to?

Like a ghostly apparition, Fang Bai’s movements were unpredictable, his figure floating and elusive, no matter how violent Feng Peilan’s assault, she couldn’t even touch a corner of his clothes.

Feng Peilan was in a hurry to get to Swiftwind Valley and had no patience to become further entangled with Fang Bai, so she pushed him back with a palm strike and turned to dart towards Swiftwind Valley.

But just as her figure moved, Fang Bai followed close behind, launching an attack from her rear, forcing her to turn back and focus her attention on countering Fang Bai’s onslaught.

Yet, when she initiated a counterattack, Fang Bai once again employed a hit-and-run fighting technique, keeping her engaged.

In this manner, Feng Peilan was tightly entwined by Fang Bai, and for a while, she couldn’t find a way to escape.

Feng Peilan was furious, cursing loudly, trying to provoke Fang Bai into a head-on fight, but no matter how unpleasant her words, Fang Bai simply wouldn’t take the bait.

Feng Peilan had been at the Cosmic Level of perfection for decades and had touched upon the threshold of the Universe Level Realm. Among Cosmic Level Experts, she was among the elite.

Although Fang Bai possessed the power to challenge those beyond his level, it was one thing to take on opponents at the higher echelons of the Vast Level, but quite another to face a Cosmic Level Expert at the pinnacle of perfection. As a result, killing Feng Peilan in a short period of time was not an easy task.

Therefore, Fang Bai prepared to fight a war of attrition with Feng Peilan, to gradually deplete her True Yuan, and when her Essence Energy was nearly exhausted, he would then look for an opportunity to kill her.

Fang Bai had a special constitution that allowed him to absorb Essence Energy from the natural world at any time, meaning his True Yuan was practically inexhaustible, a never-ending flow that no martial artist could outlast.

Feng Peilan quickly realized this issue as well. As she tangled with Fang Bai, her own Essence Energy was rapidly diminishing, while Fang Bai still appeared full of vigor. This realization filled her with alarm, and she couldn’t help but think that this youngster was practically a monster.

Moments later, Feng Peilan increasingly felt overwhelmed. She looked up at the sky, guessing that Gu Li and the other disciples from Green Bamboo Stronghold should be arriving at Swiftwind Valley soon, and her anxiety mounted.

"This can’t go on; I will surely be defeated! I can no longer engage with this youngster in a drawn-out battle!"

Feng Peilan gritted her teeth, her fighting spirit suddenly soaring to its limit. She gathered all her Essence Energy, and with a fierce shake of the long ribbon in her hand, the air was immediately filled with its shadows.

Innumerable ribbon shadows danced in the air like spirit snakes, stirring up violent stormy winds that swept towards Fang Bai. The space within several yards around him seemed to tremble and warp, visible ripples appearing all around.

Instantly, Fang Bai felt an immense pressure surrounding him, making it almost impossible to breathe. Suddenly, his vision blurred as a length of ribbon shot through the air, coiling around his body.

"Die!"

Feng Peilan, seeing that her ribbon had ensnared Fang Bai, couldn’t contain her elation. She shook the ribbon in her hand fiercely, intending to yank Fang Bai into the air and then smash him mercilessly back to the ground.

Feng Peilan’s Life-Snatching Wind Ribbon was crafted from Space Wind Crystal fused with over a dozen special materials. Although it was supple, it was incredibly tough, and once it had wrapped around a martial artist, freeing oneself was harder than ascending to the heavens.

Now that the ribbon had bound Fang Bai, rendering him unable to exert his strength, Feng Peilan regarded his demise as a certainty.

However, what Feng Peilan had not anticipated was that no matter how hard she tried, Fang Bai stood firm as if rooted to the spot, completely immovable.

"Where did you get the Space Wind Crystal that was used to forge this ribbon? Tell me, and I’ll spare your corpse!"

Fang Bai suddenly spoke, his expression tinged with a mocking smile.

"You’re not capable enough to take my life yet!"

Feng Peilan replied with an angry laugh, gripping the ribbon tightly to prevent Fang Bai from breaking free, then she darted towards him like a bolt of lightning, condensing Wind Essence Qi in her left palm and slashing towards Fang Bai’s neck like a blade.

Her palm, infused with Wind Essence Qi, wielded a force far greater than that of an ordinary Spiritual Artifact. She thought if she could land the hit on Fang Bai, it would at least take half of his life.

"Scram!"

When Feng Peilan was still a yard away from Fang Bai, he suddenly bellowed, unleashing the Lion’s Roar Sonic Wave.

The sound wave surged like a tidal wave, shaking the heavens and the earth. The flora and fauna nestled amidst the hills within miles were startled into frantic flight by the roar, with the sound of tigers’ growls and monkeys’ cries echoing ceaselessly.

Feng Peilan’s head reeled briefly from the dizziness, her forward charge halted, and the Palm Blade strike meant for Fang Bai was disrupted without striking.

Before she could regain her senses, a streak of blood shimmered in Fang Bai’s hand, and a blood-red long knife had already appeared in his right hand.
