A ray of the mid-grade healing light was sufficient for Hou Jingfeng’s injuries to heal completely, allowing him to return to peak condition .
Mo Wen and Gong Zhangyan were both heavily injured and did not have the strength to fight anymore . Whatever happened next could only be decided by him .
Hou Jingfeng looked at Mo Wen and laughed madly and savagely . Only he knew how many treasures Mo Wen had . Once he killed Mo Wen, all those would belong to him: the Beast King’s treasure box, the profound level weapon, the Black Gold puppet would all be his .
Hou Jingfeng could not help but feel his heart speeding up . This was the first time he had ever felt so excited in his life . Not many could ever experience the feeling of almost being in reach of some formidable treasures .
There was a brilliant red glow and the mid-grade healing light encapsulated Hou Jingfeng’s body . In just mere moments, his complexion flushed and his breathing stabilized . The glow in his eyes grew brighter . The weak and pale state he was in from his serious injuries disappeared without a trace .
“Mo Wen, die . Everything that you have will become my personal possession . ” Hou Jingfeng pulled out a long sword and approached Mo Wen with a ferocious smile . He walked really slowly and deliberately, one foot in front after the other . He was not in a rush to kill Mo Wen . He wanted Mo Wen to feel the fear as he approached death bit by bit .
Anyway, in his eyes, Mo Wen was like the meat on the butcher’s slab, ready for him to kill .
At this moment, Hou Jingfeng wanted to play a game of cat and mouse . A genius like Mo Wen dying bit by bit at his hands was such a joyful thing .
Mo Wen looked at Hou Jingfeng coldly . His expression had been cold and distant right from the start . However, he was sighing deep down in his heart .
He did not have any mid-grade healing light . However, he had a top-grade healing light . It was just that it was too much of a waste to use the top-grade healing light right now .
However, it would indeed be difficult to kill Hou Jingfeng with the current state his body was in . Unless he used the seventh-grade talisman to kill Hou Jingfeng straightaway, he would have to use the top grade healing light . There was no other way .
Both the seventh-grade talisman and the top grade healing light were rare treasures . It was quite a pity to use them now .
Mo Wen was still wavering between whether to use the top-grade healing light or the seventh-grade talisman .
Just then, there was a flash of white light that approached them from afar . In just mere moments, a lithe white figure descended from the sky . Her clothes were pure white and she held a long sword . Who else could it be but Pei Fengwu?
Pei Fengwu had been blocked by a large crowd of seventh level monstrous beasts when they were retreating . As such, she had only just emerged from the ancient city . She had not expected to discover Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan attacking Mo Wen . “Hou Jingfeng, you are too much,” she said, clearly unimpressed .
“Pei Fengwu, you don’t have any business here . Don’t be nosy . ” Hou Jingfeng’s expression cooled . He did not expect someone to meddle in the matter halfway through . Why did Pei Fengwu have to appear at a time like this?
“What do you mean by being nosy? Hou Jingfeng, don’t forget, our common enemy in this space is the seven beast kings in the Fire Domain . If we do not defeat the seven beast kings, we will all die here . How can even contemplate killing other human warriors at a time like this?”
Pei Fengwu’s expression was cold . In this space, the threat of the seven beast kings hung over the heads of all the human warriors . If the human warriors began to turn on each other, they would not be able to work together to defeat the powerful foe . What difference would this be from committing suicide? It was impossible for everyone to leave this space alive .
“This is a personal vendetta between Mo Wen and I . I hope that you will not interfere in it . Furthermore, there are many human warriors . Mo Wen will not make a difference . Don’t stop me, or I will kill you as well . ” There was a flash of killing intent in Hou Jingfeng’s eyes . Pei Fengwu had bothered him multiple times . He could not take it any longer .
“Hou Jingfeng, since you have no sense of priority, then I have nothing else to say . Kill me? I want to see if you have the ability to . ” Pei Fengwu stopped in front of Mo Wen with no intention of backing away . No matter what, she would not allow Hou Jingfeng to kill Mo Wen .
“Since you are seeking death, then I will send both of you on your way . ” Hou Jingfeng was enraged . He used the Enlightened Buddha Sacred Flame . He still had a cultivation level at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm . Since Pei Fengwu was seeking death, then he would send her to hell .
However, just as he prepared himself and was about to attack, a ray of white light flashed across the sky .
Then, a voice spoke simultaneously in the minds of Mo Wen and the other three .
“I have detected that the beast king’s treasure had already been stolen and taken out of the abandoned city . Congratulations . You have completed this task and will get a reward from the Fighting Spirit Temple . ”
Then, four dim lights suddenly descended from the sky, turning into pillars of lights that shone on each of them .
Something miraculous happened the next moment .
Their inner Qis, physical power, mental power and other abilities all recovered at a terrifying speed .
Mo Wen discovered that the terrifying injuries inside his body were starting to dispel bit by bit as if they were ice and snow being shone upon by the sun . In mere moments, everyone’s injuries were all completely healed, both internal and external injuries as well as injuries to their soul . They had all completely recovered . Additionally, their inner Qi and mental states had all recovered to their peak .
The ray of white light was like the amalgamation of the recovery light and healing light . In mere moments, their conditions reached their peak state .
Furthermore, it was not just their inner Qi that had recovered . Their physical strength had recovered completely as well .
The recovery light could not recover one’s physical strength . Their physical strength would continue to be drained as they continued to fight . However, at their cultivation levels, their physical strength was naturally high . Regular warriors could not compare to their recovery abilities or their endurance levels . Warriors in the Golden Elixir realm could last for ten days and ten nights in a regular battle without any problems .
What Mo Wen had not expected was that the physical strength he had expended in the past few days had all been recovered as well .
“Congratulations, Mo Wen on completing the task . You have performed excellently in this task and managed to steal the beast king’s treasure . You will receive the biggest prize . ”
“Congratulations, Pei Fengwu on completing this task . You have helped your teammates many times in this task and performed well . You will receive a special prize for this task . ”
“Congratulations, Hou Jingfeng, on completing this task . However, your performance in the task was average . You will receive the ordinary prize in the task . ”
“Congratulations, Gong Zhangyan, on completing this task . However, your performance in the task was average . You will receive the ordinary prize in the task .
Mo Wen and the others could hear the voice inside their heads . The message of the Tower Spirit meant that they had completed their task .
“No! What’s happening . No…!”
Hou Jingfeng took a large step back . His eyes were filled with fear and he was in no mood to listen to what the tower spirit had to say . That was because he discovered that Mo Wen had recovered completely and was in his peak state . He no longer had any injuries .
The white pillar of light had restored everyone’s conditions to their peak state in just a blink of an eye . Indeed, Hou Jingfeng had returned to his peak condition too . However, he was not excited at all but only felt fear and flustered .
When a tiger ends up on the fields, it would be bullied by dogs . And when a dragon falls onto the shore, it would be teased by prawns .
He had dared to challenge Mo Wen when Mo Wen was seriously injured . But when Mo Wen was at his peak condition…
Mo Wen smiled and then secretly replaced the top-grade healing light that he had been holding in his hands back into the medicine spiritual ring . He had not expected something like this to happen at such a crucial moment . The tower spirit had announced their completion of the task at a time like this and had so kindly restored their health .
“Hou Jingfeng, weren’t you very arrogant? You wanted to kill me, right?” Mo Wen smiled lightly and started to approach Hou Jingfeng . His aura was thick, strong and endless . It was no different from a warrior at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm .
“How is this possible!” Hou Jingfeng could not help but scream hysterically because of the sudden and sharp turn of events . He screamed as he ran . He knew that he was no match for Mo Wen now .
What did treasure, or the beast king’s treasure box matter now? Compared to his life, they were all worthless .
If Mo Wen allowed Hou Jingfeng to run away now, then he would not be Mo Wen .
Clang!
There was a crisp sound . The Cries of Hades Bell started to shake gently . Hou Jingfeng froze where he stood . He vomited blood every time the bell shook .
Mo Wen did not even move . However, the Cries of Hades Bell continued to shake and Hou Jingfeng continued to vomit blood . His body started to dry up oddly as if his blood was being drawn out and he was drying up bit by bit .
In a short while, Hou Jingfeng’s body exploded into a cloud of blood .
Mo Wen had known what would happen . What was unexpected was that bits of blood-colored glimmer appeared from the mist of blood and gathered, rushing toward Mo Wen and enveloping him .
“You have killed your teammate . This is your first warning . You are now covered in blood and will doubly attract the attacks from illusionary beasts . There will also be a 10% deduction to your cultivation levels . If you kill your opponent again, 20 % of your cultivation will be deducted . ”
The tower spirit’s voice suddenly rang out . Mo Wen smiled bitterly . He had not expected that he would be punished for killing human warriors .
He was however fine with being covered in blood and attracting twice the number of illusionary beasts . He was even rather pleased with it . However, he was a little upset at having 10 % deducted from his cultivation levels .
Mo Wen could sense his inner Qi decreasing by a little . It was as if that portion of cultivation had disappeared without any trace .
He could perhaps enter the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm if he killed one or two other monstrous beasts at the pinnacle of the seventh level . His original cultivation levels should be high enough to allow him to do so .
However, he now needed to kill at least seven Lord Monstrous Beasts to advance in his cultivation once again .
Furthermore, he would suffer an even greater punishment if he killed a human warrior again . The rule that he could not kill his teammates was rather bothersome .
“Mo Wen, you killed Hou Jingfeng!”
Mo Wen had killed Hou Jingfeng in the blink of an eye . Hou Jingfeng had not even had the chance to defend himself .
Pei Fengwu regained her wits then and said somewhat worriedly, “You are too rash . Hou Jingfeng was the most talented disciple of the Ming Temple and he was being groomed as the future temple leader . You killing him could well mean starting an unresolvable feud with the Ming Temple .
