Unexpectedly, he had overthought it.

Utilizing the Golden Swan Skill, he boosted his speed to the limit and chased after Qiao Spring.

Swish

Swish swish swish

Several throwing knives appeared in Lin Zheyu's hand, and with a swift flick of his wrist, he shot them out in all directions.

Although his technique with hidden weapons was rather rough, combined with his powerful strength and keen senses, dealing with the members of the Wuding Gang who hadn't yet reached the Refining Internal Organ Realm posed no problem.

The knives flew with a whistling sound, accurately hitting five fleeing Wuding Gang members, and the Wind-chasing Grey Mink that had just been tracking his aura, penetrating directly into the back of their heads, killing them in one strike.

"Who on earth is this guy, and when did Songyi City have such a strong Qi Blood Realm expert!"

Qiao Spring was shocked beyond measure.

Even with the help of a military formation to enhance his strength to the Qi Blood Realm level.

But external force is just that, external. Against a true Qi Blood Realm martial artist, he didn't stand a chance.

Unless the formation was a hundred-man elite array, if the soldiers were strong enough, he might even dare to confront someone at the Bone Marrow Cultivation Realm.

But it wasn't.

He only had ten elite soldiers with him, and they weren't considered truly elite.

The special energy provided by these soldiers was only enough for him to barely break through to the Qi Blood Realm level.

He could bully martial artists at the Peak of Refining Internal Realm, but against a true Qi Blood Realm, they were simply not enough!

Swish——

Swish swish——

Qiao Spring continuously shot out poison darts, poison powder, and even poisonous insects behind him to disrupt Lin Zheyu's speed.

Though the power of the military formation was formidable, its speed was not fast.

If not for relying on poisonous methods to interfere, Lin Zheyu would have caught up to him long ago.

But after all, he was not Zhao Wude, and he didn't have much poison powder and hidden weapons, so he quickly ran out.

Unfortunately, Zhao Wude was killed in a sneak attack. Otherwise, with the military formation and Mr. Zhao's poisoning methods, even if they couldn't deal with this guy in front, they could have easily escaped.

"I have no enmity with you. Now that Mr. Xing is dead, why do you insist on pursuing me?" Qiao Spring said.

As he spoke, he casually tossed some poison powder.

Lin Zheyu frowned and dodged the red powder.

This guy's poisoning techniques were countless, with all kinds of poison darts, hidden weapons, and poison powders appearing endlessly.

He hadn't studied much about poisons.

To avoid being poisoned, Lin Zheyu dared not get too close.

"Then why bother running? Stop and let's talk," Lin Zheyu said aloud.

"Heh!"

Qiao Spring let out a light chuckle, scattering another red poison powder; this was his last batch.

The surrounding leaves turned yellow directly under the poison powder.

This kind of poison not only intoxicated by inhalation but also corroded upon contact.

Since he dared not get too close, Lin Zheyu reached into his belt, pulled out dozens of throwing knives, and hurled them at the ten soldiers forming the military formation.

Swish

Swish swish

The throwing knives were launched, shooting towards the ten soldiers forming the formation.

Clang

Clang clang

Qiao Spring moved quickly, his spear in hand forming shadowy images, blocking each of Lin Zheyu's incoming hidden weapons.

After blocking more than twenty throwing knives, his arm slightly numbed, and the tiger's mouth cracked.

"What powerful force!"

Qiao Spring's arm went numb.

The special energy within his body started to fade after continuous bursts, and he had an ominous feeling.

Qiao Spring looked at the soldiers, whose states were not right. Their faces began turning iron blue, and their eyes starting to wander; they were almost unable to hold on.

The military formation drained the soldiers' Essence, Qi, and Spirit. If used too long, it would exhaust their lifeforce, leading to depletion and death.

"This guy can't hold on for much longer."

Seeing the soldiers' faces worsening, Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

In his perception, the life aura of the ten soldiers was rapidly declining, and they would soon die of exhaustion.

"Keep running, why have you stopped?"

Lin Zheyu looked at the halted Qiao Spring and coldly smiled.

He didn't rush forward, wary of a sudden scatter of poison powder from the other side.

"Hmph!"

Qiao Spring's face was incredibly unpleasant, but he was no pushover.

Since he couldn't escape, he was prepared to fight to the death.

Even in death, he wouldn't let the opponent have it easy; he'd bite a piece off from him!

Viciousness filled Qiao Spring's heart, and his aura rapidly increased.

Essence, Qi, and Spirit quickly drained from the soldiers' bodies, turning their faces ghastly, causing them to scream tragically, froth at the mouth, and collapse powerless to the ground.

All their Essence, Qi, and Spirit were extracted, entering Qiao Spring's body.

"What a bizarre technique, this military formation is somewhat sinister!"

Lin Zheyu intently observed Qiao Spring, whose aura rapidly climbed, his gaze grew focused.

Not because the opponent was stronger, but because his technique was too bizarre, almost like an evil path.

One by one, the soldiers fell weakly to the ground, their breaths shallow, near death.

Meanwhile, Qiao Spring's aura reached its peak, purple lines covering his entire body, purple light filling his eyes.

His face became extremely fierce.

Draining the soldiers' Essence, Qi, and Spirit, without the military formation as a link, without soldiers to share the burden, he bore the killing aura tempered from ten soldiers' years of battle all at once.

The overwhelming killing aura affected his spirit, making him somewhat manic.

Seeing Qiao Spring's eyes filled with madness, veins bulging, muscles swelling, skin purple and filled with purple lines, Lin Zheyu remembered something Mr. Liang had once said.

'In this world, sometimes, people are not much kinder than demons.'

Though he hadn't truly seen demons, Lin Zheyu felt that this guy in front looked much like one.

"Go to hell!"

"I'll kill you, kill you!"

"Kill!"

Qiao Spring said with a fierce grin, his strong killing intent drowning out his reason, making him incomparably frenzied.
