At the moment when the wind dragon pierced through the bodies of the two geniuses, the subordinates behind them all flickered. With the elimination of their masters, they all eventually turned into powder and drifted away with the wind.
With a click!
One of the Eagle King's wings was cut off by the wind blade, and a large amount of blood spurted out. Before it could scream, countless wind dragons completely neutralized its attack and rushed straight through it! The Eagle King struggled to stretch out his claws to grab something, but he failed in the end. With a click, his head drooped and turned into powder and dissipated...
Under the strongest attack of Lord Feng, the two geniuses who had gathered all their strength were eliminated at the same time. The Eagle King, the trump card of the Lookout, fell directly, and the Flying Eagle Corps suffered heavy casualties. It was difficult for them to organize an effective defense, let alone an attack...
Only Feng Shiming and Mu Liuling were left in the field...
No one could have guessed this situation beforehand...
"…Even the strongest soldier at level 12 is not good enough?"
"The attack of the three major forces was actually broken by a single blow and then collapsed. The strength displayed by Lord Feng at this moment is too..."
"I thought this would at least cause a lot of trouble for Lord Feng and force him to defend first, but I never thought..."
"Hmm... Take a closer look. Lord Feng doesn't seem to have any injuries at all. His cheeks are slightly pale... It seems that he has suffered some minor injuries?"
"Such an attack could only cause him minor injuries? Why fight?"
"… The battle for the Imperial Garden this time was beyond our expectations."
"Anyway, it's over..."
"Yeah, it's over."
Outside the field, everyone had the thought of "ending" in their mind, because at this moment, they really couldn't fight any further...
"Little girl, you are very brave, and your master is also very powerful, forcing me to use this trick..." Feng Shiming said lightly, his cheeks became paler, and a wind blade gathered in his palm, ready to cut off Mu Liuling's neck at any time...
“… Even if you can kill me and take the mechanism box, you haven’t won yet.” Facing such a strong enemy, Mu Liuling’s petite figure became increasingly frail, but his eyes were extremely determined, “Don’t forget… the young master is on his way back, and your shadow guards have also been killed or wounded. It’s still unknown who will win!”
Feng Shiming chuckled when he heard this: "Little girl, have you ever heard of the nightmare?"
After these words fell, Mu Liuling was suddenly choked, and then he saw a flash of light in Feng Shiming's hand, and a ball of pink mist appeared in his palm, which quickly swirled into the shape of a small snake, which was very strange...
"What... is this?"
The Bewildered Nightmare is a strange secret treasure that can be used on those below the Profound Realm to achieve a period of control. Although this is one of the secret treasures of the Imperial Garden, it has only ever been found in the main building. In addition, only one person has ever seen it in the struggle for the Imperial Garden, and no one has ever obtained it. It is an extremely rare treasure...
“Hehe…” Seeing Mu Liuling’s puzzled expression, Feng Shiming was unexpectedly generous in telling him the whole story in detail… When he finished speaking, everyone inside and outside the venue was shocked.
The Mo family actually planted an "insider" in the Imperial Garden
Yes, now that I think about it, wasn't the guy who was confronting Chu Tianxiao just now the "inside response"? It was just that at the beginning, due to the asymmetric information, it was difficult to connect the dots... Now that it has been pointed out, everyone understands it...
They were surprised at the Mo family's extraordinary means and forbearance, but they were even more surprised that Chu Tianxiao could actually break the situation!
"So that's how it is... Lord Feng in the Imperial Garden had been controlled - if the Mo family really had a thorough plan, it would be very likely that they could control this energy life - but as the insider was dealt with by Chu Tianxiao, his control naturally no longer existed, but the memory of that period of time somehow did not disappear, which allowed this energy life to completely know the truth! The details are hard to determine, but it may be because of this that some kind of abnormality occurred, which made him want to 'become an adult'. This is also... Lord Feng was like this back then. He seemed calm and indifferent, but in fact he was arrogant. If he knew that he was a 'fake person', he would naturally face the challenge and want to 'turn the fake into the real'..."
"Hmm... Coincidentally, before this, in order to allow this 'chess piece' to successfully pass through the secret room and go to the main building to get the almost impossible-to-get backup Mind-Blocking Nightmare, the 'undercover' continued to strengthen Feng Junhou. In addition, Feng Junhou himself performed well and got the best opportunities in the main building. Finally, he grew to a terrifying level that others could not resist at all..."
"Well, this approach will definitely have consequences, as evidenced by the brutality of Lord Feng just now..."
"... I understand now. No wonder he has such courage..."
"Could it be possible that... this energy life form can really 'rebel' successfully, refine the Emperor Garden, and shape itself into a human form? This... if he succeeds, won't there be two Feng Junhou?"
"That's still a secondary matter! If this were to come true, I'm afraid a disaster would happen..."
"Yes... Such events have been recorded many times in history books - some energy beings in secret realms may, by chance, have the thought of becoming a human being and then take action... Just like some natural treasures that cultivate themselves into spirits, or top treasures that develop intelligence, it's just like that, not surprising, and not difficult to deal with... But the current situation is very troublesome - although energy beings with special talents rarely have the thought of becoming a human being, once they cultivate into a human form, they will become difficult to control without exception..."
"Yes, according to experience, the more gifted they are, the harder it is to achieve a human form. After that, they will encounter many obstacles and often fall into a state of madness. With their terrible talents and mood swings, it is too easy for them to get into trouble..."
"...Some elders in the family occasionally mention the tragic incident that happened a hundred years ago... Is it going to happen again this time?"
"Report to the family immediately, something big is likely to happen this time!"
The reactions of the crowd outside the venue were mixed, but they all felt that this was a serious matter. Mu Liuling in the venue narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why are you telling me this?"
Feng Shiming said calmly: "You are the first real... person I have ever met, so... I have to let you die with understanding."
"I am about to become an adult, and what matters is what I follow my heart. Any thought that is not clear may lead to failure."
Mu Liuling took a deep breath and said, "So... you want to use the 'Nightmare of Confusion' to act on the mechanism box, so as to control the young master and make him give up fighting you, and then you can seize the Emperor Garden, reverse the refinement, and achieve a human form?"
Feng Shiming nodded and said, "Yes, although the process of becoming an adult is a bit difficult, I am not completely unsure. It's just that... I try to avoid the complications if possible... And it just so happens that the mind-boggling nightmare can be performed through something 'intimately related', and this trap box is the best medium..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Liuling suddenly drew out his sword, and the remaining Flying Eagle Legion in the field also blocked Feng Shiming in front of him. Then at this moment, a crackling sound fell into Mu Liuling's ears, making her face change drastically.
That was the sound of the barrier breaking!
"Have you already started?"
Feng Shiming nodded calmly: "I'm talking to you while letting you know that you're going to die, and I'm doing it at the same time... It's just a crude way of doing two things at once, why are you so surprised?"
"You..." Mu Liuling was anxious and angry, but she had never expected that Feng Shiming's strength had reached the point where she could not sense his attack. She was about to resist, but Feng Shiming raised his right hand, and countless wind blades shot out from his palm, cutting off the necks, wings, and limbs of the remaining Flying Eagle Legion from all directions... There were screams for a while, and the twelfth-level soldiers were like nothing in Feng Shiming's hands. The last few cards in Mu Liuling's hand also lost their combat ability in just a few breaths...
Feng Shiming raised his hand, and a crescent-shaped wind blade rolled up the mechanism box, and it fell into his hand with a whoosh. Mu Liuling was very anxious when she saw this, but before she could move, countless wind blades instantly knocked her away, and forced her against the wall with a bang. Several wind blades trapped her like a chain. Her hands, thighs... were cut everywhere by the wind blades, bleeding...
But at this moment, Mu Liuling had no intention of caring about her own safety. She was only concerned about the mechanism box in Feng Shiming's hand...
"No... No! We can't let the young master be controlled by him!"
Mu Liuling gritted her teeth and struggled desperately, bleeding profusely, but the gap in strength was there. No matter how hard she tried, she could only watch Feng Shiming wrap the mind-boggling nightmare around the mechanism box, and then infiltrate step by step...
However…
At this moment, a teasing voice sounded in the room...
"Hmm, this is indeed the worst case scenario..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Shiming froze. This was certainly not because he was distracted, but because... the mechanism box struggled violently for a moment, and then, it broke free from his control and flew into the hands of the person who came with a whoosh!
Chu Tianxiao!
"Young Master!" Mu Liuling almost couldn't hold back his tears when he saw that familiar figure...
"Haha, Liu Ling, you did a great job. Now let the young master take over..."
Chu Tianxiao waved his hand, and countless starlights lit up, transforming into sword energy. With a clang, he pulled out all the wind blades. Mu Liuling was immediately freed from the shackles, and regardless of his injuries, he hurriedly said, "Young Master, be careful, this person..."
"I already know." Chu Tianxiao smiled faintly, "Heal yourself and just watch from the side."
Listening to such a confident and familiar voice, Mu Liuling felt that all the storms had passed. Even when facing a strong enemy like Feng Shiming, his heart was still at peace, as if as long as his young master was present, he didn't have to worry about anything...
"Chu Tianxiao... You came so quickly?" Feng Shiming frowned slightly, looking at the mechanism box in his hand, his voice gradually turned cold, "It seems that your control over the watchtower is even better than that of the original owner Zuo Qiuyun? It's unexpected..."
"Heh..." Chu Tianxiao smiled but said nothing, but he looked at Feng Shiming with interest, and said in amazement, "You have given me so many surprises, tut tut, you are an energy body that wants to be a human, you are so arrogant, does Lord Feng know?"
"... He is him, I am me, and when I grow up, there will be a battle." Feng Shiming said coldly, "Now you have two choices, first, death, second, a bewildering nightmare awaits you!"
"Hmm... It seems that you really know everything... As expected, whether it is the pawn of the Mo family or you, if you want to succeed, you must rely on me, the initiator of the ultimate trial..." Chu Tianxiao smiled faintly, but it was full of amusement. Seeing this, Feng Shiming frowned deeply, but his voice turned indifferent: "Don't choose? Humph, it doesn't matter. With my current strength, I can easily crush you. By then, everything will be beyond your control!"
"Hehe... If you are so sure, why did you tell me so much but still not dare to do it?"
Chu Tianxiao looked at Feng Shiming and said leisurely: "I know you probably just have a bad premonition now, so... I will turn that premonition into reality now."
He sneered in his heart.
"Do you really think that you have cheated, your strength has soared, and I can't beat you by using the invincible horizontal attack?"
As he spoke, Chu Tianxiao took out something, and immediately, golden lights appeared around Feng Shiming one after another, wrapping him tightly in the blink of an eye!
