True Solution of the Sword Dao

The man in the crimson hand was still dressed in a black trench coat, with long hair like seaweed draped across his shoulders, exuding a wild and overbearing aura.

He looked up at the faint aura permeating the sky. "This is the aura of a Divine Artifact component, which I have felt before in Germany. This place is now completely enveloped by the power of the Divine Artifact. What a grand gesture."

"What do you mean?" Lin Fei stood by his side, also looking up at the sky, where he saw a layer resembling a watery golden film.

"Activating the power of the Divine Artifact to cover such a large area means that all the personnel and powerhouses within the area will receive varying degrees of amplification effect. The situation is akin to the existence of the Dream World. You can understand it as us all having entered into the Dream World of the Divine Artifact, which means we’ve lost the home ground advantage. The price for creating this home field is the need for a B-level Dream Eater to continuously stimulate the artifact’s main body. Which is to say, they’ve sacrificed the combat power of a B-level powerhouse in exchange for this area-wide buff," explained the man in the crimson hand.

"There’s nobody ahead, let’s go in," Yuan Yicheng said with a slight frown.

The surrounding alarms continued to sound, but apart from the five corpses in front of them, no other person could be seen. Clearly, everyone had retreated back to the manor.

"They’re unsure of our numbers, so this defensive strategy is indeed not bad. However, it’s a pity we’re only three people here. If other forces knew that the Wu Family’s main formation was scared into this by just three people, I wonder what their reaction would be," the man in the crimson hand said with a smile. "I’ll go in first."

With a flicker, his figure vanished, clearly using the illusionary and real transitions of the Dream Space to directly enter the manor.

Yuan Yicheng took a step forward, walking in front.

"My lord, I will clear all the obstacles for you."

"Then I’ll leave it to you," Lin Fei said with a smile.

The two walked directly towards the manor entrance, heading for the enclosing wall.

Clang!!

A snow-white crescent flash appeared and vanished in an instant, and the whole enclosing wall collapsed in a moment. A gust of wind blew away all the dust and debris, and they instantly passed through the wall.

All of a sudden, numerous blue ice spikes flew towards them from all directions. Behind them was a surging sea of fiery red flames, and from the ground, numerous peculiar insects quickly crawled out of the soil. There were also colorful, continuously changing, psychedelic lines twisting in the air on their way to the two.

Intense heat, biting cold, suffocation, oppression, and myriad other complex auras rushed towards the area.

"Moonlight, twenty," Yuan Yicheng instantly drew his sword, as a series of ringing clangs sounded simultaneously.

Numerous snow-white crescents suddenly lit up around them.

Lin Fei’s figure blurred instantly, leaving a silver orb in his place. Silver mixed with blue smoke energy burst forth, countering the numerous malicious forces that had taken the form of attacking powers.

"I’ll take a step ahead; this place is yours," Lin Fei said, walking swiftly forward as countless moons flickered by his side, each flicker accompanied by a scream.

The malicious aura outside, like an ocean, was all kept at bay about four or five meters from him. In the face of True Force, an otherworldly higher energy, the malevolent aura didn’t seem very effective.

"I’ll catch up with you soon," Lin Fei said, speeding through the encirclement wrapped in blue smoke.

Outside the encirclement was a large group of the Wu Family’s Dream Eaters, led by a middle-aged man with a small mustache.

Lin Fei brushed by the man in an instant, as a bright red splash of blood erupted from the middle-aged man’s throat. Lin Fei could even see the surprise and unwillingness in the man’s eyes as he fell to the ground.

Everything blurred as all the people were left behind in an instant.

Without any hesitation, Lin Fei charged towards the location of the Divine Artifact indicated by the Blue Flame.

All the Wu Family members he passed were struck by a sudden spray of blood, clutching their throats as they fell to the ground.

"Stop him!!"

"I’m coming!! Get out of the way!"

"Ugh..."

"Xiao Qi!!"

In the corridor, whether they bore the aura of D-grade or C-grade Dream Eaters, they were all instantaneously killed.

Inside the manor’s living room, the central control room.

Boom!!!!

"You can stop now."

Everything around came to an abrupt halt.

Lin Fei, holding a longsword, slammed fiercely against a thin membrane, a slender layer of dark energy tinged with gold that seemed fragile but was exceptionally tough.

With a light leap, she stepped on the surrounding walls to gain leverage and flipped over. Lin Fei landed next to the Scarlet Hand.

This was already the interior hall of the manor.

Lin Fei’s speed was too fast, in just a few blinks, she had arrived directly at the most inner area.

The Scarlet Hand looked gravely at the burly middle-aged man standing opposite him.

"Wu Yanqing, the Wu Family’s future Clan Leader and heir."

On the ground around him lay the bodies of several dozen Dream Eaters, each with different auras. They were presumably the handiwork of the Scarlet Hand.

Wu Yanqing’s face also wore a grim expression. He hadn’t expected the other side to move so swiftly, nor that they would enlist a top-level powerhouse, the unscathed Blood Hand. If not for the Power of the Divine Artifact earlier, he likely would have been dealt with directly by the Scarlet Hand, just like the other family members lying on the ground.

Behind him was a golden circular entrance.

"What’s that?" Lin Fei asked softly.

"The entrance to the Divine Artifact domain, an effect produced by the Divine Artifact itself in his right hand," explained the Scarlet Hand. "Now, because Wu Yanqing is connected to the Divine Artifact entrance, it will move within a small range with him, but only within this covered area. In this area, his strength is more than doubled!!"

A strong scent of blood pervaded the entire hall.

The three stood facing each other, silent for a moment.

"Brother, answer the phone, brother, answer the phone..."

Suddenly, the ring of a cellphone came from Lin Fei. He took it out lightly and saw that it was Shuang’er.

A call at this time?

He pressed the answer button.

"What’s the matter?"

"Indeed..." An unfamiliar man’s voice suddenly came through the phone, somewhat aged. "Indeed, what Haiyi said was right. Your speed is indeed very fast. We have seen everything there."

Lin Fei’s expression darkened, and a chill went through his heart. "Who are you?"

"I am Wu Duanshan," the aged voice said calmly. "This little girl is your companion, no? She must be an important person to you, right?"

A faint blue glow began to emerge in Lin Fei’s eyes. He repressed the turmoil in his heart.

"If you want her to be safe, leave that place and come to Capital City by yourself. We are waiting for you here," the elder said gravely.

Crack!!

The cellphone was instantly crushed to bits.

Lin Fei raised his head with a cold gaze.

"How did he find Shuang’er?"

Wu Yanqing looked at him quietly with a trace of pity in her eyes.

"Indeed, the weakness of someone important is your weak point. Haiyi had also memorized the aura of another person besides you. With the power of the Divine Artifact, we can find your location directly at a certain cost."

"Memorized the aura?"

Lin Fei stood still and gently closed his eyes.

"Aren’t you leaving yet? Give up. No matter how fast you are, it’s impossible to succeed," Wu Yanqing said indifferently.

**************

In a villa in the outskirts of Capital City,

Shuang’er was firmly imprisoned within a dark gray translucent sphere.

Wu Duanshan and Wu Duanhe stood quietly in front of a floor-to-ceiling window.

Around them were Wu Siyun, Wu Haiyi, and other powerful individuals. All the elites of the Wu Family, top-level fighters, except for Wu Yanqing, were here.

Wu Duanshan held a cellphone that suddenly emitted a crackling sound, then something like a beep followed.

"I’m a bit worried about Yanqing."

"Yanqing has the enhancement of a Divine Artifact component. If she uses that move, it will cause indiscriminate damage; we couldn’t stay there and make her hesitant. It’s more convenient for her to be alone."

"Besides, the person important to him is in our hands now. We just need to focus our strength and wait for him to come. Aside from the Blue Flame, he’s just an ordinary speed-type Dream Eater."

"Offending our Wu Family, he will ultimately fall here," Wu Duanshan said dispassionately.

***************

"Give up," Wu Yanqing’s voice slowly echoed in the hall.

Hiss...

The Longsword was slowly drawn.

Lin Fei slowly opened his eyes, deep blue luminescence flickering within them.

"Give up?"

Roar!!

Inside a golden circle, a burst of Blue Flame instantly flew out and landed on Lin Fei.

A ring of blue light exploded abruptly.

"Tracing Shadow Sword Art, when I retreat, I will be quicker than a shadow," Lin Fei murmured.

"The last technique, Extreme Shadow!"

Boom!!!!

Countless Blue Flames suddenly exploded.

Wu Yanqing’s right hand’s silver ring instantly broke apart, the diamond on it vanishing in a flash.

A phantasmal figure flashed briefly in front of Wu Yanqing.

"How... how is it possible!!!??" Wu Yanqing incredulously raised her hand, staring dumbfoundedly at the Divine Artifact on her right hand.

Outside.

Under the shining moonlight, Yuan Yicheng suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with shock.

In midair, a silver comet instantly streaked across the sky, shooting towards Capital City.

Inside the villa,

Wu Duanshan’s eyes were filled with horror.

In the center of the hall, Shuang’er calmly sat on the floor with not a hint of panic in her eyes.

"Brother will come to save me," she murmured softly.

Sssht!!

A flash of silver burst out.

In the blinding silver light, the black film exploded directly.

Lin Fei slowly walked out from amidst the silver.

Roar!!!

A gigantic dragon head suddenly emerged from behind him, ferociously biting towards Wu Haiyi standing to one side.

Enormous Blue Pressure enveloped the entire hall.

Wu Haiyi was completely immobilized, as if reliving the ordeal of his clone. He widened his eyes, helplessly watching the Blue Flame dragon head tear towards him.

"You dare!!!" Both Wu brothers moved at once. Black aura exploded, contending with the endless Blue Flame. The entire hall was split in two, one side black, the other blue.

Lin Fei’s figure flashed, and suddenly a thin red line appeared on Wu Haiyi’s throat.

"Weak points only exist in the weak," he said softly.

Amidst the thunderous roars, the entire villa collapsed. Countless colorful evil auras burst forth.

Lin Fei disappeared on the spot with Shuang’er.

In a forest on the outskirts of Capital City,

Lin Fei, holding Shuang’er, gradually appeared.

Sssss...

Gushes of fresh blood instantly spurted out from Lin Fei’s body.

"Brother!" Shuang’er’s cries grew fainter as Lin Fei completely lost consciousness. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast recommendation votes, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
