Gao Zhi shouted loudly, his voice like a great bell, echoing in the vast ruins: "Shi Feiyang, you demon, you won't leave here alive today, hmph!" With that, he swung the Wolf Fang Club, with the force of a thousand tons, like a mad bull crashing viciously toward Shi Feiyang.

Seeing this, Shi Feiyang did not panic, sidestepping swiftly, his movements agile like a nimble monkey.

At the same time, he activated the "Shock Eye Tribulation", his gaze as cold as ice and as piercing as a lightning bolt, shooting towards Gao Zhi. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Gao Zhi only felt a chill rise from the depths of his heart, as if an invisible icy hand had gripped his heart tightly, causing his mind to shake violently.

This sudden chill caused his attack with the Wolf Fang Club to slow down.

Shi Feiyang seized this opportunity, striking out sharply with his right palm, the gust from his palm roared, carrying the power to overturn mountains and seas.

With a "bang" sound, Gao Zhi's head was instantly shattered, brain matter and blood splattering everywhere, the scene was extremely gruesome.

Shi Feiyang did not stop there, cleverly incorporating parts of the "Holy Heart Technique" into the fierce battle.

He wielded the Celestial Frost Blade, performing the "Evil Blood Tribulation".

He utilized the blood flowing from Gao Zhi's death, using blood to draw more blood, a bizarre power quickly spread.

The nearby bandits felt an invisible force pulling their blood uncontrollably, vomiting blood violently, their faces turning pale, their bodies quickly shriveling, dying as they lost all their blood.

In an instant, the ranks of the bandits were thrown into chaos, fleeing in all directions amidst continuous screams.

Shi Feiyang's eyes shone bright as he swiftly placed the "Holy Heart Technique" secret manual into an invisible deerskin pouch at his waist.

After securing the secret manual, Shi Feiyang twirled his body, fighting and retreating amidst the enemy.

He charged left and right, like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, his fierce momentum was unstoppable.

With each move, he carried a fierce momentum, wherever the Celestial Frost Blade reached, the bandits fell, their screams filling the air without end.

He moved like a black lightning bolt through the enemy ranks, dancing like a whirlwind, the blade light flickering, blood splattering, staining the ancient ruins' floor even bloodier.

Finally, with his extraordinary martial arts skills and fearless courage, he successfully fought his way out of the ruins.

However, the scene before him made Shi Feiyang's heart sink abruptly.

Outside the ruins, they were already heavily surrounded by the Giant Whale Gang and Japanese pirates, layer upon layer, impenetrable, like a giant fishing net trapping him within. They were like a pack of hungry wolves, their eyes flashing with greed and murderous intent, staring at Shi Feiyang as if he were a lamb awaiting slaughter.

Shi Feiyang thought to himself: "Are these Japanese pirates really after just the 'Holy Heart Technique'? It can't be that simple! There must be another hidden agenda. Could it be that there's something even more astonishing hidden in the cave? Have the 600 boys and girls granted by Emperor Qin Shi Huang to Xu Fu cultivated into immortals? Or is there a repository of the immortal elixirs and pills left behind by Xu Fu after becoming an immortal?"

Such thoughts flashed rapidly in his mind, making him more vigilant.

Shi Feiyang took a deep breath, activating the Bright Jade Technique, his True Qi flowed and surged through him like a rushing river.

In an instant, a faint aura rose around him, this aura resembling a tangible shield, rhythmically fluctuating with his breath, within the aura faintly flickering mysterious runes, the manifestation of the Bright Jade Technique's mighty power.

Then, he performed the "Shock Eye Tribulation" from the "Holy Heart Technique," his gaze suddenly intense, like a cold gleam shooting out.

The leading Japanese pirate felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart, quickly spreading throughout his body.

In the blink of an eye, the pirate was covered in frost, his body stiffened, followed by a "crack" sound, shattering and dying, disintegrating into fragments that scattered all over.

Seizing this perfect opportunity, Shi Feiyang swung the Celestial Frost Blade horizontally in his hand, a cold light flashed by like a lightning bolt slicing through the night sky, decapitating a Japanese pirate. The head flew up like a kite with a broken string, drawing an arc in the air, blood gushing from the neck like a fountain.

Taking advantage of this blood-splattered moment, Shi Feiyang performed the "Evil Blood Tribulation".

He moved like lightning, wielding the Celestial Frost Blade, weaving through the enemy freely, those Japanese pirates immediately screamed, spitting blood violently from their mouths.

Shi Feiyang's figure moved swiftly among the enemy, like a phantom, with each swing of the Celestial Frost Blade, a trail of blood shed, severed limbs flew everywhere, staining the ground with blood, the scene extremely bloody.

The evil bandits of the Giant Whale Gang, seeing the situation turning bad, fled towards the sea like startled birds and beasts, rushing to board boats to escape this terrifying ancient ruin. Shi Feiyang watched the fleeing enemies but didn't recklessly chase after.

He knew well that there might be an even more significant secret hidden within the ruins, so he turned and re-entered the cave.

Upon entering, Shi Feiyang noticed a strange aura permeating the cave.

Cautiously, he held the Celestial Frost Blade, moving forward slowly, the blade occasionally scraping the cave floor, making a "sizzling" sound.

Suddenly, the ground beneath his feet vibrated slightly, followed by a stone slab slowly moving aside, revealing a bottomless trap mechanism.

With high skills and daring, Shi Feiyang didn't hesitate to protect himself with the Celestial Frost Blade, leaping into the trap.

Just after landing, countless cold arrows rained down like a storm from all directions.

Shi Feiyang reacted quickly, swinging the Celestial Frost Blade tightly, forming a silver curtain of light, deflecting the incoming cold arrows, the "ding ding dang dang" sounds echoed within the trap.

Next, a pungent smell came, countless mercury surged like overflowing tides, quickly flooding the trap's bottom, threatening to submerge Shi Feiyang.

Seeing this, Shi Feiyang roared, activating the highest level of the Bright Jade Technique – "Asura of Boundless Poles".

In an instant, the aura around him transformed, emanating a powerful chill capable of freezing everything in the world.

Under this chill's shroud, the surging mercury gradually froze, turning into a silver ice sheet.

Shi Feiyang eyes sharp as torches, scanning the ice sheet to find a stone platform with an elaborately crafted box.

The box was engraved with peculiar patterns, glowing with a mysterious light in the dim surroundings.

Cautiously, Shi Feiyang gripped the Celestial Frost Blade, slowly approaching the stone platform, then reached out to open the wooden box.

As the box opened, a cloud of toxic mist mixed with countless poisonous silver needles shot out.

Shi Feiyang snorted coldly, performing the "Shock Eye Tribulation" divine skill.

His gaze flickered with cold light, where it reached, countless toxic mist and silver needles instantly froze into icicles, falling to the ground and shattering with crisp sounds. Shi Feiyang looked closely, finding Xu Fu's secret treasure inside the wooden box.

It was a pill emitting a gentle glow, standing out in the darkness.

It seemed to be the "Immortal Medicine" left by Xu Fu, sparking numerous parties to vie for it.

However, no one dared to easily open the trap mechanism, or perhaps they hadn't discovered the trap mechanism beneath their feet.

Shi Feiyang took Xu Fu's diary out of the deerskin pouch on his waist and slowly opened it.

The diary's pages were yellowed, exuding an aura of antiquity.

Carefully reading this wicked record, he found it noted that years ago, Xu Fu took 600 boys and girls out to sea in search of the method of immortality.

However, dreadful was the fact that Xu Fu used the bodies of over 500 boys and girls as the medicinal guide in refining the Immortal Pill, then mixed in phoenix blood, overcoming countless hardships, finally successfully refining the Immortal Pill.

Because of this, Xu Fu gained extraordinary power, living for over two thousand years, and founded this unparalleled divine skill, the "Holy Heart Technique".

Later, Xu Fu fell to the "Five Thunders Extremity Transformation Hand", created by himself and executed by Duanlang, his millennia of power destroyed, eventually killed by Duanlang.

Shi Feiyang's gaze locked tightly onto the several dozen pills emitting a gentle glow, his hesitation transient, a strong desire driving him to hesitate no more. He reached out with trembling hand, fingertip lightly touching one of the pills, a warm and mysterious power instantly spread throughout his body, causing a slight numbness in his arm.

Taking a deep breath, he brought the pill to his lips, lightly plucking it, the pill melted instantly in his mouth, transforming into a hot torrent, rushing through his throat like a surging river, quickly sliding down into his stomach.
