Wayfarer-Chapter 358: Slaying Xiang Shaoyin

"This is your yin body? How did you transform between your physical body and yin body? It looks as real as your physical body. You must have some sort of yin body-related treasure. You really do have a lot of treasures, don't you?" Xiang Shaoyin's voice was laced with greed.

"Your brother's about to die to Nalan Qiankun, and you're eyeing my treasures?" Xiao Nanfeng retorted coldly.

"What?" Xiang Shaoyin blanched.

"Nalan Qiankun's attacking Tianwu right this moment. Do you want to go have a look?" Xiao Nanfeng asked.

The Immortals all turned to Xiang Shaoyin, who frowned. Then, he smiled coldly. "Xiao Nanfeng, you must be trying to trick me because of how scared you are."

"Believe me or not, I don't care. Come if you want to die!" Xiao Nanfeng challenged them.

"Attack!" Xiang Shaoyin shouted.

One Immortal was the first to attack. Xiao Nanfeng met his sword with a fist, blocking its advance as he punched him with his other hand.

"Hegemon's Fist!"

As a barrage of fists struck the Immortal's qi barrier, it shattered. The Immortal flew out and spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.

"You can't even survive a single blow?" Xiao Nanfeng glanced disdainfully at the fallen cultivator.

"Charge him together! He's not stronger than we are. He simply has an overwhelming fist technique. We'll make up for the disadvantage with numbers. Slaughter him!" Xiang Shaoyin shouted.

"Understood!"

The cultivators struck Xiao Nanfeng at maximum strength, but Xiao Nanfeng didn't fear them. He struck with Hegemon's Fist, filling the air around him with punches. Even one against ten, he was able to block all their attacks.

"How is your Hegemon's Fist so strong?!" Xiang Shaoyin exclaimed.

"It's a pity I didn't have any more time to continue contemplating the star maps on the Dazheng Code of Laws. Otherwise, my cultivation would have advanced further, and it would have been even easier for me to deal with all of them," Xiao Nanfeng thought to himself.

With another burst of energy, he caused two more Immortals to vomit out blood as they were sent flying. A sandstorm formed around him.

In the distance, Tang gaped in shock. Suddenly, he turned around warily. A female Immortal had appeared beside him out of nowhere—the cultivator into whom the paper figure cursed effigy had transformed.

"Pestilence Sage, why are you still here? Lead the black skeleton away!" the paper figure called out.

"It's you!" Tang recognized the figure as Cui Haitang's close confidante. Hiding a bit of his surprise, he explained, "The black skeleton won't listen to me at all. Only Her Majesty's voice or aura can awaken it. Only then can I suppress it and command it with the left division leader's token. I can't do anything as is!"

"I'll awaken it. Focus on suppressing it, and then we'll leave immediately!" the paper figure instructed.

"You'll awaken it?" Tang seemed a little incredulous.

The paper figure held onto a shred of Cui Haitang's soul and directed it at the black skeleton.

The black skeleton sensed a disturbance while fighting Blue Lantern. It cocked its head toward the paper figure, then flew over.

"Haitang's soul fragment? What happened to her?" the black skeleton cried out.

"Her Majesty is grievously injured. You must help her immediately!" the paper figure cried out.

"Hurry up, then! The demonic rage is going to overtake me. I won't be able to control myself for much longer!" the black skeleton called out.

Tang immediately suppressed the black skeleton with the left division leader's token, sealing the black flames around the skeleton. It was pacified immediately.

The paper figure looked all around and said, "Blue Lantern has noticed us. We'll have to leave."

"Ah? Alright!" Tang replied.

The paper figure, Tang, and the black skeleton flew toward the horizon and vanished from sight.

Blue Lantern relaxed. He had sustained rather serious injuries while fighting the black skeleton. Rather than give chase, he wiped at the blood trickling down his lips and turned to Xiao Nanfeng's battlefield.

"Xiao Nanfeng survived that tribulation? He truly is a genius. No wonder there are so many cursed kings eyeing him..." Blue Lantern murmured.

He sucked in a deep breath as he flew toward Xiao Nanfeng. The ground rose up around him as he moved, as though there were a huge draconic vein that Blue Lantern was dragging around. He stopped only when he was close to the fighting.

"Disorienting Sandstorm Formation, Heavenly Stems Formation, combine!" Blue Lantern shouted.

With a hum, a golden circle of light appeared beneath him. That golden circle was divided into ten sections, each with one of the heavenly stems emblazoned in gold. The ten golden symbols fell into the sand, causing the draconic vein underground to keen. Then, countless sandstorms rose into the air, trapping the gathered cultivators.

"This is a formation! King Shaoyin, where are you?!" one cultivator exclaimed.

Xiang Shaoyin and the other nine cultivators had been separated into ten distinct regions of the formation, and none of them were able to see the others.

An Immortal stood before Xiao Nanfeng.

"Thanks, Blue Lantern! Stabilize the formations and I'll kill them one by one!"

While outnumbered, he was afraid that they would target his silver moon, but there was now nothing to fear. The silver moon rose into the air and a deific domain expanded around him. He brandished his divine undying blade as he charged forward.

The Immortal blanched and retaliated with his sword.

"Go, frost!" Xiao Nanfeng commanded.

A howling blizzard swept up the Immortal and froze his qi barrier solid—along with the Immortal himself.

"No!" the Immortal cried out.

Xiao Nanfeng cut him apart with a slash of his blade.

"Next!" Xiao Nanfeng commanded.

Blue Lantern waved an arm, causing the formation to rotate rapidly. Xiao Nanfeng appeared before another Immortal.

One against ten, Xiao Nanfeng still had to be cautious. One against one, however, it would be a piece of cake.

"Blizzard, strike!" Xiao Nanfeng shouted.

The second Immortal was killed on the spot.

"Next!" Xiao Nanfeng shouted.

By then, the remaining cultivators in the formation were starting to panic. They had guessed that Xiao Nanfeng was taking advantage of the formation to kill their companions; it would quickly be their turn.

"Help, King Shaoyin!" another Immortal cried out as Xiao Nanfeng slew him.

However, Xiang Shaoyin himself was trapped within the sandstorm formation. No matter how he flew, he was unable to get out.

"Damn it. Destroy your Immortal weapons and explode Xiao Nanfeng to death!" Xiang Shaoyin shouted.

The explosions of Immortal relics rang out across the desert.

The next moment, the Immortal cried out, "It's useless! He avoided it! There's a blizzard all around me. I can't stand it anymore!"

Xiang Shaoyin thundered, "Xiao Nanfeng, stop it!"

He immediately sat cross-legged in the desert as he retrieved a treasure that formed a dome around him to protect his physical body. Then, a transparent shadow emerged from his mindscape: his yin body.

To the back of his head was a white moon wreathed in black wind. Surprisingly, his aura seemed far stronger than even Xiao Nanfeng's.

The yin body picked up an Immortal sword and flew into the air. The bright moon to his back radiated with incredible light. With the illumination bolstering his sight, he looked all around. Three of his subordinates were rushing about frantically. Meanwhile, Xiao Nanfeng had frozen another Immortal within a blizzard and cut her down.

"Hold it!" Xiang Shaoyin shouted.

With his yin body, he passed through the barriers imposed by the formation and approached Xiao Nanfeng's region.

Blue Lantern's voice could suddenly be heard from the formation. "Xiao Nanfeng, he's at mid-stage Yin Body. He's stronger than you are!"

By then, Xiao Nanfeng had just slain his sixth Immortal. He turned to see Xiang Shaoyin charging toward him with a sword.

Xiao Nanfeng countered with his own blade.

Both cultivators were forced back.

"Xiao Nanfeng, for killing six of my Immortal subordinates, I'm going to kill you!" Xiang Shaoyin thundered.

"Really? What a joke. You can raid me, but I can't defend myself and counterattack? The moment you betrayed the alliance, you should have expected this outcome. None of you will survive the day!" Xiao Nanfeng declared.

"Die, Xiao Nanfeng!"

The pale moon to the back of his head floated into the sky as his deific domain expanded. Black wind manifested out of nowhere, contesting the blizzard's dominance.

"The demonic black moon? Xiao Nanfeng, his spiritual cultivation technique is renowned and known to be particularly vicious. Be careful!" Blue Lantern warned.

The two moons fought for dominance in the air. One gave off incredible frost, while black winds raged around the other. Suddenly, Xiang Shaoyin's moon visibly shook. A black dot emerged at the center of the moon, forming an eye that seemed to arrest one's soul. The eye looked down.

"Be careful! He's managed to develop an eye of calamity. It can destroy heaven and earth—have your moon avoid it!" Blue Lantern shouted.

However, Xiao Nanfeng's silver moon didn't hide from its demonic counterpart. A crack appeared on its surface. Then, the crack expanded like a widening mouth, revealing sharp teeth that chomped down on the demonic black moon and swallowed it whole.

Xiang Shaoyin gaped. He was shellshocked. What was going on? Why did Xiao Nanfeng's moon have teeth? How could it have consumed his moon?

"Xiao Nanfeng, you merged your spiritual moon with a cursed king? Are you crazy?!" Blue Lantern shouted from deep within the sandstorm.

The moon distorted as it chewed on Xiang Shaoyin's moon.

"My demonic black moon! Has it really been eaten? This is impossible—argh!" Xiang Shaoyin shouted.

He suffered a bout of backlash as his spiritual moon was destroyed, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood as he stumbled in weakness.

"Die!" Xiao Nanfeng shouted, slashing at him with his sword.

Xiang Shaoyin's yin body was bisected. He died on the spot.
