C740 That Year Today
"Today we will rest and recuperate in this city. This is the last city before we reach Shanluo." Qi Tianxiong led the way, pointing towards the distant city that was faintly discernible as he commanded everyone.
Lin Feng didn't rest during his journey. It was already the third day since he left Cangzhou City.
Traveling with high intensity indeed made everyone tired, so there was no objection to Qi Tianxiong's suggestion. After all, only when Qi Tianxiong was in his best condition could he go all out when he encountered a Demon General.
People who had fought against cholera understood this principle deeply. Those who had never seen the strength of Demon Generals also understood how terrifying it was after Lin Feng and the others explained it to them.
Qi Tianxiong played a key role in this matter.
Because Qi Tianxiong, who was as strong as him, had a more serious expression when he mentioned the Demon Generals. It was as if he understood them very well.
Along the way, Lin Feng didn't get the chance to ask. Now that they finally stopped to rest, Lin Feng seized the opportunity to ask.
"Boss, from what you said before, you seem to have some understanding of the Demon General's Nine." Lin Feng asked Qi Tianxiong while carrying a pot of tea.
"Kid, you've wanted to ask this a long time ago, right?" Qi Tianxiong glanced at Lin Feng, as if he had seen through everything.
"Hehe, nothing can escape the eyes of the big boss. This entire journey, I have truly held back too much." Lin Feng scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.
"However, I've heard that you already have some understanding of this Demon General. Even his numbers and the way he's dealt with him are known. It was only after hearing your words that everyone followed him here." Qi Tianxiong narrowed his eyes and asked Lin Feng.
"It's reasonable to say that none of your generation or even the previous generation should know about that thing, because after Divine King finished off the Demon Generals, he set an iron law not to bring this matter up."
"I had the chance to hear it from a senior." Lin Feng quickly explained.
"Whatever, this is your secret. I won't ask too much. Since you want to know, then I'll tell you about this Demon General and the place that I know." Qi Tianxiong looked at Lin Feng thoughtfully for a while, then shook his head and recalled.
"I left my family when I was 14 and traveled the world. During this time, I encountered countless strange treasures. The first time the Demon General appeared was also when I first discovered him …"
From Qi Tianxiong's mouth, Lin Feng heard the past that the two Black and White Elders never spoke of. That is, the time when the Demon Generals had yet to combine their forces and were still very scattered like now.
What Lin Feng did not expect was that Qi Tianxiong had such a crazy history. He fought against the Demon Generals alone.
Although it ended in failure, that was also why Qi Tianxiong was in closed door training later on, in order to raise his strength to the point where he could defeat the Demon Generals.
This trial lasted for a hundred years!
When he came out, things changed. The only thing that didn't change was that the Demon General appeared once again.
Or perhaps it could be said that Qi Tianxiong woke up after sensing the appearance of the demon general. After all, the reason why he went from an unruly and unrestrained youth to a white-haired old man was for this anger.
"So that's how it is, big boss is also a person who has experienced so much hardships!" Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh.
However, Qi Tianxiong immediately rejected it, "This is not hardship. To me, this is absolute wealth. If it wasn't for this experience, I would never have been made into the current me! Speaking of which, I might have to thank the Demon Generals. "
Lin Feng was slightly surprised, then he shook his head with a wry smile. Even when he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to deal with the Demon Generals, there was actually a senior in the team who directly thanked the Demon Generals.
However, it was also because of Qi Tianxiong's attitude that Lin Feng had gained more confidence in defeating the Demon Generals.
"No matter what, I will definitely not face the same danger I once faced."
"Kid, you are still young, yet you speak with the tone of an old man. You have truly missed your age." Qi Tianxiong couldn't help but tease Lin Feng when he saw his troubled expression.
"Boss, don't tease me. This junior has never had the strength of a big boss and is about to face the Demon General. No matter what, I can't rest at ease." Lin Feng could only explain with a wry smile.
"You have grasped so many abilities, yet you are still so careful. If I had been as calm as you back then, I wouldn't have been in such a life-threatening situation." Qi Tianxiong also said with a smile. It was unknown if it was praise or criticism.
The rest time passed by very quickly. The next day, just as dawn arrived, everyone set out on their journey.
A cold chill pressed down from the sky.2
Standing on top of a tall mountain, everyone looked at the Endless Mountain range in front of them, as well as countless deep ravines and abyss.
Suddenly, one of the Chu Clan's female disciples swayed and was about to fall.
Chu Yue quickly supported him and then looked at Lin Feng for help.
In fact, the moment they fell on this mountain, everyone felt an inexplicable pressure pressing down on them. It was as if an invisible hand was pressing down on their chests.
The disciple of the Chu family was also exhausted, so he could not bear the pressure and fainted.
At this point, no one doubted Qi Tianxiong's words before he left.
Without further ado, Lin Feng took out the jade bottle and distributed the pills to the crowd. As expected, not long later, that inexplicable pressure disappeared.
After solving the necessary survival problems, Lin Feng started to think about how to find the Demon Generals. However, looking at the endless mountain range in front of them, Lin Feng wanted to specify a plan, but he didn't know where to start.
Could it be that everyone had to search the area bit by bit?
That was a good relationship. When they found it, they would probably encounter eight Demon Generals united.
"No idea?" Seeing that everyone was speechless after taking the pill, Qi Tianxiong asked.
"Please answer my questions." Seeing Qi Tianxiong's expression, Lin Feng grabbed hold of the hope.
In the end, his team still had some legs he could hug.
"Whatever. Since I have come with all of you and am considered your companions, I cannot hide what I know. Please follow me." Qi Tianxiong shook his head as he felt the pleading gazes from the crowd.
With that said, he skipped the preaching stage and stepped onto the Flying Sword, continuing to lead the way.
Qi Tianxiong finally stopped at a mountainside after climbing a few hills.
In front of him was a pitch black cave.
Without explaining anything, Qi Tianxiong put away his Spirit Sword and walked straight into the cave.
Lin Feng naturally didn't ask any further questions and followed closely behind.
There was nothing else in the cave but a long passageway. When they arrived at the end, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.
The huge mountain had been dug up and emptied. Bird-like creatures that were bigger than humans were flying around.
