Lin Shuai Nan also quickly emerged from his meditative state.
"Huh? I've broken through too! Big Brother, you've broken through to the Tribulation Crossing stage, this is great!"
Lin Shuai Nan first looked all over himself, and after sensing his own condition, he was quite happy.
But the next moment, his gaze fell upon Ling Feng.
He cupped his hands towards Ling Feng with a face full of congratulations.
Ling Feng simply smiled faintly, "You must have successfully refined the ninth-grade pill just now, right? I was in meditation here for a while, and I didn't expect my cultivation to break through!"
"A while? You've been sitting here for a day and a night, and then I started meditating, and now... the sky seems to have darkened again, it's already been two days and two nights, right?"
Lin Shuai Nan scratched the back of his head.
Ling Feng frowned slightly upon hearing this.
How could this be?
He didn't feel anything at all.
Had two days passed so quickly?
That would mean...
Seven days had already passed since Sect Leader Hong and Zhang Zhicong stole the spiritual herbs from the sect.
Would the matter be exposed?
Thinking of this, Ling Feng quickly got up.
At this moment, Lin Shuai Nan shook his head at Ling Feng with some dejection, "Big Brother, I've already refined it successfully, but you've already broken through. Isn't this ninth-grade pill going to be wasted!"
Ling Feng was stunned. It was true that this would make Lin Shuai Nan worry for nothing.
But Ling Feng quickly regained his senses.
"It won't be wasted. Shuai Nan, your cultivation has also reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage. You'll definitely be able to use it in the future. Keep it for now, and you can use it yourself later!"
"Me use it? Wouldn't that be a bit of a waste?"
Lin Shuai Nan scratched the back of his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
This was an absolutely subconscious action.
Ling Feng's heart warmed, and he patted Lin Shuai Nan on the shoulder with a hint of amusement, "What do you mean it would be a waste if you used it? This thing was refined by you, and if you can't use it yourself, no one else has the right to!"
"Heh heh, alright, but my cultivation has been improving too quickly recently. I feel like my body has developed a lot of resistance. If I want to continue improving my cultivation, I need to develop some new pills as soon as possible!"
Lin Shuai Nan shrugged his shoulders. It was clear that this kid had also reached a plateau.
After all, he had been improving very quickly before. Now that he had to slow down suddenly, Lin Shuai Nan was also a little uncomfortable.
"I know your situation. This alchemy furnace can no longer satisfy your current needs. Don't worry, I'll find you a better one later!"
Ling Feng soothed him and then walked out, releasing his divine sense.
Instantly, it covered the entire mountain peak.
The next moment, Ling Feng's expression changed drastically.
"Zhang Zhicong is not here?"
Then, Ling Feng's divine sense began to expand, covering the adjacent mountain peak, which was Sect Leader Hong's residence!
"He's not here either? It seems there's trouble!"
Ling Feng's brows furrowed. His divine sense expanded again. It had to be said that after reaching the Tribulation Crossing stage, his divine sense could even easily cover the entire Myriad Sword Sect, but to perceive subtle changes still required some effort.
Lin Shuai Nan noticed Ling Feng's changing expression and knew that something had happened.
Then Lin Shuai Nan took out something.
Ling Feng's eyes only caught a glint of light, and he instinctively looked over, his mouth twitching.
"You brought your phone in with you?"
What Lin Shuai Nan was holding was precisely a mobile phone.
"Yes, it's more convenient to carry this thing around. And I've also learned some lightning techniques recently, so charging this thing is quite convenient. If there's ever a signal, I'm still thinking of calling Xiu Xiu!"
Lin Shuai Nan said as a matter of course.
But soon his eyes widened, "Oh no, Big Brother, I was wrong earlier. It's not a day and two nights, it's been two days and three nights! The previously mentioned seven days, wouldn't that mean it's already the evening of the seventh day? Will Zhang Zhicong and the others be in trouble? If they die, wouldn't the pills I gave them earlier be wasted?"
By the end of his speech, Lin Shuai Nan couldn't help but lament the unfortunate fate of his subordinates.
Ling Feng quickly located the aura of Zhang Zhicong and the others, his expression turning grim.
"They are indeed in trouble, but they are not dead yet!"
"Not dead yet? That's good!"
Lin Shuai Nan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and then pressed Ling Feng for details, "Big Brother, where are they now?"
"In the back mountain!"
Ling Feng said coldly, having already changed his clothes. With a raise of his hand, a water ball appeared and began to spray onto his body!
Lin Shuai Nan couldn't help but cover his nose, "Whoa, Big Brother, what's that smell? Did you shit your pants?"
Ling Feng turned and glared at Lin Shuai Nan.
How could he, the dignified Heavenly War God Ling Tian, shit his pants?
"After breaking through to the Tribulation Crossing stage, I seem to have undergone another marrow cleansing and transformation. Therefore, many impurities in my body have been refined out. It's normal to have a slightly fishy and foul smell. Is this the smell of excrement and urine?"
Lin Shuai Nan nodded in realization, but still said,
"If you eat too much seafood, the poop you excrete will also have this smell!"
At this point, Ling Feng completely lost the desire to talk to Lin Shuai Nan.
"Stop the nonsense, get ready quickly, we're going to act!"
With that, Ling Feng also threw a magic robe to Lin Shuai Nan.
Lin Shuai Nan immediately recognized that the magic robe Ling Feng threw to him was of no low grade, and his eyes widened.
"Big Brother, are we going to fight?"
"It's just a confrontation with the Myriad Sword Sect, and we have no choice but to confront them, unless we watch them go to their deaths! Zhang Zhicong and the two Grand Elders, Sect Leader Hong, have been captured. Their actions of mobilizing alchemy materials must have been noticed by the Sect Master of the Myriad Sword Sect. Now that old guy has also come out of seclusion and is interrogating them. If this continues, Zhang Zhicong and the other two will die first!"
Ling Feng said casually.
Lin Shuai Nan finally understood the situation and quickly changed his clothes.
Then, as if he had thought of something.
"They've probably been captured for quite some time, and they still haven't revealed us. That's good! They still have some loyalty!"
Lin Shuai Nan had clearly recognized these subordinates.
Ling Feng shook his head with a wry smile.
This sounded like loyalty, and Zhang Zhicong and the others were quite tough.
But in reality, these were all choices made out of desperation.
Because if they revealed Ling Feng and Lin Shuai Nan's matters, even if the Myriad Sword Sect spared them, Ling Feng would not.
Not to mention that the Myriad Sword Sect would not spare them at all, and they would die no matter what!
Instead, by putting on such an attitude, claiming ignorance to all questions, and appearing as tough as a bone regardless of the torture, they could have a chance to save their lives!
"Let's stop the nonsense and save them first!"
Ling Feng said, then directly grabbed Lin Shuai Nan and used the Great Teleportation technique.
The next moment, the two of them appeared on an altar.
Elder Liu Jin Qi and others were tied to several stone pillars not far away, looking like they had been severely tortured!
