Chapter 1171

Not long after, the three figures appeared before Lin Feng and Zi Yan.

The two looked over and saw that the three figures, like the burly man before, had stone-gray skin and massive builds.

Immediately, Lin Feng and Zi Yan's gazes fell upon one familiar figure among them.

This person is about 2.67 meters tall; from the long hair and appearance, one can vaguely guess that this person is female.

And like the burly man before, his stone-gray body was covered with large and small solid muscles.

As for why Lin Feng and Zi Yan's gazes focused on her, it is because she had appeared together with the Hall Master of the Soul Hall in the recent void battle.

"Stone Clan people?"

After scanning the few people before him, Lin Feng's brows tightened immediately.

Since the opponent just crushed that scroll, constructing this spatial seal that even he could not break, Lin Feng's heart sank.

From this attitude, it seems they come with ill intent!

Especially when he realized the danger of the surrounding spatial seal, Lin Feng felt even more so.

After all, without this seal, if he couldn't defeat them, he could still flee immediately.

But now, the two of them are directly trapped inside and cannot get out.

Judging by the strength of this spatial seal, its creator's power is probably not below a six-star peak Dou Saint, possibly even reaching the seven-star level!

Of course, if it were merely a spatial seal constructed by a pure six-star or seven-star Dou Saint, he and Zi Yan still have a way to resolve it.

But given the current situation, this spatial seal seems to have been specially made for the two of them.

It not only blocks the connection between this place and the outside world, but all space within the seal's range is completely frozen.

Unless they are given an undisturbed environment to focus on breaking it, otherwise the two of them simply cannot break this space.

At the same time, the four Stone Clan members had their identities exposed, but they did not refute; they merely stared at Lin Feng with fiery eyes.

Immediately, the burly man who first appeared spoke in a muffled voice: "It seems Shi Kui didn't lie; you, kid, have indeed made astonishing progress in strength in less than a year, not at all like someone who relies on the Bodhi Heart to become a Dou Saint."

"However, your strength seems not the three-star Dou Saint that Shi Kui mentioned, but a five-star Dou Saint!"

As he spoke, the burly man's expression also turned shocked.

However, mixed in was a strong greed.

According to earlier analyses of those ancient texts, after absorbing the Bodhi Heart, Lin Feng's strength should be around one-star Dou Saint.

But now, in less than a year after breaking through to Dou Saint, he has risen extremely fast from one-star Dou Saint to the current five-star Dou Saint.

If left to develop for a while longer, they might even catch up to him.

Thinking of this, the burly man's desire to obtain Lin Feng's secret of strength increase became ever more resolute.

After all, this secret that enables a one-star Dou Saint to break through to five-star Dou Saint might also allow them to create more experts for the Stone Clan.

At the very least, it could let their clan chief break through from early seven-star Dou Saint to a higher realm.

By then, the Stone Clan might be able to catch up to the Flame and Thunder Clans in one fell swoop.

As for the Stone Clan woman who had previously seen Lin Feng, a four-star Dou Saint, she too stood dazed on the spot, her eyes filled with fervent heat.

After all, only a few short months have passed since her previous meeting with Lin Feng.

And to be able to make Lin Feng, a three-star Dou Saint, jump two stars in such a short time—if she hadn't had some extraordinary encounter, she wouldn't believe it even if beaten to death!

At the same time, as the Stone Clan members sized up Lin Feng, he too frowned and asked: "I have no grudge with your Stone Clan, after all. Moreover, I see that this person's strength is at least six-star Dou Saint; you are violating the ancient inter-clan rule that forbids anyone at five-star Dou Saint or above from acting arbitrarily."

"Hahaha"

Hearing that, the burly man seemed to have heard a joke and burst out laughing loudly.

Moreover, the harder he laughed, the more energetic he became; finally, he even laughed so hard he bent forward and backward, slapping his thick thigh.

Seeing the opponent's reaction, Lin Feng and Zi Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of puzzlement, somewhat confused.

As for the man, after laughing for a long while, he gradually eased his smile, lowered his head that had been tilted back from laughter, and fixed his gaze on Lin Feng.

Immediately, he spoke with a mocking tone: "Rules? Are you joking?"

"The Spirit Clan mysteriously disappeared, while our Stone Clan's strength, compared to the Spirit Clan that can play with souls, communicate with all things, and control magical beasts for their own use, is still lacking. Although we now choose to ally with the Soul Clan, the murderer who made the Spirit Clan vanish from under everyone's nose could also possibly make our Stone Clan disappear from under the Soul Clan's nose."

As soon as his words fell, the man continued: "Our safety now has no guarantee; staying alive has become a problem, and we could be wiped out at any moment. Under this endless shadow of extermination, you come to us talking about rules?"

"Speak to me of those empty promises that cannot give us security?"

Having said that, the man immediately seemed to be venting the grievances he had suffered since the Spirit Clan's disappearance, and he shouted at Lin Feng and Zi Yan: "You tell rules to me, who could be killed by that murderer at any moment, and to our Stone Clan people?"

"Hey kid, did you wake up?"

The further he spoke, the more force he used.

And when he uttered the last few words, perhaps due to excessive force, his neck veins bulged instantly, and a faint reddish hue appeared on his stone-gray face.

Lin Feng, suddenly shouted at, also frowned.

Yeah, I've been busy watching the battles between the ancient clans and the Soul Clan these days.

But I overlooked that, in this situation, the Stone Clan, constantly facing extermination danger, might be unable to withstand this pressure and cause even more chaotic events, thereby affecting the entire Dou Qi Continent.

But seeing the opponent pour all his anger onto him, Lin Feng frowned again, his face solemn, and said: "If you're unwilling, if you want to eliminate that potential murderer, go find the murderer instead of coming here to cause me trouble."

"After all, I can't solve your problems."

As he spoke, Lin Feng's complexion gradually became somewhat irritable.

Although he could understand that the Stone Clan people's heads are pressed by that intangible pressure of extermination, this is not a reason for them to cause him trouble.

Having just finished speaking, the woman called Shi Kui by the burly man spread her hands and said to Lin Feng: "Kid, don't ask about all that messy information. I think you'd better hand over the secret of your rapid breakthrough, or else you'll inevitably suffer a bit later."

After saying that, the woman named Shi Kui, together with the two behind her, immediately stepped forward and looked down at Lin Feng, their eyes full of confidence.

After all, they have dispatched such numbers and quality of Dou Saint experts for this operation; could they possibly fail to deal with Lin Feng?

"Looks like you guys aren't planning to let this go easily. Then I want to see if your lineup of one six-star mid-stage Dou Saint, one four-star early-stage Dou Saint, plus two two-star Dou Saints can take us down."

Seeing this situation, Lin Feng's heart sank sharply, and at the same time he gazed solemnly at the opposing few, his tone gradually filling with killing intent.

Seeing the opponent like this, he knows they regard his secret of such rapid strength increase as the Stone Clan's sole chance to reduce their likelihood of extermination.

If he doesn't kill the opponent here, and those few people later go back and leak something, he expects even greater trouble.

Just as his words fell, a five-star mid-stage Dou Saint aura suddenly burst forth from Lin Feng's body.

In the blink of an eye, that five-star Dou Saint-level mighty pressure suddenly crushed down on those few Stone Clan members.

Zi Yan, seeing that they were about to fight, also raised her small hands and rubbed them together, producing a creaking sound.

At the same time, she angrily shouted at those Stone Clan people: "You few ugly freaks who don't even look human, not only dare to intercept us, but also dare to force Lin Feng to work—I think you're tired of living!"

"Hmph."

Suddenly struck by Lin Feng's five-star Dou Saint aura, the two Stone Clan Two-Star Dou Sheng were instantly hit as if by a huge hammer, and were blown back hundreds of meters in an instant.

As for that female four-star Dou Saint, she also frowned, secretly circulating her Battle Qi to counteract this pressure.

"Heh, mere tricks."

Seeing that, the burly man immediately smirked, lightly waved his palm, and instantly sent out a soft force that neutralized Lin Feng's aura for those two two-star Dou Saints.

Seeing this, Lin Feng was not disappointed; instead, his eyes filled with fighting spirit as he said: "Since breaking through to five-star Dou Saint, I have never fought a six-star Dou Saint. Today, let me see just how capable you, this six-star Dou Saint, really are!"

As his words fell, the Heavenly Flame within his body suddenly exploded.

At the same time, a bronze-colored flame mark appeared on his forehead, flashing with dazzling light.

At the same time, the Heavenly Flame within his body, under strong pressure, suddenly turned into strands of bronze fire that followed meridians similar to the Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Changes, rapidly circulating inside him.

"Heavenly Flame, connect heaven and earth!"

As Lin Feng's words slowly trailed out, the pores on his body suddenly all opened at this moment, and streams of tiny flames immediately burst forth from them.
