394 Memory of Zhong Lifeng

"That black mist is too weird. It can ignore our internal energy and kill us directly. No one of us is strong enough to stand in front of it," Elder Fang shook his head.

Just when everyone was hopeless, the entire Devil Banning Temple trembled violently as if an earthquake was occurring.

Elder Fang and another elder looked at each other and hurriedly rushed to the fifth floor of the temple.

By the time the two elders came back, the temple was still vibrating.

"The shield is disappearing," Elder Fang said with an ugly face.

"How could this be?"

"Wasn't it said that the shield would disappear two days later?"

"We're doomed now."

"…"

The disciples in the temple at this moment were composed of core disciples, inner disciples, and outer disciples.

The core disciples and inner disciples had higher strength than average, so they could control their emotion to a certain extent. But the outer disciples were not so good, some of them broke down on the spot and cried silently.

"Boom!"

Out of nowhere, a loud bang appeared, and the vibration of the temple stopped.

The atmosphere turned even more tense. The crying and discussion stopped, only a sense of suffocation loomed.

Their eyes subconsciously turned to the closed entrance of the temple, as if the source of the explosion came from there.

It really was.

"Boom!"

The door of the temple suddenly opened, the warm light of the sun broke in and fell on everyone.

At the entrance, a white figure stood silently with his hands behind his back and watched them.

This was an unfamiliar face, but the aura he emitted was gentle and noble. One look was enough to confirm that he was a senior expert and he had no malice against them.

The two elders hurriedly came forward.

"Senior, you are…?"

"This seat is an acquaintance of Xu Hailong. Now, that black dragon is dead, so rest assured. If there's nothing else, this seat will leave now."

Yang Song said this quickly and disappeared on the spot.

The two elders looked at each other and stepped out of the Devil Banning Temple.

The black mist had disappeared, and only corpses were seen lying around. A feeling of emptiness swelled up in the two elders' hearts.

So many disciples died this time.

The strength of a sect basically lay in the elders, but it was also indispensable without disciples.

'This is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Sky Cloud Sword Sect.'

The two elders sighed.

At the same time, they had no reason to not believe in Yang Song's words. On the one hand, if he had bad intentions, he would've killed them a long time ago. On the other hand, they really sensed that there was no danger around.

Being able to disperse the black mist was enough to prove his strength, such a powerful person should not be interested in weak people like them.

The elders called the remaining disciples out of the temple and ordered them to clean up the mess.

…

Yang Song went back to the Sunflower City.

The trouble of the Sky Cloud Sword Sect this time was temporarily solved. The reason why it was "temporarily" was that Yang Song felt that this matter was not really simple.

He had no evidence to prove his hunch now, but maybe he would soon be able to get the answer he wanted.

With a thought from him, a ball of white light materialized and floated above his fingertip. This was none other than the soul of Zhong Lifeng.

Yang Song exerted force and pinched this white soul between his fingers.

Immediately, a weak spiritual force that did not belong to him entered his body and went ahead to strength his soul. But that was not all, many memories that did not belong to him also appeared out of nowhere in his Sea of Consciousness.

Yang Song sorted out the out-of-order memory easily and found everything he wanted to know.

It contained everything, from the birth of Zhong Lifeng to his final moment of life.

He was born in a rich but chaotic family in the north part of the Great Qin Kingdom. His father was the Zhong Family's head, his mother was the third wife. Since there was the third, of course, there were the first, second, fourth, and fifth as well.

With so many wives, the Zhong family was naturally big. Like the typical big families, the five wives naturally did not get along with each other.

Zhong Lifeng was the only son of his mother, but it was a pity that his mother was frail physically. Zhong Lifeng, as the child of a weak woman, was bullied everywhere in the family.

Knowing her situation well, Zhong Lifeng's mother did not have any ambition, she only wanted her son to live peacefully. But subjected to bullying for so long, Zhong Lifeng longed for the most was not peace but power.

When he reached adulthood, Zhong Lifeng's mother finally could not hold on and died because of her disease.

Zhong Lifeng's days got worse. One day, he was framed by the first wife and was tortured. At his weakest state, he was thrown out and left alone in the wild.

Maybe his fate did not end there, an old woman saved him and treated him like her own son. Later, when she discovered the thunder element in her, she trained him to become a warrior of the Sky Cloud Sword Sect.

At some point, Zhong Lifeng was strong enough and went to resolved his grievances. He killed the entire Zhong family and from that moment on, the dark desire in him bloomed.

But it was not until two years ago that his dark-self became even more intense.

Countless bolts of thunder rained down from the mouth of the black dragon and enveloped the entire body of Yang Song.

The black thunder was too dense so that no one could see Yang Song's figure. Those guys of the Sky Cloud Sword Sect looked over nervously.

"Will he be okay?"

"What kind of thunder is this? Why is it so black?"

"Why does this thunder remind me of the Dark Thunder Forest?"

Some people came to a realization and looked terrified when they heard the question above.

"No way, that black thunder is not from the Dark Thunder Forest, right? After all, the Dark Thunder Forest is just below the cliff ahead."

"T-this…"

"You don't need to worry. Senior Yang is fine," the one who spoke was Elder Yong. He glanced at the position where Yang Song was and said this softly to everyone.

At this point, people were no longer interested in talking. They just looked at the battle anxiously and nervously.

…

Inside the black thunder, Yang Song was stunned by what he was feeling.

It was fine when the black thunder had not touched him, but when the black thunder and him really got into contact with each other, Yang Song was shocked by what he felt from the black thunder.

The energy and aura contained in the black thunder was something that Yang Song couldn't be more familiar with.

"Isn't this the aura of the Law Orb?"

Correct, whatever it was that Yang Song felt from the black thunder must have had something to do with the Law Orb.

If his guess was correct, it should be the Thunder Law Orb. However, even if Yang Song had never seen the power of the Thunder Law Orb, he was pretty sure that the one he was seeing was not the true thunder of the Thunder Law Orb.

In the black thunder, Yang Song felt another foreign and negative energy, and that energy infiltrated and contaminated the thunder of the Thunder Law Orb to a good extent.

Yang Song no longer had the mind to play with Zhong Lifeng anymore. Now, he only wanted the Thunder Law Orb.

He had no way to trace the whereabouts of the Thunder Law Orb, but the current situation couldn't be more favorable to him.

By tracing the direction of the energy of the black thunder, Yang Song could pinpoint the location of the Thunder Law Orb easily.

His gaze immediately penetrated the dense black thunder and fell on the dragon body of Zhong Lifeng.

Somehow, Zhong Lifeng had a heart palpitation and a sense of danger loomed over him. After transforming into a beast, his sense of danger was much stronger than before. So now, he did not dare to take it lightly at all.

Zhong Lifeng turned on his protective "mechanism" to the fullest and tried as best as he could to confront the upcoming danger.

"Not bad reaction you have there."

Just as Zhong Lifeng was in a tense spirit, a voice came from behind his back. He quickly twisted his head and looked behind.

He was terrified to see the person behind him. But then, he wasted no times with words and charged directly at the opponent.
