The Lightning Bird poses no problem for a cultivator of the Pursue Heart State, gliding fearlessly across the sky.

This Demon Hunter barely executed two techniques before being jointly attacked by Ling Zhenfei and the Lightning Bird.

Ling Zhenfei's Northern Spiritual Energy was naturally unstoppable by the foreign races. Struck down by Ling Zhenfei's blade, the entire figure plummeted towards the ground.

The foreign race fell in free fall.

However, the Lightning Bird didn't intend to let him off so easily. Flapping its wings, it quickly reached the falling foreign race and clawed at him.

The Lightning Bird's huge claws were exceedingly powerful, akin to two iron hooks, leaving a huge wound on the foreign race.

Ling Zhenfei also swung his sword at the foreign race once more.

The foreign race's descent sped up, crashing down onto the ground with a bang, its fate unknown.

Ling Zhenfei had no time to deal with the foreign races, urging the Lightning Bird to fly onward.

Finding Murong Liuqing was now the most important task.

Flying forward for a distance, Ling Zhenfei sensed several foreign races following, attracted by his Northern Spiritual Energy, leaving him quite shocked. It was unexpected to find so many Demon Hunters in this mountain range.

These Demon Hunters either flew through the air or ran on the ground, moving at extraordinary speeds.

However, Ling Zhenfei paid them no mind and continued ahead.

Ling Zhenfei kept unleashing his Divine Sense for reconnaissance work.

Ling Zhenfei's actions acted like the siren on a police car, serving as a method to alarm the enemy.

If Murong Liuqing could perceive it now, it would both encourage herself and intimidate the adversary.

Ling Zhenfei hoped the method would be effective, when suddenly he sensed a surge of Northern Spiritual Energy from a distant mountain hollow.

Ling Zhenfei was startled, feeling that a battle involving Northern Spiritual Energy was taking place.

He also sensed a significant gathering of Northern Spiritual Energy below, indicating an ongoing conflict.

Considering this, Ling Zhenfei urged the Lightning Bird to fly towards that direction.

The location, within a mountain hollow, was rather secluded. Only by flying low could one clearly see the events inside.

Upon arrival, he saw three individuals being attacked by several foreign races.

The three human cultivators appeared overburdened, bearing injuries in varying degrees. The Demon Hunters were evidently stronger, launching incredibly fierce attacks.

Ling Zhenfei identified one of them as Murong Liuqing.

Initially, Ling Zhenfei somewhat misunderstood Murong Liuqing, perceiving her as astonishingly stubborn upon arrival – stubborn to an extent.

Initially, Ling Zhenfei interpreted this as Murong Liuqing representing Wuliang Mountain, believing she needed to perform certain tasks.

However, on both occasions, Murong Liuqing assisted him, showing she was respectable, and at least she believed in him.

Within the foreign races, there existed a master-pupil dynamic; Ling Zhenfei had encountered such before.

The master had yet to act, sending only his disciples to attack Murong Liuqing's group of three while he stood with hands clasped.

Suddenly, the master looked skyward, noticing Ling Zhenfei's approach.

With a sudden motion, he wielded a long blade, swiftly striking towards Murong Liuqing.

Murong Liuqing was under intense attack from one Demon Hunter and already quite weak when the long blade thrust towards her.

In haste, Murong Liuqing launched a stream of Northern Spiritual Energy to defend, managing to block the long blade.

Boom!

Murong Liuqing was immediately knocked away, collapsing some distance away.

The other two faced similar outcomes; the long blade struck them down after hitting Murong Liuqing, causing them to fall to the ground.

From afar, Ling Zhenfei sensed the explosive Northern Spiritual Energy, urging the Lightning Bird faster.

With a flap of its wings, the Lightning Bird reached nearby, witnessing the imminent assault on the fallen three.

Ling Zhenfei was anxious, having hurried over with much effort, unwilling to return in vain.

Thinking of this, Ling Zhenfei released his Tang sword towards those individuals.

Perhaps due to urgency, the Tang sword was astonishingly responsive, quickly flying forth and slashing towards the few Demon Hunters.

The Tang sword, imbued with Northern Spiritual Energy, executed techniques akin to those Ling Zhenfei performed manually.

Ling Zhenfei was greatly astonished, finding this an extraordinary sensation.

If combat could always be conducted this way from afar, risk of injury would be minimized.

Yet, those cultivators weren't mere pushovers either, immediately resisting.

Ling Zhenfei unleashed his Boundless Blade Technique; airborne himself, but his blade was already attacking from afar.

A single blade flew across the sky, elegantly delivering a highly formidable technique, its maneuvers fluid and techniques sophisticated, all accompanied by potent Northern Spiritual Energy.

Ling Zhenfei continued using several Boundless Blade Techniques back-to-back, causing those few to retreat repeatedly.

Ling Zhenfei was immensely thrilled, this being his first time using a Heart-pursuing Item in combat.

Succeeding in driving them back, Ling Zhenfei landed beside Murong Liuqing.

Addressing Murong Liuqing, he asked, "Miss Murong, are you alright?"

Murong Liuqing gazed at Ling Zhenfei incredulously, evidently surprised he arrived alone, astonishingly capable.

Ling Zhenfei's aura was now exceptionally distinct, leaving Murong Liuqing impressed.

"That old fellow is incredibly powerful; be cautious."

Ling Zhenfei knew Murong Liuqing referred to the elder Demon Hunter, whom he had already noted was exceptional.

Ling Zhenfei turned to look at those individuals.

These Demon Hunters were rather decent in appearance, human-like to an extent, unlike some earlier terrifying ones.

Resembling humans generally, save for their slightly hooked noses and metallic shines.

These four eyed Ling Zhenfei, clearly somewhat perplexed.

They had all seen Ling Zhenfei descend from the Lightning Bird.

"Unexpected another one wanting to die came along, very amusing indeed."

One of them smugly addressed Ling Zhenfei with disdain.

Ling Zhenfei replied, "I'm not here to die; I'm here to rescue people."

They laughed aloud, saying, "You didn't even bother to ask, people have never been rescued from us."

Ling Zhenfei retorted, "What arrogance! I suggest you step aside, let your elder take the stage, save wasting my time."

Naturally, Ling Zhenfei referred to the old Demon Hunter.

These young ones, with their early-stage Pursue Heart State, were no match for Ling Zhenfei.
