Chapter 520: Demonic Beast Siege!

Soon, Ling Feng had memorized the Art of Devouring Flame. He then wrapped the Fire of the Earth\'s Core around his hand and began refining the leftover Earth-Fire True Essence.

Indeed, just as described in the Art of Devouring Flame, Ling Feng\'s Fire of the Earth\'s Core started to merge with the characteristics of the Earth-Fire True Essence, undergoing a wondrous transformation.

"What a miraculous martial art!"

Ling Feng\'s eyes twitched, but knowing this place wasn\'t safe to linger, he collected the remaining Earth-Fire True Essence into the Five Elements Heavenly Palace and prepared to leave.

"Master!"

Zifeng reluctantly jumped up and landed on Ling Feng\'s shoulder, chuckling while saying, "Don\'t worry, Master. I mainly absorbed the heat from the earth vein earlier. I\'ve stored all of the Earth-Fire True Essence, ready for your use anytime!"

"Haha, Zifeng, you\'re the best!"

Ling Feng felt a surge of gratitude. This is what a loyal spirit pet should be!

Upon hearing that Zifeng had stored a large amount of Earth-Fire True Essence, the despicable donkey\'s eyes immediately sparkled with greed.

Ling Feng shot a glare at the donkey and said in a hateful tone, "Despicable donkey, don\'t even think about getting any more Earth-Fire True Essence!"

"Tsk, are you questioning the integrity of this divine beast?" The despicable donkey shrugged sulkily, but it had indeed absorbed the most Earth-Fire True Essence. With this essence and some diligent cultivation, it could restore its strength to the demon emperor level.

"How dare you talk about integrity?" Ling Feng rolled his eyes. "You\'re not even human!"

This despicable donkey, let alone human integrity, didn\'t even have donkey integrity!

"Hmph, this divine beast needs to hibernate for a while. Kid, unless it\'s urgent, don\'t disturb me, or the first thing I\'ll do when I wake up is bite you!"

"Got it." Ling Feng nodded slightly, understanding that the donkey needed the Earth-Fire True Essence\'s power to repair its demonic core. With a wave of his hand, he stored the despicable donkey into the Five Elements Heavenly Palace.

For a while, he would lack the protection of a demon king, but once the despicable donkey awakened, it would be a demon emperor-level ally!

"It\'s about time. Yes, it\'s time to leave!"

After collecting all the Earth-Fire True Essence, Ling Feng retraced his steps and left the so-called Forbidden Zone.

...

Outside the Forbidden Zone\'s fence, Wang Tianlin was still waiting.

When he finally saw Ling Feng emerge, he breathed a sigh of relief. A smile spread across his face as he eagerly approached and said, "Little Feng, you finally came out."

"Yes." Ling Feng nodded, taking out a large handful of flowers and herbs from his dimensional pouch. "Senior Wang, these are for you. Take them, and use them as you see fit."

"These... These are too precious!"

Wang Tianlin\'s eyes widened at the sight of the dozens of high-grade spirit herbs. Selling these would instantly multiply the Tianlin Chamber of Commerce\'s wealth several times over!

"Just take them."

Ling Feng smiled. Compared to what he had gained, these were small benefits. Besides, if Wang Tianlin hadn\'t given him a spot, he might not have had such an opportunity. This was a way to repay the favor.

"Also, I suggest you sell these herbs in other cities." Ling Feng smiled faintly.

"Understood, understood."

Wang Tianlin nodded repeatedly, storing the herbs carefully. Then, he and Ling Feng quickly made their way back towards the medicinal garden.

When the two left the medicinal garden, time was pressing, and they left just at the last minute.

As the last batch of cultivators left the garden, an elder from the lord\'s mansion drew out a secret key, closed the garden, and stood on a high platform shouting, "For everyone\'s safety, do not enter the Sky Demon Forest in the coming months, or bear the consequences yourself."

The elder paused and continued, "The city lord will soon issue a notice, imposing martial law on the city gates. For the next three months, Iron Wolf City will only allow exits, no entries. Once you leave, do not return!"

As soon as the elder finished speaking, a wave of dissatisfaction erupted from the crowd.

"Damn it, what\'s the city lord up to!? Three months? Who can stay in the Sky Demon Forest for three months? They clearly don\'t want us to leave!"

"Yeah, if we don\'t go out to hunt demons, we\'ll be stuck in the city while eating through our resources. Isn\'t that just waiting to die?"

"The city lord must give a reasonable explanation!"

The crowd was incensed. Most of the forces in Iron Wolf City depended on the Sky Demon Forest for their livelihood. Without hunting demonic beasts, where would they get their cultivation resources? The city lord\'s order was cutting off their income.

The elder from the lord\'s mansion snorted coldly and shouted, "A sixth-tier demonic beast has appeared in the outskirts of the Sky Demon Forest. Are you sure you still want to go out?"

"Six... sixth-tier?"

Everyone gulped nervously. A sixth-tier demonic beast was equivalent to a human Spiritual Sea Realm expert!

For these martial artists, most of whom were still in the Transformation Realm, a Spiritual Sea Realm expert was like a god!

"A demon king?"

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. What happened in the Nanjiang demon domain? Why would a demon king-level expert suddenly appear in the outskirts of the Sky Demon Forest?

Such high-level demonic beasts would usually only appear deep within the demon domain!

Regardless, Ling Feng had to go to the demon domain. With the Demon-Transforming Pill and elemental herb, he could disguise himself as a member of the demon race and openly appear before their experts.

"Senior Wang, let\'s head back."

Ling Feng had a preliminary plan in mind. It was almost time for him to set out for the legendary demon race\'s sacred land, Heavenly Demon City.

Upon returning to the Tianlin Chamber of Commerce, Ling Feng immediately went to his room to inventory his gains.

Besides the pile of various spirit herbs, the biggest gain today was the Earth-Fire True Essence. Unfortunately, it wasn\'t useful for opening his meridian gates, but if he could upgrade his Fire of the Earth\'s Core to the Earth Vein\'s True Fire, his strength would take a significant leap.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Suddenly, there was an urgent knock on the door. "Little Feng, t-trouble!"

Ling Feng opened his eyes and, with a wave of his hand, opened the door.

"Senior Wang, what\'s going on?" Ling Feng asked, seeing Wang Tianlin panting heavily and looking alarmed.

"After much inquiry, I found out that just a couple of days ago, a large number of low-tier demonic beasts appeared in the Sky Demon Forest and surrounded several cities, including Iron Wolf City. It\'s a good thing we came back a few days early, or we wouldn\'t have been able to get back into the city."

"Demonic beasts surrounding the city?" Ling Feng was stunned. "Is it a beast tide?"

"No, these demonic beasts seem organized and are strictly controlled by the demon race. This is serious. Not only the city lord but also the elders from the Hunter\'s Guild are involved in negotiations with the demon race."

Wang Tianlin continued worriedly, "The demon race has a much stronger bloodline than ordinary demonic beasts. They usually only appear deep in the Sky Demon Forest and rarely in the outskirts of the demon domain."

"Things are getting more interesting."

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. He had been worried about finding the demon race, but now there was a large number of them right outside the city, saving him a lot of trouble!
