On the ground, the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm Invading Army and the Holy Wind Sect were locked in a deadly battle. Although the Holy Wind Sect’s members were weaker, they had the one-time use of Sound Demon One as a supplement, along with various special modern technological weapons. They fought admirably against the Invading Army, with both sides suffering casualties.

However, overall, the Holy Wind Sect was still at a disadvantage. Even with the Combined Attack Formation and other methods to make up for their lack of strength, the gap with the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm was simply too vast. As time passed, the Holy Wind Sect’s situation worsened each day, causing great anxiety among its members. If this continued, the Immortal-Slaying Secret Realm wouldn’t hold for much longer.

The ground battle was already dire, but the war in the sky was even more brutal. Blood filled the entire space, and the rumbling noise was constant. The members of the Holy Wind Sect used the sect’s Combined Attack Formation taught by Lin Feng to face the enemy. This allowed many of those at the Human Immortal Realm to hold their ground. Although there were losses, the casualty ratio was one to three, showcasing a combat strength that astonished the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm Invading Army. They hadn’t expected Earth to resist so fiercely!

As for those above the Earth Immortal Realm, their battle was enough to obliterate the Earth. Thirty-two Inner Pavilion Elders of the Holy Wind Sect formed the Nine Directions Trigram Formation, taught by Lin Feng, against the enemy. Like a fleshy grindstone, they caused countless casualties among the Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses of the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm. However, there were simply too many of them in the Invading Army, numbering in the hundreds, creating a massive numerical gap. Four Inner Pavilion Elders died during this period, and everyone else was injured!

Even Ding Wan’er, leading the women in this campaign, played an immeasurable role. The formation formed by the women was extremely intimidating to the Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses of the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm. They even managed to kill as many as ten mid-stage Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses! Although they were also injured, they had plenty of elixirs for healing. In the intense battles of blood and fire, their growth was rapid. Although not as exaggerated as the coordination of the Inner Pavilion Elders, for them, it was already beyond imagination!

The battle here was already intense, but it was even more brutal in the high sky.

Fang Yan led the four Great Demon Venerables in a fierce struggle against the six Great Ancestors. The battle raged for days. The six Great Ancestors, relying on their formidable strength and having supreme Dharma Treasures, crushed Fang Yan, making him feel like coughing blood. If not for the assistance from the four Great Demon Venerables, he would have been dead long ago!

At this moment, Fang Yan was already covered in blood like a bloody man, and the four Great Demon Venerables were also heavily injured. Yet even so, they gritted their teeth and held on, waiting for Lin Feng’s return. Once Lin Feng returned, the battle situation would be saved!

The six Great Ancestors, meanwhile, were furious that their strength hadn’t yet secured victory. They were extremely anxious. For them, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity with Lin Feng injured and weakened. They feared that if Lin Feng’s strength were restored, it wouldn’t be Lin Feng who died, but them!

In an instant, the sky changed color, and the six Great Ancestors unleashed their full array of attacks, all with the sole purpose of killing Lin Feng in front of them! Yet, just as they were about to strike Lin Feng down, a figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Feng. With a wave of his sleeve, the six Great Ancestors were flung back like ragdolls, flying several miles before finally coming to a stop!

When they turned their gaze to the newcomer, the six Great Ancestors were instantly dumbfounded. How could there be two Lin Fengs in this world! For a moment, the six stood in the air, unsure of what to do, puzzled by the two Lin Fengs before them.

"You’re finally back, I almost couldn’t hold on. These old undying geezers are truly formidable. If it weren’t for the help of the four Great Demon Venerables, I wouldn’t have lasted this long," Fang Yan said, looking at Lin Feng with a bitter smile. He had maintained the battle situation, awaiting the true Lin Feng’s return, thus fulfilling his promise to the real Lin Feng.

"You take a rest. Leave the rest to me," Lin Feng said to the severely injured Fang Yan without further ado, offering a simple statement.

"Alright, I’ll leave it all to you then," Fang Yan replied, morphing back into his original form. Under the shocked gazes of the six Great Ancestors, he left the battlefield. Severely injured, his primary concern was to heal. He needed to return to the Heaven Demon Forest to find Fang Le’er and check on her situation while planning to bring her back to Earth.

The Redflame Dragon Wolf Beast and Thousand-Faced Nine-Tailed Fox, seeing Lin Feng’s return, breathed a sigh of relief. With Lin Feng back, everything would be fine. So, the two Great Demon Venerables, not wanting to fight anymore, dragged their severely injured bodies back into Fang Yan’s Space Ring for healing.

Meanwhile, the Purple Thunder Transforming Sky Dragon and Dark Flame Soul-Devouring Tiger approached Lin Feng. The two of them felt quite aggrieved—if Lin Feng had returned even a day later, their lives might have been forfeit. So at this moment, they didn’t have time to speak, hovering behind Lin Feng, gasping for breath, eager to see how Lin Feng would deal with those six damned old devilish figures.

What!

How is this possible!

Fang Yan... Fang Yan was actually Lin Feng’s doppelgänger!

...

The six Great Ancestors, having witnessed and heard the conversation between Lin Feng and Fang Yan firsthand, immediately understood the situation. So it wasn’t Lin Feng they were fighting earlier, but his doppelgänger! What surprised them even more was that Lin Feng’s doppelgänger was the legendary youth Fang Yan from the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm!

For a moment, the six great ancestors were dumbfounded. They had not in a million years expected that Fang Yan was actually Lin Feng’s doppelganger. The fact that even a doppelganger could be terrifying to such an extent was beyond anything they could have imagined. They thought to themselves, "Is Lin Feng even human? A mere doppelganger is enough to rival any one of us." After fighting for several days, only to realize they had merely been battling a doppelganger, they felt like vomiting blood!

At this moment, Lin Feng turned his gaze toward the six great ancestors and said coldly, "I’m giving you a way out—cease the fighting! Furthermore, everyone above the late stage of the Earth Immortal Realm must commit suicide. I can spare everyone else here; otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

Lin Feng’s voice was chilling, brimming with murderous intent. He had no goodwill toward these people from the Immortal Realm. They were invaders and had killed so many members of the Holy Wind Sect. The ground was already stained red, and if he hadn’t returned in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable. Under such circumstances, it was not excessive to kill them all!

"Lin Feng, who do you think you are, ordering us around? We all admit you’re formidable and that we’re no match for you, but have you ever considered, we’ve enlisted powerhouses from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Immortal Realm? There are still those who can suppress you!" Xiao Ke, upon hearing Lin Feng’s demand, was so furious he almost twisted his nose in anger and retorted angrily. To demand that they commit suicide—who knew what Lin Feng was thinking!

"Absolutely impossible!"

"Powerhouses from the Heavenly Immortal Realm are arriving soon!"

"Lin Feng, do you think we would come here without assurance?"

...

At this moment, the other five ancestors also shouted angrily. Lin Feng’s words had enraged them. They had already communicated with the Heavenly Immortal Realm powerhouses who had promised to join the battle at a certain time, which was why the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm’s army dared to press forward. Without such confidence, how could they recklessly invade Earth!

Hearing the six great ancestors boast like this, Lin Feng, instead of getting angry, merely smiled, shook his head, and said to the six, "Perhaps there were before, but now there aren’t any. Those five powerhouses from the Heavenly Immortal Realm you rely on have all been killed by me. Whether you believe it or not, it’s true! Moreover, even if there are other Heavenly Immortal Realm powerhouses, if they come, I will kill them just the same!"

"Lin Feng, you’re boasting way too much!"

"Lin Feng, who are you trying to fool with this talk!"

...

Upon hearing this, the six great ancestors thought Lin Feng was bluffing and all shouted angrily. No one would believe such words—claiming he had killed powerhouses from the Heavenly Immortal Realm. How could that be possible? Powerhouses from the Heavenly Immortal Realm were the strongest in the world. For Lin Feng alone to kill five—utterly impossible!

"Don’t believe me? You can try." Lin Feng looked at the six great ancestors with utter disdain and said.

Upon hearing this, the six great ancestors became furious and immediately took out their Communication Spirit Jades, trying to contact the five Heavenly Immortal Realm powerhouses. Yet to their shock, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t reach them. This immediately made the six of them panic, as their intuition told them that what Lin Feng said might actually be true. Otherwise, how could the five Heavenly Immortal Realm powerhouses possibly have no news at all!

For a moment, the faces of the six great ancestors turned extremely grim. Their gazes toward Lin Feng were filled with murderous intent. If it weren’t for Lin Feng, how could Earth possibly withstand the Immortal Realm’s army? If it weren’t for Lin Feng, how could the Immortal Realm’s army suffer such severe losses? Having reached this point, how could they be willing to cease fighting and commit suicide!

At this moment, the six great ancestors wished they could tear Lin Feng to pieces and devour him. Their eyes were filled with blood. If looks could kill, Lin Feng would have been sliced to pieces by their glances long ago!

"Lin Feng, I will fight you to the death!"

Suddenly, an ancestor with a fiery temper could no longer endure the humiliation. With an angry shout, and without any hesitation, he reversed his meridians and charged towards Lin Feng. He knew he could not be a match for Lin Feng but intended to self-detonate to severely injure Lin Feng. With his Immortal Realm Peak’s strength, if he self-detonated, even if Lin Feng was a powerhouse from the Heavenly Immortal Realm, he would surely not withstand it. As long as Lin Feng got injured, the others could kill Lin Feng. This was the best solution at present!
