Chapter 189 Follow-up Arrangements
If he had known all along that provoking Ling Feng would lead to this outcome, one wonders what he would have thought.
Perhaps he will be filled with regret, lamenting his recklessness and foolishness at the time;
Or he might fall into deep self-blame and reflect on his actions.
However, regardless of the circumstances, Yun Yilan has now perished with the storm of swords, with no chance to turn back, and the fate of Burning Incense Valley is also obvious.
All of this makes one sigh that the ups and downs of life are truly unpredictable, and a small choice can lead to unexpected consequences.
Although Yun Yilan's career has come to an end, the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Formation he set up still exists.
This grand formation was maintained by the powerful energy of the Xuanhuo Altar in the forbidden area of Fenxiang Valley. Therefore, even though Yun Yilan disappeared, the formation did not dissipate; it simply lost its commander.
Not long after Yun Yilan disappeared, the eight fire dragons in the void condensed again.
However, after this gathering, since no one gave the order to attack, the eight fire dragons simply hovered aimlessly in the void, showing no intention of attacking Ling Feng.
Although they will not launch an attack against him, Ling Feng naturally cannot let them develop freely.
After all, these fire dragons hovered in the void, like the Sword of Damocles hanging overhead, threatening to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
Without hesitation, Ling Feng activated the sword storm of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, launching a fierce attack on the eight fire dragons swirling in the void.
Lacking a leader and lacking intelligence, these fire dragons could only helplessly hover in the void, allowing the storm of blades to mercilessly annihilate them.
However, to Ling Feng's surprise, the eight fire dragons began to coalesce again after they dissipated.
However, the fire dragon that has been re-formed this time has reduced its power to the peak of the Refining Spirit Returning to Emptiness realm.
At this time, Ling Feng had not yet figured out the mystery, and therefore was unaware of the current situation.
But he couldn't stand idly by, so he had to start killing the fire dragons again.
After repeating this process three times, perhaps the secret technique had expired, and the eight fire dragons finally returned to the third level of the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness realm.
Although they have returned to their original state, due to excessive energy consumption, their state has become somewhat unstable, and there is even a faint tendency for it to continue to decline.
After experiencing several battles, Ling Feng gradually grasped the key to it.
At this moment, when he saw that the eight fire dragons had fallen back to their original state and were still circling blankly in the void, he understood.
Ling Feng looked at the eight fire dragons that had condensed again, still hovering listlessly in the void as before. He knew that they could no longer pose a threat to him, so he decided to put them aside for the time being.
He knew that the most urgent task was to resolve the matter of Burning Incense Valley and not allow any potential dangers to remain or escape.
Although Yun Yilan has been eliminated by the Blade Storm, there are still many remaining forces in the Incense Valley, and Ling Feng does not want to leave any future troubles for himself.
At present, Ling Feng plans to directly expand the range of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation to cover the entire Incense Burning Valley.
This makes solving the problem much easier.
As Ling Feng poured a large amount of magic power into the array plate, the Zhuxian Sword Array expanded rapidly in all directions like lightning, enveloping the entire Fenxiang Valley in a short moment.
At this moment, Ling Feng no longer felt any pity and decisively used his sword storm to wipe out all the remaining people in Burning Incense Valley.
In fact, even if Ling Feng didn't take action, the Incense Valley would hardly cause any trouble now; the remaining people simply couldn't stir up any waves.
After all, now that the Valley Master of Burning Incense Valley, Yun Yilan, is dead, there are only a few small fry left, and the strongest one is just an elder at the third level of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation.
Moreover, there are only three people left in the entire Burning Incense Valley at the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation stage; the rest are disciples at the Essence Refining and Qi Transformation stage.
These people vary in strength, but none of them are to be feared.
However, although the remaining people of Burning Incense Valley could not cause any trouble, Ling Feng did not let his guard down.
After all, Ling Feng knew the principle that failing to kill a snake would only result in harm to the snake itself.
Therefore, in order to avoid leaving any future troubles for himself, he decided to take decisive action to completely eliminate the potential threat.
So he unleashed his powerful Blade Storm skill, mercilessly slaughtering the remaining members of Burning Incense Valley.
As the fierce sword energy raged, the remaining members of Burning Incense Valley turned into wisps of blood mist that drifted into the air.
Thus, the Incense Valley, one of the three leading sects of the righteous path, has been officially removed from the list of sects. From now on, the Incense Valley will only exist in the memories of the people.
Perhaps many years from now, Incense Valley will become a legendary sect, praised and remembered by people.
However, after successfully dealing with the Incense Valley, Ling Feng began to feel a headache.
After all, although the Incense Valley has a thousand faults, it is an indisputable fact that they guard the key passage from the Hundred Thousand Mountains to the Divine Continent.
Although Ling Feng has now annihilated Fenxiang Valley in a fit of vengeance, who will guard the Ten Thousand Mountains in the future?
If no one guards these Hundred Thousand Mountains, the monsters within will inevitably go out and wreak havoc on the Divine Continent.
Although Ling Feng was decisive in killing, he was not one to indiscriminately kill innocent people. He also did not want the innocent ordinary people in the Divine Continent to suffer a catastrophe because of him.
But now that he has destroyed the Incense Valley, who should guard it?
Moreover, the person guarding this place must be exceptionally capable; otherwise, they would not be able to perform this job.
After much thought, Ling Feng remembered the nine powerful demonic beasts he had subdued in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
They should be able to do a good job guarding this place.
Although this arrangement is somewhat like having rats guard a grain warehouse, Ling Feng is not worried that they will steal from the warehouse.
Because he had already signed a master-servant contract with these demon beast overlords, if they harbored any ill intentions, they would be instantly annihilated with a mere thought from Ling Feng.
However, this is only Ling Feng's current plan, and he will not leave these nine powerful demonic beasts here forever.
Once suitable candidates are found in the future, Ling Feng will naturally use them to replace these demonic beasts.
After making the decision, Ling Feng shared his thoughts with Bi Yao and the others.
However, they remained noncommittal about Ling Feng's plan.
After all, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox and other demonic beasts belong to the demon race and do not have much of a concept of the common people.
Biyao, on the other hand, came from the demonic path. If she hadn't been deeply in love with Ling Feng, she wouldn't have stayed by his side. As for the fate of the world, what did it have to do with her?
Unable to obtain effective advice from them, Ling Feng ultimately had to make the decision himself.
