Chapter 004 Archive

The rudimentary bow and arrow struck Zhou Qingfeng first, and the threatening attack activated the heart-shaped stone necklace, causing a shield to appear to protect his safety. He then lunged straight ahead, disregarding any opponent, and in a breath, plunged off the cliff, falling straight down.

Zhou Qingfeng dashed into the cave and returned in the blink of an eye. He hurriedly ran down the slope, and the broken knife in his hand had somehow been replaced by a gleaming sharp sword

What Zhou Qingfeng did not know was that the heart-shaped stone necklace not only could activate the shield to save his life, but also blocked the perception and tracking of the dragon's prophetic magic. As long as he could escape a certain distance, he would be safe and sound

The enraged dragon that burst forth lost its reason. It roared in astonishment and fury: "You despicable crawling insects, not only have you intruded into my lair in Alatis, insulted my fiancée, but you even set an ambush outside to prepare to attack me?"

Seizing the sword, removing the chain, kissing the face, all accomplished in one go

The villains sent Zhou Qingfeng to test the mood of the dragon in the cave; if the dragon was in a good mood, he would be rewarded, but if not, he would be turned to ash. For Zhou Qingfeng, this process had lasted hundreds or even thousands of times, but for them, it was all the first time.

But when he fell from the treetops onto the thick layer of decayed leaves on the ground, he immediately got up, enduring the pain that made him feel as if his whole body was falling apart, and quickly ran deeper into the woods

The evil dragon extended its claw to pick up the crooked, inferior arrow from the ground, and with a snap, broke it into two pieces. In a fit of anger mixed with mockery, it shouted, "Do you think such trifles can harm the great Alathis? You are seeking your own demise!"

The villains had no time to react, as Zhou Qingfeng had already run behind them. Instead, a deafening roar of anger erupted from within the cave, as a massive dragon drilled its way out, immediately spotting the villains armed with clubs and drawn bows.

After a dozen seconds, the ugly old man arrived on schedule with his men. They rushed out of the woods in a frenzy, intending to capture Zhou Qingfeng. However, when they got within two or three meters, Zhou Qingfeng continued to climb up the slope of over ten meters and dashed into the cave.

Starting from the resurrected hillside, he entered the dark woods, with a dozen thugs closely following behind Zhou Qingfeng. He turned back to take a look, only to see a series of false smiles. He was very familiar with these dozen or so individuals, having engaged in combat with each of them dozens or even hundreds of times.

Now, if a raid were to occur, Zhou Qingfeng is confident that he could eliminate two or three of them in the blink of an eye with the broken knife in his hand. He might even be able to fight to the death against the ugly old man who serves as the leader—he has lost count of how many times he has died. In battle, both his ferocity and skills have significantly improved.

... ...

There is no need to think too much; today is certainly a day of extremely poor mood

At the bottom of the cliff, Uncle Zhou fell from a height of one hundred meters and landed on the crown of a tree. Although he had protective gear, he was still disoriented and dizzy, nearly losing consciousness.

At the beginning, Zhou Qingfeng could only compete with this group of villains for one or two rounds. No matter how accurately he calculated and anticipated, the number of opponents was too great; he could neither defeat them nor escape.

Who is that guy? Why did he suddenly come out and what does he want? How come his movements are so skilled? Where did he run off to? Is he still alive?

Zhou Qingfeng ran approximately one hundred meters, quickly scraping away the leaf litter on the ground and burrowing into it. In no time, he could hear the howling roar of flapping wings from above, as well as the sound of dragon breath being unleashed—that was the evil dragon discovering the secret of his fall from the cliff

The entire process was devoid of malice and danger, and the protective shield of the guardian necklace did not activate. The woman remained dazed, allowing events to unfold as they would; she only vaguely remembered that the one who kissed her was a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old. When he rushed in, he was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he was extremely excited.

Each time he is resurrected, Zhou Qingfeng has little time to react. However, this time he finally sees hope

Watching the furious dragon torment the souls of the wicked, the young woman leaned against the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, her eyes gazing towards the cliff that soared over one hundred meters high on one side of the cave

At the entrance of the cave on the slope, a beautiful young woman stands alone. She is also unclear about what is happening, only knowing that she is staring blankly at the sky outside the cave when suddenly a man rushes in

The villains would definitely not pursue, all standing at the edge of the cliff, blankly watching Zhou Qingfeng rush to his death. They were the rogues from the nearby village of Longchao, who had inadvertently learned of the existence of the evil dragon and provided it with food and entertainment.

With a breath of dragon fire, the bewildered dozen or so villains were all incinerated. The evil dragon, not satisfied with merely burning the provokers to death, stepped forward to stomp on them several times, even extracting their souls to torment them repeatedly, listening to the endless screams of these wretches.

It is unclear how much time has passed, but Zhou Qingfeng has actually fallen asleep beneath the thick layer of decaying leaves. He has experimented countless times and faced death innumerable times. Although his body recovers each time, his spirit has long been exhausted and weakened. It is the desire to survive that sustains him, yet he is in urgent need of rest

Holding the heart-shaped stone necklace, he made a concerted effort to calm his racing heartbeat, trying to breathe as gently as possible, relaxing his entire body, and ideally drifting into a hypnotic sleep. He was uncertain whether he could ultimately escape; he simply continued to experiment.

The villains would take a couple of seconds to react before they began to shout and launch their pursuit. However, their knowledge of the forest was far inferior to that of Zhou Qingfeng. The latter was familiar with every patch of soil, every blade of grass, and every tree in the woods; he could run with his eyes closed without making a mistake, having run through it countless times.

The ugly old man, upon seeing the sword light approaching, ordered the archers to shoot arrows to obstruct it without a moment's hesitation. The other villains also raised their clubs, knives, and forks, preparing to resist Zhou Qingfeng's counterattack—at that moment, the evil dragon in the cave had just lifted its head, contemplating whether it was in a good mood or a bad mood today

Killing the ugly old man was not Zhou Qingfeng's objective; the villains could still intercept him, and there was no chance of escape under the chaos of their clubs. Thus, he abandoned this approach and instead, halfway through the woods, suddenly darted agilely behind a tree and swiftly fled into the distance

Zhou Qingfeng dealt with this countless times before he learned how to fabricate a fall scene, how to erase traces of his whereabouts, how to choose an appropriate distance for escape, how to select a safe location, and how to quickly dig a pit to bury himself.

Haha ... ...

Only after the anger subsided did the evil dragon recall the events that had just transpired. It could not remember whether it had killed the human who had intruded into its cave—everything happened within a matter of seconds, and by the time the evil dragon reacted, that fellow had already left it with nothing but a silhouette to admire.

A rogue archer was momentarily dazzled, and Zhou Qingfeng slipped away, leaving a giant dragon staring at him. He relaxed the bowstring in his hand, and the arrow softly shot out a distance of several meters, clinking as it struck the tough scales on the surface of the giant dragon.

The ferocious dragon will inspect the treetop damaged by Zhou Qingfeng, searching for the footprints he left on the ground, and will use its fiery breath to incinerate the forest, igniting a great fire. It will employ various methods, both conceivable and inconceivable to mortals, to seek its target

Prolonged sleep restored the fragmented consciousness of Zhou Qingfeng, making him exceptionally resilient and powerful on a mental level ... When he awoke from his deep slumber, his eyes still closed, a segment of text flashed across his retina ...

The trial has ended and is in a safe state. Do you need to save now

With a speed nearly equivalent to a hundred-meter sprint, Zhou Qingfeng arrived at the slope outside the cave. He deliberately reached the side close to the cliff, silently waiting and recovering his strength

Laozi has escaped, finally escaped!
