“Gathering Spirit Spell, an ancient method of enlightenment from the wilds, can transform the chaotic Vital Energy of heaven and earth into pure Spirit Essence. This Spirit Essence not only helps in focusing the mind and cleansing the body but also contains the profound uses of the Immortal Path!”
In just a few sentences, the preciousness of this manual is almost established! To put it simply, the air in the current Divine Martial Continent is filled with various chaotic Vital Energy and elements. These elements and Vital Energy can assist martial artists and some foreign mages in their cultivation, but the drawback is that there is insufficient Spirit Energy! The path of immortality is lacking!
However, once equipped with such a Supreme Technique, it could almost perfectly resolve Ye Feng's stagnation on the Immortal Path! Although he has already reached the Qi Refinement Third Layer through the Innate Spirit Summoning Technique, he is still far from being sufficient compared to the powerful martial artists of this world!
If he cultivates alongside this auxiliary manual, it would undoubtedly pave a bright path for him to continue his journey in immortality! Ye Feng felt a surge of emotions, truly not expecting to obtain such a treasure in this place. However, compared to his obsession with the Gathering Spirit Spell, the few people behind him were fixated on two other manuals with fiery eyes. After a moment of thought, Ye Feng guessed the reason; after all, the Divine Martial Continent prioritizes martial artists as supreme. The so-called path of immortality is nearly impossible to thrive in this land where Spirit Energy is scarce.
Thus, martial artists have little interest in something like the Gathering Spirit Spell! Only someone special like Ye Feng understands its value. On another note, Ye Feng was puzzled as to why such a treasure was left here so casually. Where had its previous owner gone?
This question was overlooked by everyone. He surveyed the secret chamber again and noticed that many arrangements were covered in dust and even thick cobwebs. It seemed no one had been here for at least a hundred years. Perhaps this predecessor had long since departed, or maybe he had fallen here?
“Could it be that the one who excavated this secret chamber was also a cultivator on the Immortal Path?” Ye Feng muttered to himself, suddenly recalling what that True Lord had said—he was not the first cultivator to be endowed with a Divine Soul... Various doubts intertwined in his mind like a fog.
At this moment, Huang Yao and others could not help themselves; first, Cheng Ze picked up the Unnamed Slash, his eyes shining with excitement as he admired it. It seemed he couldn't put it down. Meanwhile, Huang Ge, quick-witted, snatched up the Reverse Water Slash before Zong Nan, equally entranced by it!
Both Huang Yao and Zong Nan felt somewhat awkward but knew that distribution would ultimately depend on Ye Feng!
Ye Feng was also aware of everyone's thoughts and smiled as he said, “Everyone, I won't mention that first come first served rule. Since we are all on the same team, I will speak frankly: I want this Gathering Spirit Spell. If anyone has objections, feel free to voice them!”
That being said, Huang Yao and others shook their heads in unison. If it weren't for Ye Feng's return, they might still be trapped in that black hole! Discovering this secret chamber was also thanks to him; thus, no one protested when he claimed what others deemed less valuable.
Now that he only wanted the manual that everyone overlooked, it was naturally uncontroversial!
Feigning gratitude, Ye Feng continued, “As for the remaining two manuals, I think you four should distribute them among yourselves; I won’t interfere. How does that sound?”
As soon as these words were spoken, there was no dissent. Cheng Ze glanced at Zong Nan, hesitating to speak, but his thoughts were clearly written on his face. Zong Nan understood that since he did not practice sword techniques, the Unnamed Slash might not be suitable for him, so he let it go to the former.
Huang Ge, on the other hand, said nothing and directly put the Reverse Water Slash into his pocket, completely oblivious to the cold gaze of his royal brother.
Ye Feng seemed to notice the change in the relationship between the two brothers and frowned in confusion. It wasn't until Zong Nan quietly whispered something in his ear that he suddenly understood. He kept an eye on Huang Yao and, seeing that everyone had no objections, continued speaking:
"Alright, now we have entered a dead end. However, since we haven't found any trace of our senior in this secret chamber, it indicates that there are other exits that have yet to be discovered. My suggestion is that we take a break here for a while while I release my Soul Thought to sense the surrounding environment!"
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed. Cheng Ze eagerly began practicing the Unnamed Slash, while Huang Ge moved to a corner to carefully study the Reverse Water Slash. Only Zong Nan and Huang Yao were left with nothing to do, staring at each other without any ideas.
At this moment, Ye Feng no longer cared about mending the team's relationships. He had long realized that Huang Yao was not on their side; it would be best if those two brothers fell out with each other. He already knew where the exit was on the map in his mind but did not rush to explain.
If he hurriedly suggested leaving now, it would surely raise suspicions. At this moment, it was better to put on an act; he could take the opportunity to sense the changes within himself! Although the enhanced Divine Soul was immensely powerful, it wasn't as easy for him as it seemed.
Each time he released a cold aura, his body would suffer a backlash. The damage from this backlash might not be significant at first, but accumulated over time, it could exhaust his mental energy. Ye Feng understood that this Divine Soul Power should not be misused; he couldn't even determine what realm he was currently in.
He only knew that if he fully unleashed his power, he could contend against a late-stage Martial Saint! Right now, he was filled with thoughts but had nowhere to vent them. He hadn't yet decided on their next destination; for now, he planned to seize Exotic Treasures within the Underground Palace before investigating matters related to Titans at the center.
With a simple plan in mind, he closed his eyes and drifted into a state of deep contemplation... Meanwhile, the group in the secret chamber was unaware of the terrifying events unfolding elsewhere in the Underground Palace!
The conspiracy of Blue Stream Villa had already been uncovered by several people. As the instigator of this incident, Martial Saint Lan Yuanfeng had entered the Underground Palace earlier. At this moment, he led his subordinates through various corners of the Underground Palace, attempting to uncover its hidden powers!
"Master of the Flowing Cloud Villa, something feels off. We haven't encountered a single beast so far," one steward said with a worried expression.
Lan Yuanfeng remained unfazed and replied, "What do you mean?" Hearing the cold tone from Master of the Flowing Cloud Villa made this steward hesitate but ultimately forced himself to say: "Master of the Flowing Cloud Villa, this doesn't seem right. Did we take a wrong turn? There are no treasures along this path; is that why there are no Demons guarding it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, those following behind also showed signs of doubt. Only Lan Yuanfeng disdainfully replied: "Cowards always have many reasons. Who told you that just because there are no Demons means there are no treasures? This Underground Palace is beyond human comprehension and cannot be interpreted through common logic!"
Uncertain whether he was deceiving himself or not, once those words were spoken, no one dared to utter a sound. The passage they were traversing grew increasingly deep and dark; if it weren't for everyone carrying torches, they would have been engulfed in complete darkness.
However, as they continued deeper, even Lan Yuanfeng began to feel uneasy. He calculated the time; they had been inside for nearly half a day. It was likely that the Trial Team on the plains had perished by now, yet he had made little progress. For Blue Stream Villa at this moment, time was of the essence.
If they could not quickly find some extraordinary treasure within the Underground Palace that could turn their fortunes around, the wrath of the various Sects would soon obliterate them! Aware of this, Lan Yuanfeng couldn't help but question, "Could it be that the Evil Cult's minions dare to deceive Old Man?"
It turned out that he had long been colluding with the Evil Cult! Otherwise, how could he have discovered the secrets of the Underground Palace so quickly? However, he never expected that these thoughts would be overheard by someone hidden in the darkness. To call this being a person was not entirely accurate; it had merely transformed into a human form but was actually a genuine Demon.
Bailuo revealed his sharp fangs and pressed against the wall silently, using his profound cultivation to make no sound. Yet, the ferocity on his face betrayed his true feelings at that moment! He watched as Lan Yuanfeng walked step by step into the trap he had set, feeling immensely pleased.
The information about the Evil Cult was leaked by him, and he was surprised that Lan Xiaoer actually believed it! Now, all he needed to do was follow along and watch Lan Yuanfeng die before returning to report to his leader! Even now, he admired his leader's foresight.
By revealing a corner of Titan's Abyss and trapping a large group of humans in this Yue Ma Plain, he ensured that the human world would never know about the secrets hidden beneath the abyss and the connection to where Lord Asura and Shura Demon King Lu Tong were sealed!
If their plan succeeded, within three years, Shura Demon King Lu Tong would return to this continent! At that time, it would be humanity's complete annihilation!
"Ha ha ha, foolish and ignorant humans, prepare to face our Demon's wrath!"
At this moment, Lan Yuanfeng had led his subordinates to a turning point where ahead lay an unusually quiet open space. Frowning, he stepped forward first to ensure there were no Demons before signaling his subordinates to follow.
Unfortunately, the unexpected change occurred just as everyone from Blue Stream Villa entered this open area! The entrance to the space suddenly collapsed! Lan Yuanfeng was startled and turned around only to see a grotesque white ghostly face grinning at him as if looking at a group of dead people!
There was no time for thought; chaos erupted among everyone from Blue Stream Villa! Lan Yuanfeng immediately shouted, "Don't panic! Maintain formation around me! Stay alert!"
As soon as he spoke, everyone quickly regained their composure and formed a defensive formation. It seemed that this Human-Level Sect's troops were not simple after all! However, what awaited them was still death!
In plain sight within the air, no suspicious Demons were detected. Yet for some reason, the oppressive atmosphere in the air intensified inexplicably! As a Martial Saint Realm expert, Lan Yuanfeng sensed something was off right away; it seemed as if the air itself was distorting.
A transparent creature distorted space! Eventually, this distorted creature gradually became more defined! It was a group of thread-like entities that had no form and were completely transparent! The threads resembled colorful ribbons! They floated past the defensive formation of the crowd, bringing a sense of tranquility!
Everyone was entranced by this wondrous sight! Some, not knowing why, actively put down their weapons and walked toward those threads as if entranced, but once they stepped in, the threads wrapped around them! What began as a gentle caress turned into a terrifying engulfment!
The person's expression became vacant, and their pupils shifted from dazed to fearful in an instant. Ultimately, before the astonished and terrified gazes of everyone, that person vanished into thin air!
Lan Yuanfeng's pupils constricted! He realized that person had been consumed! He understood what these creatures truly were!
"It's the Phantom Demon! Everyone focus! Do not attack! Attacking is futile! Calm yourselves and do not be deceived!" By the time he shouted this, it was already too late. The crowd witnessed how the threads made one of their colleagues disappear and rushed to attack!
Endless True Energy surged into their weapons and struck at those few but terrifying transparent creatures! However, strangely, all those attacks seemed to hit nothing but air, passing through the Phantom Demon's body without causing any harm!
In an instant, screams and the sounds of Martial Techniques being unleashed echoed across the open space. At the same time, the Phantom Demons began to counterattack, claiming one life after another amidst the people's panic! Whether they were at the late stage of Origin Martial Realm or the early stage of Gangwu Realm, they found themselves utterly powerless to resist!
They could only struggle under the wrapping of the threads, leaving behind twisted expressions of pain before vanishing into nothingness, as if they had never existed at all!
Lan Yuanfeng's heart sank to the depths; he finally understood why he hadn't seen any demons or corpses along the way—even the bones of the initial adventurers were absent. It turned out they had all been completely devoured by these monsters that emerged from the void!
