Chapter 1203 That Ghost
Zhao Cang is dead!
A generation’s master of the Ancient Talisman Sect died in such a desolate place.
Without sunlight, without gentle breeze, his withered body, entangled in bizarre patterns, dissolved into a pool of blood. The blood dripped down, seeping into the charred soil.
At this moment,
Lin Feng suddenly felt a trace of pity in his heart.
Life’s great ups and downs come to this. All we cultivators can do is forge ahead, stay true to ourselves, and leave the rest to fate, because no one knows what the future holds.
“Whoosh~”
Lin Feng tossed a pile of blackened soil, dust flying in the air, giving Zhao Cang a burial of sorts.
Afterward,
He glanced at the sky above, then turned and left.
Since he couldn’t get out now, the only option was to go deeper, to meet that supreme being from years ago. This was the only way to survive.
Meanwhile,
Jun Hai, Tang Hao, Gang Dan, Shen Hai, and a group of cultivators had already gathered together.
Everyone tried to break through the encirclement but failed, so they could only gather to discuss their next strategy.
“This sky barrier is very strange. Someone must have set up a powerful entrapment formation here in advance! To break this formation, brute force won’t work. We must first find the formation’s eye!”
The rogue cultivator Shen Hai said solemnly.
“This place is crisscrossed with spatial rifts. Finding the formation’s eye would be like finding a needle in the ocean! In my opinion, finding Zhao Cang would be easier!”
“This sky barrier must be related to that old schemer Zhao Cang.”
Tang Hao said coldly.
“Hmph… can you use your brain? If you can think of it, wouldn’t Zhao Cang have thought of it too? Do you really think we can find him now?”
Shen Hai’s expression was grim.
In fact,
At this point, no one could be happy about the situation.
“What do you mean? Are you insulting me, calling me stupid?”
Tang Hao, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, bristled instantly and spoke with a twisted voice.
“Isn’t that the case?”
Shen Hai wasn’t intimidated by Tang Hao and strongly retorted.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Jun Hai directly interrupted their argument.
“Enough! What time is it now, and you’re still arguing?”
Jun Hai’s voice was ice-cold as he shifted his gaze to Gang Dan and said:
“You are that great master’s disciple, and you’ve been active in this area for years. You’re more familiar with this place than we are. What’s your opinion?”
Although Gang Dan was very displeased with the people from North God Mountain, he knew this wasn’t the time for jokes. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said:
“The Demon God Valley is unlike other places. Space is chaotic here. Trying to break through the void will result in banishment, with only one in ten chances of survival!”
“In other words, we’re like fish in a barrel now. To break the siege, we have only two options. First is to go deeper and find the formation’s eye. Second is to figure out the exact purpose of this sky barrier. If the barrier is simply meant to trap us, then we don’t need to panic. Once enough time passes, the powerful figures outside will notice something is wrong and come to rescue us!”
After a pause,
Gang Dan continued solemnly:
“But if this sky barrier’s purpose is more than just trapping us, then we’re in trouble!”
With these words,
The scene instantly erupted,
Cultivators from all directions engaged in heated discussions.
Some thought they should stay put and wait for rescue.
Others believed that since they had come this far, they should charge into the deepest part of Demon God Valley, which might break the formation!
Everyone had their own opinions,
And at this moment, Jun Hai suddenly said:
“Everyone, regardless of which option we choose, haven’t you all forgotten a key point?”
“What key point?”
Someone immediately responded.
“This key point is Lin Feng! Lin Feng deliberately delayed us, Zhao Cang was the first to enter… but what about him? He couldn’t just be doing a good deed, could he?”
Jun Hai said slowly.
“What do you mean by that?”
Gang Dan frowned.
“It’s simple. After we entered, Lin Feng would surely come in too! If he had already reached an agreement with Zhao Cang, he would know about this place. So we don’t need to take risks at all. We just need to guard the key paths here and wait for Lin Feng to come to us!”
Jun Hai paused, then continued coldly:
“Once we find Lin Feng, it’s equivalent to capturing Zhao Cang. Then we can not only break the situation but also gain opportunities!”
Hearing this,
The crowd instantly realized, and their unease decreased by three parts!
This was truly a brilliant plan!
Although many knew Jun Hai was using everyone’s power to deal with Lin Feng, at this moment, they were willing to be used.
Soon,
The group formed several small teams, blocking all the paths into Demon God Valley.
Jun Hai, Tang Hao, and other top powerhouses stationed themselves in the center,
So that if any path had an issue, they could rush over immediately.
As time passed minute by minute,
Suddenly, faint footsteps were heard from one of the small paths.
“Someone’s coming!”
The dozen or so cultivators guarding this path were startled and immediately looked over.
In the shadows,
They discovered,
A figure completely wrapped in a black robe approaching.
The figure was tall and robust, with the face covered by black cloth. Though the features were unclear, through the gaps in the cloth, a pair of eyes radiated coldness, like two dim dead stars, lusterless and lifeless.
“Who are you? Walking with your face covered in broad daylight, are you hiding from someone or do you have other intentions?”
The level six rogue cultivator at the front coldly questioned.
“Swoosh~”
The mysterious person’s eyes suddenly shot out two beams of black light. Dark energy spread, causing space to tremble. Vaguely, the world seemed filled with ghostly wails and wolf howls. Black runes flickered, and a mysterious Dao descended, making the dozen cultivators present shudder.
“Get lost!”
The mysterious person uttered a single word.
“Something’s wrong! Call for backup quickly…”
The level six rogue cultivator’s expression became extremely grave. After sending out a message, he immediately summoned his life-bound weapon.
It was a golden divine whip that, once appeared, emitted a dazzling radiance that dispersed the darkness around, coating the entire scene in a layer of golden light.
“Damned insects.”
The mysterious person’s tone was icy as he strode forward.
“Stop! Reveal your true face, or die!”
A cultivator shouted coldly.
But the mysterious person seemed not to hear, moving faster and faster!
“Attack!”
“Boom!”
The many cultivators present,
Under the command of the level six rogue cultivator, launched their attacks without hesitation!
In an instant,
Many terrifying spells rose to the sky, transforming into giant dragons. Dao patterns undulated, producing many fearsome phenomena, all enveloping the approaching mysterious person.
However,
The next moment!
A shocking scene occurred.
The mysterious person waved his hand, and with his body as the center point, a purple-red formation suddenly rose to the sky. Countless ghost shadows wailed and roared within, blocking all attacks.
“Such a familiar technique.”
“It’s that ghost god…”
In a certain corner of Demon God Valley,
Lin Feng, who was moving quickly, suddenly looked up at the purple beam of light, his expression changing drastically. Without any hesitation, he rushed toward the source of the light.
At the same time,
Tang Hao and others also received the news and hurried to the scene. In an instant, the entire Demon God Valley was stirred up.
Meanwhile,
In the deepest part of Demon God Valley, a pair of blood-red eyes slowly opened.
