Chapter 1282 Breaking Through the Spirit Gate
The street was bustling with activity.
This was a small frontier town in the Taixu Realm, gathering cultivators from all directions.
Lin Feng and Fire Miaomiao walked slowly along the main street in town. This attractive couple immediately drew the attention of many people.
Lin Feng had originally planned to enter the Taixu Forbidden Zone directly, but after the Burial Sword Mountain incident, he vaguely felt that things weren’t so simple. So he thought about first understanding the situation here, preferably visiting all five Immortal Dao heritage sites before making a decision!
Just then,
At the end of his vision,
A huge archway appeared.
The archway was adorned with gold lacquer and carved with mystical patterns. The entire structure soared into the clouds, magnificent and imposing, half-hidden in the dense cloud layer like a gate to the heavenly realm. Some cultivators were coming and going through the gate, appearing like divine beings, extraordinarily remarkable.
“What is this?”
Lin Feng stopped, somewhat shocked.
Truly, the vast world contained all manner of wonders.
In such a barren and desolate area, how could there be such a sacred place?
“This is Spirit Gate!”
Fire Miaomiao responded softly.
“Spirit Gate?”
Lin Feng’s eyes flickered slightly.
According to Fire Miaomiao’s introduction, there were many religious ancient clans around the Taixu Forbidden Zone, and Spirit Gate was among the best of them. However, later, due to the matter of comprehending the five Immortal Dao heritage sites, Spirit Gate suffered heavy casualties, gradually declined, and lost its former glory.
But even so,
Spirit Gate still held a pivotal position in this region and could be called a local hegemon!
“You brought me to this town, and walked to this place! Was it for this Spirit Gate?”
Lin Feng asked.
“Yes! Earlier, when I came here with my brother, I became acquainted with a disciple of Spirit Gate, and stayed temporarily within Spirit Gate.”
“I’ve been missing for so long, my brother must be very worried!”
Fire Miaomiao replied softly.
After speaking,
She took the initiative to hold Lin Feng’s warm hand and walked toward the archway.
Soon, the two arrived side by side at the front. Two rows of blue-armored guards stood before the archway, all imposing with piercing gazes. The crescent-shaped sabers hanging at their waists revealed a corner, sharp and soul-gripping!
“Halt!”
“This is Spirit Gate’s restricted area, no trespassing!”
A guard, seeing Lin Feng and Fire Miaomiao approach, immediately blocked them with his saber.
“I am Fire Miaomiao, I previously came here with Du Feng!”
Fire Miaomiao stepped forward with a smile.
Du Feng was a direct disciple of Spirit Gate, holding a high position and much beloved. Previously, whenever Fire Miaomiao entered Spirit Gate, she would mention Du Feng’s name, and these guards would show respect upon hearing it.
But this time,
The guards remained expressionless, and one of them coldly shouted:
“Du Feng is suspected of crimes and has been taken to the punishment hall! You two leave immediately, or don’t blame us for being impolite!”
“Impossible, Du Feng is a direct disciple of your Spirit Gate! His status is second only to those elders!”
Fire Miaomiao was shocked and uncertain.
“Direct disciple, so what? Those with crimes must still be punished! To tell you the truth, he can barely save himself now, how could he care about insects like you!”
The guard sneered.
Fire Miaomiao was stunned by these words.
How long had she been gone?
How could such a thing happen?
Realizing that Lin Feng was watching beside her, her face turned crimson, feeling extremely embarrassed.
“Hehe, suspicion of crime doesn’t mean guilt is confirmed. My friend here is a good friend of Du Feng, can we go in and see what’s happening?”
Lin Feng said with a smile.
Hearing this, the guard suddenly drew his crescent saber, which gleamed coldly, splashing a visible strand of cold air. He said coldly:
“Get lost! Otherwise, you’ll be considered accomplices and arrested together!”
“Brother Lin!”
Fire Miaomiao tugged at Lin Feng’s right hand, her expression tense and pale. She gestured for Lin Feng to leave first, as Spirit Gate was not to be underestimated. She didn’t want to involve Lin Feng in her troubles again!
“No matter! A small Spirit Gate, trying to cause trouble? I came here giving face to Spirit Gate, but if they don’t want this face, then I needn’t be polite!”
Lin Feng sneered and directly reached out, grabbing for the crescent saber in the guard’s hand.
“How dare you!”
The guard’s expression suddenly turned cold. The saber flashed across the sky, its sharp blade carrying rolling saber energy, slashing directly at Lin Feng!
“Clang!”
The saber struck hard against Lin Feng’s right hand, making a crisp sound. The sharp weapon that could split mountains couldn’t cut Lin Feng’s skin. Lin Feng exerted force, his right hand bursting with golden light, and terrifying power surged forth, directly blasting the guard away. The guard crashed heavily into the archway, splashing blood!
He had actually held back; otherwise, this strike would have turned the small guard into a mist of blood!
“Pfft!”
The guard struggled to his feet, looking at Lin Feng with shock.
At the same time,
Cultivators from the distant town heard the commotion and rushed over.
When they saw someone daring to force entry into Spirit Gate and injure a Spirit Gate guard, their pupils contracted, and they all drew in cold breaths!
It was known that,
Although Spirit Gate had declined, a lean camel was still larger than a horse. How could someone be so arrogant!
Meanwhile, some in the crowd looked at Lin Feng, feeling his face was familiar, as if they had seen him somewhere before.
“Who exactly are you?”
The guard’s expression was ferocious.
The other guards also unhesitatingly surrounded Lin Feng and Fire Miaomiao, encircling them completely.
“Bang!”
Lin Feng’s expression remained indifferent as he shattered the seized crescent saber with one hand, then grabbed Fire Miaomiao’s hand and strode toward the interior of Spirit Gate, ignoring the surrounding guards.
“Today I will enter Spirit Gate, let’s see who can stop me!”
Half an hour earlier,
Inside Spirit Gate’s punishment hall.
Two handsome and distinguished young men were bound tightly, kneeling on the ground, raising their heads in humiliation, their faces full of defiance.
One wore white clothes, and was the Spirit Gate direct disciple Du Feng mentioned by Fire Miaomiao.
The other wore a fire-red robe. This person was Fire Miaomiao’s elder brother, the son of Fire Cloud Evil God—Fire Ling Zi!
Both had disheveled hair and were covered in blood. Numerous bloody marks covered their muscular bodies, some deep enough to reveal bone, a heart-wrenching sight.
“Du Feng, facing death and still not confessing? Let’s see how tough you are!”
In front,
A cold-faced young man in black robes with a pressing aura held a five-metal patterned dragon whip, looking down at the two. As he spoke, his right hand exerted force, and the whip, as flexible as a soft knife, lashed heavily onto Du Feng’s body.
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
The muffled sounds continued as Du Feng’s already broken body became more severely injured. Blood flowed down his body onto the redwood floor, making dripping sounds.
Yet even so, he didn’t groan once, but instead said with grief and indignation to those seated around:
“Respected ancestors and uncles! I didn’t do it. I grew up in Spirit Gate, nurtured by Spirit Gate, how could I betray it?”
“It’s him! It’s Zhao Zhiping who framed me! He… is the one who betrayed the sect!”
