Chapter 669 The General Attacks
Hearing Fang Yu’s words, the golden-robed man’s expression changed.
He gripped his outstretched right hand, but could no longer feel the connection!
He immediately turned to look aside and discovered that Bai Ran and Su Lengyun were now able to move freely and were gasping for breath.
What was going on?!
He had clearly used the power of this space to bind these two people tightly!
Though shocked, the golden-robed man reacted quickly, silently reciting an incantation in his mind, intending to control Bai Ran and Su Lengyun again.
But before he could do so, he felt a cool breeze sweep toward him!
Looking up, he saw Fang Yu with an icy expression standing right in front of him, within arm’s reach!
“If you won’t answer, then I’ll use my own method.”
As Fang Yu spoke, he clenched his left fist and smashed it toward the golden-robed man’s head.
“Ah…”
The golden-robed man only managed to let out a scream before it was abruptly cut off.
“Bang!”
The golden-robed man’s body completely exploded in an instant!
His remains blasted forward.
Through his Eye of Insight, Fang Yu could clearly see a wisp of gas trying to escape.
This was the golden-robed man’s soul.
Fang Yu initially wanted to annihilate it directly, but instead, he reached out his right hand and grabbed forward.
The wisp of soul was immediately locked by Fang Yu and pulled back in front of him.
Fang Yu released his divine consciousness, forcibly entering the soul.
He wanted to search for memory fragments related to the Skyreach Sacred Halberd within this soul.
…
At this moment, many cultivators had already gathered around the Great Sacred Hall.
They had all come because of the beam of light shot from the Great Sacred Hall.
Due to Qi Rongdao’s deliberate publicity for the bounty’s popularity, most of these cultivators believed that the Great Sacred Hall contained countless treasures.
So, without much thought, they rushed through the main gate one after another!
Meanwhile, in the sky above the Great Sacred Hall, another figure flashed out of the black hole.
This was a man in black robes, with sharp facial features and a cold aura between his brows.
He was one of Dao Kong’s high-level guards, Lu Wei.
Before coming here, he had already sensed Dao Kong’s emotional fluctuations.
He knew very clearly that this mission must succeed.
“The sacred artifact… is in the building below.” Lu Wei looked down at the Great Sacred Hall below, then glanced at the crowd of cultivators pouring through the distant gate.
With an expressionless face, Lu Wei dove toward the Great Sacred Hall below!
…
Inside the Great Sacred Hall.
Fang Yu floated in midair, his divine consciousness entering the golden-robed man’s soul, searching for memories.
After spending about two or three minutes, Fang Yu found memories related to the Skyreach Sacred Halberd.
In these memories, the golden-robed man’s true identity was Hu Zhen, from a clan called Taizhong.
During a dangerous training experience, Hu Zhen fell alone from a cliff, but didn’t die, only injuring his leg.
After being unconscious for a while, Hu Zhen woke up and prepared to leave the bottom of the cliff, but just before leaving, he suddenly discovered a long halberd half-embedded in the ground nearby.
He approached it and, using his clan’s unique method, detected that this halberd contained supreme power, which delighted him greatly.
Later, the blurry figure of the weapon spirit appeared and conversed with the golden-robed man.
Hu Zhen tried to pull out the Skyreach Sacred Halberd, but predictably failed.
Unwilling to give up such a divine weapon, he dug up the entire piece of soil.
Strangely, when he did this, the entire Skyreach Sacred Halberd suddenly became as light as cotton, easily lifted.
But half of it remained wrapped in soil, immovable.
So, Hu Zhen took the soil-embedded Skyreach Sacred Halberd with him.
Upon returning to his clan, the greedy Hu Zhen chose not to inform his clansmen about this, wanting to keep the divine weapon for himself.
Afterward, he continuously tried to pull out the Skyreach Sacred Halberd, failing until his lifespan was exhausted.
After seeing these memories, Fang Yu was amazed by Hu Zhen’s perseverance and selfishness.
Despite using all his strength, he couldn’t pull out the Skyreach Sacred Halberd. Yet Hu Zhen never thought about revealing this to the outside world to seek help.
This secret had been hidden by him until today.
Based on these memories, Fang Yu could deduce that Hu Zhen’s era was about two thousand years ago.
At that time, the cultivation world was flourishing, so it was normal that Fang Yu hadn’t heard of the Taizhong clan.
As for the Skyreach Sacred Halberd, it was occupied and hidden by Hu Zhen alone, so it couldn’t possibly have been known to the outside world.
But thinking about it… how did Dao Kong know about the existence of the Skyreach Sacred Halberd?
“Right, Dao Kong! Could there be something about Dao Kong in his memories?” Fang Yu thought.
“Bang!”
Just as Fang Yu was about to continue searching Hu Zhen’s soul, a loud noise came from above!
“Brother Yu, be careful…”
From a distance, Su Lengyun called out weakly.
Fang Yu looked up and saw a black shadow rushing toward him!
“Whoosh!”
The black shadow moved at extreme speed, causing a piercing sonic boom in the air.
In an instant, he rushed to Fang Yu’s front, extending his left hand.
Fang Yu saw that there was a black stone embedded in the palm of this person’s left hand.
“Bang!”
The next second, a black light shot out from the stone in his palm, directly at Fang Yu!
A powerful aura surged toward him!
Fang Yu raised his left arm to block!
“Boom…”
The black light struck Fang Yu’s left arm.
Golden light flashed on Fang Yu’s left arm, forcibly blocking the black light’s erosion, causing it to scatter to the sides.
Meanwhile, the figure above took advantage of this opportunity to reach for the Skyreach Sacred Halberd in Fang Yu’s right hand!
He had only one goal!
“So you’ve come to snatch the Skyreach Sacred Halberd…” Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and directly released his grip on the halberd, allowing the other to take it.
Seeing this, Lu Wei in midair curled his lips into a cold smile.
He reached out and grabbed the Skyreach Sacred Halberd in the air, intending to take it away.
But the moment his hand gripped the Skyreach Sacred Halberd, his expression suddenly changed!
It was too heavy!
“Whoosh!”
Lu Wei was pulled down rapidly by the mountain-heavy Skyreach Sacred Halberd!
Standing in place, Fang Yu looked down at the falling Lu Wei, revealing a mocking smile, and said in his heart: “Weapon spirit, have some fun with this person. I need to attend to other matters.”
“Happy to serve you, master,” the weapon spirit replied.
Fang Yu turned around and flew toward Su Lengyun and Bai Ran in the distance.
“Are you both alright?” Fang Yu asked.
Bai Ran shook his head and said through gritted teeth: “Mr. Fang, I’m fine. I… caused you trouble, I’m sorry.”
Seeing Bai Ran’s self-reproachful appearance, Fang Yu knew what he was thinking.
“You absolutely did nothing wrong. On the contrary, you did very well,” Fang Yu said, patting Bai Ran’s shoulder.
Bai Ran lowered his head without speaking.
Though they hadn’t interacted much, Fang Yu clearly understood Bai Ran’s personality traits.
Therefore, Fang Yu didn’t say more and came to Su Lengyun’s side.
Su Lengyun’s face was still a bit pale.
Fang Yu reached out and placed his hand on Su Lengyun’s forehead.
A vast stream of true energy entered Su Lengyun’s body, repairing her injuries.
“I can teach you this healing technique later,” Fang Yu said.
“Mm.” Su Lengyun felt much better and revealed a gentle smile, nodding.
Although she also felt guilty for not being able to help Fang Yu,
She was different from Bai Ran; she understood Fang Yu well and knew he wouldn’t like her to say such things.
So, she said nothing.
“I must become stronger, I must!”
But in the depths of Su Lengyun’s heart, her determination to become stronger grew even more intense.
“Let’s go, we haven’t finished our main task yet,” Fang Yu said. “It’s time to explore the true interior of the Great Sacred Hall.”
While searching through Hu Zhen’s memories earlier, Fang Yu had noticed many items that Hu Zhen had placed inside the Great Sacred Hall, preparing to enjoy them after regaining his physical body.
Among them were many items that Fang Yu found quite interesting.
Since they had come to the Great Sacred Hall, they naturally couldn’t leave with just the Skyreach Sacred Halberd.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu suddenly remembered Hu Zhen’s soul.
Turning his head, Fang Yu saw Hu Zhen’s soul not far away, locked and unable to move.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, extended his right index finger, and aimed at Hu Zhen’s soul.
“Whoosh!”
A ball of red flames rushed toward the distance, instantly engulfing Hu Zhen’s soul.
