Chapter 100 - too Are you not setting a trap for me?_i
Li Cheng flicked his fingers, and a sword beam shot forth with a casual slash, burying itself into the earth.
“This strike indeed contains the essence of Space Law, but this power…”
Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan spoke, then suddenly shifted his tone, “Run quickly!”
The next moment, the ground shattered, revealing a deep and dark spatial rift that seemed capable of devouring everything.
As the spatial rift appeared, the ground was swiftly consumed by it, and the entire secret land began to contract!
Li Cheng’s figure flickered as he rushed out of the secret land.
“Hey, look, isn’t your master coming out now?”
No sooner had he emerged than he heard Feng Wanli’s voice.
Li Cheng cleared his throat lightly, “Let’s go, to Universe Mystery Tower.”
Feng Wanli looked towards the entrance of the secret land, “Don’t be in such a hurry, let’s first conceal this entrance.”
No sooner had he spoken than the entrance abruptly shrank into a black dot and then extinguished!
Feng Wanli stood frozen in place, “The secret land, it’s gone?”
“Isn’t it perfect that it’s gone? This is called destroying the body and erasing all traces. From now on, the Sword Sect will never know it was the Taoist Mysterious Sect that stole their secret land,” Li Cheng coughed out.
Feng Wanli slowly turned his gaze towards Li Cheng, “You realized the sword technique and the secret land vanished as a result?”
“Blame the secret land for being too weak; a light sword strike and it just shattered,” Li Cheng said innocently.
Feng Wanli’s facial muscles twitched, and after a long while, he nodded slightly, “It’s good that it shattered. You’re right, this also counts as destroying the body and erasing all traces.”
“But don’t talk nonsense; it wasn’t my Taoist Mysterious Sect that ‘stole’ someone else’s secret land. I’m certain it was moved here by the Evil Master from Ten Thousand Evils Cave!” Feng Wanli continued.
Li Cheng chuckled, “What secret land?”
Feng Wanli arched an eyebrow, then also began to laugh, “Right, what secret land? What secret land is there? Let’s go, to Universe Mystery Tower!”
“The Universe Mystery Tower of my Taoist Mysterious Sect has nine levels; only the size of the internal space differs on each level, with the time flow speed being the same,” he explained.
“Currently, the ninth level is unoccupied. I’ll take you there!”
Upon arriving in front of the Universe Mystery Tower, Feng Wanli said proudly as he described it with shining eyes.
Li Cheng looked up at the nine-story tower, “Too ostentatious. The Sect’s Treasure stands so tall atop the mountain peak, aren’t you afraid it’ll get struck by lightning?”
Feng Wanli appeared stunned, then teased, “Sour grapes. Just be envious!”
“What do I have to be envious of? A thirtyfold increase in time flow rate? I really don’t care for it. Now if you had something that could multiply it by a few thousand, that might be impressive.”
Feng Wanli rolled his eyes, “Let’s go!”
Feng Wanli led the way, and Li Cheng spoke again, “If you come back from the Immortal World, bring me some Universe Mystery Stones.”
Universe Mystery Stones, capable of affecting the flow of time, if he could get a few, combined with Time Law, Li Cheng was confident he could craft an Immortal Artifact even more incredible than the Universe Mystery Tower.
Feng Wanli stiffened and turned to look at Li Cheng, “Are you joking? The rarity of Universe Mystery Stones is comparable to…”
As he spoke, something seemed to dawn on Feng Wanli, “The one who crafted the Immortal Artifact at the Artifact Sect wasn’t some so-called Tribulation Loose Immortal or the Green-faced Elder, but you?”
Back when he arrived at the Artifact Sect, the great battle had already ended. All he heard was that someone at the Artifact Sect had crafted an Immortal Artifact, supposedly a Tribulation Loose Immortal!
Although Feng Wanli wanted to pay a visit by virtue of his identity as a person from the Lower World, considering that the other party was a Tribulation Loose Immortal, he decided against it.
Later, when fluctuations from an Immortal Artifact were detected at Red Flame Gorge, many rushed over only to discover it had been conjured by the Artifact Sect’s Green-faced Elder. Thus, everyone thought the Artifact Sect had lied about the Tribulation Loose Immortal and it was actually the Green-faced Elder who had crafted the Immortal Artifact.
Feng Wanli was naturally aware of this news, he understood that Artifact Sect made such a claim to protect the Green-faced Elder, so they said it was crafted by a twenty-second Tribulation Loose Immortal.
After all, just hearing about a twenty-second Tribulation Loose Immortal was terrifying.
But at that moment, Feng Wanli suddenly felt that it must be Li Cheng!
Otherwise, would Li Cheng have coincidentally shown up at Artifact Sect that time? And now he wants the Universe Mystery Stone?
“What Immortal Artifact?” Li Cheng pretended not to know, what else could he do?
Feng Wanli smiled and did not bring it up again, “I suddenly remembered, here in our Kunlun Realm, there’s a place that might have Universe Mystery Stones.”
“Oh?” Li Cheng’s interest was piqued, those were Immortal Materials, the Kunlun Realm had them?
Feng Wanli nodded, “Perhaps not just one place. One is the chaotic area between the Southern Domain and the Central Continent, where space-time is very chaotic. There must be Universe Mystery Stones there.”
“The second is the legendary ancient battlefield, a mysterious place left from the previous era. It’s said to be rich in resources, with everything one could desire. Sadly, that place is even more mysterious than the Sky-reaching Road and the Ascend to Immortal Platform, and nobody knows where it is.”
Li Cheng looked at Feng Wanli’s smiling face and asked doubtfully, “You’re not setting a trap for me, are you?”
Feng Wanli’s expression turned serious, “What are you talking about? If you don’t believe me, ask Senior Tianyuan.”
“He’s right. Those two places definitely have them, especially the ancient battlefield. In the past, Immortal Emperors often came to the Kunlun Realm just to search for this place,” the voice of Immortal Emperor Tianyuan appeared.
“Has anyone found it?” Feng Wanli asked curiously.
“Who knows? Even if someone did find it, they certainly wouldn’t broadcast it.” “Immortal Emperors are also interested in the ancient battlefield? That is quite fascinating. If I ever come across it in the future, I can’t afford to miss it,” Li Cheng said with a smile.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan fell silent, lost in thought.
Upon reaching the ninth floor of the Universe Mystery Tower, Feng Wanli took his leave, as he still needed to discuss matters regarding the ancestral founder with the Sect’s higher-ups.
“Lei Yuan, your eldest senior brother Yun Tianqiong, has an extraordinary talent in Sword Dao. Your senior sister Ling Xi possesses unparalleled natural talent in Alchemy Dao. Your second senior brother Qi Jingtian… He’s also gifted with extraordinary talent.”
“Since you’ve entered my tutelage, let’s test to see, besides the Innate Eye Technique, what other exceptional talents you possess.”
The Innate Eye Technique was only an auxiliary ability. Li Cheng hadn’t pried into the capabilities of his pupil technique but knew that it probably wasn’t of much use in enhancing his cultivation.
Lei Yuan nodded, “Master, my Eye Technique awakened when the trading house was destroyed. Through two years of study, I’ve found that it’s somewhat akin to aura-seeing. I can see different auras above everyone’s heads, some weak, some strong, but I don’t know what they represent.”
“It’s also present between heaven and earth. Back then, I saw that the aura in this direction was dense. I felt my path of survival lied in this direction, which is why I escaped this way.”
Li Cheng smiled, “That’s just the initial awakening. Once you grow stronger, maybe nothing in the world will escape your eyes.”
Lei Yuan scratched his head, “But I can’t see the aura of Master and Uncle Feng. That day, precisely because I couldn’t see it, that’s why I turned to Master and Uncle Feng.”
Li Cheng nodded slightly, it must be due to the vast difference in cultivation.
However, Lei Yuan said he could see that the aura was strong in this direction, which suddenly reminded Li Cheng of what Immortal Emperor Tianyuan had said.
He meant that Lei Yuan’s Innate Eye Technique, combined with the Heaven Secret Immortal Scroll, could yield unexpected results.
Perhaps, he should ask Mu Xingzhi about potentially passing the Heaven Secret Immortal Scroll on to Lei Yuan.
With his status today, making a small exception shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
Besides, this was for the benefit of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
In the coming days, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect would be arriving. There would be no need for him to make a special trip back. For now, he would first test Lei Yuan’s natural talent.
This was, after all, a disciple that the system had prompted him to take. Surely, his talent couldn’t be weaker than Yun Tianqiong and the others, could it?
