Chapter 396 - Looking Down
When the mental energy symbols on the two green bronze ghost corpses were destroyed, they howled and released an air of death as they started to move.
Zhao Feng stood on the side and watched with interest.
The girl with the black lotus was still in shock, but reacted and trembled with shock: "No….
Roar! Hu~~
After the two green bronze ghost corpses regained their freedom, they opened their mouths and leapt towards the girl.
Their instinct told them not to get close to Zhao Feng, so they chose to attack the girl.
These green bronze ghost corpses could sense anything with blood and would try to eat it instinctively.
Watching the two green bronze ghost corpses close in, the girl fell into an endless nightmare.
"Hehe."
A light laugh sounded from behind the ghost corpses.
Pa! Pa!
A pair of powerful hands tapped the shoulders of the two green bronze ghost corpses and a chilling coldness was unleashed.
The two ghost corpses froze and didn't dare move.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye flashed with a light and released an ancient aura that was unbelievably shocking towards these ghosts.
Before, Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye had destroyed several early stage True Mystic Rank ghosts with just one glare.
Back then, at the Hundred Graves Forbidden Ground, the terrifying curse couldn't even come close to Zhao Feng's body.
At this point in time, Zhao Feng purposely released his mental energy aura and the two green bronze ghost corpses trembled in fear.
This scene shocked the young girl. She couldn't believe that there was such a powerful eye bloodline that countered the Wicked path ghost Dao so perfectly.
After that, she witnessed Zhao Feng imprint his mental energy symbol onto the two green bronze ghost corpses.
To do this, the girl needed at least half a day with her cultivation and this was under the fact that the ghost corpses didn't resist.
On the other hand, Zhao Feng had just casually scanned the two and imprinted his mental energy symbol onto them.
Shua! Shua!
The two green bronze ghost corpses quickly stood by Zhao Feng's left and right shoulders like personal bodyguards.
"En… not bad, not bad."
Zhao Feng nodded his head as he thought about the technique to control ghost corpses. He realised that he could control it easily without even purposely trying. It was as if this was his nature.
On one hand, Zhao Feng had experience as a beast tamer.
On the other hand, the God's Spiritual Eye was the bane of the green bronze ghost corpses and easily controlled them.
Simply said, Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye was talented in this aspect and controlling ghost corpses wasn't very hard compared to the Ancient Dao of the Soul.
"How… how is this possible!?"
The girl with the black lotus widened her eyes and was dazed from disbelief.
In just an instant, the two green bronze ghost corpses that had belonged to her had been 'stolen' by Zhao Feng.
This guy was the nemesis of those training the Ghost Dao of the Wicked Path.
"I'm taking your black lotus and ghost corpses."
Zhao Feng reached out and tapped the black lotus, which put the green bronze ghost corpses away.
The black lotus contained a dense air of Yin within and was suitable to train ghosts.
Apart from these green bronze ghost corpses, whose battle power came close to the True Lord Rank, the remaining ones didn't enter Zhao Feng's eye.
Zhao Feng was considering feeding them to the two green bronze ghost corpses which should be able to increase the latter's power to the peak True Mystic Rank.
Right at this moment, Zhao Feng's expression changed dramatically as his God's Spiritual Eye turned towards a certain direction.
"This fast? The Black Cliff Palace is like a ghost that just won't go away."
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye saw the Dark Light Ghost Eye floating in the sky a hundred to two hundred miles out.
In reality, the Dark Light Ghost Eye was extremely small and just a bit bigger than a normal human's eye and was hidden in the clouds.
However, how good was Zhao Feng's eyesight? He could even see whether a mosquito was male or female at this distance.
The girl couldn't see the Dark Light Ghost Eye but from Zhao Feng's expression, she could tell the reinforcements of the Black Cliff Palace was arriving and revealed a smile.
Soon, Zhao Feng's eye caught sight of the seven from the Black Cliff Palace closing in on him.
"What a high tracking skill. Using the void to sense my aura."
Zhao Feng didn't immediately run and instead tried how to solve this. If he couldn't find the source of the Dark Light Ghost Eye, then Zhao Feng would be hard pressed to even run.
After knowing the reason, Zhao Feng tried several tactics.
First, he tried to conceal his aura, but the effect wasn't very good.
The Dark Light Ghost Eye was a very skilled method that could sense the target within a certain radius.
After that, Zhao Feng used the Yin Shadow Cloak and created two Yin Shadow Doppelgangers which flew in different directions.
"These doppelgangers all contain my aura."
Zhao Feng thought.
However, the Dark Light Ghost Eye only scanned around once before locking back onto Zhao Feng.
If it was just the Dark Light Ghost Eye itself, it wouldn't have this ability, but it was controlled by Chi Gui's Black Wicked Eye.
Chi Gui specialised in tracking and the auras from the Yin Shadow Doppelgangers couldn't deceive him.
Furthermore, as night approached, the Dark Light Ghost Eyes' sensing ability strengthened.
"If I can't evade it, then I'll have to destroy it."
A cold glimmer flashed in Zhao Feng's eyes, but the Dark Light Ghost Eye was around a hundred to two hundred miles away and wasn't close enough.
The four eye skills and Luohou Bow couldn't reach this far.
"Looks like I'll have to try this move then."
Zhao Feng took a deep breath. He didn't have full confidence over 'this move' and found this skill by accident.
However, now his mental energy level was at the True Lord Rank meaning that his success and control should be higher.
Thinking up to here, Zhao Feng entered the one with nature, and combination of mental energy, power and focus state.
This was just the first step to provide the foundation for that skill.
Immediately following that, Zhao Feng circulated his God's Spiritual Eye to the maximum and an ancient powerful aura finally radiated from Zhao Feng.
The girl and two green bronze ghost corpses nearby trembled.
At the same time, Chi Gui and company were following the Dark Light Ghost Eye's direction.
Chi Gui had maintained the Dark Light Ghost Eye with his mental energy and felt a bit tired but with the fall of night and rise of the air of Yin, the expenditure lowered.
At a certain point in time, Chi Gui sensed something and felt as if he was being surveyed.
There seemed to be a god in the sky that looked down at the world like ants.
At the start, Chi Gui thought it was just an illusion, but with his Black Wicked Eyes' senses, he could tell that they were truly being surveyed.
At the end, all of the geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace felt an invisible mental pressure and waves of mental energy suddenly appeared above the Dark Light Ghost Eye.
"That's!?"
The geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace exclaimed as they gaped towards the sky.
Chi Gui's footsteps also froze.
In the sky above the ghost lantern, an 'Eye of Heaven' had appeared and was looking down at the world.
Wu~
The Eye of Heaven turned its gaze from onto the Dark Light Ghost Eye for a breath and released a mental energy pressure.
Shuu~~~~~
The Dark Light Ghost Eye trembled and disappeared.
The entire process had only lasted one breath.
Chi Gui, who was connected to the Dark Light Ghost Eye, hmphed and shouted: "What… what was that!!?"
The other Black Cliff Palace geniuses were all stunned, and the atmosphere became silent.
The scene just then was so short and shocking it seemed to be fake. However, the Dark Light Ghost Eye had indeed disappeared and almost injured Chi Gui.
"Senior brother Chi Gui, what was that eye technique that could look down on us?"
"Although that eye didn't display overwhelming power, its aura seemed to be supreme in this world."
The other geniuses felt lucky.
Although the Eye of Heaven didn't display much power, the coldness and aura from it shook their hearts.
"This mysterious eye is similar to a tracking eye technique, but that aura crushed my Dark Light Ghost eye."
Chu Gui with the pierced nose took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
His eyes flashed with white and he had to admit he was the loser in this exchange.
Maybe the opponent wasn't as strong as him, but his bloodline power was defeated head on.
Even someone as strong as Chi Gui felt a surge of battle intent.
On a tree far away.
Zhao Feng stood still, and the two green bronze ghost corpses were like protectors.
Hu~
He let out a long breath and his face was pale white and drenched in cold sweat.
Just then his consciousness had jumped out of his shell and flew into the air.
The height and power it displayed seemed to rule the heavens.
Of course, Zhao Feng paid thirty percent of his mental energy as the price.

Chapter 397 - Pure Moon Spiritual Sect
Next to the tree.
The girl was puzzled. In the instant just then, she felt as if Zhao Feng had lost his soul and immediately following that, his face went white.
If it was just making his sight ascend to the skies, the expenditure of energy wouldn't be so terrifying, but Zhao Feng had also used a mental energy attack as well.
Shua!
He touched the black lotus and once again put away the two green bronze ghost corpses.
Using the move just then had moved his consciousness out of his body and his body would have no feeling. It was best if he had a guard nearby.
Zhao Feng's eyes then turned to the girl.
The girl screamed, and her face went white. This might be her last moment. At the same time, she cried bitterly in her heart. If it weren't for the reinforcements of the Black Cliff Palace that forced Zhao Feng into this situation, would she die?
Of course, she didn't know that her fellows of the Black Cliff Palace were all in shock.
"Tell your fellow sect mates that if they keep on following me, I will kill all you no matter what and with every method possible."
A cold voice filled with killing intent sounded within the girl's head.
Before she could react, an after image was left behind.
Shua!
Zhao Feng flew into the complex forest and concealed his aura with a secret technique from the Mystic Flower Treasured Bible.
As long as the Dark Light Ghost Eye or similar skills didn't appear, Zhao Feng wouldn't be easily tracked.
Furthermore, he would create a Yin Shadow Doppelganger at regular intervals and make it travel into a different direction with his aura.
"That ghost lantern should have a range. If I'm far away enough from them, for example five hundred or even a thousand miles, would it be able to sense me?"
Zhao Feng quickened his pace.
Around the time it took to make tea later. The Black Cliff Palace arrived at the tree where Zhao Feng was originally hiding. The girl was sitting on the ground and recovering. When she saw Chi Gui and company come, she revealed a look of joy.
"Senior brother Chi Gui, did you capture or kill that brat?"
She immediately regretted it after saying this.
Chi Gui and company's expressions were solemn and after hearing this, their expressions became ugly.
After that.
The girl told the process of the Wicked Teeth group's defeat and how Zhao Feng had stolen her black lotus and ghost corpses as well as the threat he left behind.
When the people from the Black Cliff Palace heard this, their faces became even dimmer but became warier of Zhao Feng's display of abilities.
"What kind of eye bloodline is this? Just two glances to kill two junior brothers. And that last eye even travelled a hundred to two hundred miles and destroyed my Dark Light Ghost Eye."
The more Chi Gui knew, the more shocked his was.
The target was only an outer genius at the early stages of the True Mystic Rank who knew nothing.
Ever since the shattering of the Desolate Continent every speck of dust became a place in the ocean like an island, named the 'island areas'.
Every 'island area' was a place and the natives there were like frogs in the bottom of the well, thinking they lived on a vast continent.
Who knew which island area that brat came from?
After all, the world was too large. Apparently, after the destruction of the Desolate Continent, it was still expanding.
"Senior brother Chi Gui, are we really going to listen to that brat's threats?"
The skinny youth said unwillingly.
Although the Black Cliff Palace was ranked slightly behind in the three sects, it was still two stars and its wicked name was known far and wide. When had it reached a level where an unknown youth could threaten it?
Chi Gui fell into momentarily silence and his expressions kept on changing.
"If it's a head on fight, that kid's definitely not my match but his eye bloodline is too mysterious and powerful. Apart from me, probably most of the people here can't block one eye of his."
Chi Gui's face was struggling. After being defeated in a fight of bloodlines by a youth whose cultivation was an entire rank lower, his battle intent had been ignited.
However, he also had to consider the whole situation.
Zhao Feng worked alone and had no worries and countless methods, whereas he had many fellows of the same sect here.
"The plan is to try and contact Senior brother Mo Yu and then our chances of capturing that brat will be much higher. Furthermore, we still need to find the Ruins Treasured Palace in the Purple Saint Palace which has no specific location."
Chi Gui made his final decision.
They were here for rewards and in the ruins, there was things that was extinct in the outside world.
Apart from that some people were able to meet fortunes here.
The most famous was the Ruins Treasured Palace which was the core of the Purple Saint Ruins. Apparently, the Purple Night Sacred Lord lived the end of her life there and set an inheritance there.
However, the chances of the Ruins Treasured Palace appearing wasn't high and only had a 1% chance.
Xiu--
A dark bone arrow suddenly shot through the air and travelled towards Chi Gui and company.
"Ghost arrow message!"
Chi Gui caught the dark ghost bone arrow with one hand.
This method of communication was only limited to the Black Cliff Palace. In the outside world, they could travel several tens of thousands of miles but in the Purple Saint Ruins, it could only go a thousand miles and would double in distance during night.
A unique letter was attached to the ghost bone arrow.
"Ye Yanyu of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect is at the North-East mountains and found some fortunes there in a mysterious canyon. Apparently, there's a lot of ancient treasures there…"
Chi Gui's eyes flashed after he read the letter.
"Ye Yanyu!"
"Ye Yanyu is one of the Ten True Lords and her strength is definitely ranked within the top three and is second in the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect."
The people of the Black Cliff Palace mentioned this name with fear and wary.
The Purple Saint Ruins was held by three two-star sects and amongst them the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was two and a half stars and stronger than the Black Cliff Palace.
A total five True Lord Ranks had entered from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
The Moon Demon Palace had three True Lord Ranks enter. After all, they were also once a two-and-a-half-star sect.
The Ten True Lords were split amongst the three sects and the ten one-star elite clans had no True Lord Ranks. At best, they were at the quasi True Lord Rank level.
From this one could see that an extra star was a large difference. It could be reflected not only by the strength of an entire force, but their disciples as well.
"This Ye Yanyu likes to work alone. If everyone from the Black Cliff Palace gather, we can ambush her and if that won't work we can team up with the Moon Demon Palace."
Chi Gui snickered.
In terms of one on one combat, he wasn't Ye Yanyu's match as the latter had reached the late stages of the True Lord Rank and came from a two-and-a-half-star sect. Her talent and bloodline was definitely top tier across the three sects.
However, in the Purple Saint Ruins, not one person's strength alone could decide everything. One needed to be able to work together with others and have plans.
Sou Sou Sou--
Chi Gui led the people from the Black Cliff Palace towards the 'Three Ridge Mountains.'
An hour later.
When Chi Gui and company arrived, there was already people from the Black Cliff Palace here waiting.
"Senior brother Chi Gui, the mysterious canyon is over there but it's very dodgy and blows a weird wind all day. Once hit by it, even normal True Mystic Ranks would lose a layer of skin if they don't die…."
A Black Cliff Palace disciple said.
Indeed.
When they got close to the mysterious canyon, they felt the continuous blow of the weird wind.
With the naked eye, they could see a gust of wind sweep across the mysterious canyon every couple breaths.
When the wind ended, everyone could feel the dense Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and even the aura of ancient materials.
"There's definitely rare materials in this canyon."
The Black Cliff Palace and nearby geniuses from other forces watched.
When the wind ended, everyone managed to see a goddess in green at the depths of the canyon.
The goddess dressed in green was elegant and as light as a leaf.
"Ye Yanyu!"
Chi Gui and company's expression changed as they watched the chosen one of Heaven.
There were dozens of geniuses here but only Ye Yanyu had managed to enter the depths of the canyon and from her smile, one could tell she had gotten some good items.
Chi Gui opened his Black Wicked Eye and inspected Ye Yanyu when the wind ended.
As expected, this girl held some ancient materials in her hand. Each one of them was worth a city when sold in the outside world.
Miao miao!
A small dark grey cat the size of palm was snuggling across Ye Yanyu's face.
Chi Gui felt something was off.
He had never seen this cat with Ye Yanyu before.
Ye Yanyu's looks and strength was famed across the Tianlu islands, and who knew how many geniuses thought of her as the goddess in their dreams.
And now this small cat was loved by Ye Yanyu. Such close contact with her was enough to make the eyes of the geniuses chasing her go red with jealousy.
What made Chi Gui weird was that the weird small cat even looked at him with a playful gaze.
Miao miao!
The weird little cat threw some old coins into the air like a diviner.
"Little cat, what else did you find?"
Ye Yanyu revealed a happy smile as her fingers gently stroked the fur on the little thieving cat's head.
Ever since she had met this little cat, she met fortune wherever she went and her path was smooth and even found this mysterious canyon.
The most important thing was that this little cat was intelligent, and she liked it.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat revealed a pleasurable expression and then pointed towards a certain direction with a 'Hmph.'
A while later in the direction the little thieving cat pointed, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi started to move as it welcomed another prodigy at the True Lord Rank.

Chapter 398 - Canyon
Purple Saint Ruins, in a corner next to a mountain.
"Hmm?"
Zhao Feng's figure suddenly stopped as he sensed a connection on the other side of his blood pact.
If it was in the outside world this blood pact connection would be very strong and the higher their cultivation the stronger their senses.
However, in the Purple Saint Ruins every type of sensing was restricted and Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye couldn't even be avoided. After all, the owner of this ruins had reached the Mystic Light Realm when she was alive and was just a step away from reaching the Heavenly Divine Realm.
The other side of the blood pact was obviously the little thieving cat.
After entering the Purple Saint Ruins, Zhao Feng, Zhao Yufei and the little thieving cat were all split up.
At this point in time Zhao Feng could only feel a blurry direction.
"I'll first meet up with the little thieving cat."
Because of this sensing Zhao Feng decided to change his plan.
According to the original plan he had decided to feed the other ghost products in the black lotus to increase the green bronze ghost corpses strength.
At the same time his mental energy level had reached the True Lord Rank and with the help of the lightning bone and water heart pulse his foundation was very stable and had improved on the early stages of the True Mystic Rank.
Due to the fact his mental energy level had reached the True Lord Rank and could summon Heaven Earth Yuan Qi his cultivation speed was several times faster now.
Adding on the fact the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi here was several times denser than the Azure Flower Continent Zhao Feng had a 50% chance to reach the late stages of the True Mystic Rank with five or six days of seclusion.
But now Zhao Feng's plan changed.
After entering this inheritance which happened once every ten years Zhao Feng couldn't waste any time.
Now that he had sensed the little thieving cat Zhao Feng would have another helper.
An hour later.
Zhao Feng entering a large yet dangerous mountain. Types of flying birds and beasts appeared out of nowhere.
At this point in time the connection with the little thieving cat was becoming stronger.
"It's very close now."
Zhao Feng cautiously locked onto canyon hundred to two hundred miles out.
Around there were a couple dozens of geniuses but they didn't dare go in easily.
The mysterious canyon was filled with a weird wind that could rip True Human Ranks into shreds and most True Mystic Ranks found it troublesome as well.
Boom-- plop!
A couple True Mystic Rank geniuses rolled out of the canyon, ruffled.
Two of the late stage True Mystic Rank geniuses were injured and blood leaked from their mouths.
In terms of strength they were on par with Overwhelming prodigies from the Sacred True Dragon Gathering.
"This weird wind's so strong! Without the cultivation of the True Lord Rank it would be hard to protect oneself. Even if a True Lord Rank met the strongest wind they would be troubled."
Zhao Feng was secretly surprised.
If this mysterious canyon was so dangerous but these geniuses didn't want to leave, it meant the fortune inside was quite well.
Amongst the group.
Zhao Feng saw Chi Gui and company from the Black Cliff Palace. Apart from them there was also another force led by a blood robed youth at the early stages of the True Lord Rank.
The blood robed youth had a blood moon mark on his forehead and gave off a bloodthirsty aura.
Zhao Feng thought of the blood corpse protector and Scarlet Moon Demonic Religion from this aura.
If he was correct this blood robed youth should be from the two-star sect the 'Moon Demon Palace' and was more than ten times stronger than the Scarlet Moon Demonic Religion.
When Zhao Feng arrived both the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace had tried to enter the mysterious canyon but ended in failure.
There were also a few nearby one-star clans around who tried to enter but left corpses that weren't even in human shapes anymore.
Of course, after paying a price the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace found some patterns.
"The weird wind here changes with a certain pattern. Even True Human Ranks can be safe in the places of the weakest wind and the strongest winds can even kill True Lord Ranks. If we form a group, then take the best route we can decrease the rate of injury and death."
"As long as we pass by this place and enter the core of the canyon, there'll be many treasures there and definitely won't have this weird wind."
The two True Lords of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace started to interact.
Only by taking more people in would they be able to gather all the resources.
While Chi Gui and the blood robed youth were discussing Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye also saw the change in the weird wind.
When the weird wind blew, Zhao Feng could copy the places where the strongest and weakest parts of it went.
After ten times of copying Zhao Feng found a pattern.
For the next few times Zhao Feng used the pattern and predicted which areas would have what strength of wind and what changes there were.
Once one grasped the pattern the threat of the wind dropped by at least 70%.
Of all the geniuses present probably only Zhao Feng had this ability to find this pattern through detection.
After all, the canyon's radius was about a hundred miles and was comparable to a normal city. If it were someone else, they would take days to scout out the area and then they still had to find the pattern….
The Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace both paid a price and found an incomplete pattern due to luck.
Go!
This time Chi Gui led a group of ten elites along a route into the mysterious canyon.
The Moon Demon Palace went along another route.
"Both these groups are going near the mountain wall and although the overall strength of the wind decreases, it's not the best path."
Zhao Feng watched them with his eyes then turned into an azure streak of lightning that closed in on the mysterious canyon.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye hadn't seen the little thieving cat before meaning that it had probably entered the core of the canyon.
Xiu!
The air hummed with lightning and Zhao Feng passed into the mysterious canyon.
"Hmm? What clan is that person from? It seems to be just one person."
"Its speed is too fast, could it be a beast?"
At the entrance of the canyon was still some geniuses of 'smaller forces.'
Although they were 'smaller forces' that was only compared with the three two-star sects. Behind them were forces that were all around the Scarlet Moon Demonic Religion's level.
Zhao Feng didn't speed past the canyon.
At times, he would stay at the same spot for a while, while at other times he would retreat.
But without a doubt, he would face the weakest wind every time and it would be blocked easily with his Three Flowered Treasured Lotus.
Putting aside Zhao Feng, even Shi Chengtian's defense would be ripped into shreds by the stronger winds.
Therefore, Zhao Feng's progressing speed was much slower than the Black Cliff Palace's and Moon Demon Palaces.
However, this was also Zhao Feng's intention.
The Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace weren't alone and the strength of the two True Lords far exceeded him.
Finally.
Through two hours of dodging Zhao Feng entered the depths of the canyon by walking past the areas of weakest wind.
The weird thing was that once he passed the stone area the weird wind disappeared.
The depths of the canyon was filled with a dense Heaven Earth Yuan Qi that was ten times better than the other areas of the Purple Saint Ruins.
Zhao Feng felt an ancient aura sweep by and as if he had entered the forests of ancient times.
There was weird flowers and forests here that was extinct in the outside world.
A tree had reached a hundred yards and its branches extended for miles, about the size of a village.
Every flower and wood here was heavily influenced by the dense Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and almost exceeded the limits of normal plants.
Simply said, every piece of wood or dirt here could be sold for hundreds or thousands of primal crystal stones.
This place was literally filled with cold.
"If I cultivate here the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi is about a hundred times stronger than the Azure Flower Continent. It's hard to imagine how many treasures are here."
Zhao Feng was stunned.
At this time the sound of battle and roar of beasts came from within the depths of the forests.
It was obvious that the other parties had met something in the mysterious canyon.
Zhao Feng quickly turned around a leapt onto a high rock to survey the area with his God's Spiritual Eye.
His God's Spiritual Eye scanned across every rock, every piece of wood including the flowers and underground.
Just by the first scan alone Zhao Feng was overjoyed.
The number of treasures here was unimaginable.
Just by looking once Zhao Feng found dozens of weird treasures with the first look alone and their values was enough to make the eyes of the True Lord Rank go red.
Even the rock Zhao Feng was next to contained something valuable.
Peng!
Zhao Feng shattered the rock and revealed a slightly wet plant.
On the plant was a few small black fruits around the size of a thumb and its skin had a weird line.
With his God's Spiritual Eye Zhao Feng found that the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi contained within these fruits was enormous and exceeded anything he had seen in the Azure Flower Continent.
"What is this black small fruit?"
Zhao Feng felt a pure surge of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi when he picked off these fruits. The awkward thing was that even with his knowledge he didn't know what it was.
"This is the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King which is slightly biased towards the ice element and contains a pure and large amount of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi. It can instantly recover a True Spirit Realm's Qi of True Spirit and at the critical moment increase one's battle power back to its peak. Apart from that this fruit can cleanse the body and is very effective for those under the True Lord Rank. With your current state one fruit alone can give you more than 50% chance of rising a small level."
The casual but enticing voice of a female sounded from the mountain wall behind.

Chapter 399 - Betrayal!
"... This fruit can cleanse the body and is very effective for those under the True Lord Rank. With your current state, one fruit alone can give you more than 50% chance of rising a small level."
Zhao Feng's figure froze, and cold sweat started to appear on his back.
Although the voice of the female behind was extremely nice to hear and solved the answer to his question, he hadn't sensed the female and she was within a few dozen yards of him.
Of course, this might be because she had no killing intent or could control herself well.
At the same time, a very familiar aura appeared nearby.
Zhao Feng turned around and looked at the girl in green as if nothing was wrong.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat sat on the girl dressed in green's shoulder and looked gloatingly at Zhao Feng.
Little thieving cat!
Zhao Feng's heart jumped as he had many thoughts.
The inside of the mysterious canyon wasn't small, and the terrain was complex. It was obvious he was the girl's target by coming from behind.
The solution was known to all.
If she didn't have the little thieving cat's help, how would it be so easy?
The green dressed goddess inspected Zhao Feng: "You're the little cat's owner? You don't belong to any of the three forces but is able to enter the Purple Saint Ruins. Interesting."
Zhao Feng's eyes twinkled. This girl's cultivation had reached the late stages of the True Lord Rank and was even stronger than Chi Gui. She was probably outside of his limit.
Zhao Feng could guess her identity. When he had entered the canyon the name 'Ye Yanyu" had been spoken with respect or love.
"Little thieving cat, why did you betray me? When did I mistreat you?"
Zhao Feng didn't bother with Ye Yanyu and said coldly to the little thieving cat.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws towards Zhao Feng in dissatisfaction before lying lazily next to the beauty.
Ye Yanyu smiled: "This cat is extremely intelligent and has an ancient bloodline. You forced it to sign a blood pact with you when it was just born and weak. How would it be loyal to you?"
Zhao Feng paused and thought about how Li Fuluan in the Floating Crest Palace had indeed helped him sign a blood pact with the little thieving cat.
At this moment the little thieving cat had brought a powerful enemy to its owner. No matter how you looked at it, one could see it's heart of betrayal.
"So what? The little thieving cat's my spiritual pet. Since you know that it's signed a blood pact with me, do you want to take it by force?"
Zhao Feng snickered coldly.
Blood pact was extremely strong and could control its life or death.
And at this point if the owner Zhao Feng died, the little thieving cat would also be injured.
Unless…. Zhao Feng willingly dissolved the blood pact.
Ye Yanyu couldn't not know this, but seeing that she still came over with the little thieving cat, she must have her plans.
"As long as you say how you came into the Purple Saint Ruins and willingly dissolve your blood pact with the little thieving cat, I won't trouble you and will instead recommend you into the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect. With your talent and cultivation, you will become at least an inner disciple and maybe even have the chance to become a core disciple."
Ye Yanyu smiled and said.
Her voice was soft to the eye and 'using power to force him' had turned into helping Zhao Feng.
Of course.
For most geniuses and Zhao Feng, entering the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was a leap.
A two-and-a-half-star force was more than ten times stronger than the Ten Great Clans of the Azure Flower Continent.
Some of the subordinate clans of even the Pure Moon Spiritual Clan even had the strength of the Scarlet Moon Demonic Religion.
"One, entering the Purple Saint Ruins was an accident that even I don't know the reasons, so I can't tell you."
"Two, the little thieving cat is my spiritual pet. I won't give it to anyone."
Zhao Feng said decisively.
This was especially so for the second as once the pact between him and the little thieving cat was broken Ye Yanyu would have no more worries with dealing with Zhao Feng.
Currently.
Ye Yanyu really liked the little thieving cat and was even of wary attacking Zhao Feng.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat made some actions to Ye Yanyu.
"Oh? You want to break the blood pact even with the risk of death? Relax, I'll make him do it."
Ye Yanyu touched the little thieving cat's head and reassured.
She couldn't help for sorry for it. How cruel was Zhao Feng for the little thieving cat to risk death to break the blood pact?
Xiu--
Zhao Feng turned into a flash of lightning and left behind an afterimage.
In the next instant he charged into the forests and disappeared.
Run!
Zhao Feng knew that Ye Yanyu's cultivation had reached the late stages of the True Lord Rank and was much stronger than the Flooding Lake City Lord, probably on the Deputy Patriarch of the Iron Blood Religion's level. He had no chance in a head on clash.
Shua!
Zhao Feng's figure started to fade in the trees and he created a Yin Shadow Doppelganger that went in the opposite direction to lure the opponent.
However.
Just as Zhao Feng had ran one or two miles a goddess seemed to appear out of nowhere in front of him and smile.
"So, this is the strength of the late stage True Lord Rank."
Zhao Feng's heart fell.
He gritted his teeth and sent a flower of ice and lightning towards where Ye Yanyue was at.
Huang!
The nearby forests were destroyed and scorched.
Zhao Feng's expression froze before the dust even settled.
Ye Yanyu still stood on a tree and a liquid barrier enveloped her.
Not only was she completely unharmed, even all the trees and leaves were all there.
"That move just then was comparable to the overwhelming prodigy level…."
Zhao Feng was surprised.
Ye Yanyu seemed to be very satisfied with Zhao Feng's expression.
Shua!
Ye Yanyu left an after image behind on the tree.
Not good!
Zhao Feng was about to move but with a 'pa' a slender hand clasped his shoulder.
A wave of Qi of True Spirit as great as the ocean instantly sealed the Qi of True Spirit within his body.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat threw out the Mystic Snake Blood Whip and captured Zhao Feng with a smug smile.
"How's my suggestion from before?"
Ye Yanyu smiled faintly.
"There's no way at all."
Zhao Feng said decisively: "If you use force I'll bring the little thieving cat down to my grave as well."
No matter what Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat had a blood pact and once this was signed the spiritual pet's life and death was in its owner's hands.
"You can ask for whatever you want as long it's not too excessive. Of course, I won't let you go before you break the blood pact."
Ye Yanyu felt her head hurt.
She had already displayed her strength and the opponent couldn't fight back at all.
However, Zhao Feng had the killing card of the blood pact and at worst he could suicide.
"What I want?"
Zhao Feng felt his heart move, the negotiations was looking good and seeing Zhao Feng moved, Ye Yanyu let out a breath.
Everything in this world had a price, including spiritual pets. As long as Zhao Feng set a price, Ye Yanyu would believe.
"Firstly, you need to provide my safety and not restrict my freedom such as sealing my Qi of True Spirit or binding my limbs."
"Secondly, what I get in the ruins belong to me. If I need your help you will help me."
Thirdly, after we leave the ruins you need to make me a disciple of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect."
Zhao Feng asked his requirements.
Ye Yanyu immediately agreed to the first. In her eyes Zhao Feng wouldn't be able to escape her fingers.
"I won't restrict your freedom, but you can't leave within three miles of me."
Ye Yanyu said.
She had also agreed to the second but only said she would help Zhao Feng three times.
As for the rewards if Zhao Feng got them by himself she wouldn't interfere. For example, the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King would be Zhao Feng's.
The third was also what she wanted.
Zhao Feng had entered the Purple Saint Ruins very weirdly and the elders of the Sect needed to investigate.
Furthermore, once Zhao Feng was in the Elders' hands, maybe the blood pact could also be solved easily. At that time Ye Yanyu would have the advantage.
"Lastly, I'll only break the blood pact if you do all the tasks and the little thieving cat is willing."
Zhao Feng said his requirements and Ye Yanyu had agreed but made slightly adjustments.
"Little thieving cat, let go of your previous owner."
Ye Yanyue smiled and purposely emphasised the word 'previous'.
Zhao Feng was expressionless as Ye Yanyu released the seal on his Qi of True Spirit and Zhao Feng immediately left after regaining his freedom.
"Although your speed isn't bad, you have no chance against me."
Ye Yanyu warned.
Zhao Feng didn't bother replying and went back to the mountain and sat down.
However, he then took out the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Yanyu paused.
"I'm going into seclusion."
Zhao Feng ate the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King and closed his eyes to cultivate.
"Seclusion?"
"As you said before I have a 50% chance of reaching the late stages of the True Mystic Rank by eating this Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King and you…. Will protect me."

Chapter 400 - Breakthrough
According to the promise Ye Yanyu would help Zhao Feng three times and without any hesitation, Zhao Feng used one of the times to increase his strength.
Although this mysterious canyon was full of danger and there were many geniuses around, who would dare come close with a late stage True Lord Rank here?
"Fine, I'll guard you."
Ye Yanyu was angry but found this funny at the same time and a mocked smile appeared on her face.
To her it didn't matter whether Zhao Feng was at the early stages or late stages of the True Mystic Rank.
As long as she tried Zhao Feng couldn't fight back.
The difference between was too big; they weren't on the same level.
Therefore, if Zhao Feng reached the late stage True Mystic Rank or even the peak stages of the True Mystic Rank Ye Yanyu wouldn't mind. Unless Zhao Feng could break through to the True Lord Rank, that would only bring her a little trouble.
Zhao Feng knew what Ye Yanyu was thinking hence asked her to help protect him while he broke through.
He closed his eyes as the energy from the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King was released and a pure surge of energy circulated around his body.
According to Ye Yanyu Zhao Feng had a 50% chance to break through after eating the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King and this was Zhao Feng's conclusion as well.
In reality, the difference between the early and late stages of the True Mystic Rank was quite big and normal experts in the Azure Continent would take ten years in that environment.
However, this was the Purple Saint Ruins and the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi in the Purple Saint Ruins was more than ten times purer than the Azure Flower Continent.
Furthermore, this canyon was extremely ancient, and the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi here was ten times more than the other areas of the Purple Saint Ruins.
This meant that Zhao Feng was in a cultivating environment a hundred times faster than the Azure Flower Continent.
This was just the first point.
Secondly, the water heart pulse Zhao Feng had eaten before had increased his foundation and cultivation.
Thirdly, Zhao Feng had the mental energy of a True Lord Rank and this was the key point.
Once one's mental energy level reached the True Lord Rank they could summon Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and this allowed Zhao Feng to rise in cultivation rapidly.
"Only by having the mental energy level of a True Lord Rank would I be able to fully absorb the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King or else it'll just leak away."
Zhao Feng became warier of Ye Yanyu when he thought of this.
Adding on these factors Zhao Feng only had a 50% chance and this meant that Ye Yanyu had seen Zhao Feng had the mental energy of a True Lord Rank.
"But she shouldn't be able to see my God's Spiritual Eye's aura and the sealed Source of True Spirit within my body that I can burn any time."
Zhao Feng thought.
Ye Yanyu came from a two-star sect and her cultivation, strength and knowledge were all high.
Although she had seen Zhao Feng had an eye bloodline she wouldn't put it to heart. Chi Gui from the Black Cliff Palace also had an eye bloodline, but didn't he go around in circles when he saw her?
Four hours later.
Zhao Feng had almost fully absorbed the energy from the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King and this credit came from his True Lord Rank mental energy. If it were someone else, they wouldn't have any chance of hope.
After that Zhao Feng started to use the 'core' of the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King's power.
As time passed Zhao Feng's aura rose and Ye Yanyu stayed true to her word, only going around in a three miles radius to gather some resources.
There was the occasional genius that came nearby but immediately retreated when they sensed Ye Yanyu's aura.
The nearby beasts were also chased away by here hence giving Zhao Feng a safe and quiet environment.
At a certain moment in time.
Zhao Feng's aura had reached its limit.
With a 'Weng' he felt the Qi of True Spirit within his body flow smoother.
At the same time his body was filled with a powerful energy. Just his body alone almost had the strength of a True Mystic Rank.
After all, the Sky Dark Pearl Fruit King's core had the use to cleanse the body and supported the water heart pulse.
"My body and cultivation had both risen."
Zhao Feng nodded his head.
He opened his God's Spiritual Eye and saw Ye Yanyu and the little thieving cat were gathering some rare minerals.
"En, there's still some time."
Zhao Feng also put some time into the black lotus.
The black lotus was space where it could store ghosts and contained the air of death.
Amongst these the two green bronze ghost corpses were the strongest and their battle power came close to the peak True Mystic Rank.
Apart from that there was a bit more than a dozen other corpses, skeletons, etc that ranged from the True Human Rank to late stages of the True Mystic Rank.
Zhao Feng released the aura from his God's Spiritual Eye and these ghosts trembled on the ground as Zhao Feng put his mental energy symbol onto them.
After doing this he then 'fed' them to the two green bronze ghost corpses.
The girl before definitely wouldn't be willing to do this as the range of ghost corpses could handle a range of situations.
However, Zhao Feng needed two meat shields or bodyguards and therefore didn't need to worry that much.
Zhao Feng specialised in mental energy and didn't need the Yin spectres at all.
The remaining ghost corpses within the black lotus was soon eaten and the two green bronze ghost corpses absorbed the air of death, Yin, corpse etc.
"I just need a day and a half for these two green bronze ghost corpses to reach the peak True Mystic Rank battle power."
Zhao Feng nodded his head. He didn't need to do anything now.
Perfectly at this moment.
Ye Yanyu and the little thieving cat arrived outside where Zhao Feng was in seclusion.
"I've wasted a lot of time guarding you."
Ye Yanyu glanced coldly towards Zhao Feng and the latter rose and followed behind Ye Yanyu.
Ye Yanyu lead the way at the front towards the depths of the canyon and didn't worry Zhao Feng running away.
This mysterious canyon had many items from the ancient times and some were extinct in the outside world.
While Zhao Feng was walking, his God's Spiritual Eye would find some rare plants or treasures and he would take them.
At the beginning Ye Yanyu didn't pay attention to it but after multiple times she realised that Zhao Feng found more treasures than her, a late stage True Lord Rank and understood why Zhao Feng said he would take all the things he found.
"Looks like his eye bloodline doesn't specialise in battle but in support and inspection."
Ye Yanyu didn't put it to heart.
Being a chosen one of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect, she had seen many geniuses with eye bloodline and amongst them many had been defeated by her.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat suddenly threw its old coins in the air then pointed in a certain direction.
Zhao Feng glared at it. Every time the little thieving cat lead the way there wouldn't be a good outcome. Thinking about how he had entered the Hundred Graves Forbidden Ground last time, Zhao Feng was still scared.

Chapter 401 - Ancient Giant Scorpion
Even if the little thieving cat had 'changed owners' it still had its divination characteristic.
Ye Yanyu believed it without a doubt.
Ever since she had met it, her luck had been good. Even this canyon was directed by the little thieving cat. In her heart the little thieving cat was now her 'lucky cat.'
Zhao Feng expressionlessly followed the two.
According to the little thieving cat's path a plain appeared from in front and the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi here was more active. Any grass nearby was one or two humans tall.
Roar!
Peng Peng Bam!
From the plains came the roars of beasts and heavy footsteps.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye had already caught sight of some powerful large beasts and if he were here alone he definitely would retreat.
One had to know some beasts outside in the Purple Saint Ruins could be compared to the True Lord Rank, and this was the mysterious canyon.
However, the Ye Yanyu this powerful True Lord opening the path, Zhao Feng didn't need to worry.
As they entered a hundred yards into the plains a massive horde of several yard-tall metal bull with spikes on its back appeared. Their bodies were tough, and their footsteps made the ground tremble.
"Iron Back Raging Bull, a beast with faint ancient bloodlines. Strong but easy to anger and can usually crush several beasts of the same level to death. When it gets angry, its bloodline will be activated, and its battle power doubled."
Zhao Feng recognised this beast. Iron Back Raging Bulls were extinct in the Azure Flower Continent and were only heard of in ancient records and impure bloodlines.
This weakest of this horde of Iron Back Raging Bulls was at the True Human Rank and many were at the True Mystic Rank.
The strongest one's battle power came close to the True Lord Rank and was this horde's 'King.'
Zhao Feng and company entering their territory instantly caused them to attack.
The Iron Back Raging Bulls had a fiery attitude and ancient bloodline. Even if a True Lord Rank came they would have the courage to fight.
Boom--
Hundreds of Iron Back Raging Bulls caused the earth to shake as they charged over to Zhao Feng and company.
Ye Yanyu smiled and waved her hand as a line of cold intent flashed.
From the surface it seemed Ye Yanyu's attack was soft and calm, as if there wasn't much power.
However, Zhao Feng's pupils constricted as shock appeared in his face.
Back then at the Sacred True Dragon Gathering Yu Tianhao and Xin Wuheng's fight seemed simple but their control had reached the limit. Each and every action contained intent which allowed them to kill others of the same level like ants.
This situation had also appeared on Ye Yanyu, but was much more perfect.
Bam Bam Bam--
Where the line of silver passed, the bodies of the Iron Back Raging Bulls suddenly froze.
In the next instant.
Dozens of Iron Back Raging Bulls spurted out fountains of blood as they fell dead and dyed the ground red.
Others might not be able to see anything, but Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye could clearly see the faint silver line pass straight through the bulls' skin and their organs.
This meant that every bull had been pierced through with countless holes.
No matter how strong their defense was their organs were still stabbed by countless dots and left them with no life.
Ye Yanyu's casual move instantly killed dozens of bulls and Zhao Feng definitely wouldn't have this ability as the defense of these bulls were strong and he could one with one palm or glance each but to kill dozens at once was something even the True Lord Rank's would find hard. Ye Yanyu killing this large amount of Iron Back Raging Bulls angered and scared the remaining horde.
The eyes of these bulls with red with fury as a dark red light started to appear on their bodies and their battle powers rose.
"The battle power of these bulls has doubled."
Zhao Feng felt a large pressure and his blood stiffened.
After being enraged, these bulls were definitely able to attack those at the True Lord Rank.
The Iron Back Raging Bull King was ten yards wide and six to seven yards tall. With a roar it summoned a gust of chaotic wind and its battle power was comparable to the True Lord Rank.
If it was Zhao Feng he definitely would hide as far as possible.
Ye Yanyu smiled and floated onto the Iron Back Raging Bull King's back.
Wu~
A ripple of moonlight surrounded Ye Yanyu's body, making her seem like a goddess as she forced the Iron Back Raging Bull down.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat excitedly waved its Mystic Snake Blood Whip and absorbed the blood essence of the Iron Back Raging Bull King.
"So that's how it is."
Zhao Feng started to think.
The strength that the Iron Back Raging Bull King displayed when it was angry was the early stage True Lord Rank and Ye Yanyu could kill it easily.
However, the little thieving cat's Mystic Snake Blood Whip could increase in strength after absorbing blood essence and it had now already exceeded normal Mid-Tier Spiritual grade weapons, just slightly below Zhao Feng's Luohou Bow.
Shua!
Zhao Feng touched the black lotus and summoned the two green bronze ghost corpses to feed on the flesh of the Iron Back Raging Bull.
At this point in time the two green bronze ghost corpses were comparable to the peak True Mystic Rank and eating flesh containing a faint ancient bloodline was beneficial for them.
Ye Yanyu just glanced at it but didn't say anything.
These Iron Back Raging Bulls or Zhao Feng's green bronze ghost corpses were just ants in her eyes that could be destroyed with one finger.
A while later.
The Iron Back Raging Bull lost all its blood essence and died, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat arrogantly puffed its chest out after the satisfying meal and caused Ye Yanyu to giggle.
Zhao Feng remained expressionless and would take a couple treasures on the way.
Ye Yanyu was at the front killing the stronger beasts and Zhao Feng just followed behind reaping the rewards.
These bodies were worth an entire city in the Azure Flower Continent and Zhao Feng's hands got sore from picking up things and blamed that his interspatial ring wasn't big enough.
Ye Yanyu seemed to be very casual and would only pick the precious materials. She was obviously rich and had resources dozens of times better than the Ten Great Clans.
Up to now.
From the place ahead came some soul shaking howls and the entire mountains and clouds was filled with a fearsome aura.
Zhao Feng's blood twitched, and his Qi of True Spirit was suppressed as his bloodline sensed something.
"The aura of an ancient bloodline more than ten times purer than the Iron Back Raging Bull."
Zhao Feng's heart jumped.
This was the first time he had felt such a powerful bloodline aura after entering the Purple Saint Ruins.
In the depths of the plains in front of a large cave was more than a dozen figures that were battling with a large black scorpion.
Ding Ding--
The large black scorpion had a faint metallic glow and the attacks only made sparks.
Some of the attacks from the peak True Mystic Ranks weren't even able to leave an obvious mark on it.
The over a dozen figures present were maintaining a distance with it and were very cautious.
There were already four to five corpses on the ground from the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace.
"Everybody watch out, the poison from this scorpion will kill everyone under the Origin Core Realm and anyone that gets hit by it will die so maintain your distance."
The nose pierced 'Chi Gui' ordered the geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace to fight with the scorpion.
Apart from Chi Gui there was also the blood robed youth from the Moon Demon Palace and even the two combined weren't able to suppress the ancient scorpion.
If it weren't for the fact the geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace had a large number of corpses, skeletons and other things that were resilient towards poison, probably no one could fight with the scorpion in close combat.
Shua Shua!
Right at this moment.
Ye Yanyu and Zhao Feng arrived, and they saw this situation.
"This ancient giant scorpion's bloodline is very high and even the two True Lord Ranks and this many geniuses can't handle it."
Zhao Feng was cautious.
Even normal True Lord Ranks didn't dare face the scorpion head on. If Zhao Feng was to go up extra lives wouldn't do a thing.
Chi Gui controlled a silver lined True Lord Rank skeleton and four to five others near the True Lord Rank that held back the ancient giant scorpion.
Because they were already dead, they weren't scared of the scorpion poison.
Ye Yanyu revealed a solemn look: "This scorpion's bloodline is very rare and better than the geniuses in the Purple Saint Ruins. Furthermore, it had some worries and hasn't used all its power."
Hearing this Zhao Feng agreed.
The bloodline of this scorpion was extremely powerful and even Zhao Feng's bloodline was pressured.
This was because its bloodline was extremely pure and wasn't something an Iron Black Raging Bull with faint bloodlines could be compared to.
"If the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace combined will find it hard to take it down, why are they fighting it?"
Zhao Feng was puzzled.
What benefits did this have for the two sects?
He then inspected the situation and soon understood.
Behind the scorpion was a large cave of which an aura came from.
The True Lords of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace had tried to distract the scorpion away but ended in failure.
This ancient large scorpion had guarded the entrance and wouldn't move.
"This bastard's not falling for it."
Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord's luring had ended in failure.
Because it needed to guard the entrance the ancient large scorpion couldn't use all its power or else the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palaces' casualties wouldn't be this little.
Ye Yanyu obviously saw this as well and her charming eyes turned towards the cave behind the scorpion.
"There's definitely something important in the cave that needs the scorpion's protection. It might be a treasure that even makes a highly intelligent ancient giant scorpion guard it even to its death."

Chapter 402 - The Little Thieving Cat's Plan
Ye Yanyu and Zhao Feng both watched and didn't interfere.
Zhao Feng knew he wasn't enough to turn the tide and Ye Yanyu just wanted to watch both sides get injured and watched with a smile.
The two forces fighting the ancient large scorpion weren't retards and looked towards Ye Yanyu with wary.
"There's a change in the plan, Ye Yanyu is here."
The nose pierced Chi Gui suddenly waved his hand and let the Black Cliff Palace side rest.
Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord from the Moon Demon Palace exchanged glances and then both sides retreated.
Since they couldn't take the scorpion down in a short amount of time and the latter would only protect the cave, they didn't need to finish it off right away.
When Chi Gui saw Zhao Feng, his white eyes constricted.
Although he hadn't personally see Zhao Feng, he was very familiar with his aura.
If it weren't for Ye Yanyu, the people from the Black Cliff Palace would probably have killed Zhao Feng.
"As long as I'm with Ye Yanyu no one in the Purple Saint Ruins will probably attack me."
Zhao Feng knew this very clearly.
In terms of cultivation Ye Yanyu had reached the late stages of the True Lord Rank and surpassed the Chi Gui and the other True Lord.
Furthermore, Ye Yanyu came from the most powerful Pure Moon Spiritual Sect and was ranked within the top three in the Ten True Lords.
Only if Chi Gui and the blood robed youth teamed up would they be able to fight Ye Yanyu.
Invisibly.
Ye Yanyu had become one of the greatest protectors of Zhao Feng.
If he was alone it would be hard for him to survive in the Purple Saint Ruins and would be ten times more difficult to fight for inheritances.
Shua Shua!
Chi Gui and the blood robed youth faced off Ye Yanyu and the three started to talk.
"Ye Yanyu you came just in time, team up with us and kill this scorpion or help distract it."
Chi Gui suggested.
The blood robed youth nodded his head.
The two of them weren't the ancient large scorpion's match and even if they could kill it, who knew how many would die.
Now that Ye Yanyu had arrived, it was better for her to help instead of just watching both side lose casualties.
Firstly, they could reduce their losses and have a greater chance of beating the scorpion.
Secondly, Ye Yanyu was alone and the amount of rewards she would get would be less than theirs after they entered the cave.
Therefore.
Chi Gui and the other True Lord's suggestion was smart.
Ye Yanyu stood still and didn't say anything.
Seeing this the blood robed youth quickly added: "Goddess Ye, Brother Chi's ghosts just went inside and there's heaps of treasures there. The reason the ancient large scorpion is blocking the cave is because there's a couple pure young blooded 'ancient scorpions.' I believe Goddess Ye can also think of this."
"Oh, pure blooded young ancient scorpions?"
Ye Yanyu revealed a look of interest.
Everyone had seen how strong the ancient large scorpion was and didn't even need to fear four or five True Lord Ranks at once.
The bloodline of the scorpion was extremely powerful, and its poison could even kill True Lord Ranks.
If it weren't for the fact the ghost corpses of the Black Cliff Palace perfectly countered this poison, then even if another two True Lord Ranks came it wouldn't change a thing.
Ancient beasts with rare bloodline were extremely precious in the outside world and worth more than normal mature beasts.
Young beasts were easier to take in as spiritual pets and their loyalty would be very high.
If they gave it to the sect it could become a protector spiritual beast of the sect when it grew strong.
Personally, it could grow with its owner and become a great helper.
"This scorpion is perfect for offense and defense, it's poison is also critical…."
Zhao Feng found that this ancient giant scorpion's abilities were almost perfect, and he couldn't help but compare it with the little thieving cat.
In terms of battle power and damage the little thieving cat was far behind and could only be a diviner.
Zhao Feng's actions fell into Ye Yanyu's eyes and a smile appeared on her face.
"The Heaven Earth Yuan Qi within the cave is extremely unique and to be guarded by an ancient scorpion as well as you trying so hard means that there shouldn't just be the young scorpions inside, right?"
Zhao Feng interrupted coldly.
Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lords both paused and looked towards the blue haired youth.
Zhao Feng had always stood behind Ye Yanyu and they didn't know his situation, but if he dared to interrupt and Ye Yanyu didn't say anything, maybe he now belonged to the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's side.
"With this brat's bloodline strength, he might be heavily used for Ye Yanyu."
Chi Gui and company became warier of Zhao Feng.
The Black Cliff Palace had met Zhao Feng's methods before, but they would never guess Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu's relationship right now.
Ye Yanyu too lazy to say anything missed the chance for her to truly understand Zhao Feng's strength.
"Cough cough, it's like this. There are indeed a couple treasures in there such as the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom, Blood Glass Fruit, Life Returning Grass etc."
The blood robed youth said and Ye Yanyu was even moved.
Anything what he had said just then was enough to make the eyes of True Lord Rank's go red and be eyed upon by those at the Origin Core Realm.
Earth Yin Poison Mushroom: Must be grown in a place of extreme Yin and for ten thousand years plus. This mushroom is a perfect material for ghost corpses and at the same time is one of the resources to create deadly poisons.
Blood Glass Fruit: An extinct treasure that can greatly increase cultivation and had double effect on cultivators of the Dao of Blood and is created from the gathering of the essence of blood Yin.
When Zhao Feng heard these two items his heart started to thump.
Even Ye Yanyu's expression changed.
"This Blood Glass Fruit is definitely a Sovereign tier treasure in the Azure Flower Continent. If the Scarlet Moon Religion Patriarch isn't dead and instead severely injured, just one or two will help him recover. If I can get one I can reach the True Lord Rank even if I'm not a cultivator of the Dao of Blood."
Zhao Feng's heart sped up.
This Blood Glass Fruit gave Zhao Feng the chance to turn things around.
If a Blood Glass Fruit was given to a late stage True Mystic Rank or peak stage True Mystic Rank, it's energy might be wasted.
However, Zhao Feng had the mental energy level of a True Lord Rank and could absorb most of its energy. If he ate one and went in seclusion for ten days or half a month breaking through the True Lord Rank was certain.
Putting aside the True Spirit Realm, the Blood Glass Fruit was even beneficial for those at the Origin Core Realm.
Unfortunately, this treasure was now extinct on the Azure Flower Continent.
The other Earth Yin Poison Mushrooms and Life Returning Grass were also on the same tier at the Blood Grass Fruit.
"Hm, Life Returning Grass…."
Zhao Feng suddenly thought of something
Life Returning Grass: A treasure created by the Heaven and Earth. As long as you have one wisp of life it can heal your injuries. The Elixir of Life from it can also heal injuries and extend life."
Suddenly a voice appeared in Zhao Feng's mind: "If you really want to repay me, reach the top twenty in the Sacred True Dragon Gathering and if you're able to get some Elixir of Life, Life Restoring Pills or similar life items, I'll be extremely grateful.""
Back at the main headquarters of the Iron Blood Religion the thick eyebrowed elder that Tiemo had recommended Zhao Feng to had said this.
Because of that elder Zhao Feng was able to step into the Dao of the Soul and increase his eye capabilities.
The Elixir of Life that the mysterious elder mentioned could be made from the Life Returning Grass and the Life Returning Grass was more precious than the Elixir of Life.
At this moment in time Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu finally understood why the ancient scorpion blocked the cave.
It wasn't just protecting its child, it was also guarding treasures.
"We'll kill this scorpion together then split the rewards inside depending on our ability."
Chi Gui and company didn't hide anything.
If there wasn't enough benefits Ye Yanyu wouldn't be used by them.
Zhao Feng could already imagine that the Blood Glass Fruit and other treasures weren't just the only ones inside.
Thinking up to here his heart was filled with excitement.
Soon.
The three True Lord Rank's teamed up and attacked ancient scorpion.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect, Moon Demon Palace, Black Cliff Palace teamed up for once.
Hu~ Shua Shua!
This time Chi Gui summoned two True Lord Rank ghost corpses and there was a blood silver ghost corpse instead of the silver striped skeleton than before.
These two were two to three yards tall and had a dim aura. They weren't scared of the giant scorpion's poison and went to block it.
"This Chi Gui has two True Lord Rank ghost corpses."
Zhao Feng was surprised and envious.
They played a key role in whether they could slay the scorpion.
A brutal blood moon blade with a chaotic aura appeared in the blood robed True Lord from the Moon Demon Palaces' hand.
Weng~
He slashed the blade and the air became filled with a blood moon that kept on eroding the scorpion.
Ye Yanyu's strength was even stronger than Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord. She waved her hand and a line of silver rippled and formed a transparent water silver sword.
When she attacked even the ancient scorpion's eyes were filled with wary.
Chi Gui and the blood robed youth were also wary as they looked at each other.
"This Ye Yanyu has trained the Moon Flower Spiritual Sword Technique to such a high level. One sword from her can probably slash my True Lord Rank skeleton into two."
Chi Gui was stunned.
"No one's probably her match under the Origin Core Realm."
The blood robed youth took a deep breath.
Of the three sides the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace had each used over a dozen people whereas only Ye Yanyu had attacked from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect, but it was enough to shock the other two sides."
"Looks like her battle power is very likely at the Deputy Patriarch of the Iron Blood Religion's level."
Zhao Feng raised his opinion of Ye Yanyu.
At the same point in time.
The eyes of the little thieving cat in the corner flashed with cunningness as it exchanged glances with Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng looked deeply at it. Thieving cat, oh thieving cat. Although your plan is smart but it's extremely dangerous. That Ye Yanyu and the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect behind her wasn't just terrifying.

Chapter 403 - Feeding the Corpses
The Purple Saint Ruins was controlled by the three sects and other forces couldn't obtain it.
The geniuses that entered here all belonged to their respective parties and had their own inheritance tokens.
An 'outer genius' not belonging to any of the three had entered this Ruins and would have to compete against an enormous group of other geniuses by himself.
However.
With the little thieving cat's 'betrayal', these problems were solved.
Although Zhao Feng had been captured by Ye Yanyu, his identity of being an 'outsider' had been solved.
At least he wasn't trying to be captured by everyone now and Zhao Feng seemed to have entered the strongest 'Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's' side, and the enemies were helpless.
What he needed to do now was to use his identity as the 'fourth person' to watch the three sects battle and reap the rewards at the critical moment.
This was the general direction of the plan and intelligence and courage was the important point.
This plan was started by the little thieving cat.
It had purposely attracted Ye Yanyu to Zhao Feng and although this seemed dangerous, in reality it actually protected Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat knew what was in each other's heart and acted out this show.
Of course.
There was an extremely high risk in this plan.
Once they were found out Zhao Feng would enter a desperate state never before; at least he had no chance of resistance against Ye Yanyu.
"The greater the rewards, the greater the danger."
Zhao Feng's eyes twinkled then returned to his emotionless state.
Every step was critical; a misstep could result in absolute failure.
However, Zhao Feng was calmer during this moment even though his blood seemed to boil with excitement and adrenaline.
At this instance.
The combination of the three True Lords and elites of the True Mystic Rank fought a fierce battle against the ancient giant scorpion.
The ancient giant scorpion's defense was extremely powerful and even True Lord Ranks found it hard to break through it.
Its poison would also kill those at the True Lord Rank. Luckily Chi Gui from the Black Cliff Palace had two True Lord Rank ghost corpses that could do close combat.
The blood robed True Lord Rank waved his blade of the blood moon and the large blood coloured moon started to erode the ancient scorpions' injuries.
As long as there was a little cut, the blood robed True Lord's attacks would enter and even erode the insides of the body.
If it were a normal True Lord Rank, Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord Rank together would be able to finish off in an instant.
However, this ancient giant scorpion's body and life force was extremely strong, and the two True Lord Rank ghost corpses could only do a tiny amount of damage.
The attack of the blood robed True Lord also couldn't break through the scorpion's defense directly and could only slowly erode it.
The main worker was Ye Yanyu.
Her Moon Flower Spiritual Sword Technique controlled the transparent water silver sword and every attack would represent the tens of thousands of beams of a sword.
Every time Ye Yanyu attacked, she would be able to leave a gash of blood on the scorpion.
If it were another True Lord Rank Ye Yanyu's profound sword technique would be able to kill them in a move or two whereas the scorpion was only injured by seven to eight swords.
"This ancient scorpion is indeed worthy of being a rare beast with a pure bloodline. Even a half step Origin Core Realm expert wouldn't be able to beat it head on."
Zhao Feng couldn't help but admire as he watched from afar.
This meant that the younglings inside the cave would be extremely hot-handed.
In theory, the battle power of these three True Lord Rank's combined with the group of elite True Mystic Ranks would be comparable to seven or eight True Lord Ranks.
Ye Yanyu alone was on par with three to four normal True Lord Ranks and Chi Gui was comparable to at least two since he had two True Lord Rank ghost corpses.
This setup was still only able to suppress the ancient scorpion and not finish it off.
"The ancient scorpion's only guarding the cave but if it wasn't to run then the difficulty would rise by several times."
Zhao Feng saw the situation very clearly as an outside.
Of course.
He couldn't just watch; he needed to help as well.
Beng~ Sou- Sou--
A couple eye catching arrows of ice and lightning clashed heavily onto the giant scorpion's shell and brought a gust of cold wind and lightning with it.
The power contained within these arrows of ice and lightning was close to the normal True Lord Rank.
Furthermore, every time these arrows of ice and lightning hit the target they would explode and although they wouldn't physically harm the scorpion, it could slow them down.
"Hmm?"
Many geniuses turned towards Zhao Feng with some surprise.
Zhao Feng's long-range attack was strong and could slow down the giant scorpion, very effective for the team.
The giant scorpion's decrease in speed lowered its threat greatly.
Although those from the Black Cliff Palace hated Zhao Feng, they had to admit this guy's help was just below the three True Lord Rank's.
Only a small number of attacks excluding those from the three True Lord Rank could be on par with Zhao Feng's and their efficiency wasn't very high as they needed to watch out for the scorpion's counter attack whereas Zhao Feng didn't since he attacked from a long range.
The numbing and decreasing speed effect was something the other geniuses couldn't do.
Even Ye Yanyu nodded her head. From Zhao Feng's current display, he could at least become an Inner disciple in the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
The only thing was that his history was unknown.
As time passed by.
The giant scorpion's injuries deepened, and the blood robed True Lord Rank's eroding attack entered its organs.
Zhao Feng's arrows of ice and lightning furthered its decrease in speed.
Ye Yanyu was very smart and first tried to cut off the scorpion's tail and its limbs to unbalance it.
At the end the scorpion couldn't withstand the intelligence and teamwork of the group and its attacks became weaker.
Most importantly, its tail and legs had been chopped off, so it couldn't run even if it wanted to.
"It can't fight back for much longer."
"We finish it within one hour."
Everyone's battle intent rose, and their attacks became stronger.
Boom!
Finally, the giant scorpion the size of a small mountain fell onto the ground.
Before it died it counter attacked fiercely and ripped two Moon Demon Palace geniuses that were a couple yards away into pieces.
Another genius from the Black Cliff Palace was poisoned by it and died within a couple breaths.
Everyone felt lucky. The last counter attack from the scorpion could even instantly kill True Lord Rank's.
The silver striped skeleton of Chi Gui's had been cut into half but luckily it was a dead item and so could be recovered with enough materials.
Zhao Feng had already flashed out of sight the second the giant scorpion arrived and hid between a crack in the mountains.
When the giant scorpion died Zhao Feng instantly charged towards the corpse.
Ye Yanyu glanced towards Zhao Feng with thought. The last counter attack from the scorpion seemed to be in Zhao Feng's direction.
While they fought Zhao Feng's ice and lightning arrows obviously infuriated the scorpion but unfortunately, he was too far away.
Next.
The three sides started to discuss how to split the rewards of the ancient scorpion.
Ye Yanyu wasn't very interested in the scorpion's body apart from the most precious inner core and claws. Her key focus was the younglings and the treasures in the cave.
However.
Zhao Feng had already taken out a sharp knife and cut through the broken skin to take out a black sack the size of a fist.
This was the ancient scorpion's poison sack.
"En, I only want this."
Zhao Feng put the poison sack away.
The reason why he put so much effort in before was because of this.
Ye Yanyu was a pure righteous goddess and definitely wouldn't be interested in this dirty poison sack.
"This is the poison sack of the ancient scorpion and its value is only below the scorpion's inner core."
Those from the Black Cliff Palace were instantly unsatisfied.
In reality, the poison sack was very useful for those of the Black Cliff Palace.
They trained the Dao of Corpses and Ghosts. When poisonous items were added onto them, it was like adding wings to a tiger.
Without a doubt the poison sack of the ancient giant scorpion was perfect, but Zhao Feng's speed was too fast.
His God's Spiritual Eye had already locked onto the poison sack's position and instantly took it.
The Black Cliff Palace could do nothing.
Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu had played a major role in killing the scorpion and everyone had seen how Zhao Feng was able to reduce the casualties.
Ye Yanyu didn't say anything as she wasn't interested in the poison sack.
Furthermore, according to the deal before whatever Zhao Feng got was his. He had put in a lot of effort and taking the poison sack was understandable.
After all, Zhao Feng was now half on the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's side and it was better if the poison sack was in his hands than in the Black Cliff Palace's.
Seeing Ye Yanyu didn't react the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace couldn't delve further.
The body of the giant scorpion was as big as a small mountain and apart from several precious parts, the flesh was also valuable, only that it was enormous and not easy to take away.
Shua Shua!
Zhao Feng touched the black lotus and summoned two green bronze ghost corpses to eat the flesh of the pure bloodline scorpion.
"Shameless bastard!"
"These two green bronze ghost corpses were originally ours but was taken by this brat and he dares to use it so openly?"
The expressions of those from the Black Cliff Palace weren't very well and they looked at Zhao Feng with gritted teeth and burning eyes.
Zhao Feng wasn't moved and did everything possible to increase his strength.
After taking the poison sack Zhao Feng's plan became clearer.
"After eating the flesh of the scorpion, these two ghost corpses are now completely on par with peak True Mystic Rank's and this poison sack is specifically prepared for the two."
Zhao Feng squinted his eyes as he inspected the two ghost corpses.
The bodies of these two ghost corpses were strong and a faint jade blood streak had appeared on their skin. With every bite their auras became stronger and stronger.
Compared with this, the ghost corpses of the same rank of other Black Cliff Palace disciples were much 'skinnier' and not as well treated as Zhao Feng's.

Chapter 404 - Professional Finder
The other geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace were different from Zhao Feng who had fed all the other ghost corpses to these two green bronze ghost corpses.
On the way Ye Yanyu had slain many rare beasts with bloodlines which were great food for the two ghost corpses.
The ancient giant scorpion had a very pure bloodline which made the auras of the two ghost corpses stronger and their bodies underwent an unknown change.
Apart from Chi Gui's two True Lord Rank ghost corpses, the other ghost corpses of the Black Cliff Palace probably weren't able to be compared to Zhao Feng's.
"The battle of these two green bronze ghost corpses is extremely strong and after adding the poison sack, even True Lord Ranks might die if poisoned."
Zhao Feng put his consciousness into the Six Ghost Corpse Controlling secret technique.
This skill had the requirements on how to add poison to the ghost corpses.
Zhao Feng had some knowledge on medicine and the poison corpse was a type of ingredient. It wasn't too hard to add it onto the green bronze ghost corpse.
However, Zhao Feng didn't do so immediately.
Although the poison was extremely deadly, its poison has lost some power after leaving the ancient scorpion.
That was the first point.
The second point was that although this poison even critically threatened those at the True Lord Rank, it was only if the skin had been cut open and the poison could enter the body.
It was almost impossible for the green bronze ghost corpse to directly break through a True Lord Ranks defense, especially if they were on guard.
Therefore Zhao Feng didn't immediately add it on.
Taking the poison sack was just the first step, there was many other factors that needed to be held onto.
The Black Cliff Palace side.
"Senior brother Chi Gui, if that kid put's the poison onto the corpse, the threat will be much greater."
The girl who originally owned the black lotus bit her lips and looked at Zhao Feng controlling the two green bronze ghost corpses with hate, fear and envy.
She never thought such a day would come when she handed the ghost corpses over.
With these two ghost corpses, no one under the True Lord Rank would be able to get close to Zhao Feng.
If Zhao Feng had this at the Sacred True Dragon Gathering, he could easily destroy Tantai Lanyue's spiritual pets.
"He's just a newbie that's just entered the Dao of Ghost Corpses and their true power won't be fully unleashed. Although the poison sack is precious, its poison will lose a lot of power after leaving the body and is worth far less than the Yin Poison Mushroom and Blood Glass Fruit in the cave. The Yin Poison Mushroom is a top tier item for ghost corpses."
Chi Gui said confidently.
In his heart Zhao Feng was unparalleled amongst those under the True Lord Rank and only those at the True Lord Rank could take care of him.
Compared with the poison sack he was more wary of Zhao Feng's eye bloodline.
Shua Shua!
Zhao Feng touched the black lotus and took back the green bronze ghost corpses.
As of right now the two ghost corpses had reached a limit and faced a strong bottleneck.
Furthermore, as the two had risen in strength very quickly they needed to have a solid foundation and when ghost corpses reached a certain level they would have intelligence.
Zhao Feng's two green bronze ghost corpses already have a bit of intelligence and with the rise in strength, they also needed a rise in intelligence.
What Zhao Feng did was use his Eye of Ice Soul to send a small flow of coldness to help consolidate the impartial soul in the green bronze ghost corpse.
In front of the cave.
The three parties tidied up a bit and decided to scourge the spoils of war within the cave.
"Everything that we get now depends on our ability."
The figure of the blood robed True Lord flashed as he disappeared into the cave.
The ancient scorpion had been taken care of and there probably wasn't much danger in the cave. The three sides were going to split the spoils.
Compared with the other Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu had a lesser advantage as they had less people and the number of treasures they would get would definitely be less than the other two sides.
"Let's go!"
Ye Yanyu took the little thieving cat and turned into a streak of light that charged towards the cave.
Her cultivation was the highest and her speed was also top tier and faster than the blood robed youth and Chi Gui.
On the way Ye Yanyu didn't even give a single glance towards the normal treasures.
Surprise flashed in Chi Gui and company's eyes.
"No wonder. Ye Yanyu works alone and therefore aims for quality and not quantity. If she can get all the top resources here, their value will surpass all the others combined."
Zhao Feng understood.
Ye Yanyu had her own plans right from the beginning.
She was alone and adding on Zhao Feng, that was only two and definitely couldn't be compared with the other two sides.
Therefore.
Ye Yanyu had given up on most of the normal treasures, only picking the best.
Both Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord would find it hard to do this but Ye Yanyu has this strength. The two combined might not even be her match.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat stood on Ye Yanyu's shoulder and occasionally waved the Mystic Snake Blood Whip to snatch some of the treasures nearby.
Both the eyes of Ye Yanyu and the little thieving cat were sharp.
The teamwork of the two and their speed in snatching treasures stunned and made Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord panic.
"We can't let her get her way."
"You guys go salvage the other treasures, we'll stop her."
Chi Gui and the blood robed youth ordered the others to take the other resources.
Sou Sou!
The two True Lord Ranks flew towards Ye Yanyu to compete for the other peak resources.
The situation now became clear.
The three True Lord Ranks had their eyes set on the best resources whereas the rest aimed at the mid-good treasures or good ones that had been missed.
After all, the three True Lord Ranks were competing against one another and would miss some good treasures from time to time.
Amongst them Zhao Feng was a professional 'gatherer of missed items.'
His God's Spiritual Eyes inspecting capabilities allowed him to see through walls and things that even the three True Lord Ranks missed.
Peng!
Zhao Feng suddenly threw out an arc of lightning and blasted the mud off a wall and took out a black transparent stone.
"Sky Marking Stone."
"This stone can strengthen the body and bones and even corpses when crushed into powder."
The eyes of the nearby Black Cliff Palace disciples lit up as they rushed over but Zhao Feng was too fast and over half had been taken by him.
Shua Shua Shua!
Zhao Feng's Yin Shadow Cloak flapped and his figure turned into several figures that were hard to be distinguished by those under the True Lord Rank.
Although he was taking the missed items, he had to maintain a certain distance between the three True Lord Ranks, not too fast nor too close.
If he was too close he could be hit by the remaining wave of energy from their battle.
If he was too far away Zhao Feng might miss some chances which would stop his plan.
Another while later.
Shuu!
Zhao Feng suddenly sliced open a wall and ripped two dark green gourds away.
"Green Spiritual Gourd, a mysterious item that can keep plants fresh and store eroding medicine…"
"So this is the Green Spiritual Gourd. I heard that a King at the Void God Realm once put his soul inside this as he was about to die and rebirthed and stole a body after a hundred years."
The geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace stared at Zhao Feng with greed and jealousy.
Those from the Black Cliff Palace were wary and slightly hesitant as they had seen Zhao Feng's terrifying eye bloodline before.
"Kid, hand over the Green Spiritual Gourd."
Two geniuses from the Moon Demon Palace that didn't care about the Pure Moon Spiritual Clan leapt towards Zhao Feng.
Although this Green Spiritual Gourd had no shocking power and couldn't increase one's strength it was a rare item and the legends of it gave it a high value.
Maybe even Sovereigns at the Origin Core Realm or Kings at the Void God Realm would be interested in it and collect one or two.
Eye of Heart!
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye faintly scanned across the two from the Moon Demon Palace and their figures instantly froze.
In the next instant.
Ding Ding Peng Peng--
The two attacked one another, their eyes filled with limitless greed.
"Hmph, when you're filled with greed, that's when there's a flaw in your emotions."
Zhao Feng snickered coldly in his heart.
When there was a flaw in one's heart Zhao Feng's Eye of Heart could even affect those at the True Lord Rank.
Zhao Feng picked up the two Green Spiritual Gourd's and followed behind the three True Lord Ranks so that he wasn't too far away.
The depth and space within this cave was bigger than imagined.
There was the occasional scorpion, snake, spiders or bugs that leapt out from time to time and geniuses would lose a layer of skin if not die if they met them.
Zhao Feng's heart was calm and kept on maintaining a distance with the three True Lord Ranks while also picking up precious resources on the way.
"Hmm? Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew."
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye found some drops of dew near some bamboo shoots and moonlight seemed to shine on it through tiny holes in the walls.
In this large cave with battle sounding everywhere, it was extremely hard to notice these couple drops of dew.
"The Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew exists in humid areas with both the purification of the sun and moon. The rarer Sky Yin Bamboo shoots take ten thousand years plus to form."
Zhao Feng couldn't but feel lucky he had copied the Ten Thousand Plant Illustrations from the Broken Moon Clan. He would also memorise information about rare treasures and beasts wherever he went.
Therefore Zhao Feng had a 'description' of the items which could determine which item they were when scanned by the God's Spiritual Eye.
"The Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew can not only balance the Yin and Yang within a body and increase cultivation. It can also increase mental energy and help those with high comprehension understand the laws of Heaven and Earth."
The nearby geniuses noticed Zhao Feng's actions and were surprised.
"What kind of luck does this brat have? He's found rare treasures wherever he goes."
"It's probably not luck but something to do with his eye bloodline."
The eyes of those from the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace were red with jealousy and almost tried to rob Zhao Feng.
There was also one or two here with eye bloodlines but their inspection powers were nothing compared with Zhao Feng's.
"Great, with this Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew my plan's success will be much higher. When my mental energy gets cleansed and increases in power it will be able to threaten those at the True Lord Rank."

Chapter 405 - Scorpion Younglings
The value of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew was far more precious than the others before.
It could cleanse one's soul and the ability to increase mental energy and allowing one to comprehend were all rare items.
Shua!
Zhao Feng quickly put a couple drops of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew into the Green Spiritual Gourd.
The Green Spiritual Gourd was a unique interspatial item that had the ability to store fresh items and the loss of energy from them would be kept down to a minimum.
For example, the poison sack that Zhao Feng got before would lose its poison after it left the scorpion's body but if it were put in the Green Spiritual Gourd, the loss would be reduced to a minimum.
"The value of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew is just below the Blood Glass Fruit, Yin Poison Mushroom and other top treasures."
"Thief, don't try to keep it all to yourself."
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace charged over.
Although the Green Spiritual Gourd and Sky Marking Stone Zhao Feng had found before were also top quality, their value and usefulness was nowhere close to the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew.
"If I can get a drop or two of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew and cleanse my soul the chances of me reaching the True Lord Rank will increase by 20-30%."
A couple peak True Mystic Rank geniuses used their secret techniques and hidden cards to attack Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng didn't panic as looked at a couple remaining drops of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew above him.
Shua!
His figure flashed and retreated dozens of yards and summoned the two green bronze ghost corpses in front of him.
"This dew isn't very effective if taken continuously. A couple drops is enough for me."
Zhao Feng smartly retreated and didn't take the remaining drops of dew.
Although he was strong he didn't want to become the enemy of more than a dozen geniuses.
There was already six to seven peak True Mystic Ranks here and most of the remaining ones were at the late stages of the True Mystic Rank, each with the strength of an overwhelming prodigy on the Sacred True Dragon Gathering.
"I only want one drop of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew."
"Anyone that blocks me shall die."
A total of seven or eight geniuses furiously fought over the drops of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew.
Zhao Feng ordered the two green bronze ghost corpses to go in front of him and try to make the other geniuses trying to approach him retreat.
Apart from the three True Lord Ranks Zhao Feng's strength was one of the top here and just the two peak True Mystic Rank ghost corpses alone were able to stop most of the others.
Of the remaining two drops of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew, both the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace got one each.
The fighting soon ended and the largest winner was obviously Zhao Feng.
In reality if Zhao Feng wanted to take all of the dew no one could stop him but if he did that then his strength would be found out by Ye Yanyu.
He had given up a couple drops of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew to conserve his strength and prepare for the future.
However.
Even though Zhao Feng had purposely went low-key the people from the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace payed attention to him.
"This brat's eye bloodline is great for sensing treasures. Keep an eye on him."
The two sides had decided on what to do.
Several people even watched all of Zhao Feng's action and an accidental glance of his to a certain direction caused them to dig a hole three foot into the ground.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but think that the others had really thought of him as a money god.
Unfortunately for the rest of the journey there was almost no treasures the same class as the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew.
Maybe it was because the three True Lord Ranks in front had realised that they had missed many top treasures and therefore slowed down a bit. The Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew was also valuable for them.
As for the not-so-good treasures Zhao Feng was too lazy to get them and became low key.
Those that were watching him were disappointed. Some gave up while others were unwilling.
Of course.
The best treasures went to the three True Lord Ranks, especially the little thieving cat and Ye Yanyu.
The combined rewards of Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord weren't even as much as Ye Yanyu's.
Ye Yanyu's cultivation, strength and speed stood at a peak and with the little thieving cat's help, was perfect.
"Little thieving cat, you are indeed my lucky cat."
Ye Yanyu liked the little thieving cat even more. The only problem left was that the blood pact between it and Zhao Feng hadn't been dissolved yet.
On the other hand Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord gritted their teeth in hatred towards the little thieving cat.
The little thieving cat would wave the Mystic Snake Blood Whip around and skilfully take the treasures.
Sometimes the treasures they were about to get would get taken by the little thieving cat's whip first.
This cat was extremely cunning and had to be guarded against at all times.
Ye Yanyu smugly glanced towards Zhao Feng who was behind, as if saying the little thieving cat is best suited with me.
Zhao Feng's expression was dim and didn't say anything.
At a certain point in time.
The footsteps of the three True Lord Ranks paused.
Ahead was a black hole around a hundred yards wide and from it came sizzles of heat.
In the hole was dozens of scorpion younglings, around the size of a cat or dog.
Scorpion younglings!
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye saw all of it and the hearts of the three True Lord Ranks jumped with joy.
There was a few dozen in the hole, many more than expected.
"Wait, although there's a large number of scorpion younglings, only a few have pure bloodlines like the ancient giant scorpion."
Zhao Feng concluded after scanning them with his God's Spiritual Eye.
Bloodline was about luck. It didn't mean that all the children would have a powerful bloodline or else from the ancient era to now, bloodlines wouldn't be this rare.
Across the Thirteen Countries there was only a couple dozen with bloodlines including Zhao Feng, Zhao Yufei and company.
Furthermore, there was only one true ancient scorpion and it has been killed by the group.
Therefore, it could only interact with other scorpions and the probability of their children having a pure bloodline was lowered.
Zhao Feng found that of the scorpions in the hole, only six or seven were about the same as the ancient scorpion.
The words 'about the same' meant their physical looks. This meant that their chances of having the bloodline was bigger, but not certain.
"Hahahaha…. A whole bunch of scorpion younglings!"
The geniuses behind were all extremely excited when they same this amount.
"Let's go everyone. Although not all of these may have pure bloodlines, they would still have some bloodline in them and are much stronger than normal spiritual pets."
Chi Gui ordered.
The three True Lord Ranks went first and their targets obviously were the younglings with the physical appearance similar to the old one.
Zhao Feng remained calm and didn't enter the battle.
In terms of bloodline purity the ones that the three True Lord Ranks were going for definitely had the highest chance of having a pure bloodline. However, no one else had the ability to fight against them and Zhao Feng remained low-key and wouldn't fight against them.
His God's Spiritual Eye also glanced across hole and nearby cracks.
Zhao Feng could see whether a scorpion had a bloodline or not.
He was slightly disappointed after looking around.
The further away from the hole they were, the colour of the scorpions were less pure and putting aside the three True Lord Ranks, even the other geniuses didn't want them.
They had all seen the true colour of the scorpion and it was pitch black with a metallic feel to it.
However, Zhao Feng would rather take his time and inspect all these scorpions whether their appearance was impure or not.
"Hmm?"
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye locked onto a corner.
It was a very small scorpion around the size of a baby's palm and hid in a crack in the wall, revealing a cold red eye full of hate as it watched outside.
From the outside it seemed as like an impure coloured scorpion and it was also tiny.
However Zhao Feng found something unusual when he looked at it.
Firstly, this scorpion seemed to be intelligent. Although it seemed to be the youngest it knew how to hide and was even pulling itself further in.
Secondly, the walls hardness could be comparable to a peak tier Mortal grade weapon but it had been clawed open by the impure coloured scorpion.
Finally.
Zhao Feng saw that the bloodline within this scorpion was similar to the ancient scorpions but also different.
"Could it be a variation of the giant scorpion?"
Zhao Feng's heart moved.
There was occasions of bloodlines leaving its original trajectory and become different, such as Changeable Bodies who Zhao Yufei and Sun Haoyuan had.
"Oh well, it doesn't matter. I'll take it first."
Zhao Feng opened his God's Spiritual Eye and tried to control the scorpion.
In this process Zhao Feng met a strong and resilient defense which made him overjoyed. Apart from bloodlines, mental energy was also an important factor in whether how far this scorpion could reach.
Shua!
Zhao Feng was still able to easily control this scorpion as his mental energy level was far higher than the young scorpion….
Sou!
The dotted scorpion flashed through the air and landed on Zhao Feng's hand.
Through close inspection Zhao Feng realised that the dots on the surface of the scorpion had disappeared and instead was replaced by a cold black metallic light with a few dark red dots, which looked more mysterious and wicked than the ancient giant scorpion.
"What kind of variation is this for it to be able disguise itself?"
Zhao Feng silently put this weird young scorpion into his spiritual pet bag.
Right at this moment.
The battle between the three True Lord Ranks had ended and Ye Yanyu had a joyful expression as she had taken two of the most pure blooded young scorpions.

Chapter 406 - Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye
In just a moment the young scorpions within the hole were split.
The three True Lord Ranks received the scorpions with purer bloodlines that weren't much different from the ancient giant scorpion.
Amongst them Ye Yanyue got two of the purest scorpions of which any one of them were worth more than the other two True Lords.
This wasn't just because of her strength. It was also because of the little thieving cat's help.
Unknowingly Ye Yanyue trusted and loved the little thieving cat more and the expressions of the blood robed youth and Chi Gui were slightly ugly. From the start till now they had been suppressed by Ye Yanyue and with the little thieving cat Ye Yanyue was like a fish in the water.
After the pure blooded young scorpions were split the groups gaze turned towards the nearby impure scorpions.
All of these scorpions would have the bloodline as well and although much fainter, they were still better than normal beasts.
Therefore, everyone was still happy to take them.
However, there was one person in the group that didn't move much from the start till now.
It was Zhao Feng.
He seemed to be watching a show and the process of him taking the young scorpion was done through his God's Spiritual Eye, silent and quick.
Who would have thought that without moving he would have received a variable young scorpion?
Zhao Feng concluded that the bloodline of the variable young scorpion he got was on the two of Ye Yanyue's level but was smarter and had a tougher mental will. Because it was a variable, it's potential was immeasurable.
"Eh, why isn't this kid moving?"
"Wasn't he the one that always had that bloody luck?"
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace looked suspiciously towards Zhao Feng and to divert attention Zhao Feng took out the Sky Marking Stone then grinded it into powder and then cast it onto the two green bronze corpses.
Ssssss!
The Sky Marking Stone powder started to sink into the corpses skin and was absorbed by their bones.
"This guy sure is free, even using the Sky Marking Stone to strengthen the bones of a corpse."
"What a waste! He's just throwing it on and not making into a solution."
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace looked at Zhao Feng's actions with envy and jealousy.
Zhao Feng remained unmoved and poured all of the powder evenly over the two then used a faint True Spirit Lightning Flame to help the ghost corpses absorb and strengthen their bodies.
Under normal situations Lightning Fire was the nemesis of ghosts but Zhao Feng found that a faint True Spirit Lightning Flame could instead help increase the speed of absorbing the Sky Marking Stone.
"The Sky Marking Stone can strengthen the body, but its energy is very chaotic and can easily leave behind hidden injuries. However, using this to strengthen corpses and dead items is very useful."
Zhao Feng murmured.
Chi Gui revealed a surprised look when he saw Zhao Feng use a faint True Spirit Lightning Flame to refine the ghost corpses.
Although Zhao Feng's hand actions seemed clumsy and unfamiliar, it could quickly absorb the rate of the Sky Marking Stone.
The two slightly puffy green bronze ghost corpses started to shrink under the True Spirit Lightning Flame and became bulky, but not puffy.
"Although the tiers of the two ghost corpses hasn't risen, their body and defense has increased and can ignore almost any attack from those under the True Lord Rank."
Chi Gui was secretly surprised.
After doing this Zhao Feng then used his eye ice bloodline.
Shuuuu!
The surface of the two green bronze corpses started to freeze and then were put back into the black lotus by Zhao Feng.
"Using the Lightning Fire to refine and then the ice to stabilize the corpses……"
Chi Gui was surprised more and more.
He would rather believe that this was all a coincident. How could a youth that had just entered the Dao of Corpses already know the refining techniques?
How would he know that Zhao Feng had already learnt 40-50% of the Six Ghost Corpse Controlling secret technique?
Most importantly, Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye seemed to be very talented in the Dao of Ghost Corpses and was used very smoothly.
"After being frozen for a couple hours by my ice eye bloodline, the body of these two green bronze ghost corpses will strengthen their tiers will rise a little bit."
Zhao Feng's consciousness came back from his black lotus.
Currently his two corpses were almost unparalleled under the True Lord Rank. Zhao Feng even guessed that maybe these two combined could block a True Lord Rank for a short amount of time.
Soon.
The three True Lord Ranks continued their way and Ye Yanyu didn't pay much attention to Zhao Feng refining his ghost corpses as she didn't like ghost corpses in the first place.
At this moment she was swimming in the joy of the rewards that the little thieving cat brought her.
All of this fell into Zhao Feng's eyes and he nodded his head: The first half of the plan was going very smoothly.
It could be said that the plan was even better than expected.
For example, getting the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew and Sky Marking Stone on the way.
Zhao Feng silently followed behind the three True Lord Ranks.
Suddenly.
A faint glow appeared on the wall ahead and the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi became more active.
Zhao Feng's eyes lit up. With such a good environment it was hard not for precious materials to grow.
As expected.
The figures of the three True Lord Ranks at the head stopped and happiness appeared on their faces.
"There is indeed one Blood Glass Fruit. If I eat it my Blood Demon Reflecting Moon and cultivation will increase by leaps and bounds. At that time my strength will reach the top three amongst all those present in the Ruins."
The body of the blood robed True Lord trembled lightly.
The Blood Glass Fruit was a very effective resource for cultivators of the Dao of Blood.
Even if it fell into the hands of other experts, it was still a treasure.
For example, Zhao Feng who had the mental energy level of a True Lord Rank. If he got the Blood Glass Fruit, he would be able to reach the True Lord Rank with half a month of seclusion.
At this point in time.
The cave had come to an end.
The wall ahead glowed and every inch seemed to contain incredible power and value.
On the wall grew a dozen ancient treasures, each and every one worth more than the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew that Zhao Feng found before.
For example, there was around four to five treasures on the Blood Glass Fruit's level.
The Blood Glass Fruit was around the size of a first and was bright fresh red in colour. It was juicy and gave off a dense Yuan Qi.
Zhao Feng stood at the back and scanned over the items hurriedly with his God's Spiritual Eye and soon found the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom and Life Returning Grass.
The Earth Yin Poison Mushroom was a dim and rotten mushroom whereas the Life Returning Grass was green and gave off a lively aura that made others nearby feel close to it.
"Earth Yin Poison Mushroom… this is a perfect material for ghost corpses. If I can get this the strength of my two True Lord Rank ghost corpses will rise dramatically."
Chi Gui suppressed the excitement in his heart.
Of the three only Ye Yanyu had furrowed eyebrows.
In this dim environment, most of the treasures were Yin based and not much of value to her.
"That Life Returning Grass can save a life if I took it back to the Sect and the Blood Glass Fruit can also help increase my cultivation."
Ye Yanyu's eyes twinkled and she started to discuss with the little thieving cat.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat made some actions.
"Good idea. I should destroy some of the items of the Wicked Path if they're of no use to me. This means that they won't get their way as well."
Ye Yanyu nodded her head and smiled.
The little thieving cat's plan was very deadly. Of the over a dozen treasures here not even one third was useful to Ye Yanyu.
She obviously couldn't give the remains to the other two sides and destroying was much easier than getting.
"Go! We can't let this bitch Ye Yanyu destroy our chance."
The blood robed youth and Chi Gui exchanged glances and both attacked Ye Yanyu when she made her move.
"Everyone go!"
The other elites of the peak True Mystic Rank also started to support Chi Gui and the blood robed youth.
In this critical moment both sides teamed up to face Ye Yanyu.
The frustration of the two True Lords of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace due to them being suppressed by Ye Yanyu all the way was finally released.
After all, the treasures on the wall was top tier and could help dramatically increase their strength. The two True Lords were willing to fight Ye Yanyu for it.
"Aye, why not just sit down and have a good talk?"
Zhao Feng pretended to sigh and retreated to a corner, signalling he didn't want to participate.
His strength was only below the three True Lords and seeing him retreat no one came to attack him.
In reality.
Zhao Feng loved this situation.
Chi Gui and Ye Yanyu also payed attention to Zhao Feng's actions. They originally thought Zhao Feng would try to grab a thing or two, but all Zhao Feng did was sit in the corner and seemed to be unmoved by the treasures on the wall.
It wasn't that Zhao Feng didn't want them, it was just that he couldn't.
These treasures had been blocked by the three True Lord Ranks and the remains of their battle could easily kill a peak True Mystic Rank.
Most importantly, this was the critical moment of his plan.
"Ye Yanyu, retreat ten yards and wait till I take a treasure or two."
The blood robed True Lord Rank waved the moon blade in his hand and the air seemed to be eroded by the colour of blood and keep on sweeping towards Ye Yanyu.
Go!
Chi Gui first summoned a True Lord Rank corpse to tangle Ye Yanyu in close combat.
"Black Wicked Eye!"
A dot appeared in Chi Gui's ghastly white eye.
Eye bloodline - Black Wicked Eye.
"Black Wicked Eye - Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye!"
Black circles started to appear Chi Gui's eye and a cold mental energy aura instantly enveloped Ye Yanyu.
Zhao Feng's heart jumped as he felt a screeching mental energy.
His God's Spiritual Eye saw pale ghosts reaching out their claws and stabbing, grabbing, biting around Ye Yanyu. This scene seemed to come directly from hell.

Chapter 407 - Waiting for a Pie to drop from the Sky
This was the first time Zhao Feng had seen such a weird and scary eye bloodline.
Invisible ghosts extended their white claws and kept on reaching for Ye Yanyu's body and opened their mouths and used their bloody tongues to lick greedily.
This scene in front of their eyes was similar to the Hundred Graves Forbidden Ground. It made one's bone chill.
This power was invisible, but it existed between the physical and mental energy world.
Although the naked eye couldn't see it, the body would instinctively feel cold and disgusted.
"Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye. Looks like Brother Chi Gui's going serious now and has even used this forbidden skill."
"Once someone is locked by the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye. Even True Lord Ranks might crumble and be eroded by the ghosts. Their blood essence will also be continuously eaten…."
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace were excited and expectant.
Under normal situations Chi Gui wouldn't use the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye easily as using this skill required a heavy price.
Ye Yanyu's eyebrows furrowed and felt that her battle power was being restricted.
Screeches sounded within her mind that shook her consciousness.
The most direct damage was that her blood essence was being lost continuously.
"This eye bloodline is indeed terrifying and troublesome. Unfortunately, it needs to gather souls and then used a secret technique to use it."
Zhao Feng felt slightly regretful.
His God's Spiritual Eye couldn't copy every skill since many were based on special attributes or bloodlines.
For example, Chi Gui's Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye was based on his Black Wicked Eye.
However, Zhao Feng wasn't afraid of the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye.
His Lightning Fire God's Eye countered most of the techniques of the Black Cliff Palace, including the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye.
At this point in time Zhao Feng was instead worried for Ye Yanyu.
"If Ye Yanyu loses then my plan will be forced to change, and the difficulty will rise by several times."
Zhao Feng silently watched and didn't participate.
His plan could smoothly progress as long as Ye Yanyu suppressed the two True Lord Ranks or were on par with the other two.
"Hmph, so the Black Cliff Palace only knows these wicked side tricks after tens of thousands of years? No wonder they're ranked last of the three Sects."
Ye Yanyu suddenly snickered coldly.
Purifying Moon Sky Essence!
Ye Yanyu shouted and her arms spread. At this moment she seemed to be holy and virtuous.
Instantly a bright moonlight shone from her and everything within a ten yards radius including grass, rock and stone started to evaporate.
"Ahhhh!
The ghosts surrounding Ye Yanyu started to screech after being shone on by that virtuous light.
Even the True Lord Rank silver striped skeleton started to smoke.
Ye Yanyu's Purifying Moon Sky Essence could counter the Dao of Ghost to a certain degree and instantly dissolve the trouble.
However, at this moment in time the blood robed True Lord Rank also used a deadly skill.
"Blood Moon Devouring Spirit!"
The blood robe of the True Lord Rank flapped, and a blood moon started to form in the air.
The large blood moon caused limitless blood moonlight to drop down and clashed with Ye Yanyu's Purifying Moon Sky Essence, causing green smoke to bubble.
Furthermore, a large mouth opened in the blood moon that locked onto Ye Yanyu.
Ye Yanyu's expression changed as she felt a power pull her body towards the mouth.
The Blood Moon Devouring Spirit could also directly absorb the blood of the target even from far away.
"Heh, this Blood Moon Devouring Spirit was an extremely dominant forbidden skill that can devour the essence of everything within a hundred yards radius. By concentrating it onto several yards, it's power rises dramatically."
The blood robed True Lord Rank laughed coldly.
His Blood Moon skills and Ye Yanyu's Purifying Moon skill countered one another to a certain level.
This move had helped Chi Gui and turned the tides around.
"Good!"
Chi Gui laughed and once again summoned the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye to block Ye Yanyu and kept on sucking her blood.
The secret techniques of the two True Lord Ranks didn't affect one another and instead helped each other as they were of the Yin element.
"Senior brother Chi Gui, we'll give you our all!"
"Brother Xue, we'll take down this bitch together!"
The disciples of the two sects supported from afar.
For example, those from the Black Cliff Palace summoned ghosts to increase the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye's power and the geniuses from the Moon Demon Palace poured their Qi of Blood Moon into the Blood Moon in the air, increasing the Blood Moon Devouring Spirit's ability.
Invisibly.
The power of the two secret techniques almost doubled and were truly able to suppress Ye Yanyu.
"Sky Moon Nine Slashes!"
A cold glint flashed in Ye Yanyu's eyes as a transparent sword appeared in her hand.
Shu Shu Shu--
The naked eye could only see eight or nine bright flashes of devastating moonlight slash towards the ghosts.
Boom!
These flashes caused the entire mountain to tremble with every strike.
Crack!
An arm of Chi Gui's True Lord Rank skeleton was cut off and cuts appeared on the Blood Moon as it started to destabilise.
The moonlight seemed to be able to cut through anything and even the surrounding ghosts were damaged.
"Sky Moon Nine Slashes. What a terrifying Sword skill. Each and every strike is able to kill a normal True Lord Rank head on. Furthermore, every strike is after the first and increases in power."
Although Zhao Feng wasn't the one facing it he could still feel the devastating power of the slashes.
When the Sky Moon Nine Slashes reached the fifth sword shock appeared in Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord's eyes and had signs of retreat.
The ghosts of Chi Gui's Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye screeched as they died, and his eye bloodline skill was forced to stop.
Shuu--
The sixth sword flashed through the air and sent Chi Gui's True Lord Rank skeleton back dozens of yards.
A bloody gash was left on Chi Gui's body and his face was slightly pale.
Immediately following that the eighth sword shattered the Blood Moon and the air was instead filled with limitless moonlight.
Wah!
The blood robed True Lord Rank spat out a mouthful of blood as he retreated and a wound straight to the bone could be seen.
As the ninth sword was about to condense Ye Yanyu's figure wavered and her face went pale white. Her blood essence and Yuan Qi was depleted, and the ninth Sky Moon Slash wasn't fully formed in the end.
"So that's what happened. Ye Yanyu could barely manage to use the Sky Moon Nine Slashes in the first place and after being damaged by the secret skills of the two True Lord Rank's, her ninth sword wasn't able to be unleashed."
Zhao Feng knew the situation better as a spectator.
Hu~
Both Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord let out a breath.
Up to now Ye Yanyu still had the advantage and injured both the opponents with Chi Gui suffering the heaviest losses.
Three to four disciples nearby had been killed and most of them were at the peak True Mystic Rank.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't interrupt the three True Lord Ranks.
In reality.
According to the plan Zhao Feng wouldn't and didn't need to do anything.
Zhao Feng's eyes twinkled then returned to its original casual expression.
At this point in time.
All three True Lord Ranks were in a stalemate and were injured. They were using every breath to rest and prepare for the next strike.
Zhao Feng felt it was boring and drank a drop of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Dew.
Weng~
Zhao Feng felt his mental energy begin to be cleansed and felt extremely refreshed, as if he had been washed by the sun and moon.
The Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew could cleanse and strengthen the soul while also healing the mind.
Another effect was to increase mental energy and comprehension.
After using this drop Zhao Feng felt his thoughts become clearer and his mental energy level was around the early stages of the True Lord Rank.
"After I fully absorb this drop my mental energy level will be fully consolidated on the early stage True Lord Rank level."
Zhao Feng's attention went back to the situation.
From the start till now he had sat on the same spot and had no signs to participate. It was as if he was just a spectator.
"This kid still has the mind to cultivate now?"
"Does he think a pie will fall down from the sky onto him?"
The geniuses of the two sects looked queerly at Zhao Feng and even the three True Lord Ranks paid attention to Zhao Feng from the corner of their eyes.
After all, Zhao Feng's battle power was top amongst those below the True Lord Rank and could change the outcome if he made his move in the end.
However, Zhao Feng sat still and didn't move.
Right at this moment the situation changed.
Shua Shua!
Both Ye Yanyu and the little thieving cat moved at the same time and leapt towards the treasures on the wall.
"Stop her!"
The expressions of Chi Gui and the blood robed youth changed instantly, and both intercepted her.
Shua!
The little thieving cat disappeared and Ye Yanyu used two Sky Moon Slashes to force back the two True Lord Ranks.
"Hehe, Life Returning Grass."
Ye Yanyu plucked out the holy grass.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved its Mystic Snake Blood Whip and pulled out the blood glass fruit.
"My blood glass fruit!"
The blood robed youth charged towards the little thieving cat with bulging eyes.
The little thieving cat smiled as it took the blood glass fruit then agilely jumped towards the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom and bit towards it.
"Stop…. My Earth Yin Poison Mushroom!"
Chi Gui exclaimed as he almost went crazy. This was a perfect material for upgrading ghost corpses.
However.
Ye Yanyu blocked them and they could only watch the little thieving cat take the blood glass fruit and swallow the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom.

Chapter 408 - Sitting
At this moment in time while others were fighting for the treasures, Zhao Feng was gaining comprehension from the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew.
He remained unmoved by the competition between the three True Lords Ranks and was expressionless even when the little thieving cat took the blood glass fruit.
Doing absolutely nothing.
He was like a saint that focused solely on cultivation. Everything else were just outside help after all.
"According to the plan, I won't need to do anything."
Zhao Feng's eyes occasionally twinkled.
From the beginning till now he had stuck to this point and didn't join in the competition between the three True Lord Ranks.
When the little thieving cat swallowed the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom, Zhao Feng nodded his head in secret. The start of the plan had succeeded.
However, the little thieving cat was now also in a dangerous situation.
It had taken the blood glass fruit, an item that could increase cultivation dramatically and was something the blood robed True Lord Rank would risk his life for.
"Leave behind the blood glass fruit!"
The blood robed True Lord leapt towards the little thieving cat.
"This fucking cat swallowed my Earth Yin Poison Mushroom…."
Chi Gui was so angry he started trembling.
Compared to the blood glass fruit he would rather want the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom.
He ordered the True Lord Rank skeleton to block Ye Yanyu while going for the little thieving cat himself.
"Little cat be careful."
Ye Yanyu revealed a look of worry.
The two True Lord Ranks had left her and headed straight towards the little thieving cat.
The little thieving cat had to run in the opposite direction as it couldn't go to Ye Yanyu and this direction was in Zhao Feng's path.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat flashed towards the sitting Zhao Feng.
"Little thieving cat…."
Ye Yanyu's heart moved and thought of something but she didn't stop it.
This 'part' would test the little thieving cat's loyalty.
Shua!
The little thieving cat disappeared when it landed on Zhao Feng.
"Brat, hand over the cat!"
The blood robed True Lord and Chi Gui charged towards Zhao Feng and the latter jumped up in fright.
This was two True Lord Ranks and not normal ones at that. He couldn't take them on.
This meant that the little thieving cat had brought a disaster upon Zhao Feng, the original owner.
"No wonder."
Ye Yanyu let out a breath.
"So, you want to use them to finish off me?"
Zhao Feng angrily pulled out the little thieving cat by the ears and threw it out.
His reaction was extremely quick and saw through the little thieving cat's 'plan.'
Sou!
The little thieving cat's Mystic Snake Blood Whip was still wrapped around the blood glass as it was thrown out.
"Leave the blood glass fruit behind!"
The blood robed True Lord Rank and Chi Gui leapt towards the little thieving cat with gruesomeness.
"Little cat!!"
Ye Yanyu immediately rushed over to save the little thieving cat and fought with the two True Lord Ranks whereas Zhao Feng sat back down again.
In this current situation Ye Yanyu and the little thieving cat had the absolute advantage.
The blood glass fruit and life returning grass had both been taken by Ye Yanyu and even the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom had been swallowed by the little thieving cat.
"Success."
Zhao Feng watched the chaotic situation and secretly looked inside his interspatial items.
Soon.
Zhao Feng found a rotten poison mushroom within his interspatial bracelet.
"Earth Yin Poison Mushroom…. Mine."
Zhao Feng revealed a joyful expression.
This was Zhao Feng's true target.
If Zhao Feng really had to choose between the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom and blood glass fruit, he would definitely choose the former.
"The Earth Yin Poison Mushroom is a top tier material for ghost corpses and even Chi Gui would go crazy for it. Once I use this on my green bronze ghost corpses, it can definitely reach the True Lord Rank."
Zhao Feng suppressed the excitement in his heart.
Furthermore, the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom had more effects that just this.
This was one of the main materials to create poisons.
"If this Earth Yin Poison Mushroom is used with my giant scorpion poison sack, the poison will be even deadlier and once my green bronze corpses reach the True Lord Rank and adds these two poisons, it'll be much more effective than increasing my strength."
Zhao Feng's eyes twinkled as he took a deep breath, forcing himself to be calm and he kept down the surge of excitement.
His plan had started ever since seeing the giant scorpion.
Firstly.
The poison of the giant scorpion could kill those at the True Lord Rank without almost any doubt. This showed how deadly this poison was.
Zhao Feng had also thought about how the poison would become weaker after being applied to the corpse and the corpses level wasn't high enough, so it couldn't threaten those at the True Lord Rank even with the poison sack.
Therefore.
The key point was still the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom.
"The Earth Yin Poison Mushroom can raise the ghost corpses strength and compensate for the loss of power in the poison sack and even strengthen it further."
Zhao Feng's most major step was complete.
He had the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom.
Just thinking about how a True Lord Rank ghost corpse with a poison that could kill those at the True Lord Rank was terrifying.
Shua!
Zhao Feng quickly put the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom into his black lotus item in the chaotic situation.
Another reason he chose the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom and not the blood glass fruit was because if he reached the True Lord Rank, it would cause Ye Yanyu to be aware and wary.
Therefore, if he wanted to keep on staying on the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's side it would be difficult.
Furthermore, after eating the blood glass fruit he would need ten days to half a month to reach the True Lord Rank and in this dangerous Purple Saint Ruins, where would Zhao Feng find the time? It wasn't just one step from the late stages of the True Mystic Rank to the True Lord Rank.
Hence Zhao Feng gave up on the blood glass fruit as it was too difficult.
"The Earth Yin Poison Mushroom isn't of much use to Ye Yanyu and wouldn't raise her attention after being taken by the little thieving cat. After all, the little thieving cat does eat a lot of resources daily."
A smile appeared on Zhao Feng's face.
At this instance who would have thought that Zhao Feng would have the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom by doing nothing?
Chi Gui still thought the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom was in the little thieving cat's stomach and was being digested. Even Ye Yanyu would be tricked.
The second the little thieving cat disappeared it had put the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom inside Zhao Feng's interspatial bracelet.
The little thieving cat had this ability when it was born, and Zhao Feng had a headache when his resources were eaten by the little thieving cat yet at this critical moment the little thieving cat's ability was useful.
Within the black lotus.
Zhao Feng controlled the situation inside with his God's Spiritual Eye.
The two green bronze corpses had a layer of ice covered over them and didn't move.
"Two corpses, one Earth Yin Poison Mushroom. It'll definitely be enough for one reaches the True Lord Rank and would have extra remaining, but it'll be wasteful."
Zhao Feng thought and finally split the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom into two, giving half each to the green bronze corpses.
This meant that the power of the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom would be fully utilised.
"With the strengthening of the Sky Marking Stone before they each have an 80% chance to reach the True Lord Rank with half an Earth Yin Poison Mushroom."
Zhao Feng calculated.
If he didn't get the Sky Marking Stone before and strengthened the two, Zhao Feng would focus only on one but now he decided on trying both as the poison was the key point in threatening the True Lord Ranks.
The two green bronze corpses soon ate the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom and the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom was indeed worthy of being a top tier item for enhancing corpses. When the two ghost corpses ate it, they started to smoke with the air of erosion and their strength rose rapidly within the black lotus.
"Only two to three days is needed for the strength of these two ghost corpses to be comparable to the True Lord Rank level and at most will just be a little bit off. After that I'll add the scorpion poison sack onto them. Hehehe, this is full of expectations…."
Zhao Feng retrieved his consciousness from the black lotus and at this point in time the battle between the three True Lord Ranks had entered the late stages.
Ye Yanyu and the little thieving cat took at least one half of the treasures and destroyed a couple others. If they couldn't get them, they could at least weaken the opponent.
If the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom that the little thieving cat swallowed fell into Chi Gui's hands, his battle power would rise dramatically.
Therefore, in Ye Yanyu's eyes the little thieving cat had destroyed the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom and weakened the chances of the opponent strengthening.
Chi Gui was filled with hate and unwillingness. If he could get the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom at least one of his ghost corpses would reach the late stage True Lord Rank.
One had to know of the ten True Lords that entered the Ruins only three had reached the late stage True Lord Rank.
Unfortunately, this perfect treasure had been eaten by the little thieving cat.
On the other side the blood robed True Lord Rank also grinded his teeth as the blood glass fruit was finally obtained by Ye Yanyu.
Although it wasn't the most suitable for Ye Yanyu it would still allow her cultivation to rise.
However, Ye Yanyu didn't immediately eat it as she didn't have the chance to.
She had been attacked by the forbidden techniques of the two True Lord Ranks before and was slightly injured. Although she suppressed the two in the end she paid a heavy price and the little thieving cat's contributions were immeasurable.
The treasures on the wall was soon split and Zhao Feng sat on the ground from beginning to end, never participating.
The geniuses of the three forces all looked weirdly towards Zhao Feng.
At this moment, Zhao Feng had almost fully absorbed the first drop of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Dew Shoot and his mental energy level was comparable to the early stages of the True Lord Rank.
Finally, he stood up.
"Goddess Ye."
Zhao Feng found Ye Yanyu.
"What?"
After a hard-fought battle Ye Yanyu was injured and her face was slightly pale.
"I want two drops of the Elixir of Life from the Life Returning Grass or half of the Life Returning Grass."
Zhao Feng said expressionlessly.
What?
Ye Yanyu wasn't sure if she had heard correctly.
She had fought for her life to get this life returning grass and this guy had done nothing at all and had just sat there the entire time. And now he wants half?

Chapter 409 - Blocking the Way
"What, this is possible?"
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace nearby looked weirdly towards Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng hadn't done anything at all and just sat at the back while the others fought for the treasures.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect side only had Ye Yanyu and she had crushed the people present alone.
After Ye Yanyu had had reaped the rewards he had asked for a precious life returning grass. Even those from the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace couldn't stand to watch such shamelessness.
However, Zhao Feng acted very confidently, as if he was certain Ye Yanyu would give it to him.
"Nice dreams."
Ye Yanyu gave the white eye to Zhao Feng.
She didn't mind Zhao Feng taking some of the shares from the giant scorpion as the organs inside were dirty and bloody.
However, the Life Returning Grass was different. Its value wasn't something a giant scorpion poison sack could be compared to.
Furthermore, the Life Returning Grass was a second life to anyone and Zhao Feng hadn't done a thing at all when they thought. Just thinking about this made Ye Yanyu angry. She was even hesitating whether to recommend him into the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect or not.
"According to our deal, you need to help me three times. Let this time count as one."
Zhao Feng said expressionlessly and Ye Yanyu paused.
According to the deal between them, this was indeed true.
Zhao Feng had already used one chance to help when Ye Yanyu had protected him and Zhao Feng was obviously going to the second chance right now.
"Hehe, our deal was that I would help you three times but doesn't include giving you free items."
Ye Yanyu smiled. She wasn't someone that would let Zhao Feng cut her up freely.
Zhao Feng fell silent for a moment before saying through gritted teeth: 'You're being shameless."
"My help to you can't obviously be without limit or restrictions. If you want me to die will I go kill myself? If you told me to give everything to you, will I have to?"
Ye Yanyu laughed coldly.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat clapped its paws together for Ye Yanyu with gloat.
Zhao Feng's eyes squinted and although Ye Yanyu had been deceived by him and the little thieving cat she obviously wasn't a retard that would give such easy benefits to him.
"Do you want the Life Returning Grass to save someone important life? If you dissolve the blood pact between you and the little thieving cat I can consider it."
Ye Yanyu's eyes flashed as she came close to the truth.
"Just owe someone a favour."
Zhao Feng turned and walked to the other side.
He had expected Ye Yanyu to not agree but Zhao Feng didn't panic. He still had two ways to get the Life Returning Grass.
At this time the geniuses of the three sides still scavenged the treasures nearby but Zhao Feng didn't participate.
After the fight all three True Lord Ranks were injured and Ye Yanyu walked out of the cave to find a calm place to recover.
"The erosion wound on my soul is so difficult to heal…."
Ye Yanyu sat cross legged with a slightly pale expression.
Her physical body had been lightly injured during the fight and the main damage was her blood essence as well as soul.
After all, in the battle Chi Gui and the blood robed youth had both used forbidden techniques which Ye Yanyu took head on.
Ye Yanyu used many precious spiritual pills which recovered her Yuan Qi but her recovery speed for her blood essence was much slower.
The hardest to heal was still the damage on her soul caused by Chi Gui's 'Wicked Spiritual Ghost Eye."
"The damage on the soul can't be healed quickly. Even if you use the Life Returning Grass, it'll only recover your life force but won't have much of an effect on your soul."
Zhao Feng said slowly.
"What? You know medicine?"
Ye Yanyu harrumphed and released her True Lord Rank aura to shake the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi nearby to signal Zhao Feng not make any moves as even if she wasn't at her peak she could kill Zhao Feng as easily as flipping her palm.
"I would think that you have one or two spiritual pills which help recover the soul but will take at least half a month and wouldn't guarantee the injuries to be fully healed."
Zhao Feng smiled faintly and Ye Yanyu was surprised because what he thought was almost the exact same as the situation.
This meant that Ye Yanyu needed at least half a month to reach her peak and the Purple Saint Ruins was filled with fortune including the core of the Ruins - the Ruins Treasured Palace.
"Luckily I found some Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew in the cave which can cleanse the erosion by the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye. If you get two drops of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew only two or three days will be needed to heal the injury on the soul. Plus, it won't leave behind any hidden injuries."
Zhao Feng smiled and said.
Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew.
Hearing this Ye Yanyu's expression changed.
She had obviously heard of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew's effect before. It could strengthen mental energy and comprehension. It was even useful for her who was at the late stages of the True Lord Rank.
Most importantly this was extremely effective to heal injuries of the soul.
"Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew…."
Ye Yanyu bit her lips.
In her current situation she desperately needed this item which could cleanse the soul and in terms of value the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew was only below the Life Returning Grass and blood glass fruit.
However, after saying this Zhao Feng became silent.
This was his second path and he didn't believe Ye Yanyu would reject this.
However, Ye Yanyu was very calm and didn't immediately ask to trade as she was worried Zhao Feng would rip her off drastically.
Zhao Feng was happy to wait and used another drop of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew in front of Ye Yanyu's eyes to strengthen his mental energy.
"The second drop of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew isn't that effective for me anymore but still can fully consolidate my mental energy level to the early stage True Lord Rank."
Zhao Feng started to comprehend and while Ye Yanyu was recovering Zhao Feng didn't forget the two green bronze corpses within the black lotus.
The air of death of the two green bronze ghost corpses started to consolidate and the smell of erosion was getting stronger.
In the blink of an eye two days had passed and the auras of the two ghost corpses were about the True Lord Rank level and the energy from the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom had almost been fully expended.
On the outside dark silver lines had replaced the green bronze and it was better to call it 'dark silver poison corpses' instead because the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom was a very deadly plant and the two ghost corpses already had a strong poison.
"Even if the giant scorpion poison sack isn't added on this dark silver poison corpses' poison is enough to threaten those at the True Spirit Realm."
Zhao Feng couldn't help but be filled with expectation.
His poison corpse plan was about 60-70% complete.
Next Zhao Feng secretly put the poison sack into the black lotus and then added it on the dark silver poison corpses in secret in the black lotus.
With the addition of the poison sack the silver lines on the two poison corpses were more obvious now.
"In terms of level these two dark silver poison corpses are barely at 80% of a True Lord Rank but with their poison, their true damage far exceeds normal True Lord Rank ghost corpses."
Zhao Feng inspected them with his God's Spiritual Eye.
As long as he raised them well these two dark silver poison corpses would be able to easily reach the True Lord Rank.
After three days of resting Ye Yanyu finally couldn't resist it and found Zhao Feng.
"Let's trade."
Ye Yanyu's voice sounded from behind and a smile appeared on Zhao Feng's lips as he traded two drops of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew for two drops of the Elixir of Life.
"Elixir of Life is now in my hands now."
Zhao Feng put the two drops into his green gourd and Ye Yanyu immediately used the two drops of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew to increase her recovery speed.
In this period, Zhao Feng travelled around the mysterious canyon trying to find some treasures.
Sou Sou Sou!
The geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace were heading this way as well as the leading Chi Gui had mostly recovered and saw Zhao Feng and the recovering Ye Yanyu from far away.
His eyes twinkled as it scanned over Ye Yanyu and Zhao Feng.
Even if Ye Yanyu wasn't at her peak, they didn't have the confidence to beat them.
"Brother Chi Gui, Brother Mo Yu has sent a ghost arrow letter saying he'll come over and support us."
A figure flashed and arrived.
"Great, Brother Mo Yu is even a bit stronger than me and we'll have a 60% victory rate against the soul injured Ye Yanyu. At the very least that blue haired brat and cunning cat won't be able to escape…."
A brutal smile appeared on Chi Gui's face.
The strongest genius from the Black Cliff Palace this time wasn't Chi Gui, but Mo Yu and Mo Yu also led a team that was even larger.
"Brother Chi Gui, that kid's coming."
The girl who originally owned the black lotus looked at the blue haired youth coming over in fear.
The newcomer was indeed Zhao Feng.
"Everyone please wait."
Zhao Feng confidently blocked the path of those from the Black Cliff Palace and Chi Gui and company's expression dimmed as they released their ghostly auras that would even make normal True Spirit Realms unable to breathe.
"Brat, how dare you block our way? Are you tired of living?"
"Brother Chi Gui let us kill him!"
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace grinded their teeth in hatred.
"Hmph."
The expression of the nose pierced Chi Gui fell as white flames seemed to glow in his eyes as he stared at Zhao Feng but didn't make any moves.
The confidence and calmness Zhao Feng displayed made him suspicious that there was a trick.

Chapter 410 - Trade
At this moment.
Zhao Feng blocked those from the Black Cliff Palace with confidence.
"Zhe zhe, does this brat want to take all of us alone?"
The geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace had mockery on their faces but the black lotus girl in the group had fear and wary in her eyes, not daring to underestimate Zhao Feng.
"Kid…. do you want to come to the Black Cliff palace's side? Since you're a genius in the Dao of Corpses I can consider recommending you."
White flames burned in Chi Gui's eyes as he licked his lips and glanced at Ye Yanyu two miles away out of the corner of his eye.
He had the confidence to slay Zhao Feng before Ye Yanyu arrived.
However, Zhao Feng didn't seem to have any traces of fear as he faced those from the Black Cliff Palace.
What was even weirder was that Ye Yanyu who was recovering didn't even seem to care about Zhao Feng's life.
All of this unusualness made Chi Gui suspicious.
Did Ye Yanyu really not care about Zhao Feng's life?
The eyes of those from the Black Cliff Palace twinkled but they couldn't make a decision as they were scared there was a trick.
In reality.
Chi Gui and company weren't wrong. Ye Yanyu did indeed not care about Zhao Feng's life but was worried if he died, the little thieving cat would also.
As for Zhao Feng he wasn't scared of the Black Cliff Palace because his mental energy had reached the early stage True Lord Rank and with two other dark silver poison corpses with the battle power of a True Lord Rank each, normal True Lord's weren't his match.
"Let's make a deal."
Zhao Feng said lightly in a casual tone.
Deal?
Chi Gui and company were first surprised but their faces was then filled with disdain yet before their response, Zhao Feng had opened his God's Spiritual Eye and scanned across the group.
Weng~
Those from the Black Cliff Palace felt their senses turn and suddenly appear in a simple building.
Within the building Zhao Feng sat on one side while Chi Gui and the others were on the other.
"Mental energy illusion? He put all of us into one?"
"This kid's mental energy illusions are indeed not simple and uses this method to communicate with us."
A couple of the genius' from the Black Cliff Palace looked at Zhao Feng in a different perspective and Chi Gui was slightly moved. Zhao Feng had created a mental energy illusion which was extremely realistic but most importantly, it had enveloped all of them.
He suddenly realised why Zhao Feng dared to face all of them alone.
Zhao Feng's mental energy level had reached the early stage True Lord Rank, not far different from Chi Gui.
If he used a mental energy skill everyone apart from Chi Gui wouldn't be able to block it.
"Kid, what do you want? What do you have to trade with us?"
Chi Gui immediately got straight to the point.
At this moment he didn't dare underestimate Zhao Feng.
Once Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu teamed up, all of them might be left behind.
Luckily he saw that there was a bridge between Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu as well and they didn't trust one another.
"I want the giant scorpion claws, Deadly Yin Crystal Bone and Ten Thousand Corpse Grass."
Zhao Feng asked for three materials and was certain that they had the giant scorpions claws.
When they were splitting the giant scorpion, the claws had went to the Black Cliff Palace.
As for the Deadly Yin Crystal Bone and Ten Thousand Corpse Grass Zhao Feng wasn't certain if they had it or not.
"The giant scorpion claws is easy to say, as we have four and trading one is fine. As for the Deadly Yin Crystal Bone it can increase the offense of a ghost corpse and is extremely rare. The Ten Thousand Corpse Grass is even more precious and can raise the ghost corpses cultivation and it's value is just below the Earth Yin Poison Mushrooms. Even if we had it we wouldn't trade it with you."
Chi Gui responded.
He was wondering what Zhao Feng needed this items for.
Soon.
A flash passed Chi Gui's eyes: "The giant scorpion claws comes from the large scorpion and is extremely sharp. Once it combines with the poison sack it' will be able to use the poison better. He wants the giant scorpion claw then use it with the poison and add it onto the ghost corpses…"
He was indeed worthy of being a True Lord Rank genius and soon found Zhao Feng's thoughts.
Zhao Feng was actually planning this. He would increase the sharpness of the ghost corpses and the claws worked in sync with the poison.
"The Deadly Yin Crystal Bone can increase the ghost corpses offense and only by increasing the attack power would the opponent's defense be pierced open and for the poison to take effect."
Chi Gui continued down this path.
"However, although the Deadly Yin Crystal Bone can raise a ghost corpses offense the ghost corpse still can't threaten those at the True Lord Rank in the end. Therefore he wants the Ten Thousand Corpse Grass to raise the ghost corpse to the True Lord Rank."
After finishing the analysis Chi Gui looked coldly at Zhao Feng.
Once Zhao Feng's chain of thoughts was complete his strength would greatly threaten the ten True Lords.
Chi Gui was now wary and cautious against Zhao Feng.
"We can't do this deal."
Chi Gui immediately declined and Zhao Feng wasn't surprised. Why would Chi Gui increase the opponent's strength?
However, if he found Chi Gui it meant that he had a certain amount of confidence even if it wasn't one hundred percent.
"I'll use two resources to trade. If you're not willing then nevermind."
After saying this Zhao Feng took out a drop of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew and a small piece of the Sky Marking Stone.
Zhao Feng still had three drops of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew left and was only planning to trade one.
There was originally one large piece of Sky Marking Stone but had been split into three by Zhao Feng to strengthen the two ghost corpses and this was the last remaining small piece.
When these two items were taken out Chi Gui's expression changed slightly.
"If I remember correctly, your True Lord Rank skeleton but slashed into two by the giant scorpion and the arm of the other True Lord Rank corpse had been cut off be Ye Yanyu. Is Brother Chi willing to heal them?"
Zhao Feng smiled faintly and Chi Gui didn't say anything.
Over the past couple days his two True Lord Rank corpses had barely been fixed and cost a lot of top resources but their battle powers had both fallen by a bit.
Coincidentally Zhao Feng's Sky Marking Stone could strengthen ghost corpses and he had to admit the Sky Marking Stone attracted him.
"If I can get a piece of Sky Marking Stone my two True Lord Rank ghost corpses will not only recover but even become a bit stronger."
Chi Gui's heart was moved but he didn't immediately speak.
"Hehe, a forbidden technique such as the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye must have a terrible backlash. One drop of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew doesn't seem to be enough."
Zhao Feng laughed lightly again and this time Chi Gui's expression changed dramatically.
He had paid a price for using the Wicked Spirit Ghost Eye and harmed himself after using it on Ye Yanyu who had higher cultivation.
Even though a genius from the Black Cliff Palace had given him a drop of the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew, he still hadn't fully recovered.
Even Ye Yanyu had to trade with Zhao Feng for two drops of Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew to recover.
"If you don't want to trade then I'll leave."
Zhao Feng slowly rose and waved his hand.
Shua!
Everyone felt their senses return to the mysterious canyon.
Everything just then was created by a mental energy illusion from Zhao Feng and no one apart from those at the Origin Core Realm or higher could see what went on.
"Wait."
Chi Gui gritted his teeth and called Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng seemed to look puzzled back towards those from the Black Cliff palace.
The reason why he suggested the trade meant he obviously had some confidence.
Currently Chi Gui's strength had decreased and needed the Sky Marking Stone and Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew urgently.
"If I can get these two items my strength will recover and might even rise by a bit."
Chi Gui made a decision and took out a claw as big as a tree from his interspatial ring then threw it onto the ground.
"Giant scorpion claw."
Zhao Feng nodded his head.
After that Chi Gui told another youth from the Black Cliff Palace to take out a dark silver crystal with a pained expression.
"Deadly Yin Crystal Bone."
Zhao Feng was very satisfied.
"We only have these two items. Even if we had the Ten Thousand Corpse Grass we wouldn't give it to you because the value of it is far more than the two you're giving."
Chi Gui said lowly and laughed coldly within his heart: "Without the Ten Thousand Corpse Grass your ghost corpse won't be able to reach the True Lord Rank level and no matter how poisonous they are and how sharp their attacks is, it won't be able to threaten me."
In reality Chi Gui and company really didn't have the Ten Thousand Corpse Grass. If they had it they would have used it on their own ghost corpses already.
"Fine."
Zhao Feng revealed a barely manageable expression.
The reason why he mentioned the Ten Thousand Corpse Grass was to mislead Chi Gui's 'thoughts' and make him think that he needed it to increase the level of his ghost corpses.
He wouldn't have thought that Zhao Feng had already increased the ghost corpses' level by using the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom.
This misleading could result in Zhao Feng hiding his cards and make the opponent underestimate himself.
He hadn't dreamed of getting the Ten Thousand Corpse Grass. Just getting the scorpion claw and Deadly Yin Crystal Bone was enough.
For safety Zhao Feng made Chi Gui send out two peak True Mystic Rank geniuses to trade with him as on the surface the Black Cliff Palace had an overwhelming advantage.
"This kid is very cautious."
Chi Gui nodded his head in agreement.
A while later Zhao Feng got his giant scorpion claw and Deadly Yin Crystal Bone while Chi Gui got what he wanted.
The two sides probably wouldn't have thought that they would have traded with one another.
"The giant scorpion claw can sharpen the claws of the two dark silver poison corpses and can slash through the opponent's defense, allowing the poison to take effect. The Deadly Yin Crystal Bone can increase the overall strength of the corpses."
Zhao Feng was overjoyed in his heart.
The Black Cliff Palace side.
Chi Gui and company had dim expressions with killing intent as they watched Zhao Feng leave.
"Senior brother, do you want to….."
A skinny youth waved his hand in the motion of cutting.
At this point in time Zhao Feng had his back towards them and was only a hundred yards away.
It could be said that this was the best time to attack.
"Does this brat really not fear us?"
Deadliness flashed in Chi Gui's eyes as he slowly raised a hand.
The geniuses from the Black Cliff palace all held their breaths and licked their lips in excitement. With one order they could splatter Zhao Feng's blood and take his life and treasure.

Chapter 411 - Bait Kill Fail
In the air of the canyon.
Black smoke rolled across the skies and everything within a ten-mile radius was dead silent.
Chi Gui stood at the middle and a white flame danced in his eyes. One hand was raised and killing intent was released.
Those from the Black Cliff palace had excited and gruesome expressions as they held their breaths.
At this moment in time even Ye Yanyu two miles away felt a chilling killing intent.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat yawned, as if it didn't care about its 'previous owners'' life or death.
"Little thieving cat, if he dies you'll also be dragged down."
Ye Yanyu revealed a worrisome expression.
She didn't care whether Zhao Feng died or lived but was scared that his death would also drag down the little thieving cat whom he had a blood pact with.
This strength of this dragging down depended on the distance between them, their cultivation, bloodline and soul strength.
However, it was obvious Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat were very close to one another and they didn't have massive differences between them.
Miao miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws and revealed a cold expression, signalling that even if it might die it'll bring down its previous owner.
"No, this is too risky. What if Zhao Feng decides to kill you first before he dies out of unwillingness?"
Ye Yanyu couldn't resist it and stood up.
There was only two miles between them and all Zhao Feng needed to do was block a moment or two and Ye Yanyu would arrive.
However, Zhao Feng had turned his black to those from the Black Cliff palace and was walking over slowly.
He didn't even seem to feel the cold killing intent from those behind.
"This brat…. Is he certain that I'll save him?"
Ye Yanyu was infuriated and stomped her foot on the ground.
Zhao Feng was too close to the Black Cliff Palace and once Chi Gui and company attacked Ye Yanyu wouldn't have the time to rescue him.
Yet.
In this critical moment Chi Gui's raised hand never lowered.
A rare sign of hesitation appeared on his face.
That's right, Ye Yanyu saw the clear sign of struggle on his face.
Even the geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace felt weird. Brother Chi Gui was usually decisive, what was there to worry about?
At this point in time.
Unknowingly, Chi Gui's bloodline, the 'Wicked Spirit Eye' suddenly became uneasy.
He cultivated the Dao of Ghost Corpses and his mental energy was stronger than others his cultivation. Adding on the fact he had an eye bloodline he had a sensitive instinct.
Chi Gui always trusted his instinct without doubt and it had allowed to escape several times before.
A scene suddenly appeared in Chi Gui's mind:
An 'Eye of Heaven' appearing in the skies and looking down at the world as if it was an existence on level with the Heaven and Earth.
At the last moment the gaze of the Eye of Heaven seemed to see through his body and into his soul.
Hu~
Chi Gui shook his head and hiccupped.
Voices from others from the Black Cliff Palace sounded in his ears: "Brother Chi Gui, if we don't make a move now we'll miss the chance."
Chi Gui looked over and saw that Zhao Feng had walked out of a hundred yards, still at that slow pace.
It was Ye Yanyu who was instead rushing over urgently.
"Retreat."
Chi Gui suddenly decided that no one understood.
Although the geniuses from the Black Cliff palace were surprised they didn't dare go against the order and retreated.
"Brother Chi Gui, that kid's very close to us and once we make a move even Ye Yanyu won't make it in time."
The youth as skinny as a branch didn't understand.
"This brat isn't pretending to be calm. He really isn't scared of us and most importantly, I can't see his true skills."
Chi Gui said solemnly.
In the Purple Saint Ruins Chi Gui was familiar with the other ten True Lord Ranks and he knew a bit about Ye Yanyu and even the number one genius.
However, the more Chi Gui interacted with this youth in front of him the more terrifying he felt Zhao Feng was.
There was a saying: Unknown enemies were much scarier than known enemies.
The geniuses from the Black Cliff palace didn't make a move and watched Zhao Feng fly out one mile.
"I wanted to trick this Chi Gui, but it looks like he's pretty cautious…."
Zhao Feng murmured to himself with slight regret.
He had purposely turned around on them to give them the 'flaw' to kill him.
Zhao Feng was certain that Ye Yanyu wouldn't just watch him die.
Hence the geniuses from the Black Cliff palace and Ye Yanyu would clash and once this succeeded Zhao Feng had a high chance to make half the Black Cliff palace stay and might be able to even slay the True Lord Rank Chi Gui.
After all, Chi Gui's fall in strength was greater than Ye Yanyu's and Ye Yanyu had already recovered a lot from using the Solar Lunar Sky Bamboo Shoot Dew from a couple days ago.
In a head on exchange with Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat as support, Ye Yanyu had a 50-60% to slay Chi Gui.
Even if they couldn't kill him they would be able to kill a couple others and the spoils of war would be useful to Zhao Feng as they were about the Dao of Ghost Corpses.
Unfortunately.
Chi Gui instead retreated at the critical moment and hence, he dodged this 'bait kill', meaning that the trick ended in failure.
Why did it failure?
Zhao Feng felt that he acted too calm and made Chi Gui wary of Ye Yanyu.
Of course, there was also that instinctive protection which Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye also had which had allowed him to escape.
For example, back at the Sun Feather City, Zhao Feng had been pursued by an elder of the Qiu family, but this had been sensed by him beforehand and he prepared for it.
Soon.
Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu met and the latter let out a breath but had a cold face: "You better not have any tricks and don't even think about working with wicked forces such as the Black Cliff palace."
"Goddess Ye is correct. I wanted to trade with the Black Cliff Palace but didn't think these wicked Daoist's had killing intent in their hearts. I have to thank Goddess Ye for helping me."
Zhao Feng said.
In terms of collaboration he would choose the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect first.
This was the strongest of the three sects and was righteous. Whatever said, they were better than the Black Cliff Palace and much safer.
Ye Yanyu was about to say something but the sound of flying appeared from afar.
Sou Sou Sou!
Eight or nine figures flashed through the air and headed in this direction.
Amongst them was a powerful True Lord Rank aura which was even stronger than Chi Gui and the blood robed youth's.
"Could Brother Mo Yu's reinforcements have arrived?"
The geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace were expectant and a flash of joy appeared on Chi Gui's eyes.
However, his expression changed dramatically when he released his spiritual sense.
"Run!"
Chi Gui ordered and led the group in retreat.
A while later.
Sou Sou Sou!
Eight or nine moonlight figures consisting of both males and females arrived.
The leader was a handsome silver robed youth with red hair.
His cultivation had reached the early stages of the True Lord Rank and was faintly stronger than Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord Rank's."
The silver robed youth's eyes lit up as he spotted Ye Yanyu and said with a smile: "Sister Ye we found some things over there so came over a bit late, sorry about that."
"I am enough. Just two True Lord Ranks from the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace isn't enough to threaten me."
Ye Yanyu sat cross legged on the ground with an emotionless attitude, not caring about the silver robed youth at all.
Zhao Feng could see that this silver robed True Lord was one of those chasing after Ye Yanyu and he wasn't surprised. Why wouldn't someone like Ye Yanyu have handsome youths going after her?
Most normal youths probably didn't even have the right or courage.
There were one or two martial sisters that were pretty good with Ye Yanyu and started to talk with her.
"Sister Ye, you're injured?
"Who else apart from Brother Lu would be able to suppress Sister Ye with her strength?"
The two martial sisters had reached the peak True Mystic Rank and were both surprised.
Ye Yanyu smiled and shortly told what had happened with Chi Gui and the blood robed True Lord.
"It's hard to imagine that Sister Ye has this good luck. The treasures in this cave was even better than ours."
The girls were as close as sisters and just looking at them felt nice.
The male disciples of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect sighed with admiration. Ye Yanyu was flawless.
However, Ye Yanyu and a few others were all extremely pretty and even the silver robed True Lord couldn't interrupt.
Zhao Feng didn't mind this and instead was surprised at the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's strength.
In the group Ye Yanyu and the silver robed youth were True Lords and over the remaining half were peak True Mystic Rank's.
Zhao Feng's late stage True Mystic Rank strength was at the bottom amongst the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
"Sister Ye, who's this brat?"
The silver robed male and company finally found a topic to discuss and their eyes landed on Zhao Feng with a flash.
Zhao Feng didn't have any auras of the three sides on him and this gave them many speculations.
Any genius that entered the Purple Saint Ruins had inheritance tokens from the three sects.
"Hehe, I think she's Sister Ye's prisoner of war."
A pretty young girl smiled and inspected Zhao Feng and even touched his blue hair.
Zhao Feng's eyebrows furrowed but didn't do anything. The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's strength wasn't just terrifying.
According to what he knew five of the ten True Lord Ranks came from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sects including the strongest.
"This cat is also so cut!"
Another girl wanted to touch the little thieving cat but was dodged by the latter.
"Sister Ye, what's with this human and cat?"
The eyes of the silver robed youth twinkled, and the other male disciples inspected Zhao Feng with caution.
Ye Yanyu finally mentioned simply about the deal between her and Zhao Feng.
"Hmph, what's there to discuss with these clowns. We'll just capture him and torture out his secrets."
The silver robed youth coldly released his True Spirit Realm aura and the air seemed to be filled with a brilliant moonlight that made others unable to breathe.

Chapter 412 - The Legendary Continent
"... We'll just capture him and torture out his secrets."
The silver robed youth's attitude was extremely forceful, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
He then released his True Lord Rank aura and purposely pressured where Zhao Feng was at.
"What senior brother says is correct. This person's history is unknown and might be a spy from the other sects."
"A genius not from the three sects but is able to enter the Purple Saint Ruins. We must force out the secret."
The other males all jumped in and agreed.
Of the people present excluding Ye Yanyu, the silver robed youth Yu Luo had the highest status and led the other group.
"Aye, so this is how the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect treats its guests? I heard Goddess Ye was a righteous sect that strived forwards and wanted Goddess Ye to recommend me to enter the sect. But it looks like… aye, never mind."
Zhao Feng revealed a heavily disappointed expression and Yu Luo and company all turned towards Ye Yanyu with frozen expressions.
"Brother Yu Luo, don't interfere the business between me and him. I know most of his history."
Ye Yanyu furrowed her eyebrows. She originally didn't want to protect Zhao Feng, but because he had called her out, she couldn't do nothing.
After all, the two had a deal and if Yu Luo and company were being very forceful, it was not giving her face.
"Sister Ye, since you have a deal with him, I obviously wouldn't interfere but for the safety of the sect disciples we must ask how he entered the Purple Saint Ruins."
Yu Luo's expression softened and changed to 'asking.'
"This one has no guilt. Ask whatever you want."
Zhao Feng sat on the ground and purposely moved a bit closer to Ye Yanyu and the other girls. Yu Luo couldn't attack him nor restrict his freedom. He could ask whatever he wanted.
Yu Luo's eyebrows furrowed and thought: "Is this brat not scared of me?"
With his True Lord Rank cultivation, under normal situations, who wasn't respectful towards him?
Furthermore, Yu Luo's True Lord Rank aura seemed to be ineffective against Zhao Feng.
"Where do you come from? How did you enter the Purple Saint Ruins?"
Yu Luo immediately went straight to the point.
"I come from the great Azure Stone Continent and entered this Ruins because of a mysterious power which enveloped me and this cat as well…."
Zhao Feng's actions was extremely arrogant and when he said the Azure Stone Continent, he was full of proudness.
"Azure Stone Continent? Continent?"
The geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were stunned. Continents were a legendary place and only Ye Yanyu had a mocked smile on her face as she already knew about Zhao Feng's situation.
"Wait, what's the highest star level of the strongest force in this continent and the highest known cultivation?"
Yu Luo reacted.
"The strongest is a one-star clan and the highest cultivation is the Origin Core Realm."
Zhao Feng said uncertainly.
"Hahahaha…. Frogs at the bottom of the well dare to call themselves a continent?"
The geniuses from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect laughed so hard their heads went backwards.
"As expected, you don't know anything."
Yu Luo's disdain became more obvious.
"What? What do you…. All mean?"
Zhao Feng pretended to not know anything. After asking Qing Xiaoxue from the Wind Snow Pavilion, he had faintly realised that the Azure Flower Continent he was from wasn't a true 'continent.'
At that time, Qing Xiaoxue had said that: "... some small islands call themselves 'continents' and are frogs at the bottom of a well."
He said this to confirm what she said and purposely become underestimated.
It was obvious Zhao Feng's thoughts were true.
Hearing that Zhao Feng came from a 'continent' the geniuses from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect obviously looked down at him in disdain.
"Haha, the strongest clan of your islands is only one stars and the strongest is only at the Origin Core Realm. It obviously can't be the legendary continent."
A girl next to Ye Yanyu who found this funny explained.
"I don't believe this. I actually do come from a continent and was raised there."
Zhao Feng pretended to go crazy and unable to accept this reality.
That girl jumped up in fright before smiling: "This is very normal. Many natives on the islands are limited in knowledge and think that the place they live on is a continent. When you enter the true world, you will understand."
"Hahaha idiot, there's at least a dozen of islands like yours under the Pure Moon Spiritual Sects control."
The group from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect laughed.
Invisibly they had a 'superiority' to Zhao Feng and looked down or even ignored him.
This was what Zhao Feng wanted - to make these people feel unthreatened by him and obviously wouldn't be cautious of him or restrict him.
"What's going on?"
Zhao Feng still pretended to be unable to accept this and asked the girl from before.
"Hehe, when the Desolate Continent shattered and turned into a trillion dust, every speckle was an island. Apart from the islands is limitless sea, including your continent or our Tianlu Islands are all specks in the limitless void."
The girl explained.
Zhao Feng knew a bit or two about the Desolate Continent and the battle of ancient gods from reading records.
In that era the world only had one Desolate Continent that was formed from chaos.
In that era every being there was a legend to the current era.
Peng Peng!
When the Desolate Continent was mentioned, Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye jumped.
Through some parts of dreams Zhao Feng guessed that the God's Spiritual Eye came from that era.
"The Ancient is broken, and the Ancient Gods slain will turn into a trillion dust…."
The sound of when the God's Spiritual Eye first merged with him also proved the current situation of the world.
Next.
The kind-hearted girl told Zhao Feng the situation of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect, Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace all came from the Tianlu Islands and these two were the absolutes in this area. They led up to several hundred one-star forces together.
The geniuses that entered the Purple Saint Ruins came from the three sects and the ten strongest one-star forces under them.
This meant that every genius had a force at least comparable to the 'Scarlet Moon Demonic Religion' behind them and surpassed the ten Great Clans of the Azure Flower Continent and the three sects was more than a level higher than the ten clans of the Azure Flower Continent.
Every force was split between five stars and every difference in one star was like the difference between the Heavens and Earth.
A one-star difference could be dozens of times or even a hundred times stronger.
For example, the one-star clans that were under the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were like masters and their slaves.
"The Azure Flower Continent is probably an ant in these two-star sects' eyes."
Zhao Feng had successfully made these people underestimate and look down on him, but his heart was slightly bitter.
If he hadn't entered this inheritance he probably wouldn't know he was still a frog at the bottom of a well.
Yu Luo and soon gave up on questioning Zhao Feng and lost interest in him.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect sent out some of the geniuses to look for treasures around the mysterious canyon while others stayed behind.
"That's right, Sister Ye, there's a very important piece of information that I forgot to tell you."
Yu Luo suddenly remembered something.
"Important information? Apart from the Ruins Treasured Palace whose place isn't known, what other piece of information is important to me?"
Ye Yanyu said.
"It's the Ruins Treasured Palace."
Yu Luo's face tightened: "According to our sects' disciples the Ruins Treasured Palace had appeared before."
"What!? The Ruins Treasured Palace has appeared before?"
Ye Yanyu was shocked and her expression seemed to contain a bit of defeat.
Ruins Treasured palace?
Hearing this Zhao Feng's heart moved.
He knew a thing or two about the Ruins Treasured Palace when questioning Qing Xiaoxue.
The Ruins Treasured Palace was the core of the inheritance but didn't appear every time the ruins opened.
Only by entering the Ruins Treasured Palace would one be able to receive the true essence of this place.
Compared with that this mysterious canyon was like wild grass.
"According to previous experience the Ruins Treasured Palace will appear only once every ten times and according to the Elders, the stronger the bloodline of the geniuses, the higher chances of the Ruins Treasured Palace appearing."
Ye Yanyu's beautiful eyes flashed unwillingly.
"In our generation the bloodlines of geniuses on the whole surpasses the previous generations and the chances of the Ruins Treasured Palace is actually quite high."
"Dammit, someone entered the Ruins Treasured Palace before us."
Some of those present gritted their teeth in hatred.
"Who would the person that entered the Ruins Treasured Palace be? Which one of the Ten True Lords is it? Could it Brother Lu or Zhuang Wan'er from the Moon Demon Palace?"
Ye Yanyu seemed to be unwilling to admit defeat.
"It's not Brother Lu or Zhuang Wan'er. They're still in the normal zone. That person isn't even one of the Ten True Lords."
"Who would it be? To actually enter the Ruins Treasured Palace before the Ten True Lords?"
Ye Yanyu was surprised and in disbelief because the Ruins Treasured Palace had appeared many times and had a certain aim.
For example, a genius that entered had average talent but because was suitable for the Purple Saint Ruins, received its inheritance.
They had confirmed that the person wasn't any one of the Ten True Lords.
"That person might have entered the Ruins Treasured Palace but it's not like we don't have a chance."
Zhao Feng couldn't help but interrupt.
"The Ruins Treasured Palace appears usually once every ten times and after appearing once, it's chances of appearing again will lower to one percent."
A girl said with a sullen tone.
"Ah? Doesn't this mean we have no fortune with the Ruins Treasured Palace?"
Zhao Feng didn't expect this at all. The reason why he entered the Pure Moon Spiritual Sects side was to enter the Ruins Treasured Palace.

"That's right, putting you aside, even we don't have much of a chance."
Yu Luo looked at Zhao Feng, not trying to hide the disdain in his eyes and laughed coldly in his heart: The Ruins Treasured Palace looked for someone suitable and those that enter might not receive an inheritance.
In his eyes, Zhao Feng was just a foreigner who dreamed of entering the Ruins Treasured Palace. It could be said he was a toad trying to eat a swan's meat.
"One percent is indeed a bit too low."
Zhao Feng murmured in his heart but then became calm once more.
If some things were destined to not be his then Zhao Feng didn't have to get it.
He had already received a lot of stuff and just the outer edges of the Ruins were better than most inheritances.
Unwillingness was written on Ye Yanyu's face as she bit her lips: "I won't give up even if there's only a 1% chance."
The group fell into momentary silence.
They had all given up on entering the Ruins Treasured Palace; only Ye Yanyu didn't want to admit defeat.
Zhao Feng maintained his casual attitude.
"Everyone' let's go."
Yu Luo started to organize people into groups and send them into different areas as this mysterious canyon had many precious beasts and ancient materials.
At the same time.
Sou Sou Sou--
A dark puff of cloud entered the mysterious canyon and one of them contained a dark and chaotic True Lord Rank aura.
"Brother Mo Yu!"
"Haha…. Our reinforcements have finally arrived."
Chi Gui and company from the Black Cliff Palace looked up at the sky in joy. The puff of black cloud contained ten figures, each and every one of them was cold and evil. They were the reinforcements of the Black Cliff Palace.
A youth that looked like a corpse with dark speckles of silver skin floated in the air. He looked like an alive 'dead person' and made the bone of others chill.
"Mo Yu? That corpse human came!?"
The expressions of the silver robed Yu Luo and company changed to solemness.
Amongst the ten True Lords, Mo Yu's ranking was higher than his and Mo Yu was within the top five.
Apart from Ye Yanyu, no one here was probably his match.
'Mo Yu's' arrival instantly increased the strength of the Black Cliff Palace.
"Two True Lords are here, so this is all the Black Cliff Palace's strength?"
A faint smile appeared on Ye Yanyu's mouth.
Although the reinforcements from the Black Cliff Palace had arrived, the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was still stronger.
Zhao Feng stood on the mountain and occasionally opened his God's Spiritual Eye to inspect the mysterious canyon and found that the two True Lords from the Black Cliff Palace 'Mo Yu' and 'Chi Gui' were both trying to team up with the blood robed True Lord of the Moon Demon Palace.
After all, excluding the Ruins Treasured Palace, this mysterious canyon's treasures surpassed every other place.
"Friends of the Moon Demon Palace, our enemy is the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect and right now, only a small half of their force has gathered. We should team up early…."
Chi Gui's hoarse voice made the atmosphere solemn. Mo Yu next to him had a body like a ghost corpse; his face was dry and no expression was seen, but it was obvious he agreed to this proposal.
"Let's do it."
The blood robed True Lord didn't find this weird. Every time at the late stages of entering the Purple Saint Ruins, the two sects had to team up to try and fight back against the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
After all, the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect had reached 2.5 stars and although there was only a 0.5-star difference between them, it was like the difference between the Iron Blood Religion and the Ten Great Clans.
If it weren't for the fact that the Moon Demon Palace was close to 2.5 stars and the Black Cliff Palace was a strong two stars sect, they wouldn't be able to hold the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect back.
On the other side of the canyon.
"Go."
Yu Luo organized the groups and started to search around for treasures. Ye Yanyu still needed to rest for two days to fully recover and would only help other disciples if it was an emergency.
"Goddess Ye, your cultivation is the highest and is unparalleled in the Ruins. You don't need me to protect you right?"
Zhao Feng asked to go solo.
According to the deal, Zhao Feng couldn't leave a three miles radius of Ye Yanyu, but since the Ruins Treasured Palace almost wouldn't appear again, Zhao Feng had the intention to go alone.
He was declined decisively by Ye Yanyu.
"If you want to act, you have to be with me or Brother Yu Luo."
Ye Yanyu's eyes flashed with coldness as she was still wary of Zhao Feng.
She knew Zhao Feng's strength better than the others and wasn't like Yu Luo and company who completely ignored him.
Her caution held back Zhao Feng's plan of going solo.
"It's not good to rush."
Zhao Feng found a cave two miles out and sat within it. While Ye Yanyu was resting, he would use this time to strengthen his dark silver poison corpses.
"Giant scorpion claws, Deadly Yin Crystal Bone."
Zhao Feng took out these two main materials.
He first put the Deadly Yin Crystal Bone onto the dark silver poison corpses and strengthened them. Half a day later, Zhao Feng had ground the Deadly Yin Crystal Bone into powder and merged it with the two dark silver poison corpses.
Looking at it closely, Zhao Feng saw that the surface of the two poison corpses flashed with a dark silver light. They were precise and pretty, not rough like before.
"En, the poison corpses' cultivation, hardness and especially offense have all risen by a bit."
He nodded his head in satisfaction.
After that, Zhao Feng put the giant scorpion claws onto the dark silver poison corpses. The process was done in the black lotus and controlled by the God's Spiritual Eye.
However, Zhao Feng had to be very careful as they were two strong hidden cards.
While Zhao Feng did this, he also needed to comprehend the contents of the Six Ghost Corpse Controlling Secret Technique.
The Six Ghost Corpse Controlling Secret Technique was worthy of being a peak level Spiritual tier skill and it was far more difficult than the lightning inheritance and Mystic Flower Treasured Bible. Although it was just the 'upper page', the contents were profound.
In the blink of an eye, almost two days had passed and Zhao Feng's two dark silver poison corpses were weaponized.
The claws had been exchanged for the giant corpse claws and their sharpness increased dramatically. And they contained the poison from the sack as well as the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom.
"In terms of offense, my two poison corpses are not much different to Chi Gui's two True Lord Rank ghost corpses, but with the poison, their damage is higher."
Zhao Feng was satisfied.
His poison corpse plan had succeeded.
When Zhao Feng went out, he realized that the situation within the canyon had undergone a new change.
Another True Lord Rank from the Moon Demon Palace had arrived - Zhuang Wan'er.
Zhuang Wan'er was the same as Ye Yanyu, ranked within the top three True Lord Ranks and around the same level.
"This demon girl is also here."
At this point in time, Ye Yanyu had just recovered and found that Zhuang Wan'er had come.
Zhao Feng was obviously happy to see this because he had more chances in the chaos.
"We'll go together."
Ye Yanyu harrumphed coldly and took Zhao Feng to search around the mysterious canyon.
In this instance, many places had been dug up, especially where the cave where the giant scorpion was at.
"Sister Ye, there's a Towering Tree Yao whose battle power is close to the Origin Core Realm and the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace are teaming up to attack it."
News from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect arrived.
"Towering Tree Yao. The Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace are actually fighting something like that?"
Ye Yanyu was really surprised because there was some terrifying beasts or existences that could even slay True Lord Ranks and this Towering Tree Yao was one of them.
When they were searching around before, all three sides had found this Towering Tree Yao but didn't get close due to its terrifying aura.
"Towering Tree Yao?"
Zhao Feng's heart jumped. He had found this being a long time ago with his God's Spiritual Eye and in reality, there were at least three or four other existences that level in this mysterious canyon.
The giant scorpion from before could be counted as one, but it was the weakest of the four and at that time, that scorpion only guarded the cave and had its worries. However, even then the three True Lord Ranks found it difficult to win.
"The Towering Tree Yao's battle power is ranked second in this mysterious canyon here and is almost comparable to the Origin Core Realm. The strongest existence is in deep sleep underground. No one knows that apart from me."
Zhao Feng was also surprised.
In the depths of the canyon was a Towering Tree with hundreds of branches. After tens of thousands of years, it had been filled with Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and turned to a Yao. Its branches were immune to fire and water and even weapons could hardly injure it.
Hu~ Wu~
The Towering Tree Yao released a deep growl and a wave of faint green instantly rolled over a four to five miles radius and normal True Spirit Realms would tremble in front of this.
At the same time, thick roots would shake under the ground and cause earthquakes.
Zhao Feng saw that the faint green airwave contained an unusual power that could erode the body and piles of white bones could be seen where it went.
However, this power didn't injure any tree or tree and instead even replenished them.
"The power of Wood."
Zhao Feng's pupils contracted. His Lightning Inheritance finally met its nemesis.
The power of Lightning was devastating, it countered most skills in the world and was extremely effective against wicked and evil cultivators.
However, nothing was unparalleled in the world.
For example, the power of Wood from the Towering Tree Yao perfectly countered lightning. Luckily, Zhao Feng didn't focus solely on the Dao of Lightning and his true core was the ancient Dao of the Soul.
"Goddess Ye, why did we need to offend this Towering Tree Yao? What is there to get?"
Zhao Feng showed signs of retreating.
"The Towering Tree Yao's body is comparable to an Origin Core Realm and it's body is full of treasures. Its value is more than ten times that of the giant scorpion. Furthermore, the Towering Tree Yao had already formed a 'Wood Spirit Essence Soul' which can strengthen the soul and it is even useful for those at the Origin Core Realm trying to breakthrough to the Void God Realm. It has an even better effect for us who are at the True Spirit Realm."
"On top of that, fruits have formed on the Towering Tree Yao and each and every one of them contain the essence of life which have the ability to save lives and increase cultivation like the blood glass fruit. This fruit is also easier to be absorbed…."

Chapter 414: Zhuang Wan'er
Translator:Thunder07
Editor:Thunder07
When mentioning the Towering Tree Yao, even True Lord Ranks were expectant of its treasures.
The 'Wood Spirit Essence Soul' and 'Tree Yao Essence Fruit' were the most precious materials of the Towering Tree Yao and were even beneficial for those at the Origin Core Realm.
The Wood Spirit Essence Soul was the core of the tree which was even effective for Sovereigns and greatly useful for those at the True Spirit Realm.
"If I got the Wood Spirit Essence Soul, my mental energy level would at least reach the peak of the True Lord Rank level and touch the barrier of the Origin Core Realm. At that time, with my eye bloodline, wouldn't I be the strongest?"
Zhao Feng's heart jumped but thinking about it, it was unrealistic.
Even if all three sides teamed up, they might not be able to beat the Towering Tree Yao and even if they managed to kill it, Zhao Feng wouldn't get the Wood Spirit Essence Soul.
Going back a step, even if Zhao Feng got the Wood Spirit Soul Essence, he wouldn't be able to absorb it without a couple of months or half a year and at that time, the Ruins would have closed.
Furthermore, this item would be quite wasteful for those under the Origin Core Realm and one needed to be at least at the half step Origin Core Realm to fully utilize it.
"It's the essence fruit that can heal injuries and increase cultivation. Similar to the Life Returning Grass and Blood Glass Fruit combined."
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye found the Tree Yao Essence Fruit from far away and there were five or six fully formed ones.
In terms of effectiveness, a Tree Yao Essence Fruit wasn't as good as the Life Returning Grass or blood glass fruit, but it held both capabilities at once and was easy to be absorbed, not as chaotic as the blood glass fruit.
However, there was only a total of five or six fully formed Tree Yao Essence Fruits and the number of people from the three parties added up to thirty or forty people, including six True Lord Ranks.
On average, every True Lord Rank would get one fruit and the stronger ones might be able to get two.
Sou Sou!
Ye Yanyu and Zhao Feng soon arrived within a four to five miles radius of where the Towering Tree Yao was at.
Wu~~
The Towering Tree Yao hummed lowly and sent a faint green aura across a four to five miles radius and instantly, everything of the essence of nature was replenished whereas the living beings started to melt.
The faint green aura was a help to nearby forests but it was a poison to those alive.
Zhao Feng felt his life force starting to drain even just by stepping into the outer boundaries.
"What a terrifying tree Yao. Normal True Human Ranks probably would die before they even got close."
Zhao Feng felt that he had still underestimated the Towering Tree Yao.
Weng~
Zhao Feng took out the Three Flowered Treasured Lotus and flew through the air with the petals extended.
"Hmm?"
Zhao Feng found that the Three Flowered Treasured Lotus had a strong resistance to the faint green aura. The Three Flowered Treasured Lotus was made mostly from nature and was the origin of why it could release the three smells.
Therefore, the Three Flowered Treasured Lotus had a strong resilience towards the aura and was replenished to a certain degree.
Ye Yanyu glanced over in surprise and continued without using any items as she faced this aura with ease.
A glow of moonlight appeared on her skin and made her seem like a goddess that had descended. She seemed extremely pure and holy and made others feel guilty.
The poison aura which came near to Ye Yanyu was purified by the moonlight.
"Indeed worthy of being at the late stages of the True Lord Rank."
Zhao Feng sighed in his heart.
The difference in mental energy level between him and Ye Yanyu wasn't too big, but the difference in cultivation was too much.
Ye Yanyu was able to easily travel in the area without using the help of any items.
"Everyone be careful not to go too close to the Towering Tree Yao."
"Use the ghost corpses to serve as distractions and don't land on the ground."
"Moon Demon Palace, use the Dao of Blood skills to erode the roots of the tree."
When Ye Yanyu and Zhao Feng arrived, the Moon Demon palace and Black Cliff Palace were discussing how to deal with the Towering Tree Yao.
Everything within a mile radius was within the Tower Tree Yao's attack range and there were already four or five bodies lying there already.
"Sister Ye, you're finally here."
Yu Luo and others from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect came over to meet with Ye Yanyu.
When Yu Luo saw Zhao Feng, his eyebrows furrowed and he murmured: "Why did you bring this rubbish here?"
The two True Lord Ranks and seven or eight other disciples of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect gathered together.
Their arrival obviously caused the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace's attention.
"Sister Ye, the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace have already attacked it once but that ended in failure."
A female disciple told what had happened.
Zhao Feng listened while he opened his God's Spiritual Eye to scout out the Towering Tree Yao.
Firstly, the roots of the Towering Tree Yao were developed and everything within several miles was within its offense range.
Therefore, people couldn't stand near the ground or they would become entangled by the tree's roots and become fertilizers.
Apart from that, one also couldn't come close to the Towering Tree Yao.
The branches of the tree were enormous and a True Lord Rank would probably die if hit head-on unless they had trained in a body strengthening technique.
The Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace used 'spatial tactics' instead. The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace would create black mist and the participating geniuses would use the mist as cover and attack the Towering Tree Yao.
"Ye Yanyu, you came just in time. With the three sides teamed up, we have the chance to beat the Towering Tree Yao."
A bone-softening voice of a young girl sounded. It seemed to come from a dream and was full of memories.
The hearts of many men shook. The voice seemed to be able to numb their bones and allow them to forget anything.
A charming girl rose from the Moon Demon Palace's side and on her forehead, there was a symbol of a dark moon. Her purple hair blew in the wind like an elf.
She wore a dress in faint red and revealed a pair of snow white legs. Half of her shoulders were also revealed and her every movement and smile seemed to contain magic.
It was easy to give the title of "Yao girl or Demon girl' to someone like this who contained mysteriousness and wickedness within her.
Without asking, Zhao Feng knew that this was the number one genius of the Moon Demon Palace - Zhuang Wan'er.
Furthermore, she didn't cultivate the Dao of Blood Moon but the pure power of the Moon Demon.
Her Moon Demon power was said to be Ye Yanyu's Purifying Moon power's polar opposite and their auras were completely different as well.
At this moment in time, Zhuang Wan'er's words seemed to contain a mental energy magic that made males fall into momentary stun and become lost in their dreams.
Most of the people of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were affected and even Yu Luo of the True Lord Rank was dazed for a second.
"Hmph."
Ye Yanyu harrumphed coldly and her voice broke through that mental energy magic.
The faces of many males went red as they woke. Zhuang Wan'er's voice just then contained an indescribable mental energy level that wasn't solely just charm.
In that instance, everyone's desires were magnified. Just by seeing how even Yu Luo at the True Lord Rank was even affected displayed Zhuang Wan'er's strength.
Only Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu weren't affected.
Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er were on par with one another and hence it was normal for her to not be affected. But surprisingly, Zhao Feng wasn't affected as well.
He was like an expressionless mummy that seemed to look at beauty as a pile of white bones.
Zhuang Wan'er couldn't help but glance at Zhao Feng in surprise.
Even True Lord Ranks couldn't block her 'Sky Demon Charming Voice' but this True Mystic Rank brat was perfectly fine.
Ye Yanyu couldn't look at Zhao Feng with praise. Even Yu Luo and company were charmed by Zhuang Wan'er which made Ye Yanyu feel frustrated. But luckily Zhao Feng helped her regain a breath by being unaffected by Zhuang Wan'er's 'Sky Demon Charming Voice'. It would be a blow to that demon girl.
"This girl cultivates the Demon Dao and also specializes in mental energy."
Zhao Feng faintly inspected Zhuang Wan'er, but didn't use his God's Spiritual Eye in case he was found out.
"Cute little brother, what's your name? What a lovely hair color and your eye bloodline seems to be unique as well….."
Zhuang Wan'er laughed.
Zhuang Wan'er felt irritated that Zhao Feng could withstand her Sky Demon Charming Voice and she thought that this youth might be too young to understand. But even then, a seventeen-year-old youth should know.
Zhao Feng maintained his silence, not wanting to connect with Zhuang Wan'er and save some trouble.
It was already dangerous to connect onto Ye Yanyu. If another demon girl of the same level was added, the results would be unimaginable.
"Hmph, what a cold attitude. Not even bothering to talk to me."
Zhuang Wan'er used the Sky Demon Charming Voice again with a spoiled attitude and focused mainly on Zhao Feng while the nearby Pure Moon Spiritual Sect disciples again seemed to lose their soul.
Once again Zhao Feng ignored her and Zhuang Wan'er was shocked but there was nothing he could do. The most important thing right now was to make a pact with Ye Yanyu and deal with the Towering Tree Yao first.
Zhao Feng stood still and saw Zhuang Wan'er look deeply at him once more as if she was trying to memorize Zhao Feng.
Yu Luo on the other side was angered. He had just lost his composure to Zhuang Wan'er's 'Sky Demon Charming Voice' and lost face in front of Goddess Ye.
If every male was affected, he would feel a bit better, but it was Zhao Feng, a brat at the True Mystic Rank, whose cultivation was much lower than his, that could withstand both attempts from Zhuang Wan'er.
Comparing the two, didn't this mean Yu Luo didn't have self-control and couldn't resist his desires?
At this moment in time, Yu Luo's face was going green and he gritted his teeth in hate.
"This brat's always together with Ye Yanyu and seems to be praised by her. Hmph, how dare he make me lose face in front of Sister Ye? It'll be best if I can create an 'accident' while fighting the Towering Tree Yao and kill him…."
Yu Luo's expression was dark.

Chapter 415 - Fall of a True Lord Rank
Zhao Feng remained silent, but he could feel Yu Luo's killing intent and enmity.
He shook his head helplessly.
What could he say? He had done nothing and said nothing to become connected with Zhuang Wan'er.
However, even then, someone else had begun to hate him and that person was a True Lord Rank. He was indeed 'innocent' enough.
Of course, Zhao Feng didn't mind this. Yu Luo didn't put Zhao Feng in his eyes, but did Zhao Feng put him in his eyes?
At this moment in time, Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er, two chosen ones of Heaven started to discuss how to deal with the Towering Tree Yao.
"A total of six True Lords. This force is indeed strong. The Thirteen Countries didn't even have one."
Zhao Feng sighed in his heart.
Of the ten True Lords, six were present and two of the top three arrived to discuss on how to face the Towering Tree Yao.
Zhao Feng couldn't speak up on the battle plan and he wasn't even interested.
All he wanted to do was get one Tree Yao Essence Fruit and he would be satisfied at that.
Soon, the three sides came to an agreement and started to close in on the Towering Tree Yao as they unleashed their attacks.
Wu~~
The Towering Tree Yao gave off a low roar and waved its thick branches, sending waves of green poison towards the warriors.
Apart from that, strong gusts of winds started to blow close to the Towering Tree Yao and they could destroy entire buildings easily.
"Not good, everyone, block it!"
In the air, the black mist created by the Black Cliff Palace was blown away and some corpses and skeletons were destroyed before even coming to a hundred yards from the Towering Tree Yao.
Those that hadn't reached the True Spirit Realm couldn't even be hit by the remains of the attacks from the Towering Tree Yao and could only serve as cannon fodder.
Crackk--
With one sweep of the Towering Tree Yao, more than a dozen corpses and skeletons including some at the True Spirit Realm shattered.
The branches of the tree were like massive poles to humans and every swing contained power calculated by thousands of tons.
Even the six True Lord Ranks had to be extremely careful around the Towering Tree Yao's branches.
Every swing of the branches would cause winds to blows and send airwaves that made normal True Spirit Realms unable to breathe.
"The Towering Tree Yao's battle power is stronger than expected. No one under the Origin Core Realm can face it head-on."
Zhao Feng sat on the Three Flowered Treasured Lotus mid-air.
The position where he was at was right outside the Towering Tree Yao's offensive limit and the roots in the ground couldn't reach him.
Soon, Zhao Feng witnessed a peak True Mystic Rank genius accidentally be hit by a wave of air and fall to the ground. He was then tangled up by the roots of the Towering Tree Yao, becoming its fertilizer.
Even the six True Lord Ranks could only attack in the air from a distance.
"Humans…. You will pay for your ignorance."
A deep blurry voice resounded across the forest coming from the Towering Tree Yao.
The Towering Tree Yao had already turned into a Yao. It had its own thoughts and was barely able to speak.
"This tree Yao has been bathed in the solar and lunar essence for a very long time and its body is comparable to the Origin Core Realm. Don't fight it head on and wear it out instead."
Chi Gui warned and carefully controlled a group of ghost corpses to fight the roots of the Tree Yao on the ground.
The roots of the Tree Yao were extremely strong and even the ghost corpses at the True Human and True Mystic Rank found it hard to chop them up.
However, the geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace had their own skills and used the air of rotting to erode the roots.
The blood robed True Lord Rank cultivator used a Blood technique and sent arcs of blood moons towards the roots of the Tree Yao.
"Blood Demon Corpse Palm!"
A light with the color of blood glowed from the blood robed True Lord Rank cultivator and his flesh started to become dry.
Pa!
The attack on the True Lord Rank destroyed a small root in one palm and his power seemed to somewhat counter the Towering Tree Yao.
Apart from that, Mo Yu from the Black Cliff Palace, whose body was dry and glinted with silver, was actually on the ground fighting the roots.
"Heavenly Corpse Spirit Slaughter Hand!"
Mo Yu's skin glowed with silver and his limbs and body started to expand into the size of a small giant.
With one palm containing the air of death, he sent dark silver flames towards the nearby roots and turned them into a puddle of black water.
"This guy is a Corpse body strengthener and is strong enough to fight the small roots of the Towering Tree Yao head on."
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye looked around and saw Mo Yu, the alive 'dead' person with the strongest body, fighting the small roots of the outer edges.
In the air, Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er were like two goddess that sent their devastating attack to clash with the Towering Tree Yao.
Booom--
A couple small branches of the Towering Tree Yao cracked. If it was another normal True Lord Rank without the powerful attacks of these two, they wouldn't be able to break a couple small branches.
However, after an hour of fighting, the expressions of the two girls became more solemn. The branches they broke were only the ones at the very edges and were nothing to the Towering Tree Yao.
Ding Ding Peng--
The two tried to break some bigger ones but only small scratches were left on them.
"Ding Ding Ding…."
Zhao Feng pulled his Luohou Bow from afar and sent his arrows onto the tree but there was no reaction.
Qiu Qiu Qiu~
After the three Luohou Arrows returned, Zhao Feng inspected the place with his God's Spiritual Eye and only saw a faint mark even smaller than the pinky and couldn't help but take a cold breath.
This meant that attacks from normal True Lord Ranks were like flies and mosquitos to the Towering Tree Yao. At most, it would just be uncomfortable but nothing serious would happen.
Even the strongest attacks from Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er couldn't harm the Towering Tree Yao.
The one dealing the most damage was the blood robed True Lord Rank cultivator. His attacks could erode life force and countered the power of nature.
"Blood Splatter Demonic Land."
A light of blood radiated from the blood robed True Lord Rank cultivator and it eroded the nearby smaller roots. Wherever the light went, the land seemed to become one with him and continue its path of erosion.
Although he had only injured the nearby smaller roots that were nothing to the Towering Tree Yao, he was still doing more damage than Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er.
"The thought of the three Sects is correct. By successfully eroding the roots of the Towering Tree Yao, that can cut off its source of power and weaken it."
However, Zhao Feng shook his head in regret. He knew this wasn't effective by inspecting it with his God's Spiritual Eye because the roots of the Towering Tree Yao were very deep into the ground and the furthest one reached ten miles into the ground.
Destroying the roots was more than a hundred times harder than destroying the branches.
"Even if another ten or twenty True Lord Ranks came, they wouldn't be able to finish off the Towering Tree Yao.
Zhao Feng was sure in his heart. The Towering Tree Yao couldn't move properly but its offensive and defensive capabilities were around the same as an Origin Core Realm and in terms of life force and body strength, the Towering Tree Yao was much stronger than Sovereigns.
Right as he was thinking, the situation changed.
"Ahh!"
A scream came from the ground and looking over, root after root wrapped around the blood robed True Lord Rank.
Crack!
The blood robed True Lord Rank was twisted into an unrecognizable shape then sunk into the ground, becoming fertilizer.
This scene made the hearts of the other disciples present jump and all of them took in cold breaths.
Even the other five True Lord Ranks were dazed.
"The roots of the Towering Tree Yao are extremely portable and it instantly moved its roots from other areas to this place to kill the blood robed True Lord in one blow."
Zhao Feng's heart went cold. The Towering Tree Yao was smarter than he thought and it actually knew battle tactics.
Boom!
At the same time, a True Lord Rank skeleton that Chi Gui was controlling fell from the sky as it was shattered to pieces by a branch.
The two accidents happened almost all at once. This meant that in an instant, two True Lord Rank beings had been killed by the Towering Tree Yao.
"Retreat."
Zhuang Wan'er's expression changed.
After the Moon Demon Palace lost a True Lord Rank genius, Zhuang Wan'er lost her battle intent.
"Retreat for now."
The two True Lords of the Black Cliff Palace led their people to retreat.
The strength that the Towering Tree Yao displayed was too terrifying. It could withstand weapons, fire, and water. Its attacks could even instantly kill True Lord Ranks.
At this moment in time, the geniuses of the three Sects were all stunned.
Ye Yanyu and Yu Luo led their group out of the Towering Tree Yao's offensive range.
"As I expected."
Zhao Feng wasn't surprised at this result. Just like he thought, even if another normal ten or twenty True Lord Ranked cultivators came, they wouldn't beat the Towering Tree Yao.
This was like saying dozens of those at the Ascended Realm fighting a True Spirit Realm. The former would lose easily.
The difference between the True Spirit Realm and Origin Core Realm was also huge.
"If the Towering Tree Yao had half the speed of an Origin Core Realm, at least ninety percent of the people here would die."
Zhao Feng became warier of the Origin Core Realm as he knew more.
Shua!
His figure flashed and blocked Ye Yanyu's path
"Kid, what do you want to do?"
Yu Luo shouted as killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"What do you want to say?"
Ye Yanyu surveyed this youth in front of her calmly. There was no need for her to be wary with her strength.
"Actually, everyone's chain of thought went in the wrong direction before." Zhao Feng said slowly.
"Oh? Speak."
Ye Yanyu seemed to be interested, but Yu Luo and company nearby had disdain on their faces.
"We don't have to defeat the Towering Tree Yao to get the rewards. It's like saying there's a peerless treasure in a well-guarded city. Millions of troops might not be able to take the city down, but a master thief could get the treasure without being injured."

Chapter 416 - One Arrow to Seal the Result
"... It's like saying there's a peerless treasure in a well-guarded city. Millions of troops might not be able to take the city down, but a master thief could get the treasure without being injured."
When Zhao Feng said this, everyone's eyes lit up.
A colorful light flashed in Ye Yanyu's eyes as she looked at Zhao Feng with joy and praise.
Zhao Feng's plan wasn't very smart, but his chain of thought allowed them to get the result with the smallest price.
The Towering Tree Yao was like a strong fort and even if all the geniuses of the three Sects were here, they would find it hard to defeat the Towering Tree Yao and that would result in more losses.
However, if their target was just a Tree Yao Essence Fruit, they didn't need to kill the Towering Tree Yao.
"Hmph, the Towering Tree Yao's battle power is comparable to the Origin Core Realm. Who can take a blow head on? Who would be the one to steal the fruit in front of its eyes?What's the difference between this and sending one to their death?"
Yu Luo mocked.
The Towering Tree Yao's battle power was terrifying and no one could probably take one blow from it. The blood robed True Lord who died before was an example.
Zhao Feng smiled faintly, not retorting back. Although his thought was dangerous, it was ten times easier than attacking the Towering Tree Yao head on.
Yu Luo didn't like him and Zhao Feng was too lazy to explain.
"This might be possible. Although the Towering Tree Yao's battle power is almost at the Origin Core Realm level, it can't move and due to its size, it's clumsy. If we let a fast genius go, there's a high chance of success." Ye Yanyu smiled and agreed.
"That's right, the weak point of the Towering Tree Yao is that it's big and clumsy. It lacks agility."
"We can achieve the final result without fighting the Towering Tree Yao head on. Looks like we did think wrong before."
Zhao Feng's plan was soon confirmed by the others.
The geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect weren't retarded. They just didn't realize before as they were fighting already, whereas Zhao Feng watched from a spectators view and soon found the problem.
Zhao Feng believed that even if he didn't suggest this, the three sects would find the correct path after experiencing some failures.
Indeed, the Moon Demon Palace didn't fully retreat and instead watched the Towering Tree Yao.
"Sister Zhuang, the Towering Tree Yao is big, but us humans are like bugs in front of it. If we let a genius that specializes in speed and agility go, we might be able to steal the Tree Yao Essence Fruit."
A skinny man from the Moon Demon palace suggested.
"This could work. Although there's a certain amount of danger involved, it's much easier than fighting it head-on."
Zhuang Wan'er nodded her head in agreement.
Within the forest.
After the three Sects retreated, a safe distance they started to re-plan.
The five True Lords of the three sects soon started to talk.
"The person that goes to steal the fruit must be at the True Lord Rank as only then we'll have a higher chance. How about all three sides send a True Lord Rank that specializes in speed and the others will distract them."
Zhuang Wan'er suggested and the five True Lord Ranks agreed after some thought.
Ye Yanyu would be the one from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect. Her strength and cultivation was top tier.
Chi Gui would be the one from the Black Cliff Palace. Although he wasn't as strong as Mo Yu, he was faster.
Only Zhuang Wan'er remained from the Moon Demon palace and even if the blood robed True Lord was alive, she would be the one to go as her speed was even faster than Ye Yanyu's.
Sou Sou Sou!
The three True Lord Ranks flashed through the air and became after images that headed towards the Towering Tree Yao.
The remaining two True Lord Ranks and geniuses started to attack from the outer edges to attract the Towering Tree Yao's attention.
Peng Boom--
The Towering Tree Yao waved its branches and disturbed the earth, causing sand and stone to fly everywhere.
However, this time the three True Lords didn't fight with the Towering Tree Yao and instead utilized their speed to the limit.
Boom Boom Boom!
The branches of the Towering Tree Yao could only hit the after images of the True Lord Ranks.
This scene was like a muscular man waving a swatter trying to hit the flies and mosquitos nearby.
Although it seemed easy, the hearts of the three True Lord Rank geniuses were tense and every evasion was filled with danger.
Once they were hit by the branch, even they would become meat patties.
The geniuses responsible for distraction started to seat.
"The plan is easy, but it is extremely hard to use. Only those at the True Lord Rank can try or else, the gust of wind by the Towering Tree Yao would blow the others away."
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye saw the situation of the three True Lord Ranks.
Even when Zhao Feng understood the tactic, he wasn't willing to try.
Normal True Spirit realm cultivators couldn't withstand the wind from the Towering Tree Yao and even if they could, their agility and speed would decrease.
Only the three True Lord Ranks that specialized in speed and agility could try.
Time passed by slowly and the three True Lord Rank geniuses started to enter the depths of the Towering Tree Yao.
A short one hundred yards at this moment seemed to be extremely long. An extra step meant more branches.
However, as they closed in even more, the Towering Tree Yao's attacks started to be limited as it was scared to hit itself.
"We're almost there."
Ye Yanyu's eyes were calm as she dodged the branches.
A Tree Yao Essence Fruit was only dozens of yards away from her now, but these dozens of yards were heavily protected by the Towering Tree Yao, leaving behind only a couple of gaps.
Ye Yanyu must find the correct path to take the Tree Yao Essence Fruit and retreat unharmed.
"Sky Moon Nine Slashes!"
A transparent sword appeared in Ye Yanyu's hand and with a 'weng', eight or nine flashes of moonlight went forward.
Shu Shu Shu--
The moonlight stacked upon one another and lit up the area.
After the third and fourth slash, a small gap had appeared in the smaller branches, allowing her to get closer to the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
Miao Miao!
At the same time, the little thieving cat disappeared as it agilely lept around the Towering Tree Yao.
"This cat is incredible!"
The geniuses behind it exclaimed.
The size of the little thieving cat was too small and the branches of the Towering Tree Yao couldn't stop it.
In terms of agility, it was even better than the three True Lord Rank geniuses and it could easily jump through the gaps in the branches.
Shua!
The little thieving cat surpassed the three True Lord Ranks and appeared in front of a Tree Yao Essence Fruit then chomped down.
The Tree Yao Essence Fruit was the size of a watermelon, even bigger than the little thieving cat, but the little thieving cat could swallow it in one gulp.
Zhao Feng and Ye Yanyu weren't surprised by it.
"Little thieving cat, I'll give that fruit to you but you need to help me get another one or two."
Ye Yanyu turned around to another target.
"The fruit just then was indeed eaten by the little thieving cat."
Zhao Feng saw it clearly from far away. The little thieving cat was in its growing stages and the number of treasures it ate was even more than its owner Zhao Feng.
"I can't use the little thieving cat again this time in case it raises Ye Yanyu's suspicion."
Zhao Feng decided to leave the group and head towards the depths of the Towering Tree Yao.
Sou--
He turned into a streak of lightning and used the Three Flowered Treasured Lotus and his speed wasn't too much slower than the three True Lord Ranks.
"Brat, what do you want to do?"
The expressions of the geniuses from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect changed as they saw Zhao Feng's actions.
One of the girls wanted to stop him but she wasn't fast enough.
Zhao Feng didn't even tell them anything and immediately went forward.
"This brat is looking for his death."
Yu Luo snickered.
"Brother Yu Luo, go stop him!"
A girl nearby who had talked with Zhao Feng felt unwilling.
Yu Luo was about to decline but thinking about it, he nodded his head: "Sure, I'll do my best and can help Ye Yanyu as well."
Sou!
Yu Luo flew through the air as if he was going to save Zhao Feng but he didn't use all of his speed.
"Let's see what this brat is playing."
Yu Luo was thinking how to kill off Zhao Feng and if Zhao Feng entered the depths of the Towering Tree Yao, it would be certain that he would die.
"Go, go…."
A playful smile appeared on Yu Luo's lips.
However, Zhao Feng stopped at the Towering Tree Yao's offensive limits and didn't go one step further.
Shua!
Zhao Feng opened his God's Spiritual Eye and his left eye seemed to reflect the entire world.
In that instant, Zhao Feng saw every leaf and the passage and path of where its Yuan Qi went.
Zhao Feng saw every small detail and all the possible changes were controlled.
"With the three True Lord Ranks troubling the Towering Tree Yao, it'll be much easier for me."
A surge of calmness and confidence came from Zhao Feng.
Sou--
The Luohou Bow in Zhao Feng's hand suddenly lit up and he quickly pulled out an arrow.
The arrow's route was controlled by the God's Spiritual Eye and was perfectly accurate.
Sou--
An arrow flashed in the sky that could barely be seen by the naked eye and shot through the gaps amongst the branches.
Bam!
The Luohou Arrow shot into the center of the Towering Tree Yao.
After several turns and twists, the Luohou Arrow passed by the dangers. It was like a small paper boat that could capsize with any blow.
Tok!
The Luohou Arrow passed by the barriers and started to dim down as it lost power.
Shu!
The second the lightning disappeared, the Luohou Arrow perfectly hit a Tree Yao Essence Fruit but it didn't harm its flesh or energy.
"How…. did he do this?"
The geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect including Yu Luo stared with wide eyes.

Chapter 417 - Bait Killing a True Lord Rank
The geniuses from the three sects that were paying attention to Zhao Feng's actions were dazed.
Zhao Feng's 'arrow' just then could be considered to be legendary. It was like a fish dodging through the branches of the Towering Tree Yao and found a path of life whenever it seemed to get cornered.
Any attack from the Towering Tree Yao could destroy those at the True Spirit Realm and in this environment, Zhao Feng's arrow hit its target.
Such archery skills could make normal archers look up in awe.
"Hitting the target isn't too hard because of my God's Spiritual Eye, but the true difficulty is not harming the fruit."
A drop of cold sweat appeared on Zhao Feng's head due to exhaustion.
If the Tree Yao Essence Fruit was damaged, then Zhao Feng's arrow would be useless no matter how skillful it was.
If too much energy was used, the Luohou Arrow would fall down midway and not hit the target.
On the contrary, if the power of lightning on the arrow was too much, it would destroy the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
Zhao Feng had to control everything perfectly and even adjust the Luohou Arrow with his God's Spiritual Eye midway.
Hu~
Zhao Feng let out a breath but didn't retract the Luohou Arrow. As long as Zhao Feng put some energy within the Luohou Bow, he could make the Luohou Arrow come back.
In theory, because the Luohou Arrow had pierced through Tree Yao Essence Fruit, it would bring back the spoils of war as well.
This was Zhao Feng's safe way to get Tree Yao Essence Fruits.
Two factors were needed to make this happen:
The God's Spiritual Eye's control and the three Sects needed to distract the Towering Tree Yao.
Without the three Sect's help, the Towering Tree Yao would interfere with Zhao Feng midway.
"Time to get my reward."
Zhao Feng revealed a look of expectation.
The arrow just then was to aim onto the fruit. Now he needed to get it back. The difficulty of getting the fruit back was slightly easier than before because the first arrow's power needed to be controlled perfectly. Too much power would destroy the fruit and too little wouldn't hit the target.
However, getting the arrow back didn't have the problems. The Tree Yao Essence Fruit belonged to the Towering Tree Yao and the fruit would be resilient from the attacks from the Towering Tree Yao and instead become replenished.
"That brat's trying to…. "
Yu Luo, who was coming up from behind, looked at the Luohou Bow in Zhao Feng's hand then at the Luohou Arrow and his eyes flashed.
He suddenly understood Zhao Feng's mother and son Luohou Bow.
As long as Zhao Feng put in a bit of Qi of True Spirit, the Luohou Arrow would return and bring the Tree Yao Essence Fruit back with it.
Everyone else from the three Sects also realized this.
"That kid's using this method to take the fruits?"
Some of the geniuses of the three Sects were envious and jealous.
The life force contained within the Tree Yao Essence Fruit was immense. Just one fruit alone could save someone's life.
Said simply, it was the combination of the blood glass fruit and life returning grass and had 50-60% energy from both. It was easy to absorb and could heal some hidden injuries.
Compared with this, although the blood glass fruit could greatly increase cultivation, it would very likely leave injuries behind and was more suitable for those training the Dao of Blood.
Zhao Feng didn't regret choosing the Earth Yin Poison Mushroom over the blood glass fruit at all and this Tree Yao Essence Fruit was obviously more suitable than the blood glass fruit for him.
"Back!"
Zhao Feng circulated some Qi of True Spirit to the Luohou Bow.
Weng~
A light appeared on the Luohou Arrow as it flew back to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng used the God's Spiritual Eye to make sure it wasn't hit by the branches and the process was much easier than shooting it across.
Xiu--
The Luohou Arrow came back and brought back a Tree Yao Essence Fruit with it.
--The reward was here.
"With this essence fruit, I can quickly break through to the peak True Mystic Rank and then after a while, the True Lord Rank will have no barriers at all."
Zhao Feng nodded his head in satisfaction. He didn't need to risk as much as the three True Lord Ranks but was able to get a Tree Yao Essence Fruit as well.
Right at this moment, a voice appeared from behind: "Zhao Feng, good job, I'll come help you."
Sou--
Joy and killing intent flashed in Yu Luo's eyes as he charged in.
Hearing this, Zhao Feng's expression went dark and almost starting cursing. His position right now was extremely unique.
The roots on the ground couldn't reach him and the branches of the Towering Tree Yao were just too far away.
This meant that Zhao Feng didn't even need Yu Luo's 'help.' What Yu Luo wanted to do was extremely obvious.
"This Yu Luo is so cunning."
"Aye, such a precious treasures going to Yu Luo now."
"That brat's so unlucky. So much hard work gone to nothing."
The geniuses of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace felt regretful and many were thinking why couldn't they be the ones with this luck.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's side. The geniuses also understood Yu Luo's intentions and some found this shameless while others were happy to see this.
"Hehe…. The mantis stalks the cicada but behind them lurks the oriole."
Excitement jumped in Yu Luo's heart. He followed Zhao Feng because he wanted to get rid of him, but the Heavens seemed to love him and gave him this luck.
"Kill Zhao Feng, get the fruit and after I absorb it, I'll be able to reach the late stage True Lord Rank quickly. At that time, Ye Yanyu, that bitch, will have to give me face."
Yu Luo's heart overflowed with happiness and raised his speed to the maximum and closed in on Zhao Feng.
With his early stage True Lord Rank cultivation, it would be extremely easy to kill a True Mystic Rank who came from a village.
In his eyes, the Tree Yao Essence Fruit was already his.
Zhao Feng floated in midair, while his expression changed and his thoughts turned. Evading Yu Luo was easy for Zhao Feng but if he did that, it wouldn't solve the problem.
"Oh well, right now, the Moon Demon Palace has lost one True Lord Rank and the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect is too strong and might unbalance the situation."
Zhao Feng made a decision to kill Yu Luo.
Now was the problem - how would he kill Yu Luo?
Using Zhao Feng's hidden cards, it wasn't hard to kill Yu Luo but the difficulty was how to keep on hiding his strength and make Yu Luo's death an accident so that no one was suspicious of Zhao Feng.
Killing a True Lord Rank was already not easy, especially if they had a difference in cultivation.
On top of this Zhao Feng needed to do it silently.
Under normal situations, Zhao Feng wouldn't even dare think about killing a True Lord Rank before the Sacred True Dragon Gathering.
"En… that's it!"
Zhao Feng's eyes lit up as he came up with a plan.
Indeed, in normal situations, it would be hard to do so but it wasn't impossible to put the blame on an accident.
Sou!
Zhao Feng flew back towards Yu Luo, not seeming to realize the latter's killing intent.
He also put the Luohou Arrow a bit closer to the ground.
The Towering Tree Yao's roots could reach several miles and soon Zhao Feng was only ten yards away from the top of the ground.
Ten yards was almost in the Towering Tree Yao's roots attacking range.
Zhao Feng didn't go down any further because he would be attacked by the roots. The Tree Yao Essence Fruit in his hand was like a light in the darkness that would definitely be eyed by the Towering Tree Yao.
At this moment in time, Yu Luo was only twenty to thirty yards away from Zhao Feng which was a very effective place to attack.
"Hmph, hillbilly, die..."
Yu Luo's handsome face was filled with coldness and twisted.
He raised his hand and a transparent moon blade that was ten to twenty yards long shot towards Zhao Feng.
Shua Shua!
Zhao Feng's figure suddenly turned into two and he perfectly dodged the moon blade's attack.
Two exact Zhao Fengs sped towards the ground.
Bam!
With a wave of his hand, Yu Lao destroyed one of the 'Zhao Feng's' and the other revealed a look of panic, obviously the true body, and sped in the Towering Tree Yao's direction.
"Not good, once Zhao Feng is killed by the Towering Tree Yao, the Tree Yao Essence Fruit will also fall."
Yu Luo's expression changed dramatically as he chased after Zhao Feng.
At the same time, on a tree in the forest, an invisible Zhao Feng murmured to himself: "Yu Luo, you must die."
The invisible Zhao Feng was the true Zhao Feng.
The one that had revealed a look of panic just then was also the real Zhao Feng, but after he revealed the look of panic, he created a Yin Shadow Doppelganger while his true body became invisible.
At this point in time, Yu Luo almost caught up to Zhao Feng's Yin Shadow Doppelganger.
Eye of Heart!
Zhao Feng used the Eye of Heart while he was invisible and magnified the greed and desire in Yu Luo's mind.
The thing was that Yu Luo's back was turned to the three Sects and they couldn't see the change on his face.
Most importantly, Zhao Feng's true body was invisible and using the trees as cover, no one saw him.
Shua!
Zhao Feng's Yin Shadow Doppelganger dived into a hole in the ground and faded.
"My Tree Yao Essence Fruit…."
Yu Luo had lost his mind in the infinite desire and greed and under Zhao Feng's 'Eye of Heart', he dived into the hole.
Bam Bam Bam Shua--
Dozens of roots reached out through the ground and wrapped themselves around Yu Luo.
It looked like they had been ready for a while.
"Not good!"
The expressions of the geniuses from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect changed.
"Arghhh!"
Yu Luo howled, but his shout was stopped halfway and he was twisted to death, becoming new 'fertiliser.'

Chapter 418 - Increase in Cultivation
"Brother Yu Luo!"
The scene in front of their eyes made two females from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect scream.
The geniuses from the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace took a deep breath as they were puzzled and surprised.
"How would Yu Luo get so close to the ground?"
"He was probably filled with greed, lost his mind and accidentally entered the range of the roots."
"Zhe Zhe, a True Lord Rank was tricked by a fake image. That brat's cloak is a good item."
Those from the other two sects were obviously gloating. The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's strength was too strong and even if the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace teamed up, they might not be able to beat them.
Now that the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect lost a True Lord Rank, their strength decreased and it became more balanced.
Yu Luo's death made the geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect unable to accept this, but it had already happened and nothing could be changed.
"Where did that Zhao Feng go?"
"Did he something in Brother Yu Luo's death?"
The eyes of two males from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect, who had a good relationship with Yu Luo twinkled with suspicion.
Shua!
A flash of lightning appeared in the trees.
"Zhao Feng!"
The gazes of the three sects landed on Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng pretended to be in a panic and gritted his teeth: "That Yu Luo wanted to kill me and take my Tree Yao Essence Fruit. Did everyone see that? So this is how the righteous Pure Moon Spiritual Sect treat's its guests?"
Without saying anything else, he started to blame Yu Luo.
"Where did that Yu Luo go?"
Zhao Feng quickly came close to the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's side. The expressions of those from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were ugly and the faces of two girls were pale white.
"Brother Yu Luo… he…. He died from the tree."
One of the girls that was more familiar with Zhao Feng said in a trembling tone.
"What? Was he killed by the Towering Tree Yao? I only left behind a doppelganger trying to save myself. How could he die?"
Zhao Feng pretended not to understand.When Yu Luo died, Zhao Feng had hidden in the trees and was invisible. No one saw him do anything.
This was the first point.
Secondly, Yu Luo's back was faced towards the people and the change in his expression due to the Eye of Heart wasn't seen.
Everyone only thought that Yu Luo had lost his mind and was scared that both Zhao Feng and the Tree Yao Essence Fruit would die together, hence he leaped forwards and forgot about the Towering Tree Yao's roots.
Of course, there was still one detail that most people didn't realize.
Zhao Feng had taken the Tree Yao Essence Fruit and traveled close to the ground for a while. The Tree Yao Essence Fruit was the essence of the Towering Tree Yao and was like its own 'son.'
When Zhao Feng purposely came close to the ground, the Towering Tree Yao had gathered many roots nearby.
All of this was seen by Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye.
As for when Yu Luo had landed, the large number of roots had already gathered there and instantly killed him.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's side. The emotions of some disciples were indescribable as they saw that Zhao Feng still didn't get what was going on.
According to logic, Zhao Feng had died to the Towering Tree Yao and Zhao Feng wasn't even there and instead was the 'victim.'
All of this happened in front of their eyes.
First of all, Zhao Feng wasn't there. Secondly, he was the victim and thirdly, the difference in cultivation between the two was huge.
"Hmph, brat named Zhao. Although Brother Yu Luo wasn't killed by you, you still played a part in it."
"That's right. If it weren't because of you, Brother Yu Luo wouldn't have died."
Two disciples who had a good relationship with Yu Luo said fiercely.
Zhao Feng was instantly speechless. What kind of logic was this?
"All of you calm down, Zhao Feng's also a victim. If Brother Yu Luo wasn't so greedy, he wouldn't have died."
One of the girls who was familiar with Zhao Feng couldn't help but say and the disciples of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect decided to wait until Ye Yanyu came back to decide how to solve this.
After all, the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was a righteous force and Zhao Feng had a deal with Ye Yanyu.
"Brat, you better hand over the fruit before Sister Ye comes back or…. "
A peak True Mystic Rank male said as his eyes twinkled trying to conceal the greed.
With his peak True Mystic Rank cultivation, he had a large chance to break through to the True Lord Rank if he ate the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
The gap between the True Mystic Rank and True Lord Rank was enormous.
Zhao Feng smiled and didn't bother replying. Instead, he took out the Tree Yao Essence Fruit and started to eat it bite after bite.
The Tree Yao Essence Fruit was the size of a watermelon and Zhao Feng needed a while to finish it.
"Tree Yao Essence Fruit. Kid, how dare you…."
The two males, who had a good relationship with Yu Luo, roared and leaped towards Zhao Feng.
"Hehe, so you two don't care about Yu Luo's death but wanted to get the Tree Yao Essence Fruit instead." Zhao Feng said in a mocked tone.
Die!
The expressions of the two disciples changed as they attacked.
One of them sent out a faint moonlight sword, which could pierce through a mountain, while the other summoned a wave of moonlight that could kill a small beast horde.
Whoosh!
Zhao Feng's figure disappeared and with a flash of lightning, he appeared on the other side, slowly eating his Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
"Kill!"
The two disciples kept on attacking Zhao Feng.
Shua Shua! Boom Boom!
Zhao Feng's figure flashed and no matter how fierce the attacks from the two were, they couldn't even touch his clothes.
Ten breaths later. Zhao Feng finished eating the Tree Yao Essence Fruit. His face was red and an aura full of life radiated from him.
The two disciples gritted their teeth in hate and puffed in and out.
They obviously didn't purposely want to 'trouble' Zhao Feng. Their true aim was the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
However, Zhao Feng's speed had reached an incredible level. He toyed around with them and finished eating the Tree Yao Essence Fruit while being chased by the two.
When Zhao Feng finished eating the Tree Yao Essence Fruit, his strength would rise again and they would have no power to interrupt.
"The Tree Yao Essence Fruit's effect is indeed strong."
Zhao Feng felt himself become filled with life and his whole body become cleansed.
His mental energy level allowed him to absorb the maximum amount of energy from the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
If it were another normal True Mystic Rank, they would waste at least 80% of the Tree Yao Essence Fruit or eat it separately.
However, to shorten the trouble, Zhao Feng ate all of it at once in front of the people.
Due to his high mental energy level, Zhao Feng could absorb at least 60% of the Tree Yao Essence Fruit, which allowed him to proceed from the late stage True Mystic Rank to peak True Mystic Rank.
At this point in time, Zhao Feng's aura was rising rapidly. His skin was fresh and tender, giving people a feeling he was becoming younger.
Increase the lifespan and appearance was a side effect the Tree Yao Essence Fruit had.
The Tree Yao Essence Fruit's true ability was to increase Zhao Feng's Yuan Qi.
Soon, Zhao Feng's cultivation started to close in on the peak True Mystic Rank.
If it were another normal late stage True Mystic Rank, they wouldn't be able to improve so quickly - even if they had the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
However, Zhao Feng's mental energy level had reached the early stage True Lord Rank and was even stronger than normal early stage True Lord's.
When one's mental energy level was high enough, their cultivation would also rise rapidly.
At this point in time, the three True Lords were trying to come back out from the depths of the Towering Tree Yao.
Chi Gui from the Black Cliff Palace was rumpled and finally got one Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
Zhuang Wan'er from the Moon Demon Palace also got a Tree Yao Essence Fruit whereas the little thieving cat and Ye Yanyu both received one Tree Yao Essence Fruit each and the little thieving cat had eaten its one already.
Yet, leaving the depths of the Towering Tree Yao was harder than entering.
Wu~
The Towering Tree Yao roared and its branches swept around, sending terrifying winds everywhere.
The inside of the Towering Tree Yao was covered in dust and the ground shoot.
Xiu Xiu Xiu--
Roots appeared from the ground which formed a net and blocked off the escape route of the three True Lord Ranks.
The Tree Yao Essence Fruit was like the Towering Yao Tree's descendants and watching them being stolen in front of its eyes was something it wouldn't stand for.
To make the culprits stay behind, the Towering Tree Yao went almost crazy and even destroyed some of its branches and roots.
This meant that even if the Towering Tree Yao could make the three True Lord Ranks stay behind, it would also be injured. But the angry Towering Tree Yao didn't care anymore.
"We only have a shot at life if the three of us team up."
Zhuang Wan'er shouted and circulated her demonic secret technique that almost burned her Qi of True Spirit.
A weird dark aura surrounded her and devoured every attack from the outside world.
"What a special secret technique."
Zhao Feng looked with the God's Spiritual Eye and was sure that the field around Zhuang Wan'er could devour any attack under the Origin Core Realm and even normal Origin Core Realm attacks would be weakened by thirty to forty percent.
"That's the Moon Demon Palace's 'Demonic Moon Force Field', which was improvised from the 'Heavenly Demon Power Field.' Its power would double in the moonlight."
At the same time, Chi Gui and Ye Yanyu both used their secret techniques as their lives depended on it.
These three True Lord Ranks came from two-star sects and they obviously had their cards if they were able to reach the depths of the Towering Tree Yao.
Amongst them, Ye Yanyu took out a weird jade slip which she crushed and a moon robed holy goddess appeared from it.
"What's going on? Isn't that our sect's Saint Moon Aunt Goddess?"
"That's a protective item created from experts at the Void God Realm by using their blood essence and Void God Realm materials. It can give Sister Ye one-tenth of Saint Moon Aunt Goddess' defense or one strike."
The disciples of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect let out a breath.
After receiving the Void God Protection, Ye Yanyu would be able to stall a while even against those at the Origin Core Realm.
"As expected of a two-star sect. Such methods are unthinkable. It's hard to imagine how powerful three star and four-star factions will be…."
Zhao Feng looked forward to the future.
At this moment in time, his Qi of True Spirit broke through a barrier and allowed him to reach the peak True Mystic Rank.

Chapter 419 - Suspicion
When the three True Lord Ranks were in a dangerous situation, Zhao Feng had reached the peak True Mystic Rank with the help of the Tree Yao Essence Fruit.
Because he had eaten the Tree Yao Essence Fruit in a rush, Zhao Feng wasn't able to fully absorb the energy.
His Source of True Spirit couldn't expand anymore as it had reached its limit.
To not waste anything, Zhao Feng sealed part of the Tree Yao Essence Fruit in the Water Moon Pirate's Source of True Spirit.
At the peak of the Water Moon Pirate's Source of True Spirit, it was larger and pure than Zhao Feng's. However, this Source of True Spirit was on the verge of being used up. But after the life force of the Tree Yao Essence Fruit went into it, it started to recover.
"The Water Moon Pirate's Source of True Spirit is not only a second storage. It can also be burnt at critical moments."
Zhao Feng also knew this was one of his cards, but there was no situation that needed Zhao Feng to burn it yet.
Burning one's Source of True Spirit and Qi of True Spirit was different.
Burning the Qi of True Spirit would increase battle power dramatically and would harm the foundation if it continued for a long time, whereas burning the Source of True Spirit was destroying one's own cultivation and one paid a heavy price. The increase in battle power would flip over several times.
If one burnt the Source of True Spirit too fiercely…. That was self-destruction.
After the breakthrough in cultivation Zhao Feng also paid some attention to the three True Lord Ranks.
"Shameless humans…. Stay behind."
The Towering Tree Yao howled in anger and went crazy. It broke some of its own branches and roots to block off these humans that had stolen its 'descendants.'
One had to know that the Towering Tree Yao was almost at the Origin Core Realm's level and under its insane attacks, it was very likely that it would kill the three True Lord Ranks.
Amongst them, Ye Yanyu faced the most pressure because she and the little thieving cat took two Tree Yao Essence Fruits and was hated by the Towering Tree Yao the most.
Luckily, her hidden card was also very strong and was a Void God Protection.
The moon robed goddess behind Ye Yanyu was her master - Saint Moon Aunt Goddess.
"If it was a normal Origin Core Realm, my Void God Protection my Void God Protection can severely injure or kill it in one move. But the life force of the Towering Tree Yao is too strong and its roots span for several miles."
Ye Yanyu didn't attack straight away.
The Void God Protection could be used for defense and offense, and it could use one-tenth the strength of a King at the Void God Realm.
Compared with the latter, defense was safer right now.
With the Void God Protection, Ye Yanyu could hold her own against the Towering Tree Yao.
Even the Towering Tree Yao was shocked by the Void God Protection's aura and its attack weakened a bit.
Sou Sou--
Zhuang Wan'er and Chi Gui immediately got close to Ye Yanyu and the three fought their way out.
Chi Gui also had a card up his sleeve and with an exclaim, he drank a mysterious liquid which made his body give off a dark glow and became light like a ghost.
With a clench of his teeth, he took out some ghosts from his ghost storage and with howls they were absorbed by Chi Gui's dark glow.
This allowed Chi Gui's body to become more ghost-soul based and physical attacks lost 70% of their original damage.
"Interesting."
Zhao Feng was surprised and watched with interest. Although he could see some details, he couldn't understand the process.
A while later.
The three True Lord Ranks finally fought their way out. The Towering Tree Yao had paid a huge price but wasn't able to keep the three True Lord Ranks behind.
"After all, the forces behind these three True Lord Ranks are two-star sects of which any one of them can sweep across the Azure Flower Continent. Ye Yanyu's master is even a King at the Void God Realm."
Zhao Feng sighed in his heart.
He might be an overwhelming prodigy in the Azure Flower Continent. But amongst the geniuses who had better resources, skills, inheritances…. In every aspect, they were more than a higher level than the Ten Great Clans of the Azure Flower Continent.
"Since I've already used the Void God Protection, then I might as well use it all."
Ye Yanyu's face went cold as she turned around and pointed her jade fingers.
Weng~
The moon robed goddess behind her which was slightly faded flashed through the air and brought a devastating power with it.
The Heaven Earth Yuan Qi within a hundred miles radius instantly started to gather like the tide and a God seemed to appear.
"This aura…."
Zhao Feng's heart jumped and even his God's Spiritual Eye trembled.
In front of this massive Heaven Earth Yuan Qi, the geniuses present felt they were as small as ants.
Everyone felt a pressure bear down on their soul. Even Zhao Feng's powerful source of mental energy trembled and was unable to move.
Boom--
A loud boom sounded across the canyon.
Zhao Feng saw the moon robed goddess figure clash heavily with the Towering Tree Yao.
The Towering Tree Yao howled in fear and protected itself with its branches as it released a crisp green light that clashed with the Void God Protection.
Immediately following that, an eye-burning moonlight lit up everything within several miles and sent a blast of airwave across ten miles.
"Not good!"
The disciples of the three Sects all used their Qi of True Spirit or secret techniques to shield themselves.
"What devastating power. Just the remains of it can kill normal True Human Ranks."
Zhao Feng circulated his Qi of True Spirit and formed a layer of lightning around him. However, even then he felt it was hard to block.
Of the geniuses of the three sects, over half were at the peak True Mystic Rank and they had their own secret techniques or weapons that allowed them to block it.
The wave lasted for three breaths before weakening and everyone let out a breath and looking up, they saw that everything within ten miles was covered in smoke.
The blow just then was enough to destroy a small city just then and this was still when the Void God Protection had lost over half its power.
Under its peak, a blow from it was very likely to slay an Origin Core Realm Sovereign.
Sou Sou Sou--
The three True Lord Ranks flew back and gathered back with their respective geniuses.
"The move just then was enough to injure the Towering Tree Yao, but nowhere enough to kill it." Ye Yanyu murmured to herself.
The life force and body of the Towering Tree Yao was too strong and its roots were spread across several times with the deepest going down ten miles.
Zhao Feng opened his God's Spiritual Eye and saw that one area of the Towering Tree Yao was shattered. Even one side of the Towering Tree Yao was filled with injuries.
"Although it wasn't enough to kill the Towering Tree Yao, one side of it is injured and there's a flaw."
Zhao Feng's heart moved. The most valuable item of the Towering Tree Yao wasn't the Tree Yao Fruit Essence but the Wood Spirit Essence Soul.
The Wood Spirit Essence Soul could strengthen the soul and it was even beneficial for those at the Origin Core Realm.
If a cultivator at the True Spirit Realm was able to get the Wood Spirit Essence Soul, reaching the Origin Core Realm was only a matter of time.
For cultivators of the Dao of Soul, the Wood Spirit Essence Soul was an item from their dreams.
Zhao Feng obviously knew this, but he knew that he couldn't get the Wood Spirit Essence Soul alone.
To get the Wood Spirit Essence Soul, they must kill the Towering Tree Yao. But the Towering Tree Yao could decide to destroy the Wood Spirit Essence Soul before it died.
At this moment in time, the three True Lord Ranks were injured and had no energy to attack the Towering Tree Yao.
Amongst them, Chi Gui was the one with the heaviest injuries. The mysterious mist thing that he drank and secret technique that he used turned him into a half solid half void state.
Even Ye Yanyu, who had the lightest injuries, was more injured than the fight at the cave before.
"Where did Yu Luo go?"
Ye Yanyu felt something was wrong and the geniuses sadly told the tale of Yu Luo's death but didn't purposely blame Zhao Feng.
After all, all of the geniuses saw how Yu Luo died.
"With Yu Luo's personality, it's possible for him to try and kill Zhao Feng and steal his treasures. But a True Lord Rank was fooled by a doppelganger and went within the range of the Towering Tree Yao's roots….? Furthermore, Yu Luo isn't someone that rash."
Ye Yanyu's eyebrows furrowed and only believed half of it.
Her sharp eyes that seemed to pierce through anything surveyed Zhao Feng. If it was someone who was guilty, they would feel uneasy and any change in their emotions would be seen by Ye Yanyu.
However, both Zhao Feng's inner heart and surface emotions was extremely calm and Ye Yanyu could see nothing suspicious.
"En…."
Ye Yanyu started to think. She felt that Yu Luo's death wasn't that simple. Although it was certain Yu Luo wasn't killed directly by Zhao Feng, the latter might still have a connection to it.
After all, only Zhao Feng was close to Yu Luo.
"No one saw Zhao Feng make any move before Yu Luo died and at that time he was invisible…. meaning that no one saw him do anything."
Ye Yanyu started to think and found some suspicious points.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye also saw Ye Yanyu's change in emotions.
"This girl is extremely smart and even if the little thieving cat has successfully tricked her, she might still be suspicious."
Zhao Feng found that although the rewards of his plan were getting bigger, the risk of being found out was also increasing.
He secretly made the decision that if there wasn't any bigger fortune, he would sneak away from Ye Yanyu.
At this point in time.
Sou Sou Sou--
From the air came the sound of flying and amongst them was a True Lord Rank aura not much weaker than Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er.
More than a dozen figures appeared in the clouds.
"Not good, more reinforcements from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect."
The expressions of the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace changed.
Zhao Feng's eyes scanned the figures and this group was even stronger than Yu Luo's. The leader was a mystic robed youth whose cultivation seemed to have just reached the late stage True Lord Rank not long ago.
"One of the reasons why I killed Yu Luo before was because the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's strength was too strong and may disrupt the balance. Any now another late-stage True Lord Rank came."

Chapter 420 - Step after step of danger
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was indeed worthy of being a two-and-a-half-star sect that had five of the ten True Lords.
Zhao Feng knew this and therefore, he killed Yu Luo to balance the three sects out.
Who would have expected that not much longer after Yu Luo's death, another True Lord Rank came from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect who was even stronger with the cultivation of the late stage True Lord Rank and most of the reinforcements were at the peak True Mystic Rank?
"It's Brother Li Hong!"
"Brother Li Hong must have met some fortune in the Ruins or else how would he have reached the late stage True Lord Rank."
Envy and joy were written on the faces of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect geniuses.
Before they entered the Ruins, Li Hong's ranking amongst the ten True Lord Rank was pretty far behind and even lower than Yu Luo.
However, after reaching the late stage True Lord Rank, Li Hong's ranking was close to Zhuang Wan'er and Ye Yanyu's.
"Li Hong, you've come just in time. We need more people right now."
Ye Yanyu smiled like a white lotus blossoming.
At this point in time, everyone's gazes landed on the mystic robed True Lord Rank, who was Li Hong.
Li Hong reaching the late stage True Lord Rank and bringing reinforcements boosted the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's morals.
However, the expressions of those from the Moon Demon palace and Black Cliff Palace was solemn.
"The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect now has another late-stage True Lord Rank. Will this generation be the same as the previous ones? The Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace suppressed by the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect even when teamed up together?"
Chi Gui murmured to himself as the white light in his eyes dimmed.
The Moon Demon Palaces' side.
"The most troublesome geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect are Ye Yanyu and Lu Tianyi. Lu Tianyi has reached the half step Origin Core Realm and is undefeatable here."
The dark moon symbol on Zhuang Wan'er's forehead flashed as her purple hair blew in the wind.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect had two of the three strongest True Lords and Lu Tianyi's strength was the highest without a doubt. Both Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er weren't his match.
The only thing was that Lu Tianyi hadn't appeared yet.
The mystic robed Li Hong led his group to meet with Ye Yanyu.
"Sister Ye, I was attracted here by the Void God Protection and indeed found you guys here."
Although Li Hong was smug, he was still respectful towards Ye Yanyu. He had just reached the True Lord Rank not long ago and there was still a bit of difference between him and Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er.
"The Void God Protection's power is devastating and everyone within a thousand miles radius can sense it. Looks like this canyon will only attract more and more geniuses."
Zhao Feng didn't speak much as he stood in the corner.
He suddenly felt gloating gazes look towards him. These gazes came from the two male disciples who had good relationships with Yu Luo and they had wanted to take Zhao Feng's Tree Yao Essence Fruit but didn't succeed.
"Hehe, Brother Li Hong's relationship with Brother Yu Luo was very good. Back then, Brother Yu Luo even helped Li Hong before."
"Even if Zhao Feng isn't the culprit, Brother Li Hong won't give him any good days if he wants to."
The two male disciples gloated.
"Brother Li Hong, have you seen Brother Lu?" Ye Yanyu said with care.
Brother Lu.
The ears of the geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect pricked up as they revealed expressions of admiration and respect.
Brother Lu was Lu Tianyi, the number one True Lord.
"The Towering Tree Yao has been injured, but it's still very hard to kill it. If Brother Lu's here, we would at least have a 60% chance." Ye Yanyu said.
She and Brother Lu were similar and liked to travel alone. However the Wood Spirit Essence Soul's value was too high and the fruit, branches and even skin of the Towering Tree Yao were treasures. It was about the same as killing a beast at the Origin Core Realm.
"I saw Brother Lu a couple days ago and he killed a beast horde, including several True Lord Ranks beast. However, he was pretty unlucky and was pursued by a Sovereign at the Origin Core Realm whom he couldn't beat and retreated…."
Li Hong sighed and shook his head when Brother Lu was mentioned.
Lu Tianyi was too high up. Normal True Lord Ranks couldn't reach his level.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but cluck his tongue when he heard this. What kind of monsters did the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect have?
Normal True Lord Ranks would run for their lives when they saw an Origin Core Realm and this Lu Tianyi had fought them and was still able to escape.
"Of course, I also came here to tell you an important piece of information regarding the person that entered the Ruins Treasured Palace."
Li Hong's eyes twinkled.
Ruins Treasured Palace.
The expressions of those from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect changed.
Everyone knew that the person that had entered the Ruins Treasured Palace wasn't any one of the ten True Lord's and now Li Hong seemed to know something.
"Who is it? If it's not one of the ten True Lords, is it someone from one of the smaller clans?"
Ye Yanyu's face was tight. She was still unwilling to give up.
The Ruins Treasured Palace was the core of the Purple Saint Ruins and only by entering the Palace would they receive the true inheritance.
"None of them."
Li Hong shook his head and spoke in a solemn tone: "You won't believe what I'm about to saw. The girl that entered the Ruins Treasured Palace doesn't belong to any of the three sides and might not even be a genius from the Tianlu Islands."
"What!?"
"How…. how is this possible?"
The geniuses from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect shook their heads.
Even those from the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace nearby didn't believe this.
"You mean….. An outsider?"
Ye Yanyu and company's gazes all landed on Zhao Feng and the latter cursed in his heart.
Every eye was locked onto Zhao Feng because he was an outsider.
"Hmm? There's also one here who doesn't have the inheritance token of the three sects."
Li Hong looked at Zhao Feng in surprise.
Zhao Feng sighed in his heart. What was going to happen sooner or later was finally revealed.
Right now, he was using a spectators perspective to get the most amount of rewards he could but danger always accompanied reward.
Although the little thieving cat's plan was good, it was also extremely risky.
However, if it didn't do this, Zhao Feng would find it hard to even live in the Ruins.
"Zhao Feng, what's the relationship between you and the person that entered the inheritance?"
Ye Yanyu's face went cold.
Her skin started to glow with moonlight and seemed to be like a goddess that had descended as she released her True Lord Rank aura.
"I don't know. I was taken here by a mysterious power and was the only person. Oh, and that cat."
Zhao Feng shook his head calmly.
His current situation was very dangerous and was locked on by both Ye Yanyu and Li Hong.
The three True Lord Ranks from the Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace were also watching closely.
Ye Yanyu couldn't help but be slightly disappointed. She had already asked the little thieving cat about Zhao Feng's situation before.
Zhao Feng obviously wouldn't say he was connected to 'Zhao Yufei' or else it would be very troublesome.
He was almost certain the outsider that entered the Ruins Treasured Palace was Zhao Yufei because the Purple Saint Ruin's target was 'Zhao Yufei' and Zhao Feng was accidentally taken in.
"The world is huge and there are many forces. If I can enter by accident, then other geniuses can as well. Maybe the Purple Saint Ruins has changed or it's broken." Zhao Feng said slowly.
"What you say is very logical. According to the seniors of the sect, the Purple Saint Ruins' energy is running out after being here for so long and there may be weak points."
The mystic robed Li Hong actually agreed with Zhao Feng. If Zhao Feng was an 'accident', then there might be more 'accidents.'
In reality, Zhao Feng was directing everyone's chain of thought.
As long as he had nothing to do with the girl that entered the Ruins Treasured Palace, then his deal with Ye Yanyu was immovable.
After all, in this group right now, Ye Yanyu was still the one leading the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
"Looks like I need to split with these people soon or else when Lu Tianyi who's ranked first arrives, the situation will be out of my control."
Zhao Feng planned.
At this point in time, Zhao Feng found that the two male disciples who were pretty good with Yu Luo walked up to Li Hong and said something in a low tone.
"Yu Luo…. is dead?"
Li Hong's heart trembled. This sudden news made him feel as if he had fallen into an abyss.
Yu Luo was someone who had undergone pain with him together.
At the beginning, Yu Luo was pretty strong in the Sect and took care of Li Hong who had just entered.
In a trial, he had even saved Li Hong's life and the latter was very grateful towards Yu Luo. The two were very close and knowing that Yu Luo had died, Li Hong seemed as if he had been struck by lightning and was dazed.
"Fuck, looks like all my good luck's run out. Li Hong and Yu Luo's relationship is pretty good."
Zhao Feng felt something was going to go wrong.
He finally understood why those two looked gloatingly towards him.
Knowing that Yu Luo had died, Li Hong's heart seemed to be cut into pieces and he howled towards the sky.
Of course.
Being an expert at the True Lord Rank, he soon regained control of his emotions.
"Talk about the specifics…."
His eyes glanced coldly over Zhao Feng as he started to ask for the details. Knowing that Yu Luo died due to chasing Zhao Feng, Li Hong's face went cold and his eyes started to go red with killing intent.
"Brat, I don't care if you killed Yu Luo or not but if it weren't because of you, he wouldn't have died."
Li Hong's teeth bit his lips and they started to bleed as his eyes became full of hatred.
A powerful surge of True Lord Rank aura radiated from him and ripple of blue lightning appeared in the air. The lightning from it was even stronger than Zhao Feng's Lightning Inheritance.
"This Li Hong cultivates the path of lightning and has merged water and lightning together. The skills from his two-star Sect is much more profound than the Lightning Inheritance."
The more dangerous it was, the calmer Zhao Feng was as his God's Spiritual Eye became sharper.

Chapter 421 - Zhao Yufei's voice
At this point in time, Li Hong didn't conceal his killing intent anymore and released his True Lord Rank aura that summoned the lightning and water Yuan Qi nearby.
This was the first time that Zhao Feng faced a late stage True Lord Rank.
When he had fought with Ye Yanyu before, the difference was too big and Zhao Feng didn't use all of his strength.
Zhao Feng didn't panic in front of this aura and he looked towards Ye Yanyu. According to the deal, she needed to protect him but right now, she had no signs of doing so.
Ye Yanyu had her own plans:
She wanted to use Li Hong to dampen Zhao Feng's power. Ye Yanyu started to feel as if she couldn't control Zhao Feng and was unable to see through him anymore.
Zhao Feng had made a deal after being threatened by her, but he always acted calmly and got the most benefit surviving between the three sects. Not only did he get many treasures, he had also traded with her and the Black Cliff Palace.
Ye Yanyu had the feeling that she couldn't fully control Zhao Feng anymore, especially after Zhao Feng got the Tree Yao Essence Fruit and broke through in cultivation, killing Yu Luo as well.
It wasn't hard for Zhao Feng to guess Ye Yanyu's thoughts. If she was just going to watch this, this meant that he had to take care of this himself.
After entering the Purple Saint Ruins, Zhao Feng relied on his intelligence to survive.
"Hehe, are the geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect so useless?"
Zhao Feng laughed lightly with a mocked tone.
Useless?
The Moon Demon Palace and Black Cliff Palace who were going to watch a show were surprised.
If the geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were 'useless', then what were the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace that was always suppressed by them?
"Useless? Hillbilly, don't get cocky."
"Even if Brother Li Hong didn't find trouble, we wouldn't let you go."
Zhao Feng's words instantly caused the geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect to be angered.
He had almost offended everyone from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect in just one sentence.
"Hahaha, then I'll ask you, who was the real culprit that killed Yu Luo?"
Zhao Feng laughed.
True culprit?
The geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect paused and many turned towards the Towering Tree Yao.
"It's the Tree Yao." Someone instinctively said.
"Zhe Zhe, if Li Hong and the other two really want to take vengeance, the real culprit is right there. You can go kill it. Why would you have to trouble me, the victim?" Zhao Feng said playfully.
He purposely emphasized the words 'true culprit' and 'victim.'
The true culprit was the Towering Tree Yao and Zhao Feng had been pursued by Yu Luo. He was the victim.
"Hahaha, the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect only bullies the weak and is scared of the strong. Doesn't this show how useless they are?"
Zhao Feng laughed towards the sky.
"You you…."
Li Hong was instantly speechless and the faces of the two male disciples went red and green.
This even made the faces of the other disciples turn red. They weren't figuring out how to kill the true culprit but were finding trouble for the victim.
No matter how you looked at it, it seemed as if they were scared of the strong and bullied only the weak.
The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was a righteous force that needed to follow justice.
It was because of this that Zhao Feng worked with the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect and not the Black Cliff Palace or Moon Demon Palace.
"Hahaha…. The Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's lost all their face. They're just a bunch of people pretending to be righteous but in reality, they only bully the weak." The disciples of the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace mocked.
Being their enemy, they didn't mind hitting the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect when they were down.
The expressions of the disciples of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were all extremely ugly and even Ye Yanyu felt that she had lost face: "Brother Li Hong, I have a deal with Zhao Feng. We'll decide what to do after the Ruins closes."
Li Hong felt as if he had lost face for everyone and was extremely unwilling.
"Brat, I'll only use one move because of Sister Ye."
Right after he said this, Li Hong flashed towards Zhao Feng and the sudden change made Ye Yanyu's expression change but she couldn't stop it in time.
Li Hong had lost too much face and he obviously wanted to teach Zhao Feng a lesson or even kill him.
Pa!
Li Hong's palm ripple with blue lightning that contained the mobility of water and the destructive power of lightning.
Because of his perfect control, no one nearby would be harmed.
"This palm is definitely enough to kill anyone below the True Lord Rank."
If Zhao Feng used his Three Flowered Treasured Lotus and bloodline power, he could manage to barely take it but he decided to be powerful to the end.
"Fuck off!"
Zhao Feng roared as his body released a terrifying aura.
In that instant, one-tenth of the Water Moon Pirate's Source of True Spirit started to burn which allowed his battle power to flip several times.
A normal True Mystic Rank wouldn't be able to control this power as they level wasn't enough, but Zhao Feng's mental energy level had reached the early stage of the True Lord Rank.
He could control the chaotic power from burning the Source of True Spirit. And the Dark Water Heart and Tree Yao Essence Fruit strengthened his body.
Booom--
Zhao Feng's palm seemed to make a hundred flowers blossom and burn in the sky.
"He's burning his Source of True Spirit, everyone watch out!"
Ye Yanyu flashed and swiped her hands, creating a barrier of moonlight that separated the power between the two.
Peng!
A deep hole was created on the ground and extended up to ten yards before being blocked by Ye Yanyu.
If the power wasn't so concentrated, everything within a mile would be flattened.
Many disciples from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect were sent flying by the wave of air and in the dust, a figure landed next to Ye Yanyu with a smile.
"Kid, you're going to die--"
Li Hong's angry voice sounded from within the dust. Li Hong was extremely ruffled and his hair and clothes were dirty.
The disciples of the three Sects were all stunned.
It seemed like Zhao Feng had gained the upper hand just then. Although Li Hong wasn't injured, he looked ruffled as if he had been tricked.
"Stop!" Ye Yanyu exclaimed coldly and sent a ripple of moonlight that pushed back Li Hong several yards.
"Sister Ye, you're protecting an outsider!?"
Li Hong's eyes were bright red as he gritted his teeth, but he was extremely wary of Ye Yanyu's strength even if the latter was injured.
Zhao Feng stood next to Ye Yanyu and was certain that she wouldn't do anything.
Firstly, Ye Yanyu had said that she was working with Zhao Feng and warned Li Hong.
Li Hong attacking Zhao Feng was not giving her face.
Secondly, Li Hong had said only 'one move' but didn't stick to his promise, making the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect lose more face.
It could be said that in just a short while, Li Hong had lost almost all of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect's face and even Ye Yanyu couldn't stand it any longer.
"Do you think you haven't lost enough face?" Ye Yanyu said coldly.
"I…."
Li Hong seemed to realize his rashness. He had indeed used one move already and went against Ye Yanyu by doing so.
At this moment in time, the disciples from the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect felt as if there was no light on their faces.
Li Hong was full of frustration.
"If you have the time, you should instead think about how to deal with the Towering Tree Yao. That way we can avenge Brother Yu Luo and get rewards at the same time." Ye Yanyu said.
"Sister Ye, you're right. The most important thing right now is to kill the real culprit. As for this brat, I'll see him after the ruins close.'
Li Hong finally calmed down.
He had already used one move and if he continued, it would only make the others laugh at him.
This chaos finally settled.
"This blue haired youth…. Is not simple."
Zhuang Wan'er from the Moon Demon Palace looked at the youth next to Ye Yanyu. Ye Yanyu also glanced at Zhao Feng. The Source of True Spirit he just burned was obviously different from his own.
Li Hong's move didn't go to waste. At least, he uncovered one of Zhao Feng's hidden cards.
Zhao Feng had another Source of True Spirit within his body and although it wasn't at the True Lord Rank, it had reached the peak True Mystic Rank and if Zhao Feng burnt it without caring for the price, it could threaten those at the True Lord Rank.
"I said before that this youth wasn't simple. No wonder he wasn't scared when trading with us."
Chi Gui's expression was solemn and felt lucky that he didn't attack Zhao Feng before.
"Li Hong just then had only casually used a move and was tricked by me."
Zhao Feng's mind was calm.
Soon, the geniuses of the three Sects gathered together once more and started to discuss how to deal with the Towering Tree Yao.
The Towering Tree Yao had been injured by the Void God Protection and there was a gap in it now.
Zhao Feng yawned as he lost interest.
Even if they killed the Towering Tree Yao, he wouldn't get the Wood Spirit Essence Soul unless he wanted to become the enemy of all three sects.
At this moment in time.
"Brother Zhao Feng."
A familiar voice from a girl sounded in Zhao Feng's mind.
Who was it!?
Zhao Feng jumped up in fright. This voice was very familiar. It seemed to be…. Zhao Yufei.
But why would Zhao Yufei's voice appear in his mind?
In the next instant.
Shua!
A blurry figure appeared in Zhao Feng's mind and it was Zhao Yufei.
The Zhao Yufei in his mind smiled faintly: "Brother Zhao Feng, I'm the inheritor to the Purple Saint Ruins, but I might need your help to truly control the Ruins."

Chapter 422 - Purple Saint Partial Spirit
In the limitless ocean.
This was a very large space and the sea seemed to extend into eternity.
In the distance, a large mountain stood out amongst misty ocean and it took up several hundred miles.
There was an elegant and noble building on the mountain and the most eye-catching point was the arena and floating spectator stands.
In terms of size, this was ten times bigger than the Sacred True Dragon Gathering's ancient arena.
At this point in time, a large screen that seemed to be made of water appeared in front of the mountain.
The size and quality of the screen was far better than the inheritance shadowings of the Sacred True Dragon Gathering, but there was only one and within it were some clear pictures could be seen.
The pictures seemed to come from another dimension but they looked extremely real and one of the pictures was of a mysterious canyon which included the Towering Tree Yao and nearby small figures of people.
There were several powerful auras near the mountain, but all of them were dead silent.
In the sky, three immeasurable 'powers' seemed to suppress the ghosts and gods of this land.
There was no terrifying aura or burst of Yuan Qi, but a pressure from the soul that pressured thoughts and the mind.
In front of these three 'powers', even the Yuan Qi nearby seemed to be frozen.
The people on the mountain looked up to the source of these three powers like looking up to a God.
Two were male and one was female.
They were respectively:
A golden skeleton with an air of death that sat on a throne made of white bones. A pure and holy female who seemed like a Goddess of the Stars and Moon. A god of the Demonic Dao with black air surrounding him as if they were black holes.
These three 'powers' looked like three gods that ruled the world.
"The Purple Saint Ruins has lost energy dozens of times more than before and there are already several places with weak points already."
The pure and holy moon robed female's voice seemed to be like a swan's.
"Zhe Zhe, Saint Moon Aunt Goddess, looks like the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect is also planning on taking the Purple Saint Ruins for themselves." The golden skeleton said in a deep tone.
"The last time I checked, the energy within the Purple Saint Ruins could sustain it for another hundred years, but now it can only sustain it for twenty. If the three Sects teamed up, we might be able to enter." The demonic male said in a dominant tone.
Attack the Purple Saint Ruins.
The expressions of the other two powers changed and they were slightly moved. But they were obviously filled with more wariness.
The hearts of some of the experts below who heard this thumped.
The Purple Saint Ruins was ranked highly amongst other inheritances and its original owner was one step away from the Heavenly Divine Realm.
For most forces, just to be able to send their people inside to receive the inheritances was a rare opportunity.
Only the three two-star Sects had the ability to even attack the Purple Saint Ruins.
The Purple Saint Ruins was a spatial dimension that contained precious resources, rare beasts, and powerful inheritances. Its value was immeasurable.
If a certain sect was able to control the Purple Saint Ruins, it would be hard to imagine how strong they would become.
"It's not hard for to attack the Purple Saint Ruins with the three sects combined. But as long as the Purple Saint Partial Spirit is there, we can't do anything."
The holy face of the moon robed female was decisive and amongst the three, she was the strongest.
"Although the Purple Night Saint Lord's partial spirits power has lost more than 90% of its power after all these millenniums and its control of the ruins is weakening, it has merged with the core of the ruins and can destroy it with a thought."
Hearing this, the golden skeleton and demonic man went silent.
Although the three Sects could break through the Purple Saint Ruins, it wasn't worth it. After all, the owner was once the 'Purple Night Saint Lord', who had shocked thousands of clans.
"Then what does Aunt Goddess suggest?" The golden skeleton asked.
"Although we can't attack, we can try to increase the speed of the partial spirit losing its energy. In tens of years or even shorter, the partial spirit will run out of energy and then we can enter safely." The moon robed female smiled and said.
The golden skeleton and demonic man faintly nodded their heads.
The Purple Saint Ruins couldn't be forcefully attacked. They could only wear it down and this required patience.
Tens of years for them was the time it took them to enter seclusion once.
"But this time, the Purple Saint Partial Spirit seems to have realized its ending will come soon and used some method to open a path and connect with another place."
Worry appeared on the moon robed female's forehead.
"You're worried…. that the Purple Saint Partial Spirit used a lot of energy to choose an inheritor?" The golden skeleton said.
"That's right. Right now it seems as if one or two outsiders have entered the Ruins. One has to know that because our ancestors had some relationship with the Purple Night Saint Lord that we were allowed within the Ruins."
The moon robed female nodded her head.
"Aye, it's been so long but isn't there any genius at all that the Purple Saint Partial Spirit wants to take over the ruins?"
The demonic man shook his head impatiently.
The three sects had a long history and the number of prodigies that they produced was countless.
"Apparently, the Purple Night Saint Lord had a faint bloodline of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races and her requirement for an inheritor would probably also need the bloodline of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races."
"Ten Thousand Ancient Races? Are you joking? From the ancient era to now, how would such a legendary bloodline appear so easily? In the past ten thousand years, we've only heard of one and no one knew what happened to him/her…."
"That's right, the Ten Thousand Ancient Races bloodlines are all forbidden bloodlines that defy the heavens. For example, the Heaven's Legacy Race of the Heaven's Legacy Inheritance split into countless branches that spread across the world. Apparently, the Light Race ranked 7th in the Ten Thousand Ancient Races was the incarnation of light and when someone from the Light Race died, they would make the area they were in speed by up thousands of years…."
When the three mentioned the Ten Thousand Ancient Races, they were all respectful.
Even the famous Purple Night Saint Lord only had a faint Ten Thousand Ancient Race bloodline.
Purple Saint Ruins, within the mysterious canyon.
The geniuses from the three Sects were discussing how to attack the Towering Tree Yao.
There was a total of five True Lord Ranks and dozens of True Mystic Ranks.
However, Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er, who were the strongest were injured.
"If Brother Lu Tianyi arrived, our chance of killing the Towering Tree Yao will increase greatly. We can wait for him and send people to find him." Ye Yanyu suggested.
She had used the Void God Protection before and with Lu Tianyi's cultivation, he would be able to sense it if he wasn't too far away.
"Hmph, everyone's senses are restricted in the Purple Saint Ruins and Lu Tianyi hasn't appeared for a long time. Maybe he's restricted by some kind of inheritance."
"Lu Tianyi's probably already entered the Ruins Treasured Palace. We can't wait for long."
The Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace both immediately retorted.
Lu Tianyi was too strong and if he arrived, the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace could only stand to the side.
"Why don't we rest half a day and those injured and recover? If Brother Lu has sensed the Void God Protection, he can definitely arrive within half a day. In this time, Brother Li Hong and the other uninjured True Lords can test out the Towering Tree Yao."
Ye Yanyu suggested and the Black Cliff Palace and Moon Demon Palace agreed.
After all, Zhuang Wan'er and Chi Gui were both severely injured and needed to rest.
While the three were talking, Zhao Yufei's voice sounded in Zhao Feng's mind and her image became clearer and clearer.
"That's so cool. Your voice and appearance can appear in my mind."
Zhao Feng couldn't help but admire.
"Hehe, I have Sister Purple Night's help, but unfortunately her power is getting weaker and weaker especially since she forcefully connected to the Azure Flower area. Now she can't fully control the ruins or she could've let Brother Zhao Feng into the Ruins Treasured Palace with just a thought."
Zhao Yufei smiled and said with some worry.
Zhao Feng knew the rough situation of the Purple Saint Ruins.
"Although the original owner of the Ruins had fallen long ago, there was still a will from her soul that remained behind, which was the Purple Saint Partial Spirit."
The Sister Purple Night that Zhao Yufei talked about should be the Purple Saint Partial Spirit.
"What can I do to help?"
Zhao Feng got straight to the point.
If Zhao Yufei became the inheritor to the Purple Saint Ruins, Zhao Feng would also benefit. The two came from the same family and their relationship was always good.
"Firstly, Sister Purple Night has lost too much power. She needs to help me become the inheritor and she has lost almost all control of the dimension. The only advantage we have is that we can see everywhere in the Ruins."
Zhao Yufei paused for a moment as if waiting for Zhao Feng to digest this.
"Oh? Then doesn't this mean that we can know every secret in the Ruins?"
Zhao Feng's eyes lit up.
"Yes, but right now there's a problem. The canyon where Brother Zhao Feng is at is one of the Ruins' sources of energy and one of the weak points. Once the Towering Tree Yao is slain, this weak point will become more obvious and form a flaw. If the flaw is big enough, the experts of the outside world can enter the ruins and disrupt my inheritance."

Chapter 423 - Zhao Feng's Mission
"...Once the Towering Tree Yao is slain, this weak point will become more obvious and form a flaw. If the flaw is big enough, the experts of the outside world can enter the ruins and disrupt my inheritance."
Hearing this, Zhao Feng's expression became to grow solemn.
"You want me to…. Stop the disciples of the three Sects attacking the Towering Tree Yao?"
He couldn't help but take a light breath.
After the Towering Tree Yao was injured by the Void God Protection, it had left an obvious flaw and the disciples of the three sects were bent on taking it down.
If Zhao Feng wanted to stop them, he had to fight against them.
"It's not realistic for Brother Zhao Feng alone, but Sister Purple Night will try her best to make the Ruins Treasured Palace descend. It will be able to protect the Towering Tree Yao and give Zhao Feng a chance to receive an inheritance."
Zhao Yufei explained and this made Zhao Feng let out a small breath.
He didn't think that this mysterious canyon was one of the ruins sources of power and was that important.
Once the Towering Tree Yao was slain, the loss of power would increase and a major flaw may appear.
"Brother Zhao Feng only needs to stall the three Sects until the Ruins Treasured Palace descends."
Zhao Yufei added.
Zhao Feng nodded his head. His only job was to support. If it could be completed, that'd be best but if it couldn't be, done there was nothing he could do.
The main force was the Ruins Treasured Palace.
Once the Ruins Treasured Palace descended Zhao Feng would be able to touch the core of the Purple Saint Ruins and might even get his own inheritance. With Zhao Yufei's help, Zhao Feng's chance would be much higher than the others.
"When will the Ruins Treasured Palace descend?"
Zhao Feng asked.
"At least several hours and at most a day and a half."
Zhao Yufei responded.
In his mind, after talking with Zhao Yufei, Zhao Feng understood the Purple Saint Ruin's situation better.
The Purple Saint Partial Spirit, which controlled the Purple Saint Ruins was about to die and the purpose of its existence was to find an inheritor.
However, it hadn't found an inheritor from the beginning of its existence and as it was coming to its end, it faintly sensed a candidate.
Therefore, the Purple Saint Partial Spirit used the remaining will to cast its inheritance shadowing to the Azure Flower area and because its ranking was quite high and wasn't like the Heavens Legacy Inheritance that only descended part of its inheritance, it faced a great force.
Luckily, the Purple Saint Ruin's power was similar to Zhao Yufei's and was able to descend.
"Brother Zhao Feng, you can ask for what you want and Sister Purple Night will do her best to satisfy you." Zhao Yufei suddenly said.
Zhao Feng went silent. The Purple Saint Partial Spirit had almost lost full control of the ruins or else, it could send away the disciples of the three sects with just one thought. Obviously, the Purple Saint Partial Spirit was dying and it had lost a lot of its original abilities.
"Can it take off the restrictions on my senses?" Zhao Feng asked for something that was realistic.
"It can."
Zhao Yufei replied after a while.
Shua!
Zhao Feng felt his mental energy become light and the restriction from the ruins disappear.
He couldn't help but be overfilled with joy. Without the restriction of the ruins on his mental energy, his God's Spiritual Eye's full capabilities could be used.
This meant that Zhao Feng's senses were extremely strong and were even stronger than those at the Origin Core Realm in the ruins.
At the same time, Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye caught a wisp of invisible power entering his mental energy dimension.
Inspect.
Zhao Feng opened his God's Spiritual Eye and locked onto this invisible power.
Shua!
In the next moment, Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye seemed to see through obstacles.
There was a purple dressed girl sitting in an elegant building trying to refine a crystal key in front of her.
Next to her was a faint woman who could destroy countries with her looks. Although her body wasn't physical and consisted of purple light, her every action and smile contained a superior nobility.
"Hehe, without the restrictions of the ruins, everything's different."
Zhao Feng laughed lightly.
Through his God's Spiritual Eye, he traced the invisible power into the Ruins Treasured Palace and saw this scene.
He realized, that with the rise in his mental energy, his God's Spiritual Eye became more useful.
The purple-dressed girl was obviously Zhao Yufei and the faint figure next to her was without a doubt the Purple Saint Partial Spirit.
"How… is this possible!?"
The Purple Saint Partial Spirit looked at Zhao Feng in disbelief.
More accurately, at the 'Eye of Heaven' above but the latter disappeared with a 'Shua,' as if it was never there.
The mysterious canyon.
Zhao Feng's mind returned back to his body. He had traced the energy back to the other side, mainly to see how Zhao Yufei was.
It was certain that Zhao Yufei wasn't threatened, but instead, she was receiving her inheritance.
Zhao Feng was over-cautious and hence used this. He didn't realize how shocked the Purple Saint Partial Spirit was when she saw this.
Shua!
In his mind, the Purple Saint Partial Spirit's figure appeared next to Zhao Yufei.
"What else is there?"
Zhao Feng relaxed after making sure Zhao Yufei was safe.
"Your eye…." The Purple Saint Partial Spirit said.
What?
Zhao Feng's heart soon moved. The original owner of the ruins was once a master at the Mystic Light Realm and her knowledge was definitely not simple.
Maybe she knew the source of the Purple Saint Partial Spirit.
Thinking up to here, Zhao Feng was expectant of what the Purple Saint Partial Spirit was going to say next.
"I only have a small portion of the memories I had when I was alive. If I was alive right now, I would probably be able to see the source of your eye."
However, the Purple Saint Partial Spirit furrowed her eyebrows and said something useless, making Zhao Feng speechless.
"Although your bloodline isn't of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races, your eye is definitely connected with the Ten Thousand Ancient Races."
The Purple Saint Partial Spirit said with joy.
Zhao Feng didn't feel much after hearing this. He didn't even know what the Ten Thousand Ancient Races were.
What Zhao Feng cared about was whether there was an inheritance that suited him in the Ruins Treasured Palace.
"Unfortunately, there's no suitable inheritance for your eye bloodline. You're more suited for the Ancient Dao of the Soul or the inheritances of the Eight Great God Eyes. Of course, going back a step the Ruins Treasured Palace does have lightning based skills or inheritances regarding your ice bloodline." The Purple Saint Partial Spirit said regretfully.
"At least there is something."
Zhao Feng let out a breath.
He didn't find a truly suitable inheritance in the Sacred True Dragon Gathering. But luckily this time, there were lightning inheritances in the Purple Saint Ruins or ice elemental inheritances that suited his bloodline.
Zhao Feng was already satisfied with this. If he could help Zhao Yufei become the inheritor of the ruins, then Zhao Feng's benefits would be much greater than expected.
A while later, Zhao Feng understood enough and cut the connection with Zhao Yufei and the Purple Saint Partial Spirit.
"Right now, all I need to do is wait for the Ruins Treasured Palace and stall for time so that the Towering Tree Yao isn't killed."
Zhao Feng thought.
Currently, Li Hong was the disciple of the three Sects who was going to attack the Towering Tree Yao and test it out.
Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er were both using this time to recover and the True Lords attacking were only Li Hong and Mo Yu from the Black Cliff Palace.
The two True Lord Ranks led twenty to thirty disciples and attacked the gap in the Towering Tree Yao time after time.
"Hahaha…. This Towering Tree Yao isn't as powerful as I imagined."
Li Hong sent a barrage of attacks and the front and ripples of lightning and water exploded on the branches of the Towering Tree Yao.
The disciples behind also unleashed their skills.
"The Void God Protection created a gap for the disciples and in this area, there are almost no branches. The Towering Tree Yao can only stand there and be hit."
Zhao Feng's eyebrows furrowed as his face grew solemn.
It wasn't that Li Hong was strong and had a good leadership. It was just that the opponent was weakened.
The Void God Protection's attack was too powerful and had cleared a path for the three sects.
Looking closely, Zhao Feng saw that the main body of the Towering Tree Yao had appeared and there were many scorch marks on it.
Peng Peng Boom--
Continuous attacks came from the three sects and landed on the main body of the Towering Tree Yao.
Luckily, the Towering Tree Yao's defense was extremely strong and this place was where the defense was the most powerful.
Although Li Hong was at the late stage True Lord Rank and his offense seemed powerful, his attacks of water and lightning were still restricted by the power of wood and grass.
However, if one place was attacked continuously, ants would still kill an elephant and finally threaten the Towering Tree Yao.
"I can't just sit here."
Thinking up to here, Zhao Feng moved.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Yanyu suddenly opened her eyes and stared coldly at him.
"I'm very sorry for Yu Luo's death. I would like to help the fellow Daoists of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect kill the Towering Tree Yao, even if I'm not very strong."
Zhao Feng swore.
Hearing this, Ye Yanyu's face became suspicious. She didn't believe Zhao Feng had such a good heart.
This guy survived between the cracks of the three sects and never lost anything.
Would he help the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect for free?
"Fine, you can go but don't forget to not leave within three miles of me." Ye Yanyu agreed.
After all, Zhao Feng's suggestion was righteous and was willing to test the Towering Tree Yao. She couldn't decline him.
Secretly, Ye Yanyu told people to tell Li Hong to watch out for Zhao Feng.
"You guys also pay attention to him…"
Ye Yanyu ordered another one or two people.
As they interacted more often, Ye Yanyu found that Zhao Feng was very hard to control and she couldn't see what the latter's motives were.

Chapter 424 - A Wolf wearing the skin of a Sheep
The second Zhao Feng moved, he was spotted by several geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect.
Sou Sou!
The two male disciples that had an enmity with Zhao Feng moved to his left and right as they 'protected' Zhao Feng.
"Thanks."
Zhao Feng gave off a comforted look and Ye Yanyu's eyes twinkled as she watched Zhao Feng's figure move further and further away.
She felt uneasy and this uneasiness increased as Zhao Feng got further away.
Even since Yu Luo's death, Ye Yanyu was instinctively wary and cautious of Zhao Feng.
At this point in time, all her attention was gathered on Zhao Feng and the blue haired figure became more and more mysterious.
As if sensing something, the blue haired youth turned around and smiled at her while looking at her in the eye.
The mysterious left eye seemed to full of limitless ice and it could see through all her secrets.
In that instance, Ye Yanyu's heart shook and a coldness extended throughout her body as if she had been seen naked.
Zhao Feng looked deeply at Ye Yanyu once more before closing in on where the others were attacking the Towering Tree Yao.
"Brother Li Hong, quickly kill Zhao Feng!"
Ye Yanyu's heart jumped as her eyes flashed coldly and an urgent voice sounded.
What? Kill Zhao Feng?
Most disciples of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect looked at Ye Yanyu with puzzled looks. Weren't the two working together?
Before Ye Yanyu was protecting Zhao Feng, and now she wanted to kill him?
The sudden change caused many people to be dumbfounded.
However, the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect was led by Ye Yanyu and they all listened to her.
"Go!"
The two males next to Zhao Feng roared with excitement as they attacked.
"Hahaha, Sister Ye, you've finally thought it through. This brat doesn't suit my eye."
Li Hong laughed as he turned around and charged towards Zhao Feng.
Although he didn't understand why Ye Yanyu was doing this, he was definitely willing.
In reality, Ye Yanyu gave this order due to her 'instincts.'
Thinking back to how Zhao Feng was first threatened then to how he used her to protect himself and survive amongst the three sects, she could see the situation clearly even if she didn't fully understand it.
Firstly, Ye Yanyu couldn't see Zhao Feng's true strength and his intelligence made her feel as if she was losing control.
There was another major point. No matter who Zhao Feng's enemies were, they didn't end well, even if their cultivation was higher.
Yu Luo died as he became Zhao Feng's enemy. The two male disciples had been made fools of by Zhao Feng. Li Hong had wanted to kill Zhao Feng but he was tricked and lost face instead.
At this moment in time, Ye Yanyu suddenly became wary when Zhao Feng asked to help Li Hong and company and because of his last glance.
She was extremely decisive and the second she felt something was off, she ordered them to kill Zhao Feng.
"This woman's instincts are extremely sharp. After Yu Luo's death, she was already suspicious."
Zhao Feng didn't think that Ye Yanyu would be so quick to act. She was indeed fierce.
"Brat, surrender quickly!"
The two male disciples lept towards Zhao Feng from his left and right.
Looking down, Zhao Feng saw that he was already within range of the roots.
"Stall him!"
Ye Yanyu ordered as she flew over as well.
She knew that Zhao Feng was very fast and stronger than the two male disciples. The only thing that they could do right now was to stall Zhao Feng and win a couple breaths time for Ye Yanyu and Li Hong.
The expressions of the two male disciples became solemn as they listened to Ye Yanyu's command and tried to stall Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng's mouth was filled with mockery and a coldness as if he was looking down on ants.
Plop Plop!
The two male disciples fell down from the sky. Before their bodies even touched the ground roots shot out from the ground and wrapped the two.
"Argghhh!"
Two screams came to an end as they became new fertilizers for the Towering Tree Yao.
The present geniuses widened their eyes.
What the hell just happened?
How would two peak True Mystic rank cultivators just fall into the ground?
Zhao Feng didn't do anything at all, all he did was just 'look' at them.
"Mental energy eye technique. With just one glance, he made them fall down."
Chi Gui, who was resting, exclaimed as he saw the truth.
Sii!
The pursuing geniuses of the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect all took a deep breath.
'Zhao Feng, you killed two of our Pure Moon Spiritual Sect disciples and Yu Luo was indeed killed by you…. You hid deep enough."
Ye Yanyu's face was cold and the killing intent from her seemed to materialize.
Even a normal True Lord Rank couldn't make two peak True Mystic Ranks die instantly with one glance.
Zhao Feng had hidden deep and was a wolf covered in sheepskin.
'Brat, it looks like you're the true culprit behind Yu Luo's death. Don't even think about running. Give me your life--"
Li Hong's eyes were bright red and killing intent filled his face as his eyes bulged out.
Qiu!
Zhao Feng's body flashed with lightning and he seemed like the God of Lightning as his Yin Shadow Cloak flapped as his speed jumped up.
In terms of speed, Zhao Feng wasn't much slower than Li Hong of the late stage True Lord Rank.
Shua Shua!
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Feng turned into more than a dozen figures. Some of them were illusions while others were Yin Shadow Doppelgangers.
When Li Hong arrived, the figures had all gone in different directions and Zhao Feng's true body was concealed in the forest.
'He actually ran away…."
Li Hong's face became twisted under his immense killing intent.
Shua!
A faint figure of Zhao Feng suddenly appeared near the ground as ran off.
"Bastard, die--"
Li Hong released his anger and rage and he leapt towards Zhao Feng.
In this instant, all of his emotions had been released and he forgot about the danger on the ground.
As Li Hong was going closer and closer to the ground, the roots below started to get ready.
"What's going on? Why is Li Hong doing the same as Yu Luo before and charging towards the ground?"
"Yu Luo was filled with greed and Li Hong lost his mind due to his anger."
The spectating disciples of the three Sects felt something was wrong.
"Li Hong, watch out!"
Ye Yanyu's expression changed drastically as she yelled.
Her voice was like thunder as it boomed in Li Hong's mind.
Break!
Ye Yanyu waved her hand and a beam of moonlight rushed through the air and destroyed the figure of Zhao Feng.
It was only a Yin Shadow doppelganger.
Li Hong awoke from his dream and realized that he was extremely close to the ground and almost within range of the roots.
Qiu Qiu Qiu!
The roots broke through the earth and shot towards Li Hong.
Li Hong roared and sent beams of water and lightning as his figure turned into an arc of lightning that pushed aside the roots and flew into the skies.
At the last moment, Li Hong had used a secret technique to escape.
"So close!"
Li Hong who had just escaped death was covered in cold sweat.
"Unfortunate…. Just missed this opportunity."
Zhao Feng felt slightly regretful as he stood on the ground.
His Eye of Heart was about to trick Li Hong but it was disabled by Ye Yanyu.
In that instance when Li Hong was filled with rage, a flaw had appeared in his heart and Zhao Feng's Eye of Heart took advantage of it. If Ye Yanyu didn't arrive in time, the Pure Moon Spiritual Sect would have lost a late stage True lord Rank genius.
The weird thing was that Zhao Feng stood on the ground but he didn't receive any attacks from the Towering Tree Yao.
Ye Yanyu coldly locked onto where Zhao Feng stood. Her state of heart, as well as other abilities, were obviously stronger than Li Hong's.
Zhao Feng understood how terrifying Ye Yanyu was and so he continued to travel towards the Towering Tree Yao.
"Why isn't he being attacked by the Towering Tree Yao?"
Ye Yanyu's eyebrows furrowed but she didn't pursue Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng was within the attack range of the Towering Tree Yao but he wasn't attacked by it. No one else had this special 'right.'
Ceng Ceng Sou!
Zhao Feng continuously jumped and landed on the Towering Tree Yao's branches.
"What the heck…. Why isn't the Towering Tree Yao attacking him?"
"This guy's not just weird."
The geniuses of the three sects stared with bulging eyes as they watched Zhao Feng walk easily among the branches of the Towering Tree Yao.
The Towering Tree Yao seemed to ignore his existence.
Teng!
Zhao Feng landed in the inner areas of the Towering Tree Yao and nodded his head faintly: "Towering Tree Yao, let us fight together."
Hu~
The branches of the Towering Tree Yao rattled as it spoke through mental energy.
"When Lord Purple Saint said that there were reinforcements, I thought it would at least be a True Lord Rank. Aye, but it looks like it's just you."
The Towering Tree Yao was somewhat disappointed.
"Hehe, Towering Tree Yao, if I can help you beat this group of people and help you recover by half, how will you repay me?"
Zhao Feng smiled.
The Towering Tree Yao obviously didn't think of its reinforcement much. However, this was normal as Zhao Feng's cultivation was not high enough. Only those at the True Lord Rank or higher would enter the Towering Tree Yao's eye.
"There's five True lord Ranks and dozens of True Mystic Ranks. You think you can beat them alone and help me recover by half? Junior, you overestimate yourself and underestimate the power of the Void God Protection."
The Towering Tree Yao said.
"Stop."
Zhao Feng interrupted the Towering Tree Yao: "If I really do this, can you let me cultivate a bit with your Wood Spirit Essence Soul?"
"Hmph, if you really can do it and help me through this, what's wrong with me letting you cultivate using my origin Wood Spirit Essence Soul?" The Towering Tree Yao agreed instantly.

Chapter 425 - Ten True Lords
Zhao Feng and the Towering Tree Yao soon came to an agreement.
In the forests, Ye Yanyu, Li Hong and Mo Yu from the Black Cliff Palace surveyed the Towering Tree Yao.
"Zhao Feng actually successfully teamed up with the Towering Tree Yao."
Li Hong gritted his teeth. After just passing by the doors of death, his back was drenched in cold sweat and the geniuses of the three sects all found the change in the situation.
At this point in time, Zhao Feng stood on the Towering Tree Yao's branches but the latter was calm and didn't attack him.
"This person's been planning it for a long time and is a wolf hiding in sheepskin. Several disciples of the sect were killed by him, including Yu Luo at the True Lord Rank. If it weren't for my fast reactions, Brother Li Hong probably would have….."
Ye Yanyu's face was filled with killing intent and her chest heaved.
Ever since entering the Purple Saint Ruins, no one had ever made her so mad that she wanted to kill them herself.
From the start, Ye Yanyu seemed to be threatening Zhao Feng but in reality, she was his biggest 'umbrella.'
If it weren't for Ye Yanyu, Zhao Feng, an outsider wouldn't be able to walk steadily and gain benefits amongst the three sects.
"If it wasn't because of me, Yu Luo and them wouldn't have died….."
Ye Yanyu felt guilty and humiliated. Her jade hands were clenched together and her teeth almost pierced her lips.
However, her heart was strong and she soon calmed down.
Ye Yanyu knew that facing Zhao Feng who specialized in mental energy, any flaw in the mind would result in being used.
"Goddess Ye, before you came, the Wicked Teeth three almost all died at this person's hands. He even escaped Chi Gui's tracking skill without being injured." Mo Yu said solemnly.
He had heard Chi Gui talk about Zhao Feng.
"Sister Ye, how would you be used by the brat with your intelligence?"
Li Hong took a deep breath and said in dissatisfaction. If it weren't for her protecting Zhao Feng, the latter would find it hard to live so well.
"This is my fault but relax, I will kill him myself." Ye Yanyu said coldly.
At the same time, she started to think abouth ow she fell into Zhao Feng's plan?
In a spark, she realized the key point which was the most critical part of this plan or else Ye Yanyu wouldn't have been used.
'Little…. Thieving…. Cat!"
Ye Yanyu's figure trembled as she spat out word by word.
This was the weirdest part of the plan. Zhao Feng didn't even know Ye Yanyu before he met her. If the two didn't know each other, why would Zhao Feng trick her?
The true key point was the little thieving cat.
The little thieving cat met Ye Yanyu and purposely led her to it's 'original owner' and seemed to threaten him.
"Little thieving cat!"
Ye Yanyu coldly spread her spiritual sense to detect the little thieving cat.
However, no matter where her spiritual sense went, through clothes and interspatial rings, she couldn't find any trace of it.
Miao Miao!
A dark silver grey cat slightly bigger than a palm stood on Zhao Feng's shoulder.
The human and cat accompanied one another as if they were one.
"Little thieving cat, your plan was dangerous but the rewards are pretty good…."
Zhao Feng smiled faintly and stroked the little thieving cat's ears.
Miao Miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws and made several actions, signaling the bitterness it had faced. Immediately following that, the little thieving cat spat out a part of the Life Returning Grass onto Zhao Feng's hand.
"My Life Returning Grass, little thieving cat, how dare you steal it…."
Ye Yanyu's face went green and red. Her eyes were enough to kill people. With her quiet and calm attitude, she had never been so angry before.
"The little thieving cat still places great importance on emotions and only stole one part of the Life Returning Grass or why would your interspatial rings still have stuff? En, it also told me not to kill you."
Zhao Feng shook his head. Although the little thieving cat had tricked Ye Yanyu, it had only stolen a Life Returning Grass and completed what Zhao Feng asked for.
After all, Ye Yanyu was pretty nice to the little thieving cat.
'I don't need its pity. I will kill this brat myself. Little thieving cat, I don't blame you as we all have different sides."
Ye Yanyu's eyes became warmer when it landed on the little thieving cat.
When the two had paired up, the little thieving cat had given her a lot of luck and joyful times.
Miao Miao!
The little thieving cat waved its paws again and seemed to ask her to do something.
"What…. You want me and him to…. That's impossible!"
Ye Yanyu's face went red and she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Although no one else understood, Zhao Feng still knew what the little thieving cat meant.
"Get in there."
Zhao Feng expressionlessly threw the little thieving cat into the Spiritual Pet Bag by grabbing its ears.
After that, he didn't bother with Ye Yanyu and company anymore and took out the life Returning Grass which he gave to the Towering Tree Yao.
'This is the Life Returning Grass. I believe I've completed half of my promise."
Zhao Feng said.
"Life Returning Grass."
The Towering Tree Yao was surprised and took it with a gust of green wind.
Its main trunk opened like a mouth and it ate the Life Returning Grass. The Life Returning Grass was indeed worthy of being a legendary treasure. Even the damage caused by Void God Protection started to heal.
"Kid, it looks like I've underestimated you. The Life Returning Grass is enough to heal half my injuries but the other half of the deal is that you need to push back these geniuses, which isn't that easy."
The Towering Tree Yao laughed.
Zhao Feng stood on the branches of the tree as his blue hair blew gently in the wind.
He didn't move at all and seemed to be part of the Towering Tree Yao.
Only defend, don't attack. This was Zhao Feng's plan.
The Towering Tree Yao was Zhao Feng's biggest protection and they had the advantage in the landscape.
The three sects didn't attack straight away. Maybe it was because Zhao Feng's 'sudden betrayal' brought too much shock to the three sects.
The five True Lords, Ye Yanyu, Zhuang Wan'er, Li Hong, Chi Gui and Mo Yu got together and started to talk.
"Amongst the True Lords, Chi Gui specializes in eye skills and we hope you can give it your all in the upcoming battle." Ye Yanyu suggested.
Amongst the geniuses that entered the Ruins, Chi Gui's eye bloodline could be said to be among the best.
Back at the cave, his secret technique had even injured Ye Yanyu.
"This brat's eye bloodline is strong but he hasn't reached the True Lord Rank in the end and I have confidence in an eye bloodline faceoff. However, I've still injured from using the forbidden skill before and I'm not 100% certain…."
Chi Gui cried bitterly in his heart. In reality, he was asking the other two sects for treasures.
Ye Yanyu and Zhuang Wan'er looked at each other before taking out some treasures from their interspatial items.
These were enough to help Chi Gui recover.
"Thank you for all your help. Let me heal up a bit and then my Black Wicked Eye will be able to battle that brat."
Chi Gui's voice was raspy and the white flames in his eyes seemed to twist as a dot appeared in the middle.
Everyone was expectant of him as they had all experienced it. Even if it wasn't able to beat Zhao Feng, it could still gain the upper hand.
They foresaw a great battle between the 'Eye bloodlines.'
"I'm looking forward to this as well."
Zhao Feng stood in the tree and none of the actions of the three sects escaped his God's Spiritual Eye.
Chi Gui's Black Wicked Eye was extremely powerful and Zhao Feng had experienced it personally when Chi Gui used the Dark Lantern Ghost Eye, which almost forced Zhao Feng into desperation.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Feng didn't care about the price and finally destroyed the Dark Lantern Ghost Eye, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.
If it was before, Zhao Feng didn't feel confident to face Chi Gui's eye bloodline head on as their difference in cultivation was too big.
However, Zhao Feng had grown rapidly in the ruins and his God's Spiritual Eye became more powerful.
Sou Sou Sou--
The sound of flying came again and the air was filled with wickedness.
"Great, our Moon Demon Palace's reinforcements are finally here."
The geniuses of the Moon Demon Palace exclaimed.
The group from the Moon Demon Palace arrived and the leader was a bald man with black armor whose cultivation had reached the True Lord Rank.
Now the number of True Lord Ranks had reached six.
This wasn't the end. Another hour later, more reinforcements arrived. Some were from the three sects while others were from the one-star clans under them.
As time passed, more and more geniuses started to gather in the mysterious canyon.
All of this was because of Ye Yanyu's Void God Protection which allowed everyone within a thousand miles to feel it.
"There's already over…. A hundred geniuses here." Zhao Feng murmured to himself.
Two hours later. The number of True Lord Rank cultivators present had reached ten.
Amongst them, two or three had broken through to the True Lord Rank in the Purple Saint Ruins.
After all, there was a large number of peak True Mystic Rank geniuses and it wasn't surprising for a couple to break through to the True Lord Rank in the ruins.
"Ten True Lord ranks, a hundred geniuses, all of them not weaker than an overwhelming prodigy of the Azure Flower Continent…. Luckily, that Lu Tianyi hasn't arrived. I told the Purple Saint Partial Spirit to give him some trouble."
Zhao Feng's heart wasn't calm. It was hard to imagine what kind of battle there was going to be.
The nervousness and trembling due to tension from the Towering Tree Yao couldn't escape Zhao Feng's senses.
Indeed.
If there weren't any accidents, with the Towering Tree Yao's current state, it would perish within a maximum of two hours.
