Chapter 1068: Chapter 1066: Atop the Twin Towers
"Chaos was inevitable, as the changes in the spiritual energy here attracted many top-tier experts. Ordinary people can’t discern the changes in spiritual energy, but the higher the level of the experts, the more sensitive they are to it. Basically, all these top-tier experts have co for the treasure that is about to appear in this world. It can be said that Tianhai now is not the Tianhai of the past. Anyone with enough strength is desperately trying to get a share of it."
"So, that’s why Tianhai has suddenly seen the appearance of so top-tier experts. With them around, trouble easily arises; not every top-tier expert is restrained. Normally, in the Secular World, these experts are suppressed by the Old Monster and the people from the Four Prominent Families. But now, among the top-tier experts appearing in Tianhai, I suspect a large portion has co from the Hidden World. The people from there don’t care much about the lives of mortals. The only thing to do now is to take one step at a ti and see what happens. When the treasure appears, and once it’s divided, these people will naturally leave."
When Lin Feng heard what the four won said, he nodded. While driving, he slowly explained the reasons behind the recent events in Tianhai. He had already sensed that the item about to appear was extraordinary, which is why many people from the Hidden World had co to Tianhai, this super city. People in the Hidden World had no scruples, which had led to the current chaos in Tianhai.
Having heard Lin Feng say this, the four won finally understood the situation. Since things had already reached this stage, all they could do now, as Lin Feng said, was to take one step at a ti and wait for the treasure to appear, hoping these people would leave after dividing it. Otherwise, no one could directly drive these people away.
"Teacher Lin, what treasure is it, and why would it suddenly appear?"
"Yeah, Teacher Lin, if such a treasure drew all these top-tier experts to Tianhai, it must be sothing unusual, right?"
"Lin Feng, tell us about it. We’re all curious about the treasure."
"The so-called treasure is rely a term, different from what people in the Secular World might think. It’s not gold or silver treasures. For cultivators, the real treasures are so relics from Ancient Tis or so legacies, and, of course, there might be weapons, elixirs, or even Cultivation Techniques. These are the things that are most important in the eyes of a cultivator."
"Teacher Lin, you still haven’t told us, what exactly is about to appear in Tianhai?"
"Judging by the levels of spiritual energy fluctuations, what is about to appear in Tianhai should be the heritage mansion of a great cultivator from the Ancient Tis. The more powerful the person, the more likely they would seal their mansion with a formation or other special thods before they died, waiting for a destined person to explore it years later. If truly destined, they might acquire an incredibly powerful legacy."
"..."
...
Later, as the four won beca interested in the treasure about to appear, they talked with Lin Feng about it. Being amongst their own, Lin Feng was candid. While driving, he discussed these matters with the four won, who were amazed. They had not expected the existence of ancient cultivators, let alone that these powerful beings could seal away their mansions. It all sounded like sothing out of a myth, but they knew Lin Feng was telling the truth, that these things genuinely existed...
...
anwhile, as Lin Feng and the won were in the car, a major incident occurred at Yingbo University...
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The top of a teaching building at Yingbo University suddenly exploded with a roaring sound. The two spires on the rooftop burst apart as if struck by cannonballs, leaving everyone dumbfounded, not understanding how such a thing could happen inside the school.
"Liao Chen, hand over your items and admit your defeat, and I might spare your life! You were so powerful back then, daring to challenge . How co you can’t handle it today? Now you see what a real genius is. Just hand over the items, and I promise you’ll keep your life."
Dressed in black, holding a sword, and looking handso, Gu Shengwu arrogantly pointed his sword at Liao Chen, infuriated as he recalled the events from two years ago when he was defeated by Liao Chen, a re mortal from the Secular World, which was a lifelong humiliation for him.
"Gu Shengwu, back then, it was you who boasted at Wuhua Mountain that no one could challenge you. I just challenged you fairly! Now you see
and you have to compete again, even trying to rob
of my possessions. How shaless can you be?"
Atop another spire, Liao Chen, looking to be in his twenties and of average build with fair skin, dressed in a school uniform, shouted back at Gu Shengwu, his fists clenched and his heart filled with frustration. He couldn’t understand how Gu Shengwu had learned about the relics, and since he was now more powerful, he insisted on challenging him, saying that if he won the challenge, he would take the items. It was outright robbery! Even if he died, he would not let his opponent have his way.
"Ha ha ha ... What a joke. If you don’t want to compete, then don’t. Who do you think you are? You can’t decide now. Let
tell you the truth, today you are dood. I am here for your life and the items you possess. Hand them over sooner, and I might even leave you a whole corpse."
Upon hearing Liao Chen’s words, Gu Shengwu laughed even more arrogantly, and spoke to Liao Chen. Since things had escalated to this point, he no longer wished to hide his intentions and decided to make them clear. After all, Liao Chen was no longer his opponent, and today Liao Chen was undoubtedly going to die; even if he robbed him openly, no one would be able to help Liao Chen.
"You... you’re shaless! Even if I die today, I will never admit defeat to you," Liao Chen said, his face turning red with anger as he cursed upon hearing Gu Shengwu’s words. He had long guessed Gu Shengwu’s intentions, but hearing him put it into words still infuriated him imnsely, thinking how shaless soone could be in this world.
As the two spoke atop the spire, many students had already gathered around, watching Gu Shengwu and Liao Chen at the top of the spire from a distance. The students were all astonished. Was this real or fake? They had never heard about a movie being shot at the school. How could soone be up on the spire? Who exactly were these two people...
But the students said nothing, yet a loud voice suddenly exclaid!
"What are you doing up there? Get down here! The one with the sword, where do you think you are? This is a school, and you dare to commit violence in broad daylight? You’ve got so nerve!" Zhao Jian, having just quarreled with his girlfriend, was already in a bad mood. Without thinking, he shouted upwards in anger.
"Scram!"
Gu Shengwu, hearing Zhao Jian’s nonsense from below, coldly glanced down and uttered a word with a chilling tone. The coldness in his voice could be heard within a few hundred ters radius. As for such an ant, he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention, simply wanting the ant to go away and not disturb his decisive battle with Liao Chen.
"Who do you think you are, talking to
like that? Get down here now, or you’ll really regret it!" Zhao Jian, already furious, exploded with anger upon hearing the response. He pointed upwards, shouting furiously at Gu Shengwu. He was truly enraged now—he was, after all, a departnt head at Yingbo University, and being spoken to like this in front of so many people, where could he even place his face!
This is bad!
Trouble is brewing!
What is Zhao Jian thinking!
...
Though Zhao Jian felt nothing amiss, the security guards who arrived upon hearing the commotion suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold. Instinct told them that the two people above were extrely dangerous. Even a fool could tell that these two were experts. Zhao Jian was still provoking them with his words. Wasn’t this seeking death? A big incident was about to unfold...
And as expected, just when they had co to this realization, Gu Shengwu suddenly made his move. Waving his hand, a white Sword Gang, several ters long, ford in the air and looked like a white crescent moon from afar. It carried an overwhelming force and cut through the air toward Zhao Jian at an unimaginable speed.
"Boom!"
With a sound that tore through the air, the Sword Gang slashed down from the high spire, instantly creating a several ter long trench in the ground, as if a giant sword had indeed sliced the earth. The ground trembled as if an earthquake had been triggered, and even students hundreds of ters away were knocked down. A few who were slightly closer nearly passed out from the shock. The power was beyond what these ordinary people could imagine...
My god! Are they even human?
Zhao Jian, who was near the path of the Sword Gang, was instantly blown away by its residual force, crashing into a tree and spewing a mouthful of blood. He was utterly terrified, his mind a blank. How could he have known that the person above was so powerful? They weren’t human at all, they were like great demons. Even those superheroes in movies probably weren’t as powerful as that person. Was that person even human or a ghost? How could they be so terrifying... This isn’t human at all!
Looking at the massive trench a few ters away, Zhao Jian’s body broke out in cold sweat in an instant, almost terrified to the point of wetting himself. If he had been standing by the trench, he probably would be nothing more than debris now. Thinking this, he wanted to run, but his legs wouldn’t move, unable to take even a step.
For a mont, everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned, standing like wooden statues, not even breathing out loud in the eerily silent atmosphere. Their backs drenched with sweat, they couldn’t believe that soone so terrifying had appeared at the school...
"If you want to live, run as far as you can!" Seeing the stupefied crowd below, Liao Chen shouted urgently, signaling for them to leave quickly. If everyone left, he could give his all in the battle with Gu Shengwu.
Liao Chen’s voice was loud and his words were very clear. The surrounding people, upon hearing his shout, finally snapped out of their shock. They realized that this wasn’t a movie scene, but a real showdown between true experts. Everyone imdiately fled for their lives, no longer interested in watching the excitent. If they risked their lives, it would be a huge loss.
Zhao Jian, who was already in poor health, suddenly burst into a sprint under the threat of death, running even faster than the security guards, surprising them as they watched. Then, they too fled alongside Zhao Jian. After running a few hundred ters, Zhao Jian suddenly realized sothing—that this situation had completely spiraled out of control. He must inform Ding Wan’er imdiately; he couldn’t bear such a heavy responsibility. Thinking this, he ran while dialing Ding Wan’er’s phone.
