The atmosphere was sacred and solemn.
When Qianye Zhenfeng reached the Plane Crack, it seed like a divine lody was emanating from within the fissure.
Then, bathed in Divine Light, Qianye Zhenfeng slowly ascended, abandoning everything behind.
With a flash of light, Qianye Zhenfeng finally disappeared into the Plane Crack and left for the Divine World.
anwhile, the Plane Crack closed behind him, leaving only a vast expanse of azure sky and the tumultuous smoke of battle beneath it.
The cultivators could hardly calm themselves for a long ti.
No one did not envy Qianye Zhenfeng's ascension.
However, so recalled that Qianye Zhenfeng's expression during his ascension seed amiss.
Was that anger, reluctance?
It looked as if he even cursed loudly in the midst of the heavenly Divine Light.
Yet, no one could make out exactly what he cursed.
"Qianye Zhenfeng was the Qianye Family's Great Emperor tasked with defending the nation; his ti to ascend had not yet co."
"It seems he was reluctant to ascend under such circumstances."
"Nevertheless, he did eliminate a nace for us, as he killed Lin Hao."
People whispered among themselves.
However, so wondered: "He was ant to kill Lin Hao, and his ascension was within expectation; why was he so filled with rage and reluctance? Could it be..."
Before that person could finish speaking, everyone suddenly had an ominous premonition and turned their heads to look towards the explosion site.
The rolling dust cloud revealed a mountain that had been completely leveled, leaving a huge crater in its wake.
Trees vaporized where they stood, others burned fiercely, and even a pool of lava ford on the ground.
"There!"
All of a sudden, soone pointed to the distance, shouting excitedly.
Everyone's gaze followed, and they were montarily stunned.
They saw Lin Hao, holding a cauldron in one hand and being supported by the Nine Profound Heavenly Elder on the other, limping away into the depths of the forest. As he entered the undergrowth, he staggered and spat out a mouthful of blood!
"It's Lin Hao! He's actually not dead!"
"After such a powerful attack, he's still alive; am I seeing things?!"
Everyone was astonished beyond words, trying to imagine how Lin Hao could have survived an attack like Qianye Zhenfeng's.
And yet, there he was, not dead!
"But he's injured, and it looks serious."
As they watched Lin Hao enter the forest with the support of the Nine Profound Heavenly Elder, everyone's hearts churned like the turbulent sea, unable to settle down.
"Strike him down while he's weak! We can't let him escape!"
Soone roared, and the entire crowd began to stir.
Rush him?
Kill Lin Hao?
This thought crossed everyone's mind; killing Lin Hao might earn them a divine reward from the God above.
Moreover, with Lin Hao injured, they might actually have a chance of success!
However, the Loose Cultivators were disorganized; no one was willing to lead the charge.
But within the Northern Border Alliance Army, the commanding flags were waved as a Supre Emperor stepped forward to reorganize the troops for the encirclent and hunt.
"If he escapes into the deep mountains, it will be hard to find him. Once he heals and recovers, then we'll have no chance!" soone suddenly exclaid, considering the possibility.
"Psh, how big can Chong Mountain be? With so many of us, are we unable to kill a single wounded Lin Hao?" soone scoffed, not having co to their senses.
"What if he makes it into Tianxuan Cave?"
```
Then, silence fell.
Tianxuan Cave is a legendary bottomless cave, a true place of absolute desolation and death. It is because of Tianxuan Cave that Chong Mountain is known as a place of death.
It is said that out of every ten who enter Tianxuan Cave, only one may return alive, and it's unrelated to their cultivation.
But even those who co back alive cannot explain what it's like inside Tianxuan Cave; they don't even know why they survived while the others perished.
There is a legend that says Tianxuan Cave is the mouth of a living creature. This creature chooses to consu the lives that enter its mouth and only occasionally spares so.
Those who can co out alive are not necessarily more powerful; they are simply lucky to have been spared.
"What if he dies in Tianxuan Cave?"
So harbored hope against hope.
"But what if he finds Divine dicine inside Tianxuan Cave?"
Others sneered, growing increasingly uneasy.
"Damn it, stop dawdling. If you don't dare go, I will!"
"As cultivators, how can we be timid? Those who are afraid will never achieve the Great Dao or ascend to the Divine World!"
Like-minded individuals quickly regrouped and set off in pursuit of the direction Lin Hao had vanished.
anwhile, Nine Profound Heavenly Elder, staggering, supported Lin Hao through the forest, moving closer to the location of Tianxuan Cave.
On the periphery, the giant beasts, stunned by Qianye Zhenfeng's furious attack, still hadn't recovered.
Nurous evil beasts lay trembling on the ground, ignoring the presence of Lin Hao and Nine Profound Heavenly Elder.
Figures flickered as Sunset Three Laughs and others followed in pursuit.
"How is it? Are the injuries serious?"
Sunset Three Laughs looked at Lin Hao with a clouded face, full of concern.
"Struck by Qianye Zhenfeng's attack, if he didn't die, he would at least be severely injured. Looks like the Divine dicine is none of our business. We should find an opportunity to leave." The mont Weiwei saw Lin Hao injured, he decided not to get involved in this dangerous affair; it was too terrifying.
But before their words even finished, Lin Hao suddenly raised his head, broke free from Nine Profound Heavenly Elder's grasp, looking relaxed and even smiled, "What are you talking about? I was pretending."
"Pretending... Pretending!!"
Sunset Three Laughs and Weiwei were stunned.
They couldn't believe their eyes.
Lin Hao had pretended to be injured and deceived them all!
No... that's not the point...
Their expressions changed again!
Lin Hao was unhard despite Qianye Zhenfeng's powerful attack!
What was going on!
They had already put themselves in his place. If they had been under that kind of attack and not desperately trying to ascend, they would certainly not have co out unscathed.
Minor injuries were one thing, but death was a possibility!
But Lin Hao... looking at him now, indeed he didn't have a scratch on him, not even a rip in his clothes!
"This... I really take my hat off to you!" Weiwei's eyes bulged, dumbfounded and disbelieving.
"What are you planning to do?" Sunset Three Laughs was shocked too, but then overjoyed, glancing at the Divine Cauldron in Lin Hao's hand, quite excited.
"Of course, to take the opportunity to rush into Tianxuan Cave. I'm going to set a trap for them, making them kindly join in soup-making!"
Lin Hao's mouth curled slightly as he turned and sprinted toward Tianxuan Cave.
"Making soup?"
This wasn't the first ti Weiwei and the others had heard the phrase "making soup." But they couldn't understand why Lin Hao wanted to make soup.
And what did making soup have to do with those cultivators.
However, they did clearly rember that when Lin Hao said "soup," they were part of it too!
"Let's go, charge in." Weiwei tried to calm himself down, looking at Lin Hao's retreating figure: "The evil beasts are still subdued by the might of Qianye Zhenfeng's attack. Perhaps we can seize this opportunity to enter Tianxuan Cave."
