Chapter 2135
"Why don't we join forces first, drive out the rest of these people, and then settle your personal grudges later?"
Hearing Manqiong's persuasion, and with Zhenzi also speaking up to mediate, Qingfeng managed to suppress her impulse and refrain from immediately attacking Li Lan.
But at that moment, Li Lan walked to the front of everyone and slowly spoke:
"The opportunities here are none of your concern. You may leave now."
As Li Lan finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Everyone was stunned; they were all frozen in place.
No one expected Li Lan to say something that would anger everyone so much, showing no regard for anyone else.
"Li Lan, what do you mean?!"
Qingfeng couldn't hold back any longer and shouted:
"You've already stolen the opportunity from the temple. Now that we've just arrived, you want us to leave? Do you think you're invincible?"
"If I were to use my full power, I could kill you right here without their intervention!"
At this moment, everyone around seemed somewhat angry.
They've waited so long here, how could they easily hand over this opportunity to others?
Moreover, he is just a young man who has just arrived here, and his reputation is not even as great as those eight adults.
How dare he say such a thing? Isn't he afraid of attracting everyone's wrath?
"Kid, don't go too far!"
At this moment, one of the eight cultivators standing at the head of the group spoke up again.
Even the most composed Shinji looked at Li Lan and said:
"Fellow Daoist Li Lan, what you're doing is probably inappropriate."
"Even we need to join forces to seize this opportunity. Do you intend to make an enemy of all of us?"
Mako's words, seemingly meant to dissuade Li Lan, actually placed him in opposition to everyone else.
As expected, as soon as Zhenzi finished speaking, even the thousands of cultivators behind him became dissatisfied with Li Lan and wanted to drive him out of the place.
Seeing this, Li Lan sighed, then turned to the crowd and said:
"Everyone, you are all disciples from top sects. Before coming here, you should have received instructions from your respective sects."
"This is no safe place. Once the lair of the Chaos Beast is opened, everyone will probably be in danger."
"That's why you only came here in clones; I think you should be well aware of that."
Upon hearing this, everyone fell into a brief silence.
This is indeed the case.
Before they arrived here, they were told by their elders that they should not stay here for too long after the greatest opportunity in the secret realm opened, lest something unexpected happen.
But the lair of the Chaos Beasts is about to open, so how can they give up so easily?
"Kid, of course we know there are unimaginable dangers here."
"But the fact that we are still standing here safely means that we haven't reached the point where we absolutely have to leave."
"Even if that blockade is completely lifted, we will certainly be able to escape unscathed after obtaining the Chaos Divine Beast's inheritance. Why do we need you to remind us?"
The others shared the same thought and had no intention of leaving the area.
Seeing this, Li Lan sighed helplessly, then said coldly:
"Looks like I'm overthinking it."
"In that case, I have nothing more to say. Please, everyone, make yourselves at home."
Since no one would listen to reason, Li Lan saw no need to save them and decided to let them experience despair firsthand.
Li Lan and Su Yao walked to the side and, like the others, waited for the nest to be fully opened.
"Su Yao, if the situation changes, you should hide in my inner world first, and don't worry about anything else."
Su Yao wanted to face the danger with Li Lan, but under Li Lan's insistence, she had no choice but to obediently agree.
A quarter of an hour later, this small world suddenly began to tremble.
The sky and earth changed color instantly, and countless dark clouds enveloped the area.
Just then, a white beam of light suddenly shot into the sky from the altar in front of them.
The beam of light pierced through the heavens, but was ultimately swallowed up by the dark clouds above.
"The lair has been opened; we can go in now!"
Someone shouted, and everyone rushed towards the altar below.
A white gate of light appeared out of thin air; that was the entrance to the Chaos Divine Beast's legacy.
"Let's go in too."
Zhenzi looked at the other young supreme beings, who had already agreed to enter together to compete for the greatest opportunity.
Once the opportunity arises, they will decide their final destination.
So before that, they were allies.
The next moment, the eight of them followed Zhenzi and entered the gate of light.
Li Lan looked up at the dark clouds overhead, took a deep look, and then led Su Yao into the huge gate of light.
“I feel a power calling to me from the deepest part of me; the legacy of the Chaos Beast must be there.”
After entering the portal, Li Lan sensed something deep within the place calling to him.
It seems to be related to the cultivation technique he practices.
In addition, it was learned from the Buddha that the Chaos Beast Bobo's greatest desire in life was to create an internal world like the Great Thousand Worlds.
Li Lan was certain that it must be the location of Bobo's legacy.
The interior of the altar was vast, filled with chaotic mist, making them feel as if they had arrived at the end of the world.
Here, Li Lan could deeply feel the pervasive aura of various Great Daos, as if numerous illusory images appeared before his eyes.
Along the way, Li Lan and Su Yao saw countless rare and precious materials, and even quite a few powerful divine artifacts.
However, they did not linger there, but went straight to the deepest part of the nest.
Soon, Li Lan and Su Yao encountered a familiar figure.
Savage Sky.
He was standing in front of a pile of rubble, looking at the stones on the ground, seemingly lost in thought.
Noticing Li Lan's appearance, Man Qiong looked up at him and said:
"Brother Li Lan, was everything you said outside the altar true?"
Li Lan didn't have a good impression of Man Qiong, but at the same time, he didn't harbor much hostility towards him either.
He nodded and said:
"Believe it or not, if we wait any longer, I'm afraid even I won't be able to escape."
At this moment, Manqiong suddenly spoke up and asked:
"If that's the case, why don't you just leave instead of coming here?"
Faced with Man Qiong's questioning, Li Lan didn't intend to say much, but simply said:
"I have an agreement with a senior colleague, so I cannot leave for the time being."
"Farewell."
After saying that, Li Lan left with Su Yao without waiting for Man Qiong to believe him or not.
Another fifteen minutes passed before Li Lan finally saw the other seven people.
"what is that?"
Su Yao pointed ahead and said with some shock.
In the center of the seven people, a long sword floated on a stone platform.
"It should be an ancient artifact, of extremely high quality."
Li Lan sensed the boundless killing intent within the longsword, realizing that its former owner must have endured countless bloody battles.
Even though the longsword is broken, its sharpness remains undiminished; it is definitely an ancient artifact!
