Chapter 238 Reunion with an Old Friend in the Illusionary Moon Cave
Turning our gaze to the other side, the Beast God arrived at the Qingyun Gate with lightning speed and immediately saw that the righteous and demonic forces were already engaged in fierce battle.
The entire Qingyun Mountain was captivated by this earth-shattering battle, and everyone's attention was focused on it.
Faced with such a golden opportunity, how could the Beast God easily let it slip by?
For him, it would be best to achieve his goal effortlessly; who would want to go through all sorts of hardships to get what they want?
However, to the Beast God's utter surprise, despite believing his actions to be sufficiently secretive, he still couldn't escape Ling Feng's incredibly powerful divine sense.
After all, Ling Feng had already entered the realm of Earth Immortal. His divine sense could not only be released freely, but also act like radar, allowing him to closely monitor every move happening on Qingyun Mountain at all times.
In comparison, the Beast God's current cultivation level is only at the Refining Void and Harmonizing Dao realm, still within the mortal realm. Although he can also project his divine sense, its range and sensitivity are far inferior to Ling Feng's peak level.
Moreover, his trip was characterized by a clear and unwavering goal.
Their destination was none other than the renowned Qingyun Sect's secret realm—the Illusion Moon Cave!
Fortunately, he had already conducted an in-depth investigation and understanding of the Qingyun Sect before this.
Therefore, he knew exactly where this mysterious Illusion Moon Cave was located.
It should be noted that Qingyun Mountain is vast and boundless. If one does not know the exact location beforehand, finding the hidden Illusion Moon Cave in this boundless mountain range would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
It turns out that the Illusion Moon Cave is located in a secluded valley behind Qingyun Mountain.
Since this place is a forbidden area of the Qingyun Sect, it is rarely visited by people, let alone those insignificant people who would dare to trespass.
For this reason, there were no guards standing watch or patrolling disciples here.
However, to prevent anyone from accidentally wandering in, the Qingyun Sect meticulously set up an exquisite and bewildering array at the entrance of the valley.
Anyone who is unaware of this place will lose their way without realizing it and eventually have to leave on their own, unable to uncover even a fraction of the secrets within this valley.
However, this seemingly indestructible illusionary array proved to be as fragile as paper in the face of the powerful Beast God.
With a flash, he effortlessly traversed the dense fog of the great formation, arriving at the entrance of the cave in the blink of an eye.
Right at the entrance of this cave, there is a layer of light curtain as transparent as crystal, which stands between the inside and outside of the cave like an insurmountable barrier.
Upon entering this place, he couldn't help but feel a sense of apprehension and dared not act rashly in the slightest.
Because of the renowned Illusion Moon Cave, whose mysterious and dangerous nature made him dare not be careless.
If one is not careful and gets trapped and unable to escape, the consequences will be unimaginable, and all the previous efforts will be in vain.
After a fierce internal struggle and self-encouragement, he finally mustered the courage to take that cautious and slightly hesitant step.
Each step felt so heavy, as if it carried a thousand-pound burden.
However, having already gone through so many hardships to get here, how can we give up halfway?
No matter what difficulties and obstacles await him, he must never back down even a step!
As he slowly passed through the transparent light curtain, an extremely intense and malevolent aura rushed towards him like a surging tide.
The intensity of this malevolent energy far exceeded his expectations, even giving him an unprecedented sense of excitement and longing.
At that moment, he could hardly contain his inner impulse and wanted to sit down cross-legged immediately and devote himself to absorbing the long-awaited malevolent energy.
But after a brief moment of impulsiveness, reason prevailed again.
He knew that this place was a secret and important location of the Qingyun Sect, and it would be too ostentatious and presumptuous to openly cultivate here.
Putting aside the various troubles this move might cause, the mere fact that someone might accidentally witness it and interfere with his cultivation process would be enough to make all his previous efforts go to waste and result in more harm than good.
So, after careful consideration, he suppressed his eager desire and resolutely chose to temporarily put aside his cultivation and instead delve into the cave to find out what was going on.
At this moment, he had already calmed his mind and banished all distracting thoughts from his mind.
Before him lay a long, winding, narrow passage, like a serpent, seemingly stretching into the endless darkness, its end unknown.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly released his powerful divine sense, which spread out like an invisible net.
A moment later, his brows relaxed slightly, because after careful sensing, he did not detect any danger ahead.
He let out a soft breath, feeling a little relieved, and then walked with firm steps into the depths of the passage.
As they ventured deeper inside, the pervasive malevolent aura grew increasingly intense, as if they could smell a pungent stench of blood.
However, faced with such a strong sense of malevolence, the Beast God showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, he became even more delighted.
For him, this malevolent energy was an excellent tonic; the more abundant the energy it contained, the greater the increase in his strength would be after he absorbed and refined it.
And so he continued forward tirelessly, and time slipped away unnoticed.
Finally, after a long walk, the view suddenly opened up and became bright.
When he stepped into this open space, he realized that it was a huge and peculiar hollow circular building.
At this moment, he was standing in the open space in the center of the building.
This circular building is grand in scale and imposing in appearance.
It has eight entrances evenly distributed around it, and above each entrance is a large, eye-catching character carefully carved, namely “Qian”, “Kan”, “Gen”, “Zhen”, “Xun”, “Li”, “Kun”, and “Dui”.
He had just arrived here through the entrance marked with the character "乾". As for the other entrances, they were also connected to corresponding passages, but where those passages led was unknown.
The building is surrounded by four wide staircases, which can be climbed to the top.
The upper outer part of the building is surrounded by a passageway leading to the top, which, when viewed from a distance, resembles a giant dragon spiraling upwards.
As for where he was going after climbing to the top, he had no time to care about such details at this moment.
He was completely captivated by the intense and intoxicating atmosphere of violence in the area.
After careful investigation and comparison, he was shocked to find that the concentration of malevolent energy here was four or five times that outside the door!
Such a striking difference secretly delighted him.
Recalling his wondrous experience in the Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Realm, he assumed that there must be some kind of treasure hidden here, otherwise there wouldn't be so much malevolent energy.
So he began a thorough search of this mysterious place, trying to find the treasure that could continuously generate malevolent energy.
However, despite his thorough search, he ultimately found nothing.
Faced with this result, he initially felt somewhat disappointed and frustrated, but he quickly adjusted his mindset and gave up the idea of continuing to search for the source of the resentment.
After all, the world is full of unknowns and variables, and sometimes no matter how hard you try, you may not get what you want.
However, although the source of the malevolence could not be found, this did not discourage or discourage the Beast God.
On the contrary, he was full of confidence in himself.
He was confident that as long as he could absorb all the malevolent energy in this place, his own strength would be greatly enhanced.
At that time, let alone reaching the peak state of refining emptiness and merging with the Dao, it is even possible to break through this shackle in one go and enter the legendary realm of immortals, which is probably not a pipe dream!
Thinking of this, his eyes gleamed with excitement and determination, as if he could already see that bright and glorious future beckoning to him.
However, for the Beast God, strength is not the ultimate goal.
Deep in his heart, he always cherished a single and unwavering pursuit:
When his own strength increases, that will be the time for him to destroy all living things in this world.
Once everything has fallen silent, he will follow Linglong's footsteps and stay with her.
At present, the only person who can stop him from putting his grand plan into practice is Ling Feng.
As for the others, in his eyes they were all as vulnerable as chickens and dogs, and there was no need to worry about them at all.
Although he had previously been wary of Ling Feng's strength, finding him unfathomable and elusive, he was confident that he would not be afraid of Ling Feng once he successfully absorbed all the malevolent energy in the area.
In this way, his carefully planned scheme can be successfully implemented.
Thinking of this, the Beast God immediately calmed his mind, sat cross-legged on the ground without hesitation, and began to absorb the surrounding malevolent energy for cultivation.
In an instant, a massive vortex of malevolent energy suddenly formed above the Beast God's head, rapidly drawing in malevolent energy from all directions and pouring it all into his body.
Just as the Beast God silently infiltrated the Illusion Moon Cave, a fierce battle was still raging on at the other side of Tongtian Peak.
Wan Renwang, dressed in a black robe that fluttered in the wind, exuded an aura as imposing as a deep pool and a towering mountain. The Fulong Cauldron in his hand shone brightly, colliding with the sharp sword energy emanating from Dao Xuan's Zhuxian Sword Formation. For a moment, the sound of metal clashing together was deafening.
This extraordinary battle captivated everyone's attention. The two fought back and forth, neither giving an inch, their moves exquisite and breathtaking.
However, despite both sides giving their all, it was difficult to determine a winner in the short term.
As time went on, the battle intensified, and the two gradually fell into a state of self-forgetfulness, their eyes fixed only on each other and their attacks, oblivious to everyone else around them.
Meanwhile, the onlookers watched the battle with bated breath, secretly wondering who would emerge victorious in this fierce fight.
These onlookers knew they couldn't control the final outcome of the battle, but they were unwilling to simply be spectators.
So, once someone made the first move, a chaotic mass battle instantly erupted.
In an instant, all sorts of magical treasures flew across the sky like shooting stars; dazzling magical lights rose and fell, weaving together a bizarre and wonderful scene.
Everyone is desperately using their special skills in order to survive this chaotic battle.
At this point, the situation was out of control, and everyone was struggling to protect themselves.
Amidst this chaos, Biyao, whose strength was relatively weaker, found herself in a precarious situation.
It should be noted that among the demonic forces that came this time, she was considered to be the weakest.
As the saying goes, "pick on the weak," those Qingyun Sect disciples who were slightly weaker naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass, and all set their sights on her.
However, despite the tense situation, she remains an unyielding obsession deep in everyone's heart.
Therefore, no matter what, he absolutely could not allow Biyao to encounter any mishap.
Therefore, while fiercely battling and defending himself against Dao Xuan, he also had to spare some attention to keep an eye on Bi Yao's situation.
Meanwhile, Ling Feng remained hidden in the shadows, keeping his eyes fixed on Bi Yao.
He certainly couldn't just stand by and watch Biyao be in danger.
Because of Wan Renwang's overt care and Ling Feng's covert protection, Bi Yao undoubtedly became the one among them with the least worries.
Turning his gaze to the Qingyun Sect, Ling Feng also noticed many familiar faces.
Time flies, and three whole years have passed since we last met.
Surprisingly, the former "three little ones" have all greatly increased their strength and have all entered the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation!
It is easy to imagine that during these long three years, they must have each experienced some extraordinary adventures.
Otherwise, based solely on their original talent and aptitude, their progress in strength would probably not have been so rapid.
It should be noted that as the eldest daughter of the Ghost King Sect, Biyao has access to virtually inexhaustible cultivation resources.
Moreover, Biyao's own talent for cultivation is quite remarkable.
Even so, she is only at the early stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation so far.
It is clear that the opportunities these "three little ones" encountered were extraordinary.
Although it is true that Biyao was not very enthusiastic about cultivation.
Even so, the cultivation resources possessed by the three little ones are still incomparable to those of Biyao, like fireflies vying for the brilliance of the moon.
Not to mention the three little ones, there is another person in the Qingyun Sect whom Ling Feng is familiar with.
This person is naturally Lu Xueqi.
Lu Xueqi is also exceptionally talented. Through her unremitting efforts and outstanding aptitude, she has successfully cultivated to the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation. Such an achievement is rare among her peers, making her a rare cultivation prodigy.
Thinking back to their first meeting, Ling Feng ruthlessly snatched the Heavenly Sword from Lu Xueqi's hands.
To outsiders, this action certainly seemed rather unromantic.
It should be noted that Lu Xueqi is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also naturally beautiful, with a face like a fairy, truly a rare beauty in the world.
Even Ling Feng himself had secretly wondered what kind of heart he had that made him so cruel as to do such a thing.
