Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: Unexpected

Deep within Xuanming Mountain, halfway up a towering peak, there lies a hidden cave abode, its entrance masked by a towering ancient tree. Surrounded by mountains, it overlooks a precipice thousands of feet tall.

The intricate mountain forest truly makes it a difficult place to be discovered.

And now, the mountain peak is surrounded by practitioners.

“Shall we go straight in?”

Chasing Moon looked at Feng Wuchen for his opinion.

“You’re also unsure whether the cave really contains the Primordial Spirit Power of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert; there’s no need to risk entering,” Feng Wuchen shook his head.

“The cave has a powerful barrier. With no one having entered, no one knows what’s inside. Let them fight over it. Such a powerful barrier won’t be broken easily,” Feng Wuchen continued.

No one knows for sure if the cave does contain the Primordial Spirit Power of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert. Carelessly entering could be dangerous.

“Even Heavenly Monarchs might not be able to break a barrier set up by a Heavenly Deity Realm expert,” Chasing Moon frowned.

“That’s not necessarily true. The aura of the barrier has already weakened significantly. If Heavenly Monarch experts join forces, they should be more than capable of breaking this barrier,” Bright Moon said.

“How they break the barrier is their business, not ours,” Feng Wuchen shrugged.

“After they break the barrier, how will we compete for treasures? With so many of them and so few of us, we’re no match,” Chasing Moon frowned.

“The Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect is no easy target. Let’s be the opportunists waiting to take advantage. Breaking the barrier won’t be easy; it will at least drain a lot of their strength,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile.

In a situation where they were outnumbered, they could only look for an opportunity to act.

Moreover, with so many forces present, few would dare to be enemies with the Moon God Palace.

“The barrier is very strong. It can’t be broken by an individual alone; we have to join hands,” Ye Yongli stated expressionlessly, looking towards the Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect and other Heavenly Monarch powerhouses.

The Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect smiled lightly, “Naturally, if we work together, breaking this barrier should not be a problem.”

“Begin!” Ye Yongli did not waste words.

“Buzz, buzz!”

Heavenly Monarch level powerhouses began to channel their powers fully. Terrifying forces erupted one after another, shaking the void and causing the mountain to tremble violently.

“Swish, swish, swish!”

“Boom, boom, boom!”

“Buzz, buzz!”

A succession of terrifying forces bombarded the green barrier sealing the cave, producing deafening explosions. The energy ripples rolled wave after wave, like raging tides.

The observers around the site stepped back, not daring to get close.

After several minutes of continuous bombardment, the strong barrier was getting weaker and weaker, emitting a dimmer blue light.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

“Crack!”

Five Heavenly Monarch powerhouses bombarded in succession. When the power of the barrier weakened to a certain point, it suddenly cracked open with a snap.

The surrounding towering mountains were completely transformed.

The barrier was shattered, and the crowd was excited, as if they all wanted to rush in first.

“Enter,” Ye Yongli said expressionlessly, taking the lead into the cave, with the Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect and others following.

“Should we go in?”

“I think we better not. Let’s not risk our lives for a Heavenly Deity Realm expert’s treasure.”

“We can’t afford to offend the Moon God Palace. Ye Yongli is too powerful; it’s better just to watch.”

Many observing cultivators wanted to enter the cave, but considering Ye Yongli’s formidable strength and the fact that the Moon God Palace was one of the major forces under Emperor Ling, they didn’t want to risk their lives.

Some Family Head powerhouses also followed into the cave after.

“Such a fierce aura! This is the aura of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert!”

“The cave really contains the Primordial Spirit Power of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert!”

Inside the cave dwelling, Ye Yongli and others all felt the terrifying presence of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert, each one of them extremely jubilant.

The terrifying aura had already begun to permeate from inside the cave dwelling as the barrier was breached.

“The Primordial Spirit Power of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert, it’s definitely unmistakable!” Chasing Moon spoke excitedly as he turned his gaze towards Feng Wuchen.

“Aren’t you planning to go in?” Just as Chasing Moon’s voice fell, a cold voice suddenly rose behind them.

“Heavenly Deity Realm!” Feng Wuchen’s expression changed dramatically, as he had not noticed anyone approaching.

“That voice is… a venerable from the Spirit Emperor Temple!” Chasing Moon’s heart trembled with terror as he abruptly turned to look.

“This is bad!” Bright Moon’s pretty face drastically changed.

“Boom! Boom!”

“Pfft! Pfft!”

In the blink of an eye, a black shadow flashed by, and both Chasing Moon and Bright Moon spat out blood as their figures were sent flying.

Chasing Moon and Bright Moon sustained severe injuries in an instant.

“Chasing Moon, Bright Moon!” Feng Wuchen was shocked and dismayed.

The venerable from the Spirit Emperor Temple moved too fast, they had no chance to react.

“We’ve been tricked! The cave dwelling of a Heavenly Deity Realm expert was just a decoy, the purpose was to lure us out! No wonder I’ve been feeling uneasy this whole time.” Feng Wuchen said angrily in his heart.

Regrettably, he realized too late.

“Are you Wind Shadow? I heard you impersonated me, is that right?” In the blink of an eye, a middle-aged man appeared in front of Feng Wuchen.

The person was none other than Gu Xingfeng, a venerable from the Spirit Emperor Temple, with a late-stage Heavenly Deity Realm cultivation, his strength extremely terrifying.

Throughout the entire Ling Realm, less than five figures could contend against him.

“Whoosh!”

“Bang!”

“Buzz! Buzz!”

Just at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared, throwing a punch towards the venerable of the Spirit Emperor Temple, who instantly sensed it and turned around to meet the punch, resulting in a thunderous explosion as the destructive energy wildly swept across.

The sudden explosive sound shocked everyone from Xuanming Mountain tremendously; the incredibly terrifying power that burst forth scared their souls out of their bodies.

“Heavenly Deity Realm expert!” Everyone panicked and retreated.

No one knew what had happened, but faced with such terrifying power, no one dared to stay.

“Big Brother Tianming!” Feng Wuchen exclaimed in delight.

“Tianming, I knew you would show up,” Gu Xingfeng said with a cold laugh, fixing his icy gaze on Tianming.

The person who had suddenly intervened to protect Feng Wuchen and the others was Tianming, but regrettably, even with the element of surprise, he still couldn’t make Gu Xingfeng budge.

“Wind Shadow! Run! Don’t worry about me!” Tianming shouted, his expression grave.

“Tianming, with your strength, you are no match for Yun Zhongzi, I am very curious how you killed him. Is it worth it to die for a mere Wind Shadow?” Gu Xingfeng said coldly.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

At that moment, Ye Yongli and the Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect flashed into the scene.

“We pay our respects to the venerable!” Everyone kneeled respectfully on one knee.

“Capture Wind Shadow!” Gu Xingfeng ordered.

“Yes!” Ye Yongli and the Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect obediently accepted the command.

The Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect shouted angrily at Feng Wuchen, “You little shit, you killed the Great Elder and Chief Disciple of my Glazed Light Sect, don’t even think about leaving here alive today! Our sect will certainly cripple you, you bastard!”

“Bastard!” Feng Wuchen wanted to rescue Chasing Moon and Bright Moon, but the appearance of Ye Yongli and others at this moment made him curse out in anger.

The appearance of Ye Yongli and the Sect Master of the Glazed Light Sect made it even clearer that this was a trap!
