Chapter 847

"Your punishment is to stay stuck here for three days."

"After three days, figure out how to get out yourself."

Yi Feng yanked Lu Benwei—along with his sword—out of the ground and tossed him straight onto a tree, impaling him there.

After cursing a few more times, Yi Feng finally walked away, satisfied.

"Buried by the teleportation array entrance?"

"Hmph!"

"That damn thing, hiding it quite well."

With his hands clasped behind his back, Yi Feng strode toward the teleportation array.

Meanwhile, outside at the teleportation array site, the Three Lives Sect had begun digging within the area unaffected by the Black Domain.

With dozens of hands working at once, their progress was astonishingly fast.

They had already dug a pit over a hundred zhang deep.

"There’s a fluctuation! Haha, there really is one!"

From the pit, Sun Li and the others erupted in excitement.

They could all clearly sense some kind of treasure beneath them.

"Judging by the energy, it’s only a few zhang deeper now," Sun Li said eagerly.

"Good, let’s push harder and dig it out quickly!"

The other elders were equally thrilled.

Their anticipation for the treasure was immense.

Even in their original Heavenly Domain, they had never heard of any artifact capable of shielding an entire area from the Black Domain’s influence.

Most treasures would gradually lose their power under the Black Domain’s corrosion.

So even without seeing it yet, they were certain—this had to be a peerless treasure.

A few zhang deeper was nothing for cultivators of their level.

Soon, a black box was uncovered.

"Whoa!"

At the sight of it, Sun Li and the others gasped.

The faint but terrifying aura emanating from the box was unlike anything they had ever encountered.

Its level seemed beyond their comprehension.

"Hahaha, we finally found it! All this digging wasn’t for nothing!" Sun Li cheered.

At the same moment—

A ripple went unnoticed in the pit.

A white-robed young man appeared at the bottom.

"Nani?"

Yi Feng, who had just teleported from Dark Shadow Island, stared blankly at the earthen walls around him.

He couldn’t help but look up at the sky.

A hundred zhang—over three hundred meters.

From this depth, only a tiny patch of blue sky was visible, giving him the oppressive feeling of being at the bottom of a well.

Damn it!

Which bastard dug such a deep pit right outside my door?

As he cursed inwardly, he heard Sun Li’s voice nearby.

"Hurry, hurry! Dig it out carefully—don’t damage it! After digging this deep, we can’t let our efforts go to waste!" Sun Li commanded.

Hearing this, Yi Feng turned his head and finally noticed the dozens of people gathered around a wooden box on the ground.

He recognized it instantly.

Wasn’t this the box he’d made himself to stash his money?

Oh, so that’s what’s going on.

These guys are thieves!

That idiot Lu Benwei must’ve been seen burying the immortal crystals, and these thieves caught wind of it.

So this massive pit outside his door was dug just to steal his money.

Though, to be fair, Lu Benwei had buried it ridiculously deep.

And these thieves were even crazier—digging over three hundred meters for a box containing just a few dozen immortal crystals?

But thieves were thieves.

And they had the audacity to rob him right at his doorstep? Unforgivable!

"Hey! You thieves—don’t move!" Yi Feng barked sternly.

His shout startled Sun Li and the others.

Their focus had been entirely on the box, so they hadn’t noticed the newcomer.

"Who are you?" Sun Li demanded warily.

"Who am I? I’m the owner of that box! Stealing my things, huh? Put it down right now!" Yi Feng commanded with authority.

"The owner?"

Sun Li’s expression darkened.

So this guy was after the box too?

After all their hard work, they weren’t about to hand it over.

"Hmph, what gives you the right to claim ownership?"

"Even if you were the owner, so what?"

Sun Li sneered. "This world operates on strength. Whoever has the bigger fists keeps the treasure. If you want it, come and take it!"

"Hey! You damn thieves, stealing and still acting high and mighty?"

Yi Feng’s face twisted in anger. "If I don’t smack you all dead today, I’ll change my surname!"

Rolling up his sleeves, he marched toward Sun Li and the others.

"Hmph. An ant trying to shake a tree—know your place."

Sun Li smirked and gestured to Shi Hao and Shi Yuan beside him.

The two shot toward Yi Feng like streaks of light.

But the next moment—

"Smack! Smack!"

Yi Feng raised his hand and casually slapped the two men to the ground, leaving them foaming at the mouth.
