Chapter 41: The Woman Imprisoned Beneath the Divine Hall
Lin Feng looked at the elder, but felt a very strange sensation in his heart, a feeling that he shouldn't trust the elder's words.
This was an intuition; the elder made Lin Feng feel uneasy.
"Boom boom boom...".
The grand hall shook again, even more intensely than before.
The elder said, "The demonic nature is hard to extinguish. Even after billions of years, it's still the same. The demon here is extremely terrifying. Fortunately, his life is about to end."
"What kind of demon is this?" Lin Feng asked.
"A demon that cannot be mentioned," the elder said with deep meaning.
Lin Feng asked, "Senior, could you let us leave?"
"Go ahead, just wait a while, and you can escape."
The elder opened the stone gate, surprising Lin Feng, who hadn't expected the elder to let him leave so readily.
This was different from Lin Feng's expectations.
Could it be that he misunderstood the elder?
Actually, is he a good person?
But Lin Feng felt the idea of the elder being a good person was not reliable.
...
He and Liuu Piaomiao returned to the first layer palace.
Liuu Piaomiao wanted to say something, but Lin Feng shook his head, indicating that she shouldn't say anything now.
Every movement in this place was surely unable to evade the elder's notice.
They were waiting for the departure opportunity the elder mentioned, but where was this opportunity?
The next day.
A powerful presence arrived from the outside, a terrifying aura filled the heavens and earth, even within the hall, Lin Feng and Liuu Piaomiao could feel it.
"Amitabha Buddha, well said, well said...". A dozen monks arrived, bathed in Buddha's light, sacred and inviolable.
These were Buddhist high monks from the Western Region Buddha Country.
"Wuliang Taoist."
Several Taoists with horsetail whisks arrived, with an immortal aura.
They were Taoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain, leaders of Taoism in the world.
If Wuliang Taoist were here to see these Taoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain, he would probably gnash his teeth with hatred.
The "Banshan Taoist lineage" was expelled from "Taoism" due to an imperial decree from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
The Banshan Taoist lineage was now nearly extinct, naturally having a significant relation with Dragon Tiger Mountain.
"Monks and Taoists all came, quite unusual."
A voice from a powerful being sounded coldly, echoing within endless divine light; it was a powerful being from the Longevity Hall.
An endless demon cloud covered the sky, the Demon Cult Emperor arrived.
The evil cloud shrouded, this was a powerful being from the Evil Path.
...
Many top-level forces have powerful beings arriving, seeking the outer space meteorite.
"The news was indeed correct, there's an outer space meteorite here."
Many people exclaimed.
These top-level powerful beings were also moved.
The outer space meteorite had great significance.
Divine skills from the ancient era, any one of them could shape a massive force.
And the Daoist lineage that appears now is likely to be the Fighting Saint Ape's lineage, which is incomparable to other ancient Daoist lineages.
Fighting Saint Ape, what an earth-shattering, ghost-weeping being?
All Heavens and Myriads of Realms? Who can rival him?
"Action...".
These powerful beings launched an attack, wanting to snatch the outer space meteorite.
Meanwhile, these Golden Giants regarded the outer space meteorite as a divine object and were unwilling to let these cultivators take it.
Golden Giants and forces from Buddhism, Demon Clan, Evil, Demon Cult, and Taoism fought together.
Vast forests were destroyed, almost like the end of the world, this level of battle far exceeded Lin Feng's imagination.
"That old fellow said our escape opportunity would soon arrive, then numerous powerful beings showed up; could that old fellow foresee the future? That's too terrifying, isn't it?"
Lin Feng muttered, filled with deep shock in his heart, yet also worried because he always felt that the old thing harbored ill intentions towards him.
"Boom...". At this moment, an extremely terrifying aura came from afar, and Lin Feng then saw a white peacock flying over.
That white peacock transformed into a teenager of sixteen or seventeen.
That teenager had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and dashing, with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
His smile carried a lot of charm, he was like a distinguished young man from a troubled world.
"Who is this?" Lin Feng was surprised.
The white-clothed young man stepped forward, heading towards the outer space meteorite.
"Peacock Saint Master, it's you...".
Many powerful beings changed their expressions drastically upon seeing this person.
"I'm taking this meteorite, go find others elsewhere."
The youth transformed from the white peacock spoke.
"Peacock Saint Master? One of the Supreme leaders of the Demon Clan, the Peacock Saint Master?"
Lin Feng was astonished.
This was definitely a fierce figure, he had heard that the Peacock Saint Master was the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan's Peacock Clan.
Peacock Clan? What kind of race is that?
In the ancient era, the Buddha was swallowed by a peacock in one bite.
The Buddha dug out of the peacock's spine intending to kill it.
But the Buddhas said since the Buddha emerged from the peacock's body, it should be revered as Buddha Mother.
Thus, the Buddha sealed the peacock as the Peacock Great Ming King Bodhisattva.
…
This shows such an astonishing origin of the Peacock Clan.
Now the Peacock Saint Master has arrived, truly domineering without bounds.
"Such a strong Peacock Saint Master, alone facing so many powerful beings, so composed, looking down on many powerful beings, but how strong is he? If so many powerful beings besieged him, could he still handle it?"
Lin Feng mumbled.
"Let's take him down together."
Indeed, those powerful beings chose to join forces to attack the Peacock Saint Master.
Peacock Saint Master strode forward, swung his right fist, sweeping out a punch, immediately sending over a dozen powerful beings flying.
Those were Eternal Giant-level powerful beings, yet they couldn't withstand Peacock Saint Master's attack. With three consecutive punches, the Peacock Saint Master swept away all powerhouses, reached the outer space meteorite, and reached out to grab it.
The Golden Giant King roared, swinging a massive stone hammer towards the Peacock Saint Master, who let out a long shriek, roaring through the mountains and rivers, even flinging the Golden Giant King away.
He seized the outer space meteorite and flew to the distance, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Chase..."
These Eternal Giants couldn't be willing, angrily roaring as they quickly pursued.
"How terrifying is this?"
Lin Feng was shaken, the strength of the Peacock Saint Master made him feel like facing a divine mansion.
"Let's go," said Liuu Piaomiao.
Lin Feng nodded, without hesitation, quickly rushing out with Liuu Piaomiao.
The recent battle had all the Golden Giants involved, including the one originally guarding the stone hall, thus giving Lin Feng and Liuu Piaomiao the opportunity to leave. They rushed into the forest, without stopping, quickly flying towards the outer regions.
Inside the third layer palace, the "Divine Servant" squinted, seemingly seeing through the palace and into the forest where Lin Feng was, he muttered to himself, "Having that race's bloodline, truly a perfect and flawless body, but not strong enough yet, need to wait before taking action...".
Ha ha ha ha.
Then the elder let out an eerie ghost-like laugh.
Rumble! Rumble!
The grand hall shook violently.
"Open."
The elder gave a loud shout, the grand hall cracked open, he flew into the depths of the cracked hall.
Beneath the grand hall, the sound of chains clinking emerged.
In the darkness, one could vaguely see a female captive whose limbs and collarbone were bound by chains.
The woman screamed when she saw the elder descending, wanting to charge at him.
But she couldn't struggle free from the chains.
"I owe my current half-human, half-ghost state entirely to you, your future life will become increasingly miserable, showing you what is worse than death."
The elder's sinister gaze fell upon the woman with disheveled hair, whose appearance was indiscernible.
Very soon.
Within Luoshen Hall.
The deathlike silence was restored.
