NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1312: Sowing Discord!
I don't know how long time had passed.
Zhou Yu suddenly realized that he was gradually able to adapt to the overwhelming pressure.
He immediately began to walk slowly forward.
During his journey, his gaze constantly fell on the stone walls on both sides of the canyon, staring at the marks left by swords, knives, axes, and halberds.
He felt an indescribable sensation, as if these marks were not ordinary.
Zhou Yu curiously came to a place that looked like a notch left by a long knife and reached out to touch it.
The moment he touched it, the scene before his eyes changed.
Before Zhou Yu could react, a vague figure appeared in front of him, wielding a bronze long knife, and slashed towards him.
This was a simple horizontal slash, and it wasn't very fast.
But it made Zhou Yu's whole body shiver with fear.
His heart was filled with infinite terror, and he even forgot to dodge.
Crack!
The blade fiercely struck Zhou Yu's chest, splitting his upper body in two.
Accompanied by intense pain, Zhou Yu couldn't help but let out a miserable scream.
His whole body was severed into two halves, flying away.
After falling to the ground, Zhou Yu, filled with shock, quickly climbed up and looked down, only to find himself completely unharmed.
But the image of being split in two by the blade was vivid in his memory.
Even the details of the blade cutting into his skin and flesh were deeply felt.
At this moment, his clothes were drenched in cold sweat.
"It was... an illusion..."
Zhou Yu finally realized.
"Such a realistic illusion!"
Zhou Yu's eyes were filled with intense shock.
"But that slash just now..."
Suddenly, Zhou Yu's eyes revealed a mysterious light.
He carefully pondered over that slash, involuntarily gesturing with his hand.
Soon, he once again fell into a peculiar realization.
I don't know how long time had passed when Zhou Yu suddenly regained consciousness. He stood up and returned to the edge of the canyon, in front of the knife mark, and reached out to touch it again...
...
Just as Zhou Yu was immersed in cultivation on the Wutong Enlightenment Platform.
At the entrance of the canyon.
A figure suddenly rushed in.
This person appeared to be about forty years old, holding a long sword and storming in angrily.
At this moment, the disciple who had brought Zhou Yu here was guarding outside.
Seeing this person arriving, his face changed, and he immediately stepped forward.
"Rong Linjiang, stop!"
The man called Rong Linjiang looked at the disciple in front of him with an extremely grim expression and said:
"Protector Liu, get out of my way!"
Protector Liu shook his head.
"Rong Linjiang, you're from the Pill God Temple, you should know the rules."
"Without permission from the Hall Master, you cannot enter."
Upon hearing this, Rong Linjiang was furious.
"I am not only a member of the Pill God Temple but also the undisputed number one among the younger generation of the Pill God Temple."
"Why can't I enter the Wutong Enlightenment Platform?"
Facing Rong Linjiang's questioning, Protector Liu said expressionlessly:
"Because someone is currently cultivating inside."
"It's Zhou Yu, isn't it?" Rong Linjiang said angrily.
"You know well enough."
A surge of rage filled Rong Linjiang.
"Why?"
"Why can an outsider enter the most core secret location of my Pill God Temple, while I cannot?"
"That's something you should ask the Hall Master, not me."
"In any case, you cannot enter."
"Don't even think about barging in; you should know the power of the formation here. Don't force me to take action."
Protector Liu said coldly.
"Fine, very well."
Rong Linjiang glared at Protector Liu, then turned around angrily and left.
Seeing Rong Linjiang leave, the tension in Protector Liu also relaxed.
A complex look flashed in his eyes, and he sighed.
Rong Linjiang hadn't gone far from the canyon when he saw a figure appearing in front of him.
That figure slowly turned around, with a faint cold smile on his face.
This person was none other than Jun Feng.
"Jiang Shao, see? I wasn't lying to you."
"An outsider can enter the Wutong Enlightenment Platform, but you, as the number one among the younger generation of the Pill God Temple, are excluded."
"Can you still bear such a thing?"
Jun Feng's words were filled with strong provocation.
And Rong Linjiang was already filled with extreme anger.
He brandished his long sword, and a terrifying Sword Qi immediately destroyed a large area of mountain rocks in the distance.
"This is outrageous!"
Rong Linjiang roared furiously.
Seeing this scene, a cold smile flashed in Jun Feng's eyes.
"You're right; this is truly outrageous."
"Jiang Shao, if you endure this, I'm afraid, in the future, your Rong Family will become a laughingstock at the Pill God Temple."
Rong Linjiang suddenly lifted his head and looked at Jun Feng.
Although filled with hatred, he wasn't blinded by anger.
"If he could take my place, it means the Hall Master approved."
"Since he is the Hall Master's man, what can I do?"
Jun Feng let out a cold laugh.
"This shows that the Hall Master no longer trusts your Rong Family."
"Given the situation, if your Rong Family doesn't find another backer, it won't be long before you lose everything at the Pill God Temple."
"However, if you can gain the Ancestor's trust, you won't have to worry about the Hall Master."
"Ancestor?" Rong Linjiang was taken aback.
"How could I possibly gain the Ancestor's favor?"
Jun Feng chuckled.
"There is a way now."
"I've found someone, or rather, something valuable."
"If you can present her to the Ancestor, he will surely be delighted. Then, a mere Zhou Yu will be easily dealt with."
Upon hearing this, Rong Linjiang immediately asked:
"What way?"
"Zhou Yu has a woman named Lin Luoluo, and she is the legendary Medicine Spirit Saint Body..."
