Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Wind and Thunder Barrier!

”Oh?” Du Shaoling’s face darkened, he stared coldly at Ling Feng, ”So you’re unwilling to lead the way?”

Abruptly, a terrifying and unparalleled pressure burst forth again. The Cultivation Technique he practiced was called ”Swallowing Sky Creation Technique,” and it had cultivated an extremely overbearing aura. His presence alone could subdue the enemy’s might without fighting, his aura alone lofty and superior, rendering his opponents utterly unable to exert their full strength.

Ling Feng sneered with disdain, his body shook, and the oppressive aura was dissipated in an instant, ”I can lead the way, but, there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world!”

”My God! Am I seeing things?”

Those from the True Dragon Academy couldn’t believe their eyes as they watched Ling Feng. They were well aware of how terrifying the aura formed by Du Shaoling’s Swallowing Sky Creation Technique was; a vice principal from the True Dragon Academy had once said that even a warrior from the Divine Origin Realm would be somewhat affected by Du Shaoling’s aura!

Yet now, this aura that could affect someone from the Divine Origin Realm couldn’t shake Ling Feng in the slightest.

Jun Moxie, Li Yunlong, and Chu Bingyun all twitched at their eyelids. A martial artist who had only opened thirteen meridian points was actually not afraid of Du Shaoling’s aura. This Ling Feng was definitely not simple!

Du Shaoling was also astonishingly surprised in his heart: This kid, he can actually remain completely unaffected by the aura and pressure!

”Hmph!” Du Shaoling withdrew his aura and pulled out a Jade Box from his Space Ring, tossing it at Ling Feng, his voice cold, ”Kid, impressive! Here’s an Upper Grade Elemental Crystal, take it!”

Du Shaoling’s concession to Ling Feng didn’t mean he was afraid of him, but in the face of a great opportunity like the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower, a single Upper Grade Elemental Crystal was not worth fussing over.

Rather than wasting time outside, it would be better to settle scores properly after entering the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower.

Ling Feng caught the Jade Box steadily, the corner of his mouth curving into a slight smile: An Upper Grade Elemental Crystal, worth ten thousand Upper Grade Elemental Stones, was quite a substantial wealth.

”You can come along, the students of the Heavenly Position Academy, I can guide for free. As for the rest...”

Ling Feng rubbed his fingers together, speaking mildly, ”Impress me with your treasures.”

Ye Nanfeng gave Ling Feng a big thumbs up, laughing heartily, ”Ling Feng, that’s a sharp move to loot a burning house! Impressive, impressive!”

Ling Feng’s forehead darkened as he glared at Ye Nanfeng. Was this looting a burning house?

This was clearly ”robbing the rich to help the poor”!

The prodigies from the other three major academies were so frustrated that they wanted to vomit blood, but since even Du Shaoling had handed over an Upper Grade Elemental Crystal, who were they to question?

Each gritted their teeth and took out some refining materials and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures equivalent to an Upper Grade Elemental Crystal, and some even handed over a Sky Alliance Commerce VIP Card loaded with thirty million Crystal Coins directly to Ling Feng.

Of course, what surprised Ling Feng the most was that Chu Bingyun from the Wenyuan Academy actually gifted him a ”Ghost Flower.”

The Ghost Flower was a Heaven and Earth Spirit Flower which contained dark attribute Spiritual Power, something most people couldn’t utilize.

Chu Bingyun offered the Ghost Flower actually hoping to disgust Ling Feng, unfortunately, she didn’t know that Ling Feng was an Alchemy Master; this kind of Heaven and Earth Spirit Flower could exhibit its greatest effect in his hands.

...

Following Ling Feng, the group entered the lake and truly avoided most of the dangers. About half an hour later, they finally found the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower smoothly.

Gazing at the nine-story Sword Tower before them, a fervent light flared in everyone’s eyes.

”The Wind and Thunder Sword Tower, hahaha! This is the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower!”

What was inside?

Opportunity!

It’s strength!

With strength, money, beauties, and power will all come flocking!

Rumor had it that one of the reasons the Yiijian Sect had such a glorious history was due to the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower and another Xuanxiao Sword Tower.

Both of these sword towers had nine levels, and with each level passed, one had the chance to select a treasure from that level’s treasure vault. It could be a Cultivation Technique, Spiritual Medicine, ore, or even a sword.

In short, they were the treasures among treasures.

On the ninth level of these two sword towers lay hidden the secrets to comprehending Sword Intent.

Not only that, but it was rumored that upon passing the ninth level of the sword tower, there was a high probability of obtaining the Yiijian Sect’s Divine Skills inheritance. The Wind and Thunder Sword Tower contained the ”Wind and Thunder Hundred Transformations” Divine Skill, while the Xuanxiao Sword Tower held the ”Sword Breaking Xuanxiao” Divine Skill.

Who would dare to not be tempted by the peerless Divine Skills created by the mighty powerhouses of the Yiijian Sect?

”Alright, I have brought you all to the Sword Tower.”

Ling Feng retreated to the side of Ye Nanfeng and the others, ”Next, we need to figure out how to open this barrier before us.”

The Wind and Thunder Sword Tower was submerged at the bottom of the lake year-round, surrounded by an incredibly sturdy Wind and Thunder Barrier to prevent it from being attacked by the pressure of the water and the demons of the lakebed. Later, even though the Yiijian Sect was destroyed, this barrier still remained.

Du Shaoling, Jun Moxie, and others walked around the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower a few times, occasionally taking out treasures to knock and tap against the pale blue barrier, but it seemed as if they were all at a complete loss.

”Scared of a bird!”

A burly student from True Dragon Academy frowned and shouted, pulling out a crimson Giant Sword and bellowing, ”Fire Dance Radiant Sun!”

Boom!

The Fire-element True Qi was wildly violent and possessed extreme destructive power, as it fiercely bombarded the sword tower’s barrier.

Instantly, a blue halo exploded from the edge of the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower, a terrifying force rapidly spreading out. The energy released by the True Dragon Academy student’s ”Fire Dance Radiant Sun” was like the light of a firefly compared to the Sun and Moon—how could it possibly compete?

In a flash, the student took the brunt of the force, with no place to hide, and was directly pierced through by the light ring, his body instantly disintegrated, leaving not even residue behind.

”This madman!”

Everyone cursed loudly, their figures swiftly retreating to avoid even the slightest contact with the terrifying blue light ring.

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched violently; this fearsome power was even more terrifying than the time a Half-step Emperor from the Sky Alliance Commerce had struck out in anger!

Retreat!

Retreat!

Retreat!

Everyone fled for their lives, the blue light ring looked splendid and beautiful, yet it was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper—touch it, and you’d die.

The halo spread out for several thousand meters before finally contracting back, also affecting several unsuspecting Fifth-rank Demon Beasts in the process.

These sizable demon beasts didn’t even know what was happening and had no time to react before they were swept by the blue light, instantly reduced to ash.

Only when the halo completely retracted did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, their hearts still in their throats. That outbreak from the Wind and Thunder Barrier had, apart from the ”instigator” who died on the spot, also resulted in the deaths of five others who weren’t fast enough or whose Vigorous Aura Shields were shattered by the blue light, allowing the Resentful Spirit Aura from the lake water to invade their bodies and explode them to death.

Standing before the Wind and Thunder Sword Tower once again, everyone’s hearts were exceedingly heavy: Could it be that they would leave this mountain of treasures empty-handed?
