Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 700: Chapter 701: The Strange Golden Light Vortex! (2 more releases)

After a brief moment of stupefaction, someone finally took to the air and rushed into the interior of the Scripture Pavilion. Although they might not get a large share of the spoils, if they could carry off one or two ancient sects’ secret manuals, that would be splendid too!

”Damn it!”

Murong Wu’s eyes bulged as he forcefully summoned a surge of Elemental Power and soared into the sky. Sadly, having overexerted himself earlier, his Physical Strength had greatly diminished and he could only fall in among the third group of people.

Then came Yaan Jinghong, Nangong Yu, Shen Lang...

One prodigy after another, too exhausted to care, charged into the Scripture Pavilion like madmen.

However, they were unaware that the Ancient Formation’s Barrier enveloping the exterior of the Scripture Pavilion was slowly mending itself.

Ling Feng had indeed breached the Array’s Barrier, but he did not shake the foundation of the Array itself. Without further attacks, the Barrier would gradually restore itself. Given the pace of restoration, they had about an hour to act. Otherwise, once the Barrier closed, they would likely be trapped within the Array and would have to break through the Barrier again to leave.

...

After Ling Feng dashed into the Scripture Pavilion, he was far from polite. With a sweep of his hand, shelves after shelves of books were all sucked into his Spirit Storage Ring; his aim was to completely empty the Scripture Pavilion.

During this process, the occasional book would fall from the shelves. These would serve as a bit of ”broth” for the martial artists following behind; after all, if he was to feast on the meat, he should at least leave something for others. With something to fight over, they wouldn’t incessantly pester him.

These secret manuals, aside from being suitable for his own Cultivation, could also be used to replenish the Lingshen Sect’s archives.

With these inheritance techniques from ancient sects, it would be hard for the Lingshen Sect to not grow powerful!

After several flashes and dashes, Ling Feng had emptied most of the shelves and did not linger any longer. He headed directly towards the left side of the Scripture Pavilion where the treasure that caused the Golden Light Vortex lay, his ultimate goal.

After Ling Feng teleported away, the second group of martial artists finally ”arrived late,” led by Feeng Yan.

In the vast third layer of the Scripture Pavilion, the shelves were almost emptied, with just a scattering of secret manuals on the floor.

”What incredible speed!”

Feeng Yan let out a wry chuckle. Without wasting the secret manuals on the ground, he swept them all up in one motion, clearing the remaining treasures.

As for Yue Yunlan and others, knowing that the secret manuals were taken by Ling Feng, they didn’t compete with Feeng Yan and immediately raced toward the direction of the Golden Light Vortex.

Although there should still be plenty of secret manuals on the first and second layers, they certainly couldn’t compare to the treasures on the third layer, so they simply decided to try their luck on the left side of the Scripture Pavilion.

Almost without pausing, the second batch flew toward the location of the Golden Light Vortex, showing little interest in the secret manuals on the lower layers.

Finally, the last group of martial artists arrived only to see an empty third floor; Feeng Yan had been even more thorough than Ling Feng, sweeping away even those scattered secret manuals from the floor.

”There are still two layers below!”

”Damn it, let’s head downstairs!”

Those martial artists who knew they couldn’t compete with the likes of Feeng Yan settled for the second best, racing down to the lower layers to vie for the secret manuals. After all, the manuals on the second layer would surely be more valuable than those on the first, and rushing there now could give them an advantage.

However, people like Murong Wu, who disdained the ordinary items below, snorted coldly and immediately charged toward the location of the Golden Light Vortex.

At this moment, there were only two ways for them to reap greater benefits.

The first was the secret manuals on the left side, as well as the mystery of the Golden Light Vortex.

The second was to catch up with Ling Feng and pick him clean!

It was a huge disgrace for all those present—such brilliant talents—to have been outperformed and have the lion’s share taken by an unknown upstart!

”Damn you, Ling!”

Yaan Jinghong was shaking with rage. He wouldn’t have had any objections if it was Feeng Yan or Murong Wu who got the lion’s share, but it was absolutely intolerable that it had to be Ling Feng!

”I had intended to leave your measly life for the finals of the Royal Sword Team competition, but now, you must die!”

With a loud roar, Yaan Jinghong’s body shot out like a cannonball, charging toward the location of the Golden Light Vortex.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side.

When Ling Feng nonchalantly made his way from the right side of the Scripture Pavilion to the front of the Golden Light Vortex, he immediately noticed that almost the entire left side of the pavilion had been destroyed.

The three-layered space was completely enveloped by the Golden Light Vortex, and the violent cyclone had long since obliterated everything inside, turning the surrounding bookshelves and secret manuals into debris.

”What in the world has such terrifying power!”

Ling Feng took a deep breath and looked down from above, barely discerning something resembling a Treasure Box at the bottom of the golden light.

”This Golden Light is powerful, but it doesn’t seem to have much offensive capability!”

Ling Feng gritted his teeth and promptly activated his Mountain Crashing Transformation under the Eight Desolate Body Forging Technique, boosting his defense to the limit, and without hesitation, he leapt down from above the Golden Light Vortex.

How could one catch tiger cubs without entering the tiger’s lair?

To acquire the secrets within the Golden Light Vortex, getting close was a must.

However, as Ling Feng was falling, he felt a mysterious force seem to penetrate his mind, and the space around him twisted as if he had directly entered another world.

At the same time, Feeng Yan and others finally arrived.

”Big brother!”

Jiang Xiaofan saw Ling Feng’s figure floating within the Golden Light Vortex, did not even blink, and immediately jumped down to rescue Ling Feng.

Unfortunately, as a streak of golden light entered his mind, he too closed his eyes, seemingly falling into a deep sleep.

”This guy, really rash!” Lee Bufan frowned, looking down at the Golden Light Vortex with a mix of surprise and uncertainty.

”Yee Yi, go down and save him!”

Mu Qianxue bit her silver teeth and released Yee Yi from her embrace, perhaps the golden light would only affect humans.

Sadly, she miscalculated; Yee Yi also fell for it, falling asleep, curling up into a ball, and floating in the vortex, quickly spinning around.

”I’ll do it!”

Tuoba Yan pulled out a Soft Whip from her waist and flung the whip into the Golden Light Vortex, trying to pull the people out. Unfortunately, no sooner had her whip entered the range of the Golden Light Vortex than a terrifying force of suction actually pulled her in instead.

Then, another streak of golden light caused Tuoba Yan to fall into the same state as Ling Feng and the others.

”What exactly is this Golden Light Vortex?”

Feeng Yan squinted his eyes, having witnessed several people falling prey in succession, he naturally did not dare to act rashly and could only stand by and watch.

At this moment, Murong Wu, Yaan Jinghong, and others had also finally arrived.
