My Master Knows It All

1362: Chapter 328_3 1362: Chapter 328_3 It’s the force of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man at work!

Cao Zhen gathered mana throughout his body and likewise slashed forward.

Instantly, towering mountains appeared before him, with steles rising skyward atop them, standing as barriers before him.

One force after another crashed down, striking the steles, but dissipated instantly.

At almost the exact same moment, golden thunderbolts in the void rained down, exuding an undeniable divine majesty, and slammed heavily onto the opponent’s crown.

A deafening explosion reverberated across the area, and in an instant, the mountains in this cemetery began to tremble madly.

The Earth Immortal Realm cultivator with white hair was blasted apart entirely, his body exploding with blood and flesh flying everywhere!

“Indeed, someone in the Earth Immortal Realm finds it difficult to strike effectively, and moreover, the opponent’s aura has obviously weakened—it’s clear they’ve suffered under the influence of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.”

Cao Zhen didn’t dwell on it further and rushed toward the underground tomb.

Earlier, he had excavated the living grave of Old Man Wu Shuang and even dismantled the formations around it to take them away.

But this time, he couldn’t afford to waste time dismantling formations here.

With over a thousand living graves present, every moment spent was an opportunity for someone to seize another treasure.

He didn’t even have time to examine what was hidden within the living graves.

Taking out his Qiankun Bag, he waved his hand from a distance, directly collecting all the treasures within into the bag.

Though he didn’t inspect them closely, as he stored them, he could sense that some of these were treasures of considerable power.

After gathering the treasures, he swiftly flew toward the surface.

When he first entered the living graves, there was no one else present.

But as soon as he emerged from within, a loud boom rang out—not far away, another living grave was shattered open.

A figure flew out from that grave, weaker even than the white-haired Earth Immortal from earlier.

This individual didn’t even have time to act before the golden Force of Heaven’s Punishment in the sky descended, reducing them to dust.

Cao Zhen’s gaze focused on the figures not far away.

How coincidental—it was disciples of the Yao Soil Sect, with whom he’d clashed before.

The Yao Soil Sect, specializing in Invisible Earth techniques, coming to excavate living graves—it wasn’t surprising.

Huang Zi’ang, having noticed commotion from afar, flew over and saw that a living grave had already been opened.

Yet he couldn’t tell who had entered it.

Unexpectedly, it was Cao Zhen!

He hesitated briefly, glanced elsewhere, and muttered quietly, “Keep digging the living graves!”

They had indeed had minor conflicts with Cao Zhen and Xiang Ziyu before, but right now, the treasures within these living graves were paramount.

There was no necessity in escalating matters with Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen ignored Huang Zi’ang, pinpointing another living grave.

Just as he gathered mana to blast it apart, another sound of movement in the distance caught his attention.

Soon, figures began appearing—disciples from other Great Teachings.

Moreover, representatives from two rival sects had come, and more silhouettes were flying in from far away.

Cao Zhen realized he’d underestimated the allure of the living graves.

If he could surmise that these graves contained treasures, others surely could too.

While competition over the Heaven Prayers Sect’s Hidden Treasure House was fierce, this location—with its abundance of living graves—was comparatively less contested.

Some Great Teachings, failing to secure resources from treasure vaults, opted to head here instead.

“Quick, open the living graves!”

“Break into the graves!”

Disciples from the two approaching Great Teachings glanced at Cao Zhen but understood that time was of the essence.

Every moment delayed invited more competitors; they chose not to attack him or engage in conflict, instead focusing their efforts on blasting open a grave.

Cao Zhen, too, understood he couldn’t repel them and focused on a different grave, beginning his barrage.

The cemetery was soon filled with endless explosions, one after another, as cultivators continuously arrived, each directing their efforts toward the living graves.

Everyone knew that conflicts at this moment were futile—it was wisest simply to seize as many graves as quickly as possible.

Though Cao Zhen had arrived first, he was alone, whereas the others came in groups representing entire sects.

While he could open one grave at a time, others could simultaneously open several.

Even with the abundance of living graves, by the time he’d managed to excavate three, he was surprised to find that most of the outer graves had already been emptied.

“Boom!” A muffled roar echoed from afar.

Another grave was opened, releasing a terrifying surge of Demonic Qi—denser than from any of the graves excavated earlier.

Along with this, an overwhelming force erupted as a figure flew out, exuding horrifying pressure.

“Immortality Regainment Realm!”

“It’s an Immortality Regainment Stage grave!”

“Did they discover an Immortality Regainment Realm grave so soon?”

Everyone nearby turned to stare at the figure emerging from the grave, as well as the one who had opened it.

Even Cao Zhen cast his gaze toward them.

The cultivator from the Limitless Sect—Chang Yuanwu?

He had come for these graves too?

Cao Zhen showed a hint of surprise.

The Limitless Sect had significant strength, and Chang Yuanwu was at the pinnacle of the Golden Core Stage—they should be vying for the treasures in the Heaven Prayers Sect’s Hidden Treasure House.

Why had they come here?

No, wait—it seemed Chang Yuanwu was alone here.

Other Limitless Sect members weren’t present at this spot.
