“You noticed?” Feng Chenzong asked, surprised.
“I guessed it,” Lei Xinfeng said, smiling.
Amusement welled up in Feng Chenzong. “Smart, aren’t you? Indeed, the information was leaked by me because… I couldn’t wait anymore. I had to risk it.”
“And you succeeded!”
That flattery hit the bull’s eye and Feng Chenzong’s eyes shone in happiness. “Yeah, I succeeded. Haha, I didn’t think that it’ll happen so quickly.”
“Soon, Monarchs will start appearing. As soon as it’s confirmed that this place produces sky crystals, Ninth Ring Sages have no more business here,” Lei Xinfeng said.
Everyone’s expressions grew ugly. “Why?” Xin Zhaolun asked.
“Easy. Monarchs do not wish to see other Monarchs appearing. They’d rather seal this place off. Even if sky crystals are found, it will be by them.”
Once a Ninth Ring Sage ascends to Monarch, they can become independent and will compete for resources from their original sect. Maybe others did not realize this, but Lei Xinfeng could see the situation clearly.
This was related to his experiences in his previous life. All the resources were controlled by the government or the rich and powerful. Normal people had no chance to obtain anything. This point was obvious to everyone in that world.
Xin Zhaolun grimaced. “It can’t be… if it’s like that, then I must obtain a sky crystal this time, or… there will be no more chances!”
Lei Xinfeng nodded. “That’s right. However, there are a few prerequisites. Someone must successfully shatter a stone egg containing a sky crystal, and you must be nearby. You must also be fast, as fast as Senior Brother. You must quickly store everything in the area that the sky crystal was found in your Hidden Lun space. Brother, can you do it?”
Xin Zhaolun deflated. “Senior Brother, as expected, you’re powerful.”
“It’s all luck, luck, maybe because of Ah Feng,” Feng Chenzong said, smiling. “All my plans came to fruition, haha!” He’s almost mad from happiness. After so many years, he’d finally succeeded. This kind of joy was normal.
Xin Zhaolun nodded. “Maybe the luck is really rubbing off. Every time we go out with Ah Feng, something good happens. Sadly, my luck wasn’t as good this time.”
Continuous rumbles came from the far distance.
“Of these people, those that survive will definitely be in the minority, unless their home sect helps out. This place is too evil,” Lei Xinfeng commented.
“Back in the old, this place was famous. Even the nickname Slaughter Fields was given back then,” Feng Chenzong said.
At first, they called this place the Great Stone Fields or the Slaughter Fields. No one would’ve thought that the nickname Slaughter Fields was one passed down from ancient times. It was probably like this back then, with countless powerful people killing amongst themselves in his place.
Xin Zhaolun was a bit uneasy. Sky crystals were too important. As long as he obtained it, ascension wouldn’t be too difficult. This kind of attraction was something he couldn’t ignore.
“After Master comes, see if he has any ideas,” Feng Chenzong said.
Hearing that, Xin Zhaolun calmed down. Maybe Master really had a better idea.
However, Lei Xinfeng understood that Feng Chenzong was stalling and was unwilling to go back into the heart of the Great Stone Fields. It was too dangerous. Under the current circumstances where he had already obtained the sky crystal, he couldn’t be too careful. No matter how good his relationship with Xin Zhaolun was, he couldn’t take the risk for his sake.
“What if Master isn’t willing to help? Then what?”
Feng Chenzong’s face reddened. He had no idea how to answer Xin Zhaolun.
Lei Xinfeng knew that Xin Zhaolun was currently a keg of volatile gunpowder. Since this place is so strange, any negative emotions will be magnified continuously. If not handled right, Feng Chenzong and Xin Zhaolun might clash, which isn’t something he wanted to see.
“Actually, it’s okay even if we don’t find any more this time,” Lei Xinfeng began.
“What do you mean?” Xin Zhaolun asked, unsatisfied.
Jin Daya prodded Lei Xinfeng, reminding him to not say too much.
Lei Xinfeng paused, then said, “Third Senior Brother, you should understand one thing. What does it mean now that Eldest Senior Brother obtained his sky crystal?”
“Of course I know.”
With the sky crystal, Feng Chenzong will definitely successfully ascend and attain all the might of a Monarch.
“Then it’s easy, haha,” Lei Xinfeng said.
Xin Zhaolun had no idea what he was talking about. He couldn’t wrap his mind around it.
Feng Chenzong was no better off. “What is easy?”
“A Ninth Ring Sage might not be able to find a sky crystal, but what about a Monarch? With the help of a Monarch, does Third Senior Brother still need to worry about not being able to obtain a sky crystal?”
In that instant, Feng Chenzong and Xin Zhaolun both realized what he meant. If Feng Chenzong successfully ascends, then it will be advantageous to both Xin Zhaolun and Lei Xinfeng. It was a debt of favor that couldn’t be put aside easily.
As they say, ‘whatever debt you may have, do not owe a debt of favor, for such a debt is the hardest to pay off.’
Feng Chenzong looked at Lei Xinfeng gratefully. “Don’t worry, Junior Brother. As long as I ascend, I will definitely help you find a sky crystal!”
The seed of dissent in Xin Zhaolun’s heart vanished. “Then I’ll thank you in advance,” he said, smiling. The unseen threat was neutralized by Lei Xinfeng.
Feng Chenzong then said, “Ah Feng, this debt… I’ll accept it. If in the future there is something you can’t do, come find me. I’ll solve the problem for you.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother. Then, if you ascend and I want to use the Hidden Gate…”
“No problem!” Feng Chenzong said.
The exchange was made quickly. To a practitioner, a promise is extremely important., especially among those that are close. That Lei Xinfeng and Xin Zhaolun are both smiling is truly the best outcome.
“Wait, something’s wrong. It’s getting quieter!” Jin Daya said suddenly.
Everyone tilted their heads and listened. Though there was originally a continuous rumble of battles, it was now quieter, with only the occasional explosion. Then there was dead silence.
“What happened?” Feng Chenzong asked, scrunching his eyebrows.
“Did a Monarch come?” Xin Zhaolun guessed.
Lei Xinfeng considered the possibility, then shook his head. “Not a Monarch. A Monarch shouldn’t be that kind of a threat. Those people are already drunk on their killing, so they shouldn’t stop just because of such an obstacle. In addition, a Monarch’s strength is suppressed here, so they can’t control such a large scenario. In my opinion, it’s impossible unless some eight or ten Monarchs came at once.”
Feng Chenzong agreed. “It’s probably not a Monarch. Strange. What kind of thing will frighten so many practitioners?”
Boom! Clatter…
The earth beneath them shuddered, and the stone eggs on the ground jumped.
“What is it?” Lei Xinfeng asked as they looked at each other.
Boom!
Another shudder and the ground jumped again.
Everyone began to get nervous because the entire ground was shaking. This feeling wasn’t good. Even if a Monarch attacked, it was impossible to shake the surface of the earth.
Lei Xinfeng couldn’t control his curiosity. “Let’s go and see?”
Feng Chenzong thought about it, then said, “No, we can’t go. We can only wait. It’s safer here; it’s easier to escape this world.”
Lei Xinfeng grimaced, but he didn’t persist.
“How much more time before Master comes?” Xin Zhaolun asked.
“I’ve already sent the locating signal. Master probably received it already. However, it takes time to activate the Hidden Gate.”
“Is the location here?” Lei Xinfeng asked, curious.
“More specifically, it’s where I’m standing. I need to stay here for a sufficient amount of time before the Hidden Gate opens in the surrounding area within a hundred meters. You don’t understand yet, but you can learn after you ascend to Ninth Ring Sage.”
Boom! Boom…
The quaking reached them and the earth trembled. Everyone flew up, hovering a meter above ground.
The stone eggs acted like they were on top of a vibrating membrane, jumping nonstop.
“Something’s not right. We have to retreat!”
“But the time to pinpoint our location… nevermind, let’s go!” Xin Zhaolun said. He also realized that something was wrong. The stone eggs are jumping madly, and the whole picture was quite terrifying. They had no idea what was causing it.
The twelve people flew away from the source of the disturbance, each as fast as they could. Lei Xinfeng took out his Lightning Stamp and embedded himself in lightning, his speed no slower than the others.
Feng Chenzong stared. “Impressive! Ah Feng’s speed is unbelievable. He’s even faster than me!”
Lei Xinfeng discovered that his Lightning Stamp was really different from the others. When using it, his speed was comparable to a bolt of lightning, covering a huge distance in an instant.
Boom! Boom! Boom…
Countless rumbling noises followed them and the stone eggs jumped ever higher, emitting a clattering sound.
Woooooo…
A strange cry came from the distance. Feng Chenzong’s expression changed. Among the group, he has seen the most things. He could identify the creature after hearing just the sound. “Quick, quick! We must leave this place!”
Wooooo…aaoooooo……
“What is making that sound? It’s frightening!” Lei Xinfeng asked.
“Fuck, we’re screwed. That’s a star beast!” Feng Chenzong cursed. “This place… fuck, why is there a star beast… just run!”
Lei Xinfeng heard the panic in Feng Chenzong’s voice. To be able to make Feng Chenzong so nervous, this star beast definitely wasn’t simple.
When everyone heard the two words ‘star beast,’ their expressions changed. Even if they’ve never seen one, they’ve all heard stories about the terrors of the star beasts. For those Ninth Ring Sages or weaker, meeting a star beast was the equivalent of death!
Remember when Grandpa Lei claimed that something like ten thousand Milun Masters combined could threaten a baby star beast? Yeeeaaah.
Also, it’s finally getting good again! Sort of.
