"So this is the cave dwelling left behind by the Radiant Cloud Immortal. Judging from what the two seniors are saying, this person is quite remarkable."
Taking advantage of the last bit of time before entering, Zhang Lingyu wanted to ask the two of them for more information.
Through the intelligence system, he naturally knew who left the cave dwelling, but due to the urgency of the situation, he did not continue to investigate and thus knew nothing about the deeds of this Golden Core cultivator.
"If you wish to hear it, fellow Daoist, we are happy to speak."
Tang Shuofeng and his companion didn't shy away from this. While the Radiant Blazing Clouds True Person was indeed dazzling, that was hundreds of years ago; it was nothing now.
After some discussion, Zhang Lingyu gained a certain understanding of this person's life.
It must be said that being able to compete with the legendary Bai Yan Zhenjun despite being a rogue cultivator is quite an achievement. After all, having a good lineage is one thing, but the main thing is to see who the lineage holder is.
If this person had joined any of the six major sects of Zhao, he would likely be a peak Golden Core cultivator by now. It's a pity... he's ended up like this.
He shook his head slightly, feeling sorry for this senior.
However, everyone has their own destiny when it comes to cultivation. True Person Chixia was able to achieve the Golden Core as a rogue cultivator, which shows his pride. After joining a sect, he may not have achieved the same level of success as he did after training alone.
The three shared a rare moment of resonance, but it dissipated along with the disappearing colorful clouds at the mountaintop.
No matter how brilliant the other person was in life, now they are just withered bones in their home. All they care about is the inheritance and those few magical treasures in the other person's possession!
"Gentlemen, the strange phenomenon has dissipated; it's time to act!"
Tang Shuofeng took the lead, leaving behind these words before heading towards the foot of the mountain.
In the past, it would have been difficult to find the entrance to the cave, but with the sudden appearance of strange phenomena and the breaking of the restrictions, a light sweep of divine sense was enough to find the entrance.
Tang and Shi flew ahead, while Zhang Lingyu followed closely behind them. As a rogue Golden Core cultivator from the East Sea, caution was necessary, both in terms of cultivation level and status.
"Brother Tang, this Zhang fellow is quite cautious." Shi Fangling's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly sneered through telepathy.
"People from that godforsaken place, the East China Sea, how could they not be cautious?"
Tang Shuofeng laughed and said, "Don't worry, I've been keeping my divine sense on him from the very beginning. I can detect any movement immediately and prepare accordingly."
From beginning to end, they never dared to underestimate their opponent. After all, those who could cultivate the Golden Core in the East Sea were all formidable figures with extraordinary skills. Moreover, since they came to Zhao alone, they must have possessed at least two powerful magic weapons. Otherwise, they would not have dared to wade into this mess.
No matter what powerful magic weapon you have, in a two-on-one situation, even a late-stage Golden Core cultivator would find it difficult to escape!
Before long, the three of them stood in front of the entrance.
The entrance barrier had indeed deteriorated due to being unattended for hundreds of years, and with the impact of the previous strange phenomenon, it had been half destroyed.
Tang Shuofeng was overjoyed. With the combined strength of the three of them, this restriction could be broken in the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. However, he was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he looked meaningfully at Zhang Lingyu behind him and said with a smile, "Brother Zhang, we have never been to the East Sea cultivation world, but we have long heard that the cultivators there have mastered advanced techniques. This restriction is already mostly destroyed, so it is not a difficult task for you. Why not show us your skills?"
"Absolutely! Absolutely! We've been eager to see it for a long time!"
After he finished speaking, Shi Fangling, who was standing to the side, smiled and echoed his words.
The two of them knew nothing about Zhang Lingyu. If they could witness even a glimpse of his abilities here, they would have a better plan for the future.
"Fellow Daoists, the three of us can break this restriction in no time if we work together. However, my cultivation is insufficient, and it will probably take me a long time to break it alone. Time is of the essence, and every second we delay here will bring the cultivators outside one step closer to this place. This is really inappropriate."
Zhang Lingyu sneered inwardly. This move was nothing more than a test of his abilities. However, once he used all his skills, he would be suspected immediately. The only thing he could use was those few demonic spells. He simply uttered all the excuses he had prepared in advance.
"Well... what you say makes sense, fellow Daoist. Let's attack together."
Tang Shuofeng was stunned for a moment, but he immediately realized that they did need to race against time, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Dust Condensation Technique!"
"The bright moon shines over the vast sea!"
"The Art of Burning Metal with Fire!"
Under external pressure, the three had no choice but to go all out.
When the dust settled, all the restrictions were broken.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang's fire technique is truly remarkable; we were right about you!"
"You two are too kind. Compared to your methods, my skills are nothing!"
Zhang Lingyu chuckled twice. It was impossible for him not to take action. Fortunately, he had killed a few cultivators from the East Sea in the ruins of the Spirit Puppet Sect and cultivated a few spells, which would come in handy.
Although a method was used, a single spell wouldn't reveal too much.
"Alright, let's hurry inside."
Seeing that the treasure of True Person Chixia was within his grasp, Shi Fangling couldn't help but feel a little impatient and hurriedly urged him on.
Tang Shuofeng nodded in agreement and led the two behind him into the cave.
As soon as they entered, a chilling aura suddenly blew in from the depths, causing even the three Golden Core cultivators to shiver...
Aside from the eerie, cold wind, divine sense revealed that the passage did not lead into the mountainside, but rather underground.
It seems this trip hasn't been entirely smooth sailing...
Tang and Shi's hearts sank. They exchanged a glance and had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue forward.
Hidden within a cave in the depths of Chixia Mountain.
A handsome man dressed in colorful clothes sat on a high seat. According to Tang Shuofeng and the other man's description, this man was none other than the famous Chixia Zhenren from hundreds of years ago!
Although the physical body was intact, the person appeared to have no breath left, as if they had simply perished.
But the moment Zhang Lingyu and the other two entered the cave, the corpse suddenly opened its eyes. Its eyeballs rolled around a few times before it looked toward the entrance.
He parted his lips slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "People are here... one mid-stage Golden Core cultivator and two early-stage cultivators. This appetizer is quite nice."
"Blood One, Blood Two, you two go and meet them first."
As soon as he finished speaking, slow footsteps came from the shadows behind the throne, and soon two meticulously crafted blood puppets swayed out.
Because their faces were covered, nothing could be seen, but judging from the aura emanating from them, both blood puppets were Golden Core cultivators in life.
The two figures first slowly knelt down and bowed, then turned and headed towards their target. Their speed was vastly different from before, comparable to that of a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator.
Master Chixia nodded in satisfaction and was about to close his eyes and wait silently when suddenly another wisp of his divine consciousness followed closely behind.
