Wave after wave of horror crossed Wan Shenfeng's face.
A trace of admiration even stirred in his heart.
This Li Yun was far too bold.
He had actually set his sights on the Heavenly Scripture of Myriad Wonders. Did he have no fear of death?!
The Illusory World Tower might now have been turned into a terrifying cage that even a Peak Sage Constant could enter but never leave, yet that did not mean it was the dangerous place to be.
In truth, he knew perfectly well that Li Yun's decision to target the Heavenly Scripture of Myriad Wonders was the real danger, at least an order of magnitude greater than the Illusory World Tower.
The reason was simple.
The Heavenly Scripture of Myriad Wonders was far too famous.
It was the foremost of the Primordial Land's Four Great Wonder Books. Countless Sage Constants had braved extraordinary dangers to fight over it. That only quieted down after the Heavenly Scripture of Myriad Wonders fell into Cang Jiulong's hands, and the other Sage Constants were cowed by his strength—he had fought three Peak Sage Constants at once and gravely wounded all three.
Cang Jiulong had also promptly proposed using the Four Great Wonder Books as a foundation to explore the mysteries of the Ancestral Realm together.
Only then had things settled down a little.
Even so, no one knew how many powerful figures in Ancestral City were watching Cang Jiulong and the Heavenly Scripture of Myriad Wonders, openly or from the shadows.
By comparison, the Illusory World Tower barely counted.
If seizing the Illusory World Book and seizing the Heavenly Scripture of Myriad Wonders were two challenges of different difficulty levels,
the latter was Abyss-level, while the former was, at most, ordinary.
The gulf between them was enormous.
For Li Yun
