Old Six Qin Feng

"Changkong Divine Sword's successor? The First Sword a hundred years from now!?"

Dozens of cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm couldn't help scoffing. They felt Lin San's reputation was wildly exaggerated.

If Heavenly Heart City weren't backing him, they'd strip him until he didn't have a pair of underpants left.

"Everyone, if we want the treasures, we'll have to join forces to break this barrier!"

Someone proposed that they work together to break the barrier, then compete for the jade box inside according to their own abilities.

"Agreed!" ??

"Agreed!" ??

"..."

The other cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm nodded in agreement. They all knew perfectly well that if they didn't join forces to break the barrier soon, they'd have no say once stronger experts arrived.

"Do it!!"

Someone led the way, forming a Finger Seal. Violent energy immediately poured out of his body.

Seeing someone take the lead, the others attacked as well.

In an instant, countless streams of energy fell from the sky like meteors, making the void shudder violently as ripples spread in wave after wave.

Rumble!!

Everyone's attacks struck the barrier without fail, unleashing a deafening roar.

But unlike the shattering scene they'd imagined, the barrier absorbed all the energy, its surface blooming into a dazzling array of colors.

"Not good!!"

Everyone stared in horror, sensing the energy gathering and swelling.

Daring not hesitate for a moment, they hurriedly assumed defensive stances.

Rumble!!

Another earth-shaking roar rang through heaven and earth. All the energy gathered within the barrier burst out, accompanied by a terrifying Energy Storm that swept across the entire Ruins.

Everything in its path was left in ruins.

The spectators at the front bore the brunt of it. Those with strong cultivation managed to hang on with barely half their lives left; those with weak cultivation were killed on the spot.

"That scared me to death!"

Zi Yuan's heart pounded with fright as she clung tightly to Qin Feng's hand.

If Qin Feng hadn't pulled her behind the others just now, her small frame would never have withstood such a violent assault.

"I knew that bastard was up to no good!"

Qin Feng couldn't help turning to look at Lin San. He saw the corners of Lin San's mouth lift in smug satisfaction.

"Damn it, damn it..."

Dozens of cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm shouted furiously in the sky. They hadn't expected the barrier to reflect damage, too. To force it open, they'd have to unleash enough energy to reach its limit.

Clearly, they weren't up to it!

Just then—

Jagged cracks suddenly split open around the barrier, spreading farther and farther. Web-like fissures appeared in the void as well.

Clearly, this was a trial left behind by the Ruins' owner. If no one could break the barrier through their own skill and they relied on brute force, it would trigger the Ruins' self-destruct mechanism.

His treasures could only be passed on to a genius, not an incompetent!

"Not good, the Ruins are collapsing!"

Everyone stared in horror and hurried to flee.

"Damn it!!"

The dozens of experts in the Entering Dao Realm were so furious they nearly burst a blood vessel. It felt like they'd gotten none of the mutton but still ended up smelling like it.

But it was too late to do anything now. If they didn't want to die, they had to get out of there fast.

"What are you standing around for? We have to go!"

Zi Yuan hurriedly tugged Qin Feng along, but he showed no intention of leaving. His eyes were fixed intently on Lin San.

"Qin Feng!"

Lin San was surprised to see Qin Feng here. He couldn't help suspecting that Qin Feng was the Old Six sabotaging him from behind the scenes.

But

he had no time to prove it now. He had to open the barrier and get the jade box at once.

Lin San quickly formed a Finger Seal and jabbed hard at the corner of the barrier.

Rumble!!

The barrier shattered like glass in an instant, a beam of light shooting skyward as a divine aura swept across the entire Ruins. ??

"The barrier's open!!"

The cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm, who'd been about to leave, immediately turned around and rushed toward the jade box on the stone platform.

But they were clearly too far away. Lin San smirked, grabbed the jade box, and pulled out a yellow talisman covered in runes.

"Spatial Teleportation Talisman!!"

The dozens of cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm cried out in alarm and unleashed their strongest attacks to stop him.

But they were still too far away. Lin San had already activated the Spatial Teleportation Talisman. Runes swirled around his body as he smugly waved goodbye to them.

"Now!"

Qin Feng kept his eyes fixed on the jade box and reached out, using his ability to grab things from a distance.

He didn't take the jade box from Lin San's hand. Instead, he snatched the treasure inside it and tossed it straight into his Personal Space without even checking what it was.

"Ding-dong! Congratulations, host, on completing the villain mission. You have received one Golden Chest."

"Ding-dong! Congratulations, host, on ruining the Son of Heaven's opportunity. You have received one Lucky Draw Opportunity!"

"Ding-dong! Congratulations, host, on snatching the Son of Heaven's treasure. You have received one million Villain Points!"

"One million Villain Points!!"

Qin Feng's heart skipped a beat. He could only imagine how incredible this treasure must be. Just the reward alone was worth a million Villain Points; if he redeemed it from the system, wouldn't it cost tens of millions?

Rumble!!

The attacks from the cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm finally arrived, but they hit nothing. Lin San had already used the Spatial Teleportation Talisman to escape.

"The Spatial Teleportation Talisman can't take him far. After him!!"

Dozens of cultivators in the Entering Dao Realm shouted furiously. They couldn't believe so many of them had been played by a kid.

"We should get out of here, too!"

After securing the treasure, Qin Feng didn't linger. He hurriedly pulled Zi Yuan toward the exit. The ground around them kept collapsing, revealing a pitch-black void; anyone who fell in would be shredded by the power of space.

"Help!!"

The whole Ruins echoed with people crying out for their fathers and mothers. Countless people were swallowed up before they could escape.

"He was right again. This really is a land of great peril!"

Zi Yuan swallowed nervously, recalling all the tests of human nature she'd seen along the way.

Some people used their companions as stepping stones just to survive; others wanted their friends and family to die with them. And when disaster struck, even married couples flew off in opposite directions...

Rumble!!

Just as Qin Feng and Zi Yuan were about to reach the exit, the ground beneath them suddenly collapsed. They both lost their balance and fell.

"Ah..."

Zi Yuan screamed at once, hiding in Qin Feng's arms with her eyes squeezed shut.

"Damn it!!"

Qin Feng couldn't help swearing. He pushed Phantom Shadow Free and Unfettered to its limit, scrambling upward across the falling rocks.

Unfortunately, everything around them was collapsing. He had nowhere left to escape.

"It'd be such a waste not to use a scene like this to flirt!"

Qin Feng threw Zi Yuan in his arms toward the exit with all his strength. Then, smiling, he let himself fall, ready to log in to the max-level Red-haired Old Monster at any moment and save himself.

"Qin Feng..."

Zi Yuan cried out in anguish, reaching for Qin Feng as he fell. But the distance between them kept growing, and an unfamiliar feeling stirred in her heart toward this little brat.

Whoosh!

A white figure suddenly rushed into the Ruins and sped after the falling Qin Feng...
