Loran's Divine Essence subtly flowed through her fingertips, reinforcing the concealment barrier to its maximum. Outside the crevice, Mo Chen's divine sense, like a fine spiderweb, swept repeatedly through the cave. Each time it passed the edge of the crevice, Loran felt a bone-chilling pressure. Lei Lin's body was tense, its golden pupils fixed on the three people at the cave entrance. The lightning on its horn almost broke free of its restraints. If Loran hadn't held its neck, it would have already rushed out to attack.
"Your concealment techniques are indeed exquisite." Mo Chen's voice carried a hint of amusement as his withered hand gently stroked the runes on the rock wall. "To be able to hide so deeply beneath my divine sense, your strength must be considerable. Why not show yourself? The Spirit Marrow Spring is an ancient treasure; sharing it is better than keeping it all to yourself. Perhaps we can achieve a win-win situation."
Qin Feng sneered, his black battle blade trembling slightly Law of Wind condensed into tiny vortexes on the blade. "Why waste words with him, Elder? Daring to meddle with the Spirit Marrow Spring deep within the Magical Beast Forest, he must be an ignorant fool. Let me cleave open this cave and see how long he can hide!"
With that, Qin Feng leaped into the air, his battle blade whistling through the wind as he slashed towards the open space in the center of the cave. The azure wind blade tore through the air, and the moment it struck the ground, it sent up a shower of rubble, creating a deep trench several feet deep that stretched out towards the crevice where Loran was hiding.
Loran's eyes sharpened, and he no longer concealed his intentions. He abruptly released Lei Lin, his golden Divine Essence surging, and the pressure of God King spread out like a tidal wave, instantly dissipating the remaining power of Qin Feng's wind blade. "A cowardly rat hiding its head and tail, dares to talk about sharing?"
A golden figure appeared in the center of the cave as if by teleportation. Loran held a longsword imbued with the power of rules, his cold gaze sweeping over the three. Lei Lin followed closely behind, his body swelling to two meters tall, purple-gold lightning crackling around him, intertwining with Loran's God King aura, causing Mo Chen and the other two to involuntarily take a half step back.
" God King Realm!" Mo Chen's pupils shrank, and the greed on his face was instantly replaced by shock. "You've actually broken through to the God King? When did such a young God King appear in the Vast Wilderness Realm?"
Su Mei and Qin Feng behind him also changed their expressions drastically. The God King Realm is already the top combat power in the Vast Wilderness Realm. In the entire Azure Mist Sect, only the sect leader has reached the Early-stage God King. This young man in front of them looks to be only in his twenties, yet he already possesses such strength. How could they not be shocked?
Ignoring their shock, Loran said indifferently, "As the inheritor of the ancient seal, the Azure Mist Sect doesn't fulfill its duties properly, but instead covets the power of the Spirit Marrow Spring. Aren't you afraid of angering the remaining power of the Ancient God Clan?"
"Inherited power?" Mo Chen scoffed, his face turning sinister. " The Ancient God Clan have long since perished. Their so-called duty of protection is nothing but self-deception. This Vast Wilderness Realm is ruled by the strong! The energy of the Spirit Marrow Spring is enough for me to break through to the Middle God King Stage. If you know what's good for you, hand over the spring to me; otherwise, today will be your burial ground!"
Before she could finish speaking, Su Mei suddenly launched her attack. Her figure floated to Loran's side like a ghost, and the eerie green short blade in her hand, infused with deadly poison, silently stabbed towards Loran's lower back. The short blade was covered with strange poisonous attributes, and wherever it passed, the air was tinged with a thin layer of green mist, emitting a pungent odor.
Loran was prepared. He dodged the short blade while simultaneously slashing out with his longsword. The golden sword energy, imbued with the Law of Vitality, instantly tore through the green mist, heading straight for Su Mei's face. Su Mei's expression changed drastically. She hurriedly retreated, but the sword energy still grazed her shoulder. Her green armor was instantly torn apart, revealing a deep wound that exposed bone. The flesh at the wound was rapidly rotting.
"What domineering life force!" Su Mei was shocked and furious. She hurriedly circulated her Divine Essence to suppress the decay of her wounds, her eyes filled with apprehension. She hadn't expected that Loran's Law of Vitality could not only heal but also transform into an extremely corrosive attack.
Seeing this, Qin Feng immediately swung his sword forward, activating the Law of Wind to its limit. Countless azure wind blades shot towards Loran, attempting to rescue Su Mei. Lei Lin roared, his body surging with lightning, and a purple-gold lightning barrier instantly unfolded, blocking all the wind blades. The lightning collided with the wind blades, producing a sizzling sound. The wind blades were shattered by the lightning, turning into countless energy fragments.
"This Qilin has actually awakened the power of lightning!" A glint of greed flashed in Mo Chen's eyes. "Such a descendant of a divine beast, if we could subdue it, would definitely be a great help!"
