The Bizarre Spirit Tomb Sect

"Follow them and see."

Someone in the crowd said something, and everyone realized what was happening.

With these guys in front of them, everyone will be prepared even if danger arises.

Chu Feng and his two companions continued their journey, and as they ventured deeper into the mountains, they encountered corpses everywhere along the way.

The cultivation levels of these corpses ranged from the initial Mortal Shedding Realm and Dao Foundation Realm to the later True Fate Realm.

The expressions of the group following Chu Feng and his two companions gradually turned grim.

Many people were having second thoughts, but having come this far, no one was willing to leave just like that.

Some low-level cultivators even began searching the corpses, and when they discovered that the treasures on these cultivators' bodies were still there, they all showed expressions of joy.

But soon some cultivators started fighting over the unequal distribution of the spoils.

"I was the one who spotted this body first."

It was clearly me!

"..."

Several major factions noticed that a conflict had broken out behind them, but did not stop it, since the fewer people involved in a treasure hunt, the better.

These guys are fighting tooth and nail for it now, but in a little while, what they get will all end up being theirs anyway.

Soon, Chu Feng and his two companions arrived outside an underground palace, with the four large characters "Sect Leader's Hall" written on it.

Compared to other places, there were significantly fewer corpses in this area.

Without any hesitation, Shi Xuan slammed his hand down, opening the door wide.

What came into view was a quiet, eerie, and chaotic hall.

Compared to other places, there were obvious signs of a fight in this hall.

"That's the Ninth Elder of the Spirit Tomb Sect. I fought him last month."

"The Sixth Elder of the Spirit Tomb Sect is also here; I had drinks with him three months ago."

"How did they all die here? Who killed them?"

"..."

The cultivators from various factions discussed the corpses in the main hall.

After glancing around indifferently, Chu Feng took the lead and walked into the main hall. As soon as he stepped across the threshold, he felt an unusual aura, as if he were being watched by something.

However, he didn't care and continued walking into the main hall.

Shi Xuan and Liang Yi followed closely behind. After entering the main hall, they began to look around.

"That's the leader of the Spirit Tomb Sect."

Liang Yi stared at the old man on the throne and exclaimed in surprise.

Upon hearing this, the group of cultivators who had been secretly observing outside the door all looked towards the main hall. When they saw that familiar face, they were all stunned.

The leader of the Spirit Tomb Sect was a renowned and powerful figure in Lijie Mountain, and no one could have imagined that he would perish there.

Something's not right.

Shi Xuan subconsciously narrowed his eyes as he looked at the leader of the Spirit Tomb Sect.

"Master, what's wrong with him?"

Liang Yi asked curiously.

"Look at his expression. Although his eyes are open, he has a smile on his face, and there is a fanatical piety in his eyes, as if he has seen the god he worships. Could it be that the Spirit Tomb Sect is worshipping a powerful being?"

After Shi Xuan finished speaking, his face was full of doubt.

Liang Yi shook his head. "I don't know that, but I've heard a rumor that the founder of the Spirit Tomb Sect was actually a tomb keeper, and their sect was built on top of that tomb. The disciples of the Spirit Tomb Sect are usually very mysterious, and their cultivation techniques are unique in Lijie Mountain, even stronger than those of other major forces."

"Oh?"

Shi Xuan murmured thoughtfully, "Could it be that what the Spirit Tomb Sect has been guarding for generations is the corpse of a Great Sage?"

Upon hearing this, the group of cultivators standing outside the door could no longer remain calm, and several figures landed in the main hall, speaking in unison.

Is this really true?

Shi Xuan ignored them and instead focused his gaze on Liang Yi: "Do you want to know the answer?"

Liang Yi wanted to say, "Master, if you tell me, I will listen; if you don't tell me, I won't ask."

But he quickly noticed that his ancestor and the other bigwigs from various major forces were looking at him expectantly, so he asked, "Please enlighten me, Master."

Shi Xuan laughed and said, "If this place really is a contingency plan left by my good senior brother, then it's not surprising to find the corpse of a Great Sage here."

hiss...

The assembled cultivators gasped in surprise when they saw the young man speak so casually.

They finally understood why Liang Yi had switched allegiance to another faction; a faction with Great Sage at its helm was indeed countless times stronger than the Complete Perfection Sword Sect.

This is not betraying the sect, but rather a meteoric rise to power. Perhaps in the future, the Quanzhen Sword Sect will become a major force in Lijie Mountain.

At this moment, the leaders of the Complete Perfection Sword Sect were filled with mixed feelings, and they wanted to say something.

Why didn't you tell us about this sooner, A-Yi? We've all been worried about you for so long.

Liang Yi asked tentatively, "Master, are you saying that person is your fellow disciple?"

"It was like that before, but not anymore."

Shi Xuan said something very meaningful, leaving everyone present confused.

He then asked, "By the way, is the strongest person in the Spirit Tomb Sect this deceased sect leader?"

"No."

Liang Yi shook his head. "I've heard that there's a mysterious Supreme Elder in the Spirit Tomb Sect who is said to have fought against the Nirvana Realm expert, but no one knows just how strong he is."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Liang Lineage patriarch added, "I have heard about this matter. It should have happened more than two hundred years ago. A descendant of a Nirvana expert perished in a conflict with the disciples of the Spirit Tomb Sect. That expert intended to wipe out the Spirit Tomb Sect."

After exchanging blows from a distance, the Nirvana Realm expert retreated. However, the expert from the Spirit Tomb Sect never showed himself, so no one knew whether the expert from the Spirit Tomb Sect was still alive.

If even he were to perish in this turmoil, I'm afraid...

Before he could finish speaking, all the cultivators present involuntarily shivered.

If even a Nirvana expert were to perish here, wouldn't they be like lambs to the slaughter, walking right into a trap?

Just then, Chu Feng suddenly spoke up, "The powerful figure you speak of has fallen, but he hasn't truly perished."

Another riddle solver!!!

The cultivators present suddenly felt an urge to punch them. Couldn't these two just explain themselves clearly all at once?

It's really frustrating that we all have to guess what's going on in every sentence.

Shi Xuan said, "Master, do you mean that guy is still in this main hall?"

Chu Feng nodded. "Not bad, it's still the same old style of the Nine Nether Holy Land, it's really unsettling."

The moment the words "Nine Nether Holy Land" were uttered, the entire hall fell into complete silence.

Even the cultivators outside the door were petrified on the spot.

For cultivators like them, the Nine Nether Holy Land was an unattainable realm. Now, someone was actually telling them that there was a Nirvana expert from the Nine Nether Holy Land within the Spirit Tomb Sect. Wasn't this going to kill them?

Just as everyone was filled with unease, a strange, sinister laugh suddenly echoed through the empty and quiet hall.

"Hehehe... I never expected that someone in a small place like Lijie Mountain would recognize the methods of my Nine Nether Holy Land. I really don't know whether to call this your good fortune or your misfortune?"

The sound echoed throughout the entire Spirit Tomb Sect. The vast majority of cultivators inside and outside the main hall were stunned into silence, and those who were still fighting also stopped.

The laughter was so eerie and chilling, coupled with the fact that the Spirit Tomb Sect was still littered with corpses, with not a single survivor left, that many people felt their scalps tingle and their bodies tremble.

Chu Feng picked at his ear with his finger and said impatiently, "Alright, stop playing tricks and show us your true colors so we can see what kind of charade you're up to!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the temperature in the main hall dropped by more than ten degrees, and the way the cultivators from various forces looked at Chu Feng changed.

"Hehehe... You can't even handle this little brat? In that case, this old ancestor will take pity on you and let you see my true face!"

As they spoke, a dark shadow appeared in the sky above the main hall...
