Mo Liefeng was completely infuriated. Since Ye Mo had killed his beloved concubine, he had to kill Ye Mo. The moment he said those words, he formed the whip in his hand again. Then, he lashed out, sending numerous whip images towards Ye Mo.
“Audacious, you dare attack?” When Cheng Kun saw that Mo Liefeng dared to attack, he widened his eyes. He palmed forward, sending a massive palm image towards Mo Liefeng.
“Today, I shall see how special the disciples of Door of Desolation are,” said Mo Liefeng furiously. He shifted the direction of his whip. Like a viper, the whip twisted and headed towards Cheng Kun instead.
Bang!
The palm image and the whip image met, the collision creating a sound as loud as rumbling thunder, creating a shockwave that caused their surroundings to tremble.
“Hmph. A junior from Door of Desolation, so your strength is only this much? Today, I shall slaughter to my heart’s content.” Warriors above Heaven’s Gate Realm were able to see the strength of their opponent with a single exchange. Although Cheng Kun was similarly at mid-stage Energy Burst Realm, there was still a gap between them.
Killing intent had already surfaced within Mo Liefeng’s heart.
Bang! Bang!
He formed numerous hand seals, sending a wave of black radiance that swept forward like a black storm. Along with the black storm was a powerful gravitational force that started pulling everything around it into the black storm. Even some Energy Shaping Realm beasts were pulled inside and turned into mincemeat within the storm. Like an insatiable black hole, the black storm pulled everything in, turning it all into nothingness.
“What martial technique is this? Is it the Zone of Demon’s Infernal Storm?” Cheng Kun’s voice started shivering at what he saw. On the Lingwu Continent, there was a region called the Zone of Demon. As for the Infernal Storm, it was one of the top martial techniques of the Zone of Demon, an extremely powerful martial technique. Martial techniques were divided into Spiritual Level, Mortal Level, Supreme Level, and Deity Level. As for this Infernal Storm, it was a Supreme Level martial technique. Since Mo Liefeng had utilized this technique, it was clear he was intending to kill all three of them.
“Listen on, disciples of the Door of Desolation. Do you think we from the Zone of Demon fear you? The Lingwu Continent will belong to the Zone of Demon sooner or later,” said Mo Liefeng with a snort. He waved his hands and the massive Infernal Storm started moving and stopped above the three of them.
The three had already used all their power to stabilize their footing. However, the ground beneath them was crumbling without stop.
“Let me do it,” shouted Nangong Qingxue. Then, she brandished her green whip repeatedly, creating sound waves that were visible to the naked eye. The sound waves turned into a massive door above them.
Instantly, all three of them felt the pressure on them reducing.
“Senior Brother Cheng Kun, leave with Ye Mo first. I shall arrive shortly,” said Nangong Qingxue with a solemn expression. But before she could finish her words, the Infernal Storm turned berserk. The massive door started twisting and warping.
“If you had left that human behind previously, I might still have spared you out of respect for the Door of Desolation. But now, there is no way out for you,” said Mo Liefeng with a sinister smile. His aura grew, causing the Infernal Storm to become even more powerful. Finally, the door collapsed.
Crack!
The ground below them also crumbled apart.
“There’s a hollow space beneath me!” Ye Mo shouted immediately after he realized it.
Nangong Qingxue and Cheng Kun immediately reacted and charged in Ye Mo’s direction.
They arrived in an underground palace, a palace filled with golden crystals. Due to the raging Infernal Storm, the ceiling of this palace was still shaking.
“Everything is made of gold crystals? Could the Jade Crystal Beast be in this palace?” said Cheng Kun in astonishment.
“Perhaps this is the lair of the Jade Crystal Beast. However, the Jade Crystal Beast is too powerful and it has powerful defenses as well. Warriors below Transcendence Realm are incapable of damaging it at all. Experts of our Door of Desolation have searched for it many times but failed. Unexpectedly, it’s actually here,” said Nangong Qingxue who immediately realized the truth using her intelligence.
“So shall we enter? Mo Liefeng will arrive soon,” said Cheng Kun.
Ye Mo voiced his opinion. “If this is truly the lair of the Jade Crystal Beast, our best option is to lure Mo Liefeng to the beast and let the two kill each other. Then, we can take the opportunity to flee.”
The others nodded. With no hesitation, they charged into the palace. Both Nangong Qingxue and Cheng Kun were able to scan their surroundings with their true energy. Shortly after, they discovered a powerful aura moving in tandem with the rhythm of the air. This was not an aura that felt powerful due to the strength of its owner. Rather, it was an aura naturally emanating a sense of suppression.
Trailing the aura, the three sped forth and after a few minutes, they arrived at the innermost part of the palace. The interior of the palace was extremely gorgeous. Their surroundings were filled with gold crystals, and at the middle of the hall was a massive transparent gold crystal with an oval shape.A bright gold radiance was overflowing from the crystal, and from within, a powerful aura could be felt. In fact, within the crystal was something with a physical appearance of a qilin cub. Its size was similar to a newborn kitten. Its entire body was covered by the gold crystal, and its eyes were shut, seemingly in slumber.
“What a powerful aura. Is this a cub of the Jade Crystal Beast?” Nangong Qingxue muttered solemnly.
“Jade Crystal Beasts have never been ordinary beasts. It used to be the mount of the Dragon God. They are extremely arrogant, and they had the partial blood of a dragon coursing within their veins. This cub alone is probably already stronger than us. Fortunately, it is asleep,” said Cheng Kun solemnly.
On the other hand, Ye Mo had an odd sense of familiarity when he laid eyes on the cub before him. This was a feeling similar to the feeling of seeing his loved one. Slowly, he approached the oval-shaped gold crystal.
“Ye Mo, are you insane?” Nangong Qingxue immediately pulled at him when she saw him walking towards the beast.
Bang!
Suddenly, a crashing sound rang out from outside the palace. The crystals within the palace started cracking.
Swish!
In a flash, a figure appeared before them. Mo Liefeng had arrived.
Mo Liefeng stared at the beast within the gold crystal, his gaze was burning and he had completely ignored the three of them. “It is truly quite a surprise that a cub of the Jade Crystal Beast is here. The Zone of Demon’s emissary sent me here to locate the cub in the first place. Hahaha, how lucky of me. This beast seems to be in the midst of a transformation. Haha, I will take this chance and capture it. I will be rewarded by the Demon Lord if I present him this beast as his mount. I might even stand a chance to reach the Transcendence Realm in the future with the reward.”
His hand transformed into a claw that abruptly reached towards the gold crystal.
