Chapter 222 The Inflated Jade Yangzi Obtains the Yin-Yang Mirror
Just like the lofty position of Qingyun Sect in the righteous path, no one can shake it in the slightest.
It's important to understand that in this dog-eat-dog world where strength reigns supreme, whoever possesses overwhelming power is the true ruler and controls all discourse.
Ling Feng was completely unaware of the complexities in Yu Yangzi's mind!
If he knew what Yu Yangzi was thinking, he would probably spit on that face without any mercy.
You should know that he had never even considered joining the Ghost King Sect, to which Biyao belonged, so how could he possibly look down on this completely unfamiliar Longevity Hall?
This Yu Yangzi actually dares to have such a wild idea; it's simply a pipe dream.
However, Ling Feng did not come here to show off his power; his real purpose was the Yin-Yang Mirror, which was suspected to be one of the fragments.
That's why Ling Feng patiently chatted with Yu Yangzi, exchanging a few words here and there.
Seeing Ling Feng's attitude, Yu Yangzi mistakenly thought that his plan to win Ling Feng over was very promising, and immediately became even more polite to Ling Feng.
Ling Feng followed them into the mysterious, desolate temple without making a sound.
As soon as Ling Feng stepped into the hall, he was deeply shocked by the scene before him.
This place truly lives up to its reputation as the former stronghold of the demonic path! Its interior layout is magnificent and breathtaking.
The entire hall resembles a small town, with a well-organized layout and a grand scale.
At the same time, Ling Feng also noticed the towering pavilion he had glimpsed from outside earlier.
Upon closer inspection, he was surprised to discover that the attic was actually built from an extremely rare type of ironwood.
This ironwood is exceptionally hard, making it a superior material for crafting magical artifacts.
However, this ironwood grows extremely slowly.
Moreover, its requirements for the growing environment can only be described as abnormally stringent.
Sunlight, water, soil, and other factors must be just right; even a slight deviation will prevent the plant from thriving.
For this reason, this kind of ironwood is extremely rare in the world, and ordinary people rarely see it.
Ling Feng gazed at the pavilion built from this rare ironwood and couldn't help but feel a surge of surprise.
He never expected to find such a luxurious building here.
You should know that a considerable amount of ironwood is needed to build such a pavilion!
This shows just how powerful the demonic path was when it unified the world in the past.
Seeing Ling Feng staring intently at the pavilion, Yu Yangzi couldn't help but show a smug look on his face.
Unable to contain his joy, he began to boast to Ling Feng incessantly:
"How about it? Isn't this pavilion magnificent? It took our demonic path a great deal of effort and wealth to build!"
Ling Feng simply smiled and did not respond to his words.
Because at this moment, Ling Feng had already discovered something unusual—this pavilion was actually shrouded in a rare array.
Because of this mysterious formation, the entire pavilion is seamlessly integrated, as if it had become an inseparable whole.
This means that although the pavilion is constructed of extremely precious and rare ironwood, the ironwood can only be viewed and cannot be touched.
If anyone harbors ill intentions and tries to take advantage of these ironwood pieces, they will immediately destroy this protective formation once they start dismantling them.
At that time, the entire attic will crumble and collapse in an instant.
And those ironwood pieces that were originally priceless will instantly lose all value and become a pile of useless waste.
No wonder this ironwood pavilion stands here, yet no one has ever dared to touch it.
It turns out that behind this seemingly tempting offer lies a huge risk and crisis.
After Ling Feng understood the mystery, he no longer had the intention to examine it further.
Meanwhile, Yu Yangzi showed off his treasure for quite a while.
Turning around, she saw that Ling Feng remained listless and showed no interest whatsoever.
His previously high spirits instantly plummeted, and he lost all interest in continuing to show off. So he simply and decisively led Ling Feng into the reception hall.
After everyone was seated, Ling Feng stated his purpose for coming without hesitation.
However, just as Ling Feng finished speaking, the entire atmosphere seemed to freeze suddenly, becoming extremely cold.
Yu Yangzi never expected that Ling Feng would be so greedy, setting his sights on the Yin-Yang Mirror, which he considered a treasure, so soon after arriving.
After Ling Feng finished speaking, he noticed that the atmosphere had become tense, and time passed by second by second.
After a brief silence, he decided not to wait any longer and went straight to ask Yu Yangzi for his opinion and attitude on the matter.
Yu Yangzi did not refuse outright on the spot, but he also did not give a clear and affirmative answer. Instead, he kept dodging the issue and avoiding the main point, and refused to give a direct response.
Moreover, he even subtly implied this meaning:
If Ling Feng were willing to join their Longevity Hall, then he would naturally be willing to hand over the Yin-Yang Mirror and directly appoint Ling Feng as the deputy sect leader of the Longevity Hall.
After Ling Feng understood the deeper meaning behind Yu Yangzi's words, he almost burst out laughing in anger.
He thought to himself that Yu Yangzi was really playing a clever game, trying to win him over with a mere Yin-Yang Mirror. It was utterly ridiculous.
Ling Feng stared coldly at the person in front of him, not wanting to waste any more words on him.
His aura suddenly erupted like a surging tide.
If he hadn't displayed such formidable strength, these people would probably have truly treated him like a sick cat to be bullied.
Originally, Ling Feng planned to discuss things with them calmly, but who could have imagined that Yu Yangzi would be so arrogant and ignorant.
At this moment, Yu Yangzi was stunned by Ling Feng's overwhelming aura. He suddenly realized that Ling Feng was incredibly powerful and had a decisive and ruthless style of doing things.
In an instant, a chill ran down my spine.
He felt a chill run through his body, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
Just now, Ling Feng's seemingly gentle and harmless appearance made Yu Yangzi a little complacent, to the point that he completely forgot how powerful the other party was.
However, now that he knew he had made a big mistake, he quickly made an extremely wise decision.
Yu Yangzi quickly chanted an incantation, and a flash of light appeared, along with a mirror radiating a strange aura that materialized in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, he respectfully held the mirror with both hands and carefully handed it to Ling Feng, while repeatedly muttering words of apology.
As soon as the Yin-Yang Mirror appeared, the mysterious sword in Lingfeng's system space trembled violently.
Ling Feng noticed this change and immediately understood—this Yin-Yang Mirror was indeed one of the fragments he had been searching for.
Since that's the case, he naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony. With a wave of his arm, he steadily took the Yin-Yang Mirror.
At first glance, this Yin-Yang Mirror looks like a strange and unusual object, only about the size of an adult's palm.
On the mirror, black and white intertwine to form a yin-yang pattern, seemingly containing endless mysteries of heaven and earth and the secrets of the universe.
Ling Feng glanced at the Yin-Yang Mirror casually, then nonchalantly put it into his system space.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Feng waved his arm lightly, and in an instant, a large number of dazzling natural treasures suddenly appeared in the center of the reception hall.
However, having sensed Yu Yangzi's ulterior motives beforehand, Ling Feng deliberately reduced the number of rare and precious materials he brought out this time.
Compared to the amount given to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and the Joyful Union Sect, this time it was pitifully small.
After all the rare and precious materials had been taken out, Ling Feng said to Yu Yangzi expressionlessly:
"These items are to be exchanged for the Yin-Yang Mirror in your possession."
When Yu Yangzi heard Ling Feng's words, he was overjoyed.
He originally thought that Ling Feng would take full advantage of him this time, and he was even prepared to be taken advantage of for free.
But to their utter surprise, Ling Feng would offer so many rare and precious natural treasures as a condition for exchange.
He stared intently at the pile of rare and precious materials on the ground, but the more he looked, the more terrified he became.
These rare and precious materials are all extremely rare treasures in the world, and any one of them would be enough to drive countless cultivators to fight over them.
With such generous compensation, even though he lost his beloved Yin-Yang Mirror, Yu Yangzi no longer felt the unbearable pain he had at the beginning.
Having obtained the Yin-Yang Mirror and already made compensation, Ling Feng directly bid farewell to Yu Yangzi.
When Yu Yangzi heard that Ling Feng, this jinx, was actually planning to leave, he couldn't help but feel secretly delighted, but on the surface, he still pretended to say some words of persuasion to keep him.
At the same time, a fake smile was forced onto his originally tense face.
You should know that although he lost the Yin-Yang Mirror, a priceless treasure, there is a whole bunch of valuable natural treasures on the ground in front of him!
All things considered, this deal doesn't seem like a bad one at all.
However, Ling Feng had absolutely no interest in staying, and simply gave a perfunctory reply:
"If the opportunity arises another day, I will definitely visit again."
Upon hearing this, Yu Yangzi's smile froze instantly, as if he had been frozen in place.
After all, Ling Feng was known for his eccentric and unpredictable temperament, as well as his extremely cruel and ruthless methods. He really didn't want to get entangled with such a person again.
Fortunately, Yu Yangzi reacted quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he put on a smiling face again, treating Ling Feng's words as nothing more than a joke.
Just as Ling Feng turned to leave, Yu Yangzi seemed to suddenly remember something important and quickly spoke up:
"Young Master Ling, please wait a moment, I have something else to tell you."
As far as I know, Wanrenwang of the Ghost King Sect is currently in this desolate wilderness.
This person is treacherous, cunning, ruthless, and certainly not a kind soul.
If Young Master Ling encounters this person, I hope you will be cautious and take precautions.
The reason Yu Yangzi reminded Ling Feng in this way was simply because he didn't want Ling Feng to have any connection with the Ghost King Sect.
After all, if Ling Feng were tricked into joining the Ghost King Sect by Wan Renwang, the consequences would be unimaginable!
From now on, the entire demonic path will likely become dominated by the Ghost King Sect, which will hold absolute power and control everything.
However, Ling Feng outwardly accepted Yu Yangzi's "kindness," but inwardly he was complaining.
As for my understanding of Wanrenwang, I, who have read the original work, probably know it better than you do.
After silently complaining to himself, Ling Feng took his leave again.
He then leaped into the air and sped away like a bolt of lightning.
In the blink of an eye, his figure had disappeared into the distant horizon.
After leaving the Desolate Temple, Ling Feng flew at lightning speed for a long distance.
Then he slowly lowered himself down and landed steadily in a desert.
Here, yellow sand fills the sky, the wind howls, and it is a desolate place, but none of this has much of an impact on Ling Feng.
Following the steps he had long since mastered, Ling Feng retrieved the mysterious sword and the Yin-Yang Mirror from the system space, preparing to begin fusing them together.
Under the guidance of the mysterious sword, the yin-yang mirror gradually merged into one, emitting a dazzling light.
After the fusion was complete, Ling Feng observed the mysterious sword in his hand and found that the original barrier between the hilt and the blade had become increasingly solid.
Therefore, the mysterious fragments collected earlier should all be components of this mysterious sword located in different parts.
However, despite having successfully fused with the fragment of the Yin-Yang Mirror, Ling Feng felt a deep sense of helplessness and headache as he looked at the mysterious sword before him, whose blade was still 80% illusory.
At this current slow pace of collection, who knows when it will be possible to gather all the fragments of the mysterious sword!
Moreover, based on the information available so far, the only known fragment is the Samsara Bead in the hands of Faxiang of Tianyin Temple.
As for the other fragments, they disappeared without a trace, as if they had vanished into thin air.
After a moment, Ling Feng took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the frustration and anxiety in his heart, and stopped thinking about the things that were bothering him.
Immediately afterwards, with a thought, the mysterious sword instantly transformed into a stream of light and was stored in the system space.
After completing this action, Ling Feng pushed off the ground with both feet, and his whole body flew up like an arrow, rushing straight towards the Divine Continent.
Now that all the fragments of the Demonic Path have fallen into Ling Feng's hands, his next task is to go to Tianyin Temple and try to seize the Reincarnation Pearl from Faxiang.
Since he no longer needed to use his divine sense to explore his surroundings as carefully as he had on the way there, Ling Feng's return journey was much faster than before.
Before long, he flew out of the desolate land full of yellow sand.
