Chapter 221 Yu Yangzi's Schemes at the Savage God Temple
Back then, after Ling Feng successfully fused with the Zhuxian Sword, the power surged forth like a raging torrent, and the increase in its power was simply astonishing.
Now, although fusing with the Love-Slaying Sword has doubled the power of the mysterious sword, it pales in comparison to the Immortal-Slaying Sword and seems petty.
Even so, Ling Feng was still filled with a sense of satisfaction.
After all, this mysterious sword has been completely transformed and is very different from the one of the past.
Ling Feng firmly believed that with this sword alone, he would be able to dominate a region in the world of Zhu Xian and become a figure that everyone looked up to.
After finally calming his excited and restless heart, Ling Feng softly recited the incantation and summoned the mysterious sword back to the system space.
Immediately afterwards, he flashed into the air like an arrow, and sped off towards the northwest of the Divine Continent using the Sky-Riding Step.
Ling Feng's destination was crystal clear: the Savage Temple, located deep in the wilderness in the northwest of the Divine Continent.
Although Ling Feng is not yet certain whether the Yin-Yang Mirror held by Yu Yangzi is one of the fragments of the mysterious sword, he feels that this trip is imperative.
With the mindset of "better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free," Ling Feng sped along the way, unleashing his unparalleled power without reservation.
As a result, all the petty scoundrels along the way, feeling this terrifying pressure, fled in terror, not daring to provoke any trouble.
With Ling Feng traveling at full speed, his speed was simply astonishing!
In just one day, he traversed the western region of the Divine Continent like lightning, speeding from the southernmost point to the northernmost point, and finally arriving at the wild edge of the northwest of the Divine Continent.
This place is called a "wild and untamed land" because its climate and environment are extremely harsh.
Looking out, the land is barren, with not a trace of green vegetation to be found, only the vast desert stretching endlessly as far as the eye can see.
Ordinary people simply cannot survive here. Even cultivators with a certain level of cultivation face numerous difficulties and dangers if they want to survive in this vast and boundless desert.
As a result, this area is almost untouched by humans, and over time, it has earned the name "wilderness."
Legend has it that in the past, this place had a mild and pleasant climate, and its forests were lush and prosperous.
However, at some unknown time, a shocking and unprecedented catastrophe suddenly struck, completely destroying this once vibrant land and turning it into the desolate and barren landscape it is today.
However, most of the information about the cause and course of this disaster is just hearsay, with no conclusive evidence or detailed records left to the world.
Therefore, people usually treat such rumors as mere gossip and laugh them off.
Ling Feng stood quietly before this boundless desert, his gaze fixed ahead.
Faced with this wild and untamed land full of unknowns and dangers, he did not hesitate for a moment. With a flash, he streaked across the sky like a shooting star and sped towards the deeper part of the desert without looking back.
At the same time, Ling Feng spread out his incredibly powerful divine sense without reservation, like a sophisticated and efficient radar, rapidly scanning every inch of space in front of him in all directions without any blind spots.
He moved like lightning, rushing headlong into the depths of the wilderness.
Because the place was deserted and there were no landmarks to refer to, Ling Feng had no idea how far he had flown.
However, he never managed to detect any trace of the legendary barbaric temple.
Even so, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue his arduous journey deeper into this desolate wilderness.
During this long and arduous journey, Ling Feng was surprised to discover that this seemingly desolate and uninhabited land was not actually a truly lifeless place.
Despite its desolate and bleak appearance, it is still permeated with faint traces of life, and these traces of life do not come from a single species.
He discovered as many as three completely different life forms!
The first thing that catches the eye is a giant worm that is darting rapidly beneath the endless yellow sand. This worm is unusually large, almost comparable to a fierce and strong Tibetan mastiff.
Whenever it moves quickly under the sand layer, it stirs up clouds of sand and dust, as if a small sandstorm is raging.
Then, Ling Feng noticed another terrifying creature—a giant lizard slowly crawling across the yellow sand dunes.
This lizard is enormous, almost comparable in size to an adult elephant.
Its rough, thick scales shimmered with an eerie light, and every step it took carried a heavy, oppressive feeling that sent chills down one's spine.
The last creature is the vulture, which feeds exclusively on carrion.
However, the vultures here are also quite unusual, as they are as big as calves.
Ling Feng once witnessed such a scene: a dead giant lizard became the meal of this group of vultures in just a few bites.
However, why did Ling Feng release his aura so ostentatiously?
It turns out that the mysterious beings we encountered along the way all possessed keen perception and knew how to seek advantage and avoid harm.
Therefore, although Ling Feng shone brightly like a dazzling star, these guys wisely chose to stay far away and dared not easily provoke this seemingly unapproachable powerhouse.
But at this moment, Ling Feng had no time to pay attention to these creatures that were hesitant to approach him, because he was preoccupied with a troublesome matter.
It should be noted that since stepping into this vast and boundless wilderness, he has been flying at high speed in the air for quite some time.
However, to his dismay, no matter how hard he searched, he was unable to find even the slightest trace of the legendary barbaric temple.
As time went by, doubts began to creep into his heart: Could this much-discussed, barbaric temple be nothing more than a vague and ethereal legend?
Does it really exist in this world?
Moreover, this desolate land in front of us is like an endless desert ocean, with endless yellow sand and undulating dunes as far as the eye can see, making it difficult to discern the exact direction.
To make matters worse, due to the lack of obvious landmarks or reference points, Ling Feng couldn't even estimate how far he was from his destination.
At this moment, even Ling Feng himself was somewhat bewildered, not knowing where he was.
With no other choice, Ling Feng gritted his teeth and decided to continue forging ahead, resolutely flying towards the unknown area ahead.
He firmly believed that as long as he persevered, he would eventually find that wild temple that terrified countless people.
And so, Ling Feng flew forward for another half a day without stopping.
Finally, hard work pays off!
Ling Feng's incredibly powerful divine sense suddenly sensed something, as if it had caught a faint clue.
Following the faint signal, Ling Feng looked closely and saw a massive, magnificent fortress standing tall in the distant desert ahead.
Seeing this, Ling Feng's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down a little, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Keep in mind, he flew through this desolate land for over a whole day!
Such a long period of time was enough for him to traverse almost the entire Divine Continent.
The long flight left him exhausted, and he even began to worry that he might just cross this vast and desolate wilderness.
Just then, a magnificent fortress suddenly came into view, and Ling Feng secretly wondered:
"This must be the legendary Desolate Temple, and also the location of the Longevity Hall."
After all, in this desolate and barren land, who else but the once unified demonic forces would expend such enormous manpower and resources to build such a magnificent and imposing fortress?
The fortress is surrounded by sturdy walls that are over ten meters high, forming an impenetrable barrier that separates the outside world from the inside.
The only way for people to enter and exit is through the four main gates located in the four cardinal directions.
However, the most eye-catching feature is the towering pavilion in the very center of the fortress.
Ling Feng couldn't help but become very interested in it. He wondered what kind of magical material this pavilion was made of, that it could still stand firm and remain unharmed in this harsh environment of raging sandstorms.
Despite his curiosity, Ling Feng knew that the most important task at hand was not to explore the secrets of the pavilion, but to find a way to seize the crucial treasure—the Yin-Yang Mirror—from Yu Yangzi.
Moreover, the environment of this desolate place is extremely harsh, with strong winds carrying sand and dust constantly attacking, making people feel very uncomfortable.
Ling Feng felt that every extra moment he stayed here was torture, and he wished he could sprout wings and fly away from this place immediately.
To avoid causing unnecessary conflict and trouble, Ling Feng controlled his aura and slowly landed outside the east gate of this mysterious and ancient barbaric temple.
However, just as he landed, several sharp gazes locked onto him with unerring accuracy.
It turned out that the disciples of Changsheng Hall who were on guard here had already noticed Ling Feng's arrival.
You should know that in this desolate and barren wilderness, there is almost nowhere to hide or conceal oneself.
Even for someone as powerful as Ling Feng, completely concealing his whereabouts is extremely difficult.
Moreover, Ling Feng had never intended to hide his identity, so it was entirely expected that he would be discovered.
After being discovered, Ling Feng remained calm and showed no sign of panic.
He first politely clasped his hands in greeting to the disciples on guard duty and introduced himself.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Feng stated without any hesitation that he had come specifically to pay a visit to Yu Yangzi, the master of the Longevity Hall.
Although these disciples had never met Ling Feng before and did not know him personally, they had long heard of his renowned name.
They knew that the young, handsome, and renowned man before them was no ordinary person, so they dared not be negligent in the slightest.
Two disciples quickly turned and ran into the hall to report, while the rest respectfully stepped forward and warmly invited Ling Feng to enter the Wilderness Temple.
Ling Feng smiled and calmly followed the disciples through the gate.
The moment they stepped through the door, a huge crowd surged out, a dense mass of people, creating a truly spectacular scene.
The imposing, otherworldly figure at the very front of the crowd was none other than Yu Yangzi, the sect leader of the Longevity Hall.
When Yu Yangzi finally saw that the person who had come was indeed Ling Feng, his originally serious face instantly blossomed with a fawning smile.
He quickly walked forward, taking three steps at a time, his face beaming with a warm smile, and repeatedly said:
"Oh my! Young Master Ling, your presence is an honor to our Changsheng Hall! Please come in."
As the sect leader of the Longevity Hall, one of the four major sects of the demonic path, Yu Yangzi has always been a person of great authority and extraordinary demeanor.
Logically speaking, such a performance would not be possible.
However, there are always exceptions; the key is to see who you are dealing with.
If this person were Ling Feng, then the situation would be perfectly understandable.
For Yu Yangzi, making such a move did not cause him any resentment or discomfort.
Back when Ling Feng displayed his divine power on Qingyun Mountain and slaughtered everyone, Yu Yangzi was a witness to that earth-shattering battle.
Whenever Yu Yangzi recalls the astonishing methods Ling Feng used back then, his heart trembles involuntarily, and a chill runs up his spine, leaving him with lingering fear to this day.
In fact, for a long time, Yu Yangzi had longed to get to know Ling Feng and establish a good relationship with him.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and I was never able to find a suitable opportunity to realize this wish.
After that thrilling battle at Qingyun Mountain, Ling Feng vanished from everyone's sight as if he had evaporated into thin air, without a trace.
Yu Yangzi could only sigh with regret.
As for why he was so persistent in his pursuit of Ling Feng and so eager to befriend him, that was the reason.
The reason for this is not hard to understand.
In Yu Yangzi's view, this was solely based on Ling Feng's extraordinary strength and terrifying combat power displayed on Qingyun Mountain that day.
If they can successfully recruit them to the Changsheng Hall, then without a doubt, the Changsheng Hall will soar to the top, instantly becoming the leader of all the major sects in the demonic path and the undisputed overlord of the demonic path!
