662: First meeting with Emperor Wuye
"What an insensitive thing, trying to attract my attention this way." A trace of anger rose in Feng Shanshan's heart.
Having been accustomed to being the center of attention for so many years, this was the first time she had been so completely ignored by a man, showing just how deep the resentment in her heart was right now.
Early the next morning, the group set off again, rushing toward the direction of the Ancient Ruins.
Along the way, they often encountered some Heavenly Dao Realm Yao Beasts, but they were all easily dealt with.
Since Zhou Zhixin was eager to show off in front of Feng Shanshan, most of the Yao Beasts were dealt with by him. The remaining Yao Beasts were killed by Feng Dagang and Dugu Long, so Yang Lingchen was happy to take it easy along the way.
"Some people shouldn't be brought along. They can't help at all when facing danger, and they might even drag us down later."
Zhou Zhixin spoke with a sarcastic, Yin and Yang tone, hinting indirectly.
"Brother Feng, how far away are the Ancient Ruins?" Yang Lingchen ignored the other party and turned to look at Feng Dagang.
"It's not far now. Once we go around the mountain ahead, we should be almost there," Feng Dagang replied.
"Brother Feng, my strength is low, so I won't drag you down. Let us part ways here." Yang Lingchen clasped his hands. Since they were close to the destination, he wanted to act alone.
"Well, Brother Yang, why don't you stick with us? It'll be easier to look out for each other," Feng Dagang said.
"Brother, since he wants to leave, just let him," Feng Shanshan said.
"Shanshan, say less." Feng Dagang glared at his sister, then looked at Yang Lingchen. "Brother Yang, my younger sister is outspoken, don't take it to heart. This is my sound transmission jade. If you run into any trouble, remember to come back. After all, we set out together."
"That's right, Brother Yang, why don't you stay?" Dugu Long tried to persuade him.
"Kid, I also think you shouldn't leave. With your low cultivation level, if you leave us, you won't even know how you died," Zhou Zhixin sneered.
"Thank you, Brother Feng and Brother Dugu. In that case, I won't leave," Yang Lingchen said, clasping his fists, completely ignoring Zhou Zhixin and Feng Shanshan.
Since the other party wanted to slap his Face, he would play along until the end and see whose Face ended up swollen.
"That's great! Let's continue on our way," Feng Dagang laughed heartily.
"Stinky brat, how dare you ignore This Old Master! Don't let This Old Master catch an opportunity, or I'll definitely kill you." A trace of gloom flashed in Zhou Zhixin's heart, and his expression became extremely dark.
"If you're scared of dying, just say so. Don't make such high-sounding excuses."
Feng Shanshan smiled disdainfully, her eyes full of contempt. At this moment, she looked down on Yang Lingchen even more.
Yang Lingchen ignored the other party. After all, she was Feng Dagang's younger sister, so he still had to give some Face.
The group continued rushing toward the Ancient Ruins. Along the way, the Cultivators they encountered became more and more numerous, and many people even started fighting over certain benefits.
After traveling for another two days, the group finally arrived at the very center of the Hubei Forest.
At this moment, a pitch-black cave came into everyone's view. The cave exuded an ancient and profound aura, accompanied by strands of pure Spiritual Qi.
Currently, tens of thousands of Cultivators had gathered around the cave. These Cultivators came from major powers in the Northwest, and naturally, there were also many strong individuals from other regions.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a deep aura and sharp eyes was seen breaking the Formation of the cave.
Behind this middle-aged man, several Cultivators in the Early Stage of Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm were guarding him.
"Zong Kun, is this Formation really that difficult to break? It's taking even you this long." Just then, an Old Man in Black Robe, carrying a terrifying pressure, walked over.
This Old Man in Black Robe was named Shen Tutu, and he was the Grand Elder of the Corpse Ghost Sect, one of the ten Peak powers in the Gods Star Domain.
"Elder Shen, this is a great Formation from the Ancient era. If not for the passage of time, it would be difficult for me to break it with my strength," Zong Kun said with a serious expression, while continuing to break the Formation.
"Mhm, don't rush. Take your time. This Seat has plenty of time."
Shen Tutu's voice carried a chilling Killing Intent, causing the surrounding Cultivators to retreat several steps.
As time passed, more and more Cultivators gathered around, but most of their cultivation levels were in the Heavenly Dao Realm and Haotian Realm, and strong individuals at the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm were few and far between.
"Brother, what should we do? With so many people here, it will probably be difficult for us to pick up any scraps." Feng Shanshan asked.
"Shanshan, we were only here for experience in the first place. If we can pick up scraps, that's great, but if not, it doesn't matter," Feng Dagang replied.
Facing so many powerful individuals, trying to pick up scraps was like a pipe dream, so Feng Dagang didn't hold much hope.
Just then, Yang Lingchen suddenly frowned. A terrifying sense of agitation came from within the haotian jade space.
"Brother Feng, we shall meet again if fate wills it. I have something urgent to attend to, so I'll leave first."
After Yang Lingchen finished speaking, his figure instantly disappeared into the crowd, simultaneously activating the yellow springs diagram to completely conceal his aura.
"Brother, look! I told you he wasn't reliable! As soon as he saw he couldn't pick up scraps, he backed out," Feng Shanshan pouted.
"Enough, say less. Maybe Brother Yang really does have something urgent," Feng Dagang said.
Just then, several terrifying figures descended upon the entrance of the Ancient Ruins.
These individuals all exuded terrifying auras, an innate aura of a superior being, and an invisible pressure that spread from them, causing the surrounding Cultivators to lower their heads, not daring to look directly.
At this time, a young man, dressed in black brocade clothes with gold trim, tall and straight, and exceptionally handsome, sped over from a distance and instantly appeared above the crowd.
His deep and sharp eyes scanned the surroundings, as if searching for something.
"Di Wuye, what are you looking for? Is there someone you know among this group of trash?"
Suddenly, a playful voice rang out, followed immediately by a young man with outstanding temperament and extraordinary handsomeness appearing on the scene.
This person was wearing a white long robe embroidered with delicate patterns. He had a head of glossy black hair meticulously combed, and two strands of hair fell from his brow to his shoulders, making him look remarkably handsome.
The person who arrived was none other than Yang Moye, the Young Lord of Haotian Immortal Palace, and also one of the ten great Geniuses of the younger generation in the Gods Star Domain.
"Yang Moye, you had better mind your own business concerning This Young Master." Di Wuye's tone was icy, his voice permeated with Killing Intent.
Although Yang Moye was half a minor Realm higher than him, Di Wuye did not take the other party seriously at all.
Although both were peerless Prodigies, it was truly hard to say who would win or lose if they actually fought.
Seeing that Di Wuye completely refused to give him Face, Yang Moye's expression also became extremely gloomy.
However, he did not continue to provoke Di Wuye. After all, the Ancient Ruins were about to open, and fighting to the death at this time was not a wise choice for him.
"Strange, I clearly sensed the aura of the Vast Heaven Jade just now, so why did it vanish without a trace all of a sudden?"
Di Wuye still scanned the surroundings unwillingly. At this moment, his mood was exceptionally agitated.
As long as he devoured one more Dao God, his cultivation level and talent would completely surpass Huang Tianchi.
By then, even within the entire Realm of the Gods, he would possess absolute authority.
At this moment, Yang Lingchen's mind was strained to the extreme. He kept his head bowed low, hiding in the crowd, and the aura of the Vast Heaven Jade was completely concealed by the yellow springs diagram.
At this moment, Yang Lingchen had confirmed that the other party was Di Wuye.
Judging from the aura emanating from the other party, Yang Lingchen knew that his current self could not be Di Wuye's opponent; he might not even be able to withstand a single move.
Fortunately, there were tens of thousands of people here, otherwise Yang Lingchen would definitely not be able to escape Di Wuye's search today.
