Xia Quan was stunned for a moment. Then, he seemed to have come to an understanding with Li Chen as he smiled, ”It seems like Brother Li is also someone from the same sect!”
The same kind of person? Li Chen silently cursed. Could it be that Xia Quan was talking about cultivating the Manifestation Art?
”This Manifestation Art is truly extraordinary. I've only cultivated it for a few days, but I already have a faint feeling that I'm about to break through.” Xia Quan had an expression of confidence that was completely different from the stiff and stiff expression he had in the past.
Li Chen was really curious. Could it be that the Manifestation Art was actually still very powerful? It was only because of that black fog that it was extremely difficult to cultivate?
This curiosity made Li Chen unable to hold back and went back to the pool to check things out …
What was unexpected was that he actually ran into Ghost Valley in the pool!
”This old man has been guarding the door for fifty years. This is the first time I've seen a young man like you. To think that you would dare to resist the temptation of the Manifestation Art!” Gui Gu's voice was hoarse and unpleasant to the ears, causing Li Chen's heart to go numb.
Li Chen made up his mind. If Ghost Valley made a move, he would immediately escape the sect!
Gui Gu Zi let out a cold snort, ”I already asked them whether they want to cultivate, it was their own resources. What does that have to do with me!”
”What has this got to do with you? I saw with my own eyes what you did to this pool! Then a lot of black fog appeared in the pool! ” As Li Chen spoke, he looked in every direction, searching for a way to escape.
”I didn't expect a little kid like you to know so much. It seems like this old man can't let you stay in this world any longer!” Gui Gu Zi stared coldly at Li Chen.
”Wait a moment, senior!” Li Chen quickly stopped Gui Gu Zi, ”Since Senior does not plan on letting me go, then I would like to ask Senior to tell me, what exactly is at the bottom of this pool?”
Gui Gu coldly laughed, ”You little rascal, you sure are shrewd. You want to trick me into revealing the secret at the bottom of this pond, but in any case, you're going to die!” It doesn't matter even if I tell you, there's a person sealed at the bottom of this pond, and that person is our Sect Leader, Duan Ao Zong! ”
As he said this, he had a look of reverence on his face, as if Duan Ao Zong was his religion.
Li Chen was instantly shocked on the spot. What did this old fellow say? Was the person inside Duan Aoyuan?
”Only special people are allowed to cultivate the Heaven's Stolen Fortune. Our sword sect has been passed down from generation to generation, and only one person is able to train in each sect. Back then, when the sect leader was fighting with an expert, she stirred up the heaven's destiny and was sealed here. ”I have been guarding the Misty Peak for many years. The sect head has communicated with me, so I know the secret of the Manifestation Art. There is only one person who can cultivate this technique, and if there is a second person, then the powerful person can directly absorb that person's energy and spiritual energy for their own use.”
”So you'll stay here and continuously send endless streams of life energy to that old bastard Duan Ao?”
Li Chen was greatly shocked in his heart and couldn't help but curse. How wicked people would be to waste the lives of others. To think that such arrogance was even the palm of a sect!
”Don't be rude to the Sect Leader!” A strong aura suddenly burst out from Gui Gu Zi's body.
Li Chen only felt as if his body had transformed into a small boat that was drifting endlessly in the rough sea. Just as he was breaking out in a cold sweat, Gui Gu Zi suddenly stopped his aura and coldly looked at Li Chen as he said, ”Alright, now that you know everything you want to know, it's time for you to die!”
Li Chen cried out in his heart that things were not looking good. He quickly stepped onto the steps of the [Floating Light Flash] and chose a route to escape.
Behind him, Gui Gu's face was filled with surprise. He let out a cold laugh and quickly chased after the middle-aged man.
Li Chen cursed in his heart. He was relying on the movement technique of the ”Floating Light Flash”. He didn't expect that Gui Gu Zi would effortlessly catch up to him. No wonder he said everything clearly to him.
He had cultivated for who knows how many years, but his strength was just too astonishing. Li Chen could only see a trembling finger on his shoulder.
What kind of hand was that?
Li Chen's shriveled finger was surrounded by dense clusters of surroundings. When he saw this, his heart tightened and he quickly turned around to face Ghost Valley.
There was not a single trace of emotion on Gui Gu Zi's face. It was as if Li Chen's life and death was nothing in his eyes.
Seeing that Li Chen had stopped, Gui Gu Zi expressionlessly looked at him and once again stretched out his withered hand.
Li Chen felt his scalp tighten. His body was immediately filled with spiritual energy, and in the air, a fist formed from spiritual energy shot towards the Ghost Valley.
This huge fist seemed to have the power to break through space as it flew towards the Ghost Valley. Li Chen saw that Ghost Valley's hand was wrapped in black mist, and the moment his fist touched the Ghost Valley's hand, it instantly turned into dust!
Li Chen's scalp immediately tensed up. It was as if a gust of wind had blown under his feet, and a sliver of oil instantly disappeared.
