Chapter 157 - Treasure Hunt

After killing the Li Qing, Feng Yun took his storage ring and burned his corpse.

The villagers happily cheer up after seeing the evil cultivator killed by the Feng Yun.

The entire village looked at Feng Yun as they were looking at the god, in their eyes Feng Yun was the god's messenger who came here to save their village.

The entire village dropped on the knees and kowtow to Feng Yun.

Feng Yun about to leave the village but at the time, the village head and his wife requested him to come to his house. To show their sincerity, they wanted to hold a small ceremony for Feng Yun.

Feng Yun was about to refuse but pondering for a moment he agreed.

In the night the entire village was celebrating in a happy mood, singing, dancing...

Feng Yun hunted down a few spirit beasts for the dinner enough to fill the village's appetite for ten days.

The four women also came out of the black pagoda to enjoy the celebration. The appearance of four women made the atmosphere of the village more lively.

In the room, Feng Yun was examining an ancient beast skin, this beast skin given by the village head.

According to the village head, this beast skin was a family heirloom passed down from their ancestors, the village head couldn't found out the secret of the beast skin, they only know that there was a treasure map hidden in it. He gifted it to Feng Yun after all Feng Yun was the savior of their small village.

Feng Yun checked the beast skin, from the outer appearance, it looked like a normal old beast skin nothing extraordinary. Frowning a little, Feng Yun used his divine sense to inspect the beast skin.

Suddenly, a map appeared on the beast skin that could only be read by the divine sense. At this time, Feng Yun understood that why the village head couldn't able to find the secret of the beast skin, the villagers were all mortals, did not possess any divine sense, they didn't even have a proper cultivation technique.

The location was shown in the beast skin in the depth of the mountain range, even the villagers have the map, they couldn't able reach the secret location with their strength.

After informing the women, Feng Yun went into the depth of the mountain range alone. It took two hours of time for Feng Yun to find the route of the map.

Feng Yun began to follow the route and the route on the beast skin was extremely strange as well. Along the way, Feng Yun encountered many spirit beasts. But their strength was high, most of them were Initial or Mid-Gold Core Realm Spirit Beasts.

As Feng Yun ran through the forest, rushing towards his destination. On the way, he met two Late-Gold Core Realm Spirit Beasts that wanted to ambush him. They were instantly killed by the Heavenly Slayer Sword.

Before long, Feng Yun had arrived at his destination. The destination was a cave with a faint trace of an array formation. Feng Yun tossed a strand of his spirit Qi in and the array formation appeared.

Feng Yun carefully examined it and discovered that it was only a defensive array. However, with his current strength, he might not able to break it. He could only place his hope on the Heavenly Slayer Sword to break the formation.

"Nine Heaven Sword Art." Taking out the Heavenly Slayer Sword, Feng Yun attack at the array formation, but a slight crack appeared in the array formation soon it started to repair itself.

"Nine Heaven Sword Force, Fourth Sword Form."

Feng Yun used his full force and attacked the array formation. The Heavenly Slayer Sword buzzed as Feng Yun's spirit Qi was sucked by the Heavenly Slayer Sword. In a blink of an eye, almost all of Feng Yun's spirit Qi devoured by the Heavenly Slayer Sword.

It was the first time when Feng Yun used the Forth Sword Form of the Nine Heaven Sword Art. An incomparable red sword light shot out from the Heavenly Slayer Sword, shattering the space the red sword beam collided against the array formation.

The red sword beam was so powerful that it could kill any ordinary initial-Earth Profound Cultivator instantly.

Boom!

The array formation started to collapse and with in a few seconds, the formation was destroyed.

Feng Yun entered the cave, there was no light in the cave, only darkness. A damp and moldy smell entered Feng Yun's nose, making him feel a little dizzy. He quickly used his spirit qi to isolate the smell.

Feng Yun put the beast skin back into his spatial ring and stretched out his left hand. The Demonic Flame appeared on his palm, illuminating the cave a bit.

Feng Yun began to walk around the cave and observe. At the top of the cave, there were quite a few oddly shaped stalactites.

The entrance to the cave was completely empty, and if one were to walk any further, they would see a terrifying scene. Human corpses littered the ground.

Because of how long it had been, all the corpses had turned into bones, and cracks covered the surface. A slight breeze brought by Feng Yun's arrival caused all the bones to crumble into the dust, covering the ground.

On both sides of the corpse, there were traces of raging Spiritual Qi. As time passed, the Spiritual QI had faded slightly. From the look of it, an intense battle had probably broken out.

Feng Yun walked over the pile of white bone dust and continued to observe the cave. In front of him was a place similar to a human's residence. There were stone tables, chairs, and a stone bed.

After looking around a little, Feng Yun didn't found anything special in the cave. There was only a stone door left side wall of the cave.

After opening the stone door, suddenly an array formation on the ground beneath Feng Yun's feet lit up and a white light enveloped Feng Yun.

"Um! Formation again." Feng Yun said.

Suddenly formless energy rushed into Feng Yun's mind, he immediately fell into an illusory realm.

Feng Yun stood within this illusory realm. Above his head, there were over ten thousand longswords, and among these longswords, contained an extremely tyrannical sword aura.

"What a terrifying sword aura."

Feng Yun muttered. Over ten thousand swords were simultaneously suspended in the air.

Just as Feng Yun finished speaking, tens of thousands of swords suddenly released rumbling sounds, and in the next moment, the entire sky changed color.

Immediately after, over ten thousand swords, like rain, stabbed into the ground heavily, surrounding Feng Yun in the center.

"This …" Feng Yun could feel that he must have trapped in an illusion formation but everything looking life-like.

Feng Yun closed his eyes and concentrated, trying to break through the illusion formation. Two have passed, but the illusion formation still didn't break, at this time, a hint of displeasure appeared between Feng Yun's brows. After these two hours of comprehension, he felt that this formation was profound and not something that could be broken through in a short period of time.

As Feng Yun trying hard to break the illusion formation, the Heavenly Slayer Sword trembled and an invisible aura came out from the sword and moved towards Feng Yun's.

When this aura rushed into Feng Yun's mind, his mind became cleared an instant. The white light also retracted into the formation.

Feng Yun slowly opened his mind, he once again appeared in the cave, after walking into the depth of the second cave.

The second cave was the size of ten feet, the luminous stones put in the walls, emitting gentle lights.

In the cave, there was a skeleton sitting on the praying mat. As Feng Yun came close to the corpse of the person, it immediately turned to dust.

"From the looks of it, it seems like it was a group of people that besieged him, yet they were all killed by him. However, he also could not able to live, even his achievements have not spread out for some reason. What a shame." Feng Yun sighed.

He started to observe the cave again. He did not believe that the others were here to draw a treasure map for fun.

Soon enough, Feng Yun noticed some words carved into the stone wall. He looked closely and discovered a few words, along with a Cultivation Technique.

I am called Fang Chen, a person from the Frost Cloud Dynasty's Yellow River City. I left home to train at the age of 20, and although my talent was mediocre, I thirsted for great power. Later on, I was fortunate enough to enter a secret realm and obtain a Heaven Ranked Cultivation Technique."
