The God of War.

Chapter 21 An unexpected gain

Lingxiao Palace

At this time, on a thousand-foot-wide flat ground in front of the main gate of Lingxiao Palace, there were more than a dozen corpses and skeletons lying in a disorderly manner. Most of these skeletons had already decayed and broken, and only a few were still in the shape they were in when they died, as if telling the story of the melee at that time.

The gate of Lingxiao Palace was wide open, there were no longer any restrictions, and anyone could enter and exit freely.

The three of them carefully avoided the skeletons on the ground and came to the gate of Lingxiao Palace. What they saw was the desolate hall in Lingxiao.

The entire Lingxiao Palace was turned upside down because of the fierce fighting that had taken place there. The ground and walls were covered with knife and sword marks. There were more than a dozen skeletons lying inside, in various shapes, with broken bodies, beheaded bodies, etc. It was obvious that those people had died extremely miserably.

Tianlin and Yang Qingqing looked at the scene inside with horror on their faces.

While the three of them were lamenting about the situation in the hall, a group of people came from another corridor. Judging from the clothes they were wearing, they were obviously from the Xuanyang Sect. When they saw Lin Fei and the other two, they quickly surrounded them.

"Tianlin! Why are you here?" At this time, a girl saw Tianlin, jumped to Tianlin with a smile, and asked with full of questions.

"I was here to complete a mission and happened to see you, so I came in. These are my friends, Lin Fei and Yang Qingqing." Tian Lin was afraid of causing misunderstanding, so he quickly introduced Lin Fei and Yang Qingqing to the girl.

"Tianyan from Xuanyang Sect, and also Tianlin's cousin." The girl named Tianyan quickly gave her name.

"Lin Fei, Yang Qingqing." Seeing that they were Tianlin's friends, Lin Fei also gave his name.

Then, Tianyan started chatting with Tianlin. When Tianyan saw that Tianlin had reached the sixth level of spiritual cultivation, Tianyan was almost shocked and screamed. Fortunately, she quickly covered her mouth with her hands and did not shout out.

A total of thirteen people from the Xuanyang Sect came. After several days of searching, they didn't gain much except for some ordinary tools of low quality and some elixirs.

Seeing that Lin Fei and Yang Qingqing were Tianlin's friends, those people did not make things difficult for Lin Fei and Yang Qingqing. They just looked at them strangely, then entered Lingxiao Palace and began looking for things everywhere.

Lin Fei estimated that there was nothing to find here, so he did not go in. He just sat at the gate with Yang Qingqing and looked at the Lingxiao Palace.

Suddenly, Lin Fei noticed a protruding object on the middle beam of Lingxiao. However, with so many people present, he did not move, and quickly looked away, then quietly watched them rummaging through the boxes.

He believed that no one discovered the things on it the last time the Heavenly Palace was unveiled, and no one would discover it this time either.

The entire Lingxiao Palace was once again covered in dust and corpses were scattered all over the ground. The Xuanyang Sect turned the Lingxiao Palace upside down.

However, there is no doubt that after searching through boxes and cabinets for several hours, the people from Xuanyang Sect did not get what they wanted. They thought there was nothing more to find here and left in disappointment soon.

Tianyan invited Tianlin to go back with them, but Tianlin made an excuse and did not go back with them.

Tianyan and Tianlin left reluctantly and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

After everyone had left, Lin Fei came to the center of Lingxiao Palace. Looking up, he saw an inconspicuous protrusion on the left side of the huge pillar in the middle of the hall. Logically, there should be no such protrusion in this place, so Lin Fei was sure that this must have been something placed there intentionally.

As for what it is, you have to pull it down to find out.

Lin Fei used the Flash Step and disappeared in front of Tianlin and Yang Qingqing. Yang Qingqing was amazed when she saw Lin Fei suddenly disappear.

When they entered the Three Swords Sect together, Yang Qingqing knew what Lin Fei was like at that time. It only took a short time for him to become so scary.

Flying up the beam, Lin Fei landed in front of the protruding object. A jade box lay quietly on the beam, covered with dust. Sweeping away the dust, picking up the jade box, Lin Fei jumped and returned to the ground.

There were no restrictions on the jade box, nor were there any runes engraved on it. It was just a smooth jade box that opened with a slight flick of the finger. A green jade slip and a roll of animal skin lay quietly in the jade box. After picking up the jade slip and injecting spiritual energy into it, a line of delicate text appeared in front of the three people.

I am about to die, how can I lament that I have no followers in my life? Now you and I have a destiny...

The whole text means that King Shuo had no disciples, so he hid the real treasure in a secret place, hoping that someone with a destiny would get it and become his disciple and pass on his legacy.

After Lin Fei finished speaking, the smile on his face became even more intense. He didn't expect that old man Shuo was still a scheming person. But Lin Fei had a master, and his master was still alive. How could he recognize an old man like you who had been dead for ten thousand years as his master?

When the animal skin was opened, a detailed map was revealed. The map recorded the location of the treasure in detail. Without hesitation, Lin Fei and the other two followed the markings on the map and walked towards the treasure.

At this time, it was already the seventh day since the opening of the Shuowang Heavenly Palace. Everyone had obtained something in this Heavenly Palace. Although there were no legendary treasures, there were still some high-level mortal items. However, the most chilling thing was that every hall had been plundered, and it was impossible to find real treasures. So, some people began to withdraw from the Heavenly Palace.

The Shuowang Palace has become an empty city.

Lin Fei and his two companions continued forward in the direction not indicated on the blueprint. They did not meet anyone along the way. Soon, they came to a mountain and there was no way forward.

The three of them looked at the map carefully and confirmed that they had not taken the wrong path. So there was only one possibility: the treasure might be under the mountain.

However, the map does not indicate how to enter the underground palace under the mountain. ?

Obviously, Old Man Shuo did not make obvious marks on the ground, because he knew that no one who came into the Heavenly Palace was a fool. As long as there was a little difference, they would get some information and find a way to open the treasure, and there would be no chance for others to come after them.

Therefore, Old Man Shuo simply did not make any marks. Only those who had obtained this map knew that there was indeed a treasure here, and it was under the mountain.

Lin Fei and the other two began to search around the mountain for an entrance or exit. Knowing that there was something under the mountain, the three of them were very careful and did not leave out a single stone.

The whole mountain was not very big. In less than an hour, the three people met up and shook their heads at each other.

Lin Fei frowned. What was the problem? Was this just a game played by old man Shuo?

Impossible, Lin Fei quickly rejected this idea. A dying person would not play with such things. What's more, this person is a great god, his words are law, he would never play such childish tricks.

So, what's the problem?

Lin Fei cast his eyes around the mountain. Suddenly, he saw a stone standing upright about ten feet away from the southeast side of the mountain. Under the stone, there were four stones around it. The stones were surrounded by weeds. If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was just a decoration of the grass. If you look carefully, the four stones on the four sides of the upright stone are arranged in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northeast. The stone on the north is slightly tilted, which corresponds to the sentence on the gate of the Heavenly Palace: "Nature is free from disasters because of greed, and if you don't believe in cause and effect, it will always be empty."

Is this telling people something?

Lin Fei came to the stones and gently straightened the stone on the north side. At this moment, a lush grass ten feet away from the pile of stones began to slowly move away, revealing a hole that could accommodate about one and a half people.

"Go in!" Lin Fei shouted to Tianlin and Yang Qingqing. Soon the three of them disappeared at the cave entrance. Then, the cave entrance returned to its previous appearance, and there was no sign that anyone had been here.

The cave extended all the way to the bottom of the mountain. The cave was inlaid with many star-shaped stones, so there was no need to worry about not being able to see the road clearly. The three of them walked about two hundred meters and came to a door. The door was not closed, but just ajar, and it opened with a gentle push.

When they walked into the door, the first feeling of the three people was to be stunned and at a loss as to what to do.

Wow! This is so scary!

The whole room is about three meters square, with iron shelves on all four sides. On the shelves are rows of jade boxes, jade bottles, earth-level and heaven-level treasures, swords, various skills, formations, and books on alchemy and equipment. The most common are spiritual medicines and fruits, some a thousand years old and some five thousand years old. If these things were brought to the ground, each one would be a treasure that could shock the entire continent.

"Take all these things away!"

Lin Fei said to the two of them, "After you leave, don't tell anyone, including your parents.

Tianlin and Yang Qingqing nodded quickly, but the things they took were all things that were beneficial to themselves, and they did not take anything else.

First, they believed in Lin Fei, and they knew that Lin Fei would definitely give the products to others when needed. Second, they had already regarded Lin Fei as their true confidant.

Lin Fei was not polite. Since he was already here, even if he couldn't be your successor, he could at least allow the treasures you had hidden to flourish outside.

Except for Tianlin's space ring which was a little small, Yang Qingqing's and Lin Fei's space rings were too big, especially Lin Fei's, which was made by Liu Wujiu himself for Lin Fei, and the space inside could accommodate three or four such secret rooms. So, soon, the things in the room disappeared.

The three of them smiled at each other, then returned to the ground along the passage they came in through.

The major sects and family forces that had originally held great hopes withdrew from the Shuowang Palace in twos and threes. This time, although the City Lord's Mansion prepared a huge force, the gains were very small, and in the end they had to evacuate the Shuowang Palace in fear.

However, the biggest gain from the birth of the Heavenly Palace this time was Lin Fei. Not to mention the four heaven-defying leafless seven-seeded golden heart lotuses, even the things in the secret room were enough for him to squander for a while.

But compared to his extraordinary Dantian and the need for spiritual energy, these things are far from enough.

Thinking that each realm now requires a hundred times more spiritual energy than ordinary people, Lin Fei couldn't laugh anymore.

The three of them came outside, luckily, the people from the Three Swords Sect were still waiting for Yang Qingqingguo outside.

When Elder Yu saw Yang Qingqing, his gloomy face suddenly brightened up. In his words, if Yang Qingqing didn't come out, he would have to go into the Heavenly Palace alone to look for her. The Three Sword Sect could lose others, but Yang Qingqing must not be lost. She was Elder Jiang's treasure and the treasure of the entire Three Sword Sect.

If he went back like that, he couldn't believe that Elder Jiang wouldn't cripple him, Yu Yangming.

He knew Elder Jiang's character. That woman was very vicious!

Yang Qingqing reluctantly left Lin Fei and returned to the team.

After explaining things to Yang Qingqing, Lin Fei and Tian Lin did not delay any further, because he still had three tasks to complete. Now ten days had passed, and the originally ample time had become a little tight.

Lin Fei and Tian Lin left the Heavenly Palace and began to look for the traces of the Flame Wolf on the outskirts. Fortunately, the Flame Wolf did not completely leave the place, but was just wandering around in groups of three or two on the outskirts, which made it very convenient for Lin Fei and Tian Lin.

When night fell, Lin Fei and Tian Lin restrained their breath and lay quietly in the place where the fire wolves passed. Tian Lin was now at the sixth level of spiritual realm and Lin Fei was at the seventh level of foundation building, so they decided to kill the two fire wolves cleanly and directly on the road and then leave for the next mission.

In the middle of the night, about four or five Flame Wolves entered the sight of Lin Fei and Tian Lin. From the light in their eyes, three of them had already formed beast cores. Lin Fei and Tian Lin exchanged glances and decided to start with these five Flame Wolves and kill them without alerting the other Flame Wolves.

The two agreed that Lin Fei would deal with one Flame Wolf that had already formed a beast core, and then two Flame Wolfs without beast cores, while Tian Lin would be responsible for the two Flame Wolfs with beast cores. The duration was stipulated to be within three breaths.

This requires both of them to be quick, accurate, and ruthless, and to finish off the prey in their hands in a very short time. Otherwise, if they attract the leader wolf, the consequences will be very serious.

The five fire wolves naturally had no idea that there was such a terrifying hunter hiding in front of them. They continued to move forward while observing. This was where they lived, and they didn't have to worry about anything daring to attack them.

At this time, in a cave two hundred feet away from them, a huge fire wolf was lying on the dry ground of the cave, enjoying the service of two female wolves, but its eyes looked outside from time to time, and its agile ears stood up from time to time, listening to the movement outside.

It is the decision-maker and ruler of the entire wolf pack, so it must keep an eye on its subordinates.

During these few days, the Heavenly Palace was opened, and humans' forced entry caused it to lose many of its subjects. It has always been resentful towards humans in its heart, and it can't wait to rush into humans' residences and kill them all.

However, its strength does not allow it to do so. It can only lurk and wait for the opportunity, for humans to enter its territory again, and for itself to become stronger.

When a demon beast becomes powerful enough, it will become intelligent and thus be upgraded to a spirit beast.

The spiritual beast is equivalent to the human king level, plus its strong physique and body instinctive defense are beyond human, so even the early stage of the king level is equivalent to the middle stage of the human king level.

Therefore, while it was lying in wait, its intelligence had already enabled it to think and to have its own goals and direction.

Lin Fei and Tian Lin had never thought about this level. Their current mission was to hunt down two fire wolves and complete their task. They had never thought that somewhere, there was a pair of eyes watching everything here.

The five fire wolves soon came to the place where Lin Fei and Tian Lin were hiding. When they were still about five meters away, Lin Fei and Tian Lin exchanged glances with each other, then disappeared from their hiding place like lightning, and then appeared above the heads of the fire wolves. The swords infused with spiritual energy flashed dazzling light, like a flash of lightning, cutting towards the necks of the two fire wolves.

The five fire wolves had never expected that disaster would come out of nowhere. When they saw the sword light coming like lightning, panic flashed in their eyes and they tried to avoid it. However, their speed was far slower than that of Lin Fei and Tian Lin. With a click, two wolf heads fell to the ground. Lin Fei and Tian Lin then put the fire wolves they had killed into their storage rings.

The other three fire wolves were stunned when they saw the hunter suddenly appear, and then they ran away wildly, howling.

Lin Fei and Tian Lin had completed their mission, and it was impossible for them to hunt the other three. They were about to retreat, but at this moment, a burst of spiritual pressure suddenly came from the left. The spiritual energy circulating in their hearts suddenly stopped, and they felt a sense of crisis in their hearts.

Then, the flow of spiritual energy paused for a moment, and a huge monster covered with red hair and weighing at least two thousand pounds appeared in front of them.
