Chapter 650: Chapter 140: The Master’s Arrival
“What did you say? That Martial Arts Master entered the Tianshui Tomb?”
Xiang Dongliang looked excitedly at the returning Zhu Fenghua.
Zhu Fenghua nodded silently.
“How is that possible?!”
Xiang Dongliang couldn’t accept this result at all.
The reason why only Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artists or Possession Stage Mages can generally enter the Dead Zone is that Martial Arts Masters and True Masters both possess divine skills.
Whether it’s the divine skills of the Dao Foundation or the magic artifact, entering the Dead Zone would trigger a conflict.
So if a Martial Arts Master or a True Master attempts to enter through the rift, the conflict would cause the rift to annihilate directly.
As such, not only would they fail to enter the Dead Zone, but they would also face life-threatening danger!
This experience has been verified with the lives of countless strong individuals in the past.
That’s why Xiang Dongliang couldn’t accept that a Martial Arts Master from the New Heaven Association could enter the Tianshui Tomb.
Knowing that the New Heaven Association might have intentions towards the Tianshui Tomb, he and Li Fei were still so confident because the Tianshui Tomb can only accommodate Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artists and Possession Stage Mages, and their numbers are limited.
In this situation, Li Fei is almost invincible within the Tianshui Tomb!
Yet now, a Martial Arts Master has entered.
“I saw the person jumping into the rift with my own eyes.”
Zhu Fenghua stated calmly.
“Professor Xiang, what we need to consider now is who to send in next.”
Wang Fengqing suddenly spoke.
She pointed to the rift on the ground: “I feel like this rift is becoming very unstable, I’m afraid not many more people can enter.”
Everyone’s gaze turned to the rift.
At this mont, the shape of the rift had returned to its original size, but the light kept flickering, and the edges were constantly deforming, visibly unstable.
This situation usually occurs when the rift is about to close.
This suggests that Wang Fengqing’s guess might be correct, that not many more people can enter through this rift.
“No wonder…”
Xiang Dongliang glanced at Zhu Fenghua.
He now understood why the New Heaven Association wanted to target Zhu Fenghua.
If Zhu Fenghua could still enter, he would definitely be a strong ally; he and Li Fei together might really have a chance to counter-attack their opponents!
But now that Zhu Fenghua couldn’t enter, sending in a couple of Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artists would be aningless against a Martial Arts Master.
Xiang Dongliang’s gaze swept over everyone present, and many avoided his eyes.
Shen Tuyue pressed her lips together.
With Zhu Fenghua ruled out, she was undoubtedly the most capable Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artist.
But she had previously faced You Ming, and that feeling of powerlessness was still fresh in her mory.
She knew that even if she entered, she wouldn’t be able to help.
Xiang Dongliang looked around, smiled, and then strode towards the rift.
“Professor Xiang!”
Wang Fengqing hurriedly called out to him, “Don’t be impulsive!”
Xiang Dongliang was only at the Fifth Tier of the Dao Foundation Stage, going in would be akin to courting death against a Martial Arts Master with Dual Divine Abilities.
“Li Fei is still a student at Wu’an University, as a professor at Wu’an, I can’t just sit back and do nothing.”
Xiang Dongliang smiled, “Fengqing, you don’t need to go in; we at Wu’an can’t put all our hopes into one basket. Return to the city imdiately and inform the president about what’s happening here.”
“Professor Xiang…”
Wang Fengqing pressed her lips, her raised hand sowhat powerless.
In reality, she knew that even if President Shi knew about this, it wouldn’t help.
The Dead Zone, ford by combining special geographic locations and the power of many high-grade exotic beasts, cannot simply be regarded as a dead Martial Arts Domain.
Even if Shi Caiming ca personally, it wouldn’t be a question of whether or not he could forcibly break the Dead Zone.
Even if it were broken, everything inside would be annihilated along with the Dead Zone.
Xiang Dongliang waved at her with a smile and then turned towards the rift.
With this step, he was ntally prepared not to return.
But, after all, he is a professor at Wu’an University.
“Professor Xiang.”
Shen Tuyue, who had been silent, suddenly called him, stepped forward, and handed him a small jade bottle:
“Inside are three Nirvana Pills, keep them with you, they might co in handy.”
Xiang Dongliang’s eyes lit up as he took the small jade bottle with both hands.
Wu’an University has no shortage of all sorts of high-grade healing and Qi Boosting Pills, but the Nirvana Pills are different.
This is a unique Healing Holy dicine from the Red Dust Pavilion, taking three years to make, three years to refine, and three years to mature.
Only one can be refined every nine years!
It’s said that just one pill can save a life!
Although it might not be that miraculous, this Healing Holy dicine is indeed very useful.
“Thank you, Miss Shen Tu, the kindness of the Red Dust Pavilion, we will rember it!”
Xiang Dongliang earnestly thanked Shen Tuyue, then leapt towards the rift, shouting:
“Xiang Dongliang of Wu’an University, here I co!”
Pop!
He landed firmly on the ground.
“…”
Xiang Dongliang stared blankly at his feet, then looked around at the equally dumbfounded crowd.
The rift… had disappeared.
Xiang Dongliang’s face flushed visibly red:
“Damn it!”
…
Feng Province, Provincial City.
Lu Mansion.
Lu Wenzheng, with his large belly, sat opposite Xu Jing in the Lake Heart Pavilion.
There were only the two of them in the pavilion, not even a servant to assist them.
Xu Jing ditated with his eyes closed, while Lu Wenzheng drank alone.
A mont later, a subordinate hurried over through the corridor, bowed, and entered the Lake Heart Pavilion:
“Family Head, we received news that three mbers of the New Heaven Association and Li Fei have entered the Tianshui Tomb, the others did not enter, and the rift has now closed.”
Xu Jing, who had been ditating, abruptly opened his eyes, and the teacup in Lu Wenzheng’s hand shook slightly.
“Is the news accurate?”
Lu Wenzheng put down the teacup and asked.
The visitor: “We can confirm it because the news has already been sent back to the Central Governnt.”
“Good, investigate further and report back.”
“Yes.”
The subordinate turned and left.
Lu Wenzheng turned to Xu Jing, picked up the wine pot on the table, and personally filled a cup for him:
“Grandmaster Xu, congratulations, your great revenge has been achieved.”
At this point, how could Lu Wenzheng not see that Xu Jing’s hatred for the Green-faced Ghost was unusual?
He guessed it was because of this woman, Wen Ke, that Xu Jing was determined to see the Green-faced Ghost dead.
Xu Jing curled his lips slightly, raised the wine glass, and lightly clinked it with Lu Wenzheng’s:
“Let’s wait for the results to co out before speaking.”
“Li Fei, alone, faced a Martial Arts Master with Dual Divine Abilities, besides a Tao Foundation Stage Peak Martial Artist and a Possession Stage Mage with high combat power. What chance is there for survival?”
Lu Wenzheng shook his head.
Xu Jing thought the sa, but unless the news of Li Fei’s death ca back, his Heart Demon could not be eradicated.
“This ti, the New Heaven Association seems to join hands with us to eliminate Li Fei, but in fact, they must have so sche for the Tianshui Tomb. Instead, they are reaping the benefits.”
Lu Wenzheng said.
It was with the effort of this Great Grandmaster Xu Jing that You Ming could enter the Tianshui Tomb.
The Tianshui Tomb is the grave of the Heavenly Water Beast, associated with the Dead Zone and Water Attribute Divine Abilities, while Xu Jing’s Martial Arts Domain is also based on Water Attribute Divine Skills.
The New Heaven Association borrowed part of the Martial Arts Domain from Xu Jing.
This is why the New Heaven Association sought cooperation with Lu Wenzheng and Xu Jing.
On the surface, they wanted to use the layout of the Tianshui Tomb to kill Li Fei, but Lu Wenzheng didn’t trust that the New Heaven Association was so honest.
He was sure that the Tianshui Tomb must contain sothing the other party was scheming for.
If Xu Jing wasn’t so intent on killing Li Fei, Lu Wenzheng might have bargained with the New Heaven Association to see if there was a chance to get a share of the spoils.
Unfortunately, Xu Jing’s desire to kill was too steadfast, and he agreed too quickly.
This made Lu Wenzheng sowhat puzzled; was it really just because of Wen Ke that Xu Jing was so eager to see Li Fei dead?
But now that Li Fei had fallen into certain death, he couldn’t be bothered to investigate further.
After tonight, Xu Jing would have his revenge, the Lu Family would be rid of a troubleso enemy, and all the bla would be borne by the New Heaven Association.
It could be said to be a win-win situation.
“Co, Grandmaster Xu, let’s finish this pot of wine tonight.”
Lu Wenzheng said with a smile.
…
At the sa ti, Datong Prefecture, Wu’an University.
Shi Caiming also received the news sent back by Wang Fengqing.
“Principal, do I need to make a trip?”
Qin Zhen stood beside Shi Caiming and asked.
His expression was sowhat complex because he knew that even if he rushed over now, it would already be too late.
Perhaps before he even arrived, the news of Li Fei’s death would have already spread.
Of course, there was a very small possibility that the New Heaven Association was not targeting Li Fei.
But…
Shi Caiming slowly stood up from his seat: “No need, stay at the school.”
“Principal?”
Qin Zhen rarely saw anger on Shi Caiming’s face.
Then he saw Shi Caiming soar into the air!
“It’s ti for this old man to stretch his muscles, lest so people think I’ve truly gotten old!”
Shi Caiming’s words echoed on the mountaintop, and his whole being transford into a dazzling teor, cutting across the night sky, quickly disappearing into the horizon.
Since the establishnt of Wuda, Shi Caiming had never left Datong Prefecture again.
This Great Grandmaster not only hadn’t engaged in combat for years, but he also seldom intervened in internal matters of Wuda, maintaining a very low presence.
Often, people even almost forgot that there was a Great Grandmaster in Datong Prefecture.
But tonight, the na Shi Caiming was destined to resonate throughout Feng Province, reminding the world anew!
As the teor swept across the sky, the sound of thunder followed, bringing with it an imnse sense of oppression like Heavenly Punishnt descending from above.
The higher the cultivation, the more one could comprehend the terror within!
The teor flew straight from Datong Prefecture towards the Provincial City of Feng Province, drawing a straight line in the night sky….
Lu Mansion.
Xu Jing was drinking with Lu Wenzheng, waiting for the news of Li Fei’s demise to return.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he stood up abruptly, looking into the distance.
“Grandmaster Xu?”
Lu Wenzheng looked at Xu Jing in astonishnt, rarely seeing him lose composure like this.
Before Xu Jing could speak, an elderly yet powerful voice rolled in like thunder from afar:
“Xu Jing——”
“Get out here!!!”
The voice echoed throughout the city.
Those who knew Xu Jing were all surprised.
Who dared to be so audacious to a Grandmaster, to a university president?
Even Lu Wenzheng, as a Governor, treated Xu Jing with respect.
But soon, people were shocked and frightened.
To show such disrespect to a Grandmaster could only an it was another Grandmaster!
To be so disrespectful to a university president, it was highly likely it was another president!
The teor streaked across the night sky of the Provincial City.
Traveling thousands of miles alone, Shi Caiming arrived at Feng Province’s Provincial City!
…
Requesting monthly tickets
Dao Foundation Stage Martial Artists, regardless of the opponent, Zhu Fenghua did not think Li Fei would be in danger.
But now a Martial Arts Master had gone in!
Zhu Fenghua had fought with You Ming and knew the power of this Dual Divine Abilities Master; without a breakthrough on the spot, he surely couldn’t defeat the opponent.
And Li Fei had not yet integrated all of the Implants, making a breakthrough on the spot impossible.
“Is there still a chance to et again?”
Zhu Fenghua looked at the large pit in the ground, falling into silence.
