Chapter 245 Things Are Different Now
Meanwhile, Lin Fei and Jian Qing entered the Lesser Thousand World where the Three Emperors' Ruins were located.
This small world wasn't very large; otherwise, it wouldn't have been on the verge of collapse when attacked by the Demon Master and the Hidden Sword Elder. Looking up, one could see rolling mountains and towering forests.
"These three ancient emperors are indeed legendary figures above the Earth Immortal level." Seeing the scene before him, Lin Fei was even more certain of the unfathomable depth of the three ancient emperors' cultivation. To be able to create such a scene within a minor world was something even the Hidden Sword Elder, who was close to reaching the Earth Immortal level, could not do. Only an Earth Immortal, or even stronger, could accomplish this.
Among the mountains, there is a great mountain whose summit radiates red light, dyeing half the sky red.
"That mountain must be the site of the Three Sovereigns' ruins," Lin Fei said to Jian Qing. "Let's not delay, Brother Jian Qing, let's go there now!"
After saying that, the two leaped into the air and rushed towards the mountain with its red light soaring into the sky.
……
Lin Fei and Jian Qing landed at the foot of the mountain that was radiating a towering red light. Just as they were about to head up the mountain, a voice suddenly rang out behind them: "Boy, you have a path to heaven but you choose to barge into hell! Today you've fallen into my hands, and I'm going to punish you properly!"
Lin Fei was naturally very familiar with the owner of this voice; it was none other than Qin Zhongshan, the current leader of the younger generation of the Eight Evil Paths, known as the "Demon Emperor of Chaos"!
It seems the Hidden Sword Elder's guess was correct. After learning that someone had entered the Three Emperors' Ruins, the Demon Master immediately dispatched Qin Zhongshan, determined not to let the treasures of the Three Emperors' Ruins fall into the wrong hands. They relied on their greater familiarity with the environment of this Lesser Thousand World than Lin Fei, and arrived even earlier, already waiting for Lin Fei at the foot of the mountain.
Along with Qin Zhongshan came four other unorthodox experts at the Acupoint Realm. Lin Fei secretly sensed their cultivation levels; two had seven acupoints, two had six acupoints, and apart from Qin Zhongshan himself, none of them had opened the Heavenly Gate.
A master like Xue Bahuang didn't come in with Qin Zhongshan. It seems that neither the Demon Master nor Qin Zhongshan trusts Xue Bahuang.
The four men, along with Qin Zhongshan, formed a five-man group that surrounded Lin Fei and Jian Qing.
Qin Zhongshan looked at Lin Fei with an icy expression and sneered repeatedly: "Boy, you never thought you'd end up like this after repeatedly ruining my plans, did you?"
His plans in Xijiang County ultimately failed because of Lin Fei. In the Northern Han Kingdom, Lin Fei also stole the limelight, and Qin Zhongshan harbored resentment towards Lin Fei for a long time, considering him one of his most formidable enemies.
He stretched out a hand and said to Lin Fei, "Hand over the Xuanyuan Sword, then crawl out of here, and I might consider sparing your life."
"Brother Li, you go first, I'll hold them off here." Jian Qing suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of Lin Fei.
The reason the Hidden Sword Elder had Jian Qing accompany Lin Fei to the Three Emperors Ruins was to have Jian Qing help Lin Fei resolve some unnecessary troubles. Jian Qing was fully aware of this. Before Lin Fei could speak, he stepped forward.
"And what are you?" Qin Zhongshan glanced at Jian Qing with disdain. "Get out of my way! I don't want to dirty my hands by killing some nobody!"
Qin Zhongshan was indeed incredibly arrogant, and he certainly had the right to be. Ever since Liu Buhui ascended to the Dharma Aspect realm in one fell swoop, Qin Zhongshan had become the number one person in the world at the Acupoint realm. He didn't even consider anyone below the Dharma Aspect realm a threat.
Upon hearing this, Jian Qing remained silent and simply drew his longsword, but Lin Fei stopped him, saying, "Brother Jian Qing, there's no need to stoop to his level. Let me handle this myself."
Lin Fei pushed Jian Qing aside with one hand and took two steps forward: "Qin Zhongshan, if you want to deal with me, I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"
Lin Fei is no longer the same person he used to be. Having opened the gates of heaven and earth, he might not be so willing to fight Qin Zhongshan. Not to mention, he wields the Xuanyuan Sword, one of the Ten Divine Weapons, and the Benevolent Sword, a secret technique passed down by the Hidden Sword Elder. If they were to fight, the outcome would be uncertain.
Seeing that Lin Fei dared to look down on him, Qin Zhongshan was even more furious: "Good lad, long time no see, you've gotten more and more arrogant. Then let me see what you have to be so arrogant about?"
As soon as he finished speaking, dark clouds gathered in the sky, creating a feeling of impending doom, as if the heavens were enraged.
Commanding wind and rain is a skill possessed only by experts at the Dharma Aspect Realm. However, one can temporarily possess such abilities after opening the Heavenly Gate.
Seeing the dark clouds gathering overhead, Lin Fei simply smiled calmly: "If you want to make a move, I'll take it. There's no need for such intimidating tactics!"
As soon as Lin Fei finished speaking, a gust of wind blew by, dispersing all the dark clouds overhead.
"The power of heaven and earth?" Qin Zhongshan's expression changed upon seeing this: "You've also opened the gates of heaven and earth?"
It's only been a short time since we last met, yet Lin Fei can actually mobilize the power of heaven and earth, which means he has already opened the gateway to the mysteries of heaven and earth. This is something Qin Zhongshan simply cannot believe.
This cultivation speed is simply too fast! It would probably take a normal person nearly ten years to open the Heavenly Gate. Even Qin Zhongshan, who prides himself on his extraordinary talent, could never open the Heavenly Gate in such a short time. Not to mention, when he first met Lin Fei, he hadn't even formed his ancestral aperture between his eyebrows yet.
Such a terrifying cultivation speed, he's practically a monster!
"Was it the work of the Hidden Sword Elder?" Qin Zhongshan immediately thought of the name of the strongest person in the world. In the present world, he was probably the only one who could make someone's cultivation level increase at such a speed.
"You don't need to concern yourself with how my cultivation level improved," Lin Fei said with a smile. "If you want to fight, I'll take it."
As he spoke, Lin Fei held up two fingers and said to Qin Zhongshan, "Now I'll give you two choices. One is that we fight here at the foot of the mountain and decide who lives and dies. The other is that we go up the mountain together and whoever can get the treasure left behind by the Three Sovereigns of antiquity will have to rely on their own abilities."
After saying that, Lin Fei spread his hands, waiting for Qin Zhongshan's reply: "You decide for yourself!"
Qin Zhongshan's expression was uncertain as he pondered for a long time—he certainly wanted to deal with Lin Fei, but now that Lin Fei had opened the Heavenly Gate, defeating him would definitely not be something that could be done in a short time.
Moreover, Qin Zhongshan knew that even if he could defeat a master who had opened the gates of heaven and earth, he wouldn't be able to stop the opponent if they wanted to escape.
He recalled what the Demon Master had told him before he came. The main purpose this time was to obtain the treasures from the Three Emperors' Ruins, not to fight with Lin Fei here.
Qin Zhongshan thought for a long time before finally nodding with a serious face: "Alright, I will go up the mountain with you. Whoever can get the treasures from the Three Emperors' Ruins will have to rely on their own abilities!"
