Ling Tian Sword God

As Ling Chen and his group continued their journey, leaving the desolate mountain, about ten minutes later, seven or eight people in black suddenly appeared on the mountain peak, walking out into view.

”Didn’t expect to arrive a step late, that boy Ling Chen has already left.”

Leading the group was a lean old man, his lips were exceedingly thin, akin to a knife’s edge, exuding an exceedingly sharp feeling.

”Why is Elder Liu Qing so anxious? Judging by the situation here and the news we’ve obtained, that boy should not have escaped far, catching up with him shouldn’t be difficult.”

Beside him, a middle-aged man stepped forward with a grin; his face was sinister, giving an uneasy feeling.

If Ling Chen were here, he would certainly recognize this person. This middle-aged man was none other than the Liu Family member, Liu Feng, who previously wished to put him to death in Cloud Outland.

”This Ling Chen is immensely talented, his growth speed might surpass each day, leaving him be is a disaster,”

Liu Qing glanced at Liu Feng, ”Moreover, the Great Elder painstakingly persuaded the ancestors and the elderly meeting, convincing them to agree to eliminate Ling Chen immediately. Now the Great Elder orders me to take Ling Chen’s life within seven days, you say I can’t be anxious?”

”That’s true, but that boy won’t escape our grasp.”

Liu Feng nodded quickly. Ever since he let Ling Chen escape in Cloud Outland last time, he got plenty of punishment and criticism upon returning to the Liu Family. Originally, he had a chance to be favored by the Great Elder, all because he couldn’t completely solve Ling Chen.

This time, after so long, the Great Elder finally gave him another chance, letting him follow Elder Liu Qing here to thoroughly remove Ling Chen.

However, this action cannot fail again, Ling Chen will absolutely have no chance of survival. Because Liu Qing’s cultivation level had just recently broken through to the level of a Half-Saint.

With a Half-Saint taking action, even if Ling Chen’s luck is great, he will certainly die.

”Go! We must swiftly resolve this to avoid future trouble!”

Liu Qing stamped his foot and leapt onto a flying monster, the rest of the people in black followed immediately, swiftly disappearing into the sky.

The desolate mountain returned to tranquility once again.

However, this tranquility lasted just a moment, from the mountain peak, several figures suddenly appeared.

These people were likewise clad in night clothes, but their clothes leaned towards dim colors. The leader was a figure wrapped entirely in a grey robe, indistinguishable whether they were male or female.

”It seems the Great Elder has already convinced the ancestors and the elderly meeting, preparing to eliminate that Ling Chen.”

A grey-robed person stepped forward, spoke in a hoarse voice.

”Didn’t expect the Great Elder to be so invested in Ling Chen, even sending experts like Liu Qing, a Half-Saint. It seems taking Ling Chen’s life is inevitable this time.”

The leader lowered the hood to reveal an incredibly exquisite and enchanting young face. This woman was as if a captivating beauty; her long hair was dark red, adding an air of allure.

”What plans does the young lady have?”

The grey-robed person asked.

”No plans, I’m originally reluctant to interfere in family affairs, but this time it’s my father’s request. Besides, I also want to meet this cousin I’ve never met before. Whether he is a dragon or a phoenix.”

The red-haired woman curved her lips into a mischievous smile, then waved her jade hand, ”Go, follow them!”

”Yes!”

The group also leapt onto a flying monster’s back, rapidly chasing after Liu Xi and the others.

...

At this time, the group from the Green Mountain Association had already followed their map to another region.

”According to the map, a hundred miles ahead is a volcanic zone marked red, indicating immense danger. However, the greater the danger, the greater the reward.” Sima Linyuan opened the map, glanced at it, then set his sight straight ahead.

”Seeking wealth in peril, having come here, how could we miss it? What does a bit of danger matter.”

Ye Ming said with a laugh.

”Brother Ye is right; we’ve faced even greater dangers.”

Nobody despises treasures; in fact, resources are sometimes more important than talent. Why else do genius talents often emerge from large families, whereas it’s rare among common people? Although Ling Chen isn’t a disciple of a large family, he’s had numerous fortuitous encounters.

A hundred-mile distance is only a few minutes’ journey for the Green Mountain Association with their puppet ship.

The site was an enormous volcanic crater, the group stood poised above the crater, looking down, and could see the crater’s width was incredibly vast, up to a thousand meters wide. Such a wide crater, once it erupts, would surely be a cataclysmic event.

”In the volcano, not a blade of grass grows, but it doesn’t exclude the possibility of heavenly materials and earthly treasures of utmost yang and rigidity.”

Channeling True Qi to resist the surrounding heat, Sima Linyuan entered the crater’s interior.

The interior of the volcano was a massive space, with the crater above being a thousand meters wide, and its base extending several miles.

At a glance, the sight was filled with golden lava lakes, the surface of the lakes had many large black rocks, and on those rocks, some spirit grasses were growing, a few red spirit grass caught Ling Chen’s attention.

”It’s Divine Flame Grass, a rare herb for cultivating the True Essence of Fire.”

Ling Chen’s eyes gleamed, he swooped down and began picking Divine Flame Grass.

The others started to take action.

The quantity of Divine Flame Grass was limited, and as they gradually delved deeper into the crater, the temperature rose higher, Ling Chen dared not go further, as the hundreds of degrees might burn the body into ashes.

”Can’t go further.”

Having obtained three stalks of Divine Flame Grass, Ling Chen stopped, although the Divine Flame Grass was precious, there might be more of it deeper in the volcano, but one can’t sacrifice their life for treasures.

”Hold on, don’t rush to leave, there seems to be something down this volcano.”

As Ling Chen was about to leave, suddenly, the Human Emperor’s voice resonated in his mind.

”Something?”

Ling Chen paused, then his expression turned serious. Since the Human Emperor mentioned something, then there must be some extraordinary treasure here.

Yet the temperature is too high, unsure how to get in.

”Ling Chen, why stop here, hesitating to move forward?”

At this moment, Sima Linyuan approached.

”I have an intuition, there’s treasure beneath this volcano.”

Ling Chen said earnestly.

”Is that so?”

If it were anyone else, Sima Linyuan might ignore it, but since Ling Chen said so, he had to seriously consider it. As a peerless genius, Ling Chen’s intuition is not ordinary, perhaps there truly is extraordinary treasure below.
