Chapter 135 The Hidden Cave
The cave entrance now appears quite ordinary, lacking the strange light that Ye Feng had previously witnessed, and showing no particular unusual features whatsoever.

However, Ye Feng was well aware of the special nature of this cave entrance. He did not approach it rashly, as he did not believe that such a special entrance was without any danger; usually, extraordinary opportunities were accompanied by great risks.

Ye Feng observed the cave entrance from a distance. After a long time, Ye Feng did not notice any further unusual activity at the cave entrance.

Ye Feng had already surveyed the surrounding environment to a great extent. To his surprise, there were no magical beasts within a few thousand meters of the cave entrance.

"There must be something wrong!"

It's important to know that there are a large number of magical beasts in the Southern Wilderness, so they live in very densely. It's quite strange that there isn't a single magical beast to be seen within a range of several thousand meters. It feels very odd, as if all the magical beasts are deliberately avoiding this cave entrance.

"It seems we won't get any results from waiting. We have to go in and check it out," Ye Feng thought to himself.

Since Ye Feng arrived, no strange light has appeared at the cave entrance. Ye Feng couldn't observe anything from a distance, so he had to go inside to find out what was so special about the cave entrance.

Fortune favors the bold, and Ye Feng, having just been trapped in the Thirteen Formations of Taiyi, now desperately craved greater strength.

Especially after witnessing the Xuanlong, Ye Feng realized that there were many powerful people in this world, and the woman above the Xuanlong must be even more powerful.

Since Ye Feng's strength improved to the point of being comparable to a Spirit God Warrior, he had become somewhat arrogant. Only now did Ye Feng realize that his strength was still far from enough.

Ye Feng cautiously approached the cave entrance, moving very slowly as he remained vigilant against any unknown dangers that might arise in his surroundings.

However, no danger arrived, and Ye Feng easily reached the vicinity of the cave entrance.

Ye Feng noticed something strange: the closer he got to the cave entrance, the denser the spiritual energy seemed to become. Now that Ye Feng was near the cave entrance, the spiritual energy there was much denser than where he had been before.

"The spiritual energy here is so abundant. If martial artists cultivate here, their strength will probably increase much faster," Ye Feng thought to himself, sensing the spiritual energy of the world.

At the same time, Ye Feng frowned deeply because all of this was too abnormal. The rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth here should have made it a place for magical beasts to fight over, but there was no sign of magical beasts at all. Everything indicated that something was wrong here.

The moment Ye Feng approached the cave entrance, a strange change occurred. The once calm cave entrance suddenly became swept by a strong wind, and a huge pulling force sucked Ye Feng in, pulling him into the cave.

"not good."

When this malevolent wind grabbed Ye Feng, Ye Feng knew that something was wrong.

Ye Feng tried to break free from the shackles of the evil wind, but he found that the evil wind not only made him unable to move, but also sealed the true energy in his body, preventing him from exerting his true energy.

Everything happened too suddenly, catching Ye Feng completely off guard. At this moment, Ye Feng finally understood why there were no magical beasts around. It turned out that this cave entrance was so strange and dangerous that the magical beasts must have avoided it from afar.

Ye Feng tried his best to resist, but ultimately failed. He was pulled into the strange cave by this force.

At first, Ye Feng felt the force of the evil wind hitting his body, but he resisted with all his might and remained conscious. Later, as time went by, Ye Feng found that the cave was bottomless. Ye Feng did not know how long he had been flying. Under the force of the evil wind, Ye Feng briefly lost consciousness.

When Ye Feng woke up, he found that the surrounding scenery had changed strangely. He seemed to be in a space where he could not see any trace of the cave walls.

Looking up, Ye Feng discovered that there were still some stars in the sky, indicating that he was definitely not in the cave anymore.

The world illuminated by twinkling stars seemed incredibly beautiful, but when Ye Feng looked closely, everything around him suggested that this was no place of peace.

Ye Feng was standing amidst a pile of skeletons, including those of magical beasts and even humans. The number of skeletons was enormous; Ye Feng couldn't even count how many magical beasts and humans had perished here.

Upon seeing this scene, Ye Feng gasped. At this moment, Ye Feng finally understood why no magical beasts dared to approach this place. It was probably already one of the most dangerous places for magical beasts.

There were even a few human bones among them. Ye Feng guessed that these humans were unlucky souls who had wandered into this place by mistake, just like himself.

Ye Feng quickly put a defensive shield on himself; he didn't want to become one of these unlucky ones.

"This place is so strange, there must be something hidden here," Ye Feng thought to himself.

Just as Ye Feng was about to go around and observe the situation, he heard a deafening roar enter his mind.

With this roar, a giant dragon appeared before Ye Feng. This dragon was enormous, had no wings, but was entirely golden.

"Golden Dragon!" Ye Feng exclaimed in surprise. He hadn't expected to see two dragon creatures in such a short period of time. Dragons were extremely rare in this world.

In the blink of an eye, before Ye Feng could react, the suddenly appearing golden dragon swung its claws and attacked him.

"Damn it!" Ye Feng cursed. He suddenly retreated in an awkward posture, and the golden dragon's attack just passed in front of him. Ye Feng narrowly dodged the attack.

Now Ye Feng finally understood where all the skeletons around him came from; it turned out there was such a powerful being here.

"Roar"

Having missed its first attack, the golden dragon roared and charged at Ye Feng once more.

Ye Feng had already drawn his twin swords. He understood the situation: if he didn't kill the golden dragon, it seemed there was no way to get out of here.

Fortunately, although the Golden Dragon is also a dragon, it is a relatively weak race among dragons, far inferior to the Xuanlong that Ye Feng had seen before. The Golden Dragon's strength is at most comparable to that of a Spirit God Warrior.

Although the Golden Dragon is a relatively weak race, Ye Feng still dared not be careless and immediately took out his twin swords to deal with it.

The golden dragon once again swung its claws and attacked Ye Feng. Despite its enormous size, the golden dragon was not bulky at all and its charging speed was extremely fast.

Ye Feng seized the opportunity and used his Heavenly Wind Step to easily dodge the attack. Although the golden dragon was fast, it was still far slower than Ye Feng. With Ye Feng's ample preparation, it would be extremely difficult for the golden dragon to hit him.

Missing its first attack, the golden dragon roared and swung its other claw, continuing its fierce assault on Ye Feng.

As the golden dragon continued its attacks, Ye Feng dodged and weaved, avoiding each attack while gradually getting closer to the dragon's body.

"Double Blazing Slashes"

It would be unwise to confront the Golden Dragon's powerful claws head-on, and the Golden Dragon's golden body clearly indicated that it had strong defense. Ye Feng aimed his attack at the Golden Dragon's chest, directly targeting its relatively weak point.

The fiery energy whipped up by the Crimson Fire Sword slammed violently into the golden dragon's body.

The roar of the flames clearly caused the golden dragon pain, and it let out a furious roar.

However, the fire energy only caused a small wound to the golden dragon's body, and this damage was nothing to the golden dragon.

"That's insane," Ye Feng said. Looking at the wound, Ye Feng wasn't panicked; this situation was within his expectations. The golden dragon was frantically trying to break free and distance itself from Ye Feng, but Ye Feng wouldn't let it have its way. He had been staying close to the golden dragon the whole time.

Thunder Spirit Sword

Ye Feng shouted and thrust out the Thunder Spirit Sword, aiming at the wounded spot on the golden dragon.

The Thunder Spirit Sword easily pierced into the golden dragon's body, while Ye Feng poured a large amount of true energy into the Thunder Spirit Sword.

As Ye Feng poured his true energy into the Thunder Spirit Sword, lightning crackled and sparked on its surface, and a massive amount of lightning power surged within the golden dragon's body.

Even if the golden skin on the dragon's surface had a high level of defense, it could not stop the damage caused by this lightning power inside its body.

In just a short time, Jinlong suffered serious injuries, and his body was paralyzed by the power, rendering him unable to move.

"Roar." The golden dragon could still let out a terrifying roar, but its body was completely unresponsive.

After the roar, a golden energy ball appeared in the golden dragon's mouth, and this energy ball attacked in all directions in a overwhelming manner.

"boom"

The sound of the golden energy ball exploding continuously rang out, and even Ye Feng dared not underestimate the power of this explosion.

Ye Feng discovered that this golden energy ball not only had tremendous explosive power, but also possessed corrosive properties. A pile of bones on the ground was quickly corroded away by this golden energy, turning into water and disappearing completely.

Ye Feng was horrified to see this. Fortunately, he was hiding around the golden dragon's body and was not directly hit by the golden energy. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult to withstand it.

Fortunately, although this golden dragon was quite strong, it seemed to be not very intelligent, which gave Ye Feng an opportunity.

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Feng increased the power of the lightning in his hands again. Finally, the golden dragon could not resist the power of the lightning. Although it was not injured on the surface, the golden dragon was already covered with wounds inside. Finally, the golden dragon could not withstand the power and collapsed to the ground.

Drawing his Thunder Spirit Sword, Ye Feng looked triumphantly at the golden dragon he had just killed. Ye Feng had used the power of lightning to fight the golden dragon, knowing that the golden dragon was most afraid of lightning. In addition, Ye Feng used the Heavenly Wind Step as an aid, which is why he was able to do it so easily. He even saved himself from using martial arts techniques like Thunderfire Kill.

Ye Feng didn't want to waste a lot of his true energy here, not knowing what unknown dangers might lie ahead.

Sheathing his twin swords, Ye Feng's eyes gleamed as he looked at the golden dragon lying on the ground. Although this golden dragon wasn't a powerful dragon, it was still a dragon after all, and its entire body was a treasure. Even its golden shell alone was worth a lot of money.

Just as Ye Feng was about to dissect the golden dragon in front of him, the space around him suddenly distorted again, the golden dragon disappeared, and the natural stars vanished.

When Ye Feng realized what was happening, he found himself in yet another strange space, and he felt a sense of unease throughout his body.

"Could it be that I've been teleported to another place?" Ye Feng had heard of teleportation arrays before. It was said that the farther away the teleportation array was, the stronger this feeling of unease would be. If the distance was too far, the distortion of space could even kill a person.

The sky was devoid of stars, and there were no birdsong or fragrant flowers. The space Ye Feng arrived in this time seemed deathly silent, giving people a very oppressive feeling.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the void right in front of Ye Feng. The figure quickly became clearer and clearer, and finally stood in front of Ye Feng.

Ye Feng stared in surprise at the figure that had appeared, because he couldn't sense what kind of strength the figure possessed. In fact, Ye Feng felt that this person seemed to be just an ordinary person.

However, the level of this figure was not displayed in Ye Feng's system. The fact that it was not displayed meant that the level of this figure was definitely above his own, and he was definitely not just an ordinary person.

Gripping his sword, Ye Feng remained wary of the dangerous man before him.

“How rare! Finally, humans have come to this place,” the man said.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Ye Feng asked.

Although the man has not shown any hostility so far, Ye Feng is still very nervous. The space here is so strange that anyone would be nervous if they saw such a strange man.

"Who am I? I don't even remember my name anymore," the man said with a self-deprecating laugh. "As for where this is, this is my world, a world I created."

"The world you created?!" Ye Feng exclaimed in surprise.

Although this space gave people a deathly heavy feeling, making them feel very uncomfortable, only legendary figures who had become gods could create such a space. The fact that this world was created by this man made Ye Feng very surprised.

Seemingly noticing Ye Feng's confusion, the man continued, "Actually, this isn't entirely a world I created, but rather a world created by another version of myself. Tens of thousands of years ago, another version of myself cultivated to enlightenment and was said to be ascending to the God Realm. When he left, he left behind this world, and I am merely an avatar created by him at that time."

Ye Feng was deeply shocked. The God Realm was a world that Ye Feng could not understand at all. And based on this world, Ye Feng knew that he was definitely a very insignificant existence compared to that senior.

"I see." Now that he understood the extraordinary strength of the creator, Ye Feng was no longer surprised by such a world. At the same time, since it was not the man in front of him who created this world, Ye Feng felt at least a lot more at ease. Facing an enemy who could create a world, Ye Feng still lacked confidence.

The man continued, “You are the first martial artist to come here in tens of thousands of years. This place holds immense opportunities, but also great dangers. You must pass the trials to obtain powerful strength and treasures here, or you will die here forever.”

"I wonder what kind of power this is, and what kind of treasure this is?" Ye Feng asked.

"If you pass, you'll know; if you fail, it won't matter what you know," the man replied coldly. "Did you see the skeletons of those martial artists before? Those were the martial artists who couldn't even pass the initial test. This is the final fate of the weak. And among the martial artists who have been fortunate enough to enter this space, none have yet been able to pass the test."

"Not a single person has passed this test in tens of thousands of years?" Ye Feng gasped.

“That’s right. The power here can only be inherited by young martial artists who haven’t reached the Spirit God realm. Martial artists who have surpassed the Spirit Form realm have no chance of entering here. This place can be said to be the graveyard of the weak. If you are not prepared for battle, you will be no different from those skeletons. As for me, I will quietly wait here for the next possible successor.” The man said calmly.

"The graveyard of the weak," Ye Feng muttered to himself, a fierce fighting spirit blazing in his eyes. Since only spirit-form warriors could inherit this place, if he, with his immense strength, didn't even have a chance, how could he possibly challenge those powerful figures?

A strong person must have a domineering spirit of "I am the only one who can do it," otherwise they will never become a strong person.

"Enough talk, let's fight." Ye Feng gripped his twin swords, his fighting spirit reaching its peak. Ye Feng craved power and was determined to pursue it.

As the man observed the change in Ye Feng's demeanor, a glint flashed in his eyes. He clearly hadn't expected Ye Feng's fighting spirit to be so unwavering.

"Maybe this kid can make it, and then I can leave this godforsaken place," the man thought to himself.

"You are the first person in tens of thousands of years to participate in this life-or-death trial. Be careful, once you die, you will truly die forever. Good luck." As the man spoke, his body began to blur and disappeared from Ye Feng's sight.

After the man disappeared, seventy-two colorful array flags suddenly appeared in this strange world. The flags were planted in various locations on the ground, forming an encirclement that surrounded Ye Feng.

"A formation!" Ye Feng's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected to see a formation here again. Moreover, this formation flag, in terms of size, quantity, and even the energy contained within the flag itself, was much stronger than the Taiyi Thirteen Formations that Ye Feng had encountered before. Clearly, this was a much more powerful formation than the one before.

"Could this master be a master of formations?" Ye Feng thought in surprise.
