I picked up the scattered attributes

"One reason is that very few people can enter the third level. Even in a hundred years, you might only encounter one." Qinglin shook her head and said seriously, "On the other hand, there seem to be some taboos in the third level, or perhaps, it can block the memories of the trial participants, so even those who have been to the third level cannot say what exactly is there."

Feng Xia frowned subconsciously.

I have this feeling... I'm a little reluctant to go.

Just then, Long Da's voice transmission came: "The third level! It must be the third level! If I'm not mistaken, the point where the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor's tomb and this Demon Emperor's tomb overlap should be in the third level!"

At the same time, another voice came from another direction and entered Feng Xia's ears: "Sect Leader Feng, if I am not mistaken, the great formation that cuts off the spiritual energy of heaven and earth should be in the third level!"

Can't you guys not be so uniform?

Feng Xia couldn't help but sigh and asked one last question:

"So, when do we leave?"

The group exchanged glances, then spoke in unison again:

"The sooner the better!"

……

Chapter 0170

Half a day later, everyone was ready to go and waited at the edge of the North View Cliff, all turning their gazes toward Feng Xia.

Sensing the gazes fixed on her, Feng Xia was taken aback: "You guys... you wouldn't be waiting for me, would you?"

Mo Lianque immediately nodded: "Sect Leader Feng is the strongest, so he should naturally be our leader."

Qinglin nodded her little head seriously: "I have no objection, meow."

Long Da, on the other hand, seemed much more grief-stricken. Having yet to be born, he immediately circled Qing Lin a few times upon hearing this, his voice filled with even more heartache: "My dear mother... you are a serpent demon, and you may one day transform into a dragon, but you are definitely not a cat!"

For a moment, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Even Feng Xia felt something was strange. He had asked Zhu Youniang in private if Qing Lin had eaten something bad, but the girl said that Qing Lin had neither eaten anything strange nor come into contact with any strange people.

If she really had to pick, the strangest person she had ever met was probably Feng Xia.

“That’s really strange.” Feng Xia stroked his chin thoughtfully, then said with certainty, “The source of the problem that made Qing Lin start meowing like a cat definitely isn’t with me…”

Thinking of this, he looked at Long Da again: "Long Da, I think... it might still be a problem with your secret technique."

Upon hearing this, Long Da was stunned, saying in disbelief, "This...this is impossible! I've practiced this secret technique before, and I've never seen anything like this before..."

"Let's observe further before making a decision. Now... let's set off!"

In the end, Feng Xia decided to put the matter aside for the time being.

Ultimately, this is a private matter for Long Da's family. He can ask about it, but there's no need for him to meddle.

Of course, the most important thing is...

The little girl is actually quite cute.

Except when he bullies Cherry Blossom Rain, he can act extremely fierce.

“However, this place is extremely far from the Demon Capital. Even if we fly at full speed, it will probably take more than a month…” At the critical moment, Feng Xia suddenly remembered something.

"I have already made preparations for the journey."

Fortunately, Mo Lianque waved his hand and revealed a mysterious smile. Then, the emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom led Feng Xia and the others to the gate of Tianjue Sect.

As a result, Feng Xia was stunned when she saw it.

"What's going on with the Heavenly Annihilation Sect?"

Looking at the Tianjue Sect, where an atmosphere of mourning permeated the entire place, Feng Xia wondered for a moment if he had come to the wrong place: "Why is everyone wearing mourning clothes?"

Zhu Youniang squeezed Feng Xia's fingers and whispered, "Xia, look at them, it's like the sect leader has died!"

Feng Xia was both amused and exasperated: "You Niang, although the relationship between Tianjue Sect and us isn't exactly good, and we even have considerable hatred towards them, it's still wrong to curse their sect leader. After all, even if he's going to die, he should die by our hand..."

Just then, someone from the Heavenly Annihilation Sect noticed Feng Xia and his group and cautiously emerged from the mountain gate. Upon recognizing the newcomers, the disciple burst into tears: "Sect Leader of Thousand Autumn Valley? Our sect leader has passed away... Are you here to visit us at a time like this to mock us?"

Kazeka: "...???"

Damn it, what's it to him!

However, Feng Xia was also stunned. The Heavenly Absolute Sect Master... was dead?

Before this, he had indeed considered whether to go and wipe out all the sects that had attacked him before...

The final conclusion is: yes, but no need.

He could certainly go to their doorstep and eliminate the opposing forces, but for the people of Qianqiu Valley, their hatred was not vented, and their anger was not quelled.

Recently, Qianqiu Valley has seen a surge in disciples breaking through to higher levels. This is partly due to the fact that the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Pattern Academy and the Yuan Dan Great Demon have objectively enhanced everyone's cultivation conditions.

On the other hand, almost everyone had a strong sense of resentment simmering in their chests!

The ruins of the mountain gate are right before my eyes, and the various attacks and suppressions are still vivid in my mind. If I could become stronger, strong enough to deal with all kinds of crises, perhaps then, Qianqiu Valley would not have fallen into an endless abyss.

—Bai Canghai is not the only one who wants to revive and strengthen his sect.

Bai Canghai's choice was to leave the protection of the sect and venture into a wider world, hoping that at some point in the future, a stronger and better version of himself could contribute to the sect.

The other disciples of Qianqiu Valley also made their own choices and decisions.

"This is really... so unexpected." After understanding the general situation, Feng Xia was both amused and exasperated. "I guess this is what they mean by 'those who do many evil deeds will surely perish'."

He shook his head and sighed for no apparent reason.

According to his understanding, the current leader of the Tianjue Sect is indeed a wise and powerful leader with high cultivation and many schemes. Since taking office, he has destroyed at least a dozen small sects, turning them into soil and nutrients for the Tianjue Sect to continue to grow and expand.

However, for those sects that were destroyed, the methods of the Heavenly Annihilation Sect Master were too cruel. He would often wipe out entire families, leaving rivers of blood and no room for mercy.

"The Heavenly Absolute Sect Master wanted to destroy the sect that the boy belonged to. In despair, the boy's parents pretended to surrender and attempted to assassinate the Heavenly Absolute Sect Master. In the end, they failed and were killed instead. The sect was also destroyed, and the boy became the Heavenly Absolute Sect Master's slave."

Recalling the mysterious person who gave him a hint at a crucial moment, Feng Xia had more or less figured it out.

Now, the Heavenly Absolute Sect Master has died at the hands of that young man.

Even though Feng Xia doesn't consider herself a believer in fate, she can't help but sigh at the cyclical nature of life when faced with such news.

“Your sect leader is dead, and I have no interest in wiping you out.” Feng Xia quickly shook his head. “Besides, it’s not like I came here to find you today.”

At this point, he turned to look at Mo Lianque.

The latter immediately coughed and snapped his fingers: "I am not here to destroy your sect, but to retrieve something that was entrusted to the Tianjue Sect."

Boom——

With his snap of his fingers, a loud bang suddenly came from deep within the Tianjue Sect's mountain gate.

In the next instant, a gleaming silver palace rose into the air. The superfluous external structure quickly peeled away, and when it finally arrived in front of Feng Xia and the others, it had transformed into a war chariot made entirely of stone. The chariot was square and upright, with mottled bloodstains all around, giving it a sense of ancient and desolate wilderness!

A smile finally appeared on Mo Lianque's face: "Sect Leader Feng, this chariot was originally entrusted to me by me..."

Oh no—

Before he could finish speaking, a scream came from within the Heavenly Annihilation Sect: "The Sect Master's mourning hall and coffin flew away together!"

Mo Lianque's expression suddenly became incredibly interesting.

……

Chapter 0171

"I was just feeling a little sorry for that Tianjue Sect Master."

Zhu Youniang leaned on Feng Xia's shoulder and whispered in his ear, "But now, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to sympathize with this guy."

Emperor Mo Lianque's expression became quite complex for a moment: "I seem to sense that there are still many unclaimed restrictions on the chariot..."

He entrusted this ancient king's chariot to the Heavenly Annihilation Sect, partly to leave a contingency plan, so that in a critical moment, he might be able to use the chariot's power to escape thousands of miles away in an instant.

Of course, fleeing thousands of miles away is only the worst-case scenario. As the ruler of a country, there are many times when he simply cannot escape.

However, even if he himself cannot escape, his descendants can ride in the ancient king's chariot and leave calmly when the crisis arrives.

Even though he was the emperor of the country, he still had some selfish motives.

Secondly, according to his judgment, the ancient king's chariot was once an extremely amazing treasure with powerful energy, but over the long years, it gradually lost its original spirituality and was left with only the most basic function of driving.

Within the Heavenly Gate lies a unique place called the "Weapon Refining Pool," which is said to be a naturally formed mine. Placing treasures within it over a long period can subtly enhance their power.

Mo Lianque's original intention was to use the power of the weapon-refining pool to restore the divine power of the ancient king's chariot.

"Looks like... this is another troublesome fellow!" Mo Lianque's face darkened, like the bottom of a pot that hadn't been wiped for centuries, and he twitched involuntarily a few times. "If I had arrived any later, this ancient king's chariot would probably have become the private property of that old man Tianjue!"

The unclaimed restrictions on the chariot must have been the work of the Heavenly Annihilation Sect Master.

If it weren't for the unexpected death of the Tianjue Sect Master, the Ancient King's Chariot would probably have had another master some time later. On the surface, it would be His Majesty the Emperor, but in reality, the one in control would have become the Tianjue Sect Master.

He practically spat out the words through gritted teeth: "I want to kill him!"

Feng Xia couldn't help but remind him, "He's already dead, you've even dug up his grave."

"This is not his grave! This is my war chariot!"

Mentioning this matter, Mo Lianque's face darkened even more: "That bastard transformed my chariot into his palace, and after he died, he even wanted to use my treasures to bury himself!"

He immediately waved his sleeve and strode into the chariot.

Before long, accompanied by a loud boom, a huge stone coffin suddenly flew out of the air and landed deep inside the Tianjue Sect's mountain gate. At the same time, Mo Lianque's cold voice rang out: "Go back and lie down!"

boom--
