Feng Xia glanced at Yu Qianjue and asked calmly, his expression unchanged.

As the former territory of Lingyun Kingdom, Xuanwu Kingdom must hold great secrets, and it seems that Yu Qianjue also knows some of them.

"Another place similar to the Four Seas Barrier."

Yu Qianjue's expression was cold and stern. He scanned the surroundings and quickly locked onto the direction, then flew away with Feng Xia.

Various scenes rushed past the two of them.

At the same time, Yu Qianjue's calm and even voice came:

"Back then, in order to completely sever the connection between the Eastern Emperor and the Western Regions, those cowards established an unbreakable barrier around the Four Seas, with the Five Thunder Cauldron as its core."

"On the other hand, they also aggregated and modified Lingyun Kingdom's extensive teleportation network, ultimately building it into this..."

Boom——

Yu Qianjue suddenly fell from the sky and stomped hard on the ground.

Large swathes of earth and stone collapsed, revealing a vast underground space. Ancient, dark passageways crisscrossed the area, and the dilapidated murals and reliefs around the perimeter told tales of a glorious past.

“This place is…” Feng Xia couldn’t help but focus his mind.

Even he didn't know that such an underground space was hidden in the mountains outside Qianqiu Valley. Judging from its architectural style, it should be a product of the Lingyun era.

He also noticed that the stone wall, which should have been gray-black, was stained with many colorful patches, as if blood had seeped into the stone wall, dried and congealed, and finally mottled with the vicissitudes of time.

"This is an underground cave."

Yu Qianjue slowly uttered a few words: "Back then, the convergence point of all the teleportation networks in Lingyun Kingdom was also the hunting ground for those cowards on the Eastern Emperor Continent!"

"Hunting grounds!"

Feng Xia's pupils contracted.

He suddenly realized something, but still couldn't quite believe it, and managed to squeeze out a few words: "Who is hunting? And who... is being hunted?"

He actually already knew the answer.

However, the answer was too bloody and cruel for him to believe!

"Does this need to be said?"

Yu Qianjue took a deep breath and strode into the depths of the cave: "The hunters are naturally those cowards, and what is being hunted... is everything on this land!"

Feng Xia followed, her eyes shifting, her tone growing increasingly heavy: "So what's the reason? What is this reason?"

Since coming into this world, he has encountered all sorts of enemies.

Even Emperor Xuanwu, Mo Lianque, was once a formidable enemy of his.

These enemies often have different stances and their own reasons.

They fight for their positions, and they become enemies because of their positions.

"Reasons?" Yu Qianjue glanced at Feng Xia with a half-smile and said indifferently, "When people are hunting in autumn, do they still consider so many reasons?"

Autumn hunting?

Feng Xia had certainly heard of it.

Both on Earth before the time travel and in Xuanwu Kingdom after the time travel, there were similar autumn hunting activities.

It started as an activity to prepare for winter, but gradually evolved into a large-scale entertainment event.

but……

Hunting humans for entertainment?

It should be understood that the people on the Eastern Emperor Continent are not some alien race, but real humans who share the same origin as the humans of the Western Regions Continent, with the same bloodline and some common ancestors!

When did this happen?

Feng Xia's pupils contracted, and he let out a long breath before asking again, word by word.

Yu Qianjue said expressionlessly, "The largest one happened 695 years ago. Since then, it has been happening roughly once every hundred years."

"Six hundred and ninety-five years ago!" Feng Xia's pupils contracted again.

He clearly remembered that a mysterious battle had taken place 695 years ago. Chao Haisheng, the first leader of Qianqiu Valley, was seriously injured and left behind a Qianqiu Bell. Not long after, he passed away.

Around the same time, Emperor Xuanwu, the founding emperor of the Xuanwu Kingdom, passed away mysteriously, leaving behind an unsolved mystery.

There have been many debates and speculations about that period of time and that great battle.

Some believe that the fall of two powerful figures was due to a falling out between Qianqiu Valley and the imperial court, which led to a covert war between the two sides.

Some later analysts believe that a terrible enemy descended upon them, forcing them to fight to the death, which ultimately led to their untimely demise.

In addition, why did all the emperors of the Xuanwu Kingdom die young?

Where have the previous demon emperors gone?

Now it seems not so hard to guess!

"It turns out...that's it."

Feeling the oppressive dampness emanating from the cave, Feng Xia took a deep breath and slowly uttered a few words: "A hunt that happens once every hundred years...?"

"At this rate, there are less than five years left until the next hunt."

"No, to be precise, there are less than five years left at most."

Yu Qianjue shook his head and corrected Feng Xia's statement: "One hundred years is not a fixed number, but changes according to the actual situation. It generally will not become longer, but it may become shorter."

Feng Xia's gaze deepened.

For a moment, the two silently crept through the underground tunnel, broken stones scattered around their feet, the rustling sound creating an unsettling silence.

Yu Qianjue's expression changed first, and he exclaimed in a low voice, "...No! Someone has been here!"

"Has anyone been here?"

Feng Xia was stunned for a moment, then focused his attention and scanned his surroundings, immediately noticing something unusual.

In this long underground passage, a narrow, slender crack starts from where they came from and extends all the way to the deepest part in the distance!

Moreover, the traces of this crack are extremely new, and there is even a faint, sharp aura emanating from underground, which makes one's heart tremble.

“A powerful figure came here… and then unleashed a sword strike.”

Yu Qianjue spoke solemnly.

Feng Xia nodded and looked up at the top of the passage.

There, too, was a narrow crack that was extremely difficult to spot, filled with a faint, sharp sword intent.

"Then, the entire underground cave was cleaved open!"

……

Chapter 0465

"Who is it...?"

At this moment, even Yu Qianjue couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.

With a single sword strike, the incredibly hard rock wall was sliced ​​open, as if splitting heaven and earth, dividing the vast cavern in two!

"What terrifying swordsmanship!"

After a long silence, he took a deep breath and said in a solemn voice, "This person has probably reached the pinnacle of skill, achieving enlightenment through the sword..."

"I really want to beat him up..."

Feng Xia's voice, full of emotion, came from the side.

Yu Qianjue: "?"

When he makes that face, it's not because he has a problem, but because he thinks you have a problem!

From which spatial rift did you come up with this sentiment?

"To attain the Dao through the sword, could this person have already..."

Only then did Feng Xia belatedly exclaim in a serious tone, "Is he a god?"

"It shouldn't be yet, otherwise the entire underground cave would probably be gone."

Yu Qianjue observed carefully for a long time before shaking his head and denying it, saying, "However, the Dao principles he left here are indeed quite advanced. If he had the cultivation of the Divine Bridge Realm, plus being number one in swordsmanship, I'm afraid... he could really unleash the power of a god."

But obviously not.

Feng Xia nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought, and said, "It seems there's still a sliver of hope of beating this guy up..."

Yu Qianjue continued: "?"

He was now completely certain that no matter how earth-shattering Feng Xia's background was, or how terrifying his identity was... this kid must have something wrong with his head!

"Let's go ahead and take a look. The situation seems a little different from what we expected."

Before Yu Qianjue could speak, Feng Xia had already stood up leisurely and stepped deeper into the dark passageway.

As they moved forward, the torn sword mark could be seen continuing to spread deeper into the passageway.

“Generally speaking, someone who possesses such swordsmanship must be a true god of swordsmanship, but judging from the residual power at the scene, this person's cultivation level is probably no higher than the Dharma Aspect Realm…”

Yu Qianjue couldn't help but frown: "Could he be from the Eastern Emperor Continent? But that doesn't seem right. If he's from the Eastern Emperor Continent, why would he cleave his own hunting ground in two with a single sword strike?"
