"An Emperor-level Sword Tomb..."

Ling Feng quickly walked forward and crouched down, "Esteemed Senior, please don’t be offended."

After speaking, Ling Feng directly activated his Sword Intent, merging his Sword Intent with the Sword Stele in front of the Sword Tomb.

According to Despicable Donkey, if recognized, the treasure within the Sword Tomb will automatically appear.

Of course, the prerequisite is that there is a treasure inside.

Not long after, the Sword Tomb indeed opened, and Ling Feng took out an Imprint Crystal Stone, which seemed to be a Cultivation Technique or Martial Technique.

"Turns out it’s an Ancient Sword Technique!"

Ling Feng quickly scanned the information within the jade, discovering it was a Fire Attribute Ancient Sword Technique, the Great Sun Burning Heaven Sword.

"No wonder it’s a swordsmanship from the Ancient Era; even a casual technique reaches the level of Great Sun True Power."

Ling Feng squinted his eyes; Shi Haoxuan’s power lay in his Great Sun True Power, but Ling Feng was confident that if he cultivated this swordsmanship, within half a year, his Great Sun True Power would surpass Shi Haoxuan.

By then, Shi Haoxuan might truly question his life.

"It’s a pity it’s not a treasure that enhances Sword Intent."

Ling Feng stored the jade carefully. He wasn’t particularly lacking in swordsmanship or Martial Techniques, given the ability of the Emperor’s Eye. Unless it’s Martial Techniques with Bloodline inheritance, he could easily replicate them.

Nonetheless, this Great Sun Burning Heaven Sword could be worth as much as a Saint Level Cultivation Technique on the outside!

"Onward, onward!"

Ling Feng, in high spirits with a sword inheritance, stored the treasure in the Spirit Storage Ring and continued deeper.

...

As time ticked by, Ling Feng found another Sword Tomb, an Emperor-level Sword Tomb, which, upon opening, revealed nothing.

According to Despicable Donkey, even Saint-level Sword Tombs couldn’t guarantee treasures, due to centuries of sporadic openings in the long passage of time.

"Hey, there’s another Saint-level Sword Tomb ahead, likely containing something good!"

Despicable Donkey exclaimed, immediately alerting Ling Feng.

"Saint-level?"

Ling Feng’s eyes brightened; it was his first encounter with a Saint-level Sword Tomb!

It’s assured the treasure left by Ancient Great Saint experts would be far superior to the Great Sun Burning Heaven Sword he previously acquired!

"Hope it’s a useful treasure!"

Ling Feng hurried forward, preparing to open the Sword Tomb.

"Hold on."

Just as Ling Feng was about to open the Sword Tomb, a stern voice rang out.

Then, swoosh swoosh, several sounds of cutting through wind occurred, about four or five Martial Artists flew over.

The leader was Wang Bodang.

Though Wang Bodang hadn’t gathered many allies, those beside him were fellow disciples, their cooperative relationship stronger than mere temporary alliances created for mutual gain.

Moreover, among these five, Wang Bodang himself was at the Fourth Level of the Heavenly Destiny Realm, while the other four were at the Third Level.

Such a lineup was terrifying, not intimidated by any rival factions. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The five soon surrounded Ling Feng and the Sword Tomb, clearly intending to outright rob him.

"Heh, heh, we meet again, native of the Eastern Spirit Domain!"

Wang Bodang glanced at Ling Feng, sneering, "I, Wang Bodang, claim this Sword Tomb. If you’re smart, leave obediently, or I won’t hesitate to add another Dead Soul beneath my Iron Mountain Sword."

Ling Feng squinted his eyes, "So this is a threat?"

"Think as you wish." Wang Bodang coldly smiled, "A strongman never explains to a weakling."

"Haha, seems this kid prefers treasure over life!"

A skinny man behind Wang Bodang grinned.

Ling Feng took a deep breath, surveyed Wang Bodang, and despite the unwillingness, chose temporary restraint.

Wang Bodang’s aura was currently stronger than Shi Haoxuan’s, plus he had four henchmen of comparable strength to Shi Haoxuan.

Being surrounded by these five meant little chance to counter-attack successfully.

Sure, he could opt for Chaos Rebirth, but the cost was too great, causing a drop in a Great Realm altogether!

Being at the Extreme Human Emperor level, falling back to King-level could take ages to climb back up.

For a treasure within a Saint-level Sword Tomb, there was no need for rash confrontation.

Moreover, with the treasure in Wang Bodang’s possession now, it didn’t guarantee it’ll be with him upon leaving the Xuanjian Underground Palace.

Wang Bodang’s name was already on Ling Feng’s must-kill list!

The fourth level of the Xuanjian Underground Palace is abundant with opportunities and treasures!

Ling Feng believed, with short-term effort, his strength could improve several tiers to decisively crush Wang Bodang!

Without a word, Ling Feng merely glanced at the five, memorizing their appearances, then quickly retreated.

"Heh, heh, weaklings remain weaklings, lacking the slightest backbone."

Wang Bodang and his crew watched as Ling Feng swiftly retreated, laughing scornfully, further underestimating him.

"The Eastern Spirit Domain people are merely spineless, no wonder they’ve always been the weakest region of the Xuanling Continent."

The skinny man grinned, eyeing the Saint-level Sword Tomb, chuckling, "Senior Brother Wang, hurry and check it out for treasures!"

Wang Bodang nodded, activating his Sword Intent, pressing onto the stele.

...

"Haha, Ling Feng, aren’t you vexed? Furious?"

Despicable Donkey, eyebrows dancing, looked schadenfreudistically at Ling Feng, whose fate was stolen.

"What’s there to be mad about."

Ling Feng shrugged, "I lost just a tiny bit of opportunity, but they will lose their lives."

In Ling Feng’s eyes, a cold glint flashed.

In the Martial Arts World, the weak are prey to the strong, everything is dependent on one’s capability; this little episode wouldn’t shake Ling Feng’s martial heart.
