Ling Feng did not trip up those guys behind him; opportunities like these don’t always go to those who arrive first. That stone house might not hold any opportunities, but rather potential dangers.
If they want to fight over it, let them take the lead.
At this moment, an experienced old Saint Level expert had already reached the stone house. After carefully surveying the surroundings, he extended his hand to push open the door.
However, just as his hand touched the door, it opened automatically, silently and quietly.
"The door is open!"
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, and then they saw a group of martial artists, their eyes flashing with a fierce light, each of them rushing madly into the stone house.
Equally frantic was that Despicable Donkey.
This fellow’s speed was no slower than anyone else’s, cursing as he went, fearing he’d miss the opportunity.
Ling Feng shook his head with a bitter smile. This Despicable Donkey, he feared, would one day die because of his greed.
Yeu Junyao, Xiao Hen, and Xuanyuan Yu were a bit calmer. Although they showed a hint of excitement, they did not act as fanatically as the others.
The four of them entered the stone house at the back of the crowd.
Inside, the space of the stone house was surprisingly large.
It appeared to be a storeroom, filled with rows of shelves, but they were all quite empty, leaving almost nothing.
Everyone widened their eyes since they didn’t want to have come all this way, at great cost, for no reward.
The First Layer was fully visible, so everyone immediately rushed to the Second Layer.
The Second Layer seemed to be a weapons repository, with many different kinds of weapons piled on the shelves.
But unfortunately, none were complete; they were all broken into seven or eight pieces, or even more smashed.
Even if they were Immortal Artifacts, being broken to such an extent rendered them utterly useless.
Ling Feng picked up a fragment and found these pieces were already heavily rusted, with no resilience left, rendering them completely devoid of any value for remelting.
Many around also tried to collect these fragments, but after picking up a few, they just shook their heads.
These fragments had no value; at best, they would serve as souvenirs.
Time is indeed the strongest force in this world. Even once Immortal Objects and Divine Objects, after the long passage of years, ultimately turn into a heap of scrap metal.
If it hasn’t yet, give it tens of thousands more years.
"Hey, there’s something!"
Yeu Junyao’s beautiful eyes flashed, spotting a bundle of silk or parchment in a corner, appearing to be a crumpled pile of waste paper casually discarded to one side.
Yet, something that hadn’t been annihilated over such long years, even "waste paper," likely held considerable value.
Quick-eyed and quick-handed, Ling Feng picked up the bundle just as Yeu Junyao exclaimed, casting her a glance. This woman was really thoughtless; with so many people around, her surprise could draw attention!
As the saying goes, silence profits the greatest; the more critical the moment, the more one should keep low-key.
Unfolding the silk, the material seemed to be the hide of some Demon, very flexible, roughly the size of a handkerchief, with some strange patterns on it, appearing to be Demons from the Ancient Era.
There were Bull Heads with Tiger bodies and Wolf Heads with Horse tails, all remarkably strange.
"Kid, hand over what you’re holding!"
At this moment, a burly man came over again, accompanied by his two henchmen.
From the start, this guy’s focus had been on Ling Feng. Upon hearing Yeu Junyao’s exclamation and seeing Ling Feng pick up the silk, he charged over immediately.
Ling Feng glanced at the burly man, eyes flashing with disdain, and coldly said, "Who do you think you are? You think I’d give it to you just because you say so?"
The burly man was almost driven mad with fury by Ling Feng, glaring at him with a cruel look, "Kid, I’ve tolerated you long enough; even before we entered the hall, I wanted to kill you!"
In his view, Ling Feng had thwarted his plans again and again, always obtaining huge benefits, which he couldn’t help but envy.
However, he did not know that he had overthought it.
Was Ling Feng intentionally opposing him?
Ha, from the beginning, Ling Feng never even considered him worth noting.
"Oh?"
Ling Feng shrugged, appearing indifferent, "Then why am I still standing here in one piece?"
The burly man’s eyes burned with anger, and his whole body surged with killing intent, "Alright, very well! Kid, today if I don’t cripple you, you can stop calling me Duan Tianliang!"
"You are Duan Tianliang?"
Ling Feng sized up the burly man, unable to resist asking.
"Hmph, you’ve heard of my name?"
The burly man’s face showed a hint of pride, "If you’re scared, obediently hand over the thing!"
"No." Ling Feng shook his head, "You’ve misunderstood. I just think you should change your surname to Mourn, so it suits you better to be called Mourn Tianliang!"
"Pfft!"
Hearing Ling Feng’s words, Yeu Junyao couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Haha, Mourn Tianliang, that’s quite a fitting name!"
"Kid, you’re seeking death!"
Duan Tianliang was utterly flustered and exasperated, "I’ll take your worthless life today!"
With an angry roar, Duan Tianliang’s aura surged as if transformed into a roaring fierce tiger, turning his right hand to strike at Ling Feng violently.
The Power of Saint surged; although Duan Tianliang had poor character, he was indeed a Saint Level expert.
Moreover, he had at least reached the Ninth Transition Realm Third Layer!
He knew Ling Feng was no ordinary Emperor Realm, or he wouldn’t have been able to withstand that Sword Qi, so he unleashed the Power of Saint, intending to crush Ling Feng in one move, leaving him beyond redemption.
"That kid! He’s courting death!"
"Hmph, good comprehension, but what a pity..."
Around them, those searching the room for opportunities shook their heads.
Ling Feng certainly shouldn’t have, absolutely shouldn’t have thoroughly angered that Duan Tianliang.
One was in the Ninth Transition Realm Third Layer while the other was only in the Heavenly Destiny Realm; the gap was too vast.
Moreover, Ling Feng actually wanted to counter relying on brute force, thinking he could oppose Duan Tianliang’s Power of Saint—a simple frog in a well!
The Power of Saint already aligns with worldly rules, an almost rule-like force; how could brute force break it?
Unless that brute force reached a level that could shatter the rules!
Could Ling Feng, a mere Emperor Realm, have such power?
Under everyone’s gaze, Ling Feng remained unafraid; Saint Level experts who fell to his hand weren’t just one or two.
Besides, after the Evil Valley expedition, his power had already transformed significantly. Coupled with experiencing the Heavenly Tribulation upon taking the Forbidden-breaking Pill, he reached the Physical Body Saint level.
He really didn’t regard ordinary Saint Level experts highly!
