Chapter 288: Wind and Thunder Barrier!

"Oh?" Du Shaoling's face darkened as he coldly stared at Ling Feng. "So, you're unwilling to lead the way?"

Instantly, an unparalleled sense of terror erupted once again among many of the students present. The martial art he cultivated, known as the Art of Sky-Swallowing Creation, emanated a domineering aura. Without even fighting, it could subdue the opponent's military might.

Ling Feng sneered disdainfully. His figure shook a bit, immediately dispelling the aura. "I can lead the way, but there are no free lunches in this world!"

"Goodness! Am I seeing things?"

The students of Zhenlong Academy looked at Ling Feng in disbelief. They were well aware of the terrifying aura created by Du Shaoling's Art of Sky-Swallowing Creation. A former vice-director of the academy once mentioned that Du Shaoling's aura could even affect experts in the Spiritual Element Realm to some extent.

Yet this aura, which could influence experts in the Spiritual Element Realm, failed to shake Ling Feng in the slightest.

Jun Moxie, Li Yunlong, and Chu Bingyun's eyes twitched. A martial practitioner who had only opened thirteen meridian gates, Ling Feng, was able to confront Du Shaoling's aura without fear. This Ling Feng was definitely not an easy target!

Du Shaoling was equally astonished. This lad could completely resist the pressure of his aura!

"Hmph!" Du Shaoling retracted his aura and took out a jade box from his dimensional ring, throwing it towards Ling Feng. "Kid, you're capable! Inside is a high-grade elemental crystal. Take it!"

Du Shaoling's compromise towards Ling Feng didn't mean he was afraid of him. In the face of such a grand opportunity as the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, a high-grade elemental crystal was insignificant.

Instead of wasting time outside, it was better to settle scores after entering the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder.

Ling Feng steadily caught the jade box, a slight curve forming at the corner of his mouth. A high-grade elemental crystal, worth tens of thousands of high-grade elemental stones, was indeed a considerable fortune.

"You can come along. Students of Tianwei Academy, I can lead you for free. As for the others..."

Ling Feng rubbed his fingers together and said casually, "Use your treasured items to impress me."

Ye Nanfeng gave Ling Feng a thumbs-up and laughed heartily. "Ling Feng, you're good at taking advantage of the situation!"

Ling Feng's face darkened as he gave Ye Nanfeng a disdainful glance. Is this called taking advantage of the situation?

This is clearly robbing the rich to help the poor!

The geniuses from the other three major academies felt like spitting blood in frustration. But if even Du Shaoling had handed over a high-grade elemental crystal, where did they stand?

One by one, they gritted their teeth and handed over materials for refining equivalent to high-grade elemental crystals, precious treasures, and some even directly gave Ling Feng a VIP card from the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce with 30 million crystal coins stored on it.

Of course, what surprised Ling Feng the most was when Chu Bingyun from Wenyuan Academy presented a Soul Flower.

This Soul Flower was a spiritual flower, but it contained spiritual power with a dark attribute that ordinary people couldn't utilize.

Chu Bingyun's intention in giving the Soul Flower was to disgust Ling Feng, but she didn't know that Ling Feng was a grandmaster alchemist. In his hands, this type of spiritual flower could unleash its maximum effect.

...

Following Ling Feng into the lake, they successfully avoided most of the dangers. After about half an hour, they finally found the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder.

Seeing the nine-story tall tower before them, everyone's eyes gleamed with excitement.

"The Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, haha! So this is the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder!"

What lies within?

Opportunity!

Strength!

With strength, wealth, beauties, and power will all come abundantly!

It was rumored that the reason for the once glorious history of the Yijian Sect was partly due to this Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder and another tower, the Sword Tower of Mythical Sky.

Both towers had nine floors. Each time you passed a floor, you had the opportunity to choose a treasure from that floor's treasure trove. It could be a martial art, a medicine, an ore, or a sword.

In any case, they were all treasures among treasures.

On the ninth floor of these two towers lay the secret of comprehending sword will.

Furthermore, it was rumored that when you passed the test of the ninth floor of the tower, there was a high probability of gaining the divine skills inheritance of the Yijian Sect. The Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder contained the Wind and Thunder Transformation divine skill, while the Sword Tower of Mythical Sky contained the Sky-Piercing Sword divine skill.

Who dared to say they were not tempted by the peerless divine skills created by the experts of the Yijian Sect?

"All right, I've brought you to the tower."

Ling Feng stepped back to join Ye Nanfeng and the others. "Next, it's about how to open this barrier in front of us."

The Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder was usually submerged in the lake, surrounded by an extremely solid wind and thunder barrier thatprevented the tower from being attacked by water pressure and the lake's demonic beasts. Even though the Yijian Sect was wiped out later, this barrier still remained.

Du Shaoling, Jun Moxie, and others circled around the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, occasionally taking out treasured artifacts to knock on the faint blue barrier, but it seemed they were at a loss.

"What are you guys scared of!?"

A burly student from Zhenlong Academy furrowed his eyebrows, shouted explosively, and drew out a giant crimson sword. He then roared, "Flame Dance Sunshine!"

Boom!

The raging fire true qi was extremely violent and had devastating power. It fiercely struck the barrier of the sword tower.

Suddenly, a blue light ring exploded from the edge of the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, and an immensely terrifying force spread out. The energy unleashed by the Zhenlong Academy student's Flame Dance Sunshine paled in comparison, like a candlelight against the brilliance of the sun.

In an instant, the student was hit head-on, unable to evade, and was pierced through by the light. His body disintegrated instantaneously, leaving nothing behind.

"That lunatic!"

People cursed loudly, retreating rapidly, afraid of even the slightest contact with the terrifying blue light.

Ling Feng's eyes twitched incessantly. This formidable force was even more terrifying than the outburst of the half-step emperor from the Tianmeng Chamber of Commerce that day!

Retreat!

Retreat!

Retreat again!

Everyone retreated frantically. The beautiful and dazzling blue light ring resembled the scythe of death, instantly causing death upon contact.

The light ring spread for thousands of meters before retracting, affecting several unsuspecting fifth-tier demonic beasts in the process.

Those massive demonic beasts didn't even know what had happened. They were swept away by the blue light without even being able to react, instantly turning into dust.

It wasn't until the light ring completely retracted that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Besides the culprit who died on the spot, five others died because their speed wasn't enough or their augmented qi shields were broken by the blue light, which allowed the qi of resentment from the lake water to invade their bodies, resulting in their bodies exploding.

Returning to the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder once again, everyone felt an immense heaviness in their hearts. Will we return empty-handed after entering the treasure mountain?
