201: Don’t be so conceited!

“Oh no, I actually ran into him!”

Hun Ya and Hun Li had vivid memories of the voice that came from the front.

The owner of that voice could once make them feel immense pressure with just a glance.

“Let’s split up and run. Try to reach the third level of the Heavenly Tomb. There, our Hun Clan ancestors who fell here reside…”

“Hmm, once we get there, even if all four of the Gu Clan gather together, we can still wipe them out…”

Hun Ya and Hun Li exchanged glances, then immediately split up, one to the left and one to the right, to escape.

“Struggling in vain!”

A cold laugh fell, and two giant palms abruptly formed from space, chasing after Hun Ya and Hun Li separately. The power of those palm prints was enough to crush even a Half-Saint into dust.

Let alone Hun Ya and Hun Li, who were only Dou Zuns.

“Ah!”

“Gu Fei, how dare you kill us? Our Clan’s elders will not let you off!”

“Killing two clowns, what can the Hun Clan do to me? Even if I kill Hun Feng, the Hun Clan can only grit their teeth and swallow it!”

A moment later, with the sound of two shrill screams, both of the Hun Clan members who came to participate in the Heavenly Tomb trial died here.

“Gu Fei?”

Behind, a slender green figure swept past rapidly. When the two palm prints appeared, she had already sensed something. Now, hearing the names Hun Ya and Hun Li shouted, her heart was filled with joy.

She accelerated and finally saw the figure she had been looking forward to for a long time in her heart.

“Gu Fei Big Brother, I knew you wouldn’t abandon me…”

Xun'er came to Gu Fei’s side extremely happily, her face beaming with a bright smile.

“It was always like this before. If anyone dared to make me angry or unhappy, you would always stand up for me. It’s still the same now!”

As Xun'er spoke, she began to recall past events of how Gu Fei had cared for her.

“Gu Fei Big Brother, you still care about me, don’t you?” Xun'er wanted to get closer to Gu Fei, taking the opportunity to hug him. This was a scene she had imagined for a long time in her heart.

“Stop being so self-important!”

“Slap!”

Gu Fei frowned and mercilessly slapped Xun'er’s hand away.

Listening to the crisp sound, Xun'er was stunned for a moment, looking at her reddened hand.

“If you don’t care about me, how could you coincidentally appear here and even help me kill Hun Ya and Hun Li?”

Xun'er said aggrievedly.

“These two had long harbored murderous intentions towards me. It’s only natural that I kill them!”

Gu Fei said calmly, then flicked his sleeve and left, not wanting to stay with this woman any longer.

“Gu Fei Big Brother, wait for me!”

Seeing this, Xun'er quickly followed, but her speed was too slow compared to Gu Fei’s, and she was soon left behind.

“Gu Fei Big Brother, you’re just saying one thing and meaning another. You’re clearly still worried about me, but you refuse to admit it!” Xun'er, exhausted, stopped to rest.

But she still felt that what happened just now was not a coincidence, but rather Gu Fei secretly paying attention to her, worried that she would be harmed.

“I must seize this opportunity!”

Xun'er’s gaze was firm as she continued to chase in the direction Gu Fei left, step by step… In the Ancient World, inside a grand hall.

Two black-robed figures cast a Seal, shielding themselves from external perception, and burst into laughter.

“Haha, after this, two Divine Grade Bloodline members of the Gu Clan will be completely lost in the Heavenly Tomb!”

“All the Gu Clan Prodigies of this generation will perish in the Heavenly Tomb. After a hundred years, our Hun Clan’s power will surpass the Gu Clan even more!”

These two were the Hun Clan elders who accompanied Hun Ya and Hun Li to the Ancient World.

At this time, only a few hours had passed in the outside world since the Heavenly Tomb opened.

These two, knowing the Hun Clan’s plan, had already begun to celebrate prematurely.

Because, twenty years ago, two Hun Clan Prodigies who entered the Heavenly Tomb encountered the energy bodies of two Hun Clan ancestors on the third level of the Heavenly Tomb.

The energy bodies formed by those two Hun Clan ancestors still possessed Dou Saint strength.

At that time, the Hun Clan Prodigies clearly remembered the locations of the two Hun Clan ancestors’ territories.

As long as Hun Ya and Hun Li could find their way there, resolving the Gu Clan members would be effortless.

It was a pity that while these two were celebrating happily, they did not realize that only a few hours had passed since the Heavenly Tomb opened.

Their Clan juniors, on whom they placed high hopes, had already turned into cold corpses… As time flowed, a month passed in that Heavenly Tomb space.

During that month, most of the Ancient Race Prodigies who participated in the Heavenly Tomb trial had only reached the Middle Stage of the first level.

This was because they were Cultivating as they traveled, and dealing with the obstructing energy bodies also required a considerable amount of time.

At this moment, Gu Fei had already arrived at the entrance to the second level. In front of him was a giant light screen descending from the sky.

Within the light screen, there was immense energy pressure. Those with Cultivation below a five-star Dou Zun would be utterly unable to enter.

This was also why most of the energy bodies on the first level were below five-star.

Gu Fei arrived here without any hesitation, slowly stepping into the light screen.

The distance of several hundred feet seemed somewhat long; Gu Fei took a full minute to walk through it.

After exiting the light screen, the immense pressure brought by the heaven and earth energy finally dissipated.

“Clan records state that the second level of this Heavenly Tomb is much smaller in scope than the first level. If all goes smoothly, I should be able to reach the entrance to the third level in less than a week…”

Upon reaching the second level, Gu Fei clearly felt that the energy concentration here was stronger than on the first level.

However, he still had no intention of stopping, but continued to walk deeper.

In the desolate world of this Heavenly Tomb, it was indeed greatly beneficial for Cultivation.

However, one had to endure a boredom several times stronger than the outside world.

Gu Fei traveled alone for four days. During these four days, the Rank of the energy bodies he encountered grew higher and higher, with some reaching eight-star strength.

On this day, a region filled with energy pressure appeared in front of Gu Fei.

It seemed that there were quite a few energy bodies in that region.

In this area, many seven-star and even eight-star energy bodies were distributed, and their positions looked as if they were guarding something.

“It’s been a month, and I can finally encounter something with consciousness!”

A smile appeared on Gu Fei’s face.

He knew that the energy bodies ahead were likely guarding a nine-star energy body.

Energy bodies that reached nine-star strength already possessed some intelligence. They were equivalent to the superiors among energy bodies, capable of easily controlling other energy bodies. This area now counted as its territory.

“A nine-star energy core can save half a month’s worth of Cultivation! It must not be wasted!”

Gu Fei slowly stepped into that region.

The surrounding energy bodies that approached would automatically disintegrate when they got close to his body.

Before long, in Gu Fei’s line of sight, a place filled with strangely shaped rocks appeared.

On one of the giant rocks, a figure clad in black iron armor sat cross-legged.

Beneath the black armor, a pair of eyes were hollow and indifferent, but if one looked closely, one could discover that this energy body possessed a more agile aura compared to those previously encountered.
