112: Mysterious Dome, a thrilling moment

Along the way, Lin Feng, relying on his caution and strength, acquired several good spiritual materials, and even found a small pool of seven-colored spiritual spring water that could slowly heal injuries.

He walked tirelessly, and time seemed to lose its meaning. The surrounding scenery gradually became monotonous, and finally, he stepped into a strange region.

There was nothing here.

Along the way, the scenery subtly changed.

The cold, hard metal ground was gradually replaced by a warm, colorful, strange soil.

The sharp, piercing Metal Qi in the air seemed to be softened by an invisible force, transforming into a more vast, more majestic, yet inexplicably oppressive Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence.

Faint trickling water sounds came from afar, and a subtle, indescribable exotic scent lingered in his nostrils. Inhaling it into his lungs actually cleared his Sea of Consciousness by a few points, and even the sharp pain in his shoulder seemed to alleviate slightly.

However, beneath this tranquility, a danger even greater than that in the mining area lurked.

Lin Feng was horrified to discover that the deeper he went, his powerful Divine Sense, which was enough to cover more than ten li, was compressed sharply as if it had fallen into an invisible quagmire! When he left the mining area, he could still probe about a li, but now it was suppressed to less than a hundred meters from his body! And this suppressive force was continuously strengthening as he went deeper!

"What a strange place!"

Lin Feng's heart was solemn, and his speed involuntarily slowed down a few points. He circulated the Turtle Breath Qi Concealment Art and the Nurturing Spirit Art to their Peak, collecting all his Qi as much as possible, yet his perception was elevated to its Peak, vigilantly observing any disturbance around him.

Occasionally, he could see the figures of other Cultivators flash past in the distant seven-colored mist, each maintaining a great distance of caution, with no one approaching easily. An invisible tension permeated this splendid land.

Finally, after passing through a strange forest where the leaves were as clear as glazed glass, yet the branches were incredibly tough, his vision suddenly cleared.

A vast, boundless, mirror-like huge pool of water quietly appeared between Heaven and Earth. The pool water was not colorless, but presented a dreamy, shifting seven-colored hue, so deep that he couldn't see the bottom, as if it contained countless secrets and dangers.

Above the water, a faint, veil-like seven-colored mist wafted, breathtakingly beautiful, but also greatly obstructing his vision.

And the Divine Sense suppression here had reached an astonishing level! Lin Feng fully activated his Divine Sense, yet he could only barely clearly perceive movements within a twenty-meter radius around him!

Beyond this range, everything became blurry, as if covered by a thick veil.

"With Divine Sense so restricted and eyesight unable to reach far, this place is simply an excellent spot for ambushes and sneak attacks!"

Lin Feng's alarm grew even stronger. He dared not be careless in the slightest, moving slowly and carefully along the winding bank of the pool, using the cover of strange rocks on the shore, searching for any possible spiritual objects.

Several hours passed quietly in high tension. Although his movements were restricted, he still made some gains by virtue of his extraordinary eyesight and unusually keen perception of Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence. In the mud by the pool, he dug out several "Seven-Colored Enlightenment Stones" the size of pigeon eggs, cool to the touch, with internal light flowing like water ripples. After wearing them for a bit, he felt his thoughts become more agile.

In a hidden rock crevice, he discovered a "Golden Marrow Ganoderma" that looked like it was carved from gold and jade, emitting surging Qi and blood energy, which was an excellent auxiliary medicine for Cultivating the Ming Wang Purgatory Skill. He even picked up a few beautiful feathers, shimmering with a faint metallic luster, shed by some unknown spiritual bird, containing pure wind spiritual power.

These gains slightly boosted his spirits, but the injury on his shoulder and the continuous consumption of his Divine Sense made him feel a hint of fatigue.

Just as he was passing the edge of a huge, deep pit, as if formed by a meteorite impact from outside the sky, his gaze suddenly narrowed! In the center of the pit, a peculiar Spiritual Plant grew quietly. Three unusually colored leaves supported a fruit the size of a longan, imbued with three-colored mist, naturally formed with the Dao, and an exotic fragrance assailed his nostrils!

"Three-Colored Phoenix-Patterned Fruit!" Ecstasy instantly surged into his heart, but was immediately suppressed by deeper vigilance. Something abnormal must be afoot! How could such a spiritual object be without any protection around it?

He suppressed his impulse and released a Puppet to test it, which indeed drew out three ambushers who cooperated tacitly! A fierce battle erupted instantly!

The Ming Wang Purgatory Skill was fully activated, dark golden Qi and blood shot into the sky, and the Bright King's phantom flickered! He used his powerful physique to withstand attacks, and with exquisite foresight and ruthless counterattacks, he swiftly annihilated all three ambushers in a very short time! Although the entire process was brief, it was extremely perilous, fully demonstrating the domineering and cruel nature of a Body Cultivator in close combat.

After quickly cleaning up the battlefield and taking the enemies' Storage Pouches, he didn't even have time to examine the tempting Three-Colored Phoenix-Patterned Fruit before immediately leaving this troubled area and finding a hidden corner to take pills and recuperate.

'fallen phoenix grass...' Recalling the words of the Blade Cultivator before his death, Lin Feng's cold smile grew even wider.

This was clearly a clumsy but effective trap. Perhaps someone really did discover traces of fallen phoenix grass, but the spread of the news must have been orchestrated.

Was it to lure greedy people to kill each other? Or was it to open some kind of Restriction that required a large number of Cultivators' essence blood and souls? He didn't know, but that direction had been completely marked as a forbidden zone by him.

After resting for a moment and suppressing his injuries, Lin Feng chose a direction completely opposite to the rumored location of the fallen phoenix grass, continuing to explore deeper.

The further he went, the more monotonous and strange the surrounding scenery became.

The brilliant seven-colored mist gradually faded, replaced by a pure, hazy white light. The warm soil underfoot disappeared, becoming a smooth, mirror-like, incredibly hard glazed ground, reflecting the equally monotonous and dim sky above.

The vast Spiritual Pressure still existed, but it became neutral and peaceful, no longer having any elemental inclination, and at the same time, it brought an even stronger Divine Sense suppression.

Here, the sense of time and space became blurred. He didn't know how long he had walked, one day? Or two days? The surrounding scenery was almost unchanging, with only the endless glazed ground beneath his feet and the hazy white light in the distance.

Silence, deathly silence, even the sound of wind and water disappeared.

This absolute stillness and monotony, on the contrary, gave people immense psychological pressure, as if the whole world was left with only oneself.

If it weren't for the tenacious will forged by the Ming Wang Purgatory Skill and the composure brought by his powerful Divine Sense, ordinary Cultivators would probably have suffered mental collapse in this environment long ago.

Just as he was walking in this almost numb state, suddenly, the scene ahead subtly changed.

In the center of that seemingly endless glazed plain, an object abruptly entered his field of vision.

Was it a giant egg, about one person tall, perfectly round, and flawlessly smooth?

It stood quietly there, its material neither metal nor jade, presenting a warm, soft, white jade luster with inner light. Its surface was covered with naturally formed, complex and profound flame-like patterns, and these patterns were not static but slowly flowing, as if life was breathing within them.

It exuded an ancient, vast, and pure aura, yet it also carried an indescribable majesty and nobility. Compared to the absolutely dead silent environment around it, it seemed to be the only "life" in this emptiness.

Lin Feng's heart, without any warning, beat violently! Thump-thump! Thump-thump! Each beat, heavy as a drum, clearly echoed in the dead silent space, even making his own eardrums hum.

What horrified him even more was that, as his heart pounded wildly, that white jade-like giant egg seemed to produce some strange resonance!

The flowing flame patterns on the surface of the eggshell suddenly lit up! The internal seven-colored light flow rate instantly accelerated tenfold! The entire egg began to vibrate with an extremely subtle, yet life-filled rhythm!

Crack...
