635: The ancient stone coffin is in the cave

Rip!

The long spear thrust out, black light flickered, destroying everything in its path. A whooshing sound echoed, and Wu Gui's sword qi was instantly dispersed.

The long spear, like a flash of lightning, instantly pierced towards Wu Gui's neck at an extremely tricky angle. Its speed was incredibly fast and ferociously ruthless.

...

Wu Gui's pupils contracted. He instinctively tried to parry with his sword, but it was too late. The speed of this spear thrust exceeded his expectations.

Just as the long spear was only a millimeter from his neck, it stopped. The chilling aura caused a faint red line to appear on his neck.

This scene made Wu Gui's hair stand on end. He simply couldn't block Ling Donglai's spear.

If this spear had pierced his head, it could have completely shattered his soul.

He knew he had lost!

Earlier, when Ling Donglai said he was afraid Wu Gui couldn't block a single move, he thought the other party was arrogant. Now it seemed Ling Donglai was simply stating the truth.

Ling Donglai held the long spear, pressing it against Wu Gui's neck. He said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Wu, I accept!"

...

Wu Gui's expression was extremely ugly, and he could only retreat silently.

"As expected of Senior Brother Ling!"

Upon seeing this, the people of Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven couldn't help but feel excited, and their gazes towards Ling Donglai held a hint of admiration.

The number one person among the younger generation of Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven, and even the number one among the younger generation of Canglan Province, was indeed extraordinary.

The people from the three Holy Lands looked at Ling Donglai, a hint of surprise in their eyes.

This Ling Donglai was indeed remarkable. The power of that spear thrust just now was extremely ferocious.

This person appeared to be at Divine Court Peak, but his combat strength had the hidden might of a half-step Dongxuan Realm. Ordinary Divine Court Peak cultivators were no match for him.

For the small Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven to have such a favored son of heaven was indeed impressive.

Jian Sheng looked at Ling Donglai and said indifferently, "The number one among the younger generation of Canglan Province is indeed extraordinary! How about I suppress my cultivation, bind one arm, and we have a spar?"

...

Ling Donglai slightly tightened his grip on the long spear.

Yan Yang of Pure Yang Holy Land smiled calmly, "There's no rush for a spar. Today, Fellow Daoist Ling is hosting a banquet, so we can discuss other matters."

"Makes sense!"

Zhan Xuan of Zhou Tian Holy Land nodded lightly.

Jian Sheng was, after all, an early-stage Dongxuan Realm cultivator, yet he proposed to spar with a Divine Court Peak cultivator.

In his opinion, the other party had already fallen into an inferior position. If they were truly to spar, they should at least be in the same realm.

"Heh! Since Fellow Daoist Yan Yang and Fellow Daoist Zhan Xuan have both said so, then let's spar another time."

Jian Sheng smiled coldly, but he didn't make a move.

Ling Donglai put away his long spear and returned to his seat. He looked at the people from the three Holy Lands: "Fellow Daoists, please take your seats!"

He had already prepared for a fierce battle tonight. In fact, even if these three Dongxuan Realm cultivators made a move, he wouldn't fear them in the slightest. Although he was at Divine Court Peak, he also had some trump cards.

However, since these Dongxuan Realm cultivators weren't making a move, it made things much easier.

...

The figures of the three Holy Land members moved, flying down to their seats below.

Yan Yang poured a cup of fine wine, took a sip, and then looked at Ling Donglai, saying, "I heard that someone brought an ancient stone coffin out of Undying City, and that stone coffin is currently in Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven... Does Fellow Daoist Ling know about this?"

The other people from the three Holy Lands also looked at Ling Donglai simultaneously. Undying City and ancient stone coffin—these two names linked together were enough to shake all major powers.

Ling Donglai also poured a cup of wine and mused, "That stone coffin is indeed in my Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven."

He hadn't known about the stone coffin initially, and naturally hadn't dared to inquire, as it involved too much.

Later, his master proactively told him about it and even told him not to hide it, but to directly inform these Holy Land people.

It seemed Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven had other arrangements regarding this matter, so they were not afraid of these major powers knowing about it.

Moreover, this matter couldn't be kept secret anyway. Rather than letting people from various major powers infiltrate Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven and turn it upside down, it was better to inform them directly.

Upon hearing this, the people from the three Holy Lands couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten. The item was indeed in Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. They hadn't expected Ling Donglai to speak of this directly.

Yan Yang continued to inquire, "What do you know about that stone coffin, Fellow Daoist Ling? Who exactly brought the stone coffin out of Undying City?"

They only knew that the ancient stone coffin came from Undying City.

As for what was inside the stone coffin, what it involved, and who brought it out?

They didn't know any of this, so they needed to investigate.

Ling Donglai glanced at everyone and shook his head, "Fellow Daoists, you should understand that with my cultivation, it's already difficult for me to know that the stone coffin is in Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. As for other matters, I am not yet qualified to know."

...

Yan Yang and the other two exchanged glances, not finding any problem with what Ling Donglai said.

The stone coffin was connected to Undying City. If it was brought to Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven, it would surely be jointly guarded and studied by the powerful cultivators of Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. A Divine Court Realm cultivator naturally wouldn't be qualified to know too much.

Jian Sheng picked up a wine cup and began to play with it. Now that it was thoroughly confirmed that the stone coffin was in Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven, the next step would be to contend for it.

However, the subsequent struggle wouldn't involve these juniors; the Holy Land grand elders would make their move.

Just at this moment, a Divine Court Peak disciple of Myriad Sword Holy Land flew over. He came to Jian Sheng's side and whispered, "Senior Brother Jian Sheng, the matter of Junior Brother Wang Jianyi's demise has been investigated. The person who killed him is..."

Bang!

After listening, Jian Sheng instantly crushed the wine cup. He coldly swept his gaze around: "Who is Xie Weilou?"

"Not good!"

When Huang Quanxiao heard Jian Sheng's words, her heart immediately tightened. It seemed the matter of Wang Jianyi's death couldn't be hidden.

Thinking about it, it made sense. With the methods of Myriad Sword Holy Land, if a Holy Land disciple was found to have perished, it would be easy to find them. The Canglan Imperial Family simply couldn't suppress it.

Xie Weilou, on the other hand, had a rich smile. It seemed he would have to use the Tianya Sword to wash someone's hair again!

...

The people of Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven subconsciously looked at Xie Weilou, their expressions somewhat surprised. This new disciple of Talismans Peak had even offended someone from Myriad Sword Holy Land?

"Interesting!"

The people from Pure Yang Holy Land and Zhou Tian Holy Land also wore strange expressions.

Jian Sheng's gaze fell on Xie Weilou, and he said in a chilling tone, "Are you Xie Weilou? Did you kill my Junior Brother Wang Jianyi?"

"What? He even killed someone from Myriad Sword Holy Land?"

Everyone immediately felt their scalps tingle, their expressions filled with horror.

This was a ruthless person. He had just arrived at Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven and already killed a Grotto-Heaven disciple. And now he had even killed someone from Myriad Sword Holy Land. This time, he had truly stirred up trouble.

Ling Donglai's gaze narrowed. He looked at Jian Sheng: "Fellow Daoist Jian Sheng, there might be some misunderstanding in this matter."

Jian Sheng completely ignored Ling Donglai. He glared coldly at Xie Weilou, intense killing intent surfacing in his eyes: "To dare kill someone from my Myriad Sword Holy Land, you are simply courting death! Kill him for me!"
