190: Kill him, and the divine herb is mine! A fake ally, his murderous intent is out in the open!

Yellow Springs Secret Realm, a canyon where a cold wind howled.

Qin Feng and Wang Teng were currently teaming up to "gang up on" a Saint level eight skeletal giant lizard.

“Boom!”

Wang Teng's entire body was boiling with Devilish Qi. With a single palm strike, the violent Demonic Energy instantly condensed into a pitch-black giant hand that blotted out the sky, slamming firmly onto the skeletal giant lizard's body.

The giant lizard's massive body was sent flying as if struck by a mountain, shattering half of the cliff wall.

“Roar!”

The skeletal giant lizard let out a low growl full of humiliation. The soul fire in its hollow eye sockets flickered violently. Ultimately, it lost its nerve and, dragging its battered body, scurried deep underground.

“Hmph, a beast that doesn't know its own limits.”

Wang Teng slowly withdrew his palm, a cruel arc rising at the corners of his mouth beneath his black mask.

He was now at the Peak of the Saint level Nine Heavens!

Dealing with a Vicious Beast of this caliber was nothing more than a warm-up.

Qin Feng stood quietly to the side, watching him put on airs with an indifferent gaze.

[Idiot. You have to use your ultimate move just to fight a Saint level eight skeletal lizard? Are you that afraid people won't know about your superficial cultivation? A true expert keeps their aura restrained; what's the difference between you and a nouveau riche hanging Spirit Stones around their neck?]

However, a formulaic smile hung on his face as he complimented in a flat tone, “Brother Wang's Divine Might is truly peerless. It seems that this time, the yellow springs demonic sword will surely belong to you.”

“That is natural!”

Wang Teng indeed fell for it, immediately laughing arrogantly.

“Qin Feng, with you and I joined together, who in this Secret Realm can stop us?”

He stepped closer and lowered his voice, his tone carrying a hint of lewd greed.

“Once we find the yellow springs demonic sword and slaughter that bastard Su Chen, those peerless beauties by his side will be split between us, half for each. What do you think? Especially that icy beauty Ling Qingzhu—this Seat must have her!”

In Wang Teng's mind, Ling Qingzhu's cold and exquisite figure had already surfaced, and the possessiveness in his eyes was almost tangible.

“That works.”

Qin Feng nodded impassively.

[Fool, still dreaming of dividing women. Once Su Chen dies, I'll use you to sacrifice to the flag first. Your women, your Opportunity—all of them will be stepping stones for me, Qin Feng.]

Just as the two "allies," each with their own ulterior motives, were about to continue deeper, Qin Feng's footsteps suddenly paused.

His gaze was drawn to the section of the cliff wall that had been collapsed by the skeletal giant lizard.

After the wall collapsed, an ancient Immortal Cave, sealed by time, was revealed.

At the entrance of the Immortal Cave, a stone tablet covered in moss stood quietly in the gloom.

“Eh? There's actually an Immortal Cave here?”

Wang Teng discovered it as well and immediately became interested.

The two exchanged a look, both seeing caution in each other's eyes, but even more so, an uncontrollable greed.

They lightened their steps and slowly moved forward.

Qin Feng raised his hand and brushed away the thick moss on the stone tablet.

Several ancient and vast Demonic Path characters, seemingly containing the dao rhyme of the Great Dao, came into view.

“Place of Reincarnation, the living shall not enter.”

Place of Reincarnation?

These few words seemed to possess infinite magic, causing Wang Teng's breathing to suddenly hitch and become incredibly heavy.

Although he didn't recognize these squiggly characters, he could clearly feel the supreme Reincarnation dao rhyme within them, as if they could dominate life and death!

In this Yellow Springs Secret Realm!

What else could it be that was associated with the word "Reincarnation," other than the legendary supreme divine object that could allow one to ascend to the heavens in a single step and reach the Peak of the Great Emperor?!

“Hahahaha! Heaven is helping me! Destiny! This is destiny!”

Wang Teng could no longer hold it back. He laughed wildly at the sky, his frenzied laughter causing the entire canyon to buzz and vibrate as gravel tumbled down.

He suddenly turned his head, his gaze toward Qin Feng filled with the charity and pity of a superior.

“Qin Feng! Do you see?! This is my, Wang Teng's, destiny! Heaven is guiding me to obtain that supreme Opportunity!”

“Rest assured!” He waved his hand magnanimously. “Once I obtain this Opportunity and my cultivation skyrockets again, after I slay Su Chen, the benefits I promised to share with you will certainly not be lacking!”

He had already completely and naturally regarded this unknown Opportunity as something already in his pocket.

Qin Feng sneered in his heart, but his face had to cooperate by acting out a complex expression of shock, envy, and a hint of jealousy.

[Destiny? If the Heavens had eyes, the first thing they'd do is strike down an idiot like you whose brain is stuffed with muscle.]

[But this is fine too. Just keep being the pathfinding cannonball for me, you Son of Destiny.]

[The true Opportunity will ultimately belong to me, Qin Feng, alone!]

Before the massive temptation of the four words "Place of Reincarnation," the already fragile Alliance between the two saw its cracks grow deeper and more hidden.

They delayed no longer and, one after the other, walked into that bottomless, pitch-black Immortal Cave... the VIP viewing area.

Su Chen was munching on melon seeds, watching the two idiots who thought they were the protagonists of destiny through the Blood Mirror. As they stepped into the trap Liu Ruyan had meticulously laid out, he almost choked on a shell.

[Here they come! The fish have taken the bait! And it's two fat, stupid fish jumping into the frying pan themselves!]

[Liu Ruyan did a beautiful job. She even forged a scenic attraction sign like 'Place of Reincarnation'—it sounds so high-class and is specifically designed to fool idiots. Full marks for detail! As expected of a professional!]

[Look at that half-wit Wang Teng; he's laughing like he just won five hundred billion Spirit Stones. And this guy calls himself destiny?]

Seeing Wang Teng's ecstatic, almost epileptic state, Liu Ruyan also laughed so hard her flowers trembled. She picked up a cup of spiritual tea and raised it toward Su Chen and Ling Qingzhu from afar.

“Come, Little Chen Chen, Ice Block Face, let's have a toast for our two Best Actor candidates about to take the stage.”

Ling Qingzhu silently picked up her teacup and clinked it with hers.

She looked at the two "Prodigies" in the Blood Mirror who were being played in the palm of a hand yet were still immersed in their dreams of being the protagonists of destiny. Her awe of Su Chen reached a new Peak.

[Are these his methods? Without exerting the slightest effort, using only the simplest open scheme, he makes his enemies walk into the net and seek their own deaths.]

[On the surface, it looks like that enchantress is laying the trap, but without Su Chen's approval and secret guidance, how would she dare be so presumptuous?]

[The person truly playing the game has only ever been him from beginning to end.]

She looked again at the man beside her who was leisurely munching on melon seeds as if watching a rural folk play, and her gaze became increasingly complex and obsessed.

Inside the Blood Mirror.

Qin Feng and Wang Teng passed through a deep, long tunnel, and the view suddenly opened up.

An unimaginably massive underground abyss lay stretched out before them.

At the bottom of the abyss, that yellow springs reincarnation grass—entirely pitch-black like ink, yet with leaves shimmering with a seven-colored Reincarnation halo—was quietly emitting an attraction powerful enough to drive any living being mad.

The moment they saw that Divine Plant, both of their breaths stopped!

Their bodies, their Divine Souls, and every single one of their cells were screaming frantically, hungering with greed!

Almost at the same instant, both of them sensed the Heaven-Defying nature of this Divine Plant!

And almost at the same instant, the gaze they directed at their so-called "ally" beside them quietly rose with a hundred and twenty percent cold killing intent!

[Kill him!]

[As long as I kill him, this Divine Plant is mine!]

[By then, my cultivation will have advanced greatly, and slaying Su Chen will be as easy as turning over my hand! Everything of his, including his women, will be mine!]

The inner monologues of the two actually reached a startling synchronization at this moment.

The air solidified.

Boundless killing intent bred wildly in this dark abyss like rampant weeds.

A bloody feast composed of greed and betrayal was about to begin.
