Volume 8: Peak of the Star Domain Chapter 1236 A powerful enemy breaks in!
At this time in the Cheng family, Cheng Hai had just returned to the family and was reporting his recent gains to the Grand Elder when he suddenly received a message from the great elder who was monitoring the Bai tribe.
Cheng Hai took out the sound transmission jade slip and originally planned to integrate his consciousness to check it. The Supreme Elder's eyes flickered slightly and he said lightly: "Let me listen too!"
As the sound transmission jade slip was opened, Cheng Hai and the Supreme Elder immediately heard clearly what the Great Elder said: "The Bai people suddenly wanted to die. They dared to use all their strength to open the palace formation to block surveillance, and even used the formation to resist my attack!"
Hearing the elder's message, Cheng Hai frowned and asked in confusion, "Why did the Bai people suddenly rise up in resistance? Could it be that the oppression is too harsh and they are ready to fight to the death?"
The Cheng family's Grand Elder felt puzzled after hearing this, but his eyes suddenly became extremely fierce, and he said in a cold voice: "The fish will die, but the net will not break!"
"Since they were able to refine it before, it means that the Bai Clan has the strength to do so. We naturally cannot let them reduce their strength now. If they resist , they will be killed without mercy!"
"If the Bai people dare to resist, we will kill them until they submit, and then they will never dare to resist again!"
"If they refuse to obey, then kill them all. The Cheng family does not need disobedient ants!"
Hearing the words of the Supreme Elder, Cheng Hai couldn't help but feel fortunate in his heart. Fortunately, the Bai tribe did not rebel recklessly this time, but the leader of the Bai tribe returned. Otherwise, under the order of the Supreme Elder, he would probably need to wield a knife against the Bai tribe!
However, Cheng Hai remained calm on the surface, and immediately shouted in a deep voice: "I will follow the orders of the Supreme Elder!"
Then Cheng Hai clasped his fists and said goodbye, then immediately flew high into the sky, seemingly rushing towards Tianhai Star where the Bai people were.
In fact, Cheng Hai has been thinking about where to go at this time. Of course, he can't really go back to Tianhai Star to cause trouble for the Bai people, otherwise he might face the master's harsh lesson...
Shortly after Cheng Hai left, Li Xuanfeng silently entered the planet where the Cheng family was again and came to the vicinity of the Cheng family’s huge mansion.
Li Xuanfeng once again released his spiritual sense to sense, but this time he was more careful. Last time he only came to sense what kind of powerful people were within the Cheng family.
With Li Xuanfeng's current powerful spiritual power, he was able to easily penetrate the protective formation covering the entire Cheng family, and soon sensed 90% of the Cheng family's area.
Although there were impressive formations in some areas, they only slowed down Li Xuanfeng's spiritual perception a bit but did not block it.
The formations formed by ordinary members of the Cheng family could not block Li Xuanfeng's spiritual power at all. Only the formations that reached the level of Duyuan Realm could slow down Li Xuanfeng's spiritual perception.
Facing a formation at the Duyuan Realm level, even Li Xuanfeng would cause considerable disturbances if he was not careful, enough to be discovered instantly by a strong person.
Li Xuanfeng had carefully sensed 90% of the area of the Cheng family. Although he saw a trading palace with a large number of rare treasures, there was no golden tree he was looking for.
After sensing 90% of the Cheng family's area, there were only three small areas where Li Xuanfeng did not rashly spread his spiritual sense.
In these three areas, there are formations at the top level of the Duyuan Realm!
One of them was the area where Li Xuanfeng had sensed the aura of a strong man before. It was most likely the residence of the Cheng family’s supreme elder.
As for the other two areas, there is a great elder of the Duyuan Realm guarding them. Li Xuanfeng guessed that they should be important places such as the Treasure Pavilion or the Sutra Pavilion, so they would arrange the top-level Duyuan Realm formation and send a great elder of the Duyuan Realm to guard them.
Outside these two areas, there was an extremely solid light curtain of formation, and the scene inside could not be seen. It was this light curtain that blocked Li Xuanfeng's spiritual consciousness.
Moreover, Li Xuanfeng vaguely felt that these two formations were extremely amazing, and they might have reached the pinnacle of the Duyuan Realm formation. If his spiritual consciousness tried to spread into them, it would definitely cause quite a stir and would be discovered by the Cheng family in an instant.
Li Xuanfeng's eyes flashed slightly. The golden tree that Shen Wantong mentioned was most likely within these two areas.
Although Li Xuanfeng was confident that he could quickly break into this top-level formation in the Duyuan Realm, the fluctuations it created would inevitably attract the Cheng family's supreme elder to the Cheng family in an instant, and by then he would probably have no chance to enter another area.
Although Li Xuanfeng is no longer afraid of the Cheng family's supreme elder, he still needs to be wary of the Cheng family, a top force that has been entrenched for countless years. They have the amazing foundation left by their powerful ancestors, and they are likely to unleash power that can threaten him!
So Li Xuanfeng has decided that he must first determine the approximate location and then succeed in one go, otherwise he will have no chance!
At this time, a young girl came to one of the areas and bowed respectfully to the elder guarding it, saying, "Greetings, Great Elder. I am here to choose a technique."
After hearing this, the great elder opened his cloudy eyes, glanced at the token in the girl's hand and nodded slightly. Suddenly, a hole one zhang high and half a zhang wide appeared in the light curtain of the formation behind him, like a simple gate.
Li Xuanfeng immediately released his spiritual sense and quickly passed through the gate, sensing the scene inside before the gate was closed.
He immediately saw that behind the light curtain, there was a nine-story black stone tower, which gave off an extremely vicissitudes of life aura and was obviously something that had existed for a long time.
However, Li Xuanfeng's spiritual consciousness was blocked again. This ancient stone tower did not have the power of an array, but it was like an extremely amazing treasure. It had a powerful protective power that blocked his spiritual consciousness outside, as if it was completely airtight.
At this time, the girl had already passed through the gate formed by the formation. The gate began to shrink and close rapidly. In order to avoid being discovered, Li Xuanfeng had to quickly retract his spiritual sense.
Although he had never seen the inside of this nine-story stone pagoda, based on the girl's words, Li Xuanfeng guessed that this place was the Cheng family's scripture library.
Li Xuanfeng immediately turned his gaze towards another area covered by the top-level formation of the Duyuan Realm, and he had already made a decision in his heart.
According to the roughly similar arrangements of the major forces, they should not place the treasures of heaven and earth in the Sutra Library, because they have so many skills and resources that a Sutra Library alone is not enough to hold them all.
Because of this, Li Xuanfeng guessed that the golden tree that Shen Wantong mentioned was stored in another area.
Then Li Xuanfeng began to wait silently outside the Cheng family. He still needed to wait for an opportunity to enter the Cheng family quietly.
A moment later, when a cultivator from the Cheng family returned to the family from the outside world, Li Xuanfeng immediately followed him secretly and quickly merged into the space, as if he had turned into this person's shadow. The cultivator did not notice it at all.
When the Cheng family cultivator passed through the formation and entered, the formation suddenly showed a slight fluctuation. Li Xuanfeng seized the opportunity and flashed past in an instant without being sensed by the formation.
The protective formation of a top force like the Cheng family has reached the top level of the Duyuan Realm, and its design is extremely ingenious. A token is required to enter, and it will also verify whether the cultivator's breath is consistent with the token and the records of the formation.
Because of this, even if ordinary cultivators have reached perfection in the Source Realm, they cannot pass through this protective formation silently.
Only a great master of formations with extremely high attainments, or a top-notch power with a deep understanding of the power of space, can pass through the formation silently.
Li Xuanfeng had just broken through to the late and perfect stages of the Duyuan Realm in the Tianchen Secret Realm. He had not yet improved his attainments in formations, and his comprehension of the power of space was not enough to achieve this now.
However, Li Xuanfeng's speed was extremely amazing, and he had already gained a great understanding of the power of space in the Dao Tower. With the opportunity of this Cheng family cultivator entering, he was still able to avoid the detection of the formation.
At this moment, when the formation opened the entrance and verified the breath of the cultivator at the same time, Li Xuanfeng seemed to have grasped an almost negligible gap and sneaked into the Cheng family in an instant!
After entering Cheng's house, Li Xuanfeng immediately headed straight for the area he suspected and arrived in front in a flash.
Li Xuanfeng knew very well that he did not have much time, because the Cheng family's protective formation would not only check the cultivators coming in and out, but would also scan the entire family from time to time to prevent the presence of "aliens".
This is what Li Xuanfeng sensed when he was outside the Cheng family, so before entering the Cheng family, he had already decided that he needed to succeed as quickly as possible this time.
The area in front is very similar to the previous one. It is also covered by a cylindrical light curtain, which completely envelops the scene inside and cannot be directly perceived by the spiritual sense.
At this time, no cultivator had entered this area, so Li Xuanfeng could not find a chance to sneak in again. Moreover, he had already sensed that the Cheng family's protective formation was sweeping towards this area at a rapid speed.
This was like a carpet-like scan, a transparent invisible ripple, like forming a cross-section, crossing the entire Cheng family, and then rotating rapidly, so that every inch of the Cheng family could be checked.
Li Xuanfeng knew that he could no longer avoid the invisible ripples of this sweep, so he flashed and appeared outside the area covered by the second formation, and stood in front of the formation's light curtain!
Because Li Xuanfeng was using all his strength to operate his secret concealment technique, even though the Cheng family's great elder who was guarding the place was not far away from him, he could not see or sense his figure at all.
Sensing that the formation was about to scan his position, Li Xuanfeng's eyes suddenly showed decisiveness. He instantly raised his hand and clenched his fist, then suddenly blasted towards the light curtain in front of him!
boom!
A terrifying muffled sound instantly resounded throughout the Cheng family, and even caused the ground to shake violently, as if a major earthquake had occurred!
The base of this formation was buried underground. Li Xuanfeng's punch created an extremely powerful impact force, which immediately caused the underground base to vibrate violently, thus involving the entire Cheng family.
Amidst the terrifying roar, a large number of cracks suddenly appeared in the formation in front of Li Xuanfeng, and it collapsed at a rapid speed!
When the cracks on the formation spread rapidly, Li Xuanfeng instantly passed through the cracks and entered the formation!
When Li Xuanfeng flashed past, the formation was still in the process of collapsing, which shows his decisiveness and incredibly fast speed.
When the loud bang suddenly sounded, the great elder of Duyuan Realm who was guarding the place suddenly opened his eyes in astonishment, and then his face changed drastically. He didn't expect that someone had appeared near him, and he didn't even notice it at all!
If this person launches a sneak attack on him, he will probably pay a huge price in an instant, and will be seriously injured if not killed!
Because this mysterious monk actually dared to break into his Cheng family by force, and was able to destroy this powerful protective formation with one blow!
He immediately knew that the mysterious monk who suddenly broke in must be much stronger than him, and he was no match for him at all, so he immediately shouted: "A powerful enemy has broken into the treasure hall!"
While shouting, the great elder had no choice but to stand up and rush to the treasure hall to intercept the intruding monk as soon as possible.
Almost all of the other great elders of the Cheng family who were at the Duyuan realm, as well as the supreme elder, also noticed the alarming fluctuations coming from the treasure hall, and immediately set off to rush over.
But their speed cannot compare with Li Xuanfeng's!
