Chapter 1347: Father-in-law and Son-in-law's Verbal Sparring

And in the red magma below, due to the terrifying pressure impact, it exploded into towering waves.

At the wide-open gate of the Gu Di Dong Fu, strange ripples suddenly began to spread.

Immediately, under everyone's gaze, the space at the gate quickly became distorted.

At the same time, beyond the stone door of the wide-open Gu Di Dong Fu, a passage extending out as if transparent appeared.

And as those passages extended, soon, at a place a hundred zhang behind the door.

The space at the end of the passage suddenly twisted.

Immediately, under the gaze of hundreds of gazes in the sky, that space violently erupted with a heaven-shaking roar.

Instantly, a spatial rift tens of thousands of zhang huge spread directly from the sky.

And at the center of that spatial rift, a cluster of silver light suddenly appeared.

Then, under the astonished gazes of all, that silver light instantly merged with the spatial rift, forming an extremely wide arch-shaped frame.

At the same time, an ancient and desolate aura quickly emanated from behind this frame.

And at the moment the passage was fully formed, that terrifying pressure that kept raging out instantly weakened many times over!

At this moment, the people in the sky finally were able to see clearly the scenery inside the Gu Di Dong Fu.

However, although the previous chaotic space obstructing vision was gone.

But now, as everyone looked ahead, they saw only a misty expanse beyond the gate.

And under the obstruction of that thick gray mist, even powerful beings like Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan could not see clearly what lay within.

"Don't get entangled with them, go in and find something!"

Upon seeing the transparent passage form, Hun Tiandi, without caring whether he could see inside, shot out at almost the same time as Wu Nie Tun Yan.

Turning into a rainbow streak, they shot into the passage as fast as lightning.

"We must go too, we cannot let that Emperor-grade Infant Pill fall into Hun Tiandi's hands!"

As they moved, Gu Yuan also let out a low shout, summoning the Dou Saint experts of his clan and Yan Jin and others to act.

As he spoke, he immediately exerted his full strength, rushing toward the invisible passage like a meteor chasing the moon, filing in one after another.

As for Yan Jin and Huo Ling, they quickly discarded their opponents and followed the former into the passage.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The other Dou Saint experts of the two clans, seeing their clan leader enter, all bore that thick pressure and rushed straight into the passage.

After all, the safety of the clan leader and the Emperor-grade Infant Pill were far more important than fighting outside.

As everyone rushed into the Gu Di Dong Fu, this sky once again became empty.

Only this ancient giant gate that had appeared not long ago remained standing quietly above the magma sea.

"Splash!"

After those people ahead had all left, the magma surface below immediately began to churn.

"Bang!"

The next moment, the somewhat restless magma surface suddenly surged with waves.

"Hahaha, this emperor has finally come out!"

As the magma slammed back hard into the lower red sea, a middle-aged man burst out from within and came to the sky, laughing loudly.

This moment was the most satisfying for Zhu Kun since being sealed for thousands of years by the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's design.

After so long, he has finally come out!

"Hehe, Old Dragon Emperor, congratulations on seeing the light of day again."

And while he was shouting excitedly, Lin Feng led the people from the distant sky over, then chuckled lightly.

"Hmph, you black-hearted brat."

Recalling the scene when he was trapped at the gate of the Gu Di Dong Fu, where this guy had bullied him together with his daughter, Zhu Kun let out a cold snort and gave him no pleasant expression.

This bad kid corrupting his daughter is truly hateful.

Moreover, his daughter had come to see him several times afterward.

Given his experience, how could he fail to notice the changes in his daughter?

And thinking of his cute daughter being bullied by this black-hearted brat, Zhu Kun felt his anger explode!

"This little bastard, why wasn't he struck dead by lightning while refining pills?"

Thinking of his daughter's attitude defending Lin Feng, Zhu Kun silently marked him in his heart and cursed him fiercely.

At the same time, he immediately fawned, rubbing his hands, and ran to stand near Zi Yan not far from Lin Feng.

However, when he sensed Lin Feng's aura, his expression suddenly changed.

Immediately, he exclaimed in shock: "Black-hearted brat, you actually broke through to nine-star Dou Saint?!"

Although he had already heard from his daughter and others of the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan that this person had advanced to the Emperor-level soul.

But no one had ever told him that this black-hearted brat was a nine-star Dou Saint!

Moreover, how did this bastard achieve such a rapid breakthrough?

In just a few short years, he went from being an ant in his eyes straight up to nine-star Dou Saint!

"Hehe, I merely got lucky and obtained a Nine-grade Golden Pill, took it, had good luck, and broke through relying on the pill's power."

Hearing this, Lin Feng's mouth twitched as he began to humblebrag.

After all, this Old Biden hadn't given him a good look, so Lin Feng naturally had to "retaliate".

Well, angering his cheap father-in-law is his specialty!

Upon hearing this, the other women saw their men's smug expressions and all laughed, shaking their heads.

Their husbands were basically hopeless.

And the Old Dragon Emperor, upon hearing his humblebrag, instantly exploded with rage.

Immediately afterwards, he pointed at Lin Feng in displeasure, gritting his teeth: "A mere broken Golden Core is nothing special; this emperor couldn't care less!"

"Father-in-law, did you ever eat one back then? Do you know its taste? Do you know how good a Golden Core is?"

Regarding the offended former, Lin Feng merely shrugged casually, wearing a smug grin.

"You you... you little bastard, this emperor will definitely give you a proper beating today!"

Faced with the former's deadly threefold questioning, Candle Kun was seething with anger inside.

This black-hearted brat, you say you're just showing off that you've eaten a ninth-tier Golden Core, that's fine; he can simply not care.

But you bastard actually call yourself father-in-law— isn't that blatantly provoking me?

Thinking of this, the Old Dragon Emperor rolled up his sleeves, ready to go all out.

"Old Dragon Emperor, Lin Feng, cut it out— now Soul Heaven Emperor and Gu Yuan have already entered that Gu Di Dong Fu, and we still don't know what's inside, so you'd better settle this first before causing more trouble!"

Meanwhile, Candle Fire beside them, seeing the two arguing as if nothing were wrong, immediately rushed out to mediate.

As soon as his words fell, Phoenix Heaven also walked over helplessly and said: "Old Dragon is right, Lin Feng; we should first enter the Gu Di Dong Fu to prevent the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core from falling into the hands of Soul Heaven Emperor and Gu Yuan. As for other matters, we can discuss them later."

After all, he merely didn't want the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan to miss out on the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core, but he never expected it would benefit the Soul and Ancient clans instead!

Therefore, even Phoenix Heaven, the leader of the former's rival faction, couldn't help but step forward to urge the two ahead to act.

"Tch, really a bunch of clueless old fogies— what's the use of an Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core? Isn't the Gu Di inheritance fragrant enough?" Hearing the two's words, Candle Kun inwardly sneered.

Of course, at this moment he didn't show it on his face.

And thinking of the Gu Di inheritance that only he knew about, Candle Kun felt immensely pleased inside.

Well, once he takes the Gu Di inheritance and advances to Dou Emperor, he'll surely want to show off properly in front of that black-hearted brat.

But before the former had been happy for long, Zi Yan furrowed her brows slightly, then looked at her cheap father and said: "You're already this old, yet all you know is to cause trouble— can't you see we're handling important matters now? If you don't pay attention, what if the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core gets snatched by those people later?"

After scolding her father, Zi Yan immediately turned to her man and continued: "Lin Feng, what should we do now?"

"Crack!"

As soon as the former's words fell, Candle Kun's person-dragon was struck as if by lightning, his whole body freezing on the spot.

Obviously Lin Feng that black-hearted brat also participated, so why did his daughter end up blaming only him?

Thinking of this, Candle Kun's eyes instantly turned vicious as he stared at Lin Feng, seeming to declare he wouldn't let this go.

However, after noticing this situation, Zi Yan immediately gave her father a retaliatory glare.

"This old fogey, as soon as he shows up he wants to bully her man— truly despicable."

And seeing his daughter angry, Candle Kun dared not act further, so he could only reluctantly relent for now.

As for Lin Feng, he merely curled his lip, too lazy to continue fighting that old fogey.

Afterwards he pondered, his gaze sweeping over everyone, and comforted: "I previously subdued a ninth-tier Golden Core and almost capsized; even if this Gu Di Dong Fu does contain that Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core, after cultivating for over ten thousand years its strength must be extremely formidable. I estimate that even someone like Soul Heaven Emperor, a nine-star peak Dou Saint, might also risk capsizing, so there's no need to worry too much."

Worried that others might lose patience waiting, Lin Feng immediately repeated his "speculation" in full.

Upon hearing this, the several women who had participated in the earlier Golden Core capture instantly brightened, nodding in agreement.

After all, as her man said, they had previously found dealing with an imperfect ninth-tier Golden Core extremely difficult.

Although Soul Heaven Emperor and Gu Yuan are nine-star peak Dou Saints, it seems they would not be able to easily seize that Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core.

After all, the combat power of high-grade pills is nothing to trifle with.

Moreover, the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core inside this Gu Di Dong Fu has existed for over ten thousand years since the disappearance of Emperor Tuoshe.

Having cultivated for so long, its strength might very well not be inferior to that of Soul Heaven Emperor and the others!

Thinking this, the women instantly calmed down.

As for the people of the three major demon beast families, although they had not previously known the specific details of Lin Feng's capture of the Golden Core, after hearing the former's words...

But just thinking of an Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core that has cultivated for over ten thousand years, they uncontrollably felt a chill run through their bodies.

Having said this, everyone felt that Lin Feng seemed not to have said anything wrong.

And considering that the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core's strength might not be inferior to his own, the Old Dragon Emperor uncharacteristically fell silent, instead furrowing his brows in thought, wondering what he was thinking.

In fact, even after living for over ten thousand years, he had been trapped at the entrance of the Gu Di Dong Fu for several thousand years.

Therefore, he had a relatively clear understanding of the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core's strength.

Previously he had never considered this matter, thus causing the true strength of the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core to remain a mystery.

However, one can imagine that the Emperor-grade Infant Golden Core, having cultivated for so many years, certainly possesses strength that is far from simple.

Even if he goes, he might still capsize.

And thinking of this, Candle Kun's heart immediately gave a dark chuckle: "Just waltzing in like that, Soul Heaven Emperor, Gu Yuan—I think you're about to run into bad luck."

Meanwhile, inside that Gu Di Dong Fu, a light mist enveloped this strange space.

The thick smoke and dust made the whole space somewhat hazy with mist.

And in this boundless, vast expanse, a piece of land floated silently in space without leverage, like a pavilion in the sky.

However, the silence maintained by this space, after persisting for ten thousand years, was finally broken by a figure.

"Hiss!"

The myriad-year-old solitude that had permeated the space was, today, suddenly shattered by a warping spatial sound that broke the stillness of this space.

Immediately afterward, the space at a certain point suddenly twisted extremely, and instantly a huge spatial passage sprang into existence.

Immediately after, figures burst out violently from within, finally all landing upon that piece of land.

"Is this the Gu Di Dong Fu?"

As Soul Heaven Emperor's figure just touched the ground, while muttering to himself, his eyes hastily scanned the surroundings.

At the same time, a massive soul power surged outward, racing wildly in all directions.

However, as he attempted to use his strength and soul power to probe the surroundings.

He starkly discovered that, despite the might of his emperor-realm soul, he could not even sense beyond a thousand feet!

It looks like soul power is heavily suppressed here.

Translation: "It seems that here, the power of the soul is subject to considerable suppression." Need to keep punctuation? Use natural English.

Upon realizing his perception was restricted, Hun Tiandi's brows furrowed instantly.

"Upon noticing that his perception was restricted, Hun Tiandi's brows furrowed instantly."

We need to use glossary names: Hun Tiandi is a name not in the glossary; as a personal name it should be rendered in pinyin, so we use Hun Tiandi.

Thus line: "Upon noticing that his perception was restricted, Hun Tiandi's brows furrowed instantly."

But thinking about this Gu Di Dong Fu, it was a grand undertaking by that Dou Emperor expert, Tuoshe Gu Di.

"However, thinking of this ancient emperor's cave dwelling, it was a grand undertaking by that Dou Emperor expert, Tuoshe Gu Di."

We need to use glossary: Gu Di Dong Fu, Dou Emperor. Also Tuoshe Gu Di is a name; it should be pinyin: Tuoshe Gu Di. We'll add to glossary later.

Thus translation: "However, thinking of this Gu Di Dong Fu, it was a grand undertaking by that Dou Emperor expert, Tuoshe Gu Di."

His shock vanished instantly.

"The astonishment in his heart vanished instantly."

After all, what could these Nine-star Dou Sheng possibly amount to before a Dou Emperor expert?

"After all, before a Dou Emperor expert, what could these nine-star Dou Saints possibly amount to?"

"Let's hurry, lest we be dragged away by Gu Yuan and the others!"

Note the double comma after "hurry up," is likely a typo; we translate it as: "Let's hurry up, lest we be dragged away by Gu Yuan and the others!"

We need to use the glossary: Gu Yuan is a name; also "they" refers to them.

Thus: "Let's hurry up, lest we be dragged away by Gu Yuan and the others!"

Upon entering, Wu Nie Tun Yan quickly scanned the area with his gaze and then immediately warned them.

"As soon as Wu Nie Tun Yan entered this place, after quickly scanning the space with his gaze, he immediately gave a warning."

We need to use the glossary: Wu Nie Tun Yan.

Thus: "As soon as Wu Nie Tun Yan entered this place, after quickly scanning the space with his gaze, he immediately gave a warning."

However, as he spoke, strange fluctuations flickered quickly in his eyes.

"However, as he spoke, strange fluctuations flickered rapidly in his eyes."

No sooner had he spoken than Wu Nie Tun Yan took the lead and shot off into the distance.

"As soon as his words fell, Wu Nie Tun Yan directly took the lead and shot off toward the distance."

As for Hun Tiandi, his attention was wholly captured by the environment inside the Gu Di Dong Fu.

"As for Hun Tiandi, his attention at this moment was completely absorbed by the environment inside the Gu Di Dong Fu."

Thus, he failed to notice anything wrong with his partner.

"Thus, he failed to notice anything amiss with his partner."

After confirming there was no danger, he hurriedly flew toward where Wu Nie Tun Yan had vanished.

"After confirming there was no danger, he immediately rushed toward the spot where Wu Nie Tun Yan had disappeared."

The former had just vanished here; Gu Yuan, Yan Jin, and the others, together with a group of Dou Sheng, swiftly appeared.

"The former had just disappeared here; Gu Yuan and Yan Jin, along with several others, also swiftly appeared as a group of Dou Saints."

We need to keep the names: Gu Yuan, Yan Jin.

Naturally, upon realizing they had entered this dangerous area, everyone eyed the strange space warily.

"Naturally, after realizing they had come to this murderous zone, everyone's eyes showed vigilance as they gazed at this strange space."

Meanwhile, as the former inspected, figures continually flashed out from the writhing spatial passages around them.

"Meanwhile, as the former inspected, one after another figure flickered out from the constantly writhing spatial passages around."

However, they soon discovered that the strong experts from both sides quickly separated, then stared warily at each other, ready to guard against any sneak attack.

"But soon, upon discovering the strong experts of both sides, they quickly separated, then stared warily at each other, ready to guard against any sneak attacks."

However, because Hun Tiandi and Wu Nie Tun Yan are no longer present.

However, because Hun Tiandi and Wu Nie Tun Yan are no longer present.

We need to keep meaning: "However, because Hun Tiandi and Wu Nie Tun Yan are no longer..."

Therefore, these Soul Clan members are surely afraid of Gu Yuan and his companions.

"Therefore, these Soul Clan people undoubtedly fear Gu Yuan and the others."

But Gu Yuan had no time to worry about them; after confirming the area was safe, he quickly scanned the surroundings, preparing to move to intercept Hun Tiandi.

"But Gu Yuan has no time to worry about them now; after confirming the surroundings are safe, he immediately swept the area, preparing to go intercept Hun Tiandi."

preparing to go intercept Hun Tiandi.

However, Gu Yuan soon ran into a predicament similar to the one Hun Tiandi had faced earlier.

"But soon, Gu Yuan encountered a predicament similar to that of Hun Tiandi before."

His soul perception simply cannot penetrate this mist beyond a thousand zhang.

"Because his soul perception simply cannot penetrate these mists beyond a thousand-zhang range!"

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan immediately surveyed his surroundings.

"Thinking of this, Gu Yuan immediately observed his surroundings."

He saw a place where two distinct streaks of mist had been sliced apart, leaving clear traces.

"And upon seeing a spot where two streaks of mist had been conspicuously split apart,"

Gu Yuan was delighted and waved to his subordinates, saying, "Everyone, follow me! Stop Hun Tiandi from getting the Emperor-grade Infant Pill!"

"Gu Yuan instantly rejoiced, then waved to his subordinates: 'Everyone, follow me! Stop that Hun Tiandi from obtaining the Emperor-grade Infant Pill!'"

We need to use the translation Emperor-grade Infant Pill for the term.

Whoosh!

"Whoosh!"

No sooner had his words fallen than he took the lead and flew off, rushing along the path Hun Tiandi had taken.

"As soon as his words fell, he shot forward first, racing along the path that Hun Tiandi had taken."

After all, the most important Emperor-Grade Primordial Pill, he couldn't let the Soul Heaven Emperor snatch it away first. (End of chapter)
