Chapter 346

~8 min read 1,423 words

The sealing spirit formations I set up have all been infused with a great deal of magical power, and I've even modified and upgraded them, making their effects stronger—enough to last half a time period with plenty to spare, and they don't require continuous input.

Xiong Dao Ren couldn't help but boast: "We can still find some treasures; there's plenty of time."

"That's good."

Tian Peng nodded and laughed: "Dao Ren, you did quite well today."

"When we're done, Bei Shuai will take you to Chaos Residence for a meal—I'm treating!

Order whatever you want, just point at it."

Tian Peng slapped his chest, utterly generous.

Tian Peng is now a wealthy man; treating a meal is more than enough!

"Peng Ge, so magnanimous."

Xiong Dao Ren also beamed with joy, quickly launching into flattery.

Thinking of the food at Chaos Residence now makes Xiong Dao Ren's mouth water and his stomach start growling.

The dishes made by this shopkeeper Chen are truly too delicious!

Tian Peng squinted his eyes, clearly enjoying himself.

"Rest assured, follow Bei Shuai, and your future will be bright."

"From now on, in Chaos Residence, you can eat whatever you want, whenever you want."

Tian Peng gave what he believed to be the most beautiful promise!

"I, Xiong Dao Ren, swear to follow Peng Ge to the death."

Xiong Dao Ren solemnly nodded; Peng Ge had shown him kindness in recognizing his talent, and he would absolutely not betray him.

As he spoke, Xiong Dao Ren's heart also began to anticipate.

Being able to eat Chaos Residence's meals every day—this is practically the life of immortals!

My greatest wish is to forever follow Peng Ge, and also to forever eat the shopkeeper Chen's meals!

Such is bear life—what more could one seek? Xiong Dao Ren gave his answer, Tian Peng nodded satisfied, and stepped forward.

Crack!

A crisp sound, as fine as a mosquito's wing, rang from beneath Tian Peng's feet, and in the next moment, Tian Peng's face changed dramatically—though it was originally dark, so the change wasn't visible.

"Peng Ge!

Not good!

Exposed!

We need to run!"

Xiong Dao Ren shouted anxiously.

As the words fell, he hastily fumbled to put an acceleration formation on both Tian Peng and himself.

"What, what?"

Tian Peng was still dazed, utterly confused: "What exposed? Xiong Dao Ren had taken a few steps running, then turned back and saw Tian Peng still frozen in place, so he urgently urged: "Peng Ge, run fast!"

At this moment, Tian Peng also reacted—realizing their affair had been exposed, his face showed both anxiety and embarrassment: "But Xiao Tian is still inside!"

"We can't worry about that now!

Peng Ge, if we don't leave now, none of us will get out!"

Xiong Dao Ren was so anxious he could barely stand.

Tian Peng's heart struggled for a moment, but upon thinking that the owner of the cave dwelling was Yun Zhongzi, a Prepared Saint great power, he immediately gave in.

Even running one second less is gambling with one's life!

"Xiao Tian, run fast—exposed!"

Tian Peng gathered his magical power and shouted loudly toward the secret chamber; immediately, wind stirred beneath his feet, and he and Xiong Dao Ren, using all their strength like infants sucking milk, ran out.

Inside the secret chamber, Xiao Tian, who had been researching how to move the Heaven-Turning Seal, also heard the commotion.

Although Tian Peng used magical power to amplify the sound, the secret chamber also had soundproofing effects.

The sound came through, but faintly and scattered; Xiao Tian stood dazed, not yet reacting.

"What running or not running exposed? This Great Master also didn't run."

Xiao Tian muttered, completely dismissing it.

This Tian Peng, speaking so loudly—just buzzing like this for flies to hear, Xiao Tian couldn't help but retort.

Just as Tian Peng and Xiong Dao Ren, relying on the formation's acceleration, had escaped the cave dwelling for no more than a second.

A mighty pressure descended upon the upper region of Yuzhu Cave.

Tian Peng and Xiong Dao Ren hid among the dense Chen, using their concealment formation to restrain their aura.

Through the cloud layer, Tian Peng could clearly see Yun Zhongzi's face—both furious and unusually excited.

He couldn't help but shiver: Is this Yun Zhongzi? Too terrifying—looking like he wants to eat people!

In the Chan Sect, Yun Zhongzi is known for peace and benevolence, but he can't stand Tian Peng and the others sneaking in to pull off a double plum blossom stunt—if this happened to anyone, he wouldn't be angry; Yun Zhongzi's excitement made the hairs on his duster stand on end, wanting to pull them out bald—unexpectedly, they really dared to come!

Bold enough!

Since you're seeking death, then don't blame me, Yun Zhongzi, for showing no mercy!

Like a meteor falling to earth, Yun Zhongzi crashed down onto the ground, shaking the entire Zhongnan Mountain so it trembled three times—grass and wood spirits, mountain demons and beasts, none were left unstartled.

Even being able to do this to his own Ling Mountain shows what kind of mood Yun Zhongzi is in now.

In the end, they didn't make it out,

Tian Peng and Xiong Dao Ren gazed at Yun Zhongzi's mighty presence, then noticed that even the cave dwelling's main gate had no sign of Xiao Tian having run out, and their hearts leapt.

Finished!

Tian Peng and Xiong Dao Ren silently thought: This Xiao Tian can only rely on himself now!

"This Xiao Tian dog, good or bad, is also Yang Jian's pet. Yang Jian, as the chief of the Third Generation of the Chan Sect, and Yun Zhongzi, who is of the Second Generation and Yang Jian's Formation Address, should... not die, right?"

Tianpeng looked at the furious momentum and directly kicked his own Cave Dwelling Imperial Kitchen Wall down as Yun Zhongzi entered, muttering in a low voice.

He was comforting himself spiritually, after all, he hadn't brought the Xiao Tian dog out with him.

But looking at Yun Zhongzi's appearance speed, if they went back to find the Xiao Tian dog, the few of them would definitely not be able to escape.

Xiong Dao Ren from behind added softly from the side: "If Yun Zhongzi hadn't had his mind clouded by anger."

"-"

Tianpeng's eyelid twitched: "..."

With Yun Zhongzi's current state, is this possible?! Is the situation of certain death good or not?!

Tianpeng sighed and said in mourning: "We can only rely on the Xiao Tian dog's fortune."

Xiong Dao Ren nodded.

Yes!

But, Xuan!

Both the man and the bear believed the Xiao Tian dog faced more misfortune than fortune, for this is not something else, but a great power of the Prepared Saint Realm!

"Peng Ge"

After a moment of silence, Xiong Dao Ren spoke again.

"En?"

"Should we withdraw?"

Xiong Dao Ren's voice trembled slightly—this was truly terrifying to the bear!

Tianpeng's heart also felt some struggle; he too wanted to directly leave this place of right and wrong, but his sense of responsibility prevented him from doing so.

After hesitating for a moment, Tianpeng said in a deep voice: "Then let's wait a bit longer, at least we should know what condition the Xiao Tian dog is in now."

A group just left like that—what kind of talk is this? Xiong Dao Ren nodded, then let's wait. Anyway, in his view, there's no hope left.

"Dao Ren, how were we exposed this time?"

Tianpeng frowned, somewhat confused, asking: "How did we get exposed without realizing it? I didn't even have time to react."

"It was my carelessness—I didn't notice that this Cave Dwelling actually has a hidden layer of Formation Array. I thought only taking out a treasure would trigger the Formation Array, so I set up so many Spirit-Sealing Arrays at his Secret Chamber."

As he spoke, Xiong Dao Ren sighed heavily, his eyes gaining a few more traces of regret.

"I didn't expect that not only is this the case, but even if we walked out directly, we would still trigger a new Formation Array."

"That kick of yours just now toward the outside is what triggered this Formation Array. The restriction began spreading from outside the Cave Dwelling, and there was basically no time to react, let alone make amends."

Xiong Dao Ren recounted everything that had happened. If it weren't for his Mysterious Heaven Battle Armor, whether he could have instantly detected this problem would still be debatable.

This move is truly too dark!
