Chapter 1347: Six Holy Sect Heir

Ahead was a flat plain, nothing remained.

On the ground appeared a treasure chest, plus a cloud‑shaped cultivation reward.

Xiao Feng casually touched it.

【You have gained 5,600,000 cultivation!】

For a level‑500 dungeon, the cultivation reward is far higher than imagined—even without double experience it's this much; six bosses and the minions together total at least 38 million, comparable to the sum of level‑425 and level‑450.

This level of dungeon is the strongest route for players to reach level 500; if they can't clear it, the loss is huge.

As for beyond level 500, the leveling method changes—one can consume cultivation, or consume Qi Luck.

Qi Luck can supply 50% of the experience requirement, dispensed by the Civilization Lord. Or one can establish a divine faith, using faith points in place of Qi Luck, which also speeds up leveling.

Xiao Feng still needs some time to reach level 500, but he feels that clearing the Myriad Heavens Tower more often might speed up his progress.

"Let's open the chest." Ximen Gou Sheng and the others gathered around.

Xue Ningzhen picked up her sword and silently put it away in her pack.

The sight of Xiao Feng holding the immortal sword was etched into her heart, impossible to erase.

But… her goal remains to surpass!

Even if Xiao Feng grows stronger, she will not lose confidence; she must rally, seek understanding of law and Dao, cultivate without cease, catch up, and strive to overtake.

Cultivators advance fearlessly—this is her belief as a Sword Cultivator.

"You go ahead and open it; I'll scout forward."

Xiao Feng had no interest in the chest's drop.

The reward of cultivation dungeons is mainly cultivation; during early stages they give some divine artifacts, but to him they're insignificant.

In terms of difficulty, if we ignore the chess game, this battle is actually tougher than clearing the Sword Tomb's first and second bosses.

There are many bosses, plus two extremely powerful Tribulation Stage bosses; even if twenty people revived on the spot to fight, victory would be unlikely.

Even so, the reward is at most two or three spiritual artifacts—he still doesn't care for them.

Xiao Feng sheathed his sword and continued to conceal it.

Everything within a few kilometers ahead had been destroyed by him; he summoned Da Bai, rode a crane forward, and went to find the next boss.

Just halfway there, he encountered several disciples of the Six Holy Sect, who flew over to attack him.

These minions didn't exist before; they only spawned after clearing the first old boss, so they weren't instantly killed by Xiao Feng's Heaven‑Opening First Sword.

But the outcome is the same—though they didn't die just now, they will die now.

Xiao Feng didn't even need a weapon; his bare‑handed Source Needle instantly killed them.

After Xue Ningzhen and the others finished collecting the rewards and caught up, watching his casual strikes—one hit, one kill—left them astonished and envious, with a hint of hidden fear.

Xiao Feng is an outer‑region player; even though we're both human, a day of conflict will come.

Against someone like him, what could they possibly use to resist?

Even if millions rushed him together, they couldn't block a single Secret Art of his!

The shadow of the Chaotic World Ice River, combined with that shocking sword strike just now, nearly erased their confidence; they had no courage to oppose Xiao Feng.

The group followed Xiao Feng and soon arrived at the chamber of Boss No. 2.

Boss No. 1 is the Qisheng; everyone had assumed Boss No. 2 would also be some saint.

But upon arriving, they discovered it wasn't so.

Boss No. 2's chamber lay in a beautiful, clear‑water valley, quite a distance from the chess‑playing area.

Here birds sang and flowers scented the air; a clear stream flowed by. The boss was a youth in coarse cloth, wearing a bamboo hat, seated by the stream, holding a book and fishing quietly.

【Book Saint Heir — Lou Zhizhang】

Level: 750 (Tribulation Stage)

HP: 20 trillion / 20 trillion

Note: only one‑thousandth of the Book Saint's power.

"Level 750—this isn't hard."

After seeing the boss's info, Ximen Gou Sheng and the others felt much more relieved.

As long as no 1,700‑level unreasonable boss shows up, with their strength the challenge is still fairly easy.

"To have friends come from afar—isn't that delightful? … Friends, put down your weapons; reading is the greatest joy in the world—why fight and kill?"

The Book Saint Heir adjusted his pocket, then spoke lightly.

"Reading is good, but cultivation inevitably involves fighting. Fellow Daoist, please instruct me!"

Xue Ningzhen stepped forward, her cold‑jade sword already in hand, and launched an attack.

She didn't even wait for her teammates to buff—she seemed eager.

Beneath her calm exterior lay a yearning for Xiao Feng's sword; she desperately wanted to test how far she could go with her own immortal blade.

A chill spread, the effect of over 500 points of Ice System Enlightenment granting her a powerful frost aura.

Xue Ningzhen didn't use a Law Phantom, yet her Law Fluctuation was hardly inferior; she seemed wrapped in a thin veil of frost, and as she raised her sword, ice and snow poured down like an avalanche, straight at the angler.

"Only through reading can one understand principle, cultivate virtue, and nurture nature. Miss, you're too hot‑tempered—you should read more."

The Book Saint Heir didn't even lift his head; he merely shook the book in his hand, and a string of text floated out, turning into calligraphy that swallowed Xue Ningzhen's attack.

Xue Ningzhen kept pressing her offense; the Book Saint Heir calmly replied, sending forth streams of text that easily dispelled the Ice Frost Fairy Maiden's sword qi.

Ximen Gou Sheng and the others wanted to help, but Xue Ningzhen frowned slightly: "I'll try again." She refused their aid.

Xiao Feng had no interest in bosses over level 700; since they could handle it, he stayed put, riding Da Bai and strolling through the valley.

The battle lasted a few minutes; Xue Ningzhen's strikes grew stronger, while the Book Saint Heir's relaxed stance began to falter, so he lowered his fishing rod and rose to respond.

After ten or so minutes, the Book Saint Heir fell beneath Xue Ningzhen's sword.

But she didn't do it alone—she had taken several heals from her teammates; otherwise, taking on a double‑difficulty Tribulation Stage boss solo would still have very low odds.

Output sufficient, defense lacking—that's her weakness.

Xiao Feng is actually like that too, but because he's too strong, ordinary people can't tell.

"Continue."

After the fight, Xue Ningzhen's complexion was flushed, her mana depleted, her tone slightly weak—obviously this battle took a heavy toll.

After checking his cultivation, Xiao Feng walked at the back of the team, excluding himself from the combatants.

Originally, right after finishing the first old one, he thought there was still a big boss later, wanting to have some fun.

But after seeing the Successor of the Calligraphy Saint, he knew the remaining few were monsters of the disciple generation, not worth his effort.

Sure enough, when everyone arrived before the No. 3 boss, what they saw was still a 'Successor'.

【Successor of the Painting Saint——Gu Danqing】

Level: 780 (Tribulation Stage)

HP: 22 trillion/22 trillion

Note: Be careful he paints you into the painting.

This boss isn't much stronger than the Calligraphy Saint's Successor.

Xue Ningzhen still took the lead in pulling monsters, but this time she didn't insist on soloing; she had used several equipment skills, consumed much of her insight points, and no longer had the ability to solo a Tribulation-stage strong opponent.

Nineteen people fought together, efficiency high; in less than five minutes, the Painting Saint's Successor also fell.

Xiao Feng secretly shook his head: 'The Six Saints Sect has only a slippery Chess Saint holding the fort; no wonder it was wiped out and became ruins.'
