Chapter 1792: The Heavenly Revelation Boundary

With a forward strike of the sword, the Boundary Beast was instantly decapitated. Chen Yu slowly retracted the Lichen in his hand; this time, there should be no more obstacles.

The Xuenü's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled. She remembered that the first time she came here, she had been torn apart by two Boundary Beasts until she was covered in blood.

Therefore, she still felt some fear in her heart regarding these two Boundary Beasts.

Now that she saw the two Boundary Beasts had been dealt with, she felt much more at ease.

"Is there anything else here that I don't know about?" Chen Yu asked as he slowly put away the Lichen.

"Not for the moment. We just need to wait for the time to come, then break the Barrier, and we can go in."

"How much information do you have about the people inside?" Chen Yu asked.

"I only know that the Hall Master is a person named Guiwu. These people usually practice in seclusion until I deliver the blood-food on time," the Xuenü said. "There are about a dozen experts inside."

"Is there anything special about it?" Chen Yu thought for a moment and asked again.

"Not really." After pondering for a moment, the Xuenü slowly shook her head: "This is all I know about their affairs, so... I'm sorry."

"Alright, I understand. It doesn't matter. Once the Barrier is broken, I will go in to scout the path and find out."

Chen Yu said: "Where are your clanspeople being held now?"

"Currently, they are all being held in the Dungeon behind the hall." The Xuenü looked a bit sad: "They... are all suffering, and some clanspeople with talent are forcibly taken away to have their Snow Spirit Power extracted."

"Snow Spirit Power?" Chen Yu asked in confusion: "What is that?"

"Simply put, it is a special power that our Xuenü Clan possesses, which is innate."

"But this power is closely linked to us. The pain caused by wanting to deprive us of this power is immense; the feeling is no less than having one's tendons pulled and skin peeled."

"And every time their power is extracted, the clanspeople are thrown into the Dungeon to recover slowly, and then a second extraction is performed." A look of unbearable pity appeared on the Xuenü's face; it was clear that the pain her clanspeople endured was immense.

"The cultivation world is inherently like this, the weak are prey to the strong." Chen Yu sighed slightly: "Once the Barrier is undone, I will release them; you don't need to worry."

The Xuenü nodded slightly; she lowered her head in Silence and spoke no more.

Checking the time, it was already approaching midnight. Chen Yu took a deep breath and sent out his Divine Sense silently.

The Barrier of Liehun Hall was extremely sinister; even Chen Yu could not feel the slightest fluctuation of magic power within it.

Therefore, he could only sense a slight fluctuation at the very moment when the Heavenly Spirit and Qi converged at this place. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Yu could completely break this Barrier.

Although the time had not yet arrived, Chen Yu did not dare to be careless. If he missed this moment, he would have to wait until the next day.

As soon as it hit midnight, Chen Yu immediately felt a wave of magic power coming from an open space in front of him.

And this fluctuation was becoming increasingly intense.

"It's here." Chen Yu's spirit lifted. He immediately sent out his Divine Sense without reservation, then reached behind his back, and the Lichen appeared in his hand.

He gripped the Lichen, quickly locked onto that faint, elusive power with his Divine Sense, and with a soft shout, he performed a horizontal slash forward with the Lichen in his hand.

Boom... The Sword Light collided with the power of the Barrier, and a wave of brilliance rippled outward. For a time, the light was dim, and the surrounding accumulated snow was blown away.

As the Sword Light struck in a crisscrossing pattern, a huge transparent light shield appeared before his eyes.

And within the light shield, an extremely magnificent hall was protected inside.

As the Primordial Qi from the Lichen in Chen Yu's hand struck, ripples began to spread across the light shield.

"The Barrier has appeared; they must have already noticed." The Xuenü was somewhat nervous. She looked up at the light waves before her, a look of fear appearing in her eyes.

"That's right, they were prepared long ago. If nothing goes wrong, everyone inside has already been awakened, just to deal with me, right?" Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Can I, by my own strength, actually make these people so nervous?"

The Xuenü stared fixedly at the Barrier before her. Within the Barrier, a figure flashed; it was an old man in a black robe with a beard and hair like snow.

This old man was the master of Liehun Hall, Guiwu.

He stood firm inside the Barrier, raised his head, and stared at Chen Yu: "Are you the Hunter?"

"Hunter? Not exactly." Chen Yu was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said: "My name is Chen Yu. I came today to send you all to your graves."

"You really are the Hunter." Guiwu murmured: "The reason Liehun Hall avoids the world is because those in the hall have already mastered the Dao of cultivation, which is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao."

"If we enter the world, it will trigger Heavenly Retribution. Even though we avoid the world, every hundred years, a Hunter is born, taking it upon themselves to eliminate our Liehun Hall, and you... are that Hunter."

"So I am the Hunter." Chen Yu nodded thoughtfully, then smiled and shook his head: "Your statement is not entirely accurate."

"I came to kill you because your existence is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao, so it would be more accurate for you to call me the Heavenly Dao."

"Hehe, young man, although I don't know what your background is, and although you being able to become a Hunter is enough to prove you have extraordinary qualities, our Liehun Hall has existed for nearly a thousand years. During this time, we have experienced at least a dozen Hunters, but these Hunters did not complete the task given to them by the Heavenly Dao and eventually died in Liehun Hall."

"Their skulls are now hanging above our hall entrance. They could not succeed, and neither can you."

"Oh, is that so? Since you know I cannot succeed, why don't you remove the Barrier and have a good, straightforward fight with me?" Chen Yu sneered.

Guiwu's gaze faltered slightly; truthfully, he dared not.

Although Liehun Hall welcomed a Hunter every hundred years, and they had left the corpses of these Hunters behind each time, the price they paid was also extremely heavy.

So even if they were confident in surviving this ordeal, they could not possibly open the Barrier and let Chen Yu in; that would cause them heavy losses.

They pushed the power of the Barrier to the limit, all to consume Chen Yu's strength. By the time Chen Yu broke through the Barrier, his strength would have been consumed too much, and in that case, the pressure on the people of Liehun Hall would be much less.

"Young man, although we are confident, you are, after all, the Hunter, naturally capable of countering us, so I won't be foolish enough to let you in." Guiwu smiled slightly: "This Barrier is the Heavenly Revelation Boundary of our Liehun Hall."
