Chapter 274

In his previous life, this place had already left a deep impression on him.

Back then he had still been wondering why there was the saying "when the waters drown the Buddha's knees, fire will burn the Lingyun Cave."

Now, standing right at the scene.

He understood.

So that was how it was.

This place was a secret realm, one of the Thirty-Six Grotto-Heavens.

It had merely been altered somewhat by Emperor Xuanyuan.

Just like the Great Sui's War God Temple.

And to enter Lingyun Cave.

The trigger of "waters drowning the Buddha's knees" was absolutely required!

Thinking of this.

Ximen Wudi could not help but feel a spark of interest.

He stepped on empty air and drifted above the water's surface.

His expression calm, he parted his lips and softly uttered.

"Rise!"

The instant his voice fell.

A mysterious and unfathomable rule descended over the water's surface.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

In an instant.

The originally perfectly calm water surface.

Suddenly surged into towering waves.

Raising wave after wave of massive billows.

In the span of a single blink.

The giant waves, as if possessed of their own intelligence.

Rushed violently to converge toward this side.

A few breaths later.

The water level swelled sharply.

Submerging the great Buddha's knees.

Roar!!!

The very instant the great Buddha's knees were submerged.

Inside Lingyun Cave.

A roar suddenly erupted!

Immediately after.

A terrifying aura erupted explosively from deep within.

At a speed the naked eye could hardly discern, it rushed swiftly toward the cave mouth of Lingyun Cave!

"Has it opened?"

Knowing well that that aura was emitted by the Fire Qilin.

A glint of anticipation flashed through Ximen Wudi's eyes.

The corners of his mouth held a faint smile.

Hands clasped behind his back, he quietly watched Lingyun Cave.

He had not forgotten that within it, there was still a dragon vein!

Although he was not certain whether one still existed in this comprehensive martial arts world.

That in no way diminished his anticipation.

It did not keep him waiting long.

In merely a dozen or so breaths' time.

A Qilin, its entire body radiating terrifying blazing flames, charged out from the mouth of Lingyun Cave.

The temperature was so extreme that even the void itself faintly rippled.

Besides that.

The aura of savagery about it made it look incomparably terrifying.

That overwhelmingly domineering, terrifying pressure.

Was in no way inferior to a Heavenly Being Realm expert!

It was even, if anything, stronger still!!

Roar!!!

As if it had spotted Ximen Wudi in the void.

The Fire Qilin suddenly raised its head and let out a brutal, savage roar at him.

Its enormous eyes were filled with bloodlust.

"Only late-stage Heavenly Being strength?"

Ximen Wudi's eyes flickered with a hint of disappointment.

Despite the Fire Qilin's current savage state, its full power could rival the early Mythical Realm.

But to him,

this cultivation level was still too low.

It had none of the strength befitting the Four Divine Beasts.

"Forget it."

"Still, it is a Fire Qilin."

"Taking it back as a good-luck charm wouldn't be bad."

"Besides, there's still plenty of the pill I gave Feilu left."

He shook his head.

Ximen Wudi, having made his decision,

lightly lifted his foot.

One step forward.

Mysterious heavenly and earthly forces formed beneath his feet.

When his foot landed, his entire body had already appeared not far before the Fire Qilin.

Fortunately, no one was here.

Otherwise,

they would surely have cried out in shock.

Because,

wasn't Ximen Wudi's move precisely akin to the mythic arts of shrinking distance and turning咫尺 into天涯?!!

Roar~~

Seeing him suddenly appear before it,

the Fire Qilin was utterly startled.

It instinctively stepped back, letting out a warning roar.

The flames around it flared in response.

"Hmph~"

Watching its wariness,

Ximen Wudi sneered.

He extended his palm and slowly reached toward its head.
