Chapter 27: The Ownership of the Key

  "It's finally almost here, I don't know if the key has been taken away, but it's already delayed a lot of time on the road. Thanks to Yifeng Lao Da, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to break through to low-level Lingyun Master so quickly. Hehe, especially now that I also have my favorite green Lingyun gas, and when I meet Deng Baozi again, I won't be as embarrassed as before."

  Han Dong smiled happily, this time he also gained a lot, if it wasn't for Duan Yifeng he might not have gotten even one fifth-grade spiritual grass, let alone three, now breaking through to low-level Lingyun Master was naturally very exciting.

  "Don't worry, since you're the boss, I won't treat you unfairly. Hang out with me and you'll definitely have meat to eat, haha!" Duan Yifeng chuckled and looked at Meng Qian beside him, then asked: "Maybe we'll run into your friend Liu soon, what do you plan to do?"

  Meng Qian thought for a moment and said, "It was you who saved me, and it was also your help that allowed me to break through to the low-level Lingyun Master, and I got my favorite red Lingyun gas. So if you are enemies, I naturally won't be an enemy with you, but I also can't be an enemy with my senior brother, so please understand me, I will not take sides and remain neutral."

  Duan Yifeng nodded in satisfaction, apparently pleased with Meng Qian's decision. Although he had saved others before, Liu Yu and she were after all from the same sect and had cultivated together, so their feelings for each other naturally ran deep. No matter what Meng Qian decided, he wouldn't blame her.

  Meng Qian stole a glance at Duan Yifeng and said in a low voice, "You've also broken through to intermediate Lingyun Master now, and you have the blue Lingyun energy. My brother Liu is definitely no match for you, so if the key hasn't been taken by someone else, your chances of getting it are the greatest. If Brother Liu gets the key, I might accompany him to Longyin Abyss to broaden my horizons. But if you get it...I hope..."

  Meng Qian paused for a moment, biting her lip before continuing: "I hope I can also call you Lao Da, join you guys, and just take me to Long Yin Quan once."

  Duan Yifeng did not expect Meng Qian to say such a thing, but when he saw the pleading look in her eyes, he agreed without hesitation.

  Meng Qian saw Duan Yifeng nodding in agreement and finally let out a sigh of relief.

  Duan Yifeng, Han Dong and Meng Qian broke through to the low-level Lingyun Master realm after using their own three and two fifth-grade spiritual grasses respectively.

  Duan Yi Feng's body still had three six-grade Lavender and a six-grade Crimson Fruit, plus seven five-grade Spiritual Grasses. Of course, he also made a breakthrough. As for the two six-grade Beneficial Soul Grasses, Duan Yi Feng decided to use them after leaving the secret realm, anyway, he couldn't expose the existence of the ring.

  Although Duan Yifeng's power increased greatly after his breakthrough, the River of Condensing Spirit inside him became even wider and more substantial, yet it still pained him.

  After all, he who had seven rivers of concentration needed to break through and definitely required more energy, so he spent five stalks of fifth-grade spiritual grass and two stalks of sixth-grade hundred fragrant grass before breaking through to intermediate Lingyun Master. Fortunately, these spiritual grasses were also blue, which wouldn't expose his secret.

  Duan Yifeng gathered all the essence of colors in the sixth river of condensing spirit, allowing the essence of colors to catalyze and mutate the Lingyun gas in that river.

  There was only one stalk of Basilisk's Breath and a thousand-year-old Crimson Fruit, as well as two stalks of Five-Grade Spirit Grass. Duan Yi Feng couldn't help but laugh wryly, thinking about how he had used so many good things to break through previously, it was a bit painful. Alas, this guy really didn't want to pay the price and just wanted to reap the rewards.

  Duan Yifeng walked suddenly heard the sound of fighting in front, and his mood improved. At least it proved that everyone was still competing for the key. Since they were still competing, he still had a chance, and the opportunity was great. Now he didn't think Liu Ru could pose much threat to himself. He was glad that after the three broke through, they all rushed with full force, and their strength increased, so did their speed, which made them just in time.

  "Bang, bang, bang" sounds came, telling the intense battle. Liu Ru had the upper hand, and Lin Ru's mouth corner already had a trace of blood.

  Song Qijiang was quite stuck, Deng Fa had flying divine soldiers, which could dodge and flash in the air, but unfortunately, the level of the divine soldiers was too low, so the flight height was limited, and the height was within the range of others' attacks, which made him feel suffocated.

  So these two people fought back and forth but couldn't tell who was winning or losing, they were just exhausted with sweat all over their heads, the intense mental focus was already unbearable.

  "Haha, everyone is still here waiting for me! Thank you all so much, I'm glad I made it on time."

  A loud burst of laughter brought the fight to a halt, and for a moment, the entire scene fell silent, without a single sound.

  Three people appeared in the distance, two men and one woman, who were exactly Duan Yifeng and his companions.

  "You're here too, you little scamp!"

  The first to react was Deng Huanzi, who had been injured before. When he saw Duan Yifeng's current cultivation as a mid-level Lingyun Master, he immediately understood that Duan Yifeng had already become a mid-level Lingyun Master, and he was definitely not his opponent. Moreover, the fact that so many fifth- and sixth-grade spiritual medicines were snatched by Duan Yifeng made him guess even more.

  Song Qijin looked at Duan Yifeng: "You little guy broke through to intermediate Lingyun Warrior, quite a harvest."

  Lin Ru looked at Duan Yifeng without speaking, she hadn't expected that three people would suddenly arrive, this was quite exciting.

  "Little sister, how did you end up with them? Oh, you've also broken through to the Lingyun Master level, congratulations!" Seeing that Meng Qian was safe and sound, and had even made a breakthrough, Liu Ru's worries were alleviated.

  "I also broke through, but it seems like no one noticed me." Han Dong said somewhat indignantly, he was directly ignored.

  "Liu Shixiong, Luo Si Te wanted to humiliate and kill me. Luckily, this Duan Gongzi helped me escape." Meng Qian's eyes sparkled with tears as she recalled the unpleasant incident.

  "What? Roster actually wanted to do something like that to you, this bastard, where is he? I'm going to kill him." Liu Ru suddenly became furious, a hundred times more furious than an angry little bird.

  "Luosi has already been killed by Duan Yifeng Gongzi, Master Brother doesn't need to be so angry, I'm fine."

  "What! Roster is a low-level Lingyun Master, was he really killed by this kid? Weren't you three supposed to be working together?" Liu Ru exclaimed in surprise.

  "It's just a roast, now even ten wouldn't be enough for me to kill, haha, Brother Liu doesn't need to take it too seriously." Duan Yifeng suddenly walked out, picking his nose.

  "Little one, first of all I want to thank you for killing Roste, but your victory has gone to your head. Do you need me to help you sober up?" Although Liu Ru was surprised that Duan Yifeng had killed Roste, he didn't think that Duan Yifeng was an opponent on the same level as himself.

  Duan Yifeng seemed to not understand, smiling and saying: "Since Brother Liu wants to thank me, then give me the red stone from inside the ancient tower. It's just a slightly better-looking stone, you shouldn't mind, right?"

  Lin Ru couldn't help but laugh after hearing that. This kid's words were pleasant to hear, but a slightly better-looking red stone was just a simple stone, would it really make so many people fight for it?

  Deng Pangzi walked up to Lin Ru's side and whispered: "We won't fight for that broken stone anymore, let them have it."

  Lin Ru couldn't understand why Deng was fighting with him just now, but suddenly gave up. He nodded anyway.

  "Sorry, Brother Duan, other things can be negotiated, but this one is non-negotiable, I must get the key."

  "Alas," sighed Duan Yifeng, and he walked forward directly. Deng Huangzi and Lin Ruo actually made way for him, letting Duan Yifeng pass through directly.

  Liu Ruyan's eyes gradually cooled down, and the Lingyun gas in his hand gradually condensed, the energy fluctuations becoming more and more intense, making Song Qijiang behind him frown involuntarily.

  This willow is obviously going to knock down Duan Yifeng for a while, because the expression of Duan Yifeng who has been ignoring him makes him very unhappy, and he really needs to get that key.

  Duan Yifeng walked closer and closer, suddenly Duan Yifeng let out a loud roar, the Lingyun energy on his fist gathered instantly, the blue Lingyun energy looked very strange.

  Liu Ru's palm shot out and directly collided with Duan Yifeng's fist.

  A white figure flew out directly and was blown into the lake, splashing a big wave of water. Under everyone's astonished gaze, Duan Yifeng stepped onto the stone bench in the lake.

  Liu Ru flew up from the lake to the shore, with a hint of resentment in his eyes. However, the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth made him realize that the gap between him and Duan Yifeng was not small, because Duan Yifeng didn't even take a step back, yet he got hurt quite badly.

  Song Qijin stood silently there, watching Duan Yifeng getting closer and closer to the ancient tower, but he didn't make any move, apparently knowing that things had gone too far.

  "Haha, Liu Ru, it's so satisfying to see you frustrated! Haha, two days ago he hadn't broken through yet and I was beaten until I spat blood. Now that he has broken through, I knew he wasn't simple. Haha, you're such a proud person, how does it feel to be frustrated? Aren't you a genius?"

  Lin Ru finally knew why Deng Hua called her to give up, and she felt very amused in her heart. This fatty must have lost and was not satisfied, so he didn't remind Liu Ru, letting Liu Ru also get beaten, trying to find a balance in his heart.

  Liu Ru was not speaking, at this time Meng Qian walked to Liu Ru's side and whispered something. Liu Ru listened first with a slightly furrowed brow, then nodded, her eyes gazing at Duan Yi Feng's back.

  Duan Yifeng pushed open the ancient wooden door of the ancient tower, and on a square stone platform, there was a red light flashing, which was an oval crystal like a stone. Duan Yifeng took a look and then reached out to take it into his own hands.

  "Haha, now that high-grade yellow divine sword and one thousand spirit stones are mine, I've become a rich man."

  Han Dong and others looked at Duan Yifeng, thinking that this guy was really a money-loving person, but it's also somewhat enviable.

  Duan Yifeng was delighted, but suddenly the key in his hand shone brighter and brighter with a red light, and the stars on the tower were spinning rapidly.

  As the stars rotated, Duan Yi Feng saw Deng Hui Zi and others disappear one by one from far to near. When everyone had disappeared, a man's voice came into Duan Yi Feng's ears.

  "Congratulations on obtaining the key to enter Longyin Abyss. Please go to Longyin Abyss in Thousand Yuan Dynasty a month later, hoping you can gain great opportunities. You are the one with the largest difference between internal energy and actual level over the years, and also the one that I couldn't see through. Hope this time you will be favored."

  As soon as the sentence ended, Duan Yifeng didn't even have time to ask what was going on before he felt a huge force pulling him away, and he couldn't resist at all. Then he felt another flash in front of his eyes, and Duan Yifeng also disappeared directly.
