Chapter 401

Su Hao wasn't interested in this artwork, but rather in the Endless Stone on the lotus platform. Among the materials he scavenged from the sea, there was no such stone.

This kind of stone is extremely rare and generally useless; it's very rare on the market. Only a few major immortal sects that produce secret scrolls collect a small amount for making secret scrolls.

Since Su Hao learned about the existence of secret scrolls, he had a great interest in these magical instruments that could attract each other in pairs, thinking about when to collect materials to study them carefully.

Unexpectedly, just arriving at Ling Mountain Province, he encountered an ancient type of 'secret scroll'.

When the short-bearded cultivator heard Su Hao asking about the price, he couldn't help but be surprised: "You want it? Although it looks useless, it's not cheap."

The short-bearded cultivator held up five fingers and said, "I won't consider it for less than fifty pieces of spiritual stones."

This momentum made Feng Ling tremble: "So expensive, it's like robbing!"

Su Hao nodded, "Okay, fifty pieces of spiritual stones then."

Short-bearded cultivator: "???"

Feng Ling: "???"

Just then, two familiar blood reactions entered Su Hao's perception.

"Huh, Yumu and Yujie?" Su Hao couldn't help but look outside the Qianfeng Assembly.

Feng Ling also followed Su Hao's gaze and looked into the distance: "What's wrong, Feng Wei?"

She knew that Su Hao's eyesight was extraordinary.

Su Hao said, "Yumu and Yujie, the two senior sisters, are back, followed by a large group behind them! They're coming aggressively."

"Boom—"

The ground where Su Hao stood suddenly shook violently, as if someone had detonated a large amount of explosives on the mountainside, causing Su Hao and Feng Ling, who were caught off guard, to stumble.

"What's going on?" Feng Ling subconsciously activated her defensive shield, leaped up, and floated above the ground.

The stall owner also reacted quickly, reaching out and wrapping the objects on the stall in a piece of cloth, lifting them up, and reaching out to grab the Endless Lotus Platform in Su Hao's hand.

Su Hao stepped aside.

The short-bearded cultivator's face immediately darkened, and he said in a suppressed voice, "What do you want? Return the platform to me within two breaths, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Su Hao didn't say anything either, reaching into his arms and then taking it out.

"Clang—"

Su Hao pulled out a handful of milky white spiritual stones from his arms. Each one was as big as a thumb because Su Hao's hands were too small to hold them all, they fell to the ground with a clatter.

This scene not only stunned the short-bearded man but also stunned Feng Ling flying beside him!

Her mind was full of: "Huh? When did Feng Wei have so many spiritual stones in his arms?"

Su Hao simply nodded and said, "There seem to be only twenty-something here, not quite enough!"

After saying that, he reached into his arms. When his hand came out, another handful of spiritual stones fell out, making a clattering sound as they hit the ground.

Then Su Hao said, "I left in a hurry and didn't have time to pack the spiritual stones properly. Please forgive me. These spiritual stones are for you, senior. Fifty pieces, no more, no less. And the Endelss Lotus Platform is mine."

"Boom—"

There was another loud noise, and the ground shook violently again. The three who were prepared were fine.

"Who dares to cause trouble at my Qianfeng Assembly!"

The voice was like a bell, rolling out, clearly audible to everyone around.

Feng Ling immediately said, "It's Masters Wu Shen! Master Wu Shen has come out!"

At this point, the entire Qianfeng Assembly was already in chaos. The cultivators who came here all summoned their escape light and flew away in all directions, while the ordinary people screamed and hid in corners.

Everyone knew that something like this happening at the Qianfeng Assembly meant trouble. It meant that other high-level cultivators had come knocking. If they didn't escape or find a place to hide quickly, they would definitely be affected.

High-level cultivators' battles have always been earth-shattering, with no distinction between friend and foe. Who would be spared then?

The short-bearded cultivator thought for a moment, quickly took the spiritual stones handed over by Su Hao, and then swiftly picked up the fallen spiritual stones from the ground and put them away in a bag.

"Goodbye!" After leaving a word, he turned into an escape light and flew away.

Feng Ling said anxiously, "Feng Wei, we don't know what's happening at the Qianfeng Assembly. This is not something we two Foundation Establishment cultivators can get involved in. Let's leave here first."

Su Hao got what he wanted, feeling pleased. "Okay!"

Su Hao jumped into the air, the Universal Knife flew out, slid under Su Hao's feet, and followed Feng Ling as they flew away from the Qianfeng Assembly.

After they flew out, they took in the surrounding scenes and finally understood what had happened.

At this time, the surroundings of the Qianfeng Assembly were already filled with countless cultivators, numbering in the hundreds, including Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul cultivators. They were intercepting the fleeing cultivators from the Qianfeng Assembly. Once someone flew out of the Qianfeng Assembly, they would immediately be attacked by these cultivators.

And Wu Shen Elder, who Feng Ling had high hopes for, was currently fighting against three Nascent Soul cultivators in the sky. The more they fought, the farther away they went, looking precarious, with their own safety at risk.

Feng Ling and Su Hao had just flown out of the Qianfeng Assembly, and they were immediately targeted. A Golden Core cultivator with two Foundation Establishment cultivators flew towards them.

Seeing this scene, Feng Ling couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, immediately turned to Su Hao and said, "Feng Wei, the way ahead is blocked. Let's return to the mountain! I've also learned a earth escape technique, which can help us escape from within the mountain!"

Su Hao followed Feng Ling as she changed direction and returned to the Qianfeng Assembly.

Su Hao asked in surprise, "Master, what kind of escape technique have you learned?"

Feng Ling squeezed out an awkward smile and said, "Not much, just eight escape techniques in total, all taught by my master."

Su Hao was speechless. "Could it be that all your time was spent practicing escape techniques? No wonder you're still at the Foundation Establishment realm!"

Feng Ling couldn't be bothered to argue with Su Hao. As a fairy, why would she engage in all that fighting? Isn't escaping just fine?

Just as Su Hao and Feng Ling were approaching Qianfeng Assembly, the Golden Core cultivator acted faster and intercepted them.

A dark red flow of light came towards Su Hao and Feng Ling.

"Be careful!" Feng Ling reminded loudly.

The Universal Knife under Su Hao's feet emitted a bright green light, and he swiftly shot out, precisely piercing through the middle of the dark red flow of light without stopping, sliding to the front of the Golden Core cultivator.

The Golden Core cultivator glared angrily, instantly activating all his protective shields, tightly enveloping himself inside.

"Puff—"

The green light passed through his chest without any hindrance, and the Golden Core cultivator stiffened in place.

With a flick of Su Hao's finger, the green light turned back, circling around the neck of the Golden Core cultivator.

A head immediately tilted to the side, then rolled off, and the headless body fell from the sky like a deflated balloon, blood spraying everywhere like rain.

Feng Ling's eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape. Even though she had witnessed the power of Su Hao's Universal Knife before, seeing it in action again still shook her.

"Unbelievable!"

Her desire for the Universal Sword grew even stronger. With such a magical tool in hand, wouldn't she have the final say in whether to fight or flee?

The two Foundation Establishment cultivators who were following behind the Golden Core cultivator blinked and saw their leader's head already rolling on the ground, their leader had met his end. For a moment, their souls trembled, and they urgently tried to stop.

But it was too late. A streak of green light floated lightly past, circled around the necks of the two, and their heads immediately fell off, followed by their bodies.

The green light reversed back and landed at Su Hao's feet.

"Master, don't just stand there, let's go!" Feng Ling snapped out of her daze and immediately flew towards Qianfeng Assembly. "Feng Wei, you're amazing!"

Su Hao casually said, "It's not a big deal. They were just too weak!"

However, Su Hao's frank words sounded modest to Feng Ling. She thought to herself, "I didn't expect Feng Wei, such a genius, to be so humble."

Many cultivators around had witnessed Su Hao instantly killing a Golden Core cultivator and two Foundation Establishment cultivators, and for a moment, their hair stood on end.

"What was that green light just now? Why was it so powerful that the Golden Core elder couldn't even match it?"

"Could it be a Nascent Soul elder?"

"Reliable information says that there is only one Nascent Soul cultivator in the Qianfeng Assembly! Now he's being intercepted by three Nascent Soul cultivators from the Sanlian Cai Feng Sect!"

"Nascent Soul my ass, those were clearly two little Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

"Foundation Establishment? How is that possible?"

"Have you lost your senses? Can't you distinguish between Foundation Establishment and Nascent Soul?"

"But..."

"Senses don't lie! It must be something peculiar about his magical tool! Maybe it's an ancient spiritual treasure!"

"Ancient spiritual treasure? Pfft! I didn't expect fellow cultivators to still believe in such things."

"Go seize it, and you'll find out, won't you?"

"Does fellow cultivator dare to challenge its power?"

"Two little Foundation Establishment realms, relying on a sharp magical tool to show off their might, what's there to be afraid of!"

"In that case, let's go together!"

Thus, six Golden Core realm cultivators locked onto Su Hao and Feng Ling's figures with their senses and turned into escape lights, chasing after them.
