Lin Feng listened to the earth-shattering cheers coming from the surrounding cells and felt a lot better. However, Lin Feng did not say anything and closed his eyes to meditate. Since he could not leave, he had no other choice but to stay here one day at a time.
"Lin Feng, come out with me."
Lin Feng didn't know how much time had passed when a voice reached his ears. Lin Feng opened his eyes and raised his head to look at the middle-aged man who was standing outside the cell. He was surprised, he didn't understand why he was there.
The middle-aged man was none other than Yan Zhen, the father of Yan Tianjiao, the Monarch of San Gu Nation. He was the only High-Level Ultimate God in San Gu Nation with a very high status. However, that was only limited to San Gu Nation. Yan Zhen was only a High-Level Ultimate God outside of San Gu Nation.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Feng looked at Yan Zhen coldly and said in a cold tone. Lin Feng originally had some respect for the Scattered Nation's Monarch, but after beating him up, Lin Feng no longer had a good impression of him.
Yan Zhen did not care about Lin Feng's attitude towards him because he could understand Lin Feng's anger. Lin Feng must have been burning with anger and was on the verge of exploding. Otherwise, he would not have killed a Monarch of the Scattered Nation and would not have made things difficult for a disciple who was delivering food.
Yan Zhen had seen all of this. Apart from the fact that the Orthodoxy had been killed by Lin Feng, which had filled his heart with rage and made him want to kill Lin Feng, his heart had already calmed down a lot.
"You should understand that I am not targeting you." Yan Zhen looked at Lin Feng with a complicated expression. He really wanted to explain everything so that Lin Feng would not hate him and would not know who the real enemy was.
"Is there a difference?"
However, when Lin Feng heard Yan Zhen, he just smiled coldly. Lin Feng didn't care about Yan Zhen's words anymore. As long as Yan Zhen had imprisoned him, he didn't know who Lin Feng was, he was already Lin Feng's enemy. He didn't need to think about it.
Yan Zhen looked at Lin Feng's ice-cold face, he was worried. He knew that Lin Feng hated him, otherwise, he wouldn't look like that. However, he had no choice but to do that for the sake of the safety of millions of people. He would rather let Lin Feng down than let millions of people die for no reason.
Yan Zhen did not care if Lin Feng would forgive him or not. He told Lin Feng everything from the beginning to the end, including how the three High-Level Ultimate Gods from the Lun Bi Clan were against Lin Feng. If he did not do so, the tens of millions of people in the kingdom would be killed. He had no choice but to do so for the sake of the kingdom.
When Lin Feng heard Yan Zhen's explanation, he understood what was going on. He finally knew who was trying to kill him. Was it the Lun Bi Clan? Lunbi Empire?
Lin Feng and the Lun Bi Clan hated each other. Emperor Yu's memories had been stolen by Lun Bi Ba, which was a humiliation to Emperor Yu. Lin Feng, as a disciple, had to avenge his teacher.
However, it was hard for Lin Feng to imagine Lun Bi Ba as an enemy. Lun Bi Ba probably did not know who Lin Feng was and would not care about a person who came from a small place. Why would they send three High-Level Ultimate Gods to kill him? Moreover, if they wanted to kill him to avoid future troubles, why didn't they just send a High-Level Ultimate God to kill him?
Lin Feng was very surprised by Lun Bi Ba's actions. Therefore, Lin Feng was a little skeptical when Yan Zhen said those words and doubted the truth of the matter.
Yan Zhen did not know how to explain to Lin Feng. Moreover, he did not know anything else. He only received a joint warning from the three High-Level Ultimate Gods that they would destroy the entire kingdom if he did not punish Lin Feng severely. He could not bear the consequences and could only agree to it.
"It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, I have to say that it's true." Yan Zhen smiled faintly and said to Lin Feng. He was a High-Level Ultimate God and could ignore a Low-Level Ultimate God's feelings. If it was not for his daughter, Yan Tianjiao, and Lin Feng winning the Grand Tournament, he would not have bothered to talk nonsense with Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's death wasn't a big deal to him, he just felt guilty, that's all. He didn't want such a strong cultivator to die. It was a great loss for the small country, but it was impossible for the small country to have such a strong cultivator because Lin Feng's heart was already broken.
Therefore, Yan Zhen had to take a gamble in order to save everything and for the sake of the obsession in his heart. If Lin Feng managed to escape from death, he would have done a good deed. Lin Feng would not make things difficult for San Guo in the future and might even help San Guo overcome its difficulties. However, if Lin Feng did not die, Yan Zhen would feel even more relieved as he had completed the three High-Level Ultimate Gods' orders and San Guo would be safe.
"Lin Feng, come with me. I'll take you to a place. It's up to you whether you live or die." Yan Zhen did not want to talk nonsense with Lin Feng anymore and shouted in a deep voice. With a wave of his left hand, he unlocked the cell's iron door and untied the special iron chains on Lin Feng's hands and feet.
Lin Feng looked at Yan Zhen's facial expression. He didn't understand what Yan Zhen was thinking but since he had already become a prisoner, whatever Yan Zhen did didn't really matter to Lin Feng. Lin Feng didn't want to get to the bottom of the matter. He stood up and followed Yan Zhen. One in front, one behind the other, they left the dungeon.
The 'villains' who were locked up in the other cells were overjoyed when they saw Yan Zhen taking Lin Feng away. They all hoped that Lin Feng would release them one day so they could reunite with their families. They had been locked up in there for hundreds of years and had thought about killing themselves more than once. However, they were unwilling to do so and had endured until now.
Lin Feng followed behind Yan Zhen. After Yan Zhen walked out of the dungeon, he flew straight up into the sky and flew towards the north of the kingdom. Lin Feng also rose into the sky and followed behind Yan Zhen. He had no intention of escaping as he knew very well that his chances of escaping from Yan Zhen, a High-Level Ultimate God, was almost zero. Therefore, he did not want to waste his efforts.
Yan Zhen led Lin Feng flying in the sky. After flying for two hours, Lin Feng could see the desolate desert. Occasionally, he could see one or two green plants, but they were dying due to lack of nutrition.
This was the border of the kingdom, but it was not a border stronghold. Instead, it was a cliff stronghold opposite the border stronghold. Due to the fact that there were cliffs and precipitous cliffs made of yellow sand, there were signs of loosening when one stepped on them, but one would not fall down.
Lin Feng stood on such a piece of land while Yan Zhen stopped on a yellow sand rock that was at least a kilometer in front of him. Lin Feng looked down at the pitch-black cliff. Apart from the dust that was rising from the top, nothing else could be seen.
"This is the Yellow Sand Cliff of the cliff stronghold. It's said that the body of an ancient almighty was buried here 100,000 years ago along with his burial palace. It might be underneath the ground, but the kingdom has mobilized a lot of manpower and resources, but they still could not find the tomb."
"Do you see the pitch-black cliff under my feet? It's not natural, it's a gigantic hole that we dug for tens of thousands of years. It's no less than fifty thousand meters deep. In order to hide this fact, we called it the Yellow Sand Cliff, but actually, it's the hope of our kingdom."
Yan Zhen was standing on the yellow sand rock and looking at Lin Feng in a complicated way. He sounded a bit sad. Lin Feng could sense that this was a secret that Yan Zhen hadn't told him for many years, but Lin Feng didn't understand why he was telling Lin Feng.
"I know that you don't understand why I brought you here. I'll tell you the truth, I want to make a deal with you, but I don't know if you'll agree or not."
Yan Zhen was fixedly staring at Lin Feng. He didn't waste time talking nonsense, he just wanted to make a deal with Lin Feng. He had to make a deal with Lin Feng for the sake of his kingdom.
When Lin Feng heard Yan Zhen's words, it seemed like he cared a lot about the ancient almighty cultivator. He wanted to find the underground palace, but they were powerless. Could it be that Lin Feng had to rely on him?
Lin Feng was surprised. What could he do to an underground palace that couldn't be found even after tens of thousands of years of digging?
As expected, Lin Feng's guess was confirmed.
"I want to make a deal with you. If you find the tomb, I'll let you go. I'll also change your identity and send you to Lang Ye City. I'm friends with a clan leader there, so I can protect you for a while."
"It doesn't matter if you agree or not. I'm not going to let you leave unless you find the underground tomb."
Yan Zhen seemed to have predicted that Lin Feng would be able to find the underground tomb. He did something outrageous by setting up a formation around the tomb. Anyone below the High-Level Ultimate God level would not be able to escape from those formations. Lin Feng could feel a strong murderous aura as he looked at the constantly flashing golden light around him.
Yan Zhen was serious. If Lin Feng didn't find the ancient tomb, he wouldn't be able to survive. He would be killed by the deployment spells, but if Lin Feng found the ancient tomb, he would be able to become a member of Lang Ye City and become a member of Lang Ye City.
Lin Feng knew that he had no other choice. He would die either way, so it was better to take a risk.
"I agree."
