Fresh blood sprayed out as Schiller's head was separated from his body. The excruciating pain filled him with boundless resentment and confusion.
In that split second, Schiller wanted to curse out loud. That was a suspected divine weapon! How could it be ineffective?!
Damn it!
At the last moment, apart from the pain, he wanted to curse out loud. How could it be like this? That sword hilt in his hand was absolutely extraordinary!
Although the remaining blade was less than three inches long, it should still possess the legendary might.
As the last holy knight of the Holy See, he knew full well how terrifying legendary weapons were. This was especially true for a divine weapon from two thousand years ago. It was destined to shake the world.
It might not be able to burn mountains and boil seas, but it was more than enough to kill a king level expert.
"Ah …"
At the last moment, he let out a mournful howl. Of course, it didn't come from his mouth because his head had already been separated from his body. It was a spiritual howl.
Chu Feng was also surprised. From his point of view, Schiller's final counterattack should've been quite destructive. Who would've thought that he would be able to decapitate him with a single strike!
That sword hilt? He was suspicious because Schiller was still staring at the hilt at the last moment. Did he think he could turn the tables with it?
"Eh?!"
All of a sudden, Chu Feng's pupils constricted. He felt that something was wrong. The radiance emitted by the sword hilt had changed and was rapidly intensifying. The silver light pulsed and gushed out like raging flames.
He hurriedly mobilized all his strength and attacked with all his might!
A shocking change occurred. The simple and unadorned sword hilt was as dazzling as the sun. It was so glaring that one could hardly open their eyes. Accompanied by Schiller's spiritual howl, the scene was somewhat terrifying.
Boom!
Chu Feng's left palm glowed as lightning runes condensed. A powerful thunderbolt blasted the hilt and engulfed Schiller's body.
Additionally, his flying sword shot out and slashed forward. It was like a scarlet flood dragon soaring through the sky, spiraling amidst the resplendent radiance.
At the same time, he retreated and took off the diamond chakram, ready to smash it at any moment.
The sound of thunder exploded and the scene was terrifying. The scorching lightning filled the area and clashed with the sword hilt like an avalanche or a tsunami.
In a trance, time froze, and time flowed in reverse. Scene after scene of terrifying scenes appeared.
Are they Holy Knights from the Holy Church? Troop after troop of people arrived at Mount Longhu, clad in radiant armor of an ancient style. Every single one of them possessed powerful auras. It was unknown why they were here, but they actually wanted to attack and occupy this place.
In the end, a few Daoist priests took action and fought against the Eastern Punitive Expedition from one or two thousand years ago. Unfortunately, the scene was blurry and some things could not be seen. In the end, this place was turned upside down.
Chu Feng immediately understood. In the distant past, the Eastern Punitive Expedition had come to Mount Longhu, but they had failed.
This was simply unimaginable. What era was that? There were actually no records of it being passed down. This was a hidden truth.
Mount Longhu was the ancestral court of Daoism and was also known as the Daoist Capital!
This was the capital of Taoism, and this kind of place was naturally very important. The fact that the Church had come on a punitive expedition really made one's imagination run wild. They really wanted to find out the truth of that period of time.
The Eastern Punitive Expedition was annihilated, all of them dying here.
Those scenes flashed by and eventually disappeared. The sword hilt was just a medium, recording some of the events of the past.
Boom!
The great explosion was very terrifying. The power of the lightning from Chu Feng's palm was too great. This was Mount Longhu's demon-subduing technique, and it was also the second time after so many years that the Daoist Capital and the Church were clashing.
Dang!
As the lightning interweaved, the flying sword was blasted away. This caused Chu Feng to feel apprehensive. His scarlet flying sword had always been unstoppable, but now it couldn't do anything to a broken sword hilt?
It was as resplendent as the blazing sun. The sword hilt could no longer be seen clearly, but it was extremely fierce. It was as if a hibernating sacred beast had awakened.
Chu Feng did not hesitate. He used all his strength and directly smashed out the diamond chakram. He poured all the mysterious energy in his body, causing its power to reach its peak.
Dong!
It was as if a great star from outer space had flown over and smashed into the earth. This was a kind of heaven and earth collapsing feeling as a great collision occurred.
The diamond chakram collided with the sword hilt. Boundless divine splendor covered the entire area, and it was accompanied by a terrifying sound like that of a tsunami.
In addition, hymns from the West could be heard. A divine aura pervaded the air and radiance illuminated everything.
Chu Feng retreated again and again at an extremely fast speed. He was afraid that something unexpected would happen because he could guess from the brief scene just now that this sword hilt had a great origin. It was a legendary weapon from the West.
In the end, the radiance disappeared and the scenery in the area became clearly visible.
Where was the sword hilt? Chu Feng was astonished. It had disappeared!
The diamond chakram was still snow-white. It hadn't flown far and fell into the large pit.
Chu Feng used his spiritual energy to draw it over with a swoosh. He held it in his hand and observed it carefully. It wasn't damaged at all. There wasn't even a scratch on its surface.
This made him heave a sigh of relief. One had to know that it was very likely that the weapon just now was a legendary weapon with a frightening origin.
He was starting to believe Yellow Cattle's words now. This thing was very evil!
Yellow Cattle had already changed his words. He felt that the diamond chakram's material was too mysterious, and calling it an ultimate waste wasn't exactly correct.
"Schiller, your death isn't to be regretted." Chu Feng looked at the bloodstains on the ground without any sympathy.
At the last moment, Schiller's broken body, including his decapitated head, exploded. The whole area was in a complete mess.
"Is he trying to open a dye shop?" The black yak and the others had finally arrived. All of them felt suffocated and their souls were throbbing.
They weren't used to this place. Mount Longhu naturally suppressed all beasts. Even the powerful Siberian Tiger and the Undead Phoenix found it hard to endure. They wanted nothing more than to leave this place.
If it wasn't for killing Schiller and plucking the divine fruits from the mountain peak, they wouldn't have set foot here.
"Schiller has been killed by you?!" The Manchurian Tiger's expression was somewhat comical. His hair was combed back just like the black yak's, but he was wearing a bright red monastic robe.
"I almost died myself. This place is very strange," Chu Feng said.
The lightning from before had caused him great suffering. Even now, his body still smelled of roasted meat. His body was charred black, and his flesh was lacerated. His injuries were serious.
Chu Feng was puzzled. He looked everywhere but couldn't find the sword hilt. That thing had been sent flying by the diamond chakram.
"Schiller is finally dead. We can finally breathe a sigh of relief." The Manchurian Tiger laughed loudly. Otherwise, he would feel uneasy and worried about being assassinated by Schiller.
The Undead Phoenix sighed. She had finally gotten her revenge, but she couldn't recover her memories. Her heart was filled with disappointment and frustration.
"Take a look. What is this place?" Chu Feng asked them to observe the pit.
There were many great demon corpses here, as well as many broken armors and skeletons of knights from the ancient church.
So much so that Chu Feng was shocked to find that there were some Western dragon skeletons within the pit. One could only imagine how bitter the war back then was. Even the dragon race had participated in it.
The Taoist capital, the capital of the Taoists. Western divine knights had once marched to the east and attacked the city.
"Why are they here?"
Yellow Cattle, the Manchurian Tiger, and the others were bewildered after hearing Chu Feng's narration of what had just happened. They were all guessing one after another.
They searched around and found many broken weapons in the pit. They should have possessed terrifying might in the past, but now, they had all lost their spirituality.
In any case, Schiller was dead. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and was incomparably happy.
As for the truth of the ancient times, there was no need to rush into it. It wouldn't affect them much at the moment.
"Could it be that there really is a legendary weapon hidden beneath Mount Longhu?" Chu Feng was suspicious.
He recalled the information Qi Honglin from the Pre-Qin Research Institute had divulged. There was a terrifying weapon that even ancient mythological characters praised and envied. It was suspected to be buried beneath Mount Longhu.
Next, they discussed whether or not to attack Mount Longhu.
Although the Manchurian Tiger and the Undead Phoenix were powerful, they were suppressed here and couldn't exert their full strength.
"Let's try attacking!"
Since they had already come this far, they weren't willing to turn back.
However, Yellow Cattle's expression changed after walking for a certain distance. They hadn't even reached halfway up the mountain when they sensed the geomagnetic fluctuations. There was a mysterious field energy in this area.
"Formations and fields are the same thing. They're extremely terrifying. They're mystical places created according to the terrain and can easily trap and kill experts." Yellow Cattle felt a headache coming on.
There was a mysterious field energy in this area. It was a name that Chu Feng and the others could understand — a formation.
"The field energy here is astonishing. It won't be easy to charge through!" Yellow Cattle was solemn.
As expected, they paid the price for their actions. The Manchurian Tiger was gravely injured and the Undead Phoenix coughed up blood.
That was because, in a ravine halfway up the mountain, essence flames of extreme yang were erupting. The Manchurian Tiger let out miserable cries. If not for the protection of his monastic robe, he would've lost half his life.
The Undead Phoenix was an expert in the dao of fire. She felt that she could charge through, but unexpectedly, she was struck by the geomagnetic lightning and was sent flying. Her bones and tendons were almost snapped.
With two experts with six severed shackles injured, they could only stop and go down the mountain.
They sighed. This place was simply too difficult to climb. As expected of the Ancestral Court of Taoism, the capital of a sect. The underground was complicated and the geomagnetic field energy was terrifying.
"Schiller is dead?!"
At the foot of the mountain, Xiong Kun and the others cried out in alarm.
Chu Feng, Yellow Cattle, and the others were disappointed. They were all regretful that they had failed to climb the mountain. However, the people at the foot of the mountain were in a different mood.
White Tiger and Lu Shiyun sighed in admiration. A peerless expert like Schiller had actually died in the hands of Chu Feng. It was truly shocking.
Linnoy also walked over and helped Chu Feng bandage his wounds. She couldn't remain calm after seeing Schiller die here.
Not far away, Yamen was completely disheartened. He had given up all hope. Now that Schiller was dead, who else could save him? That was unless the god behind him descended.
But as far as he knew, that god wasn't here yet. He didn't dare act blindly without thinking and needed time!
"There's a god behind you? Tell us everything you know! " Yellow Cattle personally interrogated Yamen. He was very concerned because he was also from the outer realms. He wanted to know which world this person came from.
Yamen had long since collapsed. He told them everything he knew without holding back. Unfortunately, he was only a pawn of this world. He was only serving that god and didn't know much.
Pfft!
In the end, the black yak gave him a quick death. He waved the violet copper blade in his hand and cut off his head.
Two days later, Linnoy left. She was called away by the people from Celestial Biology. It seemed there was something urgent.
On the third day, the Undead Phoenix bid farewell. She wanted to return to the West and search for her memories. Now that she had gotten her revenge, she didn't want to stay here any longer.
She had also tried to climb Mount Longhu but failed several times. There was no point in continuing the expedition.
Five days later, the Manchurian Tiger suffered another serious injury while climbing the mountain. This fellow, who cherished his life, immediately ran away after recovering from his injuries. He booked a flight to the West and prepared to find the old llama to apologize.
"Brothers, let's go. Follow the main force of Mount Kunlun to the Himalayas and explore that thunderous ancient temple. Don't waste your time here."
These were the Manchurian Tiger's words before he left. He urged Chu Feng and the two oxen to follow him to the West.
During this time, the clairvoyant, clairaudient, Ye Qingrou, and Chen Luoyan also arrived. But after witnessing the dangers and terror of Mount Longhu, they sighed and left with Xiong Kun and the White Tiger siblings.
Only Chu Feng, Yellow Cattle, and the black yak were left.
They planned to observe for a while longer and retreat if they couldn't find anything.
During this time, Chu Feng passed on the lightning symbol to the two oxen. He told them to study it and see if they could use it to ascend the mountain. Perhaps it was some sort of key.
It was also at this time that a shocking piece of news spread and caused a great commotion.
Some people said that Chu Feng had grasped a mysterious breathing technique that was reputed to be peerless. This allowed him to suppress experts of the same level.
