In the central area of Emperor Wu's secret treasure.
On the second level of Qing Feng Palace, two figures walked side by side. They shuttled through every corner of the second level as though they were looking for something.
"There's nothing on the second level … Isn't that Emperor Wu a little too stingy?"
The red-clothed young man furrowed his brows and cursed.
Unlike the red-clad young man, the blue-clad young man next to him had a calm expression. His eyes were cold as though he did not hear the red-clad young man's words.
If someone was here and saw these two young men, they would definitely be shocked.
This was because these two young men looked exactly the same!
Their identities were obvious. They were the Nangong brothers from the Five Element Sect.
Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, the sound of wind whistling reverberated from the sky, causing Nangong Yi's expression to change.
As for Nangong Chen, he reached out his hand at lightning speed and grabbed in the direction of the sound.
"What's that?!"
Nangong Yi, who was slow to react, could not help but look at Nangong Chen curiously.
Nangong Chen, who had a calm expression and a cold gaze, had a complete change of expression when he opened his hand that grabbed the item that fell. A look of surprise appeared on his face.
There was a hint of excitement in the depth of his eyes.
"Profundity … Profundity Fragment?!"
Looking at the two fragments in Nangong Chen's hand, Nangong Yi was stunned for a moment before he gulped hard.
One of the two fragments in Nangong Chen's hand was shrouded in purple energy while the other was shrouded in khaki energy.
The Thunder Profundity Fragment!
The Earth Profundity Fragment!
Before the Nangong brothers could recover from their surprise, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice entered their ears clearly.
"Congratulations, lucky young man. It's because someone failed to retrieve the three Profundity Fragments from my body in time after opening the fifth level of Qing Feng Palace … "
"For this reason, the Inscription Formation that I left behind activated on its own and drew the two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments out of my body to an activated drop point on the fourth floor of Qing Feng Palace."
"I've set up densely packed drop points on the fourth floor of Qing Feng Palace with an Inscription Formation … Once the Inscription Formation is activated, the drop points will be activated automatically."
The voice that entered the ears of the Nangong brothers was not unfamiliar to them.
They could tell that this was the voice of the Emperor Wu expert who left behind the Secret Treasure of Emperor Wu.
Even the palace they were in now was left behind by Emperor Wu.
After regaining their senses from the Martial Emperor's message, Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi could not help but look at each other. For a moment, they could see the astonishment in each other's eyes.
'This works too? '
The fourth floor of Qing Feng Palace had drop points set up by Emperor Wu with an Inscription Formation. Everyone on the fourth floor could activate the drop points?
The two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments would appear at one of the drop points through the Inscription Formation?
And now, it just so happened to appear at the drop points that they had activated?
"W-our luck is too heaven-defying, isn't it?"
Nangong Yi gulped hard when he regained his senses. His breathing was rapid as he spoke with some difficulty.
"Yes."
This time, Nangong Chen nodded in agreement, which was rare.
"But … Why isn't it the Water Profundity Fragment?"
Nangong Yi said in a slightly frantic manner.
Of the two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments, one was the Earth Profundity Fragment, and the other was the Thunder Profundity Fragment.
However, Nangong Chen could use the Earth Profundity Fragment.
As for the Thunder Profundity Fragment, it was destined to be handed over to the sect.
"I wonder which unlucky bastard did not retrieve the three Profundity Fragments from Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body in time after activating the fifth floor of Qing Feng Palace."
Soon, Nangong Yi seemed to know what was done was done. He was no longer angry. When he recalled the person that Qing Feng Emperor Wu mentioned, he gloated.
"If he wasn't unlucky, the two Profundity Fragments would've been his, not ours."
It was rare for Nangong Chen to say such a long sentence.
Compared to the excitement of the Nangong brothers, Duan Lingtian who had ascended to the fifth floor from the fourth floor of Qing Feng Palace was very, very, very depressed.
All of this originated from the message that Qing Feng Emperor Wu left behind.
"Young man, although you've arrived at the fifth floor of Qing Feng Palace, you didn't come up after activating the fifth floor …"
"For this reason, the Inscription Formation that I left behind has guided the two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments from my body to the fourth floor of Qing Feng Palace to find their new owner."
Duan Lingtian almost threw up blood when he heard Qing Feng Emperor Wu's words.
He didn't come up after activating the fifth floor of Qing Feng Palace?
It was because he was worried that the fifth floor of Qing Feng Palace would be dangerous. That was why he planned to ascend to the fifth floor after his cultivation base had broken through and his injuries had healed.
"If I knew there was no test on the fifth floor, I wouldn't have taken so long to ascend."
Duan Lingtian clenched his teeth as he looked at the skeleton covered in a green robe that was close to him.
The two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments in Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body were gone just like that because he had arrived a little late.
As soon as he ascended to the fifth floor of Qing Feng Palace, he noticed that Qing Feng Emperor Wu did not set up any test on the fifth floor.
There was only one skeleton sitting cross-legged nearby. It was Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body.
Although Qing Feng Emperor Wu had passed away many years ago, his skeleton was well-preserved. He maintained a cross-legged cultivation posture, giving off an aura of vicissitudes.
After taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian took out the only remaining Profundity Fragment in Qing Feng Emperor Wu's body.
Unlike the Monarch Stage Profundity Fragment, this Profundity Fragment did not glow with energy.
Duan Lingtian held the Profundity Fragment in his hand. There seemed to be wisps of deep green wind surrounding it, emitting waves of terrifying aura.
Duan Lingtian felt a wave of pressure when he was touched by the waves of aura. He could not help but take two steps back in shock.
"This is … the Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment?"
After taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian studied the Profundity Fragment in his hand seriously. He began to search Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory and soon obtained his answer.
The Profundity Fragment in his hand was the Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment!
"According to Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory, this Profundity Fragment should be a Second Level Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment!"
After searching Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory again, Duan Lingtian obtained his answer.
The Second Level Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment!
At this moment, Duan Lingtian's breathing quickened.
"With this Second Level Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment, it means that when I comprehend the Ninth Level Monarch Stage Wind Profundity in the future, I'll be able to comprehend the Emperor Stage Wind Profundity in one fell swoop!"
Duan Lingtian was extremely excited.
After half a day, Duan Lingtian finally calmed down a little. However, his face was still filled with endless excitement and joy.
At this moment, he had completely forgotten about the other two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments.
In his world, there was only the Second Level Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment left.
Gasp!
After taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian put the Second Level Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment away into his Spatial Ring with trembling hands. Only then did his excited emotions completely calm down.
"This is Qing Feng Palace's fifth level … There should be other treasures, right?"
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian began to search Qing Feng Palace's fifth level, but he found nothing in the end.
Apart from the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment, there was nothing else.
"I'm still too greedy … This Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment is comparable to all the other treasures left behind by Qing Feng Emperor Wu."
A smile appeared on Duan Lingtian's face when he thought about the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment.
"I wonder who obtained the two Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments … However, since I've already obtained the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragments, it's time for me to leave."
With just a thought, Duan Lingtian left Qing Feng Palace's fifth level and returned to the fourth level.
Subsequently, he went down the stone staircase that Zuo Yue had left from. "I wonder if I'll meet Zuo Yue again … If I do, I'll definitely kill him!"
Cold killing intent flashed in Duan Lingtian's eyes.
Duan Lingtian soon arrived at Qing Feng Palace's first level as he walked down the stone staircase. Before he could react, he had already entered the Illusory Formation.
Under Qing Feng Emperor Wu's guidance, Duan Lingtian walked out of the Illusory Formation and left Qing Feng Palace.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Duan Lingtian heard a familiar voice as soon as he walked out of Qing Feng Palace.
When he lifted his head and looked over, he realized Huang Daniu was already waiting outside. Huang Daniu's eyes lit up when he saw him coming out.
"Hmm?"
Soon after, Duan Lingtian noticed something else.
Not far away from Huang Daniu, a young man was hovering in the air. His expression was extremely grave.
When Huang Daniu greeted him, the young man's body began to tremble as if Huang Daniu was some kind of monster.
"He … He's a Five Element Sect's disciple?"
A moment later, Duan Lingtian recognized the young man. "He seems to be a Fire Peak's disciple as well."
He was no stranger to Fire Peak.
Hu Fei, the person he killed when he first entered Emperor Wu's secret treasure, was a Fire Peak's disciple in the Five Element Sect. Moreover, he was the direct disciple of the Peak Master of Fire Peak.
"What's wrong?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Huang Daniu and asked curiously.
"Hehe … Duan Lingtian, how are you going to thank me this time?"
Huang Daniu chuckled.
"Thank you? Thank you for what? "
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian could not help but be stunned as he asked in confusion.
"What if I say … I found the person who spread the fake news about you obtaining the Profundity Fragment?"
The smile on Huang Daniu's face grew even brighter.
"You found that person?!"
Duan Lingtian could not help but be shocked by Huang Daniu's words.
