The people of Misty City were powerful beyond compare. Pan Hong had trapped Dongfang Yu with unfathomable magical arts and divine abilities, but the performance of another young cultivator from Misty City was even more shocking. He had actually blasted away an ancient bronze bell the size of a small mountain.
Amidst the deafening sound of the bell, the giant bronze bell was blasted directly towards the inn. The Dongfang family disciple who had attacked felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His figure swayed and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The ancient bronze bell was related to his aura. The ancient bell had suffered a great impact, and naturally, he was also shaken.
He desperately wanted to call back his magical weapon, but the power of the punch from the Floating City disciple was too great. For a moment, the giant bronze bell the size of a hill had actually escaped the control of the Dongfang family disciple.
The ancient bronze bell was wreathed in multicolored light and emitted a vast power fluctuation. If it had hit the inn, it would definitely have destroyed the entire inn in an instant.
The crowd of cultivators watching from afar could not help but exclaim. On the opposite street, Gu Fei was still as calm as before. He knew that the real experts of the Dongfang family had not come out yet.
If the young ones were beaten, the old ones would naturally jump out.
Sure enough, just as the ancient bronze bell was about to hit the wall of the inn, there was a 'bang!' Sound. The ancient bronze bell the size of a hill was blocked by an unfathomable power.
It was as if the giant bell had hit an invisible wall, and ripples visible to the naked eye spread out.
At this time, the young expert of the Dongfang family had already recovered. He hurriedly pointed at the ancient bronze bell, and the ancient bronze bell immediately flew back towards the young expert.
The ancient bronze bell shrank as it flew towards the young expert of the Dongfang family. The young expert opened his mouth and swallowed it.
It was obvious that this young expert of the Dongfang family was also a martial cultivator, and had already cultivated to the realm where he could store magical weapons into his body.
The magical weapons of martial cultivators were originally condensed and nourished by their own essential essence and magical power day and night. Martial cultivators with profound cultivation generally had the means to store magical weapons into their bodies.
Unlike Gu Fei's Weapon Fusion Refining Technique, which could be fused into one's flesh, blood, and bones, the Dharma treasures that could be kept in one's body were not like those of Gu Fei. Instead, one had to open up a place in one's body, and then wrap the Dharma treasures with one's Dharma powers and True Essence at all times, refining them into Natal Dharma treasures that were closely related to one's body.
Mist City's disciples, Pan Hong and the others, couldn't help changing their expressions when they saw their ancient bronze bell being blocked. Clearly, an expert had secretly taken action.
However, Pan Hong didn't stop because of this. The black light that enveloped Dongfang Yu was still shrinking, and no one could see Dongfang Yu's figure for a long time. The goal of Pan Hong and the others was very clear, and that was to establish their might.
However, everyone could hear Dongfang Yu's exclamations and angry roars coming from the black light screen. The black light screen was very mystical. It seemed to be able to devour and block any kind of power.
Dongfang Yu was enveloped by the black light screen that Pan Hong had shot out. He had no strength to fight back at all, and it looked like he would not be able to hold on much longer. The other young experts of the Dongfang family wanted to rescue Dongfang Yu, but those people from the Misty City were glaring at them like tigers watching their prey. Once they made a move, those people would definitely make a move as well.
For a moment, both sides were in a stalemate, and no one dared to act blindly without thinking.
At this moment, a cold snort that made people's hearts tremble rang out from the inn. A terrifying pressure immediately spread out from the inn, so heavy that it made it hard for everyone to breathe.
A black-haired middle-aged man slowly walked out of the inn. This middle-aged man had a ruddy complexion and a head full of jet-black hair that draped neatly behind him. However, his eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of life, which clearly didn't match his age.
"The old one has come out." In the tea shop across the street, Gu Fei secretly sized up this middle-aged man. He inwardly speculated that this was definitely a terrifying expert.
The middle-aged man's entire body emitted an obscure aura. However, this aura made people feel as if it was surging violently. It was as dignified as a mountain, and it was bottomless.
"Enough!" The middle-aged man indifferently said, before casually waving his hand. The layer of black light that enveloped Dongfang Yu immediately shattered with a 'chi' sound. Specks of black light and black threads dissipated in the air.
With his technique broken, Pan Hong's figure swayed and he took a step back. His face was flushed red, as if he was drunk.
"Senior brother!" The Misty City disciples couldn't help but be startled, and they all took a step forward.
The black light screen exploded, revealing Dongfang Yu inside. He was already exhausted on the ground, and the ground around him was completely shattered, with cracks spreading in all directions.
"Greetings, ancestor!" The Dongfang family disciples hurriedly bowed towards the middle-aged man with abnormal respect.
"I didn't think it would be an old monster!" In the tea shop across the street, Gu Fei's heart trembled, and he inwardly rejoiced that he hadn't made a move.
According to his original plan, if the Misty City disciples hadn't clashed with the Dongfang family disciples, he would've done the same thing as Pan Hong and the others. He would've gone up to look for trouble and test the Dongfang family's strength.
The crowd of cultivators watching from afar also began to whisper. What kind of concept was "ancestor"? This middle-aged man was definitely a peerless expert that was rarely seen.
"Greetings, senior!" Pan Hong and the other Misty City disciples also withdrew their arrogant attitudes and solemnly bowed towards the middle-aged man.
In the world of cultivation, all cultivators only valued one thing, and that was strength. The weak would not be valued, and would even be looked down upon. However, the strong would receive everyone's respect.
"Hmph! The people of Misty City finally couldn't bear the loneliness and want to come out into the world? "The middle-aged man coldly said, emitting an invisible pressure that caused people's hearts to palpitate.
Pan Hong's forehead was already covered in a layer of cold sweat. He didn't expect that there would be a peerless expert of the "ancestor" level in the inn.
"Senior must be joking. My Misty City isn't hidden from the world, so why would I want to come out into the world?" Pan Hong said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
A look of admiration flashed through the middle-aged man's eyes as he secretly nodded. This junior didn't seem to be simple. He said, "I can't be bothered with the matters of your Misty City, but if you want to use my Dongfang family to establish your might and think that we are easy to bully, then you are gravely mistaken."
"I will remember senior's teachings. When I return, I will definitely pass on this message to my masters so that they can understand senior's intentions!" Pan Hong said.
"Impudent!"
"How dare you!"
The young experts of the Dongfang family couldn't help but berate Pan Hong's rudeness. Pan Hong's words actually contained a hint of threat, which made the Dongfang family furious.
The middle-aged man smiled and said disapprovingly, "The disciples of Misty City are indeed extraordinary. If the disciples of Misty City were all like you, it wouldn't be impossible for Misty City to become the overlord of the Central Plains!"
The middle-aged man's words carried a deeper meaning.
Pan Hong and the disciples of Misty City couldn't help but change their expressions. They knew that the middle-aged man was clearly praising them, but he was actually saying it for the surrounding cultivators to hear.
Overlord of the Central Plains? Don't even think about it. For thousands of years, who knew how many amazing characters had appeared in the cultivation world, but no one had ever been able to unify the cultivation world.
Wouldn't the middle-aged man's words push Misty City to the top of the storm and become the target of public criticism? Although Misty City was powerful and ambitious, it didn't dare to openly challenge the entire cultivation world.
"Senior, we will take our leave. I hope that we can spar with the experts of the Dongfang family in the future." Pan Hong knew that he wouldn't be able to obtain any benefits today, so he wanted to leave.
A wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. This "ancestor-level" old monster could probably squash them to death with a single finger, and it wouldn't be any more than they were dead.
"Very well, you are welcome to spar, but I hope that something like today won't happen again," the middle-aged man said indifferently. He seemed to have some misgivings and didn't want to make things difficult for the disciples of Misty City.
Pan Hong quickly left with his Junior Brothers. They didn't seem to want to stay in Beiling City any longer, so they headed straight for the city gate. The surrounding cultivators quickly made way for them.
The middle-aged man also turned around and walked into the inn. The commotion disappeared just like that. The surrounding cultivators gradually dispersed.
"I didn't think that such a terrifying expert would come from the Dongfang family. I'm afraid the Northern Lands are about to fall into chaos." An old cultivator in the tea shop sighed.
Gu Fei wasn't the only one in the tea shop opposite the inn. Several cultivators were also chatting in the tea shop, talking about what had just happened in low voices.
"Old Xu, don't say anymore. An expert of that level isn't someone we can talk about. Be careful that the people of the Dongfang family hear us and cause trouble," a middle-aged cultivator opposite the old man whispered.
"Mm! That's true! "The old cultivator called Old Xu nodded and didn't say another word.
Gu Fei realized that the cultivation of these two cultivators wasn't high. They hadn't even broken through the Awakening Self Stage. The path of cultivation was like ten thousand people crossing a single-log bridge. Those who could achieve anything were few and far between, especially those who were rogue cultivators.
This was especially true for some rogue cultivators. They didn't have a good way to cultivate, nor did they have a source of cultivation that they could use. Those who could become successful were few and far between.
Judging from the clothes of these two cultivators, they should be rogue cultivators.
Gu Fei paid for the tea and walked out of the tea shop. He had changed his appearance and wasn't afraid that Dongfang Chen would recognize him. At this time, Dongfang Chen's figure had already disappeared from the inn.
Today, Gu Fei had gained a lot. He knew that an old monster of the "Ancestor" level had come to the Dongfang family. This kind of peerless expert was very terrifying.
Things seemed to have to be replanned. After all, there was an old monster in the inn. He was afraid that the moment he entered the inn, he would be discovered by this peerless expert.
In front of this kind of peerless expert, he only had one choice, and that was … to escape. If he couldn't escape, there was only one outcome, and that was … death!
