In the face of this fist strike, even a fifth stage Imperial Wind Realm cultivator would be killed beyond the shadow of a doubt.
After all, Chu Ning wasn't the only one attacking. Cheng Tiankong was helping him.
With the Heaven-Sealing God Chart weighing down on him, even a fifth stage Imperial Wind Realm cultivator wouldn't be able to stand up to it.
Furthermore, Chu Fengmian was far from being in the fifth stage of the Imperial Wind Realm.
Given the circumstances, Chu Fengmian would be dead beyond the shadow of a doubt.
"He's gone."
By the time the fist-wind dissipated, Chu Fengmian was nowhere to be seen.
Only a few bloodstains could be seen on the ground.
"You must have killed him with a single punch, right?"
Cheng Tiankong scanned the area with his divine sense, and confirmed that there was no trace of Chu Fengmian's aura.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Chu Fengmian to escape. There was only one possibility, and that was that Chu Fengmian had been completely annihilated.
There wasn't even a scrap of him left behind.
"It's too bad we didn't get the Rich-Lush Stele."
Chu Ning said, sounding a bit frustrated.
"The kid is dead, so the Rich-Lush Stele must have disappeared along with him."
"Grand Emperor Rich-Lush personally created that spirit treasure."
"Don't worry about it. Compared to the Rich-Lush Stele, the legacy of Grand Emperor Rich-Lush is far more important."
Cheng Tiankong waved his hand dismissively.
"Now that the Rich-Lush Stele is gone, all we have to do is break the warding spells in the mausoleum and get the legacy."
"Who in this holy land could possibly be a match for us? The legacy of Grand Emperor Rich-Lush is definitely ours."
"Let's go. Young Sir Flame South and the others are all eyeing the legacy of Grand Emperor Rich-Lush covetously. We have to get in before them."
Cheng Tiankong said. Then, his figure flashed and left.
Now that the Rich-Lush Stele was gone, there was no reason for him to stay.
With that, Chu Ning looked over at Grand Emperor Rich-Lush's mausoleum, then turned and left.
After the two of them left, everything was quiet again. However, the bloodstains on the ground made it clear that a great battle had taken place.
"Where am I?"
Chu Fengmian opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings.
In this strange space, Chu Fengmian didn't know how long he had been sleeping. Perhaps a week, perhaps a month.
It was only when Chu Fengmian woke up that he noticed that everything around him was so unfamiliar.
Hanyue Li's body was also lying beside Chu Fengmian. Her body was now incomparably cold. Chu Fengmian could feel the bone-piercing cold just by lying beside her.
"Have you escaped?"
Chu Fengmian looked at the quiet surroundings and whispered to himself.
"Hmph. If you hadn't been lucky enough to awaken at the same time as the Richly Lush Monument, do you really think you would have survived?"
Xing Xuan said unhappily in Chu Fengmian's mind.
"For a woman, you almost lost your life. How did I end up with a master like you?"
"The Rich-Lush Monument?"
Chu Fengmian naturally ignored Xing Xuan's complaints. It was only now that he noticed a stone tablet the size of a person beside him.
It was none other than the Rich-Lush Monument he had acquired from the ancient dragon-turtle. Now, it was fully awake.
After Chu Fengmian had entered the Holy Land, the Rich-Lush Monument had gradually awakened due to the presence of Grand Emperor Rich-Lush's mausoleum. As soon as it realized that Chu Fengmian was in danger, it woke up.
Chu Fengmian and Hanyue Li were sucked into the Rich-Lush Monument, allowing them to avoid Chu Ning's final fist strike.
"Are we in Grand Emperor Rich-Lush's mausoleum?"
Chu Fengmian said, looking around and sensing the spiritual power in the area.
Unexpectedly, the Rich-Lush Monument had taken Chu Fengmian and Hanyue Li into the mausoleum.
"My power?"
Chu Fengmian said, rising to his feet. It was almost as if he were filled with boundless power.
Suddenly, his mind trembled as he looked at the illusory image of the ancient war-dragon.
Shockingly, there were ten drops of quintessence-blood within that illusory image.
It seemed that Chu Fengmian hadn't died. Instead, he had absorbed all of the spiritual power within the dragon core.
As a result, he now had five drops of quintessence-blood. It was a blessing in disguise.
Thanks to the ten drops of quintessence-blood, Chu Fengmian's cultivation level had reached the first level of the Divine Sea Realm. Although he had only just reached the Divine Sea Realm, Chu Fengmian could sense that his strength had undergone a heaven-shaking, earth-toppling transformation.
Chu Fengmian's current strength was probably more than ten times stronger than before.
If he were to run into Chu Ning or Cheng Tiankong again, even if he couldn't defeat them, he would at least be able to fight them and escape unscathed.
"Now that I'm in the Divine Sea Realm, I should be able to use the Rich-Lush Monument."
Chu Fengmian's mind trembled. Now that the Rich-Lush Monument had awakened, as long as he had enough power, he should be able to use it.
"Move!"
Chu Fengmian looked at the Rich-Lush Monument. With a thought, he injected a surge of spiritual power into the monument, intending to activate it.
However, the Rich-Lush Monument remained motionless in its original position. Chu Fengmian's spiritual power was like a stone sinking into the ocean.
"What's going on?"
"Hmph, this Rich-Lush Monument isn't some trash spiritual artifact. It's a low-grade heaven-grade spiritual artifact. How could you possibly activate it with your current strength?"
Xing Xuan mocked in Chu Fengmian's mind.
"Only if you're in the Wind-controlling Realm, and your strength is close to that of a Saint, would you be able to activate it."
"Take a look at your storage pouch."
"Storage pouch?"
Chu Fengmian frowned. He opened his storage pouch and looked inside. Inside the pouch, which was originally filled with quintessence-gathering pills, there was an obvious gap.
About a tenth of it was missing.
This storage pouch contained a million quintessence-gathering pills that Chu Fengmian had obtained from the Northwest Barren Lands. A tenth of it was equivalent to a hundred thousand quintessence-gathering pills missing.
"This is the amount of spiritual power you need to activate the Rich-Lush Monument once."
Xing Xuan's voice rang out again.
"Although you're the master of the Rich-Lush Monument now, you can't activate it with your current strength."
"Every time you activate the Rich-Lush Monument, you'll need a hundred thousand quintessence-gathering pills to replenish it. So, if you want to use the Rich-Lush Monument's power, you'd better think carefully."
A hundred thousand quintessence-gathering pills would be consumed every time it was activated.
