Inside the Yu Clan's treasury, the elder in grey puked out blood. He wanted to attack, but he had no strength to stand up.
He stared deadly at Ling Xian. Other than killer's intent, there was also some bitterness.
He was two levels higher than Ling Xian, yet he couldn't do anything to Ling Xian. In fact, he was slightly weaker than Ling Xian. Who wouldn't feel defeated?
"You are the monster who killed Jue Chen after all."
The elder smiled bitterly and his expression turned cold, "But, no matter how powerful you are, you will die for provoking the Yu Clan!"
"Even at your prime, you don't have the right to threaten me."
"Don't you feel like you are seeking death by threatening me now?"
Ling Xian glared at the elder. The Cauldron of Mountain and River appeared and pressed down.
Retch!
After puking out a mouthful of fresh blood, the elder's face turned white. He no longer had the strength to fight.
His body shook uncontrollably. Half of it was anger, the other half was fear.
Ling Xian was right. If he continued to shout, he would be seeking death.
"Shut your eyes. Don't force me to kill you."
Ling Xian spoke softly. As he spoke, Yao Fan's silhouette disappeared and could no longer be used.
This made him feel a little regretful, but there was nothing he could do.
"I will have to rely on myself from now on."
Ling Xian softly sighed and looked at the elder, "Where is the Cracked Sky Light?"
"So you are here for the Cracked Sky Light …"
The elder stared at Ling Xian, "Are you from the Peace Faction or the 10 forbidden lands?"
"You don't need to know."
Ling Xian glared at the elder. He had already used his Qi to investigate and found out that there were many traps here. If he searched them one by one, it would be a waste of time and he would be in danger.
"I won't tell you. Even if you kill me, you will not find out the exact location of the Cracked Sky Light."
The elder coldly snickered, "Don't blame me for not warning you. There are countless traps here. If you aren't careful, you will die!"
"I don't need you to remind me."
Ling Xian's expression turned cold, "I have 100 ways to torture you. Do you want to try?"
"I'm not that easily intimidated."
The elder stared deadly at Ling Xian, "I have sent a message to my clan. Young man, wait for your death."
"I am sorry. Before I entered, I sealed this place with arrays. Your message cannot be sent out." Ling Xian said softly.
"You!"
The old man was shocked and angry at the same time. Even though he didn't want to believe it, the fact that no one came was the best proof.
"If you don't want to suffer a fate worse than death, then tell me where the Sky-Rending Light is."
Ling Xian's smile disappeared. There were countless treasures here. Based on their placement, they could be divided into two categories.
One of them was piled up in the hall. Relatively speaking, it wasn't considered precious. The other was placed in the hidden compartments on both sides of the wall. It was obvious that it was valuable.
This hidden compartment was made of special materials and was divided into two sides on the left. Each side was further divided into three rows. Not only could it block eye techniques, but it could also isolate divine souls.
Therefore, Ling Xian could not sense where the Sky Cracking Light was.
"I won't tell you. Kill me if you have the guts." The old man sneered.
"Have a taste of the flames tempering your body."
Ling Xian's smile turned cold. With a flick of his finger, the Godly Fire engulfed the elder.
In the next instant, a blood-curdling scream rang out, and the air was filled with a burning smell.
"Dammit, my Yu Clan won't let you off!"
The old man let out a heart-wrenching scream. He wanted to use his spiritual energy to block, but the Cauldron of Mountain and River restrained him. He could only resist the True Fire of Burning Evil.
Therefore, he was in so much pain that he wished he was dead.
"I have many ways to torture people. You don't want to try them all, do you?"
Ling Xian was cold and emotionless without a trace of pity.
If this was any other time, he wouldn't act this way. But this was a special time. For the sake of the universe, he had to use some methods.
"I will speak, I will speak …"
The old man couldn't hold on any longer. His entire body was charred and he was barely breathing.
"Speak."
Ling Xian glared at the old man, "You better not lie to me. Or else I won't give you a second chance."
"It's the last hidden compartment on the left," the old man said weakly.
"You better not lie to me. Or else you will be the one to die."
Ling Xian stared at the old man and marched forward in giant steps. He arrived at the last hidden compartment on the left.
However, just as he was about to pull it open, he hesitated.
For one, there was a hidden mechanism. For two, the old man didn't want him to get his hands on the Sky Cracking Light.
Combining these two points, one could conclude that the old man most likely wanted to use a hidden mechanism to get rid of him.
"It's that hidden compartment. Pull it open and you will see the Sky Cracking Light."
The old man's weak voice arose. It sounded like he was confirming, but no matter how you listened to it, it sounded like he was trying to trick Ling Xian.
"I suddenly changed my mind."
Ling Xian smiled, "You open it."
Hearing this, the old man's heart dropped. However, his expression didn't change, "I am already heavily injured. How can I open it?"
"No matter how heavily injured you are, you won't be unable to open a box."
"Come, don't be so polite."
Ling Xian flapped around his sleeve and sucked the old man into the last hidden compartment.
The old man's expression changed. He could no longer pretend and gritted his teeth, "Young man, count yourself lucky."
"I told you, you better not lie to me. Or else I won't give you a second chance."
Ling Xian's expression turned cold. He felt lucky that he was cautious. Or else he would've been killed by the last hidden compartment.
"Kill me. Even if I die, I will not betray the Yu Clan."
The old man laughed crazily, "Search them one by one. Have a good taste of the traps!"
"I don't need to search them one by one. I already know where the Sky Cracking Light is." Ling Xian grinned.
"Impossible!"
The old man was startled. He subconsciously glanced at the last hidden compartment on the right. Though it was fleeting, Ling Xian still caught it.
"I really didn't know before. But now, your eyes have told me."
Ling Xian smiled and pointed at the last hidden compartment on the right, "It's this one, right?"
"Dammit!"
The old man was furious and shocked. He wanted to gouge out his own eyes.
"You deserve to die."
"After all, you were the one who told me where the Sky Cracking Light is."
Ling Xian softly grinned. The old man's lungs were about to explode and his intestines were turning green from regret.
"Thank you."
Chuckling, Ling Xian walked to the last hidden compartment on the right and pulled it open without hesitation.
Instantly, sword rays fell like rain and killer's intent shot through the cloud.
The sharpness of the sword shocked even Ling Xian.
The old man laughed out loud and didn't even try to hide his excitement, "So what you found the Sky Cracking Light? The sword energy left behind by my kind is enough to take your life! "
"If this person's real body came, I would turn around and leave. But mere sword energy cannot stop me!"
Ling Xian's eyes shot out electricity. He raised his hand and his fists landed.
His movements were bold and aggressive. Like a ferocious beast, he had the energy to swallow the entire universe.
HOMM, HOMM, HOMM!
The sword energy dissipated and the killer's intent decreased. After some time, the sword rays completely disappeared. All that was left was the Sky Cracking Light that lit up the entire treasury.
The light was blinding. To Ling Xian, this was the light of hope.
If he can get his hands on it, he can stop the foreign army and buy the universe some precious time to breathe!
"It's useless even if you break the trap. You cannot break the inhibition of the Sky Cracking Light!"
The old man stared at Ling Xian with hatred and his teeth were about to break.
