The occurrence of such a situation was also within Pei Feng's expectations.
Firstly, Ma Yunbiao was old, and his potential was far from the young Chang Xiaoe's. Secondly, in terms of talent, he was clearly inferior to Chang Xiaoe.
"Pei … Mr. Pei! What … what happened to me?! "
Ignoring the dirt all over his body and messy hair, Ma Yunbiao stared at Pei Feng in disbelief, his body trembling uncontrollably.
Pei Feng looked up at him and smiled, "How does it feel to regain what you lost? Isn't it a great blessing in life?"
Ma Yunbiao could no longer hold back his excitement as he felt the surging arcane energy in his body, which was even stronger than before his cultivation was crippled. Tears of joy rolled down his cheeks.
He knelt on the ground with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly without saying a word. "Thank you! Thank you so much, Mr. Pei! The grace of rebirth, the grace of rebirth, this old man will never forget it! "
"No need to thank me, this is what you deserve."
Pei Feng said calmly, "That day at Gu Huai Temple, I didn't cripple your cultivation. I only sealed your dantian's Qi Sea. After drinking this bowl of spirit tea today and borrowing the effects of the Meridian Cleansing and Marrow Cleansing to break through the shackles, your cultivation will naturally recover. Moreover … it should have gone up a level, right? "
"Yes, yes, my cultivation has improved!"
Tears streamed down Ma Yunbiao's cheeks, "I will never forget Mr. Pei's kindness!"
Pei Feng stared at him with a faint smile, "Great Master Ma, remember, since I can return it to you, I can also take it away, including your life."
Ma Yunbiao suddenly shivered, and his expression turned solemn as he said respectfully, "I understand, Mr. Pei, I understand."
"Alright, get up, I'm going back to my room to cultivate."
Pei Feng did not say anything else. He stood up and walked toward the stairs, "The two of you should rest early today. Tomorrow morning, follow me to Mount Tianwu."
…
The next morning, the four of them drove to Mount Tianwu, located in the northern suburbs of Ancient Rock City.
Mount Tianwu was a huge mountain, 1,500 meters tall, stretching for dozens of miles.
From afar, the mountain peak was shrouded in mist, making it look like a fairyland, beautiful and spectacular.
Mount Tianwu was huge, and it would take almost a day to travel from the foot of the mountain to the Ghost Cave at the northern suburbs of Ancient Rock City.
If Pei Feng was alone, he could reach there in two to four hours at most, but he brought three people with him.
It was not a problem for Ling Sha to keep up with him. After all, she had reached the advanced level of inner strength. However, Ma Yunbiao and Chang Xiaoe could not keep up with him — long-distance running was not the strong point of cultivators of spells. Chang Xiaoe had just undergone meridian and marrow cleansing. Although her physique had been improved, she did not even know the most basic breathing method, so she could not keep up.
Fortunately, Pei Feng was not in a hurry. Mount Tianwu had a good view, and it was not a bad idea to walk slowly while enjoying the scenery.
They were all people with cultivation levels. Although the mountain path was winding, they did not feel tired at all, especially with Chang Xiaoe, the little joker. The four of them walked briskly, looking at the flowers on horseback, laughing and chatting. It was quite fun along the way.
Before they knew it, it was already dusk, and they were getting closer and closer to the legendary Ghost Cave.
"Mr. Pei, we'll be there in about two miles. The temperature in the mountains is quite cold today, and the two fellows in the Ghost Cave will probably come out, especially late at night … I'll take you to explore the terrain before it gets dark, and then we'll find a place to set up camp."
Pei Feng nodded.
"There's a high slope 300 meters away from the Ghost Cave. We can set up our tents there, and it faces the entrance of the Ghost Cave, making it easier to monitor the situation. By the way, Mr. Pei, even though it's a high slope, it's not safe. We still need someone to stand guard at all times at night. "
Pei Feng smiled. "Okay, let's take a look at the Ghost Cave first."
"Okay."
As they spoke, they turned a corner on the mountain path. Suddenly, there was a faint noise coming from ahead. It seemed to be the voices of people, and more than one!
"Someone's there?"
Pei Feng frowned and turned to look at Ma Yunbiao beside him. "Didn't you say that Mount Tianwu is a barren mountain with few people?"
Ma Yunbiao's expression also changed. He pricked up his ears and listened for a moment before saying in a low voice, "I think I know who it is, Mr. Pei … Ordinary people don't dare to come to this Ghost Mountain, but ever since our Dark Sunflower Gate was completely disbanded six years ago, there have been some people who have set their eyes on this Ghost Cave. It's just that no one has been able to deal with it."
"Oh? Who is it? "
Ma Yunbiao thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "It could be someone from the Hall of Spring and Autumn, or it could be one of my fellow disciples."
"The Hall of Spring and Autumn again?" Pei Feng smiled. "Interesting … If it's really one of them, then we're really fated. Let's go and take a look. "
…
After a while, they passed through a pine forest overgrown with weeds, and suddenly, the front suddenly opened up.
This was a grassy slope with a circumference of a thousand feet. It was like a basin lying across the mountainside.
On the northernmost side of the grassy slope was a dark cave. The entrance of the cave was almost three meters high. On the south side of the grassy slope about a hundred meters away, there were two groups of people confronting each other. The atmosphere was a little tense.
There were eight people in one group. The leader was a beautiful woman in a black outfit with two ponytails. She was full of heroic spirit. Behind her was a stooped old man with oily green eyes. There were also six strong men. One of them was holding a large net, one was holding a spear, one was carrying a bow and arrow, and one was actually holding a double-barreled shotgun.
The other group only had two people. One was a skinny old man with a goatee, and the other was a fat old man with a mustache. Both of their eyes were very sinister. They stared at the ponytailed woman and the stooped old man without blinking.
"There are actually two groups of people?" Ma Yunbiao moved closer to Pei Feng and said in a low voice, "Mr Pei, that old man with a goatee is my eldest senior brother, and the old man with a mustache is my second senior brother. This side … yes, I remember! This woman is from Jiangnan's Li family. I've seen her come here once before! I don't know the others. "
Pei Feng nodded and walked straight toward the Baleful Yin Ghost Cave.
"You guys go to the south and find an empty space to wait for me. I'll go take a look at the Baleful Yin Ghost Cave."
Ma Yunbiao was startled. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to remind Pei Feng of something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. There was no need to remind Pei Feng to be careful. He was a Grandmaster, and he had his own speculations.
The sudden appearance of Pei Feng and the other three broke the deadlock between the two groups of people. Other than the skinny old man with a goatee and the fat old man with a mustache, the ponytailed woman's group all focused on Pei Feng, who had his hands in his pockets and was leisurely walking toward the Baleful Yin Ghost Cave.
