The death of a mere Yao King was nothing to him. He, Ji Dehai, was here as a representative of the Realm of Ten Thousand Demons. Today, Feng Beichen had brought out the Exquisite Pagoda. Ji Dehai wanted to see just how powerful it was for Feng Beichen to personally make an appearance. Feng Beichen's intentions were clear. He clearly wanted to use this artifact to intimidate the entire cultivation realm, and not just target a mere Lie Huan. Ji Dehai was concerned about whether this artifact could truly help Feng Beichen break the balance of power between the six forces. He didn't want to see a bunch of Yao Kings interrupting this.
However, Ji Dehai's shout caused the Yao Kings to glare at each other angrily.
Feng Beichen didn't want to get into a fight with these Yao Kings either. Otherwise, how could he allow a few mere Yao Kings to shout at him in front of everyone? If he wanted to get rid of these noisy fellows, there was no one here who could stop him.
The Jade Sea Yao King was right. He was indeed defeated by the Sea of Constellations all those years ago. The four Soul Masters had worked together to defeat him and Ghost Sage Situ Xiao. However, that was many years ago. Now, his and Situ Xiao's cultivation were on a completely different level. Even if the four Soul Masters worked together now, they might not be a match for any one of the Six Sages. The Six Sages had reaped the greatest benefits in the world, and the cultivation resources they had were not something the four Soul Masters could compare to. The longer this dragged on, the greater the gap between the two sides.
For some reason, the Exquisite Refinement Sect's Sect Master naturally understood Feng Beichen's intentions. This was all part of the plan, so he hurriedly stepped in to mediate the situation, saying, "Fellow Supreme Yao Kings, please don't be anxious. Lie Huan is still alive and well. He's currently battling it out with the pagoda inside the Exquisite Refinement Sect."
Hearing this, the Yao Kings were no longer in the mood to get angry. They were more concerned about Lie Huan's survival, and quickly turned their attention to the sky.
Miao Yijun expressionlessly waved her sleeves and invoked her arts. The Exquisite Pagoda that had flown far away flew back and returned to the sky above the basin, glowing with a purple light.
Meanwhile, Lie Huan didn't feel any discomfort after being sucked into the Exquisite Pagoda. He only felt his vision darken for a moment before it brightened up again. The Treasure Inspection Conference before his eyes suddenly changed, becoming unfamiliar.
Enveloped in a ball of flames, Lie Huan hovered in the sky, looking around with a look of astonishment on his face. In the air, he actually saw a lake that stretched as far as the eye could see. The mountains were undulating, the trees were lush, the wildflowers and weeds were dense, and the air was fresh. The sky was bright, but no one knew where the light came from. There was no sun in the sky, no wind blew, and no animals could be seen. It was as if he had arrived in another world.
He clearly remembered that he was sucked into the Linglong Treasure Pagoda, but everything was fine in front of him, and he did not see any threat. This made him even more vigilant.
Illusion! This thought immediately appeared in his mind.
"What kind of skill is this?!" Lie Huan bellowed, "Come on! Let this king witness how powerful this Linglong Treasure Pagoda is! "
However, the surroundings were deathly silent, and only his voice could be heard. No one answered him, causing him to quickly feel endless loneliness and strangeness.
Whoosh! He quickly dashed towards the lake, retracted the flames on his body, and landed on the shore of the lake. He seemed to have let down his guard and was waiting for someone to attack. But there was no movement, no sign of danger at all. On the other hand, the feeling of solidity under his feet made him lift his foot and step on it repeatedly. He then squatted down and touched it, grabbing a handful of sand and squeezing it in his hand.
The corner of Lie Huan's mouth twitched. It wasn't an illusion; it was real sand. He quickly took another step forward, stepped into the rippling water, and touched the water with his hand. He even scooped up a handful and tasted it. It wasn't an illusion either. It was salty!
It was the ocean! This boundless body of water was not a lake, but an ocean! Lie Huan was utterly shocked. How could there be an ocean inside the Linglong Treasure Pagoda? How could it possibly contain an ocean?
No! This must be an illusion! It was a very high-level illusion!
Lie Huan raised his head to look at the sky. No matter how powerful an illusion was, there would always be an end to it. Suddenly, he soared into the sky and shot straight into the heavens...
He flew for a very long time. Lie Huan's expression was one of shock!
He had broken free from the restraints of the small world more than once. He had floated in the heavens, gazing at the vast and mysterious universe. He had even traveled among the stars, hoping to find the legendary greater world that he had yearned for. He had once stood on the barren and desolate moon, gazing at the small world he lived in.
After flying for so long, given his flying speed, he should have long since broken free from the restraints of the small world. However, he couldn't even feel the slightest change in the air pressure. The heavens above him seemed endless, and he would never be able to break free.
Looking down at his feet, he could clearly see the ground beneath him. It seemed that no matter how he flew, he would always maintain a certain distance from the ground beneath him. It was as if his flying speed was a joke in this world.
He quickly turned around and flew to the skies above the vast ocean. Then, he dove head-first into the blue ocean and quickly dived towards the seabed. There were no living creatures to be seen under the sea. It was as if the bottom was bottomless. He dove down at high speed for at least several dozen li, but he still couldn't see the bottom of the sea.
It was as if he was flying. After diving so deep, he couldn't feel the slightest change in pressure that a deep dive should have.
"Bang!" He charged out from the surface of the sea and soared into the sky again. He was still unwilling to give up! This was because he had already confirmed that he was inside the Linglong Treasure Pagoda and not in another world. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so strange. He believed that since he was inside the space of the pagoda, there must be a limit to this space and an end. The Linglong Treasure Pagoda couldn't possibly contain an entire world. As long as he could find the main body of the pagoda, he would have a way to break free.
Lie Huan once again flew horizontally across this world. He kept flying, and flying.
He didn't know that as he flew at high speed, the spectators outside could see the Linglong Treasure Pagoda spinning rapidly. If he stopped, the Linglong Treasure Pagoda would slow down as well. If he continued flying, the Linglong Treasure Pagoda would start spinning again.
Moreover, the way it was spinning was very strange. Each level of the pagoda had seven sections. The base and top of the pagoda were basically unmoving, and would only spin occasionally. Only the five sections in the middle were spinning the most frequently, and they weren't spinning in the same direction. Some were spinning to the left, some were spinning to the right, and some were spinning the other way around. The bells on the pagoda were tinkling incessantly.
Lie Huan didn't know what was happening outside, and the spectators outside didn't know what was happening inside the Linglong Treasure Pagoda either. When they saw that Miao Junyi was still using her arts to control the pagoda, and that the pagoda was still reacting, everyone knew that Lie Huan was still alive, and that he was still fighting against the pagoda inside the pagoda.
Meanwhile, in the 'other world', Lie Huan grew more and more shocked as he flew. He was screaming inside, 'How is this possible? How is this possible? How can the space inside the Linglong Treasure Pagoda be so vast and boundless!?'
Compared to when he was flying in the sky and in the sea, he couldn't feel any changes. However, the changes before his eyes were all too obvious. The mountains and rivers below him quickly moved behind him, and the constantly changing landscape proved just how vast this world was.
Deserts, grasslands, snowy mountains, and forests continuously appeared beneath him. Lie Huan's shock was indescribable. How could this Exquisite Refinement Sect refine a transcendent artifact? It was practically a world of its own!
In the end, he gave up on flying and landed on a desolate plain. He stared at the ground beneath his feet. He still firmly believed that there must be an end, and that the transcendent artifact itself was at the end of this world. Even if the Exquisite Refinement Sect could refine a world of their own, they couldn't possibly refine a world that was endless.
"Boom!" Lie Huan suddenly struck the ground with his fist. In an instant, the ground cracked, and large chunks of earth were sent flying.
He threw punch after punch, as though he wanted to punch a hole through this world. Well, it wasn't as though he wanted to. Rather, he really wanted to do it. Since he couldn't fly up into the sky, dive into the sea, or fly horizontally or vertically, he would dig a hole through the ground. He refused to believe that he couldn't dig to the bottom.
However, as Lie Huan resorted to violent methods and threw punches after punches, trouble came knocking. The ground around him trembled, and a three-meter-tall earthman rose from the ground. With a loud rumble, it charged towards Lie Huan, its entire body covered in dust.
"Finally, there's a reaction!" Lie Huan laughed coldly. Wielding a pair of large sabers in his hands, he dashed forward and swung his sabers in a frenzy.
The earthling was split in half by his saber strike. However, the power behind the punch before it was split in half was not to be underestimated either. Lie Huan blocked it with his saber, but was actually forced to take a few steps back.
Lie Huan was astonished once more. This attack clearly had the strength of a Golden Lotus cultivator. How could an earthling that could be split in half with a single strike have such a powerful attack? This was a Fourth Grade Transcendent Artifact, not a Fifth Grade Transcendent Artifact!
As the earthling collapsed to the ground, another earthling quickly emerged from behind Lie Huan to attack him. Lie Huan quickly turned around and counterattacked.
He quickly killed another earthling. However, this earthling with the strength of a Golden Lotus cultivator seemed to have no end to him. After killing one, another would appear. As Lie Huan's attacks grew stronger, the earthling's attacks seemed to grow more and more ferocious as well.
Even though the earthling couldn't defeat Lie Huan, it had an advantage in that it wasn't afraid of death. Even if it died, it could be reborn. On top of that, their attacks were evenly matched. Lie Huan didn't dare to underestimate the earthling, and had no choice but to deal with it with all his might...
Outside, a handmaiden walked out from behind Feng Beichen's veil. In her hands was a tray covered with a layer of red cloth. She brought it over to the Exquisite Refinement Sect Master and whispered something to him.
Bewildered, the handmaiden nodded. She placed the tray on a long table, then turned around and returned to the veil.
Miao Yi, who was holding a cup of wine in his hand and exchanging flirtatious glances with the Lady Boss, noticed this. He walked over to the long table, then cupped his fists towards the crowd and said, "Everyone! I'm afraid Supreme Yao Lord Lie Huan won't be coming out anytime soon. In order to prevent everyone from getting bored waiting, the Holy Lord is gracious enough to bestow fifty Basic Immortal Pills as a prize for everyone's entertainment! "
As he finished speaking, he lifted the red cloth covering the tray. A faint, ethereal purple glow immediately appeared on the tray.
The Basic Immortal Pills were placed on higher ground, so everyone couldn't see the true appearance of the pills. All they could see was a faint glow. Even so, it caused a commotion among the crowd. Even Miao Yi's eyes lit up. He exchanged glances with Zhuang Youwen, whose eyes were similarly shining.
