As the second prince of the Great Qin Empire, Qin Shizi was a key candidate to be groomed. His abilities were not inferior to any of the prodigies in the Transcendent World.
He had always been humble because Yang Wu was much stronger than him and had even saved his life. He wanted to be courteous and try to pull Yang Wu into his camp.
Now, for the woman he fancied, how could he keep a low profile?
He was in the Level 7 Starline Realm, but he could unleash the power of a Level 10 Starline Realm cultivator.
This was his innate ability.
After Qin Shizi landed on the ground, he looked in the direction of Cao Jifei.
Unfortunately, Cao Jifei was already following Yang Wu and did not even look at him. This made him furious. He swore, "I will have you."
After seeing Qin Shizi rush over, others followed suit.
Those who entered the Bamboo Forest would reap great rewards. Those who failed would be eliminated. Those who were lucky could even escape unscathed.
As more and more people were eliminated, a few managed to pass.
For example, Zhang Xiaoru and Gong Zhe both succeeded.
Zhang Xiaoru was Xiang Dingtian's first disciple. Xiang Dingtian was known to be unparalleled in pill cultivation. How could his first disciple be weak?
Gong Zhe seemed to be brave, but his strength was not ordinary. It was reasonable that he could pass.
There were also a few who passed.
These people were all prodigies of the Martial Way. Some of them even had the qualifications to become Martial Sages.
Listening Bamboo Forest, this was a dense bamboo forest.
Looking around, they didn't find anything special. When they walked in, they also didn't find anything unusual. There was no inheritance or comprehension of the power that they were looking forward to.
They could not help but wonder if they had been cheated.
Cao Jifei asked Yang Wu, "Did you discover anything?"
Yang Wu shook his head and said, "I haven't found anything for the time being, but I think this place is really extraordinary."
He wanted to open his Soul Eye to take a look, but hesitated and did not do so.
Let's take a look first.
The others did not crowd together. Instead, they split up to search for their own opportunities.
The Bamboo Forest was huge. In a few turns, it was easy to fall into it and not find anyone else.
For example, the First Rift Peak, who had just entered, was nowhere to be found.
Furthermore, he could no longer sense his aura. It was as if he had disappeared into thin air.
Lord Qin didn't want to see Cao Jifei and Yang Wu together, so he chose a direction and left.
He wanted to find his own opportunity.
Yang Wu, on the other hand, had been holding Cao Jifei's hand ever since they entered the bamboo forest, and had never separated from her.
His main purpose was to protect her in case there was any danger. His reaction was faster and he didn't have any dirty thoughts.
Cao Jifei did not feel uncomfortable at all. She felt very sweet and happy. She wanted to continue like this.
As they walked, they got separated from the others.
They also began to discover some extraordinary aspects of this bamboo forest. There were several thousand year old bamboos that exuded the fragrance of bamboo. This was definitely sacred bamboo. If taken, it could be used to make flutes, flutes, and other musical instruments. It would definitely be a top-notch material.
In addition, there were sparkling and translucent dewdrops on the bamboo leaves. These dewdrops were suffused with a rich vitality. It was as if a single drop could revive a person.
Cao Jifei was pleasantly surprised. "Thousand Year Bamboo Dew."
The Thousand Year Bamboo Dew was a type of sacred dew. It had a very powerful healing effect, comparable to the Spring of Life.
It could be applied externally or taken internally. It was rare.
This dew was formed by the condensation of the essence of heaven and earth and the liquid excreted by the Thousand Year Bamboo.
"It is indeed the Thousand Year Bamboo Dew." Yang Wu nodded.
There was quite a lot of Thousand Year Bamboo Dew here. Every single bamboo had several drops. It would be a great harvest to collect them all.
Especially in this dangerous space, a single drop of Thousand Year Bamboo Dew could save a life.
Cao Jifei took out a jade bottle and carefully collected the Bamboo Dew. She looked at Yang Wu and said, "You should collect them too."
"You can collect them." Yang Wu replied. He continued to look at the bamboo around him and opened his soul eye.
The soul eye could see through all nothingness, and could discover any strange place.
Sure enough, after he opened his soul eye, he immediately discovered something.
There was an invisible force twining around the bamboo forest. This invisible force didn't have any lethality, but it contained the meaning of martial arts. He instantly whispered, "Is this a divine palace?"
Cao Jifei was somewhat puzzled. She asked, "What divine palace?"
Yang Wu replied, "A divine palace born from the Nine Suns Boundary."
Cao Jifei's expression changed. "Then isn't this place very dangerous?"
Yang Wu shook his head and said, "There is no danger in this place. The divine chains of this divine palace are not a killing force, but a life force divine chain."
The power of each divine chain represented the martial path that the warrior cultivated.
This place gave birth to bamboo and Thousand Year Bamboo Dew, which meant that this divine palace contained the martial intent of life.
Thinking of this, Yang Wu became excited.
His Dao of Life and Death had not been able to take a step forward. It was entirely because his comprehension of the Dao of Life was limited. If he could complete the Dao of Life in this place, then his Dao of Life and Death would be able to rise to another level.
"Then did you find the inheritance of this place?" Cao Jifei asked again.
Yang Wu's third eye was too monstrous. He must have seen something that she couldn't.
Yang Wu smiled and said, "I can look for it."
He pulled Cao Jifei and continued to go deeper.
The center of the divine palace was the place of inheritance.
The so-called inheritance was actually the mystery of the divine chains. If one could obtain the approval of the divine chains, then they could obtain the inheritance.
Perhaps the greatest inheritance here was the Dao of Life.
Yang Wu continued to go deeper with Cao Jifei. When he was about to reach the center, he suddenly saw a young man sitting cross-legged in a corner with a saber between his knees. If Yang Wu hadn't opened his soul eye, then he really wouldn't have discovered his existence.
This young man had actually become one with the heavens and earth.
Yang Wu deliberately slowed down his pace and took Cao Jifei around, avoiding as much as possible and not disturbing the young man's enlightenment.
However, Cao Jifei didn't notice. She asked Yang Wu, "What's wrong?"
Yang Wu said with a sound transmission, "Someone is comprehending the Dao. Don't talk."
Unfortunately, his reminder was too late.
Cao Jifei's voice had already interrupted the young man's enlightenment.
The young man opened his eyes and two blade-like beams of power shot in the direction of Yang Wu and Cao Jifei. A formless killing intent instantly spread out.
Yang Wu hurriedly said, "We're just passing by. We didn't mean to disturb you. Sorry."
The young man didn't speak. A formless saber Qi swept up and slashed toward Yang Wu and Cao Jifei.
Cao Jifei only just noticed the person in front of them. She frowned and said, "It's Xie Zhen. He's actually here."
Xie Zhen of the Temple of Immortality, ranked second on the predicted Martial Sage List.
Yang Wu stood in front of Cao Jifei. He reached out his hand and grabbed the formless saber Qi, instantly crushing it.
Yang Wu felt that the power of the saber Qi was quite extraordinary. It was even stronger than that of many peak Sages.
This was only a trace of the opponent's power. It could be seen how powerful he was.
"Take my saber. If you don't die, I'll let you go." Xie Zhen was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. He raised his hand and slashed toward Yang Wu and Cao Jifei.
He used his hand as a saber.
A solid saber light slashed toward Yang Wu.
This saber light seemed to have attracted the power of the surroundings. At first, it wasn't very strong. However, the closer it got to Yang Wu, the more majestic and powerful the saber light became. By the time it was in front of Yang Wu, the power of the saber light was more than ten times stronger than when it had just been released.
The Longevity Saber.
This was Xie Zhen's best move. This saber strike only contained 20% or 20% of his power.
Yang Wu felt that this saber strike was full of martial arts intent. Its lethality wasn't something that an ordinary Half-step to Heavenly Arrival could block. It was close to the power of Heavenly Arrival.
"Interesting." A smile appeared on Yang Wu's face as he faced the incoming saber light head-on.
The two saber lights collided fiercely. In an instant, a shocking saber Qi exploded and swept toward the bamboo.
The powerful saber light couldn't destroy the bamboo.
With the power of the Divine Chains, the bamboo wouldn't be destroyed easily.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have the power to attack those who crossed the river.
After all the power dissipated, Yang Wu was safe and sound. He didn't even move from his original spot. Finally, he attracted Xie Zhen's attention. "Who are you?"
"Yang Wu of the Battle Clan's Yang Wu of the Yang Family," Yang Wu replied calmly.
He could sense that the young man in front of him was a powerful opponent. He was worthy of his name.
"So it's you. You didn't let me down." Xie Zhen raised his eyebrows. After a pause, he said, "This matter is over. You can leave. Next time we meet, we'll fight."
Yang Wu nodded. He pulled Cao Jifei and continued to walk inside.
This place had the power of the Divine Chains. Every place was different. Without special abilities, it wasn't easy to get close to the central area of the Divine Palace. It was already amazing that Xie Zhen could reach this place.
"Xie Zhen's strength is terrifying. Are you a match for him?" Cao Jifei asked Yang Wu.
"It's hard to say. We'll only know after we fight," Yang Wu replied.
"I'm sorry. If I didn't speak carelessly, I wouldn't have made a strong enemy for you."
"It's not a big deal. What's going to come will come. Tell me more about him."
Yang Wu didn't know much about Xie Zhen. To be exact, he didn't know anything about the people on the Martial Saint Ranking List.
It wasn't that he was arrogant. It was just that his vision was no longer limited to the Transcendent World.
He had already set his mind on the Divine Realm. He was going to head there to find Zi Yu Yue, Yang Wen, his master, and Little Hei. There were many things that were worth his time. The geniuses and experts there were there. That was the place he yearned for.
Everything in the Transcendent World was just a stumbling block for him to conquer.
His ambition was huge.
