Chapter 226: A Fog Is Rising!
From this, it was clear that the well-preserved and powerful divine artifacts once housed in the temple had long since been seized by Hong Baiwei and his men.
Hong Baiwei, oh Hong Baiwei... you're practically giving me treasures for free, Li Yanchu thought to himself.
He paused for a moment in thought, but made no attempt to conceal anything.
He directly stored the treasures into his Universe Pouch. Artifacts like these existed only in legends, and ordinary people wouldn’t even be able to imagine them.
Besides, Ding Rou had already grown somewhat numb to Li Yanchu’s godlike methods.
After killing Hong Baiwei, Li Yanchu continued exploring the temple, and even ate seven or eight of the dates in succession. Only then did the intense pain in his chest finally subside.
Hong Baiwei’s divine bow had contained a fierce and tyrannical killing power. If not for the talisman armor Li Yanchu wore, he likely wouldn’t have been able to withstand the attack at all.
After passing through a dark and eerie side hall of the temple, Li Yanchu arrived at a vast, open square. Massive stone pillars stood all around the square, bearing the marks of blade strikes and fire damage. There was no trace of the ethereal aura one might expect from an immortal sect’s sacred ground; on the contrary, it felt more like a giant execution ground.
At the center of the square stood a towering divine tree, its branches lush and flourishing, radiating an ancient and desolate aura.
Beneath the tree stood four people.
There was Chen Yang of the Court of Judicial Review, wielding a long spear; Xiao Ce, with twin sabers at his waist; and the burly monk Jiekong.
The fourth was a graceful woman in white with her face veiled, standing at a distance from the others. A sense of mystery surrounded her, and she was impossible to read.
