Chapter 1046: Chapter 1043: The Deathless King’s Blade, the Terrifying Old Man!

"This courtyard is quite strange..."

Luo Feng remarked suspiciously.

"You’ve noticed?"

Lin Hongyi glanced at Luo Feng with surprise and then explained, "An illusion array has been set up here. What you’re seeing is all an illusion."

"Illusion array?"

Luo Feng showed surprise. During the assessment at the Twelve Golden Palace, he encountered formations that caused hallucinations, but with his soul perception, he easily discovered the existence of the formation.

The illusion in front almost made him believe it! No doubt, the person who set up this illusion array is far from ordinary.

To have such a powerful illusion array set up in one’s backyard, it made Luo Feng anticipate even more what Lin Hongyi was about to show him.

Lin Hongyi stepped forward, her right hand constantly changing, casting hundreds of dazzling hand gestures, then suddenly murmured, "Release!"

Whoosh!

The sound of receding tides echoed, the scenery before Luo Feng twisted, the picturesque garden seemed washed away like a painting, its colors faded and soon disappeared, revealing a simple courtyard.

The courtyard was barren, with no vegetation, just a lonely stone chamber standing at the far end.

"Let’s go."

Lin Hongyi gazed at the stone chamber, took a deep breath, and stepped into the courtyard.

Luo Feng followed, his gaze remaining fixed on the stone chamber, his expression heavy.

He sensed a familiar aura from the stone chamber, something mysteriously connected with him, causing the Yuan Qi within him to stir uncontrollably.

What a terrifying aura, what’s inside...

Luo Feng frowned slightly, instinctively releasing soul power to probe the stone chamber.

Buzz!

Suddenly, without any warning, the entire courtyard began to surge with a terrifying, fierce momentum erupting from the stone chamber, forming an invisible saber light in the air, enveloping Luo Feng.

Wherever this saber light passed, the air remained utterly still, as though it didn’t exist, yet the hair-raising sharpness made Luo Feng clear its definite presence, a danger beyond measure.

Beneath this saber light, everything seemed insignificant, capable of obliterating any trace of life!

"Slash!"

Without hesitation, Luo Feng sliced his palm like a saber, driving his Grand Momentum to the limit and striking down.

Schlaff!

The two invisible saber lights met mid-air, Luo Feng’s body shuddered, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and staggered back several steps, barely able to stand.

"Luo Feng!"

Lin Hongyi cried out in alarm, reaching out her fair hand to steady Luo Feng, and asked with a furrowed brow, "Are you alright?"

"It’s not a problem."

Luo Feng shook his head, recalling the previous scene and looked towards the stone chamber, his gaze flickering uncertainly.

Lin Hongyi asked, "What’s wrong?"

"The attack on me should have been the Grand Momentum."

Luo Feng was no stranger to such encounters, he turned to Lin Hongyi, "Remember at Blackwater Lake?"

Lin Hongyi nodded slightly, recalling a similar incident at that time.

Luo Feng looked at his palm, then towards the stone chamber, pondering aloud, "At Blackwater Lake, I was attacked by the residual Martial Arts will of the Deathless King, the feeling was the same as now, even the Grand Momentum’s aura was identical. Hong Yi, what’s inside the stone chamber?"

Lin Hongyi’s eyes flickered slightly, she pursed her lips, "Inside is..."

Click-click-click-click-click...

Suddenly, the stone chamber’s door trembled, inch by inch it opened, sunlight streaming inside.

Luo Feng looked into the stone chamber, his expression shifting as his gaze settled in the center of it.

There stood a jade table, upon which was embedded a broken saber.

The broken saber was two feet long, with just a hilt and a small part of the blade remaining, the hilt shaped like a dragon’s head, swallowing the blade, and threads of purple lightning flickered across it. Despite being merely half a saber, it exuded an extraordinary aura, brimming with a terrifying spiritual pressure capable of piercing the heart and suppressing the soul.

After a moment, Luo Feng snapped back to reality, shocked by the broken saber on the jade table:

"What a terrifying Grand Momentum, capable of suppressing my spirit, making me struggle..."

Lin Hongyi let out a small sigh and told Luo Feng, "This is what I wanted to show you, the residual Grand Momentum within this saber might help you break through the Grand Momentum bottleneck."

Luo Feng examined the broken saber closely, suddenly recalling the vision he experienced at Blackwater Lake, where a master swordsman split the void with one slash, the saber in his hand was this very one.

"Could it be...the Deathless King’s saber?"

With the thought, Luo Feng blurted out.

"Indeed..."

Lin Hongyi’s eyes revealed a trace of surprise, her lips pressing tightly.

At this moment, a voice suddenly echoed.

"You guessed correctly, this Thunder Dragon Saber was indeed the Deathless King’s saber from a thousand years ago."

Hearing the voice, Luo Feng’s expression shifted, turning instantly towards the direction of the sound.

Twenty steps away stood a stooped, gaunt old man, dressed in black, hair and beard all white, leaning on a cane. His eyes were murky, like an elderly man at the twilight of his years, ordinary and unremarkable.

"Who are you?"

Studying the old man, Luo Feng immediately drew Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, a cold sweat forming on his forehead.

With his soul perception, even a Martial Artist in the Four Spirit Rotations entering his vicinity of a hundred meters could be detected clearly.

Yet this seemingly ordinary old man had approached twenty steps behind him without him noticing. Luo Feng even believed the man could walk beside him without detection.

This person is undoubtedly a master!

Moreover, a master unlike any he’s encountered before.

Even the Hall Master of the Business Alliance Hall at Big Market City, whose cultivation nearly reaches the Yuan Sea Realm, pales in comparison to this individual!

The old man glanced at Luo Feng, showed no expression, then turned his gaze to Lin Hongyi, bowing slightly, respectfully saying:

"Miss, why didn’t you inform me on your return?"

Lin Hongyi unexpectedly showed a trace of tension, lightly pursing her lips, quietly moved to Luo Feng’s side, and said:

"Uncle Qiu, I decided on the spur of the moment to come back."

Uncle Qiu...

Luo Feng’s mind raced, realizing this was the elder Lin Hongyi mentioned. Feeling relief, yet his mind spun with countless thoughts; this mysterious Uncle Qiu addressed Lin Hongyi as ’Miss,’ and they resided in such a humble abode.

Most startling of all, that broken saber was the Sealing King’s saber—the Deathless King’s saber from a thousand years ago!

"Uncle Qiu, let me introduce you. This is Luo Feng, a disciple of Linglong Hall, my friend."

"Friend?"

The old man’s brow lifted, his gaze fixed sharply on Luo Feng, his murky eyes suddenly flashing like lightning, hiding a deep-seated killing intent!
