The Hundred Quills Ditch is a terrifying array, so terrifying that it reaches down to the surface of the earth and up to the sky. As long as it is within the confines of the Hundred Quicks Ditch, an invisible layer of pressure envelops it, oppressing humans.
This terrifying pressure was so great that even Chu Feng was unable to resist it, but it was such a place that there were still people staying here, and they were appearing right now.
“Hey! Is there someone there? Can you help me out?”
At this moment, Chu Feng was already in danger, but he knew that the owner of that hall must have a way to break this great formation, after all, that was most likely a blue-robed Boundary Spirit Master, and his boundary techniques were certainly far beyond Chu Feng’s reach.
Moreover, it was clear from the smoke that there was indeed someone here, and that he was indeed not affected by the strange pressure, otherwise how could he have the leisure to cook here?
At this moment, he no longer cared about the owner of the hall, whether it was dangerous or not, because if the owner was willing to help him, he would still have a chance of survival, but if he was not, he would definitely die.
“Just as Chu Feng was about to get close, a person flew out of the temple and landed on the top of the mountain peak.
It was an old man with white hair and wrinkles, but his eyes were gleaming. Most importantly, this old man was wearing a golden robe, and on the chest of that robe, there was a qilin engraved on it.
When the old man saw that Chu Feng was actually able to stand in the air, he could not help but frown, a look of surprise surging on his face, and only after a moment did he calm down and ask indifferently, “What are you?”
“This senior, my junior is a disciple of the Green Dragon Sect and has come to participate in the Yingjie Hunt.”
“Only because I failed to leave this Hundred Quelvets Ditch on time, I am bound by a strange pressure, and at this moment, I am unable to breathe, so I hope senior will save junior’s life.” Chu Feng got straight to the point, as he really didn’t have time for nonsense.
“I am sorry, I am not the owner of this place and cannot make the decision, so I will tell you this, wait for a moment, I will go and make some enquiries, as to whether he is willing to help you, that will depend on your fate.” The old man left those words behind and surveyed Chu Feng again with eyes full of surprise before his body swept into that hall.
At this moment, within the hall, an old man with crane-hair and wearing rough cloth was sitting in front of the cooker, crossing his legs and humming a little tune, excitedly simmering soup.
“It’s a hairy boy of Xuanwu 1st level.” The white-haired old man said.
“A Xuanwu 1st level brat? Feng Yang, are you kidding? That person clearly came from the sky, how could he be a Xuanwu 1st level cultivator? It should be a Heavenly Martial Realm,” the cloth-clothed old man skimmed his lips in confusion.
“You are a blue-robed Realm Spirit Master, so why don’t you just find out for yourself who it is?” The white-haired old man stared helplessly at the old man in cloth.
At this moment, the cloth-clothed old man had already closed his eyes, and when his eyes opened, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes, saying, “Impressive, at the first level of Xuanwu, he has mastered the means of imperial air, it seems that he has cultivated a special body technique martial skill, and he is not too old.
“But unfortunately, he can’t withstand the oppression of the formation here, so I’m afraid his life will not be saved.” The old man in cloth shook his head and continued to hum a little song as he simmered the broth in the stove.
“Brother Hengyuan, in Qingzhou, this kind of martial skill is not often seen, so I think this son must have received the inheritance of the Old Man of the Sky.
“Brother Hengyuan, can you do me the honour of saving his life?” The white-haired old man pleaded.
“Brother Feng Yang, the Royal Air Martial Skill is a rare treasure in the whole of Kyushu, just what does that have to do with me?”
“I live here in seclusion and don’t want anyone to disturb it, since he has discovered this place, there is no guarantee that he will leak the secret later, not to mention that he will be crushed to death by the formations here, even if he survives the disaster, I will not let him leave alive.” The old man in cloth laughed lightly.
“Brother Hengyuan, are you really going to see him die without saving him?” The white-haired old man, his brows slightly furrowed.
“It seems you still don’t know me well enough.” The old man in cloth laughed, unmoved.
“Swish,” and at this moment, the white-haired old man didn’t talk nonsense, but jumped out of the temple with a single bound and arrived at the top of the mountain peak once again.
He looked at that Chu Feng, whose feet were treading on the void and whose face was pale, ready to fall at any moment, and his brows were furrowed, as if he was making a difficult decision.
In the end, however, he gritted his teeth and pulled out a crystal-like token from his bosom, throwing it at Chu Feng and saying, “Take it.”
“When the token entered his hand, the invisible pressure that lingered around Chu Feng instantly dissipated, and the air and Xuan Power that had disappeared appeared around Chu Feng once again.
At this moment, Chu Feng was overjoyed because he was finally saved. He first closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths of air, and for the first time, he felt that breathing was such a comfortable thing.
“Senior, thank you very much …. Senior, how are you?”
Chu Feng wanted to say thank you, but he was shocked to find that the white-haired old man’s face was somewhat pale and ugly, and that appearance was extremely similar to the one he had just had.
“I only have one of that token, and if I give it to you, I will also be oppressed by the formation here.” The white-haired old man laughed plainly.
“What? This …..” And upon hearing this, Chu Feng was stunned, he could not imagine that this old man, who had met him for the first time and had no dealings with him, would save him at the expense of himself.
This put Chu Feng in a difficult position, he could tell that the owner of this place was unwilling to save him, and it was this old man who had taken the liberty of gifting Chu Feng with his own protection, but this had put him in a crisis himself.
Although Chu Feng wanted very much to live, he was unwilling to let such an old man, whom he had met for the first time, lose his life for saving him.
“Chu Feng, quickly write down the formation in that token, as long as you write it down, I can help you make such a protective token, and then you will naturally be able to resist the formations here.” Just at that moment, Egg’s pleasant voice rang out in Chu Feng’s mind.
At that moment, Chu Feng dawned on him and dared not hesitate any longer, but hurriedly poured his spiritual energy into that crystal-shaped token to delve into the formations within that token.
A moment later, he looked up expressively and found that the white-haired old man’s face had become more and more unsightly, so he said, “Junior Chu Feng, I don’t know senior’s name, junior will definitely repay the kindness of saving his life today later.”
“Heh, so your name is Chu Feng? That’s a good name.” Qi Fengyang forced out a smile, but he could not hide the pain that he could hardly breathe.
“No words of thanks for the great kindness, Chu Feng will repay the kindness with his actions later, senior, we will meet again.” After saying those words, Chu Feng threw the token in his hand at Qi Fengyang.
“Little friend Chu Feng, you ….” As Qi Fengyang received the token, he noticed that Chu Feng had already turned around and left, at this moment he wanted to catch up, but he was unable to do anything about it as he was unable to fly through the air.
“This kid still has some backbone, but it’s good, if he doesn’t return this protective token of mine to you, I will also personally take it back, it’s better for him to hand it over voluntarily than for me to kill him with my hands.”
At that moment, a faint laugh sounded out, and the old man in cloth with crane-hair and a boy’s face had silently appeared beside Qi Fengyang, except that he was not standing on top of the mountain peak, but hanging in the air.
