The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 1608 - 868: Stairway (Part 2)
This invisible sword intent fluctuated like a clear stream. Lin Feng gracefully waved his hand, and the supreme intention to break prohibitions fluttered like petals dancing in the wind, flowing with the spring breeze, flowers falling and blooming.
With just a sword swing like this, all the prohibitions in the Enchanting Stairs were completely eradicated. The entire corridor returned to its original appearance, and a straight passage appeared in front of Lin Feng, who then transformed into a stream of light, charging towards the darkness.
Lin Feng rushed into the underground secret passage, where darkness was so deep that you couldn’t see your hand. He didn’t use spells to light up his path because he felt that emitting light in the dark would undoubtedly expose him to lurking dangers.
He simply relied on his spiritual senses to swiftly proceed in the darkness, not knowing how much time had passed. Finally, he saw a door ahead emitting light.
At this time, Hua Shengmi said: "Lin Feng, look, we’ve found the way out."
Although they saw the exit, from the judgment of the spiritual perception, it was clear that this distance was not short.
Because the higher the cultivator’s cultivation, the farther the vision they have, plus the brightness of the light was particularly conspicuous in the deep passage.
So Lin Feng faced no obstacles, easily gazing towards the passage’s end.
"There’s still an estimated 10 miles to go, isn’t it better to use the Void Technique to directly teleport there?"
Hua Shengmi reminded Lin Feng.
"No need, let’s try to suppress our aura. I suspect something unusual is waiting for us ahead."
"Okay."
Although Lin Feng sensed something unusual ten miles away, Hua Shengmi hadn’t noticed anything. It wasn’t until they were five meters from the exit that a dark flow surged towards Lin Feng’s face, and Lin Feng promptly used the Void Technique to effectively evade the brown dark light.
How was Lin Feng able to sense this fast-attacking dark light in the darkness? It wasn’t because Lin Feng had amazing vision that could see in the dark.
Lin Feng wasn’t so powerful to such a degree; he could see through the dark light in the darkness because his spiritual senses detected the deadly dark flow’s emitted aura, which was fed back to Lin Feng’s mind.
Promptly, Lin Feng instinctively activated the Void Technique.
The miraculous displacement of the Void Technique encapsulated incredible steps. It’s a test of the user’s precise calculation of time and space and then stimulated the flow of spiritual energy to successfully shift their current space.
There was no doubt this dark flow was the powerful sword intent released by whoever or whatever was lurking at the entrance earlier.
This potent sword intent is so brutal that it can directly pierce the body of anyone hit by it; whether it cuts through or not, it can penetrate. Finally, a tremendously explosive shadow power infiltrates the body to attack the person mentally.
"Who was that person just now?" Hua Shengmi asked Lin Feng curiously.
"I don’t know either, we’ll see when we get out. That person’s movement technique is so bizarre that my spiritual perception can’t capture it."
Lin Feng simply answered Hua Shengmi.
Soon, Lin Feng passed through the dark path. After a few flashes, he arrived at the central hall. There stood a high platform, steps leading to a throne, and next to it were a few ornate large boxes. However, they were covered in dust, appearing quite antiquated. But with the lids slightly ajar, one could vaguely notice a bright gem-like glow sparkling.
Lin Feng turned his head, examining the box in front of him coated in red enamel. This type of glaze ensures that the Second Grade spiritual wood-made box remains uncorroded for a long time.
Because it’s Second Grade spiritual wood, its hardness compares with Mortal World’s ironware.
Generally, no insect can gnaw through it.
Therefore, these boxes are usually used to store clothing or jewels; some even directly use Second Grade spiritual wood to craft furniture.
The treasure box Lin Feng saw was bordered with gold edges. The golden bars had distinct patterns carved onto them.
Lin Feng assumed the box contained a pile of jewels and didn’t pay much attention to the contents.
Until Hua Shengmi stopped him, after Lin Feng opened the treasure box, he discovered it contained the King’s scepter.
The radiant gem atop was not ordinary jewelry but a powerful Seven Grade treasure artifact.
Lin Feng didn’t know what this stone was for, but he took it and threw it into his storage silk bag.
Then he took all the jewels inside as well; these jewels were not mortal grade, all were Fifth Grade or above spiritual artifacts.
It’s a good choice for crafting various treasures.
Lin Feng decided that once he returned, he would craft some treasures for his two disciples.
But when all these jewels were taken, the light in the hall gradually dimmed.
Lin Feng looked up, and saw it was a huge Luminous Pearl, gradually darkening.
"Could it be we took the wrong thing?"
Hua Shengmi timidly said.
"Even if it’s wrong, we can’t return it."
Lin Feng replied.
They watched as the treasure box beside the throne began to sink, then directly sank underground.
Soon after, the door previously open was sealed off, blocking the exit.
Even the former dark passage turned even darker, Lin Feng couldn’t return to that dark path, as it would mean giving himself a chance to re-enter danger.
Lin Feng also couldn’t retreat to the Stone Temple’s entrance; in this dim underground, it felt as though cut off from the world, only by proceeding downward could there be hope of survival.
At this moment, the entire hall grew dark, countless mechanisms were being activated.
These mechanisms are undoubtedly fatal dangers to mortals or those with low cultivation.
In the darkness, Lin Feng was no longer cautious like before, not because he had given up struggling, but because once the enemy was aware of them, there was no need for concealment.
Sometimes, a direct attack is better than being timid and fearful.
Being straightforward is effective; directness often wins against the enemy. Victories are often achieved by openly using one’s methods, rather than being hesitant.
Doing something slowly doesn’t necessarily mean doing it well, achieving it at the apt speed might be best. Excessive pondering is often redundant thinking, wasting time and reducing decisiveness.
Only clean and swift execution counts as best performance, while excessive deliberation is a trait of the weak.
Clearly, Lin Feng is not such a weak person; he is a powerful hero in the Mortal Realm, the true leader of Peace City. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Thus, without hesitation, he activated his Extreme Wind Defense.
White light emanated from Lin Feng, shielding against the arrows shooting towards him, shattering them into pieces with the powerful spiritual energy vortex.
These arrows were crafted meticulously, emitting spiritual energy from them made it clear the arrow shafts were made of Third Grade Golden Pear Wood, which is as sturdy as diamonds.
When combined with the inherent characteristics of spiritual wood, it enhanced the quality of Golden Pear Wood. Even Second Grade spiritual iron could be cut into two by a short sword made of Golden Pear Wood.
Therefore, Golden Pear Wood is also an excellent material for crafting magical treasures.
"The arrow shafts are so incredibly strong, despite being hit by Extreme Wind Defense, they only turned into fragments rather than dust."
