Capítulo 1087: Chapter 1088: The Terrifying Light Wheel
Lin Fei and the nine elders, along with hundreds of legendary masters, returned to the Flying Heaven Secret Realm, and couldn’t help but be stunned by what they saw.
To the south of Flying Heaven Island, a massive black mountain was erupting with dazzling light, forming a huge light wheel within a ten-mile radius around the peak.
This light wheel possessed a world-shaking aura, as if some unknown heavenly treasures lay within.
The brilliance of the light wheel no longer spread across the Pacific Ocean as it did before.
It had now retracted within the boundaries of the Flying Heaven Secret Realm, and although the Secret Realm was protected by an array, it couldn’t completely conceal the astonishing light wheel, allowing masters of other Secret Realms to easily notice it.
Lin Fei never expected that the light wheel which startled the ocean was actually emitted from the Flying Heaven Secret Realm.
And after the light wheel erupted, the entire Flying Heaven Island seemed as though it had been hit by a hurricane; all the mountains and forests were toppled in large patches, and even the palatial buildings of the Flying Heaven Sword Sect, built with Secret Realm spirit stones that were stronger due to Spiritual Qi infusion, saw dozens of palaces collapse.
This is a testament to the terrifying power of the light’s eruption.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
The legendary masters and disciples of the Flying Heaven Sword Sect flew up from various peaks, gathering around Lin Fei in the air.
They collectively saluted Lin Fei, respectfully saying, “Greetings, Sect Leader.”
Lin Fei nodded slightly and asked them, “Are you all alright?”
These legendary masters and disciples all shook their heads, “We are fine.”
Yet there remained a hint of astonishment on their faces, reflecting the profound impact the earlier eruption of light and aura had left on them.
At this moment, two legendary masters looked at Lin Fei and said, “Sect Leader, because of the palace’s collapse, Gao Qiu, the Young Master of the Divine Sword Sect whom we imprisoned within the palace, was unfortunately buried and we’ve found his corpse.”
Lin Fei never anticipated that his capture of Gao Qiu, intended to coerce the Divine Sword Sect, would ultimately lead to Gao Qiu’s death beneath the collapsing palace.
This truly caught him by surprise, indicating that his feud with the Divine Sword Sect was now solidified.
Nonetheless, even if Gao Qiu hadn’t died unexpectedly, the enmity between him and the Divine Sword Sect couldn’t be resolved.
“Go bury him properly,” Lin Fei instructed the two legendary masters.
The two legendary masters agreed and went to handle Gao Qiu’s remains.
Lin Fei looked toward the south of Flying Heaven Island, at the light wheel enveloping a ten-mile radius, like a half-moon lying on the island, and questioned the Second Elder Fa Kun beside him, “Second Elder, has anything like this ever happened on the island before?”
Second Elder Fa Kun replied solemnly, “The location of the light wheel is on a mountain called Fire Dragon Mountain. At its peak is a massive thousand-year cave that erupts like a volcano every fifty years.”
“But an occurrence like today, where a light wheel appears and golden light erupts towards the entire ocean, has never happened before.”
Continuing, Fa Kun shared his doubts with Lin Fei: “Among the Thirty-Six Secret Realm sects, there is a legend that says there is Earth Core Anomalous Fire in the thousand-year cave on this island. We don’t know if it’s true, but today’s eruption of such an incredible light wheel from the cave is indeed peculiar.”
“Earth Core Anomalous Fire?” Lin Fei repeated, intrigued.
Fa Kun then recounted the story passed among the sects to Lin Fei: “They say beneath our Flying Heaven Island’s thousand-year cave lies the convergence of all Spirit Veins of the Pacific Ocean, coupled with the compression from oceanic tectonic movements, forming the Earth Core Anomalous Fire.”
After finishing, Fa Kun added another note to Lin Fei, “However, no one has ever seen the Earth Core Anomalous Fire.”
Looking at the distant light wheel, Lin Fei said, “Regardless of whether the Earth Core Anomalous Fire truly exists, the appearance of this light wheel is extraordinarily unusual, and it certainly harbors something highly extraordinary.
Moreover, the eruption of light and aura earlier affected the ocean, so I believe other sects will soon arrive. If there’s truly a treasure, we cannot let other sects claim it.”
The Second Elder Fa Kun and several elders nodded in agreement, “The Sect Leader is right.”
“Let’s go over,” Lin Fei commanded.
Lin Fei and all the elders, legendary masters, and disciples flew to the light wheel enveloping the ten-mile radius and then stopped, for everyone felt the terrifying aura emanating from within.
Bursts of energy waves clearly emanated from the light wheel.
Although the energy of the light wheel was not erupting across the ocean like before, Lin Fei and everyone knew that approaching the light wheel could lead to unexpected events.
“Sect Leader, there’s strong and abnormal energy inside this light wheel, and we cannot enter,” Fa Kun stated to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei nodded, “Let me check how strong the energy inside the light wheel is.”
After saying this, Lin Fei took out two Profound Energy Life-taking Needles from his bosom; with a flick of his hand, the two needles flew into the light wheel.
With a boom, the moment the two Profound Iron Life-taking Needles entered the light wheel, fierce flames ignited, and amid billowing smoke, the needles were incinerated into black smoke within moments, disappearing without a trace.
Upon seeing this, Fa Kun and the other elders, along with all legendary masters, gasped, for Lin Fei had cast weapons forged from Profound Iron into the light wheel. Although not the highest-grade magical artifacts, Profound Iron was known for its resistance to molding and burning, requiring several days and nights in a blazing furnace to possibly melt.
Yet Lin Fei’s Profound Iron Life-taking Needles, once entering the light wheel, were completely consumed with nothing left behind – the energy within the light wheel was extremely terrifying.
If they were to enter the light wheel themselves, it’s imaginable they would likely be vaporized into air.
Lin Fei frowned, realizing the terrorizing energy within the light wheel likely exceeded his expectations.
“Wait here while I go in to check,” Lin Fei decided, addressing all the elders.
The nine elders were shocked upon hearing Lin Fei’s intent to enter the light wheel.
Fa Kun even advised Lin Fei, “Sect Leader, the energy within the light wheel can obliterate Profound Iron Weapons completely. Is it too risky to enter with your physical body?”
Lin Fei replied, “Although it poses danger, should the light wheel contain heavenly treasures, it’s worth the risk.”
After saying this, Lin Fei prepared to enter the light wheel, when suddenly, a rumbling echoed above the Flying Heaven Secret Realm, and the air shook violently, followed by the sight of thousands of legendary masters and disciples breaking through the Secret Realm’s array entering the Flying Heaven Secret Realm.
These thousands of legendary masters and disciples split into three main groups: one led by Long Tu, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Dragon Sect in a yellow robe; one led by the Sect Leader of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect in an embroidered mask robe; and one led by the Sect Leader of the Divine Sword Sect.
“Celestial Dragon Sect, Profound Celestial Sword Sect, Divine Sword Sect!” Fa Kun observed the arrival of the top three sects among the Thirty-Six Secret Realms, and his complexion changed dramatically.
Other elders and all legendary masters as well as disciples of the Flying Heaven Sword Sect also grew increasingly uneasy.
Lin Fei frowned, looking at the massive lineup of the three sects entering the Flying Heaven Secret Realm, he pondered silently: Who would have thought they’d arrive so quickly!
