Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 1539 No caller ID, so inconvenient.

"Such rich spiritual energy," Master Yulin murmured.

Master Yunyi walked to his side and also looked into the depths of the passage.

"This is just a wisp of energy that has escaped. The true core of the array possesses spiritual power far beyond our imagination. The core of our Cloud Sea Sect's protective array absorbs the underground spiritual power of the three thousand miles of Tianyun Mountain Range day and night. Over countless years, the spiritual power within that core has reached an extremely terrifying level."

Master Yulin remained silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Second brother, have any of the patriarchs in history successfully broken through to the Heavenly Limit Realm by using the power of this array's core?"

Master Yunyi said, "Although this secret technique has been passed down through generations, it has not been used very often. Every time it is used, it is when the sect is facing a life-or-death crisis. And those who use it are mostly doing so with the intention of dying to try and seize that sliver of hope. Whether they succeed or fail depends entirely on fate."

Master Yulin nodded and did not ask any further questions.

He knew that Master Yunyi said these words to make him understand the dangers of this journey.

From the moment he agreed to Master Yunyi's request, he had already prepared himself mentally.

He was a martial arts fanatic, and his greatest dream in life was to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.

Whether he lives or dies, succeeds or fails, he accepts it all with equanimity.

"Let's go."

Master Yulin took the lead and stepped onto the downward-sloping stone steps.

Master Yunyi watched his retreating figure, a complex expression flashing in his eyes, before following after him.

The two of them, one in front of the other, gradually descended into the underground along the spiraling stone steps.

After they went down, the cave entrance quickly returned to its original state, the giant cauldron landed back on the ground, and the mysterious runes slowly disappeared, as if nothing had ever happened.

The passage was much deeper than they had imagined. The two walked for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and still could not see the end.

However, the surrounding spiritual energy became increasingly dense, and eventually, it almost condensed into a light mist that drifted through the passage.

With each breath, the spiritual energy entered his body through his mouth and nose, making Master Yulin feel a slight warmth throughout his meridians.

Finally, a stone door appeared ahead.

The stone gate is about three zhang high and is carved from a single piece of huge green jade stone. The gate is covered with dense runes.

The runes were exactly the same as those on the giant cauldron before, and they were now emitting a faint golden light.

Master Yunyi walked to the stone gate and placed his hand on it.

He chanted the incantation again, and the runes on the stone gate immediately shone brightly.

Immediately afterwards, a muffled rumble resounded, and the stone gate slowly opened to both sides.

A more concentrated and vast spiritual energy surged out from inside the door like a tide, almost knocking people off their feet.

Master Yulin took a deep breath and stepped through the stone gate.

Behind the door was an extremely vast space, several tens of feet in circumference and more than ten feet high. The entire space was circular, and the dome was inlaid with countless fist-sized luminous pearls, densely packed, like a sky full of stars.

In the center of the space was a huge pool.

The pool was about three zhang in diameter, its walls made of crystal-clear white jade, and filled with golden liquid.

The golden liquid was not still, but flowing slowly, occasionally rippling. Each time a ripple appeared, a wisp of golden mist would rise from the pool and drift into the air.

Master Yunyi walked to the edge of the pool and stared at the golden liquid in it.

"This is the core of the array. This golden liquid is the spiritual energy that has accumulated here over countless years. After being condensed by the array, it has turned into a liquid state."

Master Yulin walked to the edge of the pool and looked down at the golden liquid.

He could sense that the power contained within the pool was as vast as the sea and unfathomable. Compared to it, the spiritual power within his body was like a drop in the ocean, utterly insignificant.

At the same time, an elderly man dressed in a Taoist robe slowly walked out from inside the ancestral hall.

It was none other than Yuhengzi.

The internal strife in Yunhai Sect a few months ago led everyone to point the finger at Yuhengzi. Everyone in Yunhai Sect thought that Yuhengzi had been secretly executed by Yunyi Shangren. Only a very few people knew that Yuhengzi had been living in a secret room inside the ancestral hall arranged by Yunyi Shangren during this period.

Master Yunyi knew that Yuheng had been framed, and that the real mastermind behind the troubles at Yunhai Sect was someone else.

Yuheng frowned as he looked around.

He had just sensed a huge energy fluctuation and thought something had happened. After coming out of the secret room, he didn't feel anything unusual, but the spiritual energy and runes hadn't completely dissipated. In particular, the runes on the bronze cauldron were still emitting a faint glow.

After looking around, he didn't see Senior Brother Yulin, which made him feel very strange.

Wanfo Peak.

night.

Inside an abandoned temple.

Ling Yunzhi caught a few grouse and was currently plucking them by the fire, while Sanzhier waited by with drooling eyes to start eating.

Chu Liunian and Qin Ying were sitting not far away, talking about something, while Ye Feng was holding the Spirit Sound Mirror and talking to Luan Xiong.

He recounted his observations over the past two days to Luan Xiong, and also told him that he had found a new place for the Holy Maiden Sect, and asked the girls to pack their belongings in the next couple of days. As long as the compensation for the demolition of the Luoying Sect arrives, they can move at any time.

The girls were overjoyed to hear that they had found a new home. They chattered excitedly around Luan Xiong, talking to the Spirit Sound Mirror and their sect leader, making it impossible for Luan Xiong to get a word in edgewise.

Ye Feng told Luan Xiong and the girls that he would return tomorrow, and then ended the video call.

Inside the cave, the group of girls were chattering excitedly about their new home.

Some of the girls were also a little sad.

Although the caves are crowded, many of them have gotten used to life here and consider it their home.

For a long time, they thought they would live here for the rest of their lives.

Now that they really have to move out, they still feel a little reluctant.

Li Xue and several other senior leaders noticed the reluctance in the hearts of many of the women and began to offer words of comfort.

Ye Feng was unaware that the girls from the Holy Maiden Sect were wallowing in melancholy on the other side of the cave. He looked at the Spirit Sound Mirror in his hand and was caught in a dilemma.

According to his agreement with Lingyin, he could not reveal his identity or contact anyone from the Yunhai Sect before the transaction between the Demonic Sect and the Yunhai Sect was completed.

Ye Feng originally thought it would take several days to find a new location, but he found a suitable place in just two days.

Now that he has initially resolved the matter of the Holy Maiden Sect, the image of Yun Shuang'er inevitably begins to appear in his mind again.

All he knows now is that Yun Shuang'er has returned to Yunhai Sect; he knows nothing about what happened after that.

Back in Jiuhua Mountain, Ye Wei's cheap father let slip that Yun Shuang'er's birth mother was still alive, and Ye Wei also implicated himself in the matter.

Ye Feng was very concerned about Yun Shuang'er's current situation.

Just as Ye Feng was hesitating whether to make a video call to Yun Shuang'er, the Spirit Sound Mirror suddenly trembled slightly.

Ye Feng was taken aback and muttered, "No way, who made the video call? It's really inconvenient that there's no caller ID."
