The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 280 Encountering an Old Friend [Part 1]

In the Third Ring area, azure light shimmered as Feng Ling stepped out of the vortex and landed on the rising black cloud beneath his feet.

Upon reaching the Third Ring Road area, a strange anti-air force firmly sealed off the space, making it impossible for anyone to fly under this anti-air condition. Even someone with profound cultivation like Feng Ling could only glide at low altitudes by relying on jumping.

Of course, creatures with the ability to fly that originally existed in the Land of Nine Infants are not subject to this restriction, and the Black Cloud Mount, as an exclusive benefit for all adventurers, is also not subject to the no-fly zone.

Therefore, after assessing the situation, Feng Ling immediately summoned the black clouds and sent them soaring into the dark night sky to survey the surrounding area.

This level presents a strange challenge. Unlike the previous levels where you are directly teleported to your destination, this level gives you a hint: find a place with water and repair the damaged Heart of Heaven.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a deafening explosion shook the Third Ring Road area. From a distant valley came the sounds of fierce fighting, interspersed with the roars of ghosts and the cries of birds and beasts.

"Someone's here!" Feng Ling's eyebrows twitched slightly. He urgently needed to identify the source, but he felt it would be inappropriate to rush over and ask. Instead, he detected a familiar aura from the fluctuations of his divine sense: "Demon Jade!"

……

"Get out!" Inside the valley, a strong wind howled, rocks flew, towering ancient trees snapped in response, and dozens of figures were sent flying backward, coughing up blood.

Immediately afterward, a woman exuding a fierce aura snorted coldly and flew past at lightning speed, retracting her red silk whip with a light wave of her hand.

From the moment she broke through the Nine Rings barrier, the group following her continued to expand, reaching several thousand people at its peak. Although most of them were scattered and surrounded by ghosts as they ventured deeper into the Nine Infants Land, those with profound cultivation levels of twelfth or thirteenth rank followed her like a persistent leech, impossible to shake off.

It's no wonder that Mo Yu was angry. These people, relying on their high cultivation levels, were extremely arrogant. Every time she activated the soundproof barrier in front of her and focused on breaking the barrier, she would make a huge commotion behind her, attracting groups of vengeful ghosts and vengeful spirits, which would only cause a lot of unnecessary trouble and conflict.

It can be said that if these people hadn't frequently exposed her whereabouts, she would have already broken into the Second Ring Road area, and there would have been no need for her to take a detour of several kilometers to this valley to kill thousands of vengeful ghosts.

"Pfft—" The group landed and steadied themselves, gazing in the direction the woman had disappeared. They spat out another mouthful of blood: "Damn it! We risked our lives to help her defend against the ghost horde, allowing her to unleash her powerful abilities without any worries. Now that we've wiped out the ghost horde, she's turning on us and trying to enter the Second Ring alone. It's outrageous! If our cultivation weren't so inferior to hers, we would have captured her today and made her suffer endless torment!"

"Hmph! The Dream Eater Ghost Venerable is absolutely right. This woman is ungrateful and, relying on her high cultivation level, has repeatedly disregarded us elders..." Upon hearing this, everyone's faces darkened.

Immediately, someone suggested, "Gentlemen, my Buddhist name is Xieyun, and I am most skilled in combined attack techniques. Why don't we put aside our past grievances and join forces to fight the enemy for the time being? What do you all think?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present, except for two very old men, was shocked. They stared at the old man with the beard and hair who had spoken and exclaimed, "Xie Yun!? You are the Xie Yun Demon Lord, who is known as the one who is invincible in secret techniques below the epic level?"

Life is not about persevering because of hope; it's about seeing hope because we persevere.

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages offer you a pure land for your souls.
