Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

The area inside the stone gate is not large, about several tens of feet in circumference.

However, it contains countless rare treasures, piled up like mountains, dazzling the eyes.

As one of the top martial arts forces around Fancheng, the Mojinmen has a very deep foundation.

Besides a large number of gold and silver utensils and antique artifacts, there was also a pile of pills and weapons scattered around the Shimen Treasure Vault, which were obviously seized by some of the Mojin Sect disciples as tribute.

Although Lu Feng was envious of the dazzling array of tributes in the treasure vault, he did not immediately plunder them.

Because, compared to these material possessions, his mother's belongings were more important.

"Found it...!"

After rummaging around in a corner of the treasure vault for a while, Lu Feng was overjoyed. He then pulled out half of a small, exquisitely crafted jade pendant that was bluish in color.

The jade pendant had an incredibly smooth surface with a faint coolness to it. On the back was engraved a lifelike picture of a mythical beast, like a phoenix dancing in the sky. Although it was incomplete, it was clearly no ordinary piece.

"Yeah, I finally found it...!"

Just as Lu Feng was secretly pleased, a sinister laugh suddenly rang out.

"Who goes there?!"

Lu Feng turned around abruptly, only to see a familiar figure blocking the entrance to the stone gate, and his heart sank.

The newcomer was dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, carrying a Luoyang shovel on his back. His sinister face was now etched with a hint of ruthlessness. He was none other than Wu Tong, Liu Dahu's former accomplice.

"So it's Brother Wu Tong..."

Lu Feng suppressed his inner turmoil and forced a forced smile, "Hehe, I wonder what brings Brother Wu Tong here to see me?"

As fellow disciples of the Tomb Raiders Sect, he naturally knew Wu Tong's background perfectly well.

Although his opponent was not as strong as Liu Dahu in the past, and was only at the third level of Body Refinement Realm, he was still strong enough to crush him.

To save his life, Lu Feng had no choice but to show weakness and bow his head.

"Stop playing dumb with me!"

Wu Tong stepped forward and grabbed Lu Feng by the neck, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Tell me! Where did you hide that magic treasure that turns stones into gold? Or I'll kill you!"

"Brother Wu, Brother Wu Tong... I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about..."

Despite his inner turmoil, Lu Feng pretended not to know anything in the face of Wu Tong's threat.

After all, he knew exactly what kind of person the other party was.

Moreover, a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.

If he backs down and hands over the treasure bowl, he'll probably suffer an even worse fate!

"You little bastard, do you think I don't know anything?"

Seeing that Lu Feng was still pretending to be stupid, Wu Tong was furious. He immediately exerted force with his palm and knocked the former to the ground.

Bang!

His body crashed to the ground, and Lu Feng felt as if his internal organs were ruptured, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

"You won't talk, huh? Then you might as well die!"

Wu Tong then stomped hard on Lu Feng's chest, breaking his ribs and causing him to vomit blood.

"Damn it...!"

"Could it be that I, young master, am destined to die here today...!"

With Wu Tong firmly pinning him under his feet, Lu Feng was filled with resentment, his teeth clenched, trying to struggle and resist, but he couldn't muster any strength.

After all, he was just an ordinary boy with no strength to even kill a chicken, and he had not yet condensed the seed of Yuan Power in his body. He was no match for a Body Refinement Realm martial artist!

"Ancient...ancient...!"

At the critical moment of life and death, Lu Feng wanted to call on Gu Canyang for help, but the other party did not respond at all, as if the spiritual energy of the treasure basin had been exhausted.

"Hmph, let's see how long you can last!"

Glancing at Lu Feng at his feet, Wu Tong pulled out the Luoyang shovel from his back and slashed fiercely at the man's left arm.

Click!

In an instant, a cold glint flashed, and a splash of crimson blood appeared.

"Ugh...!"

The next moment, Lu Feng also screamed in agony as Wu Tong severed his entire left arm on the spot, instantly spilling blood and revealing the white bone beneath.

"Wu Tong, you treacherous dog! I will kill you...!"

Despite the excruciating pain from his severed left arm, Lu Feng's eyes were bloodshot, veins bulging on his forehead, and his gaze toward Wu Tong was filled with murderous intent.

"You think you're worthy?"

"You little beast, die!"

Faced with Lu Feng's overwhelming killing intent, Wu Tong merely smiled disdainfully, and the next moment, he swung his Luoyang shovel fiercely at the man's head.

hum!

Just as Lu Feng was about to lose his head, a strange white light swept out from his chest and then enveloped Wu Tong.

ah..!

My eyes...!

Wu Tong felt a sudden white light before his eyes, and the next moment he couldn't help but scream. At the same time, he covered his eyes and curled up on the ground, seemingly blind and in great pain.

"Old Gu, you've finally made your move...!"

Having narrowly escaped death, Lu Feng's face lit up with a hint of joy, and he subconsciously looked down at the treasure basin he had hidden in his bosom.

"My strength is limited now. I can only buy some time. At most, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn will be enough for this thief's eyes to recover."

"Let's get out of here before those stinking rats outside realize what's happening!"

Gu Canyang spoke in a cold tone.

After all, he is now just a remnant spirit of the artifact, only able to reside inside the treasure basin, unable to unleash his full power from before his birth.

He can barely manage to deal with Wu Tong, who is at the third level of the Body Refinement Realm, but once they encounter a truly powerful enemy, even if he takes action, he won't be able to save Lu Feng!

"Kid, I understand...!"

Lu Feng glanced at his bloody severed arm on the ground, gritted his teeth, and the next moment turned and disappeared into a secret passage leading to the outside of the Blood Oath Hall.

As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years.

With his current abilities, he is powerless to take revenge, let alone contend with the entire Tomb Raiders Sect.

Besides, having already obtained his mother's belongings, Lu Feng naturally wouldn't linger here.

...

three days later

On the outskirts of the Beast Mountain Range, in a secluded cave

"The wound has finally stopped bleeding..."

A slender figure sat cross-legged, his face slightly pale, his eyes fixed on the empty sleeve on his left. It was none other than Lu Feng, who had escaped from the Tomb Raiders' Gate.

"Wu Tong, you scoundrel! I swear I will not rest until I avenge this!"

Lu Feng quickly bandaged the wound on his severed left arm, his eyes bloodshot, exuding murderous intent.

Although he was just an ordinary mortal, he had now lost an arm and was practically crippled.

However, his desire for revenge was not entirely hopeless.

He had also plundered Liu Dahu's corpse, including cultivation techniques and elixirs.

"A spirit-summoning incantation?"

Lu Feng slowly pulled out a tattered, gray manual from his pocket, his brows furrowed.

"Well, something's better than nothing..."

Although the Spirit Guiding Technique is just a common, third-rate cultivation method, even after practicing it, the effect of absorbing spiritual energy from heaven and earth is very limited.

But this was already the best "cultivation manual" in Lu Feng's possession.

"Guide the spirit into the body, and return to oneness!"

Lu Feng silently recited the cultivation incantation in his mind, and the next moment he formed a hand seal with one hand and began to slowly absorb the sparse spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

As wisps of spiritual energy from heaven and earth swept into his body, Lu Feng felt as if he were in a furnace, his entire body drenched in sweat, and he couldn't help but let out a low roar.

Click!

I don't know how much time passed, but I heard a sound like an eggshell breaking from deep within my dantian.

boom!

The next moment, Lu Feng's body trembled, and his aura suddenly surged, like a dragon emerging from the abyss.

"First level of body refining realm!"

Feeling the unfamiliar power within his body and the newly formed seed of Yuan energy deep within his dantian, Lu Feng was overjoyed.

The Yuanli Seed is the source of all a martial artist's power.

Although he is now only the weakest first-level Body Refinement Realm martial artist, he is by no means comparable to his former mortal body!

Even if Lu Feng knew no martial arts and had no divine weapons, he could still easily defeat five or six adult men with his bare hands. This is the power of a martial artist!

"Young Master Lu, don't be so happy yet. Someone's here, and more than one..."

Just as Lu Feng was feeling smug, he suddenly heard Gu Canyang's warning, which seemed to indicate that someone was watching the cave and that the visitor was up to no good.
