Chapter 210 Temple Crisis

Shi Chen thought for three breaths before refusing and said, "I won't go into this hall. You guys go in and explore. If you have a Thunderbolt Pearl, you can trade it with me. The exchange value will definitely be higher than the Thunderbolt Pearl."

"Senior, is this a premonition..." Yu Xing asked with confusion in his eyes.

hum!hum!hum!

Before Yu Xinghai could finish his words, the temple began to shake and a strange noise came from the hole in the middle pillar.

Ah!

The four turned to look at the stone pillars in the temple and found a buzzing sound coming from the holes in the stone pillars. After a few breaths, the strange sound stopped and the temple returned to normal.

"Senior, this is a sign that a treasure is about to be born. You really don't want to go in and explore with us?" Li Hua's eyes were filled with inexplicable excitement, and greed was evident.

"No need to say more, just go quickly. If you don't go in, there may be people coming later. I hope you can find the treasure." After saying that, Shi Chen retreated three feet and came to the edge of the stone slab in front of the temple door.

"Thank you very much for the opportunity, senior. If there is a Thunderbolt Pearl in the temple, we will definitely get it and give it to you. I only hope that you can stop the monks behind us for a while in front of the temple door, so that the three of us can have more time to find the treasure." Li Hua said happily, with a hint of madness in his eyes.

Shi Chen didn't reply. He sat cross-legged on the ground, his spiritual sense sweeping out, leaving marks on all three people. He waved his hand, ignoring the three people from the Spirit Sword Sect.

Seeing that Shi Chen no longer paid any attention to him, Li Hua was the first to step out and walked quickly towards the stone pillar.

Soon, they disappeared into the cave of the temple's stone pillars. Shi Chen used his spiritual sense to sense them, but found that his spiritual mark was not sensed.

There is a teleportation array at the entrance of the stone pillar cave. I don’t know where I will be teleported to. There should be a spiritual consciousness shielding array there, so that I cannot obtain the imprint information.

There is no point in thinking too much, I can only continue to use my spiritual sense to explore the temple, hoping to discover something special about it.

hum!hum!hum!

Every quarter of an hour, strange noises came from the entrance of the stone pillars in the temple. Shi Chen stood still, patiently waiting outside the temple for the three people from the Lingjian Sect.

An hour later, two people suddenly appeared on the mountain peak more than ten miles behind Shi Chen. Their cultivation was only in the late stage of foundation building. They stood on the mountain peak and observed for a long time before leaving.

The range of the spiritual consciousness of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, who has not practiced special spiritual consciousness secrets, is only about ten miles. The temple is more than ten miles away from the mountain. They cannot detect Shi Chen with their spiritual consciousness, but they can see the temple with their naked eyes.

Lightning from the sky struck the top of the temple from time to time, and the entire temple was filled with arcs of electricity, like a light bulb glowing in the dark. Not to mention that it was only a dozen miles away, even if it was dozens of miles away, the monks could still see it with their eyesight.

The two monks who left were definitely not from the Spirit Sword Sect. They didn't have the sword symbol, the sect's emblem. Were they that mysterious group of monks? Or some other external force?

Things are getting a little subtle. The two people who left must be going to contact other companions. If their cultivation level is just foundation building, there is no need to worry. It doesn't matter if it is below the spirit transformation level. The only thing to worry about is attracting cultivators above the spirit transformation level. The spirit transformation cultivators can still deal with it, but the fusion cultivators can only run away.

If the three people from the Lingjian Sect don’t come out, should I leave this place first and wait outside the mountain?

After pondering for a moment, Shi Chen stood up and waved his hands, and the formation flags flew out in all directions. In ten breaths, he set up three fourth-order formations next to the temple, including concealment, illusion, and shielding.

Three quarters of an hour later, the two foundation-building cultivators who had left returned with seven people, one at the third level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, two at the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, and four at the late stage of the foundation-building Realm.

It took a quarter of an hour to get to the temple from the other side of the mountain. Shi Chen looked at the incarnation monk who had been standing against the thunder and lightning in the sky to protect the people behind him, but he himself was electrocuted and his hair was burnt and smelly, his face was red and black, and his Taoist robe was torn with several holes.

Veins bulged on his forehead, but his expression was unrecognizable, and his entire body emanated a chilling coldness.

"Grandfather!" The only red-shirted female cultivator in the crowd said in a pinched voice, "Don't be angry. It's all my fault that my cultivation is too low, causing you trouble."

The Divine Transformation cultivator wiped his face, returning to normal. He checked his robe, but the lightning had burned a few small holes through the edge of the robe. Due to his dignity, he could not change clothes in front of the younger generation. He snorted coldly and said to the cultivators behind him, "I have obtained so many resources to give you cultivation, but none of your cultivation progress has satisfied me. From now on, you must work hard on your cultivation."

"Yes! Elder." The seven people behind the red-shirted female cultivator clasped their fists and bowed.

The Redwood female cultivator hurried over to the Divine Transformation cultivator, took his hand, shook it, and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, we will definitely work hard on our cultivation in the future. If we can find something in this treasure hunt, it will definitely help us greatly improve our cultivation."

The Divine Transformation cultivator glared at her, then turned to look towards the temple with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

Shi Chen hid in the formation, holding his breath and observing the movements of the group. He discovered that this group of cultivators were not native to the Yuanling Continent. Their clothes were embroidered with different runes, but they were not the runes on the talismans, which made them seem ambiguous.

Cultivators on the Yuanling Continent rarely dress like this. Even those from talisman families would at most have rune images of their family emblem embroidered on their collars or cuffs.

The Divine Transformation cultivator swept out his consciousness, sensing the surroundings. After a moment, he asked with a puzzled look, "Lu Xu, when you two saw the temple, were there any other people there?"

"When we were on the top of the mountain, we saw a man sitting cross-legged in front of the temple." Lu Xu stepped forward and said.

"You guys go into the temple and investigate first." The Jindan cultivator turned around and pointed at the two Jindan cultivators behind him and gave orders.

"Yes! Elder." The seven people received the order and bowed.

The two Jindan cultivators standing in front looked at each other, then turned to look at the five foundation-building cultivators behind them.

Several Foundation Establishment cultivators looked at each other with uneasiness in their eyes. One of them, a cultivator who had reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment stage, said to Lu Xu with a sinister smile, "Since this place was discovered by Lu Xu and Lu Wei, you two should investigate first. You two will go ahead and explore, and the three of us will follow closely behind."

"Lu Yi is right. You two go ahead," the ninth-level Foundation Establishment cultivator beside Lu Yi also said with a smile, "Lu Zhen, Lu Yi, and I will follow closely behind."

Lu Zhen, who was standing on the other side, said in a somewhat tough tone: "We have Brother Xin and Brother Bao behind the three of us. Don't worry, it's absolutely safe."

Lu Xu and Lu Wei looked at each other. Anger was already surging in their hearts, but they suppressed it. Their faces were cold, and anger was rising in their eyes, but they could only obey orders.

Shi Chen sneered in his heart. From this short clip, he knew that in such a family, intrigue and mutual calculations were the norm.

Lu Xu and Lu Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and slowly walk towards the temple. Each step seemed extremely heavy, as if they were not standing on solid ground, but on a bottomless abyss.

As soon as I stepped into the temple gate, the temple shook slightly, and a buzzing sound was heard from the holes in the stone pillars in the temple.

A group of people stood there in a daze. After a few moments, the strange phenomenon in the temple was restored and everyone came back to their senses from the shock.

"Lu Xu," Lu Xin said in a deep voice, "Don't panic. Just be careful. Even if Lu Yi and the other three aren't any good, we still have Lu Bao and I behind us. We can definitely protect you two."

Lu Xu and Lu Wei looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and continued to walk in. Several foundation-building cultivators followed closely behind them, looking nervous.

At this moment, an arc of electricity suddenly flashed in the stone pillar cave in the temple, and three monks from the Lingjian Sect instantly appeared outside the stone pillar cave.

"Senior, we have obtained some treasures. Do you think we can trade some with you..." Li Hua thought Shi Chen was still outside the temple, and shouted to trade with him as soon as he came out. Halfway through his words, he found that there were nine more people in the temple.

Among the nine people, there was no sign of the senior from before. The three of them looked tense and secretly alert.

"Oh no, the situation has changed!" Li Hua said in a low voice, his eyes vigilantly scanning the nine people in front of him.

Liang Daoqi frowned and whispered to Yu Xingman, "Be careful and see the situation clearly first."

Yu Xingman nodded, holding the magic weapon tightly in his hand, ready to deal with possible danger at any time.

At this moment, the Divine Transformation cultivator looked at the three people who suddenly appeared. When he heard Li Hua mention the treasure, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He said happily: "Leave the treasure behind and let you live."

Liang Daoqi stepped forward and bowed, saying in a cold voice, "Senior, we are disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect, and we are searching for treasure here."

"Spirit Sword Sect?" The Divine Transformation cultivator snorted coldly, "I've never heard of it. Hand over the treasures you've obtained!"

Li Hua was furious, but thinking of the other party's strength, he suppressed his anger and said, "Senior, this treasure was obtained after going through many hardships. How can we hand it over so easily?"

The Divine Transformation cultivator's face darkened, and a powerful spiritual pressure was released. "You won't hand it over? Then don't even think about leaving alive!"

The three people from the Lingjian Sect felt the tremendous pressure brought by the Jindan cultivator, and their faces became extremely ugly.

The Divine Transformation cultivator said firmly, "I'll give you three breaths to think about it."

Li Hua and the other two looked at each other, feeling extremely anxious.

Yu Xingman gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Brother, how about we fight it out!"

Liang Daoqi shook his head and said, "Don't be reckless. Let's see if there is any room for maneuver."

Three breaths of time passed in a flash, and the Divine Transformation cultivator said coldly: "Time is up, what are your decisions?"

"Junior Brother Yu, Junior Brother Li and I will try to stop them later. You immediately flee to the mountain exit and ask for help from the sect!" Liang Daoqi said solemnly, staring at the Divine Transformation cultivator while transmitting a message to Yu Xingman.

"Do it!" the Divine Transformation cultivator shouted softly, and at the same time waved his hand, preparing to move forward.

"Wait!" Liang Daoqi shouted loudly, then stepped forward and tightly grasped the magic weapon in his hand. "The treasure is with me. Please make way and let Junior Brother Yu go first, otherwise you will never get the treasure."

Li Hua's brows furrowed slightly when he heard Liang Daoqi's shout, a flicker of discontent flashing across his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal. However, Shi Chen's consciousness clearly captured that moment of resentment.

"Make way," the Divine Transformation cultivator said with a frown, "Don't play tricks on me."

Watching Yu Xingman slowly walk out of the temple, soar into the air, and fly towards the mountain, Liang Daoqi looked troubled. Reluctantly, he took out three spiritual objects from his storage ring and threw them to the Divine Transformation cultivator.

Star Thunder Gold, Rootless Thunder Vine, Sealing Thunder Crystal.

"Just these three second-level spiritual objects? Are you kidding me?" The Divine Transformation cultivator glared at him, his hands on his hips in anger, and laughed, "Ha! Ha!"

"There are several spiritual objects in the temple. If you don't believe me, you can go in and explore for yourselves." Liang Daoqi said with his neck stiff and without flinching.

"Lu Xin! Lu Bao!" the Divine Transformation cultivator shouted angrily, "Go and capture that brat for me! The treasure must be with him."
