C447 The 3000-meter Altar
"We need to be more careful." Chu Kuangsheng said to himself with lingering fear.
That kind of illusionary realm was really too frightening. Even with his tough disposition, he was almost lost within it.
However, some things had actually happened before. They were like engravings that were carved deep within his memories.
Chu Kuangsheng clenched his hands tightly. The image of the tall mountain and the ruthless sword that tore Liehtian apart flashed across his mind from time to time.
"Just wait and see. One day, even if it is in the Nine Heavens above, I will personally resolve the grudge that has lasted for a hundred years."
A low murmur sounded, carrying a deep-rooted hatred.
Hu!
He took a deep breath and suppressed the surging waves in his heart. Chu Kuangsheng's pitch-black pupils once again returned to normal.
"I wonder where the real treasure is?" He muttered to himself, then lifted his foot and walked into the distance.
...
On the long desolate plains, a thin figure walked within. Wave after wave of faintly discernible Mental Energy enveloped his entire body, blocking the strange energy that could create an illusion outside.
After half a day, the wasteland in front of them finally showed signs of coming to an end. A tall altar stood in the middle of it.
The altar was entirely cast from a dark yellow boulder. A vast and ancient aura spread out from within. It was thousands of feet tall, as if it was holding up the sky. It looked extremely visually impactful.
Around the altar, dazzling ancient lines were carved. These lines formed a connection with each other, as if they had formed an extremely profound formation.
"What a grand altar." Chu Kuangsheng raised his head and looked at it. His expression was filled with shock.
This was the first time he had seen such a huge altar in his life.
"Those guys are here as well." Chu Kuangsheng's eyes focused. He saw many familiar figures at the side of the altar.
"It seems like I'm not the only one who encountered the illusion realm. The people of the three major powers have also suffered heavy losses." He thought to himself.
At this moment, other than Qiling, Qian Feng, and the top experts of the Martial Saint realm, there were only a few Round Heaven Stage warriors left in the Qian Li Sect and the Heaven Chess Pavilion.
"This little bastard actually didn't die." The Martial Saint threw his cold gaze over, his eyes filled with ice-cold killing intent.
Regarding this, Chu Kuangsheng merely smiled faintly and walked over.
When he got closer, he discovered that there was a stone staircase leading to the top of the altar on one side of the altar.
"Ke ke! Little brother's ability is truly shocking." Qian Feng looked at him with a surprised expression.
If he had encountered that illusory realm alone and no one had woken him up, it would have been very difficult for him to escape from it.
However, this seemingly incomparably young junior was able to safely reach this place.
"I was merely lucky!" Chu Kuangsheng replied faintly. He did not have any intention of getting close to him.
However, his attitude was calm. The Pavilion Master from the Heaven Chess Pavilion walked over with a smile.
"Young Master, how about we join hands later?" Qiling's charming eyes landed on him. Her expression was filled with undisguised temptation.
Chu Kuangsheng's face twitched. This seemingly dignified and noble woman, why was she so horny the moment she saw him?
"Not interested!" He said in a cold tone.
In this world, strong opponents were not scary, but this kind of "gentle village" was the easiest to make people fall for it. Therefore, towards Qiling's intentional intimacy, he would only respond coldly.
However, Qiling did not care about his indifference. She stood by his side with a smile, looking coquettish as if she could take whatever she wanted.
"What do we do now?" The Martial Saint glanced at Qiling and scolded her in his heart.
Hearing this, Qian Feng revealed a pondering expression. They had walked for such a long time, other than this altar in front of them, they had never seen anything else.
"If there is a treasure in this cave, then it can only be here."
He raised his head to look at the top of the altar and said, "Now, only by going up and looking can we determine where the treasure is hidden?"
Hearing this, everyone nodded their heads. This cave that was left behind from the ancient times was truly too strange, to the extent that they were unable to make heads or tails of it.
"Let's go!"
Seeing this, Qian Feng led a few of his subordinates and climbed up the stone staircase of the altar.
Behind him, the Martial Saint followed with a gloomy expression.
"Young Master, let's go too!" Qiling extended her jade-like hand and was about to pull Chu Kuangsheng towards the altar.
Chu Kuangsheng avoided her without leaving a trace and said faintly, "Go Pavilion Master first."
Hearing this, Qiling gave him a charming look. She twisted her slender willow branch like waist and walked up the stone stairs.
Chu Kuangsheng raised his head and looked at the top of the altar. His expression flickered slightly. He did not know why, but he had a faint premonition in his heart.
"What's so strange about this altar?"
With these doubts, he carefully climbed up the stone staircase and arrived at the top of the altar.
"This is?"
The moment he reached the top of the altar, Chu Kuangsheng was attracted by a pitch-black cave.
This cave was located at the center of the altar, and it extended down to an unknown place.
"Why is there nothing here?" The Martial Saint said with an ugly expression.
Could it be that this cave that had been passed down from the ancient era was just an empty shelf?
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Chu Kuangsheng's eyes sparkled. At this moment, beams of light suddenly shot out from the black hole, converging in the sky.
This unusual change immediately caused everyone's expression to become tense. They circulated the energy in their bodies to deal with the danger that could happen at any time.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Under everyone's nervous gazes, spiritual light continuously shot out. In just a few breaths' time, an old man's figure had actually condensed in the sky.
Seeing this scene, everyone was greatly shocked. The vigilance in their eyes was extremely strong.
"Who are you?" Qian Feng shouted.
His voice echoed in the sky above the altar, and no one responded for a long time.
"Hehe!"
After a long time, an aged laugh rang out. It carried with it an endless sense of vicissitude, as if it had come from ancient times.2
"Finally, someone has arrived." The illusory old man looked at the crowd below and smiled gently.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts when they were stared at by his muddy eyes. All of their secrets seemed to have been seen through by the old man.
"It's actually..."
The old man's gaze finally stopped on Chu Kuangsheng. A trace of shock flashed across his eyes.
A Realm Tower that was rarely seen in a thousand years had actually appeared on this kid's body.
Chu Kuangsheng's expression was vigilant. He quietly took a few steps back, and the energy within his body was completely mobilized.
With his eyesight, this old man's cultivation base was at least at the Yin Yang Stage when he was alive. Even if he died now, it would still be enough to threaten his life.
However, just as the vigilance in his heart reached its peak, the old man withdrew his gaze thoughtfully. His eyes swept across the others, and his aged voice rang out.
"If any of you can help me kill the Ghost underneath the altar, I will hand over my inheritance to him."
