Chapter 538: Chapter 233: Chen Xuan Breaks Through to Grotto Heaven

The entire ancient city was dead silent.

There was nothing but the howling of a sinister wind.

It was as if not a single living soul remained.

After a short while, figures finally began to rush in from other directions.

Without exception, they all came from the depths of the darkness.

Their expressions changed the moment they entered the city.

"Where is the Venerable Divine Hall?"

"It’s gone? The Venerable Divine Hall is gone?"

"Holy shit, someone comprehended the Venerable Divine Hall!"

"How is that possible?"

These beings were all flabbergasted, finding it hard to believe.

The Venerable Divine Hall would only vanish if someone had successfully comprehended it.

There was no other possibility.

"Who was it? Who comprehended the Venerable Divine Hall?"

"There’s a powerful Fire Attribute aura here! A Fire Attribute expert was present!"

"Everyone here is dead. Someone slaughtered them all!"

"Is that the Blood God Son’s Blood God Armor?"

"The Blood God Armor was torn apart?"

The beings from the depths of the darkness were all shocked, their eyes wide.

The Blood God Son was a famous expert in the depths of the darkness, a disciple of the Blood Evil Elder.

The key was his age—he was exceptionally young.

He was not even three hundred years old!

A three-hundred-year-old at the Peak of Dharma, clad in the Blood God Armor—he had rampaged through the darkness, and every major power gave him face.

And yet a ruthless figure like him had his Blood God Armor shredded?

"Where did the Blood God Son go? Did he escape?"

"Something big has happened. Something really big!"

"Dammit, what I want to know is who the hell got the Venerable Divine Hall!"

The expressions of the many beings shifted, a storm raging in their hearts.

BOOM!

Just then, the night sky suddenly burst into splendor.

Several dazzling great suns streaked across the horizon, emitting incredibly terrifying fluctuations. They illuminated the entire city as if real suns were descending from the heavens.

The faces of the many beings changed in alarm.

"Seniors from the Cave Heaven Realm have arrived!"

"Fall back! Don’t get caught in the crossfire!"

In an instant, three scorching suns appeared high in the sky.

They burned fiercely, their light resplendent.

Purple, red, and silver.

Three completely different colors.

World-like auras emanated from within them—surging, vast, and mighty. The pressure from their presence alone was enough to make one gasp for breath.

The hearts of the many beings trembled as they recognized these three terrifying existences.

The purple one was the expert from the Purple Cloud Palace, Wang Xuanyi!

The red one was the expert from the Blood Refining Hall, the Blood Evil Elder.

The silver one was the expert from the Emperor Yan Tower, Di Xin!

All three were terrifying beings who dominated their own domains.

’The Venerable Divine Hall shattered the dark membrane... they really did follow it here in secret...’

"The Divine Hall has vanished," came the profound and esoteric voice from within the purple light.

From the red light, however, two cold, electric gazes suddenly shot out.

A hand reached out, grasping toward the ground below.

CLATTER!

The shattered pieces of the Blood God Armor on the ground suddenly shot into the sky. The countless fragments quickly reassembled in midair, but the restored armor was tattered and riddled with holes.

There were scorch marks from intense flames in many places.

"My disciple is dead."

The Blood Evil Elder’s voice drifted out, cold and indifferent.

"It’s not just your disciple who died. Everyone who came here before is dead!" Di Xin stated coldly from within the silver light.

The Blood Evil Elder raised a finger and pointed it at the Blood God Armor before him.

SZZT!

Light surged across the armor’s surface, and blurry images began to appear.

He was tracing the event back to its source.

Besides being a profound defensive treasure, this armor had another function: it could accurately record the appearance and techniques of an opponent when its host was in danger.

It was similar to a Recording Jade Pendant.

However, the images remained blurry, hissing with static, completely unable to form a clear figure.

Eventually, the Blood Evil Elder’s face darkened, and he stopped completely.

"The formation patterns inside the armor were destroyed. What a ruthless method!"

His gaze was cold as he swept it across the ancient city once more.

The other two figures weren’t idle either. They immediately spread their Spiritual Power in all directions, searching like a surging, turbulent sea.

But unfortunately, Chen Xuan and the others had moved with extreme speed when they left.

They didn’t leave a single clue behind.

Other than the faint wisps of heat lingering in the air, there was nothing.

But how many people in the world cultivated Fire Attribute Cultivation Techniques?

Who would ever suspect that people from the shallow darkness were responsible?

...

...

「At this very moment.」

Chen Xuan and his two companions were moving at their utmost speed, focused only on fleeing into the distance.

Feng Wuji repeatedly used the Bixi Wind, stirring up the darkness to conceal their trail.

In the blink of an eye, they had flown countless miles.

They barely stopped along the way.

Only when they were safely inside the City Lord’s Mansion of Qianling City did the three of them finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Amazing, Chen Xuan! You’re truly incredible!"

Feng Wuji’s face was filled with shock.

The Venerable Divine Hall had drifted in the depths of the darkness for so many years, stumping countless brilliant and talented individuals.

Myriad experts had been helpless before it.

And yet, Chen Xuan had somehow managed to comprehend it.

It felt like a dream just thinking about it.

"Chen Xuan, take out the Venerable Divine Hall and let us see it!" Chu Shanhe couldn’t help but say.

"Alright!"

Chen Xuan’s eyes gleamed. He raised his palm, and with a thought, a streak of light condensed in his palm, quickly forming the shape of a golden hall. Its aura was ancient, and its appearance was exquisite.

As he channeled his True Essence into it, the golden hall could indeed change at his will.

One moment it grew larger, the next it shrank.

Chen Xuan even felt that the more True Essence he poured in, the larger the hall could become.

"Alliance Leader, try feeling the weight of this hall."

Chen Xuan shrank the hall to the size of his palm and handed it directly to Chu Shanhe.
