Chapter 1923: Chapter 1924: Nine Layers Limit
"Oh? How so?"
Ling Feng raised his gaze to the top of the mountain. Even with his eye power, he could only vaguely see a blurred black shadow.
That shadow was probably the so-called Shenxiao Hall.
The sleazy man with yellow teeth chuckled and continued, "Rumor has it that Shenxiao Hall has nine layers of limits. Every time one breaks through a limit, it can weaken a layer of realm barriers. So, when martial artists reach a bottleneck, they will come here to test Shenxiao Hall and break through the limits. If they’re lucky, they might weaken three to five layers, which greatly increases their chances of breaking through!"
"Oh?" Ling Feng smirked, "Are there not nine limits? If one gets through the ninth limit, isn’t there only one left of the realm barriers?"
"That’s what they say, but breaking through the nine layers of limits is easier said than done. Even breaking through five layers already marks a genius among geniuses."
The sleazy man with yellow teeth chuckled, "Does the young boss have any other questions? Just speak freely!"
Ling Feng thought for a moment, then continued to ask, "Do you know if Seventh Young Master Xiao Juanyun from the Xiao family is still in the Shenxiao Hall?"
"Someone from the Xiao family!" The yellow-toothed man twitched his eyelid and looked at Ling Feng with some caution, "I say, young boss, you’re not enemies with that young master from the Xiao family, are you?"
"No."
Ling Feng shook his head. The deterrent power of the nine major families of Du Yue Heaven Palace was indeed significant!
"That’s good." The yellow-toothed man extended his palm, smiling, "The usual rule, money first, information afterward!"
Ling Feng casually tossed out a handful of Elemental Crystals, "Speak!"
"Hehehe!"
The yellow-toothed man collected the Elemental Crystals and then smiled as he said, "Seventh Young Master Xiao from the Xiao family is indeed still in Shenxiao Hall, and he has already broken through to the Fifth Level. However, this information is three days old, and it seems he’s still attempting to break through the Sixth Level now."
"Three days?"
Ling Feng was stunned. Does breaking through limits require a long time?
"Yes, Seventh Young Master Xiao arrived at Divine Sky Mountain half a month ago and broke through five levels in half a month’s time. That’s already very impressive!"
The yellow-toothed man grinned, "This piece of news is on the house!"
Ling Feng rolled his eyes, too lazy to continue dealing with this guy, and then stepped forward, ready to head to Shenxiao Hall.
"Young boss, take care!"
Having collected dozens of upper-grade Elemental Crystals, the yellow-toothed man left contentedly, muttering to himself, "The girls from Chunxiang House, Master Huang is going to take on ten tonight, hahaha!"
"Damn it!"
Quite a few small vendors around witnessed this scene and turned green with envy.
To earn dozens of upper-grade Elemental Crystals for casually answering a few questions — what a thrill!
No way, it’s time for a career change!
...
Stepping forward, Ling Feng formally entered Divine Sky Mountain and suddenly felt the atmosphere around him change, an indescribable odd feeling as if some mystical force from the Great Dao was influencing him.
Elemental Power and Divine Sense were somewhat suppressed.
A staircase lay ahead; Ling Feng ascended step by step.
The day was gradually drawing to a close.
After an unknown duration, Ling Feng reached the summit, where a great hall stood ahead.
This hall was evidently the so-called Shenxiao Hall mentioned by many.
It was a very peculiar palace, sometimes near, sometimes far, suddenly high, suddenly low, seemingly floating in the air yet settling on the mountain peak, giving a sense of ambiguity between reality and illusion.
It apparently stood right before one, yet was utterly unpredictable.
"I wonder, this time, how many layers I’ll be able to break through!"
A middle-aged swordsman appearing to be in his forties or fifties, with cultivation as an Extreme Third Stage Emperor, squinted and murmured to himself.
Generally speaking, those seeking breakthrough opportunities at Shenxiao Hall are martial artists on the verge of a great realm breakthrough.
After all, a martial artist has only three opportunities in their life to enter Shenxiao Hall to attempt limit-breaking. Sometimes, even if they break the limits, they may not successfully break through the realm, but this chance would be wasted.
"Hehe, you? Breaking through three levels would be quite something; five levels may be a pipe dream, let alone anything higher!"
An individual next to him laughed mockingly.
"That’s not necessarily true. Breaking limits is unpredictable. Should luck explode and my fortune skyrocket, I might just burst through the Nine Layers Limit and show you a breakthrough to Great Emperor!"
The middle-aged swordsman snorted softly, then strode into the great hall. His figure flickered and vanished.
Ling Feng touched his nose, growing increasingly curious about Shenxiao Hall.
Since Xiao Juanyun is also within the Shenxiao Hall, he shouldn’t waste any time either.
With this thought, Ling Feng walked toward Shenxiao Hall.
This Shenxiao Hall seemed to be a domain filled with various attribute rules, possessing unique characteristics.
