Chapter 487: Chapter 476 The Divine Temple Collapsed
When the big shots gradually left, and the commotion caused by a single horse seemed to have also calmed down, who could have imagined that the factor enticing the appearance of a god was merely a horse momentarily parted from its master?
At this moment, Xu Xifeng and others were still lurking outside the Divine Temple, ready and waiting for the people inside to come out.
However...
"So much time has passed; why haven’t they come out yet? Could there be some danger inside?"
Xu Xifeng grew restless and suggested, "Why don’t we go in and see what’s happening?"
"Tribal Chief, don’t rush. This underground palace only has one entrance and exit. They surely wouldn’t just leave by opening the door themselves,"
Xu Xifeng’s lackey said confidently.
A good hunter not only needs the ability to set traps but more importantly, possesses patience far exceeding that of the average person.
"That makes sense."
Xu Xifeng held back, and suddenly, the ground shook.
"What’s going on? Is the earth dragon turning over?"
"No, it must be them fighting. The battle is so fierce; a victor will be decided very soon."
Xu Xifeng steadied himself against a nearby stone and agreed with his subordinate’s statement. Having roamed around, thanks to his team of advisors, Xu Xifeng had been able to reach his current position. Otherwise, he would have starved to death in the Central Plains after leaving the Southern Border.
In the Central Plains where people’s hearts are complicated, without a wise person, it would be difficult to advance even an inch.
However, this time the "wise man’s" prediction seemed slightly off.
The trembling of the earth grew more intense, and soon, the walls of the Underground Palace collapsed with a roar, burying them instantly.
Not only did the Underground Palace collapse, but the Temple of Thousand Hands and Eyes also trembled violently in the strong quake. The temple’s core defensive ability was those eyes, which shielded it from fire, flood, earthquakes, landslides, and even unauthorised intrusions.
But Lin Yun had already broken the Thousand Eyes.
The massive spider stone statue split entirely, and Qian Qian felt as though she herself had also split.
This was no ordinary divine temple; it was a hidden Divine Temple that Qian Qian had constructed with great effort and Divine Power. After that catastrophe, she could still contact the people of this world through this temple, secretly gathering followers.
It was like her secret base, enduring trials and hardships underground all this time. Yet today, because Lin Yun came by, it was gone in an instant.
The most infuriating part was that this earthquake wasn’t caused by human intervention.
The sun, moon, and stars never stop turning, and internal turmoil follows a pattern too.
The Cultivation World also experienced various geological disasters, such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Among these, earthquakes could be man-made. Upon reaching a certain level in cultivation, one could produce small-scale earthquakes.
At the stage of Divine Spirits, even large-scale earthquakes could happen in an instant.
But this time, Qian Qian was sure that this was merely a regular earthquake, without any intervention from Divine Power.
And that’s what was truly terrifying.
She had already rushed Lin Yun away as quickly as she could, but still couldn’t save her own Divine Temple.
For a short time, she wouldn’t even be able to descend.
"This disaster star, don’t let me see him again!"
Qian Qian thought of Lin Yun, her teeth itching with annoyance, yet she was helpless.
One should best not touch things or people entangled with Su’e.
They might all be things of great consequences.
"Eh, but now it seems I’m the only one aware of this. Couldn’t I use him to cause trouble for others?"
The mind of the God of Thousand Hands and Eyes was extremely nimble, and the schemes of a divine spirit were far more profound than those of mortals.
At this moment, Lin Yun was still unaware that he had been made into a predestined pawn simply by casually mentioning Su’e’s name, and he was currently busy engaging with three women in a dramatic scene.
Here’s what happened: after Lin Yu left with Lin Yun, they didn’t go far but stopped nearby to wait for Dongfang Hongyue’s arrival.
She and Dongfang Hongyue had exchanged glances, which Dongfang Hongyue should understand.
But before Dongfang Hongyue arrived, Lin Yu could take this opportunity to get close to Lin Yun, and if Dongfang Hongyue saw them, it would be even better.
Previously, Lin Yu was angry with Lin Yun, but now, all she could think about was the poison in Lin Yun’s body, and considering that she wouldn’t live for many days if she gave her heart to Lin Yun, why should she care about those mundane opinions and false modesty?
After shedding her sense of shame, Lin Yu pulled Lin Yun in for a kiss.
Lin Yun had intended to talk to Lin Yu, but he never expected her to take the initiative so boldly; while his mind was somewhat shocked, his body instinctively responded and played along.
After a deep kiss, Lin Yu suddenly pushed Lin Yun away a little.
"Why are you so skilled!"
Lin Yun was now able to kiss her while quietly untying her clothes and even activating the spell array of her protective Immortal Garment. Although Lin Yu had cast aside her shame and wanted to be intimate with Lin Yun, wishing to express her feelings unrestrainedly, in the wilderness, she had only intended to kiss Lin Yun.
To cross that line, they would need at least a little cottage, or a cave could suffice if nothing else was available.
Out here in the open, it seemed somewhat inappropriate.
Lin Yun could not answer her question about his proficiency.
He had been single-mindedly studying the Method of Garment Breaking previously, with little success, until he started Artifact Refining himself and finally made some progress.
When looking at all Immortal Garments or magical treasures, they were essentially a fusion of materials and spell arrays.
The material is just the foundation, but the function still relies on the spell array.
Good materials can enhance the power of the spell array, and a good spell array can better manifest the effectiveness of the materials.
So, to break the garment, one must first break the array.
Lin Yun then devised this method of using spiritual power to breach the Immortal Garment.
His ability to break arrays was quite good, but this was the first time he was trying it on Lin Yu, and the effect was not bad.
But just as he was getting started, Lin Yu pushed him away.
What a pity!
"Yu’er."
Lin Yun felt that at this moment, any answer would be wrong, and that another kiss would make everything right.
Lin Yu played along half-heartedly, but just as Lin Yun pulled her into his embrace, Dongfang Hongyue arrived.
She had been anxious the whole time, so it was only natural for her to arrive so quickly.
Seeing Lin Yun and Lin Yu being intimate, especially outdoors, made Dongfang Hongyue’s heart sour.
Originally, she was the first, but now others were catching up!
But now was not the time for jealousy; her feelings of resentment never settled until she saw Lin Yun, and with no one else around, she could reveal her concern for him.
She threw herself into Lin Yun’s arms but did not push Lin Yu away; instead, she took Lin Yun’s hand, wanting to check the condition of his poisoning.
She always remembered the way Lin Yun gritted his teeth in pain, and it was heart-wrenching to think about.
However, when she examined Lin Yun’s hand, all she saw was smooth skin.
"???"
Where did all those red eyes go?
