Chapter 143: The Box’s Secret

Chapter 143: The Box’s Secret

A seemingly harmless energy surged out of Yu Zhenghai’s palm and collided with the onslaught of palm prints!

Boom!

A violent shockwave rippled horizontally in the air as a result of the collision .

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The trees that had been uprooted in the surroundings were uniformly cut in half by the horizontal shockwave .

Strangely, the shockwave did not dissipate . It seemed to be powered by a peculiar energy!

Zhu Honggong’s expression was one of envy and awe . This attack was the combination of Yu Zhenghai’s, his eldest senior brother, Great Dark Heaven Memorial and the palm strike, the Great Dark Heavenly Palm!

The single palm strike repelled several of his enemies, and there was a recoil of Primal Qi .

Zhu Honggong could not get enough of this .

“Retreat!” Zhang Chunlai was greatly shocked as he ordered everyone to fall back . He instantly knew the middle-aged man was a peerless elite .

Yu Zhenghai looked up and said, “Too late . ” His voice traveled up into the air, seemingly carried by a force .

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The Brahman Sea realm cultivators could not even withstand a single hit . They dropped like flies immediately . On the other hand, the Divine Court realm cultivators had managed to rise higher in the sky, but their ends were just as tragic .

The only person left standing was the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator, Zhang Chunlai . He glared at Yu Zhenghai as he retreated . After a moment, he unleashed his ultimate skill again . “Hundred Tribulations Insight!”

Yu Zhenghai smiled faintly as he said, “I was waiting for your avatar . ” He waved his right arm, and the Jasper Saber spun and flew out!

Heaven-grade weapons were the Achilles’ heels of every avatar . It could easily break through the avatars’ defenses! A Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar was an ultimate move that expended much of the cultivator’s energy . If an avatar was destroyed, it was akin to dealing a huge blow to the cultivator!

“Eldest Senior Brother, he intends on fleeing with the Grand Technique!” Zhu Honggong cried out .

Zhang Chunlai and his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar moved 1,000 meters away in just a blink of an eye . In a few short seconds, he was already out of the Tiger Ridge Gang’s territory . He was about to sigh in relief when he saw Yu Zhenghai hovering in the air with his hands on his back, standing in the path of his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar .

With his black garments and chiseled face, Yu Zhenghai looked extremely mighty and majestic under the sun’s ray .

Zhang Chunlai heard a sound from above . He looked up .

It was the Jasper Saber wrapped in dense energy . It was spinning constantly, looking larger than a cartwheel . This was the technique, the Dark Heaven’s Starlight!

“You’re only a Five-leaf?” Yu Zhenghai questioned . In other words, he meant, how did a Five-leaf Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator only managed to run this far? Alas, this old man was far from being a worthy opponent! He could not find it in himself to respect such an opponent . Zhang Chunlai was not even at the level of his four great protectors .

“You… you…” Zhang Chunlai stammered as he tried to unleash his Grand Technique again .

Yu Zhenghai rested his hands on his back as he said, “If this is all the Righteous Sect is capable of, you’re being overly arrogant to say you’ll flatten my Eighth Junior Brother’s Tiger Ridge . ”

“The Evil Sky Pavilion’s… first disciple?!”

At this moment, the Dark Heaven’s Starlight landed on the Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar .

Boom!

The avatar seemed as soft as tofu . It was instantly destroyed by the Jasper Saber!

Energy roiled violently in the air, creating a flurry of hurricanes . It blew through the forests, uprooting trees and killing birds and wild beasts .

Yu Zhenghai was the only one who was completely unaffected . He looked calmly at the rampaging energies .

Zhang Chunlai despaired . ‘Can I escape? Using the Grand Technique will only expedite my doom!’ He raised his palms skyward and all his Primal Qi surged out! At this point, he had almost completely depleted his power .

Countless palm prints pushed against the spinning heaven-grade weapon . Unfortunately, the differences between their realms were too great . Moreover, the Jasper Saber was a gem even among heaven-grade weapons .

Bam!

When the Jasper Saber slashed at Zhang Chunlai, Yu Zhenghai had already turned away . He made his way back to the Tiger Ridge . The Jasper Saber returned to its owner after it completed its task .

In just a blink of an eye, the entire place fell silent . The roiling energy had calmed down as well .

The members of the Tiger Ridge Gang were completely dumbstruck . All it took was a palm strike and a blade strike, and it was over? They were rooted to their spots in shock as they surveyed the uprooted trees and the chaotic landscape . If they did not witness this with their own eyes, they would not believe this was done by the Evil Sky Pavilion’s first disciple . They had followed Zhu Honggong because of his affiliation with the Evil Sky Pavilion . His performance had already exceeded their expectations . Who knew the Evil Sky Pavilion’s first disciple was this powerful? Against the Five-leaf cultivation base elite, he had ended the battle so decisively and quickly .

Yu Zhenghai returned to Tiger Ridge and landed before Zhu Honggong . He raised a hand and patted Zhu Honggong’s shoulder . “You’re lucky he was only a Five-leaf cultivator… If he had another leaf, you would’ve been in deep trouble earlier . ”

Zhu Honggong was still in a daze . He wore a blank expression on his face . When Yu Zhenghai patted his shoulder, he gulped when he regained his senses .

“E-eldest… Eldest Senior Brother!” Zhu Honggong suddenly seemed a lot more obedient as he trailed after Yu Zhenghai . “You’ve become much more powerful after coming out from seclusion!”

“I was using a sledgehammer on a nut . It’s nothing worth mentioning,” Yu Zhenghai said .

“It’s worth mentioning! I’ve never seen anything like your Great Dark Heavenly Palm, Eldest Senior Brother! It was too f*cking awesome! The admiration I have for you is as endless as the roaring river, and as…”

“That’s enough . ” Yu Zhenghai went into the stronghold and sat down . “You’ve been working with Old Seventh for a long time . Who did you learn all this flattery from?”

Zhu Honggong laughed sheepishly before he said, “Thank you for lending a hand, Eldest Senior Brother! If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been in dire straits today . ”

Yu Zhenghai did not reply to him . Instead, he asked, “Is Old Seventh responsible for your Octagon Formation?”

“Uh… You have keen eyes, Eldest Senior Brother . I truly can’t keep anything from you . ”

“Did Old Seventh give you the zen tunic as well?” Yu Zhenghai asked .

Zhu Honggong immediately slapped his chest and said, “Eldest Senior Brother… Please! This is the only treasure I have!”

Yu Zhenghai sighed and shook his head .

Zhu Honggong chuckled and said, “Eldest Senior Brother, you’re so awesome, there’s no way you’ll be interested in this zen tunic . Your protective energy alone is far superior compared to my tunic!” As he spoke, his voice weakened before he finally said, “Yes, it was Seventh Senior Brother who obtained it from the Heaven Choice Temple . ”

Yu Zhenghai said, “Don’t let Old Seventh’s intentions go to waste . If it weren’t for this zen tunic, you would’ve been long dead . ”

“You’re right, Eldest Senior Brother!”

“The Righteous Sect has lost its soldiers and general . Knowing Zhang Yuanshan, I don’t think he’ll come here anytime soon,” Yu Zhenghai said slowly, “However, you must be on your guard . ”

“Yes, Eldest Senior Brother,” Zhu Honggong replied obediently .

Yu Zhenghai glanced at the box next to him and asked, “Did Fourth Junior Brother mention when he’ll be coming for the box?”

Zhu Honggong counted his fingers and said, “He’ll come in three days . ”

“In that case, I’ll stay for three days . ”

“You can stay here as long as you like, Eldest Senior Brother!” Zhu Honggong said ingratiatingly .

Yu Zhenghai laughed heartily as he shook his head and said, “Talking to you is boring me to no end . How I wish Old Seventh was here . ” After he spoke, he rose to his feet and waved his arm . The mysterious box floated to him immediately . Soon after, his Jasper Saber appeared as well .

An envious expression appeared on Zhu Honggong’s face when he saw the Jasper Saber . He really wished there was a heaven-grade weapon in the mysterious box . “Are you going to unlock the box, Eldest Senior Brother?”

The Jasper Saber moved into the groove .

Click!

A crisp sound rang in the air .

The Jasper Saber had fulfilled its purpose as one of the keys .

Soon after, the Jasper Saber was ejected, and it vanished .

“My dear master, just how many treasures do you have?”
