Chapter 224 - Chapter 224: Hidden Dragon Cave

"Patriarch Xiao, have you thought about the relocation I mentioned earlier?"

Han Feng came to Xiao Zhan's side and asked.

"Mr. Han, I have thought it through. I am willing to relocate with my clansmen."

Xiao Zhan was silent for a few seconds before answering.

In fact, he had planned it originally, but it was not until he saw Wu Ying attacking Xiao Yan just now that Xiao Zhan finally made up his mind.

Han Feng nodded.

"Okay, time is pressing. Pack up in the Imperial Capital today, return to Wu Tan City tomorrow, and proceed with the relocation."

"So urgent?"

Xiao Zhan was stunned.

"Yes, I got new clues. The Hall of Souls has locked onto the Xiao family in the Jia Ma Empire. The black-robed person just now was the executor of this mission."

Han Feng said seriously: "So, this matter allows no delay."

Xiao Zhan was shocked. His guess was correct. That black-robed person was indeed from the Hall of Souls.

"I understand. After I go back, I will notify all clansmen immediately and strive to complete the relocation within a week."

"Mm."

Seeing that Xiao Zhan realized the seriousness of the matter, Han Feng nodded.

The group took the treasure ship back to the Imperial Capital. This time, no one needed to cover up.

The Xiao family disciples walked into the Jia Ma Sacred City with their heads held high, extremely proud in their hearts.

Young Master Xiao Yan really saved face for the Xiao family this time.

Crushing the Imperial Princess and the Disciple of the Pill King with alchemy skills at the Alchemist Conference, easily defeating the Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect at the Three-Year Agreement, and beating up the Disciple of the Pill King.

In the entire Jia Ma Empire, there is probably no outstanding young man like Young Master Xiao Yan, right?

As the saying goes, when a person attains the Dao, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

The Xiao family disciples have begun to fantasize about how glorious they will be in the Jia Ma Empire in the future.

However, what they didn't know was that their patriarch had begun to prepare to relocate the entire Xiao family to another strange land.

A land that makes people pale at the mention.

Black-Corner Region!

Mittel Family. After learning the news that Han Feng and others would leave tomorrow, Ai Lin also prepared to set off.

"This is also good. You go to the Black-Corner Region with the Xiao family, and you can take care of each other in the future."

Ai Lin nodded gently.

The Third Young Master of the Xiao family is Han Feng's Junior Brother. Just this point represents that the future of the Xiao family is destined to be extraordinary. Although the Mittel family looks strong now, it actually doesn't have a very deep connection with Han Feng.

Relying only on some past friendship with Han Feng won't go far.

So Ai Lin knew very well that if she wanted to keep up with Han Feng's pace, she had to use her own way.

Absolutely cannot stop following.

Otherwise, one day, Han Feng will forget her.

Behind Ai Lin, a girl who looked more tender stepped forward.

"Mr. Han."

"It's you."

Ya Fei bowed respectfully to Han Feng.

"I plan to take Ya Fei to the Black-Corner Region too. What do you think, Mr. Han?"

Ai Lin said.

"You two have to be careful when walking in the Black-Corner Region."

Han Feng laughed.

"Although the Black-Corner Region is much more disciplined now, the atmosphere has been inherited for a long time. To protect oneself, one still has to rely on strength."

Ya Fei lowered her head slightly.

She knew her cultivation talent was not good.

But even so, she still didn't want to give up this opportunity.

If she chose to stay in the Imperial Capital, she would certainly go very smoothly.

But in this way, her future life would be like a pool of stagnant water, without any major waves.

Han Feng saw a trace of ambition in the girl's lowered eyes.

He nodded.

"No wonder you value her."

"The little girl still has some courage."

Han Feng said to Ai Lin.

Ai Lin said helplessly: "I would rather her future be smoother. Following me to the Black-Corner Region, she is afraid to suffer more."

"It seems you are very worried about my territory?"

Han Feng teased.

"I'm just telling the truth. Mr. Han, I have done sufficient research."

Ai Lin responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Now in the entire Mittel family, probably only she dared to joke with Han Feng.

"Alright, I'm indeed not a qualified ruler."

Han Feng knew this well.

Those lords in the Black-Corner Region would fear Han Feng, but it didn't mean they would fear others.

For Han Feng, the Black-Corner Region was indeed very safe, but that was based on his powerful strength.

"But I also hope that one day, the Black-Corner Region can become peaceful, stable, and auspicious."

Han Feng said so.

"That day will come."

Ai Lin said seriously.

——————————

Early the next morning.

Everyone packed up and prepared to leave the Imperial Capital.

In the past few days in the Mittel family, the Xiao family disciples enjoyed quite good treatment. Now leaving, they felt a little reluctant for a while.

Seeing the overly relaxed and comfortable expressions on the faces of the clansmen, Xiao Zhan became more certain in his heart that they had to move.

If they continued to stay in the Jia Ma Empire, even without considering the risk of the Hall of Souls coming to their door, just this comfortable mentality of the clansmen was undesirable.

The Xiao family still needs more experience. Now is far from the time to stop.

Han Feng stood in front of everyone, leading everyone like a backbone.

Just at this time, the Nether Poison Fire in his body suddenly beat.

Han Feng's face changed, and he immediately sank his mind and triggered the Nether Poison Fire in his body.

"Something happened to Xian'er!"

Han Feng clenched his fists.

"Teacher, you will handle the following matters. I have to leave for a while."

Seeing Han Feng looking nervous, Yao Chen asked: "What happened?"

"It's Xian'er. She just lost contact with my induction."

Hearing this, Yao Chen also frowned tightly.

Lin Xian'er is Han Feng's only disciple and his only grand-disciple now.

"Then go quickly! Just leave it to me here."

"If the problem is very tricky, contact me immediately!"

Han Feng hesitated no more, immediately activated the Void God Stele, and disappeared from everyone's sight in a flash.

Eastern Xuan Continent.

Hidden Dragon Cave.

This is a secret realm under the management of the Eastern Xuan Empire.

It opens once every ten years.

Generally, only those recommended by the Imperial Family and the inheritors of the Daoist Sect are eligible to participate.

It is said that the secret of the ancient Azure Dragon is hidden inside.

As the auspicious divine beast of the Eastern Xuan Empire, the status of the Azure Dragon is supreme.

Precisely because of this, even though the risk factor in the Hidden Dragon Cave is high, people who want to enter every year are still endless.

The quota of the Daoist Sect has nothing to do with them, so the recommendation qualification of the empire is quite important.

Outside the Hidden Dragon Cave, the Emperor of the Eastern Xuan Empire looked at the closed dragon gate and said in a deep tone: "I don't know how many people can come out this time."

The leader of the Daoist Sect stood with his hands behind his back. Several sword pills suspended behind him, exuding a strong Dao charm.

"I heard that the Eldest Princess recommended a cultivator with superb poison skills this year?"

The Eastern Xuan Emperor nodded slightly.

"A twenty-year-old Dou Emperor. Both talent and brilliance are first-class."

The leader of the Daoist Sect smiled gently, seemingly regretting:

"Unfortunately, no matter how good the talent is, didn't she fall into your trap?"

The Eastern Xuan Emperor narrowed his eyes.

"Dao Ling, some words are better not spoken randomly."

Dao Ling looked mocking but shut his mouth.

This old dog Qin Heng has extraordinary strength; there is no need to bicker with him.

Suddenly, a hole was torn in the sky, and Han Feng flew out from it.

"Who?!"

Qin Heng and Dao Ling turned around abruptly, looking at the man who suddenly appeared in the sky.

Han Feng looked around and frowned slightly without seeing Lin Xian'er.

The teleportation of the Void God Stele was actually interrupted.

Logically speaking, he should have been teleported directly to Lin Xian'er, but now he was isolated outside that secret realm.

"Where is this place?"

Han Feng looked at Qin Heng and Dao Ling.

These two were the strongest cultivators present and must be clear about what happened here.

"Who are you?"

Qin Heng looked at Han Feng vigilantly.

Suddenly descending into the Hidden Dragon Cave strictly guarded by imperial soldiers, no one outside noticed.

How did he do it?

"I don't have much patience now. You'd better answer me honestly."

Han Feng narrowed his eyes.

"Hmph, arrogant!"

Qin Heng opened his big hand, and a cyan Dou Qi condensed into a dragon claw, slapping towards Han Feng.

Han Feng took a step directly, and silver lightning bolts descended from the sky, directly shattering the dragon claw.

At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and lightning surrounded Han Feng's back.

"I have no time to play with you. Next sentence, if you don't answer, don't blame me."

"Speak!"

Qin Heng swallowed his saliva.

He is a six-star Dou Venerate, considered a top expert in the Eastern Xuan Continent. Who exactly is the other party, actually shattering his dragon claw so easily?

"Senior, this place is the Hidden Dragon Cave."

Qin Heng answered.

"Did someone go in just now?"

Han Feng looked at the dragon-shaped cave not far away.

Qin Heng nodded.

"Today is the day the Hidden Dragon Cave opens. Those participating in this secret realm have all gone in just now."

Getting the desired answer, Han Feng shifted his gaze and focused on the Hidden Dragon Cave.

Suddenly, he asked: "Have you seen a woman who is good at using poison skills?"

Qin Heng's heart skipped a beat.

He said without changing his expression: "Seen, a girl with purple long hair."

Han Feng's gaze, which had originally shifted away, re-condensed on Qin Heng.

"You know her?"

Qin Heng nodded.

"My eldest daughter recommended her to participate in this secret realm. I know about her. She is a girl with very good talent."

Colorless flames rose in Han Feng's eyes. He crossed space in one step and appeared in front of Qin Heng.

"What are you nervous about?"

Qin Heng forced himself to be calm and said:

"Learning that she is related to Senior, I was a little surprised for a moment."

Han Feng's eyes grew cold.

"You want to harm her?"

Qin Heng's pupils shrank suddenly.

The next second, a palm flashing with golden light came into view.

Boom!

The Emperor of the Eastern Xuan Empire was slapped heavily to the ground with one blow.

Qin Heng felt as if his whole body had been crushed by a big mountain, and every inch of muscle was torn.

Consciousness was sinking constantly.

A palm flashing with white brilliance covered his head, and the information in his soul was slowly read.

Boom!

Suddenly, a layer of terrifying killing intent rippled around Han Feng's body.

He stood up slowly, scanning the audience with cold eyes.

Dao Ling beside him trembled involuntarily.

As the dignified leader of the Daoist Sect, this was the first time he encountered an opponent who made him afraid.

"Sen..."

Boom!

Before the words fell, Dao Ling was knocked flying fiercely by a golden light.

He forcibly swallowed a mouthful of blood, daring not to stay, and fled quickly into the distance.

Han Feng didn't care about the others present. Just now, he had learned the whole story from the memory of the Eastern Xuan Emperor.

In a hunt, Lin Xian'er became attached to the Imperial Eldest Princess, then came all the way to the Eastern Xuan Empire, preparing to participate in the once-in-a-decade Hidden Dragon Cave secret realm.

Due to Lin Xian'er's powerful aptitude, she soon attracted the attention of the Imperial Family.

In the Eastern Xuan Empire, the status of the Imperial Family was far incomparable to the Jia Ma Empire.

With Qin Heng, a six-star Dou Venerate suppressing above, even the Daoist Sect with a long heritage was only a state religion coexisting with the Eastern Xuan Empire.

Qin Heng had targeted Lin Xian'er long ago. If Lin Xian'er's aptitude was grafted into the descendants of the Imperial Family, it would be limitless.

However, he found that Lin Xian'er was guarded by two Dou Ancestor puppets, indicating that her background was extraordinary, so he didn't rush to act. Instead, he waited until Lin Xian'er entered the Hidden Dragon Cave, where all external objects would be isolated. In this way, there would be no trouble left after taking action.

Unfortunately, Qin Heng miscalculated one point, that is, Han Feng could quickly cross the continent and come directly to Lin Xian'er.

Han Feng came above the Hidden Dragon Cave in one step.

Knowing from Qin Heng's mind that once the Hidden Dragon Cave is closed, everything outside cannot contact the inside, even Dou Venerate experts cannot break through.

Golden light burst from Han Feng's body, and the origin of the Black Yellow Flame manifested.

"Heaven and Earth Mysterious Sect!"

He raised his right hand, and a mountain-shaped phantom appeared in the sky.

Han Feng waved his right hand, and the big mountain smashed downwards.

A sound of earth-shattering spread. The land within a radius of a hundred miles trembled faintly, and cracks opened in closer places.

However, above the Hidden Dragon Cave, there seemed to be a layer of invisible barrier blocking all damage.

Han Feng frowned slightly.

Even the Black Yellow Flame with the thickest power cannot destroy it?

He didn't delay and directly activated the Red Emperor Armor.

Fiery red armor covered his whole body, and a pair of huge wings opened behind his back.

In Han Feng's sea of consciousness, Heaven Realm soul power poured out. His combat power directly broke through the limit of Half-Saint, erupting with might comparable to Dou Saint, shaking this world.

Not finished yet!

"Flame God Transformation!"

Han Feng triggered the six Heavenly Flames in his body. Six patterns of different colors spread from his heart, and his momentum rose further.

"God Ember!"

Han Feng raised his right hand, and a light ball condensed with a large amount of flame laws was born in his palm.

Boom!

A fire pillar penetrating heaven and earth rose above the Hidden Dragon Cave.

Time and space seemed to be burned through at this moment.

Those cultivators who hadn't had time to run far only felt a whiteness in front of their eyes, and heaven and earth returned to the initial chaos.

Crack!

A crack suddenly opened in that mysterious invisible barrier outside the Hidden Dragon Cave.

At the same time, a magical induction appeared in Han Feng's mind.

This feeling...

Is the aura of a divine beast!

Azure Dragon!

Han Feng recalled the information he just got from Qin Heng's memory.

In the Hidden Dragon Cave, there is suspected to be Azure Dragon inheritance!

Almost as an automatic reaction of the body, the "Black Tortoise Heavenly Ancestor Sutra" began to operate.

A layer of azure water vapor emerged from Han Feng's body, and a Black Tortoise phantom condensed behind him.

"Black Tortoise Suppresses the Sea!"

Han Feng used the true meaning of the sutra and stepped down.

However, unexpectedly, under the power of the Black Tortoise, the barrier outside the Hidden Dragon Cave did not stop Han Feng again, letting him fall in directly.
