Chapter 287: Entrance to the Sword Tower!

Secondly, the four of them possessed far greater strength than the average students present, and their abilities to deal with demonic beasts were unmatched.

Ling Feng tapped his nose thoughtfully. While he didn\'t consider himself weaker than Du Shaoling and the others, there was no need to reveal too much strength at this moment.

Chen Boguang took a deep breath, steadied his true qi, and activated his augmented qi to shield himself. With a splash, he leaped into the lake.

In the depths of the water, an aura of resentment lingered. It was here that the disciples of the Yijian Sect had met their tragic end and their sect was annihilated, leaving behind an accumulation of boundless grudges.

Chen Boguang knew that accidental contact with the aura could lead to madness, turning him into a mindless puppet driven only by the urge to kill.

After what seemed like half an incense stick\'s worth of time, Chen Boguang finally emerged from the water, trailed by an immensely thick and powerful tentacle.

"Holy crap! Help me, someone! Ahh...!"

Chen Boguang bolted for his life, pushing himself to the limit. His speed surged noticeably, likely aided by some kind of treasured item that granted acceleration.

Du Shaoling, Jun Moxie, and the other two stayed true to their word. They unleashed powerful sword techniques or summoned treasured items, smashing fiercely at the colossal tentacle.

The other top students also displayed their divine skills. The gigantic tentacle, now in agony, grew even more ferocious. Before long, a monstrous octopus-like creature, towering like a small mountain, burst from the lake. Astonishingly, it was a peak fourth-tier demonic beast.

Underwater, a peak fourth-tier demonic beast definitely posed a lethal threat.

At last, Chen Boguang escaped the looming danger, collapsing in shock on the ground. He watched the octopus-like monster with a heart still pounding in fear, his resentment toward Du Shaoling growing stronger by the moment.

As soon as the monster emerged, before it could unleash its demonic essence, over thirty students from the four major academies, who had been waiting for the moment, unleashed their powerful sword techniques against it.

They were all geniuses among geniuses, capable of fighting beyond their tier.

In a matter of moments, the monster was swiftly slain, torn apart into countless pieces by a relentless onslaught of attacks.

The success of the first baiting operation greatly lifted the spirits of the young men and women present.

Following that, apart from Du Shaoling, Jun Moxie, Li Yunlong, and Chu Bingyun, the rest of the students from the four major academies took turns as bait to lure and eliminate the monsters in the lake.

They were all academy geniuses, with plenty of valuable treasures for protection. Unfortunately, even with such preparations, two of them met an untimely demise.

On the path of cultivation, countless bodies of failed aspirants littered the way. Even if one was a genius, once they perished, they were nothing but a lifeless corpse.

At last, it was Ling Feng\'s turn.

Ling Feng smiled slightly, knowing he held the upper hand with his extraordinary ability, Boundless Vision. He could navigate the waters freely, evading the monsters without a worry in the world.

Therefore, he was the most fearless among them all.

Diving into the lake, he enveloped himself in a protective barrier of true qi, shielding himself from the water tainted with resentment.

The water tainted with resentment was extremely toxic; not even a single drop should touch him!

Descending slowly showed him that the earlier group of twenty or thirty individuals had drawn out the giant monsters from the shallower waters. Even after about half an hour, Ling Feng hadn\'t encountered any formidable opponents. With ease, he dispatched some later-stage third-tier and even early-stage fourth-tier monsters with casual sword strikes.

As he delved deeper, Ling Feng soon reached a depth of over three thousand meters. The water pressure was immensely strong, but fortunately, Ling Feng\'s keen perception allowed him to easily detect the movements of aquatic creatures and thus pinpoint their locations.

Before long, Ling Feng detected three extremely powerful auras. He took a deep breath and his expression turned grave.

Ling Feng gripped his fists tightly and thought to himself, “The weaker monsters have already been drawn out. These remaining ones are highly intelligent and won\'t be easily lured away from the lakebed.”

With his Boundless Vision activated, Ling Feng suppressed his presence and carefully steered clear of the directions where these formidable monsters lurked. He continued to descend deeper, searching for any signs of the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder.

...

Half an hour later.

"Could that kid have perished inside?" Some students started to speculate.

"It\'s quite probable!"

A disciple from Zhenlong Academy nodded repeatedly.

Zhenlong Academy and Tianwei Academy had never seen eye to eye, so they secretly hoped for the demise of the Tianwei Academy students.

"Could it be that Ling Feng has encountered a fifth-tier demonic beast?" Ye Nanfeng rested his chin on his hand and murmured to himself.

"Hmph! I\'ll go take a look!" Li Bufan snorted, unable to contain his impatience any longer.

At the peak, loneliness prevailed. While one may have many friends, finding a true rival was rare indeed!

Ling Feng was his lifelong adversary!

Boom!

At that moment, a loud explosion reverberated, and a figure in white burst through the lake\'s surface, landing gracefully on the ground.

And who else could it have been besides Ling Feng?

Taking a moment to catch his breath, Ling Feng strode towards the crowd. Ye Nanfeng\'s heart lifted with joy, and he chuckled, "I knew you weren\'t someone to die early!"

"Hmm? How come there are no monsters following him this time?" Someone expressed their confusion.

"I reckon this fellow had been hiding in the shallow waters the whole time, never venturing deeper. Getting the credit without putting in the effort is just disgraceful!"

As murmurs spread through the crowd, Jun Moxie\'s expression soured slightly. After all, Ling Feng was a disciple of Tianwei Academy. If Ling Feng had truly been lurking in the shallow waters for half a day, it would bring shame upon the entire Tianwei Academy!

Ling Feng let out a cold snort, paying no mind to the idle chatter.

Chu Bingyun from Wenyuan Academy then gracefully approached Ling Feng. She spoke in a gentle tone, saying, "Junior brother, did you sustain any injuries during your descent? I can offer you treatment."

Chu Bingyun naturally wasn\'t acting out of kindness; she merely sought to ingratiate herself with Ling Feng, hoping to glean some useful information.

Ling Feng pursed his lips and waved his hand. "I\'m fine. I didn\'t encounter any formidable monsters at all. And it seems luck was on my side; I found the entrance to the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder."

In reality, if Ling Feng hadn\'t been aware of the possible restrictions surrounding the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, he might have ventured into it alone.

Upon hearing this, everyone was elated. After all, all their effort was so that they could enter the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder.

"Very well, Ling Feng, you\'ve been a tremendous help!" Jun Moxie\'s eyes glinted with a hint of a smile.

"Lead the way," Du Shaoling\'s gaze bore into Ling Feng, as if trying to decipher him.

"Hehe..." Ling Feng chuckled lightly. "Senior brother, why would I lead the way for you?"

"Damn, is this guy out of his mind? Does he even know who he\'s talking to?"

In an instant, all the genius students stared at Ling Feng in astonishment, and even Jun Moxie found it hard to believe his ears.

Who was Du Shaoling?

He was a formidable expert who had unlocked fifty-two meridian gates.

Even Jun Moxie was reluctant to cross swords with Du Shaoling. Yet, Ling Feng dared to ignore this monstrous figure from Zhenlong Academy?
