Chapter V Brains

Xiao Huo and the Spirit Child looked at Xiao Jian Feng who was standing there unmoving. Their faces were filled with doubt. Xiao Huo nudged the spirit child with his head and whispered, "What is boss doing?"

The spirit child pursed his lips and shook his head. "I don't know either."

Time slowly passed. After about fifteen minutes, Xiao Jianfeng let out a long breath as a trace of joy appeared on his face. He turned and left the formation platform, smiling as he said, "Let's head to the Curtainfall Forest."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Xiao Huo exclaimed, "We're not going to kill the other Supreme Celestial Souls?"

Xiao Jianfeng meaningfully looked at Xiao Huo and said with a smile, "Stop talking nonsense and come with me."

In the blink of an eye, three days passed. For them, these three days were indeed a harvest. In just three short days, Xiao Jianfeng and the others had completely destroyed the remaining eight Supreme Celestial Souls. They had also snatched five pieces from the Supreme Celestial Souls.

It could be said that these eight battles were extremely tiring, especially when killing the last Supreme Celestial Soul. Xiao Jian's life was in danger. If not for a flash of golden light from his golden dragon bracelet in the nick of time, he probably would have died.

After Xiao Jianfeng and the others destroyed the nine supreme celestial souls, there was only one Earth Immortal's soul and the Supreme Immortal's soul left in the necropolis. It could be said that other than the two of them, there were no other celestial souls.

For the past three days, Xiao Jian Feng had been paying attention to the Gold Dragon bracelet on his wrist. This was because as they destroyed the immortal's soul, the bracelet was undergoing a miraculous transformation as rays of golden light shot out from it. The Gold Dragon space itself was undergoing a wonderful transformation.

The original fifty square meters of space had now expanded to a size of a hundred square meters, and the spiritual energy contained within the space had become ten times denser than before. The changes in the Golden Dragon Space completely stunned Xiao Jian Feng. Although all of this seemed beneficial, Xiao Jian Feng still felt a strange sense of danger.

However, the source of this inexplicable sense of danger was not the Immortal Graveyard, but the golden dragon bracelet on his wrist. Although he observed the bracelet every day, he couldn't see through its secrets. This made him uneasy.

Curtainfall Forest, the most mysterious place in the necropolis of the Grand Immortals. This was where the soul of the Grand Immortals hid. Without the soul's order, no celestial soul would dare to approach the necropolis. If they did, they would face the wrath of the soul and be exterminated with a flip of their hands.

Xiao Jianfeng and the rest stood at the edge of the forest. As they stared at the mysterious forest, they felt an incomparably stifling pressure.

"Boss, this place is so strange!" Little Flame looked around vigilantly, saying these words in an extremely heavy tone.

Xiao Jian Feng swept his gaze across Xiao Huo and felt as if there was a huge boulder pressing down on his heart. At this moment, he started to hesitate, because the feeling this Curtainfall gave him was too strange. Once he entered, he might not be able to turn back. Actually, he didn't really care about Xiao Jian Feng's own safety. What he cared about was Xiao Huo and the spirit child's safety.

So what if he died? Although there were still many unfulfilled desires, who would not have feelings and wishes? An idea of abandoning himself unknowingly appeared in Xiao Jian Feng's mind. An unprecedented sense of despair made him feel that everything was fine.

Images appeared in Xiao Jian Feng's mind one by one. His benevolent face seemed to appear in front of him as he laid in the crystal coffin. The scenes of his childhood quickly appeared before his eyes. Everything seemed so beautiful and blissful.

However, when the crystal coffin appeared in his head once again, a hot tear slowly rolled down from Xiao Jianfeng's eye and dripped down his cheek onto the ground before him.

"Bada!" An inaudible sound came from the ground. Even though it was very soft, it sounded very sorrowful and heavy to Xiao Jianfeng's ears.

Xiao Huo looked at Xiao Jianfeng's trembling body as hot tears rolled down his face. His emotions were extremely unstable, causing him to feel quite frightened. From the time they had met until now, he had never seen Xiao Jian Feng like this. This caused him to worry and he immediately shouted, "Boss, boss, what's wrong?"

Following Xiao Huo's loud shout, Xiao Jian Feng was roused from his deep grief and despair.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with me? " Xiao Jianfeng raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, revealing an expression of disbelief.

"Boss, your mood was very unstable just now. Fortunately, I woke you up. If I continued to immerse you in that state, you would probably go berserk." Xiao Huo looked at Xiao Jian Feng with concern.

Xiao Jian Feng took in a few deep breaths and circulated his Spiritual Energy around his body once. In an instant, he removed all the grief and despair from his mind. A determined look appeared on his face. His eyes lit up and he said, "There is a strange power here that affects people's minds. You must be careful and not get caught up in your own past. Otherwise, the consequences will be dire."

Xiao Huo and the Spirit Child nodded in agreement.

When Xiao Jianfeng had just brought them less than a kilometer away from the Curtain Forest, a huge gust of wind suddenly blew. The weird wind blew and caused the clouds to roll. The sky became dark. The weird wind blew Xiao Jian Feng and the rest until they could not see clearly. They could only use all of their Fa Li to resist.

The strange wind only subsided after half an incense stick of time. After the strange wind passed, Xiao Jian Feng and the others looked at it and were so shocked that they didn't know what to say anymore.

In front of him, there was a grand and magnificent palace. This palace was filled with immortal qi, and it took up about a thousand meters in area. The entire thing was carved out of a huge piece of jade. It could really be described as a masterpiece of seizing the heaven's palace. He really didn't know which immortal would be able to do such a thing.

Xiao Jianfeng suppressed the shock in his heart and carefully looked at the grand palace not far away. He frowned slightly and a puzzled expression appeared on his face. This was because there was only one palace in front of them. Such a magnificent palace actually didn't have any decorations and just stood there by itself. This made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Boss, look behind you?"

Xiao Jian Feng heard Xiao Huo's anxious voice and turned his head to look at the road. When he saw it, he was immediately shocked. He saw a white mist behind him, but he couldn't see more than ten meters ahead of him. It gave off a vague feeling, giving him a surreal feeling.

Xiao Jianfeng turned around and his eyes were like torches as he stared at the palace before him and said, "Go in."

The moment Xiao Jianfeng and the others stepped into the palace, a loud laugh was suddenly heard from the depths. However, Xiao Jianfeng and the others wanted to search for the source of the laughter. However, he discovered that the laughter seemed to come from all directions and was simply unable to lock onto him.

At that moment, Xiao Jian Feng and the others were all looking around vigilantly. Each of them was prepared to fight. As soon as they noticed that something was amiss, they would immediately launch an intense attack. Just as they were extremely nervous, a loud and joyful voice came from all directions.

"Little fellows, I truly did not expect you to attack here so quickly. This is truly out of my expectations."

Xiao Jianfeng's eyes looked warily around the resplendent hall. He said in a low voice, "Stop pretending to be mysterious. You are the soul of an Supreme Immortal. I think it's best if he shows himself. "

"Hahaha!"

That sonorous and powerful voice that was filled with magnetism rang out once again, "Kid, you must have a sharp tongue. If I appeared, I believe you would definitely be so shocked that you would faint."

Xiao Jianfeng frowned when he heard what the soul of the Supreme Immortal said. He revealed a puzzled expression. Surprise? Why was he surprised? Could it be his identity?

Xiao Jianfeng's expression changed as he thought about this. He exclaimed, "Could it be that you are Senior Bai?"

"Ha!" Ha! "Ha!"

Following a hearty laugh, a ray of white light shone down from above the palace. A figure slowly appeared in front of Xiao Jian Feng and the others.

His clothes were snow-white, immortal aura was swirling around his body, and his black hair was fluttering in the wind. He gave off a feeling of immortality. This person was none other than the overseer of the Immortal's Tomb, Bai Shengtian.

Bai Shengtian looked at the shocked expressions of Xiao Jian Feng and the rest and smiled, "I just said that as long as I appear, you will definitely be shocked."

Xiao Jian Feng looked at the smiling Bai Shengtian and took a step back. With a wary expression, he said in a low voice, "It really is you."

Bai Shengtian looked at Xiao Jian Feng as if he was facing a great enemy and laughed softly, "There is no need to be so cautious with me. I have no ill intentions towards you."

"No malice? Who would believe it? " Xiao Huo grimaced in a ferocious manner.

Bai Shengtian had a smile in his eyes. With a wave of his right hand, a white light flashed and the lightning stone enveloped Little Flame in a flash. With a slight movement of his finger, Little Fire's body flew uncontrollably towards Bai Shengtian.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Xiao Huo screamed and pushed all the Spiritual Energy in his body to the limit. Rays of flame burst out from his body and turned into extremely sharp sword shadows, crazily attacking the white light around him. However, when these sword shadows, which contained a huge amount of power, hacked at the white light, they did not have the slightest effect.

Bai Shengtian watched as Little Fire floated in front of him. He lightly tapped Little Fire's head with his right index finger. Little Fire's huge body, several meters wide, instantly shrank to the size of a kitten.

"Little tiger, be good and don't scream. I won't hurt you." Bai Shengtian held Xiao Huo in his arms and looked at Xiao Jianfeng. He said, "Congratulations on passing the test of the first layer of the Supreme Immortal Tomb."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

When Xiao Jian Feng heard Bai Shengtian's words, his jaw immediately dropped. Just what was going on? How did he pass the test? There are only three ways to pass the test, but none of us have completed it yet. How can we suddenly pass the test? Xiao Jian Feng was completely at a loss at this.
