At this moment, the disciples of the Green Mountain Sect were still unaware of the impending danger, and the eldest disciple in the group continued to curse and swear at Xiao Feng and the others.
"If I find out which sect they belong to, I will definitely not let them off!" The eldest brother shouted as he finally spat out the mud from his mouth.
"Senior brother, we told you not to rob, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened! If Master finds out, he'll definitely blame us!"
The junior brother, who was tied up, cautiously spoke from the tree next to the senior brother.
"You coward! Shut up! All you guys do is drag me down. Now you're just being wise after the event, why didn't you say so before?" The senior brother glared angrily at his junior brother.
The junior brothers whispered among themselves; they had tried to stop them earlier, but hadn't succeeded.
Who are you trying to rob?
A ghostly voice sounded from behind them, and a cold dagger was held against the neck of the senior disciple of the Green Mountain Sect.
"Who? I am the eldest disciple of the Green Mountain Sect!" The eldest disciple was startled and stammered.
"Green Mountain Sect? What trash? Never heard of it. Who tied you up here?" The person behind them never showed himself.
Feeling threatened with death, the senior disciple dared not delay and quickly confessed honestly.
The other party seemed to think he was too slow, and brought the dagger even closer.
"Was this woman among those people?" Zhao Yuwei's appearance was revealed to everyone.
"Yes, yes, yes! There's this woman! There are so many of them!" the eldest brother immediately exclaimed.
"Which direction did they go?" the assassin continued to ask.
"East! They just left not long ago! They still have a treasure map!"
Although the eldest brother didn't know who these people were, he knew they were up to no good, so he decided to divert the trouble to them.
"That's right, I'll make sure you die a quick death."
Along with that chilling voice, their lives also vanished.
The other assassins following behind the leader awaited orders.
Are their claims credible?
"Let's go after them and see; their auras are about the same!"
A group of assassins chased after Xiao Feng and his companions.
Xiao Feng and his companions were fast, and with the treasure map in hand, Long Gu could immediately discern the route to the treasure map.
With Longgu leading the way, Xiao Feng and the others followed behind, and the group arrived at the foot of a mountain.
"The treasure map shows that the treasure is inside the mountain, which should be the mountain in front of us."
Longgu looked at the mountain in front of him, then at the map in his hand, and asked for confirmation.
But Xiao Feng felt that the mountains on the map and the mountains in front of him were only the top half the same.
The area below the mountains on the map is not land, but a white line.
Xiao Feng was unaware of what the white line represented and prepared to lead the others into the mountain.
"Don't rush. Since it's a treasure map, the place where the treasure is hidden must also be dangerous. This mountain looks ordinary, but I can sense that there is a barrier here."
As soon as Longgu said this, the other ferocious beasts immediately nodded in agreement.
"When it comes to hiding treasures, no demon knows better than the dragons. The dragons love hiding treasures the most!"
"But this barrier is completely invisible, and we don't know if there are other traps here."
Hearing the ferocious beasts say this, Xiao Feng looked at the dragon bone and asked, "Can you tell what type of barrier this place is? Is it one that can be entered but not exited, or one that cannot be entered at all?"
Dragon Bone shook his head.
"I can only sense that there is a barrier here, but I can't tell what type of barrier it is. But since the treasure is inside the mountain, why don't we go in and take a look?"
"This secret realm isn't of a very high level, so even with the barrier, this place shouldn't be too dangerous."
This isn't the first time the Wind Shadow Secret Realm has appeared.
In this secret realm, unless people kill each other, it's very difficult for anyone to die.
This level of secret realm generally doesn't pose much danger.
Moreover, people of Xiao Feng's level could turn mountains into nothingness with a mere flick of their wrists.
Xiao Feng tried to raise his hand to attack the distant mountain peak, but the spiritual power he released disappeared in mid-air, as if it had been swallowed by something.
This further confirms that what Longgu said earlier about the presence of a barrier here is true.
"Everyone be careful. We're not sure if we'll be separated after entering the barrier. If we are, please communicate telepathically!"
Xiao Feng and the others arrived at the foot of the mountain.
An invisible wave seemed to be blocking them from entering, and Xiao Feng gave instructions to everyone.
Then, the group walked forward together.
Everyone did indeed feel it; something seemed to be preventing them from getting closer.
But the thing only struggled slightly before breaking open.
Xiao Feng and the others were not separated.
However, at the foot of the mountain, there was a lake.
As soon as Xiao Feng and his companions stepped inside, they fell directly into the lake.
Before they could react, the lake had already submerged them.
Xiao Feng quickly turned around, but could only see that their kick had landed them directly in the center of a boundless lake.
Xiao Feng possesses several magical treasures that allow him to breathe freely underwater.
Fortunately, the group was not far apart, so Xiao Feng quickly used his spiritual power to wrap the magic weapon and deliver it to them.
The spiritual energy was not restricted in the lake.
But when Xiao Feng tried to swim upstream out of the lake, he found that a thin film on the surface of the lake was blocking them from below.
They all tried, but even using the power of the ferocious beasts, they still couldn't break through the water.
Left with no other option, the group began swimming into the water.
The lake looked quite large, but it got darker as you went deeper, and you could never see the bottom.
As the water temperature gradually decreased, Zhao Yuwei was the least affected.
Spending too much time in the water affected Xiao Feng and the others' senses.
After swimming for an unknown amount of time, a sliver of light finally appeared before their eyes.
"What is that?" Xiao Feng asked in surprise.
"It looks like a city!" Zhao Yuwei was also quite surprised.
There is actually a city hidden beneath this lake, which is thousands of meters deep and behind the barrier.
"Let's go down and take a look!" Xiao Feng had a premonition that the treasure they were looking for might be hidden in this underground city!
As Xiao Feng and his companions continued to descend, the underground city gradually came into full view.
When Xiao Feng and his companions passed through the barrier above the underground city, they escaped from the lake and landed heavily on the ground.
"I never expected there to be a place like this in the Wind Shadow Secret Realm!"
Xiao Feng looked up at the lake.
To their surprise, the sky above the underground city was completely unaffected by the darkness of the lake; on the contrary, it seemed as if the sky was only inches away from the water's surface.
"Could it be spatial rules?" Xiao Feng wondered to himself.
"Let's go inside the city and take a look," Zhao Yuwei suggested from the side.
Xiao Feng suppressed his doubts, took Zhao Yuwei's hand, and led the other demonic beasts toward the city gate.
"There must be an ancient formation protecting this lakeside city, and this barrier is also due to the formation."
