What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?!

Outside the mountain range, Luo Ze closely observed the Zhenmo Mountain ahead.

Calculating the time, Ye Yu and Yun Roumu had been inside for nearly half an hour.

Logically speaking, they should have reached the interior of the Zhenmo Mountain and seen Lin Fengyuan by now.

Why was there no sign of any activity? Had something unexpected happened?

Luo Ze felt very anxious.

In contrast, the other four sect leaders remained very calm.

To them, regardless of how esteemed a saint or saintess might be, they were still just disciples, not their own children.

From the moment they stepped into the Zhenmo Mountain, their lives and deaths were already uncertain, and fortune was up to heaven.

Whether they lived or died depended on their own abilities.

However, if they could bring out Lin Fengyuan’s treasure, it would be a different story.

At that time, they would definitely intervene to protect them. Even if it meant falling out with Azure Cloud Sect, it would be worth it.

After all, who wouldn’t be envious of Lin Fengyuan’s treasure?

At this moment, the Zhenmo Mountain began to shake violently.

In just a few breaths of time, the entire mountaintop suddenly ruptured, and a red light shot straight into the sky.

Soon after, the entire area within a thousand miles was filled with the clear sound of sword chimes.

Piercing sword energy echoed, leaving countless enormous sword marks at the foot of the mountain.

Centering on the mountaintop, a terrifying pressure swept across the scene.

Luo Ze and Tang Shaojin, along with the others, had their expressions turn gravely serious in an instant.

This situation had already revealed everything.

The demon-slaying mission had failed; Lin Fengyuan had broken the seal and returned to the mortal realm.

This terrifying pressure was the best proof of it.

At this moment, the seal on Zhenmo Mountain had been completely shattered, with no more restrictions remaining.

Luo Ze was deeply concerned about Yun Roumu and Ye Yu’s safety, but he did not forget to make his own preparations.

“The Eight Desolations Demon Prison Array is activated. All sect leaders, follow me to slay the demon!”

After saying that, he took the lead and headed toward the Zhenmo Mountain.

Tang Shaojin of Tianxu Mountain, Cheng Yalu of Flying Cloud Pavilion, and the others exchanged glances before following closely behind.

Their attention was entirely drawn to the Zhenmo Mountain, and they didn’t notice that not far behind the mountain range, nearly a hundred pairs of eyes were coldly watching them.

If Luo Ze were here, he would be greatly shocked.

A dozen or so demonic sect leaders and elders lay in ambush here.

To say it without exaggeration, more than half of the top demonic powers in the Central Continent were here. The lineup was formidable beyond measure.

The leading elder was stooped and emaciated, with a pair of inverted triangle eyes. In this darkness, he looked like a malevolent spirit.

This person was the master of the Zhuoxin Temple, Tao Shanen.

Though his name sounded quite amiable, he was actually ruthless and cruel.

He practiced using the blood of cultivators and was one of the top ten demons on the Central Continent. He was also the greatest enemy Azure Cloud Sect has faced in a millennium.

Beside him, He Jiadi, the master of the Ming He Tower, slowly stepped forward and softly asked, “Sect Master Tao, Lin Fengyuan has successfully broken the seal. When shall we make our move?”

Tao Shanen sneered, “Why the rush? Let them fight it out first. It would be best if all five sacred land sect leaders were to perish at Lin Fengyuan’s hands. It would not be a waste of the effort we’ve put into this!”

He Jiadi’s face also showed a hint of a bloodthirsty smile.

It made sense.

Luo Ze and Tang Shaojin, after all, are the leaders of the sacred lands, with profound cultivation and unparalleled power. Facing them directly would be fruitless.

It’s better to let Lin Fengyuan deal with them first.

After all, they had put in so much effort just to see this day.

In fact, long ago, Tao Shanen and He Jiadi had considered releasing Lin Fengyuan to restore the demonic path’s glory.

But due to the restrictions of Zhenmo Mountain, they were always unable to approach or contact Lin Fengyuan.

This had been a significant headache for them.

However, a hundred years ago, Tao Shanen and He Jiadi finally found an opportunity.

At that time, Lin Fengyuan had already awakened from his seal. The surging sword energy was uncontrollable and had torn a small hole in the Zhenmo Mountain’s restrictions.

Tao Shanen had immediately concealed himself and, without alerting any of the mountain’s guards, contacted Lin Fengyuan using a sealing funnel from outside the mountain.

Tao Shanen conveyed that, as a junior in the demonic path, he had long admired Lin Fengyuan’s reputation. Seeing the former giant of the demonic path still sealed was disheartening.

He offered to use illusions to cover up the fact that Lin Fengyuan had awakened, allowing him to focus on breaking the seal. He assured that they would do their utmost to assist with any needs.

After thirty thousand years of sealing, Lin Fengyuan had long been disgusted with this place.

With someone willing to help, he immediately agreed. He stated that as long as the cover was maintained for a hundred years, he could definitely break the seal within that time frame.

After the agreement was reached, Tao Shanen then resided near the Zhenmo Mountain, casting illusions daily to confuse the Azure Cloud Sect elders guarding the area.

Heaven rewards the diligent.

After a hundred years of effort, the response came.

Lin Fengyuan announced that he would soon break through the seal.

So, Tao Shanen devised a plan.

He intentionally left some traces for the five sacred lands to see, making them believe that Lin Fengyuan was about to emerge.

Thus, they gathered here.

Tao Shanen’s intention was to have Lin Fengyuan engage in a fierce battle with the five sect leaders upon his emergence, while he and his allies reaped the benefits.

Even if Lin Fengyuan was not as formidable as the legends suggested and couldn’t kill Luo Ze and the others, heavy injuries would suffice!

Tao Shanen could then wait for the opportunity to strike.

To this end, he had gathered many demonic cultivators here.

Watching everything unfold according to plan, Tao Shanen’s face revealed a bloodthirsty smile.

Fight on!

Hopefully, you all will fight to the death!

Meanwhile, inside the Zhenmo Mountain, the ice coffin shattered into fragments.

Lin Fengyuan, masked and emerging from the broken coffin, gazed at Liu Ge, Lu Anqing, and the others, who were within arm’s reach.

With a swift motion of his wide sleeve, countless sword energies surged forth, instantly shredding them to pieces.

Seeing this scene, Ye Yu’s eyelids twitched.

The mastery of this person’s sword technique, and the intensity of his sword intent, were truly jaw-dropping.

Moreover, judging from the recent fluctuations in spiritual energy, Lin Fengyuan was definitely a grand cultivator at the mid-stage of Ascension Realm or higher.

This was indeed a difficult situation!

Ye Yu held the Heavenly Thunder Destruction Talisman in his sleeve, contemplating for a long time. Still, he did not take it out.

Before coming, Luo Ze had instructed that although the Heavenly Thunder Destruction Talisman was a Heaven grade talisman, its immense power required incantation to activate.

At such a close distance, Lin Fengyuan would definitely not give him any opportunity.

Unless, right now, there was a fearless warrior, willing to sacrifice themselves for two breaths of time.

No more, just two breaths would be enough.

Ye Yu turned to look at Zhou Qifan, the Saint of Tianxu Mountain.

The latter immediately responded with a smile.

Still smiling at this time?

Is this guy perhaps not right in the head?

Or was he already prepared to face death?

Is this his final farewell?

Tsk tsk, the Saint of Tianxu Mountain truly had a tough backbone.

Just as Ye Yu was lamenting, Zhou Qifan took a step forward.

He knelt on one knee before Lin Fengyuan.

“On behalf of the Zhuoxin Temple, under the orders of our leader Tao Shanen, I have come to respectfully welcome Senior Lin out of seclusion!”
