"Hmm? Is this the interior of the Temple?"

Lin Mo looked around, finding himself standing in a long, narrow corridor. It seemed that those who entered the Temple with him had been randomly scattered.

"This is actually better, as Li Ling and the Netherworld Sect Great Elder are likely to make a move against me once inside the Temple!"

"If delayed by those two, it might hinder my search for treasure."

As Lin Mo was pondering in his heart, his figure had already vanished from where he stood, rushing deeper into the corridor. He had sensed what seemed to be an energy fluctuation at the end of the corridor.

Moments later, a secret chamber appeared before Lin Mo.

"There must be treasure in this chamber!"

The chamber was now open, with two stone doors spread wide. Inside, the Netherworld Power was surging, and two figures were already present.

At the center of the chamber, a heap of Netherworld Stones piled up like a small mountain, with purple Netherworld Power spreading like a tidal wave.

Sensing Lin Mo’s presence outside, the two inside the chamber turned their heads simultaneously, their faces suddenly turning pale like wax.

"Lin Tanyu!"

The two inside the chamber were Lei Ying and Wu Yu. Unexpectedly, they encountered him here. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Lei Ying and Wu Yu’s faces changed dramatically. The shocking event of Lin Tanyu slaying the Ming King still lingered in their minds, and they bore a grudge against him. Now, they had unexpectedly crossed paths.

"Master Lin Tanyu, if you need the treasures here, you can take them all. We only hope that Master Lin Tanyu can spare us two," Lei Ying gritted his teeth, his face quickly changing to one of flattery, and cupped his hands toward Lin Mo.

"Yes, yes, these treasures all belong to Master Lin Tanyu," Wu Yu added hastily.

Lin Mo coldly looked at the two, sneering, "I killed your Five Primus Sect’s Chief Disciple, the Ming King. Don’t you want revenge? And you’re willing to give me all the treasures here?"

"Master Lin Tanyu, you must be joking. The Ming King overestimated himself and deserved to die. One should know when to adapt," Lei Ying laughed, insisting.

"However, I also want these treasures, and you both must die," Lin Mo said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Lei Ying and Wu Yu’s faces changed dramatically, alternating between pale and red, realizing Lin Mo had a mind to kill.

"Lin Tanyu, don’t be so arrogant. Even if you can kill us, we’ll fight with all our might, and you’ll be severely injured. Remember, the two from the Netherworld Sect are also here in the Temple and won’t spare you if you’re hurt," Wu Yu snarled hoarsely, clenching his fists.

Lin Mo sneered, "You two are overestimating yourselves!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of continuous Netherworld Power spread out. Lei Ying and Wu Yu found themselves bogged down, their True Yuan within also affected!

"Lei Ying, let’s fight him!" Wu Yu shouted.

Lin Mo’s current sealing skill could affect even Star System Level Intermediate cultivators, let alone a Star System Level Early Stage strongman and a Star Sea Level cultivator.

"Blame it on being from the Five Primus Sect. Who knows how many bad deeds you’ve done? Today, I, Lin Tanyu, act for justice." Lin Mo said indifferently, extending his hand. Two streams of Condensed True Yuan formed into long Light Spears, gleaming with sharp light.

"Lin Tanyu, dare you!"

Wu Yu’s face changed dramatically as the two Light Spears pierced through the air, sharply penetrating Wu Yu’s chest, flinging his body backward, pinning it to the wall, with the power within the spears destroying his soul and Dantian completely.

Clang!

As for Lei Ying, he likewise retreated violently, but a Corpse Master appeared before him, blocking the Light Spears, allowing him to escape death.

However, being a Star System Level Early Stage strongman, Lei Ying’s strength far surpassed Wu Yu’s, being able to withstand a strike from Lin Mo was already commendable.

"As long as Master Lin Tanyu spares me, I, Lei Ying, am willing to sacrifice my soul to you and obey your every command!" Lei Ying pleaded, his face changing.

"Oh, too bad I don’t like leaving a foe by my side," Lin Mo shook his head.

Lei Ying, knowing he faced certain death, became ferocious, laughing wildly, "Lin Tanyu, you’ve offended my Five Primus Sect; you’ll die eventually. The sect ancestor won’t spare you."

"The ancestor?" Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, thinking he referred to the Five Primus Sect Master, sneering, "If he comes, I’ll kill him all the same!"

With that, Lin Mo conjured a purple Energy Ball in his hand, with a boom! A purple beam of light shot out, instantly piercing Lei Ying’s chest, snuffing out his Vitality.

Since he’d already offended the Five Primus Sect, Lin Mo wasn’t afraid to eliminate more of its members.

Taking the two’s Space Rings, he casually fed them to the Devouring Spirit Worm. The Devouring Spirit Worm was now his treasure; the more treasures it devoured, the stronger the Star Feather Insects it would produce in the future.

"Netherworld Stones!"

After dealing with the two, Lin Mo’s gaze fell into the Stone Chamber.

The piles of Netherworld Stones were all Pure Nether Stones, the Netherworld Power gentle, spreading like a tide in the Stone Chamber.

Divine Thought swept over, thirty million Pure Netherworld Stones!

Such Netherworld Stones were no small number... knowing he painstakingly slew Beasts on Thunder Mountain earned mere thousands.

"Using these to break through to a Three Seal Netherworld Pattern Master?" Lin Mo shook his head.

A Netherworld Pattern Master is a cultivation method of controlling Netherworld Power. Simply amassing Netherworld Power to seek advancement is impossible; insight is needed besides absorbing Netherworld Power. If mere accumulation sufficed, the Netherworld Sect would’ve long produced many Five or Six Seal Netherworld Pattern Masters.

"Better give them to the Devouring Spirit Worm to help build a Star Feather Insect team, enhancing my strength."

Thinking this, Lin Mo swept his arm, absorbing piles of Netherworld Stones into his Space Ring.

"If such a Stone Chamber holds so many Netherworld Stones, what other treasures lie within?"

Lin Mo exited the Stone Chamber, summoning two flames in his hand, reducing Lei Ying’s and Wu Yu’s remains to ashes.

Following a passageway, the path widened, and a giant Stone Chamber appeared in Lin Mo’s sight with many already inside, including Guo Lu, Xue Chen, Li Ling, and the Netherworld Sect Great Elder.

Upon entering the Stone Chamber, Lin Mo softly exclaimed, his expression turning remarkably grave.

This Stone Chamber seemed to hold a peculiar power, as upon entering, Lin Mo found himself unable to mobilize even a trace of Spiritual Energy or True Yuan.

"Brother Lin Tanyu, you’ve noticed as well?" Guo Lu said with a smile upon seeing him enter.

Lin Mo nodded slightly.

"It’s the same for us. After entering this Stone Chamber, none of us can use our True Yuan. Now, even a common beast could devour us," Guo Lu said with a wry smile.

It seemed the others shared the same fate, having their powers entirely nullified in this sealed chamber.

At the center of the Stone Chamber stood a round pool, its water clear and jade-like. A withered sapling grew from it, about a yard high, resembling a small ordinary tree pole. Suddenly, the branches sprouted lush green leaves, bursting with vigorous Vitality.
