"Saber momentum perfected!"

Lin Fei's eyes were profound. From manifesting the saber momentum to its ultimate completion, he had undergone countless trials. In the grand era of Great Chang, Lin Fei manifested the saber momentum. And with this momentum, he vanquished the ten immortal gates of Great Chang, earning him the title "Saber Saint".

However, Lin Fei traveled across the seas from Great Chang, a journey that spanned nearly a year. In that year, countless events unfolded. Many would not experience in decades or even centuries, what Lin Fei encountered in that single year. Thus, he felt a deep sense of hardship. Yet, his efforts finally bore fruit. The saber momentum was perfected.

Now, Lin Fei could attempt to condense the Spirit Flower. Furthermore, he felt that the Spirit Flower would come effortlessly to him. After all, his saber momentum was unprecedented in its might. It had integrated countless saber techniques, including three top-tier techniques of the Martial Saint level.

Fusing myriad saber momentums, Lin Fei's now perfect momentum was so powerful, that its extent was even unclear to him. However, now was not the time to condense the Spirit Flower.

Since entering the immortal mansion, though merely twenty-nine days had passed, he had slain many of Taiyi Dao Palace's top Foundation Establishment True Persons. The remaining five True Persons had fled. Who could predict the next move of Taiyi Dao Palace's Golden Core True Person? Thus, Lin Fei needed to leave the immortal mansion posthaste.

"Let's go."

Without further hesitation, Lin Fei immediately departed from the prison of the immortal mansion. Guided by the Human-faced Fruit, He could swiftly return to where he first entered the immortal mansion, and thus, leave the mansion entirely.

Beneath the ocean depths, Golden Light True Person, Red Crane True Person, and Wind Sovereign were covertly communicating. All of them were intently observing Taiyi Dao Palace's True Person Lu Feng.

Regardless of any grudges between Wind Sovereign and Golden Light True Person, in the face of Taiyi Dao Palace, the three powers stood united, setting aside past grievances and presenting a united front. They dared not let their guard down against True Person Lu Feng.

A hum resonated. It originated from the heart of the immortal mansion.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Five figures, seemingly fleeing in panic, emerged from the mansion. Their movements appeared staggered, unsteady. These were the five Foundation Establishment True Persons of Taiyi Dao Palace. Yet, now they looked utterly terrified, their eyes reflecting sheer horror. Their appearance was rather pitiable.

"We've finally escaped!"

"Ha, we made it out!"

"True Person Lu Feng is here too; we're safe."

The relief was palpable on the faces of the five cultivators upon spotting Lu Feng.

However, witnessing this, Lu Feng's expression darkened ominously. He coldly inquired, "What exactly happened that left you all in such a state of panic, forcing you to leave the immortal mansion in such disarray? And where are the others?"

Facing Lu Feng's question, the five hurriedly approached him. Their eyes still harbored traces of lingering fear toward the immortal mansion behind them. The group reported, "Elder Lu, there's no one else. Only the five of us remain; the others have perished."

"Perished?"

The news visibly shook Lu Feng.

"Yes, all gone. We initially entered the immortal mansion and, following your instructions began collecting various magical treasures. However, we later encountered Lin Fei of the Ancient Origin Sect in the mansion's prison. He struck at us fiercely, slaying over a dozen of us. We were the only ones fortunate enough to escape."

The five Taiyi Dao Palace True Persons chose their words carefully, subtly pinning the blame entirely on Lin Fei.

"Lin Fei?"

Lu Feng's gaze sharply turned towards Wind Sovereign. In fact, Wind Sovereign, Red Crane True Person, and Golden Light True Person all wore expressions of shock. They were all well aware of Taiyi Dao Palace's distinct features.

Over twenty top-tier Foundation Establishment True Persons, each possessing a Great Mountain Seal. The combined might of these True Persons was terrifying. Could Lin Fei, on his own, have truly defeated so many from Taiyi Dao Palace?

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

At that moment, even more figures emerged from the immortal mansion. These were members from the Red Hades Mansion and Profound Light Cave Heaven.

"Why have you come out? It's only been twenty-nine days; you could have stayed an extra day."

Red Crane True Person and Golden Light True Person both frowned, seemingly discontented. After all, opportunities in the immortal mansion were rare to come by. Every moment inside could lead to discovering valuable treasures. Leaving a day early could mean missing out on numerous magical treasures.

Members from both Red Hades Mansion and Profound Light Cave Heaven spoke with wry smiles, "Elders, it's not that we didn't want to stay in the immortal mansion for another day, but we simply couldn't and didn't dare to. Earlier, there was a conflict between members of Taiyi Dao Palace and Elder Lin of the Ancient Origin Sect. The Taiyi Dao Palace initiated an attack using their magical treasures against Elder Lin. As a result, Elder Lin showed immense strength and killed over a dozen of Taiyi Dao Palace's Foundation Establishment True Persons. Elder Lin then drove us out as well. We figured there wasn't much point in staying another day, given the danger, so we immediately left the immortal mansion."

The explanations from the members of Red Hades Mansion and Profound Light Cave Heaven clarified the situation to the three Golden Core True Persons and Wind Sovereign. However, the news that Lin Fei, all on his own, had slain more than a dozen top-tier Foundation Establishment True Persons from Taiyi Dao Palace was astonishing. The power displayed by a Martial Saint of such caliber was beyond their imagination.

Wind Sovereign internally felt a great shock. He knew Lin Fei was powerful, but he hadn't expected this magnitude of strength.

"What an Ancient Origin Sect, what a Lin Fei!" True Person Lu Feng exclaimed, his anger evident, as a chilling intent to kill emanated from him.

Wind Sovereign retorted, "True Person Lu, our four major forces agreed before entering the immortal mansion that it would be every man for himself. Now, can't Taiyi Dao Palace accept a loss? Especially when it was your disciples who initiated the attack on Elder Lin of my Ancient Origin Sect and they were countered and killed by Elder Lin. It just means that your Taiyi Dao Palace is inferior."

Lu Feng's anger reached its peak. "Inferior?! Humph! How about, Wind Sovereign, you and I have a direct confrontation?"

As the tension intensified, Red Crane True Person and Golden Light True Person intervened, "True Person Lu Feng, are you trying to ignite a conflict between Taiyi Dao Palace and our three major forces?"

The atmosphere was thick with tension, the outcome of this confrontation uncertain.

"We've already agreed that once inside the immortal mansion, it's every person for themselves," Golden Light True Person reiterated.

"Now, True Person Lu Feng is acting out of spite against Wind Sovereign. Attacking Wind Sovereign is essentially provoking all three of our major forces. We stand united," Red Crane True Person added with conviction. The bond and understanding among the three major forces were evident.

Wind Sovereign nodded subtly in agreement, grateful for the support of Red Crane True Person and Golden Light True Person. The unity of the three major powers was their strongest card, ensuring that Taiyi Dao Palace could not target them individually.

Lu Feng's expression turned somber. He could potentially take on Wind Sovereign alone, but with the additional support of Red Crane and Golden Light, he would definitely be at a disadvantage. However, the thought of letting Lin Fei go after the latter had slain many of his elite Foundation Establishment cultivators, including two of his own disciples, did not sit well with him. Even as a Golden Core True Person, returning to Taiyi Dao Palace with such a loss would be a humiliation. His status demanded revenge.

Lu Feng's gaze shifted to the grand formation of the immortal mansion. An idea dawned on him. Lin Fei hadn't emerged yet. In fact, he was the only one left inside. "Hmph, if that's the case, then let Lin Fei stay in the immortal mansion forever," he thought maliciously.

With that, Lu Feng began retracting his spiritual power, deliberately ceasing to suppress the grand formation of the immortal mansion alongside Wind Sovereign and the others.

"Lu Feng, you dare?!" Wind Sovereign's expression changed dramatically, his power surging towards the mansion's grand formation in a desperate bid to prevent its closure.

But without Lu Feng's assistance, Wind Sovereign's efforts, no matter how intense, could not halt the inevitable.

Boom!

The grand formation of the immortal mansion sealed itself. Alarmingly, the entire mansion began to vibrate—it was preparing to depart. Once the immortal mansion disappeared, even if the Ancient Origin Sect could muster the strength of four Martial Sovereigns, rescuing Lin Fei would be impossible.

Lin Fei was at risk of being trapped inside the immortal mansion forever.
