The two pairs of huge wings behind Ling Yi fluttered slightly, then disappeared in an instant. His slender body stood up from the ground, and his blue eyes looked down at Yun Feng with a smile in his eyes.
"Of course, Master." Lan Yi slowly knelt down on one knee, his head slightly bowed, and the blue pattern on his cheek was displayed in front of Yun Feng, looking very elegant.
Yun Feng's lips curled into a smile, his own strength was recognized, and he won the heartfelt admiration of the demon beasts. For a summoner, this was a very glorious and proud thing.
Yun Feng's spiritual power spread out from within his body, a slightly thick spiritual energy that contained energy slowly covered the area where Lan Yue was. Lan Yue did not resist in the slightest and quietly knelt there, waiting for Yun Feng's contract.
"Contract Array, activate!" Yun Feng's low shout, on the ground where Lian Yi was standing, a five-colored contract array suddenly appeared. The five tips of the contract array flickered with different elemental colors, while the red color of the fire element was the most intense, and the other four colors were slightly dimmer.
Ling Yi was also surprised when he saw the five-colored contract array, five colors? He originally thought she was at most a four-elemental, but didn't expect her to be a five-elemental!
Lan Yi's heart also felt a great sense of relief and excitement, this master was indeed the right one!
"That girl is actually a Five Elements user, tsk tsk tsk tsk, unexpected... unexpected..." A young onlooker watching Yun Feng's contract array couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, while the owner of the aged voice also remained silent, seemingly stunned into speechlessness.
Yun Feng looked at the center of the Contract Array, where Lan Yue was standing. This time's contract was much more convenient than the first one. The small fire from the first time had tried to escape, but this time Lan Yue was completely willing and obedient!
"The Contract of the Wind, appear!" With Yun Feng's low shout, the five-colored contract array slowly transformed into a pure green color. The green wind element surged within the contract array, enveloping Lan Yi's entire body.
"I make a contract, from now on you are my beast, contract!" In his heart, Yun Feng opened his eyes, and a green light flashed in his eyes, like a shining meteor.
Unlike Xiao Huo's master-slave contract, Yun Feng and Lan Yi's contract is an equal one. Lan Yi's wholehearted devotion also made Yun Feng choose this more liberating contract for himself. Although Xiao Huo is now obedient to a fault, he was originally violent and cruel, making it impossible for Yun Feng to put his mind at ease.
The contract array slowly disappeared from under Ling Yue's body, and Yun Feng also had a strange feeling. The connection between Ling Yue and Yun Feng was even closer. Between the demon beast and the summoner, once they made a contract, their minds would be the same.
A strand of pure green emerged from Lianyi's body and slowly floated out, transforming into a green silk thread that wrapped around Yunfeng's fingers. Yunfeng looked at the strand of wind element slowly wrapping around his fingers, and finally, a burst of green light flashed, and a ring with a completely green body appeared on his finger, with eight leaf marks on its surface.
Level 8 Contract: Storm Wing Wyvern!
"Master." Ling Yue smiled as she looked at Yun Feng, who nodded and gazed at the green contract ring on her finger, feeling a strange sense of satisfaction. The second contract demon beast was actually in this Dragon Temple, which was truly unimaginable no matter what.
"Congratulations, Ah Ya." After a slight tremor in the space, the young man who had been hiding and watching appeared, his greyish-white pupils gazing at Yun Feng with satisfaction.
"Seniors are just lucky. " Yun Feng smiled humbly, the young man let out a strange laugh, his eyes scanned to Ling Yue's body, "This kid can pretend to be a mount too, you humans don't love showing off and putting on airs, Ling Yue can actually help you."
Yun Feng thought for a moment, the totem on Lian Yi's wing should be his true form, a four-winged lion-headed eagle-bodied demon beast. If he really rode it back to the human world, the entire Eastern Continent would probably boil over.
"Ling Yi, what is your true form as a demon beast?" Yun Feng asked. Ling Yi replied, "A Griffin."
"Girl, don't underestimate Lianyi. The Lion Eagle is the king among eagles, and the number of wings also determines the purity of its bloodline. As far as I know, this kid Lianyi is the only one with four wings among all Lion Eagles."
Lan Yue didn't say much, but Yun Feng had already understood the meaning behind his words. Although Lan Yue wasn't a variant demon beast, he was still an extremely powerful one in terms of species, and among the Lion Eagles, he was the only four-winged demon beast, which made him a rare breed.
"Little guy, the Lion Eagle clan is rarely seen in the world. My understanding of this clan is also very limited. You are lucky to have encountered a four-winged Lion Eagle here!" The ancestor's words were filled with envy. I estimate that during his heyday, although he had some strange encounters, he didn't have one like Yun Feng's - actually meeting the young master of the Dragon Clan, being taken into the Dragon Valley, then entering the Dragon Temple, and finally even contracting a four-winged Lion Eagle!
Yun Feng smiled, his own good fortune was indeed deep and thick, this time unexpectedly entering the Great Rift had brought him so many unexpected encounters.
"Humans, since you have conquered the Ling Wing, you can now enter the ninth layer." The old voice sounded again, Yun Feng's expression turned serious, and Ling Wing stood beside Yun Feng, looking at him, "Master, don't worry."
"Kid, you're already getting out of line?" The young man chuckled and said with a hint of teasing. Lingyun turned around, his blue eyes somewhat helpless, "Uncle Yao, please keep some decorum."
The young man let out a strange laugh, and didn't say anything else. One of the ten doors opened, and Yun Feng looked at the vast white world inside, his heart's hot blood simmering again.
"Let's go, Master." Ling Yi said softly beside Yun Feng. Yun Feng nodded and stepped forward to the entrance. Ling Yi stood by her side, a soft light enveloped their bodies, pulling them closer to the door.
"Bang!" The door made a slight sound as it slowly closed after the two entered. The young man's eyes gazed at the tightly shut door, muttering to himself, "Little girl, it's not over yet, let's see your luck."
As for Yan Yu and Xiao Ling, the two of them entered through the double doors and were pulled inside by two beams of light. The two people naturally had a glimmer of hope in their hearts, hoping to reach the mysterious ninth floor. If they really could enter the ninth floor, perhaps what they lost could still be made up for. Who knows what treasures the ninth floor held? Maybe it would be even better than what they had obtained!
The two of them were both tense and excited, thinking about the mysterious ninth floor, thinking about the treasures that might be inside the ninth floor, both of their hearts were boiling with hot blood!
"Whoosh!" The white light that had enveloped their bodies had completely vanished, and both Xiaoling and Yan Yu hastily opened their eyes. However, what they saw was each other's face, and at the same time, they saw hope turn into disappointment in an instant.
"We're all out." Xiaoling looked at Yan Yu helplessly, and Yan Yu was the same. The two of them looked at the Dragon Temple which was very close to them but they couldn't enter at all, and their hearts were filled with anxiety.
"Will humans enter the ninth level?" Yan Yu furrowed his brow, staring intently at Long Dian, looking upwards as if trying to see the scenery above, but the top of Long Dian pierced into the sky, and it was impossible to see.
Xiao Ling frowned, standing there, now she was the most depressed. Although not empty-handed, but just bringing this one thing out? Thinking about it made her feel like a loss! And her weapon was also taken away by Yun Feng, which made her even more suffocated. All the way here, she and Yan Yu had been fully loaded with treasures, but who would have thought that they lost everything on the eighth floor? Who set this rule, wasn't it completely preventing the dragon clan from taking things from the Dragon Temple?
Xiao Ling felt more and more that something was off. Logically, all the treasures in Long Temple should belong to the dragon clan. Such rules would be harmful and useless for the dragon clan! This is an invisible restriction on the dragon clan! Moreover, Yun Feng is a human being. When humans enter the Dragon Temple, why are there still rules suitable for humans? Could it be that the previous owner of the Dragon Temple had anticipated that humans would enter here?
How strange... it's really too strange...
"Xiao Ling, what are you thinking?! Now what should we do? We can't go in and we can't come out!" Yan Yu looked at Xiao Ling frowning and standing there without speaking, his fiery temper was rising again. Originally this trip was already not going smoothly, now being deprived of so many things, Yan Yu's anger was added to the unsmooth situation!
But what can be done about it? That invisible barrier is right there, and he's not stupid enough to go get himself killed again!
"What else can we do! Don't you use your brain?! Besides waiting here for her to come out, what else can we do!" Xiaoling was also unhappy, her weapon had been taken away, and she only got one thing back. Now Xiaoling's anger was even greater than Yan Yu's, Yan Yu's face turned red, but he forcibly suppressed his own anger. He also understood that in this situation, the two of them shouldn't start an internal conflict.
"Go! I'll wait here for Yun Feng to come out! If she dares to take one more treasure from the Dragon Temple, I'll make her spit it all out!" Yan Yu sat down on the ground with a thud, crossing his legs and staring at the Dragon Temple. Xiao Ling also sat down, and now they had no choice but to wait here. The time limit was one month, and she didn't believe Yun Feng wouldn't come out!
Two people had no other way, they could only think of this method of guarding the tree and waiting for the rabbit, Yan Yu was in a space container that was similar to Cloud's, while Xiao Ling wanted to retrieve her own weapon. At this moment, the two were also united in their hearts, and within this enclosed space, both of them calmed down and used this time to cultivate themselves.
Yun Feng and Lan Yi entered the door, and the soft light group was dragging them forward. Yun Feng saw nothing but a vast expanse of white mist, which disappeared after a while. When he looked up again, it was an exceptionally wide square, but there was nothing on this square.
Empty? The ninth floor has nothing?
Yun Feng looked at the vast empty square in front of him, his eyebrows slightly raised. "Lan Yi, do you know anything about this ninth floor?"
Lan Yi shook her head, "Master, I don't understand these things at all."
Yun Feng heard this and knew that Lan Yi was not lying, his gaze slowly swept over every place in the square, except for a huge ground, there were walls surrounding it, really nothing else.
It's strange, too strange.
Logically speaking, the ninth floor cannot be empty. If there really is nothing, why would there still be a ninth floor? There must be some mystery inside this ninth floor, or perhaps the things on this ninth floor are hidden?
"Little guy, look at the wall." The words of his ancestors came from his mind, Yun Feng raised his eyes and looked over. The walls on all four sides of the square were made of black stones, with a smooth surface without any damage. It could also be seen that this place seemed to have no one coming before. Yun Feng walked slowly while observing carefully, after walking around in a circle, he finally found something special.
On the walls surrounding the square, in seven different directions, there are seven very special marks: flames, leaves, water droplets, lightning, small mountain peaks, sun, and skulls. At first glance, these seven special marks don't seem particularly special, but upon closer inspection, they're quite eye-catching.
Yun Feng understood at a glance, these seven special marks precisely represent the power of seven different elements, each corresponding to one another. These seven marks carved on the wall must have their uses and cannot be just decorations.
Yun Feng slowly closed her eyes, and Lan Yi quietly watched her with deep approval in his blue eyes. Spiritual energy slowly overflowed from Yun Feng's body, and as it permeated the space, she discovered that the elemental energy in this space was abnormally dense!
Her heart skipped a beat, Yun Feng's spiritual energy and the five elemental forces she could see communicated intimately, slowly seeping into each other. Yun Feng suddenly opened her eyes, staring at the flame mark, her spiritual energy carrying the fire element surged up, slowly covering the flame mark.
If she's right, this is the key to unlocking the ninth level secret!
"Hum!" The flame mark emitted a faint hum, and the flame mark covered by the fire element suddenly burst into bright light, completely ignited!
Yun Feng's eyes lit up, and by analogy, the symbols of leaves, water droplets, lightning, and small mountain peaks were lit up one by one! On a ring-shaped wall, five illuminated marks shone brightly, looking great for a moment! At this time, the positions of the seven marks suddenly changed, and the five illuminated marks occupied the five corners of the square. Suddenly, five colorful light pillars burst out from those five marks, shining on the wide central square!
Yun Feng narrowed her eyes, gazing at the scene before her. After five colorful beams of light shone down, they suddenly vanished, and the previously illuminated marks returned to darkness. The only difference was that a circular magic array appeared in the center of the vast square on the ninth floor. The array emitted tiny sparks, and as Yun Feng looked at it, she felt a sudden movement in her heart, as if something was silently calling out to her.
With a thought, the green light transformed into a green light and flew into the contract ring. The meatball on Yun Feng's shoulder moved closer to his body, and the small body leaned against Yun Feng's cheek, slightly nodding.
Yun Feng stepped into the transmission array, she didn't know where this transmission array would send her, but she knew that the person who set up this transmission array would never harm her.
Yun Feng stood in the transmission array, and the transmission array suddenly burst out with dazzling light. Then, Yun Feng's body instantly disappeared from the ninth floor, and the law array also disappeared afterwards. The ninth floor was still quiet and silent, as if no one had arrived here.
The body seems to be shuttling in a seam, Yun Feng Ping Qi Ning Shen, the mind dare not have any idle drifting, preparing for any sudden situation that may occur, the body is always in an extremely tense state.
This state lasted for a while, and her body was still being pulled apart. Yun Feng even felt that her spirit was about to be torn away. Suddenly, she bit down on her lip with her teeth, using the pain to keep her mind clear. Finally, just when she thought she couldn't hold on anymore, and her spirit was about to leave her body, all the tearing and pulling had completely disappeared.
"Latecomer, congratulations on making it this far, the tenth floor of the Dragon's Temple."
A voice sounded in Yun Feng's ear, and Yun Feng's mind was shocked. The tenth floor? Does the Dragon Temple have a tenth floor? After a dazzling light, a brand new space appeared before Yun Feng's eyes.
This is a narrow space of only a dozen or so square meters, but this space has more than ten stone tables, and on the surface of the stone tables are placed all sorts of things, and around these things there is a faint halo.
Yun Feng's gaze swept past, and there were more than a dozen things that had everything she needed. She hadn't even had time to take a closer look when the voice sounded again.
"Later generations, upon reaching the tenth floor of the Dragon's Temple, will also represent that you have passed some of the tests I gave you, met some of my requirements, and are qualified to inherit some things from me."
Yun Feng gazed at the objects arranged on the stone table. Who was the owner of this mysterious voice? Could it be that... Summoner Lord?
The voice continued, "Among these dozens of stone tables, there is a book of illustrations that records various magical beasts' data, along with pictures and explanations. There is also a geographical record that documents the customs and geography of every place on the vast continent, as well as detailed map data."
Yun Feng had heard enough to be completely certain that the owner of this voice was undoubtedly that summoner!
"One hundred top-grade ores and one thousand high-grade ores, all stored in a storage ring."
Yun Feng's black eyes widened slightly, one hundred top-grade ores! My god, one thousand high-grade ores! This summoner is really too wealthy!
"One Exalted Beast Core, five Sovereign Beast Cores, fifty Dominant Beast Cores, one hundred ninth-grade Beast Cores, two hundred eighth-grade Beast Cores, three hundred seventh-grade Beast Cores. All of these cores are stored in the storage ring."
Yun Feng heard this, his body slightly trembled. Indeed, it was a big move, truly an unparalleled big move. The lowest level of magic beast crystal core was actually seventh grade, and there were three hundred! Moreover, the monarch-level magic beast crystal cores had five! And there was even a revered-level magic beast!
Just how powerful is this summoner, that he can even slay a majestic beast of the Honored tier with his own two hands?
"Wow, this is incredible... truly incredible... Our ancestors were also shocked beyond words. With such a rich treasure, even if we just put one 7th-level magic beast core on the market, it would cause a huge stir. If a Supreme-level magic beast core were to appear, what kind of scene would that be?"
However, Yun Feng knew that she wouldn't be foolish enough to let everyone know about the existence of a Lord-level magic core. She understood the principle of "an innocent commoner is not guilty, but one who possesses treasure will be punished". If others were to find out that she possessed a Lord-level magic beast, not just humans, but even magical beasts would hunt her down relentlessly.
Her gaze swept over the two rings, and Yun Feng knew this wasn't over yet...
"Now that I've said this, you must be surprised. Later generations, if you want to obtain my things, then kneel down and kowtow three times to me, and sincerely call out 'Master'."
Yun Feng smiled and asked, "Is this summoner also a person who values rules so much?" In his heart, he had always respected the summoner who could contract with the dragon tribe. Yun Feng also respectfully knelt on the ground, knocking his head three times, and loudly shouted towards a certain position in space, "Master is above, disciple has paid respects!"
"Good! If you hadn't kowtowed just now or if your words and heart weren't as one, you would have been thrown out of the Dragon Hall and never allowed to enter again. You young man are indeed sincere, and my disciple is also quite good."
Yun Feng smiled and stood up from the ground, as a fellow summoner, he also had a great deal of admiration and yearning for this summoner, just like his ancestors. However, now his ancestors were also very interested in and highly evaluated this summoner, and they were delighted that Yun Feng could inherit such a person's legacy.
"Ling Yi was the gift I gave to my apprentice, I don't know if you've received it." The voice rose with a hint of laughter, Yun Feng nodded, naturally knowing that this voice couldn't be conversing with himself, everything might just be a lingering thought left behind by that summoner senior.
"The rings of ore and magic core, you can take them away." As soon as the voice finished speaking, the faint halos surrounding the two rings all disappeared. Yun Feng walked forward and put the two rings into his own hands.
"As for other things, it's pointless to say more with your current abilities. Wait until your powers break through to a certain level, and I will naturally give them to you."
Yun Feng nodded, if his own strength couldn't be brought out to its original level, it was better not to use it. When his strength improved to that level again, it wouldn't be too late to use it then.
"What I'm telling you now is that everything in this Dragon Hall belongs to me, not the dragon clan." The voice sounded, and Yun Feng was taken aback. What? This Dragon Hall is something owned by this summoner?
"Because of the good relationship with the dragon ancestors and also because it had accompanied them for many years, the master left this Dragon Temple in the hands of the dragon tribe, but added various restrictions, only allowing each member of the dragon tribe to take one thing from inside."
Yun Feng suddenly realized, and also somewhat understood. No wonder there were these strange rules, no wonder the ninth floor was like this. If Yan Yu and Xiao Ling had managed to come to the ninth floor by luck, they would have been completely bewildered too.
"Now you are unexpectedly the apprentice of the master, this Dragon Temple naturally has an owner. Once you successfully refine the Dragon Temple, the stone that opens the Dragon Temple will naturally lose its effect."
Yun Feng nodded, wanting to refine the Dragon Temple was naturally not an easy thing, and it was estimated that with her current strength, it was fundamentally impossible to refine.
"The Tulu and Dizhi are in your hands, which will be of great benefit to your future cultivation." The voice faded away, and the halo around the two books also slowly disappeared. Yun Feng walked over, carefully putting them away. With this summoner's seniority and insight, it was a huge fortune!
"As for other things, let's put them aside for now. Entering here means that the dragon tribe and you are on good terms, and it also tells you some information about your master. Now, what your master wants to tell you is that your master has not died."
Yun Feng's heart suddenly moved, he didn't die! Her master hadn't died after all!
"As a teacher, in those years, with a passionate heart, I wanted to subdue the fantasy beast. Indeed, I was seriously injured, but it was due to being ambushed by someone. Although my life is no longer in danger, I have been imprisoned."
Yun Feng's black eyes suddenly narrowed, Master was actually ambushed? It seems that the person who dared to ambush Master is also not a small character... Master was actually imprisoned, what is the reason for this? It must be because Master still has some use value for these people!
"Take this jade pendant." The light halo dissipated once more, and a pure white jade pendant flew towards Yun Feng, who suddenly grasped it, holding it in the palm of his hand. A chill spread from his palm, while the surface of the jade pendant shone with a faint glow.
"Disciple, Master has been trapped for an unknown period of time and doesn't know if these things can find a suitable successor. Since you've arrived at this place, it's considered a blessing for our master-disciple relationship. If you don't have the ability, Master won't force you to take this risk. If you have the ability and the heart, as long as you can activate the jade pendant, you'll be able to contact Master."
Yun Feng clenched the jade pendant in her palm, and heard the deep helplessness and sorrow in her master's words. How long had he been imprisoned? Was it over a thousand years? And yet, until now, no one had been able to set foot here, except for her!
The master is suffering and being tormented in some unknown place, and since she has accepted the legacy he has given her, since she has called him Master, she should take on this responsibility, she should bear this moral obligation, she should live up to this legacy!
"Master, please be at ease, Yun Feng will definitely work hard to cultivate and rescue you, it's certain!"
"After entering, the only way out is through the law array." The voice sounded again, and Yun Feng saw a law array appear in one corner of the space, emitting a faint glow. Yun Feng didn't go over because she knew things couldn't be that simple.
"Qualifying as my apprentice won't be a problem, and you can't have an arrogant personality either. So just stay here and focus on your practice. The formation will only open when you reach the Unity level, so take care of yourself."
The voice stopped and never sounded again. Yun Feng shook her head helplessly, a commander-level... It seemed she would have to stay here for quite some time.
