# Chapter 800: Heavenly Fate Hard to Predict

"Roar..." Huangfu Long let out a furious roar, seemingly not yet satisfied, as he hoisted his axe and prepared to pursue the three figures fleeing into the distance.

"Great Pest." Lin Feng called out, causing Huangfu Long's body to halt. He turned back to look at Lin Feng and asked, "Not chasing?"

"No need. Perhaps we'll meet again." Lin Feng shook his head. Ao Jiao and Huang Feng were the young generation leaders of the East Sea Dragon Palace and the Jade Heaven Royal Clan respectively—how could they lack life-saving treasures? Watching the three of them flee in disarray, their bodies bearing scorched wounds, Lin Feng felt a surge of satisfaction. It was a pity he couldn't have slain them on the spot; that would have been truly satisfying.

Taking out Rejuvenation Pills, Lin Feng distributed them among the group. The four of them swallowed the pills, and sure enough, they immediately felt their surging true essence power rapidly recovering, causing a sharp glint to flash through their eyes. What formidable pills! Jun Moxi and Yun Feiyang knew that back on the stage of the Snow Domain Grand Competition, Lin Feng seemed to have used similar pills during his decisive battle.

"Lin Feng, that Destruction Black Lotus of yours is becoming more and more terrifying. If I were to face it, I'm afraid I'd be burned to death in an instant." Jun Moxi shook his head with a wry smile. This guy's trump cards were truly horrifying.

"Indeed. Even with this ancient bell, I would still die." Yun Feiyang nodded in agreement. When that Destruction Black Lotus bloomed earlier, they both felt a heart-shaking terror. It was too terrifying. That destructive feeling was simply unstoppable. Even Ao Jiao's Dragon Shadow Shield and Huang Feng's vast imperial aura had been broken through, nearly being engulfed by the flames.

"Hehe, what are you arguing about? Lin Feng won't burn you." Huangfu Long said with a simple-minded grin, causing Jun Moxi and Yun Feiyang to reveal smiles as well. The stronger Lin Feng's flames were, the better. Now that the four of them were working together, who could contend with them in this secret realm? Unless those powerful leaders of major forces united many people to deal with them all at once.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth. He glanced at the blood pool. A splashing sound rang out as Tang Youyou's body rushed out from the blood pool, a trace of blood light flowing over her body.

"Youyou, how do you feel?" Lin Feng asked Tang Youyou. Having undergone the baptism of the blood pool himself, he felt that the power within his body had grown stronger, his physical body further refined. Now, even without using true essence power, relying solely on pure physical strength, he could blast to death those at the Eighth Layer of Profound Martial Realm. If he added the Nine Revolutions Buddha-Demon Art's power, ordinary Ninth Layer Profound Martial Realm cultivators would be killed without exception. Moreover, his martial soul had undergone further transformation. He believed that if he encountered another great opportunity, the Heaven Devouring Martial Soul would reach great perfection.

"My constitution isn't very suitable, but I still feel that my physical body has grown much stronger." Tang Youyou pondered for a moment before speaking to Lin Feng.

"It's already good to have a stronger physical body. Ordinary attacks won't easily cause damage." Lin Feng smiled. The bloodline power in this blood pool was originally meant for the Great Pest. The fact that he had gained tremendous benefits was due to his martial soul, which was already quite remarkable. Not everyone could undergo transformation.

"At the bottom of the blood pool, I also found this." Tang Youyou's hand produced a dazzling golden light, causing Lin Feng's pupils to contract sharply. The eyes of the others also focused.

In Tang Youyou's hand was a large golden scale, emanating a heart-shaking aura.

"This is... a Dragon Scale!"

Lin Feng's eyes showed surprise. A single scale, yet its aura was so profound, its luster brilliant, as if it had been peeled from an ancient divine dragon.

"It seems to be. Perhaps it was a treasure obtained by that senior in the past." Tang Youyou said. Lin Feng was deeply astonished. This was a Dragon Scale. In his previous life, dragons belonged only to legendary totems. In this world, there were countless strange beasts. Perhaps one day, he would truly see a real dragon.

"Great Pest, this belongs to you." Tang Youyou tossed the Dragon Scale to Huangfu Long. Huangfu Long caught it, examined it briefly, then grinned and said, "This thing seems to contain very strong energy, but on me, it's just a piece of scrap metal. I might lose it someday. Lin Feng, I'll give it to you. Maybe you'll find a use for it one day."

Lin Feng was startled. He caught the Dragon Scale that Huangfu Long threw over, casually glanced at it, then stored it away with a thought, not paying it much attention. Just as Huangfu Long said, although the Dragon Scale contained surging energy, if it couldn't be used, it was useless.

"Great Pest, what do you plan to do with this blood pool?" Lin Feng asked again. The owner of this blood pool shared the same bloodline as the Great Pest—perhaps it was his ancestor. Naturally, he should decide how to handle it.

"There's still some energy inside. That old fellow from who knows how many years ago used his bloodline power to form this blood pool. We can't let it go to waste. Let's leave it here and let all its energy be fully utilized." Huangfu Long said thoughtfully. Lin Feng nodded, having no objections. The Great Pest was easygoing and could see through everything.

"It seems we've found three of the Supreme Venerable's mansions. Now, there's just one last mansion left."

Lin Feng spoke. There was no news about the Emperor's tomb at all. Since they knew this space contained four Supreme Venerable mansions, they should excavate all of them.

"Look over there." At this moment, Tang Youyou's gaze turned toward the direction behind Lin Feng, her eyes showing surprise.

Lin Feng and the others turned their eyes. In the direction Tang Youyou pointed, beams of starlight shot into the sky, extremely dazzling.

"Seven Luminaries Stars?" Lin Feng's brows furrowed. Could it be Yu Tianji? With such strong stellar power, among the people Lin Feng knew, only Yu Tianji might possess such ability.

Had Yu Tianji discovered something?

"Let's go take a look." Lin Feng stepped forward, flickering toward the place where the starlight bloomed. The others immediately followed.

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet..." Huangfu Long muttered from behind, but it seemed everyone had already gone far, causing him to grumble in frustration: "If the four Supreme Venerable mansions are all found out, using the method that old ghost taught me, we might be able to find the Emperor's tomb. I just don't know if it's real or fake."

With that, Huangfu Long's figure flickered as he followed closely behind, a huge axe resting on his shoulder, excitement shining in his eyes. How majestic it was to carry this axe on his shoulder!

At this moment, in another direction, Yu Tianji stood at the exit of an underground palace, sweeping his gaze over several corpses on the ground, the starlight in his eyes vast and dazzling.

Turning around, Yu Tianji bowed slightly toward the exit of the underground palace and murmured softly: "Yu Tianji is truly fortunate to have obtained the senior's opportunity. I will continue walking along my own path all the way."

With that, Yu Tianji stomped heavily on the ground. Starlight flowed, and the earth seemed to shift. That underground palace was gradually buried, perhaps never to appear in the mortal world again.

Raising his head, Yu Tianji looked at the fading starlight and whispered: "I have always believed in the existence of fate. A thousand years later, we enter this secret realm after our predecessors, yet we have excavated the four Supreme Venerable mansions that were never revealed before. Isn't this destined by the unseen? The four Supreme Venerable tombs all have inheritors now. Surely the true Emperor's tomb will also appear. To whom will its inheritance belong?"

Yu Tianji truly wished to peer into the secrets of fate, but he could not yet do so. That which was ordained by heaven—let alone him, a mere Mysterious Martial Realm cultivator—even a true Emperor might not be able to predict it. Otherwise, how could Emperors be immortal and undying? And how would this Emperor's tomb exist?

Taking out his star disk, Yu Tianji held it in his hand. Although he could not predict fate, the stellar arts held other mysteries. At the very least, he could predict the approximate location of the Emperor's tomb.

The light of the Big Dipper shone upon the star disk. Seven beams of light continuously rotated, with four of them descending upon four directions—the locations of the four Supreme Venerable mansions.

The other three beams of light were ethereal and elusive, actually beginning to rotate, causing Yu Tianji's gaze to freeze. The stellar power within his body continuously surged into the star disk, driving the Big Dipper's starlight.

"Bang..." A soft sound rang out. Yu Tianji's eyes stiffened. The star disk in his hand had shattered!

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Yu Tianji's figure flickered. Now, he could only rely on luck. With the four Supreme Venerable mansions appearing, Yu Tianji firmly believed that this time, the Emperor's tomb would surely manifest—and it would not be long!

PS: Everyone still has fresh flowers, huh? Sigh, the last two days, brothers, why are you still holding onto them!
