World's Strongest Martial Warrior

1"Could this really be a scheme orchestrated by Liu Qingyi and the others?" Mo Hu was taken aback, his mind swirling with confusion. The key to the ruins was supposed to allow only ten people to enter at a time. If this was indeed a trap set by Liu Qingyi's group, then how did the young couple manage to get in earlier? Was it possible that the Qing Yuan Chamber of Commerce had deceived them, and that the ruins could actually admit more than ten people once opened?    

    

Despite these doubts, they had traveled from Qing Yuan State City, tailing Liu Qingyi's party closely. It seemed almost certain that Liu Qingyi's group consisted of only five individuals, with no additional members.    

    

"I'm not convinced," Mo Hu mused. "I've encountered Adan Weaver Hao before. He's truly a prodigy who has overcome the tribulation within the Tai Yi Immortal Sect."    

    

At that moment, the Nether River interjected, "If that's the case... did the Taiyi Immortal Sect's people really make it inside?"    

    

With a spark in his eyes and no hesitation, Mo Hushuang declared, "Let's proceed and follow them." The Taiyi Immortal Sect was a formidable force, and the contingent they sent to the Sky Feather Daoist Sect's ruins would undoubtedly be strong.    

    

Black Tiger was confident that Liu Qingyi wouldn't dare to betray them now. After all, their most formidable adversary at present was the Taiyi Immortal Sect. If they failed to overcome the sect's members, they likely wouldn't be able to claim the Immortal Destiny left by Daoist Tian Yu.    

    

...    

    

Guided by Adan Weaver and Hao, Peter Parker and his companions navigated the labyrinth of ruins. After half a day's journey, they reached an expansive mountain range teeming with peril. The area was rife with Demonic Beasts and flying creatures, some of which possessed strength on par with the most powerful cultivators at the peak or even the Quasi-Mahayana Realm.    

    

However, for Peter Parker and his group, such dangers were hardly a concern. In no time at all, they found themselves at the edge of an enigmatic canyon. Intermittent, icy gales howled through the gorge, fierce enough to shred a Dao Integration Stage cultivator in an instant. Even those who had transcended tribulation would struggle to endure the storm for long.    

    

The Taiyi Immortal Sect had previously explored this enigmatic canyon and shared its details with all their members. Adan Weaver, guiding Peter Parker and their companions, navigated through the canyon via an unusual path, skillfully avoiding the ice storms that raged within.    

    

Before long, the group traversed the storm-ridden area and reached the heart of the canyon. There, a striking contrast greeted them—a deep green soil, a stark departure from the frosty landscape they had left behind. The area teemed with natural Yuan energy, a concentration tenfold that of any other place in the ruins, enveloping them in an ancient ambiance that seemed to transport them back to a bygone era.    

    

Peter Parker surveyed the surroundings. His gaze fell upon a vibrant forest, brimming with lush flora. Amidst the greenery were exotic flowers and plants, species extinct beyond this hidden sanctuary, all unfamiliar even to someone with Peter Parker's vast experience. Towering ancient trees, exuding a timeless essence, soared hundreds of meters into the sky.    

    

Thanks to the rich origin energy of heaven and earth here, every blade of grass and every tree transcended the ordinary, imbued with a touch of spirituality. These were precious finds for novice cultivators.    

    

However, for Peter Parker and his companions, who had all surpassed the Tribulation Passing stage, such wonders were of little consequence. They pressed on.    

    

Roughly an hour later, an imposing palace radiating with antiquity came into view. Peter Parker's keen vision could discern the fractured stone plaque above the palace gate, even from miles away. The plaque, several meters in length, bore two large characters etched in ancient script: "Tian Yu." Time had not dulled their presence; the characters remained as vivid and spirited as ever, untouched by decay.    

    

"So this is Tian Yu's cave?" Liu Qingyi, Mo Hu, and the others couldn't contain their excitement as they beheld the venerable structure before them.    

    

This was indeed the dwelling of a true immortal.    

    

Daoist Tian Yu was the final Immortal before the Immortal Path in the Immortal Universe was cut off. It was highly probable that he had discovered the secret to attaining immortality.    

    

In other words,    

    

Daoist Tian Yu's residence was likely imbued with genuine immortal destiny.    

    

Such a prospect was the stuff of dreams for countless cultivators in the Immortal Breaking Universe, where the path to immortality had been severed.    

    

"Let's go and take a look."    

    

Peter Parker inhaled deeply and marched toward the palace that lay before him.    

    

For Peter Parker and his companions, a journey of thousands of miles was a trivial matter.    

    

Within moments, they had closed the distance to less than a hundred miles from the palace.    

    

Upon closer inspection, the grandeur of the palace struck everyone with awe.    

    

Despite being Heaven Chosen and Quasi-Mahayana Realm cultivators, they felt insignificant in the shadow of the ancient structure.    

    

"Peter, where are the members of the Taiyi Immortal Sect?"    

    

Liu Qingyi regained her composure and scanned the area, but she found no sign of anyone from the Great Unity Immortal Sect, prompting her to ask in a concerned tone.    

    

"They must have already gone inside the palace."    

    

Peter Parker's gaze remained locked on the ancient edifice. He sensed numerous invisible formations weaving through the air around the palace.    

    

These formations were integrated with the palace itself, their might beyond comprehension.    

    

While time had rendered some formations ineffective, the majority remained operational. Entrapment within could spell doom for anyone, be they a Tribulation Transcender or a Quasi-Great Perfection cultivator.    

    

Indistinctly,    

    

Peter Parker detected five or six formidable presences clashing with the palace's defensive formations, likely belonging to the Great Unity Immortal Sect.    

    

Liu Qingyi's eyes gleamed with determination. "Then we should enter as well."    

    

Should the Immortal Destiny within Daoist Tian Yu's cave fall into the hands of the Great Unity Immortal Sect, their entire journey would be for naught.    

    

"Alright!"    

    

Peter Parker nodded affirmatively and made his way toward the entrance of the ancient palace.    

    

"Senior brother, what's our next move?"    

    

As Peter Parker and his companions stepped into the ancient palace, the girl clad in green from the Great Unity Immortal Sect leaned in to whisper to Adan Weaver Hao.    

    

"What else is there to do? Our powers have been sealed by that guy. All we can do is wait here."    

    

Adan Weaver Hao gave a wry smile and replied, "But... I've managed to find a way to signal Senior Brother Gu just now. I'm hoping he and the others are up to the task."    

    

Originally, his plan was to draw Peter Parker to this place by himself.    

    

Even as a matchless prodigy of the quasi Great Ekayāna Realm, Peter Parker would have struggled to take on the Great Unity Immortal Sect's group single-handedly.    

    

Yet, he hadn't anticipated Peter Parker would arrive with such a sizable group.    

    

Together, their combined strength was formidable. What's more, they boasted unparalleled talents from the quasi Mahayana Realm.    

    

Now, within these ruins, even if Senior Brother Gu were to rally the forces of the Great Unity Immortal Sect, overcoming this challenge might prove difficult.
