Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

The two of them had been lying in ambush here for several days, already knowing the terrain around Phoenix Cry Mountain like the back of their hands.

Therefore, they deliberately bypassed the front of the Immortal Devil Gate, and instead, from a blind spot on the left, stealthily flew over a bamboo courtyard.

This bamboo courtyard was covered with restrictions, preventing outsiders from clearly seeing the movements inside.

These two were quite strong, both having mid-stage Core Formation Realm cultivation. In addition, they had cloaks to conceal themselves. They had ventured all the way here without being noticed by anyone from the Immortal Devil Gate.

"Brother, do you think that kid named Chen Tian is hiding here?" After flying over the bamboo courtyard, the round-eyed cultivator frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

"According to my estimation, it's most likely here," the square-faced man nodded and said, "Look, the fallen leaves here are piled up layer upon layer, but no one has ever cleaned them. Even within a hundred-zhang radius, there isn't a single person to be seen. This shows that the status of this bamboo courtyard within the Immortal Devil Gate is extremely high. Ordinary disciples simply wouldn't dare to set foot here."

"But even so, we can't be sure that Chen Tian is inside," the round-eyed cultivator seemed to still have doubts, asking in confusion.

"Why are you so stupid!" Looking at the man's foolish appearance, the square-faced man glared at him unhappily, then lowered his voice and said, "Close your eyes and carefully sense what's here."

The round-eyed cultivator was obviously used to being scolded by the square-faced man, so he wasn't angry. He hurriedly followed his instructions, closed his eyes, released his spiritual sense, and scanned the seemingly ordinary bamboo courtyard.

After carefully sensing for a while, he seemed to notice something, suddenly opened his eyes, and exclaimed in horror, "It's spirit energy, such powerful spirit energy!"

The round-eyed cultivator finally realized that this small bamboo courtyard contained an extremely terrifying spirit energy, its concentration being thousands of times greater than the outside world!

He had never heard of such a rich spirit energy!

"Hehe, now you understand, right?" The square-faced man chuckled and said, "Didn't you ask me why I haven't made a move yet? The reason lies here!"

It turned out that when the two first arrived here, the square-faced man also wanted to immediately complete his mission and assassinate Chen Tian.

However, when he confirmed the location of Chen Tian, he was suddenly deeply frightened.

The square-faced man sensed that the bamboo courtyard where Chen Tian lived contained an extremely terrifying spirit energy, and it hadn't dissipated for several days.

In the past few days, he had been closely monitoring the bamboo courtyard, but what puzzled him was that the person living here hadn't come out a single step, and the concentration of spirit energy in the courtyard hadn't decreased at all.

Seeing such a strange scene, the square-faced man was repeatedly surprised and felt that something was wrong, so he didn't rush to attack, but instead lurked aside and watched from a distance.

"Brother, what do you think is going on?" At this time, after recovering from the shock, the round-eyed cultivator asked him in confusion.

"Although I also find it strange, after observing for so many days, I have come up with an idea," the square-faced man stared at the bamboo courtyard and said softly.

"Oh, what idea? Brother, stop beating around the bush and tell me," seeing his hesitant appearance, the round-eyed cultivator became a little impatient and hurriedly urged.

The square-faced man shook his head helplessly and explained, "This person has been mobilizing such a rich spirit energy for a long time. There are only two possible purposes: one is to break through in seclusion, and the other is to heal injuries in seclusion. However, I don't sense the aura of a powerful cultivator in this house, so I believe that this person must be hiding here to heal his injuries!"

"Huh? Brother, are you saying that Chen Tian is hiding here to heal his injuries?" After hearing this explanation, the round-eyed cultivator asked in surprise.

"Although I can't be 100% sure, it should be close," the square-faced man nodded and affirmed, "This person must have suffered a very serious injury, so he spends a lot of immortal crystals and elixirs every day to recuperate. That rich spirit energy is emitted from the immortal crystals and elixirs."

"Oh, if that's the case, isn't this a godsend?" The round-eyed cultivator rubbed his hands, looking extremely excited, "Chen Tian's cultivation is only at the early stage of the Core Formation Realm, and he's seriously injured now. If we want to kill him, it's simply a piece of cake."

"That's true, but we can't be too careless," although the square-faced man was also secretly happy, he couldn't help but remind him.

"Hehe, brother, you're good at everything, but you have one flaw: you're too cautious! How about this, you stand aside and watch me kill him alone!"

Faced with the square-faced man's reminder, the round-eyed cultivator didn't take it to heart at all. He only felt that Chen Tian was seriously injured, so what could he do?

After a sinister look appeared on his face, he walked towards the bamboo courtyard.

Although the square-faced man still had a trace of worry, seeing that he had already taken action, he didn't say anything and waited quietly to keep watch for him.

After saying that, the round-eyed cultivator's eyes sank, and then his whole body's spirit energy surged, continuously pouring into the huge heavy hammer in his hand.

Soon, the heavy hammer, which was already very huge, began to expand and grow, eventually becoming like a small mountain.

Holding this heavy hammer, a fierce murderous aura rose in the round-eyed cultivator's eyes. After shouting loudly, he waved the heavy hammer and smashed it down on the room where Chen Tian was!

"Rumble!"

The heavy hammer waved in the air, bursting out a sound similar to thunder, carrying a force of ten thousand jun, and fell down violently.

This strike was really fierce. It's not hard to imagine that after the heavy hammer landed, this bamboo house, along with Chen Tian inside, would be crushed into pieces.

"Only I can kill this person, you… all of you get out of my way!"

However, just as the heavy hammer was about to smash onto the roof of the bamboo house, a voice containing violent anger exploded from a distance. Immediately afterwards, a terrifying force, like a hurricane, howled over!
