"Brother, what are you grinning about?"
Seeing that her sarcasm had not only failed to anger Luo Dali but had actually put him in high spirits, Luo Xiaofeng was thoroughly confused.
"I told you my benefactor's strength was extraordinary. See? Even that waterfall couldn't measure his cultivation. Was I wrong or what?"
"Sis, just you wait. Once my benefactor makes his move, our family is absolutely going to be saved."
Luo Dali said, looking enormously pleased with himself.
"You... you're truly hopeless." Luo Xiaofeng wore an expression of complete exasperation.
Chu Feng's cultivation had already been tested, yet here her brother was, saying things like this and still expecting Chu Feng to save them. She felt her brother was simply deceiving himself.
Afterward, everyone passed through the waterfall one by one. Among those who came later, two more had concealed their true cultivation.
One was a Fifth Rank True Immortal, and the other a Sixth Rank True Immortal. Unsurprisingly, the moment their true cultivation was exposed, they were immediately slain by the Beast Bandits hidden deep within the cavern.
Once everyone had passed through the waterfall, Chu Feng and the others were finally able to press deeper into the cave.
Before long, they entered a region wreathed in mist, and within it, Chu Feng spotted eight Beast Bandits.
All eight possessed cultivation at the Ninth Rank True Immortal level.
But before stepping into this misty area, Chu Feng had been completely unable to sense the presence of these eight Beast Bandits.
It stood to reason that they were the ones who had killed those who had concealed their cultivation.
Before long, Chu Feng and the others emerged from the cave, then passed through a lake, crossed a river, descended into an underground passage, and wound through multiple locations — a grueling journey that took a full two days and two nights.
At each stop, numerous testing formations were deployed to evaluate the strength of Chu Feng and his companions.
After being put through all of that, Chu Feng found himself marveling inwardly: although the Beast Bandit tribe's raw strength was nothing impressive, the methods they wielded and the vigilance they maintained were truly remarkable.
No wonder they had managed to endure in the Grand Azure Upper Realm for so long despite their weakness.
Everything they relied upon came down to these formidable formations and a wariness that never once faltered.
In the end, however, Chu Feng and the others successfully made it into the Beast Bandit tribe's lair.
It was another range of mountains that, on the surface, appeared utterly unremarkable. But as they kept walking, they suddenly found themselves in an entirely different world.
It was a vast palace complex, and the architectural style was nothing short of magnificent — resplendent and golden, blazing with brilliant light. Even the stone slabs paving the ground were gold.
Sunlight streamed down, and golden light glittered everywhere.
Moreover, the place was teeming with members of the Beast Bandit tribe. A rough estimate put their numbers at no fewer than three million.
Among them, there were no shortage of powerful individuals, and there even existed Heavenly Immortal Realm experts.
Chu Feng knew that he had most likely successfully infiltrated the Beast Bandits' lair.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be so many Beast Bandits.
"Chu Feng, don't rush. Confirm first before making your move."
Chu Youyuan sent him a secret voice transmission.
In truth, even without Chu Youyuan's reminder, Chu Feng would not act immediately—he still needed to observe a bit more.
