Chapter 544 - The Outlawed Sky-prides Appear, Splitting The Spiritual Qi Leyline
The sudden emergence of the Spiritual Qi Leyline had shocked many in the Enchanted Forest Realm.
The cultivators soon descended into a manic state.
There were a lot of them.
There were so many treasures within the grounds that they could not retain their composers.
“Oh heavens, such an abundance of treasures! I’d be rich if I could just get my hands on a couple of them!”
“That’s right! Let’s get it!”
“That’s the Primordial Blood Spirit Fruit, an Emperor-grade Supreme Elixir! That one’s mine.”
The cultivators immediately swarmed into the Spiritual Qi Leyline.
Just then, a red silhouette appeared above the Spiritual Qi Leyline and unleashed a blast of devastating aura. It was none other than the outlawed sky-pride of the Bai clan, Bai Hongyu!
With her cold, gleaming eyes, Bai Hongyu muttered, “Everything within eight hundred kilometers belongs to me. Those who dare trespass shall face death!”
Bai Hongyu released a palm technique as she uttered her threats.
One of the unfortunate cultivators who got caught in her aura’s radius was instantly reduced into blood mist.
The abrupt escalation of events shocked many.
“This Bai Hongyu is one cocky person.”
“Nothing new here. She’s an outlawed sky-pride, so she naturally has the guts to talk that way.”
“The few of us aren’t strong enough to defeat an outlawed sky-pride. Let’s just head to another location.”
“That’s right.”
No one dared to provoke Bai Hongyu after the dramatic event.
After all, the leyline spanned over a massive region. There were still many unoccupied territories that were outside of Bai Hongyu’s grasp.
However, now that Bai Hongyu had made the first move, how could the rest of the outlawed sky-prides just stand by and watch?
A sword ray suddenly shot up into the sky.
The sword rays dispersed over the region, and its intimidating Sword-based Daoist Rhyme spread eight hundred kilometers across.
“Every land within eight hundred kilometers is my territory. Trespass and you shall die!”
It was the Sword Daoist’s voice. He stood determinedly in the air as his sword qi overwhelmed his surroundings. No one dared challenge his presence.
“D*mn it. Now the Sword Daoist’s here too.”
“There’s more.”
After the Sword Daoist made his move, a multicolored array of energy erupted in the distance, forming a light barrier that encompassed a thousand kilometers in diameter.
The light barrier spun with the Five Ways energy of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Soil.
A stellar young man in white robes appeared. His spiritual powers formed a large domineering ripple that painted him as an incarnate of a living deity!
“The Wang clan is taking everything within a thousand kilometers from here.”
The white-robed youngster spoke indifferently. His determined gaze and overpowering aura were as strong as those of the Sword Daoist and Bai Hongyu.
Wang Quan!
The outlawed sky-pride of the Wang clan!
“Haha. Now that all of you have shown yourselves, it’s time I join the party too.”
Dark clouds gathered in the sky, followed by the descent of a terrifying demonic qi that engulfed everything in a thousand kilometers!
The terrifying demonic aura made it hard for anyone to breathe.
A masculine youngster in jet-black armor gradually descended from the dark clouds.
As his feet touched the ground, the earth crumbled!
“This thousand-kilometers belong to my demonic tribe! Enter and you will die!”
The assertive youngster glanced at his surroundings. There was a thick presence of demonic qi behind him, creating the illusion that a million demonic beasts were howling in unison.
He was the outlawed sky-pride of the Underworld Demonic Realm, Touheng!
Touheng was accompanied by a sky-pride who also came from the Demonic Realm. It was Touba, a sky-pride who had once made it onto the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.
“Roar!”
A furious screech echoed, its terrorizing soundwave rumbling everything within a thousand-kilometers radius.
An enormous nine-headed serpent emerged from the woods. Everything around the creature was either combusted into ashes or swept away by a violent flood.
The sky-prides immediately gasped at the sight of that creature.
“It’s him, Jiu Yan of the Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe!”
“Even the outlawed sky-pride of the archaic bestial clan’s here.”
“Jiu Yan’s abilities are considered one of the most terrifying even amongst the outlawed sky-prides. It seems like even he could not resist the Spiritual Qi Leyline’s attraction.”
Never mind the ordinary sky-prides. Even the outlawed sky-prides were wary of Jiu Yan.
The archaic bestial clans were a formidable force.
Due to their strengths, there had never been many such beasts around. However, each of them was a respectable entity of its own.
What more, Jiu Yan was the most stellar sky-pride of the Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe.
“I’m taking everything within one thousand and five hundred kilometers. Lay your hands upon those treasures, and I shall swallow you into my belly!”
Jiu Yan’s centermost head spoke while the rest glared across their surroundings. Those who were unfortunate to cross eyes with him could feel a chilling numbness down their spine.
The cultivators were wary enough of the other outlawed sky-prides. There was no way they would mess with an archaic beast like Jiu Yan.
Bai Hongyu, the Sword Daoist, Wang Quan, Touheng, and Jiu Yan had taken half of the Spiritual Qi Leyline. Some of the other remarkable sky-prides, despite not being as strong as their outlawed counterparts, had also mimicked their behaviors and went on to occupy smaller pieces of their territories.
Some spanned less than ten kilometers across, while others a couple of dozens. Most of the Spiritual Qi Leyline had been divided into smaller segments, which left little to no room for the ordinary sky-prides.
However, no one was willing to leave after witnessing the abundance of treasures.
“Hmph. What gives these sky-prides the right to hoard everything to themselves? Let’s gang up on them. I’m sure we can overpower these people.”
“That’s right! The outlawed sky-prides may be too strong for us, but not those people.”
“Hear hear! We shall not let them have their ways!”
Dissatisfied with the situation, most of the left-out sky-prides began to assemble against those who attempted to hoard the treasures.
Soon, battles broke out across the leyline.
Fortunately for the outlawed sky-prides, no one dared to challenge their authority.
The outlawed sky-prides were viewed as vastly superior beings compared to the others. While the ordinary sky-prides may be able to defeat the excellent ones by outnumbering them, they knew better than to provoke the outlawed sky-prides, whose powers may rival that of a Boundary Emperor.
“It looks like there’s quite a party going on there.”
Jiu Yan sneered at a group of sky-prides who were battling over a Supreme Elixir.
There were easily hundreds of those within the territory that Jiu Yan laid claim over.
“Let’s start storing these Supreme Elixirs.”
Bai Hongyu said to Xiao Jingchen. He was busy looking out to his surroundings, as if he was on the look for something.
“What are you looking for?”
“I’m looking for one particular person. I wonder if that b*stard will make an appearance.”
Xiao Jingchen replied.
Bai Hongyu frowned. She knew immediately who Xiao Jingchen was talking about.
Not far away, Touba was scanning the perimeter as well.
“This is such a huge Opportunity of Fortune. Don’t Chu Kuangren want it?” Touba frowned and muttered.
“Is Chu Kuangren the Supreme Sage you mentioned? Touba, you seem to worry about that person a lot.”
Touheng came over and said nonchalantly.
“Brother, never underestimate this person. The Demonic Realm’s plan to invade Firmament Star was curbed because of this one person. If I weren’t fortunate enough to escape in time, I would’ve been part of the corpse pile lying in the Purgatory Forest,” said Touba gravely. He harbored a deep sense of fear towards Chu Kuangren.
“Alright. Let’s discuss it after we store these Supreme Elixirs.”
“Okay.”
Touba nodded and began to collect the Supreme Elixirs and spirit fruits in their territory.
Then, a violent storm ensued, bringing with it an overwhelming aura that swept through the entire Spiritual Qi Leyline!
