Chapter 586 - Nangong Huang Appears, We Don’t Welcome The Black Heaven Sect
The Ancient Lavish Cave was a location with countless Opportunities of Fortune within the Forbidden Barren Wasteland.
Rumor had it that before the Forbidden Wasteland was formed, it was home to some of the world’s earliest Emperors. One of them was known as the Lavish Emperor.
The Ancient Lavish Cave was once the residence of the Lavish Emperor.
The Lavish Emperor had laid countless seals throughout the trove, where multitudes of treasures would be produced from time to time.
Each time the Forbidden Barren Wasteland was opened, the Ancient Lavish Cave would attract many cultivators to visit.
An enormous stone wall that spanned several kilometers tall stood erected with many stone caves built on the surface. The caves seemed to be interconnected with one another like a formation as they seethed with a mysterious aura. Inside the caves, though, were filled with the presence of palpable spiritual powers.
The spiritual powers manifested as a layer of fog that clouded the vision from outside the ancient caves. However, from time to time, the cultivators could vaguely observe the glittering of treasures within those caves.
These were the Ancient Lavish Cave.
The Ancient Lavish Cave did not refer to one but all the caves built on the wall’s surface.
Many sky-prides had been gathering outside the stone wall.
Some of them arrived individually while others were in groups. Regardless, they were patiently waiting for the appearance of the ancient cave’s treasures.
“Looking at the time, the treasure surge of the Ancient Lavish Caves should happen anytime now.”
“Hmm, indeed. Once the spiritual powers of the Ancient Lavish Cave reach its peak, the treasures will emerge.”
“Hiss. Such a shame that the Ancient Lavish Cave is laden with seals. Otherwise, I would’ve gone in to take a look.”
“True…”
Swoosh…
A red light dashed in from the distance and revealed a lady in red armor within. It was none other than Bai Hongyu.
The cultivators were not surprised to see her.
After all, the outlawed sky-prides would not want to miss out on a huge opportunity like the Ancient Lavish Cave.
The sky-prides could not help but take a few steps back when Bai Hongyu arrived.
They knew they were no match for her once the treasures appeared. Luckily for them, there was more than one cave to go around. The stone wall was several dozens of kilometers long and covered with more than a thousand caves. There was no need to obsess over any particular cave and end up getting caught between the outlawed sky-prides.
After Bai Hongyu’s arrival, the other outlawed sky-prides gradually appeared as well.
The sky radiated with a colorful array as a cultivator descended on a five-colored light disc in a triumphant manner. His aura shook everybody present, as if a Holy God had arrived.
“Oh, it’s Wang Quan!”
Bai Hongyu squinted her eyes.
Rumble…
At that instance, the ground shook while the surrounding mountains trembled incessantly.
A single-horned brute with dark skin leaped forward. With each step he took, the earth shook under his weight.
It was Niu Dali, the outlawed sky-pride of the Bull Demon Tribe.
“Looks like the archaic beasts are here.”
The outlawed sky-prides made their entrances at the Ancient Lavish Cave.
Just then, a sword ray swooped into the scene, causing the cultivators’ swords to tremble uncontrollably in its presence.
It was as if the swords were worshipping the arrival of their king.
The swordsmen were surprised to see this phenomenon, to say the least.
“I know this sword ray. It’s him, the Sword Daoist!”
Upon its arrival, the sword ray transformed into a golden-robed youngster in the air. It was indeed the Sword Daoist!
The other outlawed sky-prides could almost sense the overbearing weight of his exceptional sword qi.
“What a powerful sword qi! Has he reached the level of a Top-notched Boundary Emperor? Besides, his Sword Dao must be at the Expert stage at least!”
“Looks like he’s gotten some decent Opportunities of Fortune in order to achieve such tremendous improvements.”
Bai Hongyu grasped onto her Fiery Dragon Phoenix Saber tightly as she looked at the Sword Daoist in disbelief.
Here she was thinking that she had acquired a decent chunk of Opportunities of Fortune. She did not expect the Sword Daoist to improve faster than her.
Boom!
A sudden surge of ferocious qi exploded between the mountain ranges.
The terrifying ferocious qi swarmed into the air to form an enormous dark figure, who let out a deafening battle roar that echoed through the firmament!
Many cultivators were affected by the intimidating ferocious qi battle intent and immediately lost control over their spiritual powers.
“Oh, heavens! Which outlawed sky-pride is it now?”
“Is this aura from the legendary Supreme Daoist Physique, the Infallible Tormented Physique?!”
“Who is it?”
The cultivators looked towards the source of the ferocious qi and saw a black-robed youngster gliding across the air to the Ancient Lavish Cave. His body was seething with thick ferocious qi, and his aura was no weaker than that of the Sword Daoist!
Bai Hongyu was shocked. “Oh, it’s Sha Wushe, the outlawed sky-pride of the Ferocious Tribe!”
The Ferocious Tribe was an archaic tribe of the Nine Heavens.
Just like Bai Hongyu, Sha Wushe was an outlawed sky-pride who hailed from the Nine Heavens.
“Looks like the fight over at the Ancient Lavish Cave is going to be interesting.”
The Sword Daoist crossed his arms and uttered softly as he stared at Sha Wushe with a hint of battle intent in his eyes.
In the Sword Daoist’s opinion, Sha Wushe was the most fitting opponent amongst all the sky-prides present at the scene.
After Sha Wushe’s arrival, another forbidden sky-pride made his entrance. It was Touheng of the demonic tribe.
Touheng’s aura was similarly domineering. It was evident that he, too, had his encounters with Opportunities of Fortune. However, Touheng was still a level weaker compared to the Sword Daoist.
In the crowd.
The cultivators lamented the increasing presence of the outlawed sky-prides.
“There sure are many sky-prides h in this era. Who knows who’ll ascend into the Emperor’s Throne in the end?”
“Such an unprecedented era.”
One of the cultivators was staring at the outlawed sky-prides with passion. He was dying for a challenge against them.
It was a sword-wielding youngster, whose eyes were shining with a pair of Yin and Yang light.
“I wonder if my capabilities are enough for me to handle these outlawed sky-prides.”
The sword-wielding youngster murmured.
He had the sudden urge to challenge one of the outlawed sky-prides to a duel.
However, he resisted the temptation as the youngster knew it was not the right time to do so.
“Eh, it’s you, Nangong Huang.”
Someone sounded surprised.
It was Touba, who had just noticed Nangong Huang within the crowd.
Nangong Huang was surprised too. He did not expect to be recognized.
“What is it, Touba? Do you know that person?”
Touheng asked Touba.
Touba nodded. “He’s from the Black Heaven Sect of Firmament Star, one of the sky-prides who made it to the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.”
Upon hearing this, the other cultivators’ gaze became indifferent and disinterested.
“It’s only a sky-pride from the outside world. What’s there to care about?”
“You’re right, but the fact that he’s from the Black Heaven Sect makes him special.”
Touba grinned and said, “The Black Heaven Sect Leader is none other than Chu Kuangren.”
Gasp…
The outlawed sky-prides immediately diverted their attention towards Nangong Huang.
“It’s Chu Kuangren’s disciple!”
“Hmph! How I hate hearing that name!”
The Sword Daoist, Wang Quan, and Bai Hongyu immediately stared at him with hostility.
Since they hated Chu Kuangren a lot, they were naturally not fond of anyone from the Black Heaven Sect.
“We don’t welcome the Black Heaven Sect here. Get lost!”
Bai Hongyu said firmly.
Nangong Huang had realized when Touba recognized him that the situation was not in his favor anymore. He was well familiar with how much trouble his Sect Leader had stirred outside in Emperor Road.
“The Ancient Lavish Cave doesn’t belong to you. You don’t have the right to lay claim over it.”
Nangong Huang’s ancient sword was trembling as he uttered calmly.
He had been wanting to test these outlawed sky-prides out, but he never thought that an opportunity would present itself so quickly.
