Chapter 311 - 311 290 Cross This Line and Die
Chapter 311: Chapter 290: Cross This Line, and Die! Chapter 311: Chapter 290: Cross This Line, and Die! Apart from that, from the sensing of the Primordial Void Order in his hand, there was also an old man with white hair wearing a Daoist robe, and an ordinary-looking man in green holding a Primordial Void Order.
Huang Yi took a look around and transmitted his voice to Chen Yuan, saying that the white-haired old Daoist was the Sect Master of a power in Jiuyuan Prefecture, and his strength was above him; as for the other ordinary-looking man, he didn’t recognize him.
In this way, including him and Huang Yi, there were already seven people present who held Primordial Void Orders.
According to Su Ziyue, generally each time the Primordial Void Realm is opened, there are about ten people, not many more, not many less.
Thinking this way, it was estimated that there were still others hidden among the crowd, just too far away to be sensed.
This was very normal; after all, the other seven above were all eyeing them covetously, and without some real skills, one wouldn’t dare to reveal that they possessed a Primordial Void Order.
And that white-haired old Daoist’s Primordial Void Order was snatched from someone else’s hand, even pinning the other person with the infamous title of evil demon, as if only in this way could his actions be deemed justified.
“Brother Huang, this must be the famous Demon Sword Chen Yuan, right?” While he was pondering, a figure slowly approached from the void, dressed in a long coat of dark black.
His hair was tied up, holding a long spear, with a square face and large eyes complemented by thick eyebrows, he looked exceptionally valiant.
“Capital Commandant Ruan, this is indeed Chen Yuan.”
Huang Yi continued to introduce to Chen Yuan: “Chen Yuan, this is Ruan Qi’an, the Capital Commandant responsible for the military preparedness of Jiuyuan Prefecture.”
“I have long heard of Demon Sword’s great reputation; Chen Yuan truly is extraordinary,” Ruan Qi’an laughed heartily.
“I, too, have heard much about Capital Commandant Ruan.” Chen Yuan greeted him warmly with a cupped fist salute.
“Old Huang, you’re really lucky to have obtained a Primordial Void Order from Chen Yuan,” Ruan Qi’an sighed.
“Brother Ruan, the Primordial Void Realm hasn’t opened yet, there are still opportunities,” Huang Yi said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, his gaze then shifted to Gu Hao and a few others, making his implications clear.
“This… Would the two of you be willing to assist me? If we succeed, I will certainly not stint on rewards afterward,” said Ruan Qi’an, following the conversation.
This was his goal, having planned on seeking their help as soon as he saw Chen Yuan and Huang Yi arrive together; he believed that the three of them together could certainly snatch another Primordial Void Order.
Huang Yi laughed: “Everyone knows of Brother Ruan’s exceptional strength; even on your own, it would be easy to seize it.”
The implication was a refusal.
His relationship with Ruan Qi’an was not as good as imagined, and at this moment, whoever made the first move could likely become the target of all; since he had already obtained a Primordial Void Order, why take the risk?
Ruan Qi’an’s face looked a bit unsightly. He opened his mouth to look at Chen Yuan, but what returned to him was indeed a profile; Chen Yuan’s spirit was concentrated on Gu Hao and Monk Jingxin at that moment.
His earlier prediction had been correct, these two guys had indeed come together now.
If it weren’t for Huang Yi’s assistance, it really would have been difficult for him to take Gu Hao’s life this time.
Meanwhile, in the void, over ten Reach Profound experts had vaguely divided into several factions. Chen Yuan and Huang Yi formed their own group; Ruan Qi’an was interested in joining, but he lacked a Primordial Void Order.
Gu Hao, Monk Jingxin, and Xiao Qingmu stood together, with no one daring to challenge them with their gazes.
The one who was most coveted was still the white-haired old Daoist and an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. Comparatively, the situation of the man in the green shirt was the most precarious.
Even from a distance, Chen Yuan could sense his slight vigilance.
Obviously, he didn’t understand the Primordial Void Realm and thought that as soon as there was movement in the Primordial Void Order, he could enter, thus he eagerly revealed his identity.
The stooped old man he had paid attention to before, on the other hand, appeared calm and composed.
The crowd of Jianghu Martial Artists below was buzzing with discussion, and the six powerful individuals without Primordial Void Orders in the sky couldn’t help but become restless as they watched the changing scene in the void.
They looked at each other, their eyes sweeping over those who possessed the Primordial Void Orders.
The Feiyu Sword on Gu Hao’s back was instantly drawn and stopped in front of him. He proclaimed loudly:
“I am Gu Hao, a disciple of the Qingyun Sword Sect. Who would like to try whether my sword is sharp or not?”
Monk Jingxin brought his hands together in a prayer position, adding:
“This monk is Jingxin, a Martial Monk from the Bright Temple.”
Both of them announcing their sect affiliations immediately caused those who were peering to divert their gaze. In Qingzhou, who hadn’t heard of these two sects?
Furthermore, they were geniuses within the top fifty of the Hidden Dragon List.
Although this ranking does not necessarily mean that their true strength places them among the top Reach Profound martial artists in the world, it was definitely extraordinary; ordinary people were not their match.
The murmuring crowd below, someone said:
“That’s Gu Hao who ranks fortieth on the Hidden Dragon List. It’s said he’s favored by the Sect Leader of the Qingyun Sword Sect and may very well become the next Sect Leader.”
“Truly extraordinary in stature and handsome in appearance. If I could have a romantic tryst with him, even for one night, this old woman’s life would be fulfilled.”
“Gentlemen, beside that handsome Gu is the even stronger Monk Jingxin. Rumor has it that he possesses unparalleled Buddhist Saber Techniques and has cut down more than a hundred Evil Demons with his blade. He is a true executioner monk!”
A few Reach Profound Martial Artists exchanged glances, just as they turned their eyes to the somewhat unfamiliar Chen Yuan, a Sword Light slashed out, stopping ten paces in front of him. He said calmly:
“Anyone who crosses this line shall die!”
Chen Yuan’s voice was not loud, but it could be heard clearly by everyone, making them take a sidelong glance and view him with gravity, especially when they saw Huang Yi in official attire standing beside him, they couldn’t help but speculate about his identity.
“Who is this guy? He’s even more arrogant than the Qingyun Sword Sect’s young hero Gu.”
“You just arrived in Prefecture City and might not know, but this person is none other than Demon Sword Chen Yuan from Jianghu in Qingzhou, famed far and wide. It’s said that he’s risen rapidly; in less than a year, he has broken through from a Martial Artist in the Foundation Establishment Realm to Reach Profound.
In Nanling Prefecture, he has left a trail of severed heads in his wake and is also known as the God of Slaughter!”
“Is that him?”
“Yes, it’s him!”
“I heard that a few days ago, the Feiyu Sword slightly conceded to him after a solo fight and lost a Primordial Void Order.”
“Indeed, I was there at the scene when he crushed Deng Jiuguang with his hand.”
“Truly peerless in strength. It’s rumored that he came from humble beginnings, a true gem from among the common folk!”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible. No matter how talented, it’s not logical that someone could break through from the Foundation Establishment Realm to Reach Profound in less than a year!”
“You’re talking logic with a person placed in the top fifty of the Hidden Dragon List?” someone said mockingly.
It had to be said that Chen Yuan’s reputation was not small. With the recent solo fight and the death of Deng Jiuguang, all the prominent figures in Prefecture City knew his name.
Six Reach Profound Martial Artists, provoked by Chen Yuan’s arrogant words, some felt rather displeased, but seeing that no one around them intended to take action, they also suppressed their impulses.
Most of them were no longer young, long past the time when disagreements would lead to killing. Now, they weighed the pros and cons, hoping to get their hands on the Primordial Void Order.
After some consideration, several people made their decision, setting their sights on the other three people.
In pairs, they surrounded their targets. Ruan Qi’an felt somewhat tempted, glanced at Chen Yuan and Huang Yi, and decided to make his move later if a good opportunity arose.
The battle was on the brink of erupting.
The first to strike was not the covetous six, but the white-haired Daoist. He faced the two Reach Profound Martial Artists surrounding him, and with a shock, an aura belonging to the Reach Profound Late Stage, at the Heavenly Palace Level, burst forth. He swung the silver horsetail whisk in his hand, and terrifying techniques began to unfold.
The hunched old man previously noticed by Chen Yuan held a dark black, snake-headed cane, lightly tapping it in the void, with Gang Qi forming a Protective Shield around him.
The ordinary looking middle-aged man in a blue shirt decided to run without hesitation, planning to circle around and wait for the Primordial Void Realm to open before seizing the chance to enter.
The struggle for Reach Profound began in an instant!
Chen Yuan, Huang Yi, and others watched the battle with great interest, and the Martial Artists below were all discussing fervently. However, things changed when a Reach Profound master’s Sword Light fell among the crowd below.
All hurriedly retreated…
The contest involving the white-haired Daoist was the first to conclude. With effortless skill, he dealt with both attackers and even gained the upper hand.
The two Reach Profound attackers realized that the Daoist was not to be forcefully taken. After a brief clash, they retreated and flew towards the blue-shirted man from before.
The hunched old man stood as immovable as a mountain, the Gang Qi Protective Shield around him extremely stable, impervious to the Reach Profound masters’ full range of techniques, at best they only managed to shake it slightly.
In the end, they also had to retreat, seizing the most hopeful Primordial Void Order.
In just thirty breaths’ time, a dizzying sequence of changes unfolded. The ones attacking the white-haired Daoist and the hunched old man were not without a chance of winning.
It just wasn’t worth it.
No one could tell when the Primordial Void Realm would open; it was best to seize the opportunity as soon as possible.
Thus the following scene ensued.
Six Reach Profound martial artists surrounded one, resolving the battle in an instant; the blue-shirted man met a bitter end at the scene, prompting even Chen Yuan to silently remark, “An innocent man bears the guilt of the treasure he carries,”
Weakness is the original sin!
After the blue-shirted man’s death, another bout of chaos ensued, and within a quarter of an hour, another fell, blood spilling on the spot.
At this moment, after nearly half an hour, the scene of dark clouds filling the sky above finally began to change intensely, earth-shaking and mountain-moving with those of insufficient cultivation unable to even stand.
The sky suddenly darkened, the sunlight blocked, as though it was a scene of the apocalypse.
The Primordial Void Orders in the hands of Chen Yuan and others grew exceptionally hot, so much so that ordinary people would probably be burned instantly if they held it.
“Look, something’s changing!”
Someone in the crowd suddenly pointed ahead and shouted, drawing everyone’s attention.
There, ripples spread through the void, massive amounts of Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy gathered within it, turning it into the epicenter of the world at that moment. A huge circular gateway appeared before everyone’s eyes.
The gateway emitted waves of Primordial Energy, and all those holding a Primordial Void Order realized at the same time that the Primordial Void Realm had opened!
