Chapter 390: 299 Life and Death Together_1

Fairy Chu Buyu waved her hand, and the yellow storage bracelet flew into her grasp, while Shen Long, being cautious, changed his appearance using the Shape-Shifting Lock.

"Let’s leave this place first,"

Fairy Chu said.

No sooner had her words fallen than the cave shook violently, cracks appearing everywhere. It quickly fell apart as a golden hand descended from the heavens, slapping towards Fairy Chu Buyu.

Shen Long snorted coldly, flicked his wrist, and the Lihuo Stick bloomed with blinding red light, conjuring multiple shadowy strikes that shattered the golden hand.

"Daring to steal treasures right under our Golden Ape Tribe’s nose, you’ve got some nerve,"

a cold male voice sounded.

A Green Giant Crane, its wings spanning more than thirty feet, flew from afar, with a burly, golden-robed man standing on its back who, judging by the fluctuations of his mana, was a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator.

Shen Long put the Hundred Eyes Cicada into the spirit beast bag to avoid injury from the aftermath of the magical battle.

Fairy Chu Buyu pinched a spell, and the Red Fire Flood Dragon shook its head and swung its tail, opening its mouth to spit out dozens of giant fireballs that smashed towards the golden-robed man.

The Green Giant Crane opened its beak and expelled a beam of green light, transforming into a green tornado over a hundred feet tall that rushed forward.

The giant fireballs collided with the green tornado; the comparison was like an egg smashing against a rock as they instantly disintegrated.

A red giant fist flew towards the tornado and collided with the green tornado, which exploded immediately. Hundreds of giant Wind Blades flew out, heading straight for Shen Long and Fairy Chu Buyu.

The Red Fire Flood Dragon spat out a wave of red soundwaves, blocking the incoming giant Wind Blades.

The red giant fist rushed towards the golden-robed man at great speed.

A golden light burst from the golden-robed man’s body, and a huge Golden Ape phantom appeared above his head.

The Golden Ape phantom let out an enraged roar, exhaling a golden soundwave that blocked the incoming red giant fist.

A deafening dragon roar filled the air as dozens of giant fireballs rained down anew.

The golden-robed man opened his mouth to exhale a giant axe shimmering with golden light, which he caught in his hand and swung at the void. An enormous golden axe blade swept out, chopping the incoming giant fireballs as easily as slicing through vegetables.

A gust of wind blew from behind the golden-robed man as Shen Long appeared, holding the Lihuo Stick, with a pair of enormous golden wings on his back.

The golden-robed man’s face fell with shock, and just as he tried to dodge, a piercing, harsh screech resounded by his ear. He felt as if he had been dealt a heavy blow, his head spinning, unable to stand properly.

Shen Long swung the Lihuo Stick, striking the golden-robed man.

The golden-robed man’s head burst on impact, his body turning into a puddle of flesh and blood, as the Lihuo Stick also smashed the Green Giant Crane’s head. A miniature green crane and a Nascent Soul separated from the body flew out, which Shen Long captured with a Green Jade Vase, emitting a beam of green light that enveloped the Nascent Soul and pulled it into the vase.

A Green Gourd flew over, emitting a green glow that enshrouded the miniature green crane before sucking it into the gourd.

"You have some nerve to kill at our doorstep, as if we do not exist,"

an extremely cold male voice came from above.

As soon as the voice fell, a golden rainbow flew from afar at great speed.

Fairy Chu Buyu flicked her sleeve, and five red-light-gleaming flying knives shot out, merging mid-flight into a red giant blade about thirty feet long that met the challenge.

With a "clang," the sound of metal clashing resounded as the red giant blade was sent flying back, splitting mid-flight into five red-light-gleaming flying knives.

The golden rainbow showed its true form, which turned out to be a short dagger glittering with golden light and astonishing spiritual energy, a true Spiritual Treasure.

Several beams of Escape Light appeared in the distant sky, one stopping to reveal three men and a woman, led by Hao Hu.

One was a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, two were Middle Stage, and one was Early Stage.

They had been out on an errand and encountered Shen Long and Fairy Chu Buyu just as they were killing a member of their tribe.

"Fairy Chu, we need to retreat quickly,"

Shen Long urgently transmitted to Fairy Chu Buyu.

He let out a long howl to the heavens, exhaling a red soundwave that rushed straight towards Hao Hu and his party.

Chu Buyu formed a spell with her fingers, and the Red Fire Flood Dragon opened its massive mouth, spewing out dozens of giant fireballs that smashed toward Hao Hu and his three companions. Five red flying knives merged into one again, transforming into a giant red blade about a zhang in length, charging straight toward the opposition.

A dazzling red light lit up on her back, and a pair of wings flickering with red light emerged in a flash.

The Red Fire Flood Dragon reverted to its original form, turning into a red flying knife that flew into the sleeve of Chu Buyu’s robe.

With a gentle flap of the red wings on her back, Chu Buyu disappeared from where she stood.

Golden light radiated from Hao Hu’s body, and the phantom of a Giant Ape emerged in the void above his head. The Giant Ape phantom spat out a golden soundwave, shattering the incoming giant fireballs, and the golden flying knife collided once more with the red blade, sending the red blade flying backward again, where it split into five red-luminescent flying knives.

Two men and a woman, all Nascent Soul Cultivators, consecutively launched their Dharma Treasures to attack Shen Long.

Shen Long swung his Lihuo Stick, conjuring multiple stick shadows to knock away the incoming Dharma Treasures.

A cold gleam surged in Hao Hu’s eyes as he was about to employ other Divine Skills, but not far behind them a red fiery light shone, and Chu Buyu appeared, having not abandoned Shen Long to escape alone.

Chu Buyu lifted her right hand, and a red-gleaming orb shot out, flying directly toward Hao Hu and his companions.

Hao Hu internally exclaimed in dismay, never having expected Chu Buyu to make a surprise counterattack.

"Crafty Human Clan,"

Hao Hu cursed in his heart, ready to dodge.

A sharp and ear-piercing shriek rang out, causing the four of them to suddenly feel dizzy, as if their heads were being struck by a heavy object.

Since Hao Hu was in the late-stage Nascent Soul, he was least affected and conjured a small golden umbrella that shimmered with light. The golden umbrella unfolded, releasing a wide expanse of golden radiance to envelop the four of them.

The red orb also exploded, and a massive bolt of red lightning soared into the sky, engulfing the figures of Hao Hu and his three companions.

Having landed a successful hit, Chu Buyu transmitted a message to Shen Long, "Let’s withdraw together."

"You wretched girl, you’re seeking death."

An extremely angry male voice came from within the red lightning.

A golden dagger shot forth, heading straight for Chu Buyu.

Just as Chu Buyu was about to dodge, a loud roar of a beast sounded, and she felt as if her head had smashed against an iron wall, leaving her dizzy and disoriented.

Just as Chu Buyu was about to be cleaved in two by the golden dagger, a flash of green light appeared beside her, and Shen Long emerged, swinging the Lihuo Stick to meet the attack.

A clang of metal striking metal sounded as the golden dagger was repelled.

A void fluctuation occurred, and a giant golden hand materialized above them, slamming down in their direction.

Shen Long let out a heaven-reaching howl, spurting out a red soundwave that shattered the golden hand.

He lifted his right hand, and the Soul Extinguishing Bead shot out, speeding directly toward Hao Hu and his party.

Hao Hu had a Spiritual Treasure, and this place was the stronghold of the Golden Ape Tribe. The longer they delayed, the more dangerous it became for them.

At the same time, the Iron Tail Scorpion emitted a sharp and piercing shriek, and the Soul Extinguishing Bead exploded, a huge ball of black light shining in the sky, engulfing a vast area.

Seizing the opportunity, Shen Long and Chu Buyu gently flapped the wings on their backs and vanished from their original location.

Before long, the black light dispersed, revealing the figures of Hao Hu and his companions. Their faces were covered in ash, and their bodies bore numerous fine bloodstains from the damage caused by the lightning beads. Their auras were withered, their Divine Souls severely wounded; the early Nascent Soul cultivator immediately passed out, becoming like the living dead.

Hao Hu’s complexion turned extremely ugly; he never imagined the opponents would have something like the Soul Extinguishing Bead. His Divine Soul had been heavily damaged, and his strength significantly reduced. His reactions were not as quick as before. If they recklessly pursued, there was no telling what other trump cards the opponents might have, risking annihilation.

"Immediately use the large Messaging Array to inform the other tribes, intercept these two Human Cultivators; the male cultivator possesses a weighty Spiritual Treasure," instructed Hao Hu.

"Yes, High Priest,"

A man in a green shirt responded and set out on his task.

The news spread quickly, and the Barbarian Tribe deployed several Nascent Soul Cultivators in pursuit of the two Nascent Soul Cultivators.
