Chapter 914: 823 Encounter with Qingxuan Clan Cultivator Again

A narrow valley, devoid of any grass, Chu Buyu’s face full of vigilance, she walked slowly.

She sensed something and stopped.

A golden lightning appeared in front of her, and Shen Long appeared, his back adorned with wings covered in golden arcs.

"Husband, it’s you!"

Chu Buyu saw Shen Long, her face filled with joy.

"Lady, have you not encountered Grandmaster and Senior Brother Li?"

Shen Long asked.

"No, husband, are you with Senior Sister Qin?"

Chu Buyu asked.

"We were together hunting for treasures, three late-stage Unity Qingxuan Clan cultivators attacked us, Senior Sister Qin was killed, her Nascent Soul self-destructed to buy me time to escape, we will avenge this debt sooner or later."

Shen Long’s face filled with sorrow and anger as he spoke.

"Senior Sister Qin was killed? The Divine Skills of the Qingxuan Clan cultivators are so formidable?"

Chu Buyu exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes! There are always higher skies and greater people, one of the Qingxuan Clan cultivators possessed a strange treasure, extremely powerful in Divine Soul Attack, even the Mysterious Soul Shield that Senior Sister Qin mastered couldn’t withstand it."

Shen Long explained.

Chu Buyu suddenly realized, she remembered something and said, "Husband, I discovered an ancient cultivator’s cave dwelling, let’s go there together!"

She took out a blue beast hide, which had numerous writings on it, one of the valleys was marked with the words "cave dwelling."

She had found this from the remains of an ancient cultivator and was planning to head to that location when she encountered Shen Long.

Shen Long carefully examined it and found that some parts overlapped with his own map; he took out two maps and began comparing them, confirming their current location as well as the location of the ancient cultivator’s dwelling.

"Let’s go! Be cautious, and hopefully, we won’t encounter any Qingxuan Clan cultivators."

Shen Long spoke gravely, and he left the area with Chu Buyu.

······

In a vast and boundless green bamboo forest, a huge booming sound emitted from deep within, a massive red mushroom cloud soared into the sky, piercing the clouds.

Deep in the bamboo forest, Lai Sheng and two others stood in an open area, on the ground lay two giant red lions, breathless.

"That guy’s Escape Speed is too fast! Even with our top-grade Sky-reaching Spiritual Treasure for flying, we can’t catch up."

Lai Yue frowned and said.

"Just let him be fast, let’s hope we don’t run into him again. Also, no idea where Lai Guang is, if he could regroup with us, the four of us using the Combined Attack Technique could make him unable to withstand even a single move."

Lai Sheng spoke in a deep voice.

They collected the bodies of the red lions and left the place.

······

A vast green grassland, a deafening roar of a dragon emanated from deep within the grassland, a huge red mushroom cloud soared into the sky.

A red Escape Light flew out from the depths of the grassland, very fast.

"Trying to flee, did you ask me?"

A cold male voice sounded,

Just as the voice faded, a void fluctuation occurred, and a huge green beast claw appeared and slapped forward.

The red Escape Light halted, revealing a short and stout red-robed old man, his features clearly identifying him as a Five Lights Sect Cultivator.

The right hand of the red-robed old man glowed bright red, a red giant hand flashed out, colliding with the green beast claw, both perishing together.

A several thousand feet tall green tornado swept forward, reaching the red-robed old man in an instant, a strong suction pulling the old man into the green tornado.

Not long after, an extremely painful male scream came from within the tornado.

With a flash of green light, the green tornado transformed into the figures of Li Dong and Wind Flood Dragon, Li Dong holding a Nascent Soul that closely resembled the red-robed old man.

"True Spirit Fruit Tree! Eighth Rank Monster Beasts!"

Li Dong’s eyes lit up.

The red-robed elder discovered a True Spirit Fruit Tree, guarded by an Eighth Rank Monster Beast, but before he could notify the Mahayana Cultivators of his clan, he encountered Li Dong and was killed by him.

Li Dong handed the Nascent Soul to the Wind Flood Dragon, allowing it to consume the Nascent Soul.

"I hope I can encounter Master Uncle Wu, Junior Brother Shen, and the others. With my power alone, I can’t get the True Spirit Fruit."

Li Dong muttered to himself and left the place with the Wind Flood Dragon.

······

A continuous expanse of lush green mountains, a red Escape Light appeared in the distant sky, momentarily stopping above a small valley surrounded by mountains on three sides.

The Escape Light converged to reveal the Qianhuo Boat, Shen Long, Chu Buyu, and Shen Chan standing on it, with a lake of over ten acres to the southwest of the valley.

"This is the place, there’s a humanoid skeleton inside the valley, it must be the Zouhua Cave Dwelling of a Unity Cultivator."

Shen Chan spoke, eyes flickering with golden light.

The valley was barren, looking rather desolate.

Shen Long threw a punch, and a yellow giant fist flashed out, striking a certain stone wall.

With a thunderous roar, the wall shook violently, and a large amount of rubble fell.

A flash of yellow light revealed a dimly lit yellow Spiritual Light screen on the stone wall.

Shen Chan’s eyes shot out golden light, hitting the yellow light screen.

The yellow light screen instantly rippled and shattered like a bubble, revealing a hole about a zhang in size.

Shen Long’s Divine Sense spread out, discovering a humanoid skeleton inside the cave, exactly as Shen Chan had described.

Chu Buyu cast a spell, and the Qianhuo Boat flew into the cave, quickly reaching the end where a humanoid skeleton lay on the ground, draped in a green long dress.

Shen Long flicked his sleeve, and Shen Jiu flew out from the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

Shen Jiu opened his mouth and spewed a blue light, covering the humanoid skeleton, revealing a green light orb.

"Dear Daoist, spare my life..."

The green light orb begged for mercy.

"Appearing now, were you planning to ambuscade us?"

Shen Long sneered coldly.

Shen Jiu snorted coldly, and the blue light swept the green light orb into his mouth, swallowing it.

"Master, this person comes from the Heavenly Demon Palace of the Tianxuan Realm and entered the Ten Thousand Spirits Cave Heaven to hunt for treasures. She was severely injured by a Late Stage Seventh Rank Thousand-Eyed Blood Spider, poisoned with a rare toxin, her body destroyed, intending to seize the body of other Treasure Hunters."

Shen Jiu said.

"Heavenly Demon Palace!"

Shen Long’s brows furrowed.

Yuling True Monarch had offended the Heavenly Demon Palace, which is why he dared not hold a grand celebration for achieving Mahayana.

He beckoned with one hand, and a green Storage Bracelet flew off the left bone hand of the skeleton, landing in his hand.

He flicked his wrist, and a swath of green light swept by, a heap of items appeared on the ground, though there were no Top Grade Sky-reaching Spiritual Treasures, there were many aged Spiritual Medicines.

"Master, I discovered a member of the Qingxuan Clan, more than five thousand li to the southwest."

Shen Chan spoke up.

"Another Qingxuan Clan Cultivator!"

Shen Long’s expression turned cold, filled with killing intent.

"He is alone!"

Shen Chan added.

"It can’t be a Mahayana Cultivator, can it?"

Chu Buyu frowned and said.

"I’ll go take a look, if he’s not a Mahayana Cultivator, then I’ll kill him."

Shen Long’s face was filled with killing intent, he released Shen Peng and merged with him.

A pair of wings covered in golden arcs grew on his back, and with a light flap of those golden wings, he transformed into a golden lightning bolt and vanished.

Chu Buyu gathered the items on the ground and followed.
