Chapter 626: 355 The man in black knows his limit.

On the mountain peak, Qin Hao felt the Qi of the Divine Flame Clan’s vanguard approaching from below growing closer and closer, and their speed was extremely fast.

Within just a blink of an eye, he saw eight black shadows arrive atop the mountain peak.

Observing this group of black-robed figures, Qin Hao couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.

So, these were the legendary Divine Flame Clan.

Beforehand, he had only heard of them through Yang Ye’s account and had never seen them with his own eyes; today was his first encounter.

The cultivators beyond Blue Star looked like this, huh?

There wasn’t anything particularly remarkable about them; their appearances were similar to human beings from Blue Star, all with arms and legs.

It could also be that their faces were obscured by the black robes, as Qin Hao couldn’t see clearly.

However, Qin Hao could still feel the formidable Qi emanating from these Divine Flame Clan beings.

No wonder they were capable of serving as the vanguard of the Divine Flame Clan; they were indeed strong.

Among these eight individuals, the weakest were Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, with the strongest even reaching the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation.

Such cultivation levels could be considered notable figures in some of the Large Star Domains.

At the very least, within the Large Star Domains, cultivators of such cultivation levels generally wouldn’t remain unknown.

Even in some medium and small Star Domains, they might even become dominant lords.

Yang Ye was correct; the Divine Flame Clan really possessed formidable strength.

With so many Nascent Souls and Divinity Transformations amongst their ranks.

And these were just the vanguard, merely the pathfinders.

Without even thinking, one could deduce that the Divine Flame Clan’s main force would definitely have even more cultivators at the Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation levels.

Merely looking at the vanguard’s lineup made Qin Hao imagine the terrifying battles that Blue Star would face in the future.

The enemy Blue Star now faced was perhaps the most formidable they had ever encountered.

When the Divine Flame Clan’s main force eventually descended upon Blue Star, Qin Hao feared that he might be no match against their overwhelming numbers.

After returning from Jiuling City this time, Qin Hao had already planned to contact Yang Ye to discuss how to deal with the Divine Flame Clan’s issue.

But for now, Qin Hao’s task was to first dispose of these members of the Divine Flame Clan invading Blue Star’s vanguard.

While Qin Hao was observing the Divine Flame Clan beings,

the group of black-robed figures from the Divine Flame Clan were likewise observing Qin Hao and Taoist Jing Chen beside him.

Before ascending the mountain, this group of black-robed figures had sensed the Sword Intent emanating from the mountain peak.

Before coming up the mountain, these figures didn’t know who exactly was atop it, but now Qin Hao was right before them, allowing this group to finally see the true faces.

It was one of these two individuals who had released the Sword Intent.

This group of black-robed figures from the Divine Flame Clan, as a vanguard for their clan, had been to many Star Domains and seen countless cultivators.

Their experience was vast, and they could tell at a glance that among the two individuals on the mountain peak,

the one in the red robe had a Nascent Soul cultivation.

Moreover, his foundation was extremely sound, not an ordinary Nascent Soul.

As for the one in the purple robe, there was no need to look further.

When the Technology Clan, the Light Song Clan, used their Starry Sky Battleship to invade Blue Star, the vanguard of the Divine Flame Clan had sneakily infiltrated Blue Star.

Back then, they had personally witnessed this man in purple robes clashing with the Light Song Clan.

They knew exactly how powerful he was,

definitely not inferior to the Nascent Soul in the red robe.

At this moment, both parties were facing each other at the mountain peak, falling into a brief silence.

Qin Hao’s idea was to first see if the Divine Flame Clan’s vanguard had anything to say, while he would quietly watch for changes.

If the other party was willing to talk, then it was still possible to have a discussion first.

If they were unreasonable and wanted to fight immediately, he wouldn’t mind accompanying them.

Although in his eyes, the Divine Flame Clan’s main force was definitely a tough bone to chew and hard to handle, what stood before him now was just the vanguard.

A few Nascent Souls and those at the Divinity Transformation level, with his current strength, Qin Hao could still handle them easily.

While the group of black-robed figures from the Divine Flame Clan were sizing up Qin Hao, they also turned their gaze towards his rear.

From behind Qin Hao, they sensed a powerful purple energy.

That energy was the Qi of Source Crystals.

Subsequently, this group of black-robed figures saw the Source Crystal Mine behind Qin Hao.

Even the widely-traveled Divine Flame Clan members were stunned for a moment upon seeing the Source Crystal Mine.

They had originally thought that Blue Star might contain Source Crystals, but they had not anticipated that not only did Blue Star indeed have Source Crystals, but also that the quantity far exceeded their imagination.

This inconspicuous little deserted star in the universe actually harbored such a large Source Crystal Mine?

A mine!

And it produced Source Crystals.

This was unheard of before.

Because Source Crystals were always a rarity, a rare treasure in the universe.

Typically, a planet would only generate a single Source Crystal.

Even large planets that could generate two Source Crystals at the same time were exceptionally rare.

Because the amount of planetary energy required to produce a Source Crystal was enormous.

A single Star Domain simply could not support that much energy.

Throughout the years, the Divine Flame Clan had scoured the universe for Source Crystals, earning them the title of the Source Crystal Pillaging Clan.

They had pillaged quite a few Source Crystals already.

Yet, they had never encountered a Source Crystal Mine.

To discover a Source Crystal Mine on this planet,

and the sheer amount of Source Crystals it contained was astonishing.

A single Source Crystal was enough to provoke wars between Star Domains, let alone if word of this Source Crystal Mine leaked out? What then?

The group of black-robed figures from the Divine Flame Clan couldn’t help but get excited.

If they could claim this Source Crystal Mine for the Divine Flame Clan, their clan could definitely soar to great heights because of it in the future!

As long as they captured this star, would they still need to wander across the universe?

They could go straight to the Ten Thousand Origin Sea and open the Ancient Secret Realm.

If they were lucky, the Divine Flame Clan might even be able to settle directly in the Central Star Domain and become a new Holy Land!

After all, many of the Holy Lands within the Central Star Domain had grown prosperous by using Source Crystals to explore the Ten Thousand Origin Sea!

Seeing the Source Crystal Mine behind Qin Hao ignited a fiery enthusiasm in their hearts.

Their expressions gradually became wilder.

Next second, the most highly cultivated Divinity Transformation black-robed figure pointed at Qin Hao and spoke, "Blue Star native, this place has now been officially taken over by our Divine Flame Clan. This is no concern of yours anymore, be sensible and leave the mountain, and we won’t make things difficult for you."

This Divinity Transformation black-robed figure was also clear on the situation.

If it were someone else who had found the Source Crystal Mine, if they were of a lower cultivation, they would have been erased on the spot, with no chance of descending the mountain.

But the one standing here now was this man in purple robes.

This purple-robed guy’s strength had been witnessed by them before; he had even killed those at the Returning Void Realm.

Although those created by the Technology Clan’s Light Song Clan using their tech weren’t truly at the Returning Void stage,

in terms of strength, they were above Divinity Transformation.

This Purple Robed Heavenly Master was extremely formidable indeed.

The group of black-robed figures from the Divine Flame Clan had no guaranteed assurance of victory against Qin Hao, so they could only try to intimidate first and make him leave. They could wait for the arrival of the Divine Flame Clan’s main force and let the clan’s experts deal with him later.

There was no need for them to take the risk of engaging Qin Hao themselves.
