Chapter 179: Chapter 176 Breaking the Seal

"There’s actually a seal on this?"

Ling Qianxue’s gaze also fell on the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed that resembled a heart. Around it, countless runes surged, protecting the seed within a tight barrier, impenetrable to the outside world.

Who could have placed a seal on this? And for what purpose?

"There seems to be something off about this Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed."

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed, and through the Dharma Seal runes, he could see that the surface of the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed faintly bore strands of black lines, barely visible, as if it had been contaminated.

"What’s wrong with it?"

Ling Qianxue couldn’t help but ask.

"Can’t quite put my finger on it, but I feel there must be a reason for this seal. Let’s not act hastily, we should watch the situation first."

Ye Xuan had a bad feeling. Now that the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed had appeared, the members of the Black Demon Sect should also be showing up. Rushing into action now wouldn’t be wise.

With this thought, he instead pulled Ling Qianxue down to a crouch, slightly concealing their presence, intending to observe the changes quietly.

However, just because they chose not to act didn’t mean that others wouldn’t. The second wave of people also surged forward, with more than twenty rapidly using Qinggong to leap up from the ground, as the powerful True Qi fiercely bombarded the Rune Seal.

Bang Bang Bang!

One after another, the attacks hit the same spot, like a series of explosions, causing the air in the half-space to twist and turn, spreading out like a water curtain in all directions.

However, the moment the ripples dispersed, the runes above released a surprising burst of light. A dazzling wave of light spread out in all directions, sending the second wave of strong attackers tumbling out in disarray.

"Such a powerful Dharma Seal."

After two rounds of attacks, the Dharma Seal formed by the runes in the sky remained resolute and unmoved, seemingly unaffected by any weakening.

"Everyone, let’s join forces."

At this moment, the strong individuals who had reached this underground space had almost all gathered. Ouyang Lie was the one who let out a roar to the crowd. At his call to arms, many responded and launched a third fierce attack.

In the field of vision, the lineup was nearly the same as those at the entrance, except for Ye Xuan and Ling Qianxue. People like Song Ming and Liu Sha, and even Leng Ruofeng, all struck together. This time, the array of strikes was so forceful it changed the complexion of the sky, each attack like a massive python shooting out, striking towards the Rune Seal.

Causing a tremendous surge in the air, this combined effort of more than twenty Martial Sect Masters and over a hundred Sect experts was a strike of monumental proportions.

Boom!

The multicolored True Qi shockwaves struck the Dharma Seal, and instantly, deafening explosions resounded in the half-space, their aftermath causing the ground itself to tremble repeatedly.

In the midst of the explosions, the sealed Rune Seal shone to its utmost, seemingly causing even the fabric of space to warp. A good portion of the True Qi impact was deflected back, striking the crowds from the various Sects, provoking wails of agony.

"It still won’t open?"

Even Ye Xuan found this surprising. Just how formidable was the person who set up this Dharma Seal? So many people attacking in unison have turned out to be rebounded by it?

Crack!

However, just as everyone was marveling at the solidity of the Rune Seal, a crack suddenly appeared atop it. As the crack spread, points of light scattered down, and the once unbreakable runes seemed to begin to crumble.

"The seal has been broken!"

The experts from the various Sects felt a surge of excitement in their hearts. Once the Dharma Seal was broken, then the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed would be directly exposed before them, and thereafter, it would be time to show their skills.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

As soon as the Rune Seal was broken, figures below immediately started darting about, rushing up into the air, wanting to seize the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed first.

"Seeking death!"

No sooner had those few individuals moved than they were hit by a dozen attacks, immediately spat out blood, and were sent flying backward.

"This is bad."

Seeing this scene of bloodshed and combat, Ye Xuan inwardly cursed the turn of events.

"What’s wrong?"

Ling Qianxue noticed the change in Ye Xuan’s expression and asked in surprise.

"Those guys from the Black Demon Sect have yet to appear. They must want to reap the benefits of the fisherman. Now, the people from the Black Demon Sect must be lurking nearby in the dark, ready to make their move at any moment."

Ye Xuan scanned the area with his gaze, but his search turned up nothing. However, the outcome he anticipated didn’t take long to manifest. Just after the few who had taken the lead were injured, suddenly, the rocks on both sides exploded. Two dark figures burst forth, their bodies rising into the air with force, heading straight for the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed.

"They’ve shown up."

The emergence of the dark figures instantly caught Ye Xuan’s attention. These individuals, who had been concealed ever since entering the cave, were finally making their move.

"Black Demon Sect scum, seeking death!"

Ouyang Lie roared, his body as if ignited in a blaze, his aura dramatically surged, and he ascended into the sky with dominating force. He was only half a step slower than the two dark figures, rushing straight for the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed.

However, facing the onrush of Ouyang Lie, one of the dark figures in a black robe suddenly halted in midair, his lips curling into a disdainful sneer. With an extremely domineering punch, he smashed downwards like a cannonball.

Seeing that the man in the black robe even dared to counter-attack, Ouyang Lie’s pupils also narrowed, and he immediately countered with a palm strike.

Bang!

Their fists and palms collided, fierce winds spreading around them, and both were forced back a distance. They were evenly matched, neither gaining the upper hand.

"May I inquire which member of the Black Demon Sect you are?"

Ouyang Lie’s face showed a trace of shock. As a Third Grade Martial Sect Master and an inner Elder of the Wildfire Sect, his status was second only to the Wildfire Sect Leader. Inside the Black Demon Sect, there were not many who could face him in direct combat and not be at a disadvantage.

"I am the Mountain Demon General."

The man in the black robe reported his name without any hesitation, a cold smirk creeping across his lips before launching another heavy punch at Ouyang Lie.

Hearing the name Mountain Demon General, Ouyang Lie was once again startled. This Mountain Demon General was a being of great power, the second-ranked among the Eight Demon Generals.

Not daring to be negligent, he too immediately met the punch with a palm strike.

Meanwhile, the other dark figure had already reached the side of the Rune Seal, shattering the remaining runes with a palm, and then suctioned out the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed contained within.

"Demon, seeking death!"

The crowd below were not just for show. Seeing the Heavenly Origin Ancient Seed about to be snatched away, it was impossible for them to remain indifferent. Leng Ruofeng, Liu Sha, as well as Song Ming and the Great Elder of Xingyun Pavilion, all had a sudden shift in expression. Then, stomping their feet, they each unleashed their Martial Arts and launched an attack, surrounding the man in black and cutting off any escape.
