BXBX NOVEL Chapter 728: 729 One Stick Per Person
“How bold, mere swine from the Barbaric Lands dare to scorn the three great dynasties, kill them!”
Prince Yan of the Great Flame Dynasty ordered coldly with a wave of his hand, and several attendants by his side immediately made their move. Immortal Spirit Qi erupted as they tried to subdue Liuren with overwhelming force.
But facing the sky-covering Sea-Calming Divine Needle, they had no strength to fight back, and their expressions changed dramatically the moment they came into contact. The formidable power emanating from the golden cudgel utterly crushed them; blood spewed from their mouths as their bodies were flung back, directly into the profound spatial passageway.
The scene fell utterly silent, with several Princely Heirs and a group of old ancestors slightly stunned.
“This… isn’t quite right, is it?”
“The Vice Leader is just at the Half-step Human Immortal realm, so how can she sweep aside those from the Upper Realm?”
“Indeed, cultivators from the Upper Realm have Immortal Spirit Qi coursing through their bodies. Even if they’re just servants, in terms of strength, they should be far above those on the Immortal Spirit Continent, shouldn’t they? How did the Vice Leader instantly defeat them?”
“Hiss, could it be that they aren’t as strong as us?”
“No wonder Li Xiaobai dared to lead people to snatch Immortal Spirit Qi directly; they must know something. If people from the Upper Realm were truly overwhelming us, they would not have rushed in so rashly. In that case, perhaps we also have a chance to lay our hands on the Immortal Spirit Qi!”
The old ancestors communicated with one another through secret transmissions, analyzing the situation as soon as they clashed, with a tacit understanding between them.
Cultivators from the Central Origin Realm have Immortal Spirit Qi in their bodies and practice Immortal Yuan, which is a higher level of cultivation system, so they could not perceive the realm of their counterparts. However, from the performance of those few servants, they understood one thing.
That is, even among Upper Realm cultivators, not everyone is an expert at the Immortal Realm.
However, to determine the truth of the matter, further observation was necessary.
“Ah Nu!”
Fury blazed in the eyes of the Li Dynasty Crown Prince. To have his servant killed before his very eyes was an affront he had never experienced, even in the Upper Realm. When had his status as Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty ever been disrespected like this, where everyone should kneel and pay homage?
“Prince Yan, please calm your anger, let your humble servant capture this wretch alive for your disposal!”
A few ordinary cultivators from the Upper Realm spoke up, all disciples of sects subordinate to the three great dynasties. They naturally couldn’t miss this opportunity to ingratiate themselves.
“Behead them, and I shall reward you with a Profound Grade Battle Technique!”
Prince Yan said.
“Many thanks for Prince Yan’s favor!”
A hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the disciples as they attacked immediately, targeting the monkey below wielding the golden cudgel.
“Die!”
Liuren was brimming with murderous intent; she had no intention of testing her opponents. From the start, she used killer moves, knowing that the so-called chosen ones from the Upper Realm were but appetizers, and the real adversaries were those old undying plotting to seize the Immortal Spirit Qi in the shadows.
The golden cudgel swept across in her hands, flipping up and down, turning into a golden dragon that effortlessly broke through the defenses of several disciples, then with a single stroke, she smashed their heads to pieces, their headless corpses falling to the ground, devoid of life.
The entire process was executed in one breath, brutally efficient.
With this act, the expressions of everyone on the scene completely changed. A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Princely Heirs of the three dynasties. The disciples who followed them were by no means weak, all at the Half-step Human Immortal realm with incredibly pure strength in their bodies, but they couldn’t withstand a single move from that monkey’s hands. Who was this individual?
“Why does this monkey look somewhat familiar to me, as if I’ve seen her somewhere before?”
The icy female cultivator from the Sword Dynasty was somewhat pale; the sight of several people’s heads exploding before her eyes was nauseating.
“Could she be a descendant of that particular someone?”
The Li Dynasty Crown Prince narrowed his eyes. If she was indeed as he suspected, it meant he couldn’t act rashly against her.
“Is the person below a descendant of the Six-Eared Sage?” asked Prince Yan.
“Do you know of my ancestors?”
Liuren’s movements halted, and he asked with confusion.
“Indeed, the Six-Eared Sage was a formidable force in my Central Origin Realm. Since you are his descendant, you should stand with us. As for what happened just now, the Princely Heir will treat it as if it never occurred. Come here, and in the future, I will take you to the Central Origin Realm to seek your ancestor,” the Prince Yan said, in an unquestionable tone from his superior position.
“I see.”
Liuren nodded and walked towards the others with the golden cudgel on his shoulder.
“Hehe, that’s right. You are fundamentally different from these swine. We are of the same kind,” Prince Yan said with a satisfied nod. Just as he was about to look away, he suddenly felt an intense sense of life-and-death crisis. Instinctively, he ducked, and a golden phantom whizzed past his hair, striking the haughty beauty of the Sword Dynasty squarely in the chest.
“Pfft!”
The haughty woman didn’t have time to draw her sword before a large portion of her chest caved in violently. Blood spurted from her mouth as she crashed to the ground, her body cracking all over, narrowly avoiding exploding on the spot.
“Xun’er!”
“You’re courting death!”
The faces of the two princely heirs changed drastically, their eyes ablaze with boundless rage, as Immortal Spirit Qi erupted around them.
The Li Dynasty Crown Prince, with a physique as hard as iron, muscles bulging like coiling dragons, charged at Liuren and swung his fist, opting for the path of physical cultivation. The Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty manifested a pair of dazzling, fire-red wings that emitted a scorching aura, creating a tumultuous wave of fire that swept toward the golden monkey below.
“All of you, get lost!”
Liuren took a big step forward and quickly swung his staff twice.
The first strike shattered all the bones in the Li Dynasty Crown Prince’s body.
The second dispelled the bonds of the fiery cage and shattered the fiery wings behind the Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty into pieces, which were scattered by the wind.
The two fell to the ground, limp like broken rags, severely injured and unable to rise.
The cultivators were in an uproar.
“No way, are they that weak?”
“The Vice Leader takes them down with a single strike each without even seeming to exert any force!”
“Aren’t these guys from the Upper Realm supposed to be geniuses, crushing us? How come they are the ones getting crushed instead?”
“I guess the first batch of disciples who came down don’t have strong cultivation levels, that’s why the Vice Leader could suppress them so effortlessly. It seems their forces might not be much different from ours after all.”
“Still, they ultimately are disciples from the Upper Realm and to top it off, scions of major forces. We can’t compare with their status and identity. Even if their cultivation is not high, they shouldn’t be offended easily!”
The elders’ minds became active; it was the Vice Leader who had beaten the men, which meant it had nothing to do with them. Should trouble arise, naturally, the Vice Leader would take the fall. For now, with fewer Upper Realm cultivators around, it was their chance to seize the Immortal Spirit Qi.
“This is impossible!”
“How can these barbarians from the uncivilized lands possess such strength!”
“As a descendant of a Semi-Saint, you dared to attack those from the dynasty; you have gotten yourself into big trouble!”
“You swine, hurry up and stop this monkey, hand over the Immortal Spirit Qi to me!”
Prince Yan bellowed hysterically, but unfortunately, no one responded; the elders now looked at him with eyes that were quite off, selectively ignoring him after learning the true strength of these Upper Realm cultivators.
