Chapter 682: Chapter 353: Luck Value Skyrockets_2

Deng Chongfeng displayed his overwhelmingly powerful strength, which turned out to be the Fourfold Peak of the True Spirit Realm. He was situated above the Sea of Fire that filled the sky, which rose and fell with his thoughts.

“Golden Crow Breaks the Heavens!”

Boom!!

A gigantic three-legged golden crow rose from the Sea of Fire, the air around it igniting fiercely. The terrifying temperature caused the space itself to warp slightly.

The three-legged golden crow let out a resounding cry, then soared toward Chen Daoquan, bringing a powerful heatwave in its attack.

Chen Daoquan’s expression turned grave, as a blood-red aura rose from his spear, a huge shadow of a spear of slaughter coalescing in the Void.

“Slaughter Demon Red Dragon Kill!”

With one thrust of his spear, it was as if a myriad of demons roared, the blood-red Blade Aura tearing through the fabric of the world, directly striking the massive three-legged golden crow.

The three-legged golden crow let out a piercing shriek, instantly splitting into ten, each one enveloping Chen Daoquan.

The battle changed in the blink of an eye, and before Chen Daoquan could react, a scream was heard from somewhere else.

It turned out that Huang Yitong, who was fiercely battling Jing Tailan, had been suddenly attacked by another True Spirit Realm expert and fell in an instant.

“Elder Huang!”

Chen Daoquan burst into rage. His spear shot out sharp Blade Auras, obliterating the surrounding golden crows before killing his way toward Jing Tailan and the newcomer from the True Spirit Realm.

“I will have you all accompany Elder Huang in death!”

As he spoke, a star-like Blade Aura erupted, brilliantly luminous, driving away the night.

Where the Blade Aura passed, the Rule River collapsed.

Seeing that his opponent seemed truly desperate, Jing Tailan did not dare to block and quickly ducked away.

The True Spirit Realm expert also did not dare to face the spear’s edge and had no choice but to retreat step by step.

Seeing the two evade, Chen Daoquan’s eyes flashed with cunning, then he ran off like a wisp of smoke.

This scene left Jing Tailan and the newly appeared True Spirit Realm expert dumbfounded.

Just like that?

What happened to the fight to the death?

He’s running away?

Chen Daoquan’s earlier outburst was clearly one of embarrassment and rage, a posture of betting his life.

Yet, unexpectedly, the opponent was planning to flee.

And they, the two of them, were actually intimidated by the opponent’s consciousness, allowing him to escape. Thinking back, they were extremely embarrassed.

Watching the figure of Chen Daoquan completely disappearing into the dark shadows, Deng Chongfeng’s eyes flickered with a momentary regret: “It’s a pity, we let him escape.”

“Being able to kill a Triple True Spirit of the Sanyuan Palace had already exceeded our expectations. Even if Chen Daoquan really decided to flee, it’s not certain that the three of us could have held him back,” Jing Tailan said, then bowed to Deng Chongfeng: “Many thanks to Brother Deng for the help, otherwise Jing would not have escaped this disaster.”

Deng Chongfeng said: “It was no trouble at all. Brother Jing, you needn’t be so polite. Moreover, the Sanyuan Palace first interfered with the Mountain Chill Manor and now has attacked Brother Jing within the territory of my Blue Sky Sect. Regardless of the situation, my Blue Sky Sect would not stand by idly.”

Jing Tailan gave Deng Chongfeng a meaningful look. However, he did not say much else, as after all, the other had saved his life.

Deng Chongfeng continued: “Now the Sanyuan Palace is merely a top-tier force, yet it dares to provoke the Green Flame Palace. Without the support of other superpowers, this would clearly not be possible.

As for which superpower stands behind them, we do not know for now. But what can be certain is that they will not stop here. They will continue to erode the Mountain Chill Manor and the surrounding territories and might even directly affect the interests of my Blue Sky Sect and the Green Flame Palace in the future.

If possible, my Blue Sky Sect is willing to form an alliance with the Green Flame Palace to expel the Sanyuan Palace and the forces behind it.”

Jing Tailan said with a bitter smile: “Brother Deng, you’re really overestimating me. Let alone that I’m only at the third level of the True Spirit Realm, even a Peak True Spirit would have no say in the Green Flame Palace.

However, rest assured, Brother Deng, I will certainly report everything that has happened recently.”

…

After Jing Tailan left, the True Spirit Realm expert asked: “Elder Deng, do you think the Green Flame Palace will form an alliance with our Blue Sky Sect?”

Deng Chongfeng assured confidently: “As the dominant force in the Green Flame Domain, the Green Flame Palace, if it does not respond after being provoked, will inevitably affect its reputation.

Therefore, they must retaliate against the Sanyuan Palace and will even try by all means to prevent them from ascending to superpower status.”

“`

However, with the current tense relations between Green Flame Palace and True Word Temple, a large-scale battle could break out at any moment, leaving them unable to spare much attention to deal with Sanyuan Palace. In such a case, they would inevitably seek the support of our Blue Sky Sect.”

The True Spirit Realm powerhouse said, “Hmm, as long as Green Flame Palace lends its aid, our Blue Sky Sect can rightfully claim possession of Shanhandaofu and even take down Beihandaofu.”

Blue Sky Sect is also a top-tier force, currently with two Immortal Realm experts and more than a dozen World Master Realm powerhouses stationed, its strength not too far behind Sanyuan Palace.

Shanhandaofu and Beihandaofu have long been regarded as possessions within their grasp, and now that Sanyuan Palace dares to covet them, they are the enemies of Blue Sky Sect.

However, with three Immortal Realm experts, Sanyuan Palace has always been slightly superior in terms of top-end combat power.

But for some unknown reason, Sanyuan Palace is incredibly irritable, so much so that they even dared to provoke Green Flame Palace. This gave Blue Sky Sect the opportunity they had been looking for, so they actively rescued Jing Tailan and expressed their intention to ally.

The Secluded Mountain Range.

Lu Yun, Yuan Yao, and Chang Xiaorui delved deep into the mountain range, where they occasionally encountered powerful Demon Beasts, and once even ran into a Unity Realm-level great demon.

Only after a fierce bloody battle did they manage to narrowly escape the territory of that great demon.

Afterwards, the three of them proceeded with even greater caution.

Although the Black-yellow Great World is the territory of the Human Race, deep in the remote mountains there reside many powerful demons and forbidden areas, with powers reaching to the heavens. Many human cultivators have strayed into their territory and ended up as their prey.

It was fortunate that Lu Yun’s consciousness was far superior to ordinary people, which helped them avoid wandering into the territory of those great demons.

“Be careful; there’s a Demon Beast ahead with a strength comparable to around the tenth level of the Heavenly Human Realm.”

Lu Yun stopped Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui who were by his side, then after carefully scouting the surroundings and confirming there were no stronger Demon Beasts dwelling there, they cautiously moved forward.

“Kill!”

The Blade Aura of the Blood Slaughter Blade swept past, and the Demon Beast, comparable to the tenth level of the Heavenly Human Realm, didn’t even have a chance to react before its body was torn into two halves by the terrifying Blade Aura.

At the same time, the Luck Value on Lu Yun’s face changed, reaching a total of five hundred thousand.

With five hundred thousand Luck Value, the Blood Slaughter Blade could be upgraded to an upper-grade spirit weapon.

But now was not the right moment to upgrade the Blood Slaughter Blade.

“Let’s go this way.”

After some investigation, Lu Yun led Yuan Yao and the other woman to continue forward.

Qi Yunfu was at least hundreds of thousands of miles away from their current location. With their current speed, it would take them at least a month to get there, and that’s without any unforeseen incidents along the way.

If they encountered powerful Demon Beasts midway, they would have to detour around their territories, which would significantly increase the travel time.

“Roar!”

As the trio passed through a swampy area, a yellowish-brown giant python surged out from the swamp. Its body length was nearly 150m, and its waist was as thick as a tree trunk, directly lunging at the weakest, Chang Xiaorui.

Lu Yun had already spotted the giant python but didn’t expect that before he could act, it would take the initiative to attack.

Lu Yun certainly did not refuse the Luck Value that came his way.

As the giant python struck with its gaping mouth, Lu Yun’s blade came down upon its open maw.

Pfft!

With that strike, the python’s tongue was severed, and the unyielding Blade Aura continued to fall upon the lower jaw of the giant reptile.

Like most Demon Beasts, the giant python had terrifyingly strong bodily defenses, impervious to usual attacks, but its innards were quite fragile.

Under Lu Yun’s blade, the giant reptile’s lower jaw was nearly completely severed, blood gushed out immensely.

As if experiencing intense pain, the large body of the reptile stiffened up and dramatically collapsed to the ground.

However, this creature had an extremely tenacious life force, and a single cut only gravely wounded it without causing immediate death.

Lu Yun took action again, this time severing its head with one swift motion, the trailing force of the Blade Aura extinguishing its vitality.

Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui, witnessing the scene, felt no great shock in their hearts; encounters like this had become routine and no longer surprised them.

Since entering the Secluded Mountain Range, every time they faced a Demon Beast, Lu Yun would not let either of them act.

His reasoning was that there were too many dangers, and they needed to maintain their peak state, even though the reason was quite far-fetched.

Nonetheless, Lu Yun was indeed formidable; along the way, irrespective of the strength of the Demon Beasts they encountered, very few could withstand more than three moves from him.

Of course, the stronger ones they avoided altogether from a great distance.
