Taking Back the Treasures They Collected
A dozen or so geniuses from the Immortal Realm stared solemnly at the three corpses before them.
There were no visible injuries.
However, they sensed traces of Taiyin Power on the corpse.
"It must be the killing move of the Taiyin Immortal Art — Three Talents Reflecting the Moon!" one of the Immortal Realm geniuses said angrily. "It was done by the Taiyin Immortal King Lineage. No one else knows the Taiyin Immortal Art!"
"Among those who Lower Realm this time, Qi Zhou is a descendant of the Taiyin Immortal King, and he has mastered the Three Talents Reflecting the Moon!"
"We clearly agreed to unite against a common enemy, but this has only just begun, and Qi Zhou has already started fighting amongst themselves. Do they really think that just because the Taiyin Immortal King is among the top in terms of combat power, they dare to break the rules? This time, we must teach them a profound lesson!"
One of the geniuses said quietly, "Gentlemen, shouldn't we reassess Qi Zhou's combat strength?"
Many geniuses fell silent.
The fact that Qi Zhou was able to kill three geniuses with little resistance suggests that his combat strength is probably among the top ten of these geniuses from the Lower Realm.
Although they disagreed with Qi Zhou's actions, they had to consider such formidable fighting power.
The main reason they didn't detect any other Daoist techniques was that Qi Zhou single-handedly killed three people... Just how terrifying is that combat power?
One of the Immortal Realm geniuses glanced at Ming Xu beside him and coldly asked, "Did you see clearly? How many people are on the other side?"
"One person!" Ming Xu answered with absolute certainty. "I only saw the moonlight appear, and then they started fighting... I saw that the three seniors were struggling to resist, and I sensed something was wrong, so I hurriedly went back to ask for help."
The others exchanged glances, their brows furrowing even more deeply.
They truly hadn't expected that an ant from the Lower Realm would be so audacious as to use them as bait...
They've been One-Guard Monastery for years and know what these ants are like.
They only had the desire to curry favor with them, wishing they could all go to the Immortal Realm with them.
Furthermore, given Ming Xu's current injuries, they had no reason to doubt Ming Xu.
Moreover, materials like Taiyi Geng Metal are indeed very important for forging immortal swords, so it makes perfect sense that Qi Zhou killed someone for such heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Of course, the most important thing is that the Taiyin Immortal Art is unique to this family; no one else knows it!
The other Immortal Realm geniuses hastily disposed of the three corpses, then returned to Thousand Mechanism Lake, reminding everyone to be careful and to be on guard against Qi Zhou!
In Qi Zhou, Cloud Firmament Mountain, I suddenly felt a strong itch in my nose and sneezed a few times...
Ming Xu obediently followed the others back to Thousand Mechanism Lake to recuperate, but he felt a deep regret. Why didn't Senior Daoxuan kill all these Immortal Realm from the Immortal Realm? He had lured so many out this time... to let these high and mighty geniuses of the Immortal Realm know how terrifying ants from the Lower Realm are!
Meanwhile, Zhang Yang returned to Langya Blessed Land and fully restored his power.
The rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures he brought back were transformed into two Law Treasure of the Treasure Artifact level by Qingxu.
There's really not much time to refine it, so let's just use this Treasure Artifact- level Law Treasure for now!
"How many Law Treasure are there?" Zhang Yang asked.
"We currently have eleven usable items," Zhang Changshan reported. "The heavenly materials and earthly treasures growing here are much more concentrated than in the surrounding area. If we continue to guard this place, we can ensure that everyone has all their Law Treasure ready."
After pondering for a while, Zhang Yang shook his head. "No, we can't be so passive."
Plunder is the fastest way to develop.
"You can't differentiate yourself from others by just waiting."
Within the Prodigy Battlefield, there are several unique areas.
These special areas were originally the strongholds of several major sects.
These locations have been verified by several major sects over thousands of years, who know that these places are prone to producing heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Although they possess the Langya Blessed Land, aren't places like Thousand Mechanism Lake also producing rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures?
If everyone develops together, then the power of the Immortal Realm, the Demon Realm, the Ghost Realm, and even the Demon Race will definitely be stronger.
Because these geniuses are stronger than the Azure Cloud Sect disciples, their Cultivation Method are likely to be even better.
Therefore, if development proceeds peacefully, the benefits that the Azure Cloud Sect gained from the Prodigy Battlefield this time, while not bad, will definitely not be much better.
"Everyone assemble!" Zhang Yang immediately ordered. "We've been in the Prodigy Battlefield for over ten days. Someone has already prepared all sorts of spirit medicine and materials for us, and even forged Law Treasure. Now, we're going to 'take' them back!"
The Devil Race looked at each other in bewilderment.
Take it back?
How can they commit robbery so openly and brazenly?
The disciples of the Langya Sacred Land felt a pang of shame. Had they really done the right thing?
On the other hand, the Azure Cloud Sect disciples were extremely excited.
The Eldest Senior Brother said those were prepared for us; wouldn't it be a waste of their kindness not to take them back?
With so many people, they only have eleven Law Treasure? That's far too few!
Qingxu is still waiting to refine the Law Treasure!
They were all excited, abandoning Langya Blessed Land and rushing straight to Thousand Mechanism Lake.
Because we've roughly figured out the number of people in Thousand Mechanism Lake, and we've even killed four geniuses, now is the time to deal with Thousand Mechanism Lake.
When Zhang Yang led the Azure Cloud Sect disciples towards Thousand Mechanism Lake, the people of Thousand Mechanism Lake were dumbfounded.
Didn't we agree to develop peacefully at the beginning? Why are you being so unreasonable...? No, these are ants from the Lower Realm, no wonder they're being unreasonable!
"So you're just an ant from the Lower Realm Azure Cloud Sect. No wonder you had such audacity."
"Fellow Daoists, let's join forces to annihilate these ants from the Azure Cloud Sect and let them know that the majesty of our Immortal Realm is inviolable."
"Although they outnumber us, numbers alone are of no use against us."
A group of geniuses from the Immortal Realm sneered and made their moves.
While the geniuses of the Immortal Realm are indeed powerful, the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect constantly fought against prodigies like Situ Mingyue, Leng Qingfeng, and Kong Xiuping when they were still in the Nascent Soul Realm.
After so many years of training, they have developed a tacit understanding of how to attack each other.
When faced with an attack from an Immortal Realm genius, two or three Azure Cloud Sect disciples would often coordinate their attacks.
Even if they cannot win, they can use the best means of survival to protect themselves.
More importantly, this group of people were wearing armor with runes on it, and some, like Xu Qing, even possessed Treasure Artifact Law Treasure of the highest rank.
The Daoist techniques of the Immortal Realm genius landed on everyone's armor, causing runes to surge, but their power gradually dissipated.
The armor was also damaged, but it still served its purpose in the end.
The disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect do not need to defend themselves at all until their armor is worn out.
The numerous Azure Cloud Sect disciples formed a triangular formation, with Hu Dali at the forefront, and charged towards the many geniuses from the Immortal Realm.
Zhang Yang, who possessed the strongest combat power, did not act recklessly in this great battle.
He kept a close watch on his surroundings at all times, and would appear wherever an Azure Cloud Sect disciple was in danger to provide assistance and make up for any shortcomings.
While his two fellow disciples were engaged with their opponent, Xu Qing unleashed a sword light that shot straight at the Immortal Realm genius before him. The sword, forged from Taiyi Geng Metal, was incredibly sharp and pierced through the Immortal Realm genius's Primordial Spirit Artistic Conception without any resistance.
By the time the Immortal Realm genius realized something was wrong, it was too late; a sword pierced through his chest.
The Quick Sword strike succeeded!
A genius from the Immortal Realm was slain.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Qing once again concentrated his Primordial Spirit power, attached it to the sword, and directly severed the Primordial Spirit as well. Only after confirming the opponent's death did he begin to help his fellow disciples deal with other opponents.
The other Azure Cloud Sect disciples also looked after each other and helped one another.
Soon, the geniuses of the Immortal Realm were scattered.
After the geniuses of the Immortal Realm were scattered, their combat power was reduced to that of individual fighters.
How can he face so many disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect?
One by one, the Immortal Realm geniuses, filled with anger and resentment, had no choice but to retreat from Thousand Mechanism Lake.
"Quickly, take heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
"Eldest Senior Brother, we've struck gold! They've actually collected all twenty-seven heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and some of them are almost ready to be refined into treasures!"
Zhang Yang clapped his hands loudly. "I told you, taking their heavenly materials and earthly treasures is much faster than collecting them ourselves. Let's make use of them, rest, and leave in half a day!"
