Ding, Lin Langtian felt surprised. Emotion Points +100 Ding, Huangpu Jing felt surprised. Emotion Points +50

Chen Xuan's mind was continuously filled with notifications of Emotion Points being added.

He paid them no mind.

His gaze swiftly searched for Huangpu Jing and Lin Langtian.

Below, the crowd stared at Chen Xuan so hard their eyes nearly popped out.

Someone quickly noticed something unusual.

"Look! What's under his feet?"

"It looks like... a sword!"

"Oh, I get it now! No wonder he could fly so high. He was using that sword!"

"Wait, does that mean that sword is a legendary Spiritual Treasure?"

"A Spiritual Treasure? How is that possible? Have you ever seen a Spiritual Treasure covered in rust like this? It looks like a piece of scrap no one wanted."

"You clearly don't know quality! If that isn't a Spiritual Treasure, does that mean this man's strength has reached the Nirvana Realm?"

"When you put it that way... it really is a Spiritual Treasure!"

"The Azure Wood Sect is claiming this Spiritual Treasure!"

"Sure, go ahead and take it, then!"

Cries of astonishment spread through the crowd in an instant.

Everyone stared greedily at the rust-mottled longsword beneath Chen Xuan's feet.

That was a Spiritual Treasure!

Even among the Four Great Clans, such a fine item was exceedingly rare.

Therefore,

everyone present wished they could claim it for themselves at once.

After Chen Xuan landed,

the crowd exchanged glances, eager to act but unwilling to be the first to stick their necks out.

They all turned their eyes toward the Four Great Clans.

Lin Langtian frowned at Chen Xuan.

A voice only he could hear sounded beside his ear.

"Lin Langtian, be careful. This man is very strong."

The speaker was the soul residing within him—Mu Shi, the mentor who had helped him embark on the path of genius!

Lin Langtian asked, "How strong?"

Mu Shi replied, "Even in my current state, I can't see through his true strength!"

That strong?

Lin Langtian was somewhat surprised.

He was also tempted by the Spiritual Treasure, but since Mu Shi had said so,

he could only give it up unwillingly.

Qin Shi and Huangpu Jing, seeing that he had not moved,

also chose to wait and see.

Meanwhile, Wang Pan of the Wang Clan stared at Chen Xuan for a moment.

Then he suddenly stepped forward.

"Brother, I'm Wang Pan of the Wang Clan. I think your sword is quite nice. How about giving it to me?"

His tone carried an air of lofty superiority.

A smug curve lifted at the corner of his mouth.

It was as though his status as a member of the Wang Clan was something extraordinary, and anyone who heard it had no choice but to obey him.

Give it to you?

Who the hell do you think you are?

Chen Xuan could not be bothered with him. His gaze remained fixed on Huangpu Jing.

Then he slowly spat out a single word. "Scram!"

"You bastard, you're courting death!"

Wang Pan felt publicly humiliated and could not save face. He exploded instantly.

Killing intent surged in his eyes.

His body shot forward like a cannonball.

He slammed his palm viciously toward Chen Xuan!

Vast elemental power poured toward Chen Xuan like a raging storm.

A Form Creation Realm Lesser Completion cultivator attacking someone in the Nirvana Realm?

Was something wrong with his brain?

Chen Xuan could not even be bothered to look at him.

But everyone else

thought he had been scared senseless and had forgotten to dodge.

No one dared step forward to warn him, either.

There were only a handful of people present who dared offend the Wang Clan.

However, the very next moment,

a scene that left their jaws hanging unfolded.

Wang Pan abruptly stopped in midair several yards away from Chen Xuan for no apparent reason!

It was as though an invisible wall had blocked him.

He simply could not get any closer to Chen Xuan!

Immediately afterward, a massive hand of elemental power appeared.

It seized Wang Pan and crushed him to pieces in an instant!

Decisive and clean, without the slightest hesitation!

It all happened too quickly.

No one present had time to react!

No one had expected Chen Xuan to dare kill Wang Pan on the spot in front of the Wang Clan.

Could it be...

that he was not afraid of the Wang Clan's retaliation?

When Wang Yan saw this, his lungs nearly burst from rage.

You killed a young talent of the Wang Clan right in front of me.

You clearly had no regard for me at all.

Golden elemental power immediately surged from within him.

He was about to step forward and demand an explanation,

when an elder of the Wang Clan beside him grabbed him tightly with a trembling hand. "Young Master Wang Yan, don't act rashly!"

"He dared to kill Wang Pan before our very eyes. Not only did he disregard the Wang Clan, he has also provoked our dignity! I will definitely tear him to pieces!"

Wang Yan's face turned icy as golden elemental power swept out from his body.

Once he killed Chen Xuan,

that Spiritual Treasure would naturally be his as well!

Seeing Wang Yan's murderous bearing, everyone hurriedly retreated, afraid they would be caught up in the coming fight!

The Wang Clan elder sweated profusely as he hurriedly said, "Young Master Wang Yan, calm down. This man's strength is too great. Even if we make a move, we may not come out alive."

When Wang Yan heard that even a Creation Realm elder was not confident of taking Chen Xuan down,

wouldn't charging in himself be courting death?

He gripped the Great Luo Golden Spear tightly, his expression shifting several times.

Then, under the horrified gazes of the crowd, he directly retreated.

"???"

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

Since when had the Wang Clan become so easy to talk to?

One of their people had been killed,

yet they did not even dare utter a word!

"Buzz!"

At that moment, the final ancient rune on the Great Desolate Ancient Tablet dissipated.

A massive energy vortex, a hundred zhang wide, appeared on the ancient tablet.

The end of the vortex was filled with darkness and chill, giving off an exceedingly mysterious feeling.

"Look! The ancient tablet has opened!"

At once, everyone's eyes blazed with excitement.

They promptly forgot all about Wang Yan.

This made Wang Yan breathe a sigh of relief.

Damn it, good thing the ancient tablet had opened in time.

Otherwise,

his lifelong reputation would have been ruined here!

"Go!"

With a wave of his hand, Lin Langtian decided to enter the Ancient Tablet Space first.

The moment he shot forward, an invisible force directly sent him flying back.

Ding, Lin Langtian felt confused. Emotion Points +100

Lin Langtian looked ahead in confusion.

He asked in a low voice, "Mu Shi, what is going on? The ancient tablet has clearly opened, so why was I sent back?"

It was as though he had slammed headfirst into a wall.

Mu Shi warned, "Be careful. That man may have done this!"

Lin Langtian gritted his teeth. "Damn it, could he also be here for those things?"

"Who can say for sure?" Mu Shi could not determine it either.

Lin Langtian clenched his fists unwillingly and turned his head.

He saw that the people charging out behind him had also been blocked outside the ancient tablet by an invisible wall.

No matter what they did, they could not get in.

No matter how they bombarded it,

they simply could not break through.

Just as everyone was wondering what was going on,

Chen Xuan's voice rang out once more.

"Today's treasure hunt ends here. Other than the Lin Clan and the Huangpu Clan, everyone else..."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan swept his cold gaze over them. "If you don't get lost within ten breaths, you die! The countdown begins!"

(P.S. Not many people have been checking in after the chapters went premium. I don't know if anyone is even reading, and it's making me anxious.

Could you leave a number so I can see how many people are reading?

Also, thank you all for your monthly votes, recommendation votes, and to the bosses quietly following along.)
