I can't bring myself to tell Old Pavilion Master Huang about this. With the North Division Dao Field being disrupted like this today, how will I be able to maintain my foothold in Phoenix City in the future!
Before a hundred thoughts could even form, upon hearing those vulgar words, he immediately cursed inwardly: Who the hell is stirring things up again!
However, the cultivators at the rear Trading Hub paid no heed to the emotions of the two parties involved. A buzzing sound echoed throughout the North Division Dao Field, and everyone was shouting:
"It turns out that Yuan Changwu had long admired Branch Master Chen, but Branch Master Chen clearly looked down on him. Yuan Changwu was furious and came to the North Division Dao Field to argue with Second Master Yuan, which resulted in a fight between the two sides."
Wow! This is big news!
The usually stern and unapproachable Second Master Yuan was surprisingly a devoted lover!
In Phoenix City, he recklessly stirred up trouble, even disguising himself to enter the North Division Dao Field in his true form, all just to demonstrate his power to Branch Master Chen? Wasn't he afraid of Branch Master Chen's true form taking action?
As the saying goes, a man can be infatuated with love, and Second Master Yuan has truly lived up to that!
The city walls of the North Division Dao Field have been breached, and the two are still locked in a standoff. As the cultivators watched them, they had already imagined a melodramatic soap opera unfolding before their eyes.
The scattered cultivators were making a great commotion, and the atmosphere was already heated up. Their eyes darted back and forth between Yuan Changwu and Chen Yuping, and there was a hint of mockery in their gazes.
The atmosphere at the North Division Dao Field suddenly shifted, with the crowd cheering for Yuan Changwu from behind, their enthusiasm almost making them want to join in.
Yuan Changwu and Chen Yuping were speechless, while the cultivators from the Rogue Cultivators Association and the Pill Cauldron Sect looked extremely embarrassed. They were all asking themselves: Why did things turn out this way?
The two wanted to stop them, but these people were not under their control. They also remembered the cultivator who had repeatedly stirred up misunderstandings earlier, but now, in the dense crowd, they couldn't possibly find him.
Things suddenly went awry, filling both parties with anger. They looked at each other, each feeling that the other was at fault first.
A murderous glint flashed in Yuan Changwu's eyes as he spread his wings and slashed fiercely at the Raindrop City Wall. Meanwhile, Branch Master Chen of the North Division Dao Field, once again condensed water mist.
The water mist that had just been broken apart has now condensed and transformed into water droplets. The translucent water droplets swirl in the air, carrying with them a powerful force of resistance as they sweep across.
A continuous rumbling sound echoed inside the North Division Dao Field, as dust and water vapor were simultaneously stirred up by the energy shockwaves.
The thick mist and dust obscured Yuan Changwu's massive body; from a distance, only a few feathers on its head were clearly visible.
Meanwhile, rain and mist had once again blanketed the sky above the North Division Dao Field, with raindrops forming curtains that obscured the gaps in the city walls.
However, the rising dust within the city walls was already telling everyone that chaos had broken out inside the North Division Dao Field.
At this moment, all the cultivators Trading Hub at the rear were staring at the huge gap. They had followed Yuan Changwu not to show off their power, but to take advantage of the chaos during the battle between the two.
Now that the two cultivators at the Lesser Immortal Realm are attacking each other, they will inevitably be unable to extricate themselves from the battle. Therefore, the treasure vault within the North Division Dao Field should be without a powerful figure guarding it...
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions brightened. They all knew that Rogue Cultivators Association abundant Spirit Stone resources, but there were still cultivators from the Pill Cauldron Sect standing in their way.
"Brothers, charge! Second Master Yuan is tied up right now! The Rogue Cultivators Association's treasure trove is right behind us!"
Just as everyone was hesitating, another angry roar erupted from the crowd. This sentence caused a huge stir in the hearts of the cultivators, expressing what they were thinking.
This simple sentence was like a cat's claw scratching at the heart, instantly relieving the long-standing itch in everyone's hearts. They couldn't help but think to themselves: Brilliant!
Following these words, the cultivators at the Trading Hub didn't need to organize themselves; the dense crowd, carrying the Pill Cauldron Sect cultivators, surged towards the breach in the city walls of the North Division Dao Field.
In the chaos, countless cultivators simply charged towards the breach, and with their sheer numbers, they quickly turned the area North Division Dao Field Dojo into a complete mess.
The Pill Cauldron Sect cultivators were pushed to the forefront. The cultivators from the Trading Hub were initially brought there by them, but as their numbers increased, the cultivators from the Trading Hub quickly took the lead and subtly gained the upper hand outside the North Division Dao Field.
The cultivators hidden among the crowd, eager to stir up trouble, kept their words Rogue Cultivators Association, which made the cultivators at the Trading Hub always look anxious and happy.
They recklessly stormed into the North Division Dao Field. The dark mass of people resembled a crawling serpent. Once inside, they moved in unison, their bodies of varying thicknesses swaying as they engaged the North Division Dao Field Rogue Cultivators Association in battle.
The chaotic scene was completely out of control. Chen Yuping originally wanted to stop and stabilize her own position before making any further moves.
But Yuan Changwu gave her no chance. The black Luan Crane kept flapping its wings in the North Division Dao Field, its guillotine-like wings slashing fiercely at the clumps of rain and mist.
This forced Branch Master Chen to focus his mind and prepare for battle, leaving him only able to watch helplessly as the North Division Dao Field descended into chaos from the air.
The battle cries at the North Division Dao Field were deafening. Smoke and water vapor completely enveloped the city. The cultivators from the Trading Hub, the Rogue Cultivators Association, and the Pill Cauldron Sect were engaged in fierce battles. Countless cultivators had already fallen in the arena, and the thick stench of blood permeated the city.
Among a group of cultivators, Xu Long's figure moved quickly. He mingled with the cultivators in the Trading Hub and teased Yuan Changwu for a while. When he saw that the time was almost ripe, he caused a riot.
After entering the city, he did not linger in battle, but instead followed a group of seasoned veterans as they quickly traversed the interior of the North Division Dao Field. These cultivators were all people Xu Long had deliberately befriended at the Trading Hub.
They may lack strength, but their ability to assess situations is second to none in Phoenix City. Seeing that Yuan Changwu and Branch Master Chen were locked in a fierce battle, they planned to seize the treasure trove of the Rogue Cultivators Association.
Xu Long had to admire them. After entering the city, this group went straight down a road. It was as if they knew the location of the Rogue Cultivators Association's treasure vault. They avoided several places where cultivators were fighting as they passed through.
The group is now heading towards a secluded spot where the shouts of battle have subsided considerably, and the cultivator leading the way is beaming with joy.
Judging from his practiced manner, he must have done this kind of thing quite a few times before.
As Xu Long moved quickly, he subtly memorized the route. He extended his will to his side, knowing that although the place was secluded, he still had to be wary of being ambushed.
When he entered the city, he used his will to explore the North Division Dao Field and discovered that everyone's current location was not in the center of the Dojo.
Logically, the treasure vault should be located in the center of the dojo, but why is the treasure vault of the Rogue Cultivators Association somewhat off-center...?
"Fellow Daoists, the treasure vault lies ahead. Let us agree beforehand that entry depends on fate!"
Xu Long's thoughts were interrupted by someone's voice. He focused his attention and looked ahead, only to find that the group had arrived in front of a group of white buildings.
These white buildings resemble a solid fortress wall, surrounded by a bay of clear water. Beneath the water, something unusual seems to be stirring, and the water encircles the fortress wall, protecting it at its center.
Xu Long was secretly surprised: Is this the location of the treasure vault? They really put a lot of thought into it.
The constructed fortress walls seemed impregnable, and when he probed the azure waters before them, he felt as if they were bottomless.
Surrounded by bottomless blue waters and fortified walls, this treasure trove of the Rogue Cultivators Association has already deterred most cultivators from harboring any dissenting thoughts.
But none of the seasoned veterans present were ordinary cultivators!
Before Xu Long could even make a move, all the cultivators present simultaneously unleashed their Magic Power.
Making a move within the North Division Dao Field requires speed. They've found this place first, but other cultivators will surely arrive later.
Therefore, at this moment, before the dock, they could not spare their magical Magic Power and each grabbed their weapons to first explore the area before the blue water.
After confirming there was no threat underwater, he followed the trajectory of the weapon and darted out. As he approached the white dock wall, his magical Magic Power suddenly surged, and the weapon shot violently towards the dock wall.
While everyone else was moving, Xu Long stopped. Looking at the white walls of the dock and the clear blue water, he vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
I sensed something hidden in the clear water, but my willpower couldn't pinpoint it. And the white walls of the dock seemed far too quiet...
As he watched figures swiftly pass through the clear water and disappear into the white walls of the dock, he could even hear triumphant laughter emanating from within.
Presumably, the old foxes had seen the treasures that the Rogue Cultivators Association hidden in the fortress walls, which is why they laughed so Wuji.
At that moment, hurried footsteps came from behind Xu Long, and another group of people arrived anxiously in front of the white wall.
They still carried the lingering smell of blood, and when they heard laughter coming from inside the fortified wall, the faces of the newcomers changed drastically several times.
Without even glancing at Xu Long, who remained stationary, she leaped across the clear water and headed straight for the white cliff.
They had no eyes for the treasures hidden within the fortress walls and showed absolutely no regard for anything else.
After a fierce battle within the North Division Dao Field, they finally located the treasure vault, only to find that someone had beaten them to it. At this moment, they only wanted to quickly enter the treasure vault to search, and had no time to check for any dangers.
A beam of light swept swiftly across the azure water, and another burst of Wuji laughter echoed from within the dock walls. It seemed that only Xu Long had stopped in his tracks in the face of this opportunity.
He watched as people kept entering the white walled village. Thinking of the treasures inside, he couldn't help but feel a little impatient. After all, he came to the North Division Dao Field to intercept Spirit Stone resources, and he couldn't just watch others reap a bountiful harvest while he returned empty-handed.
Seeing more and more cultivators gathering before the clear water, Xu Long had no time to think.
He first extended his will to the water's surface, wary of any unknown dangers lurking beneath, and then followed a group of streaks of light towards the dock wall.
As he flew over the blue waters, Xu Long felt a vague unease in his heart for some reason.
Then a shrill scream came from the white dock, and the Wuji laughter just now came to an abrupt end. Xu Long was startled and immediately became alert!
However, several cultivators in the air were startled by the screams coming from inside the dock. Fearing an ambush, they stopped immediately without thinking.
The sound of "thump, thump, thump" rang out, and the cultivators who had stopped on the blue water were all instantly thrown into the water.
That bay of clear water already seemed eerie, and when the cultivators fell in, they were instantly submerged, without even a Kung Fu Hustle rising to the surface in the blink of an eye.
A chill ran through everyone. They hadn't thoroughly examined the pool of clear water when they leaped up, and only now, with problems arising, did they realize that it was surprisingly deep.
The reason in everyone's hearts was clouded by desire, and the clear water, which was like a jade belt, became a deadly weapon for them.
Xu Long felt a sense of foreboding; there was likely an ambush hidden within the white walls of the fortress, and he could not retreat from the emerald waters.
He had already explored this bay of clear water; he either had to cross it in one go or prepare to fall into the water—there was absolutely no possibility of stopping.
Xu Long naturally didn't want to fall into the water where there were unknown risks. After hearing the screams and seeing the cultivators fall into the water, he thought to himself: Oh no!
They couldn't stay in the air any longer; before this treasure trove, everyone was at a loss, unsure of what to do next.
With a determined heart, Xu Long moved forward instead of retreating, quickly rushing towards the white wall of the dock. At the same time, he activated his Heavenly Eye to see what kind of ambush was hidden within the wall.
"Ah! Mist Beast! Mist..."
Before Xu Long 'Heavenly Eye could probe inside, a terrified scream rang in his ears.
The voice was extremely shrill, as if the speaker had seen something terrifying, making Xu Long particularly nervous when it reached his ears.
But before he could finish his screaming words, his voice abruptly stopped behind him, as if his throat had been strangled, and he could no longer make a sound.
Xu Long cursed inwardly at these cultivators from the Trading Hub for being utterly useless; how could there be Mist Beast in Phoenix City!
They must have encountered some kind of demon, like a python, and became so nervous that they started shouting.
Xu Long was now almost inside the dock wall. He cursed as he turned around, his Heavenly Eye sweeping across the blue water.
In the azure water beneath them, shadowy figures floated, and ripples shimmered on the surface.
The eerie blue water was actually teeming with life, and when the Heavenly Eye opened and closed, the life in the blue water was clearly detected.
When the hissing sound came, Xu Long's expression changed drastically. A chill ran down his spine, the hairs on the back of his head stood on end, and a look of intense shock flashed in his eyes.
It really was Mist Beast!
When his Heavenly Eye opened, he saw countless giant blue pythons in this bay of clear water, and the shimmering scene just now was the reflection of their blue scales on the water's surface!
This bay of clear water was filled with giant blue pythons. Xu Long suddenly looked at the white walls of the dock and realized why the bay of clear water beneath him was so strange.
This river may not have originally been green; it was only because of the countless Mist Beast that inhabited it that their scales turned the river emerald green!
How could there be Mist Beast in Phoenix City!
