Chapter 465 - Wins and Losses

That enormous wolf suddenly regained his original shape. He did a full-body stretch, and spoke with a fierce voice: “Sun G.o.d Church, Mu Yefeng.”

The young person wrapped in the gale laughed, though their features were still hidden in the winds. Their voice was also breezy and fleeting: “Flying Cloud Palace, Gao Hongyu.”

The young man with a figure as slim as the edge of a blade had a hoa.r.s.e voice: “Heavenly Saber Mountain, Rong Dao.”

The mysterious young lady in the purple dress sounded melodious: “Star Point Temple, Tantai Lianxing.”

Finally, Gongyi Tianheng smiled: “Ten Ultimates Sect, Gongyi Tianheng.”

The five people quickly announced their own origins one after another. At the same time, they rapidly gained an understanding of the backgrounds of their counterparts.

There was no doubt that everyone’s backers were out of the ordinary.

Tianheng’s Ten Ultimates Sect was a veteran silver-ranked organization. Its robust acc.u.mulations were not lower than that of gold-ranked organizations with shallow foundations. Likewise, the amount of ultimate knowledge it held wasn’t fewer than that of veteran gold-ranked organizations.

The Sun G.o.d Church and Flying Cloud Palace were both considered organizations that had just been promoted to the gold rank within the past several thousand years. They were cla.s.sified as the type whose foundations were comparatively shallow.

Heavenly Saber Mountain was a silver-ranked organization, too. Its qualifications were inferior to that of Ten Ultimates Sect, and there were fewer people as well. However, because each person within the organization was a pure saber-wielder, the strength of each combatant was very formidable, and powerhouses easily appeared. This also prevented others from underestimating them.

As for Star Point Temple, it was also cla.s.sified as a silver-ranked organization. While there were rumors that its strength was inferior to that of Heavenly Saber Mountain, this organization had a unique skill that could draw power from the stars. It was also adept at observing the aspects of the celestial bodies and making divinations. Every disciple within the temple was steeped in mysteries that caused others to pay attention to them. Many gold-ranked organizations didn’t rashly go to provoke this force.

As a result, it really wasn’t surprising that the five of them won so decisively.

After getting a good look at one another, the five quickly gained some understandings of the other four people.

During the battles just a while ago, those fights could be counted as nothing more than handling a butcher’s cleaver with ease. At the same time, it was hard to infer what degree the true strengths of the remaining people had reached.

— Now that the other prodigies had been weeded out, how should they proceed?

A faint streak of light flashed through their eyes. Shortly thereafter, all of them took action!

Five exceedingly mighty surges of power suddenly blasted out. Among them, the directions of four great powers headed towards Tianheng. As for the other one, it was rus.h.i.+ng toward Heavenly Saber Mountain’s Rong Dao.

Down below, Gu Zuo watched with great alarm: Big brother!

What was going on? Why were the four of them ganging up on his big brother?!

Fortunately, at almost the exact same time, Tianheng’s other hand drew out a strange set of motions in front of him. Terrifying qi energies arose from these motions, and formed a huge, invisible defense that warded off all parts of Tianheng’s body. When those attacks arrived, this defense displayed its greatest function, and weakened those attacks by fifty percent. After that, Tianheng’s other hand turned around to counterattack, unleas.h.i.+ng an enormous blood-colored fist mark. This fist mark contained a boundless, mighty force and concealed a ferocious and violent poison. In a head-on collision, it caught those four weakened attacks completely!

Only, when all was said and done, these were the powerful attacks of four prodigies. Although Tianheng reacted extremely quickly, and his style was inexhaustibly mighty, he was still pushed back several steps under such powers. A rivulet of blood trickled down the corner of his mouth.

As for that Rong Dao, he had been attacked by Tianheng. The thin, single-edged dagger in his hand hurriedly chopped down, and his whole body rapidly retreated. After chopping several times, that attack had been thoroughly cut to ribbons.

At this time, his consumption wasn’t small. His flushed appearance was prominent against his pallid facial features.

Once these prodigies attacked, they didn’t continue taking action.

In actuality, the previous round of attacks was originally a tacitly understood form of probing.

After the gazes of these prodigies swept across one another, they had already made a decision. Limited to a single attack, they would handle the opponent who was the most fearsome in their hearts — That’s right. With the pride of these pinnacle prodigies, they definitely wouldn’t attack the person whom they believed was the weakest. On the contrary, the tougher the challenge, the stronger they themselves would appear.

Although the strength that Tianheng previously revealed was only the tip of the iceberg, these prodigies had incredibly keen foresight, and had long seen that there was something extraordinary within it. Thus, the four of them unexpectedly took the same course of action. They felt that Tianheng was the hardest to deal with, which led to the scene of these four besieging one person.

After making their moves, the four prodigies realized that the others had the same thought process as themselves. It was only natural that they were somewhat surprised. However, when Tianheng blocked all of these attacks and only suffered a mild, percussive injury, this bit of surprise turned into shock — He was actually so powerful!

Of course, after this single round of strikes pa.s.sed, those four didn’t take action again.

It was Tianheng who possessed this capability. Although they wouldn’t feel envious of him, the pressure this brought them wasn’t small. In their hearts, they were even more determined. Once they went back, they had to practice harder and longer, and study more ultimate knowledge. This way, they could have greater certainty the next time they confronted one another!

As for Tianheng, he was entertaining different thoughts. Among the other four people, Rong Dao specialized in a school of martial arts where his blade had been honed to be incomparably swift and fierce. This was suitable for Tianheng to try out his opponent’s attacks, so he targeted Rong Dao.

Sure enough, Rong Dao lived up to the reputation of his Heavenly Saber Mountain. After several cuts, Tianheng’s probing attack had been shattered. Although it consumed quite a bit of energy, there was a trace of fighting intent, which had been forcibly restrained.

When everyone stopped, the other four prodigies looked at Tianheng with complicated gazes.

Tianheng had a smile on his face, and paid them no mind.

Shortly thereafter, Mu Yefeng, Gao Hongyu, and Tantai Lianxing moved. Each of them brought out two streaks of black light, which headed straight to Tianheng.

Tianheng extended a hand to catch them. There were six black dragon jades in total.

Just now, even though that round of fighting lasted for only a moment, because Tianheng took on four strikes alone, this was considered a small loss for the others. As a result, these black dragon jades were Tianheng’s winnings — If these pinnacle prodigies didn’t own up to such a trivial matter, they would lose face. However, because Rong Dao similarly received Tianheng’s attack, although he wasn’t as valiant as Tianheng, payment for Tianheng’s winnings also wasn’t necessary.

Afterwards, Tantai Lianxing opened her mouth. Her voice had a distant, faraway quality, and it carried a type of indescribable and hazy tone: “During the battles of the Prodigy Monument, this Lianxing shall give Brother Gongyi a respectful welcome.”

Tianheng was slightly stumped for words.

The Prodigy Monument? He didn’t know anything about this matter.

However, he didn’t reveal anything. Instead, he smiled: “When the time comes, I’ll be there.”

At the same moment, Rong Dao and the others glanced at Tianheng. They tossed out a sentence, and turned around to leave: “When the time comes, we’ll see who’s stronger!”

After that, each of them flashed away, and went back to their subordinates.

Tianheng tilted his body forward, dropped down, and stood next to Gu Zuo. When he met Gu Zuo’s concerned expression, his gaze softened: “Ah Zuo, don’t worry. Just now, that was just a percussive injury. It’s not a big deal.”

Gu Zuo grabbed Tianheng’s wrist, and gave a careful examination. He only felt rea.s.sured when his family’s big brother took a medicinal pill: “Why did they all attack big brother?”

Tianheng chuckled: “It’s probably because they were unable to peer into my inside information. They were just curious.”

Indeed, this reason did account for a large extent.

Gu Zuo quickly figured it out, and shook his head: “Fortunately, big brother is powerful enough.”

Tianheng smiled. He enjoyed this kind of praise.

Following this, the two commanded the numerous subordinates, and prepared to go back.

Gu Zuo curiously asked: “Speaking of which, is the fighting over those black-colored, dragon-shaped jade stones the same as fighting over the qi veins? How many qi veins did big brother capture?”

Tianheng took out a black dragon jade from his sleeve, and placed it in Gu Zuo’s hand: “Ah Zuo, take a look.”

At this time, Gu Zuo carefully inspected this jade stone, and discovered that it was pure black in its entirety. It seemed to be dragon-shaped, but in fact, this form wasn’t that detailed or exquisite. It only gave others a general feeling of being like a dragon. At the same time, there was a fine length of thread on the inside. Within was a dense qi stream that bubbled and moved. It was as if the profound qi was boiling.

Of course, these things weren’t considered unusual. It was just that a sensation suddenly arose in Gu Zuo’s heart the instant he got close to the black dragon jade. It was like some kind of abstruse mystery was whispering many pieces of information to him.

This object really was called a Black Dragon Jade. It was a type of jade stone that was naturally produced when a profound qi vein came into being. These jade stones were hidden together with the profound qi vein. Unless there were drastic changes, no differences would occur. However, if the profound qi vein emerged, and it was disturbed by the qi emissions of the outside world, the jade stones would scatter and escape in all directions. Within the time it took a joss of incense to burn, they would dissipate back into the world’s ambient qi.

During this period of time, if someone captured a Black Dragon Jade, it would never dissipate again. Obtaining the Black Dragon Jades was equivalent to having the ability to take away the profound qi veins, but if these jades weren’t captured, then the profound qi veins would be rooted here forever. No one would be able take them away — If anyone wanted to utilize the profound qi veins, they could only come to this place and accompany the qi veins.

Once Gu Zuo finished listening, he was speechless: “The things nurtured between heaven and earth are truly miraculous…”

No wonder any fighting over profound qi veins had evolved to become fighting over Black Dragon Jades. This was quite convenient.

After they gained an understanding of the Black Dragon Jades, everyone had already departed from this area, and arrived inside Hyssop Heart City.

At this very moment, the streets were filled with the people who had left their homes. The city was gradually restored to a bustling and lively state. However, when others caught sight of Tianheng and his group, there were still some people who showed fearful looks. They only returned to normal when Tianheng and the others pa.s.sed by.

This kind of treatment made Gu Zuo, who felt that his own temperament was pretty good, to not know whether to laugh or cry.

Many prodigies had gathered in this place. As far as Hyssop Heart City was concerned, this was probably the same as a catastrophic flood or a wave of ferocious beasts… When one thought about it, this also wasn’t unusual. If there were several more people like Huo Li, it would be strange not to be despised by others.

Gu Zuo didn’t care about these things. Instead, he hastened the journey with Tianheng and the others, and swiftly returned to Ten Ultimates Sect.

Along the way, there were teleportation arrays that connected each city. As a result, even though Hyssop Heart City was located in a region that wasn’t close to the Ten Ultimates Domain, they returned very quickly.

And the first order of business after coming back was to pay a visit to the Blood Transformation Palace Master.
