Chapter 714: Chapter 402 Spiritual Ancestor!
Through the intricacies of the underground labyrinth.
Guided by the Earth Fiend Formation Flag, Yan Hong had determined Chen Mu’s position, but this sense was not clear, merely a vague directional awareness. Only within a certain proximity could it bee clear.
At a rough estimate, Chen Mu was still over a hundred miles away.
If on the surface, a hundred miles would not be considered far, a moment’s journey for a Grandmaster, but in this plex terrain underground, with the Xunmu roots present, even a Grandmaster could not bulldoze through. Thus, a hundred miles could not be considered a short distance.
Yan Zhengyang’s group, with Yan Hong at the lead, headed towards Chen Mu’s position. During their journey, they twisted and turned within the caverns. Despite their high speed, unexpected events occurred even faster. Before they could clearly sense Chen Mu’s whereabouts, another two fell!
Yan Hong’s plexion grew even uglier.
Looking at the current situation, it was likely that the Spiritual Ancestor of the Spirit People Race hadn’t merely ‘stumbled upon’ their group and their separation; he might have been premeditated, having noticed them a while back, but held back until they were sufficiently scattered to launch his attack, using the terrain’s advantage and his speed to kill everywhere.
Fortunately, as the group progressed, Yan Hong finally sensed Chen Mu’s location through the main flag of the Earth Fiend Formation Flag, within a hundred miles.
But at the next moment.
“Your Highness, be careful!”
A low shout from Yan Zhengyang was heard as he parried a white magnificent sword in front of Yan Hong, swinging it vigorously towards the front.
Acpanied by a boom.
Chaos reigned in the cavern as it collapsed all around, and before they knew what was happening, Yan Zhengyang and Yan Hong were both swept backwards, slamming into the cavern wall behind them, nearly embedding into it as they each spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yan Zhengyang was a top Grandmaster, and although Yan Hong’s strength was just shy of that level, as a member of the Royal Family wielding the main flag of the Earth Fiend Formation Flag, she was no less powerful than Yan Zhengyang. And yet, together, they were overwhelmed in an instant, sent flying, unable to contend.
Even those extraordinary Grandmasters ranked in the top ten could not achieve this.
The identity of the newer was almost beyond question.
The Spiritual Ancestor,
Ling Huan!
“Earth Fiend, form up!”
With blood still at the corner of her mouth, and her figure in a sorry state embedded in the rock, Yan Hong reacted swiftly, waving the main flag of the Earth Fiend Formation Flag in her hand. In an instant, including Liu Qingyan, many nearby Grandmasters were covered in the light of the Earth Fiend Formation Flag.
All present were Grandmasters, and despite the sudden upheaval and the shock to their spirits, their reactions were all extremely quick. Almost everyone raised their Earth Fiend Formation Flag in the first instance. In an instant, powerful Yuan Gang Inner Strength surged through the connected flags, forming an intertwined Earth Fiend array that spread out like a net.
Whoosh!
Almost at that very moment, a shadowy silhouette flashed past, targeting Liu Qingyan on the outer edge.
This move was incredibly fast and even with Liu Qingyan’s strength, she could only catch a glimpse of the residual image, having no time to distinguish the opponent’s moves. She had to mobilize the Vigorous force with the Earth Fiend Formation Flag, sweeping it forward.
Boom!!!
A beam of cyan light spread, like a Palm Imprint falling, colliding with the light of the Earth Fiend emanating from Liu Qingyan. The clash of the two forces erupted with a mountain-shattering roar, pulverizing the surrounding cavern.
Since the Earth Fiend Formation Flag had been fully activated, their Vigorous Inner Strength was almost entirely linked through the formation. Even if they could not fully merge, if they could bine just ten or twenty percent of their strength, that would be far stronger than any top Grandmaster by many times. Hence, Liu Qingyan staggered back several steps, clearly at a disadvantage, but not overwhelmed in a single strike.
It was through this collision.
That everyone clearly saw the newer, a spirit human with green skin and an aged appearance, whose overwhelming aura filled the air; standing there as if fused with the natural world, every action seeming to wield The Power of Heaven and Earth. It was indeed the Spiritual Ancestor of the Spirit People Race, Ling Huan!
“…”
Unable to kill Liu Qingyan with a single strike and being resisted instead, a flicker of surprise crossed Ling Huan’s eyes, but he did not hesitate to strike again, his figure shifting as he pointed at another person.
With hundreds of years of life, he had fought against numerous groups of Grandmasters who had intruded Xunmu Cave Heaven countless times, well aware that these beings from ‘Da Xuan’ and ‘Outer Sea’ had various methods, many of which he had experienced before.
Hum!!
At Ling Huan’s Realm, martial arts and Cultivation Techniques seemed to lose their importance, his simple gestures carrying immense power. A casual flicker of his finger was like turning decay into a miraculous display, with The Power of Heaven and Earth surging madly toward him, Solidifying Refinement into a towering finger, stretching several zhang, aiming to kill another Grandmaster, Hou Cheng.
Hou Cheng’s plexion changed dramatically, a gravely serious look in his eyes. In this moment, he dared not use his own techniques to resist and simply raised the Earth Fiend Formation Flag, greeting the attack with pure Yuan Gang force.
In an instant.
A surge of dull yellow Earth Fiend light burst forth, cascading like a waterfall, colliding with the approaching majestic finger amidst a resounding boom. The nearby earth shattered inch by inch; even a few extremely tough and sturdy Xunmu roots hidden in the mire broke apart under the residual force of the collision, snapping and cracking noise resounded.
