So the Lang Ya Board is still working at this area, the dead ones will still be revived by the Lang Ya Board and ... Huh?
Zhong Yue suddenly stopped what he was doing as he saw a banner somewhere not far in front of him, the flag hanging on the pole flapped with the wind, and the Azure Dragon drawings on the flag seemed alive!
It was the Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner that those Zhong Li Celestial Race's people wanted so badly!
Zhong Yue's heart thumped as he looked at the banner blankly and when he unconsciously approached it, he felt that its power was far tamer and restrained when compared to other divine weapons.
Godly weapon! This is definitely an incredibly amazing godly weapon!
Zhong Yue cleared his throat, and he quickly grabbed and hurled the banner into his Yuan Shen Secret Realm before he walked away with a rapid heartbeat.
This banner was definitely something incredible! Those Martial Heavenly Master said that the banner was a crucial part of the arrangements that Xin Hou made previously to summon the mausoleum.
He then moved as fast as lightning towards Qiu Jin'er and his psyche gushed out. He lifted the girl up and said, "Junior martial sister, let's go, quickly!"
The entire Zhong Li Celestial Race had been planning this for a long time, and from that, the Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner was no doubt something important to them.
And aside from the importance of this banner to them, just the role of this banner as the core of the Jade Dragon Camp’s array would be able to show the value of this godly weapon!
This was also the first time Zhong Yue got his hands on a godly weapon in perfect condition!
The Lang Ya Board will definitely revive those Zhong Li Celestial Race Martial Heavenly Masters, and they will rush back here as fast as they can for this banner. We have to go now!
Zhong Yue moved faster and faster, rushing out from the Jade Dragon Camp like the wind while carrying Qiu Jin'er. They traveled all the way up to the mountain and charged straight into the continental where the Heavenly Monarch Residence was located.
With his steadily increasing speed, they started to get closer and closer to their destination.
At the same time, the revived Zhong Li Celestial Race Martial Heavenly Masters immediately gathered together, sat down and started recovering their power with serious expressions.
On the other hand, the head of Xia Family ordered, "Contact Elder You and Elder Quan immediately, dispatch to the Jade Dragon Camp and retrieve the Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner. Remember, we can't afford any mistakes!"
One of the member from Xia Family nodded, took out a mirror and started writing down a few sentences on the mirror. Meanwhile, a magnate figure of the Zhong Li Celestial Race who was standing at one of the guardian camps suddenly took out a mirror which sentences started emerging on the mirror, and his face changed immediately. He then flew up straight into the air and began rushing towards the Jade Dragon Camp as fast as lightning.
At the same time, Zhong Yue who was traveling towards his destination on the ocean suddenly had his face changed.
Hu——-
As soon as he saw an old man shrouding in flame flying towards the Jade Dragon Camp, his face changed and he immediately turned around towards the Jade Dragon Camp as well.
The old man, who was the magnate figure of the Zhong Li Celestial Race just now immediately had his psyche scanned through Zhong Yue thoroughly before he continued his mission.
After the old man disappeared from his vision, Zhong Yue felt relieved, and he turned back again, rushing towards the Divine Jungle.
Some moments later, in the Divine Jungle, Zhong Yue held the propitious lantern in his hand while the lantern screamed, “Hero, please don’t kill me, I swear I saw nothing!”
Qiu Jin’er on the side who pitied the lantern said, “Senior martial brother….”
Zhong Yue however, shook his head and said, “But this lantern knows too much….”
The lantern immediately shouted, “Spare me, please! I still have….”
Zhong Yue interrupted it and said, “Spit out the head in your tummy.”
The lantern quickly spat out the head, and as soon as the head left the body of the lantern, its face disappeared, and the lantern was no longer capable of talking.
Zhong Yue then smashed the head spat out by the lantern, and he released the lantern, which then flew far away stupidly.
He then had his clothes wrapped around the head of Qiu Jin'er and brought her all the way out of the Divine Jungle. Not long later, the dimensional crack out of this place could already be seen, and Zhong Yue said, "As soon as he left this place, we will leave the Lesser Void World as soon as possible. If we encountered any interrogation, we have to say that we had not been to the army camps at all!"
Chapter 288: Trapped In The Lesser Void World |
Qiu Jin'er's heart thumped quickly to Zhong Yue''s word and she nodded her head quickly. She was no stupid person as she instantly figured out that something shocking happened during the brief period that Zhong Yue left her to search for Ao Shanshan!
Her eyes had recovered during that time, and she was able to see again.
Outside of the Lesser Void World where the Lang Ya Board was located, Qi Practitioners were revived, and some among them left, but there were also others from the other places that rushed towards the Lang Ya Board.
The Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner was way too dangerous right now, which was why Zhong Yue wanted to leave so badly, but at the rate things are progressing now, he had no choice but to slow down his pace to avoid detection.
On the other hand, when the old man that was shrouded in fire arrived at the Jade Dragon Camp, he started writing something on the mirror with cold sweat all over his forehead after he tried searching around for the banner to no avail. After that, he quickly flew into the air and charged straight into the White Tiger, Phoenix and the other camps.
And somewhere far away outside of this planet, another elder who had his orders from the clan master, Elder Quan took out a mirror, and his face changed as he charged into the Divine Jungle.
After another moment, Elder You flew out from the planet and he headed straight to the vast ocean to search for Qi Practitioners that left before him while the other Qi Practitioners in the White Tiger, Phoenix, Xuan Wu and the other camps were all beaten to death after being interrogated.
As the two elders proceeded with their mission, Qi Practitioners were seized, interrogated and killed one after another by the two elders to find out the culprit who took the Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner.
While they continued their mission, the same Martial Heavenly Master under the Lang Ya Board took out his mirror, and upon receiving the latest news, he became incensed and furious. He then stood up and looked around.
“Big Brother! The banner has been stolen!”
As he shouted, the other Martial Heavenly Masters around him all stood up furiously.
"Elder You and Elder Quan are interrogating every Qi Practitioner they come across, but they have yet to find who the culprit is!"
As soon as the Martial Heavenly Master finished what he was saying, there was a huge influx of revived Qi Practitioners, all of whom started cursing at the Zhong Li Celestial Race's actions!
Upon seeing this, one of the Martial Heavenly Master said in worry, "The two elders had killed too many of them, I'm afraid that there will be an incident if we continue to slaughter them wantonly!"
The clan master of the Zhong Li Celestial Race humphed and as he looked at the countless Qi Practitioners under the Lang Ya Board. He said softly, "I am well aware of Elder You and Elder Quan's intentions, and I think that they did nothing wrong. The ancestors of the Zhong Li Celestial Race have been planning everything for the past five million years to obtain this Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner. We must not lose this banner!"
One Martial Heavenly Master said with a worried expression, "But big brother, there are too many Qi Practitioners and among them are those from the dragon race, the huge clans of East, South, North Barrens, and other large factions. If we are not careful enough, we might draw the ire of all of these factions, and I'm afraid that our Zhong Li Celestial Race…."
"Don't worry. The two elders are only killing those who possess the capabilities of stealing the Azure Dragon Cloud Marked Banner in order to gather information about the thief through the Lang Ya Board."
The clan master then said calmly, "Besides, none of them would've escaped with all of those precious items they collected anyway. One of the Lang Ya Board's main functions is to record details of all revived Qi Practitioners. With this, the Zhong Li Celestial Race has plenty of leverage over them."
His psyche then flooded outwards and flowed into the Lang Ya Board to access this information, and his face turned pale almost instantly.
"The thief who stole the banner is still alive, he escaped death from the two elders, and he is yet to be revived…. He must still be inside!"
"Heed my order! Seal the Lesser Void World and the Lang Ya Board, go through each and single Qi Practitioner thoroughly! Make those who wish to leave this place to open up their Yuan Shen Secret Realm and any items that are related to space and dimension!"
This is bad! Thought Zhong Yue when he and Qiu Jin'er arrived at the Lang Ya Board, only to discover that the Zhong Li Celestial Race Qi's Practitioners had set up a blockade that restricted anyone from exiting the Heavenly Monarch Residence.
Their situation wasn't helped when they found out that the Zhong Li Celestial Race had sealed the Lesser Void World's exit!
In no time, rumors spread among the Qi Practitioners; some said the Zhong Li Celestial Race was plotting to rob everyone of their treasures, some said they wanted to capture every Qi Practitioner that entered the Heavenly Monarch Residence. Many other rumors made the rounds, but they all had one common thread: all of them gave rise to fear in the Qi Practitioners who were trapped, resulting in them assaulting the Zhong Li Celestial Race, stirring up chaos everywhere.
Instead of trying to leave recklessly, Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin'er patiently as the situation progressed to its current state.
Qiu Jin'er then said worryingly, "Senior martial brother, what if they don't let us leave and keep the exits sealed…."
"The Zhong Li Celestial Race does not have enough power to keep everyone from all the different races sealed inside here. Eventually, the situation will reverse once the pressure on the Zhong Lie Celestial Race becomes too much for them to bear. Besides, if we look so eager to leave now, it would draw suspicion, and we might end up exposing ourselves. All we have to do is wait for another few more days until the Zhong Li Celestial Race has no choice but to let everyone go."
Time passed slowly, and in these few days, more and more Qi Practitioners gathered in front of the Lang Ya Board. All of them were furious at the Zhong Li Celestial Race's outrageous acts. Meanwhile, more and more representatives from the Dragon Race, Bai Zhe, West Barren and the other factions arrived. The Zhong Li Celestial Race was facing increasing pressure from all sides.
Boom——-
The Lesser Void World trembled, and when everyone looked up into the sky, they saw that the dimensional crack in the sky started to tremble vigorously, and it shrunk gradually.
After its appearance about twenty days ago, the godly weapons and the Martial Divine Master of the Zhong Li Celestial Race could no longer sustain the immense pressure, and they could no longer maintain their power output to sustain the dimensional crack. At this rate, the crack would disappear in no time, and the Heavenly Monarch Residence would vanish again until its next emergence.
"Does the Zhong Li Celestial Race want to face genocide?"
Ao Fenglou smirked and said, "The Martial Heavenly Masters of Zhong Li Celestial Race may be strong, but they are still not strong enough to go against the entire world! If you seal us at the Heavenly Monarch Residence, then you will face the wrath of every other race out there!"
The other elders from the dragon and other races immediately nodded in agreement to Ao Fenglou's words.
With that, the Zhong Li Celestial Race had no choice but to remove their people stationed at the entrance and exit of the Heavenly Monarch Residence and allow everyone to enter and exit the Lesser Void World.
Boom boom boom——-
In a short moment, as the last Qi Practitioner stepped out of the Heavenly Monarch Residence, the godly weapons and Martial Divine Master, that were holding the dimensional crack, immediately scattered. And the crack disappeared along with the Heavenly Monarch Residence.
However, although the Zhong Li Celestial Race gave in, they insisted on sealing the gates of the lesser void world, prohibiting anyone from leaving unless they let the Zhong Li Celestial Race’s people check thoroughly.
In their trip into the Heavenly Monarch Residence, the Qi Practitioners all had considerable harvests. Some obtained shattered pieces of the godly weapons, and some managed to obtain some abnormally strong treasures after accidentally entering an unknown dimension in the Heavenly Monarch Residence. Others gained access to the royal kitchen to find various magical herbs, while some encountered the phantoms of their ancestors to acquire lost inheritances from them.
However, based off of the Zhong Li Celestial Race's conduct, everyone was worried that they would be robbed of the treasures that they had risked their lives for.
But there was also news saying that with the emergence of the Heavenly Monarch Residence, some of them killed there were truly dead.
Among them were quite an amount of Heavenly Dharma level individuals and even one of the magnate Qi Practitioner from Zhong Li Celestial Race! They were all killed at places beyond the Lang Ya Board's reach.
Although there were many that died in the Heavenly Monarch Residence, everyone was busy talking about their gains and the Zhong Li Celestial Race's despicable acts.
Meanwhile, in the Atman Body level Lesser Void City, Zhong Yue whispered to Qiu Jin'er, "Junior martial sister, the Zhong Li Celestial Race will not stop here, they might probably send people to check through every Qi Practitioner individually. We have to lay low, or the Zhong Li Celestial Race will slaughter us as an example."
Qiu Jin'er nodded quickly and replied, "I understand!"
Suddenly, a huge board flew across the skies of the eight Lesser Void Worlds and stopped on the air above Lesser Void City. This board was the Warrior Board of the Lang Ya Board!
Then, another board flew across the skies and stopped beside the Warrior Board. This time, it was the Godlike Board. The two boards were both used to expand the dimensional crack, but with the crack having vanished, the two boards returned to their original place.
"The Zhong Shan Clan's member has entered the Godlike Board!" shouted someone in shock.
"Which Zhong Shan Clan's member?" asked the other shocked bystanders.
“The Zhong Shan Clan’s member that slaughtered us before the appearance of the Heavenly Monarch Residence! That one from the Great Wilderness’ Swords Gate!”
“That ruthless demon?”
“The sword demon?”
Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin'er were both stunned, and when they looked at the Godlike Board, they were both speechless while Qiu Jin'er murmured, "Senior martial brother, now it is impossible for you to keep a low profile…."
“What can I do about it….”
Qiu Jin’er nodded and replied, “You can only blame yourself for being so outstanding and ascending into the Godlike Board just like that.”
Zhong Yue replied, “I should have acted more carefully.”
Suddenly, a laugh could be heard, and a lovely fragrance wafted into their noses. Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin'er looked around, and they saw a pretty lady walking towards them. Lotuses formed under her feet with every step she took; she appeared exquisitely elegant and graceful. That lady was the Tian Mofei from the demon race.
At the same time, another few auras could be sensed, and Zhong Yue saw Xiao Chusheng, Bai Canghai, Jiao Qingtu, and Zhu Jiangyue standing not far away from them. Other than them, Zhong Yue also saw a smiling celestial race young man standing among them but as compared to the others, this young man had a gentle smile on his face, and when he saw Zhong Yue looking at him, he smiled and nodded towards Zhong Yue.
Zhong Yue quickly smiled back and nodded back towards the young man and after both of them looked away from each other, Zhong Yue’s face turned incredibly serious as he thought to himself, Who is this man?
Meanwhile, somewhere far away, Zhu Jushan saw Zhong Yue. When he wanted to approach Zhong Yue, he quickly stopped walking, and his face changed as he saw the young celestial race man.
Bixie!
He is here as well!
Senior martial brother Zhong's new position in the Godlike Board must have attracted him! Could it be that this guy thinks that only those on the Godlike Board are worthy of fighting him?
Chapter 289: The Best Or Nothing |
Qiu Jin'er exerted her bravery and defended Zhong Yue, "Senior martial siblings, my senior martial brother didn't renege on his words at all. He did leave the first place of the Warrior Board to you all. Look, my senior martial brother is now in the Godlike Board, you have all returned to your usual ranks, there really isn't a need to challenge my senior martial brother anymore."
Their faces turned dark and gloomy as Xia Shengchu, Jiao Qingtu, and the others heard her words. Even the ever-smiling Tianmo Concubine had a sudden urge to kill the innocent young maiden and shut her mouth forever.
Every time the good-hearted Qiu Jin'er tried to convince them and resolve the conflicts, her words were blunt to the point of driving them insane.
Tianmo Concubine was grinding her teeth as she forced a smile and said, "Little sister from the Qiu family, your words somehow have quite a sting to them!"
