Chapter 47 Success
Chapter 47 Success
The sudden appearance of the ancient demon Hei Ming and his determination to obtain the "Heavenly Void Jade Book" were like pouring ice water into boiling oil, instantly igniting the already chaotic scene!
"Someone else!"
This person's aura... is extremely sinister; he is definitely not a benevolent being! He is a master of the demonic path!
"Who cares who they are! Anyone who dares to steal our treasure, we'll fight them all!"
The cultivators present did not immediately recognize Hei Ming's deliberately concealed and disguised ancient demonic aura, simply assuming he was a powerful and vicious demonic figure. Even so, in a place of such opportunity as the Void Heaven Palace, the sudden appearance of a formidable stranger intent on seizing a precious treasure was enough to make everyone consider him one of the primary threats!
In an instant, the number of magical weapons attacking Hei Ming suddenly increased! Black Horn King's "Mountain-Shattering Thunder Hammer" crashed down with the force of wind and thunder, while Jade Scale Lord's "Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda" unleashed strands of emerald light, and the Winged Tiger Demon and Lizard Demon spewed out their innate demonic fire and venom. The three from Tian Sha Continent seized the opportunity to join forces, once again conjuring a giant earthen-yellow palm to strike! They temporarily set aside their slight hostility towards demon cultivators and focused their attacks on this newly appeared and more threatening "demon"!
Hei Ming's face was gloomy. Although he was confident in his high cultivation level and had the Heavenly Treasure "Frosty Dragon Sword" in hand, he still felt immense pressure from the combined furious attacks of eight cultivators of the same level (from the early to mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm)! He let out a fierce roar, and the Frosty Dragon Sword in his hand erupted with astonishingly cold sword energy, transforming into a huge ice dragon phantom that surrounded him, barely blocking most of the attacks. However, he was also shaken so badly that his blood and qi surged, and his demonic energy surged. His disguise was almost shattered, revealing a trace of purer demonic intent. This caused the mid-stage Tian Sha cultivator who was closest to him to frown deeply and become very suspicious.
"This person's demonic arts... are incredibly strange and domineering!" The mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from the Tiansha Continent was secretly alarmed, but he had no time to investigate further at the moment.
"A bunch of ignorant fools, daring to block my way!" The Black Nether Demon's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He knew he had to finish this quickly, otherwise attracting more people or triggering stronger restrictions from the Void Heaven Palace would cause trouble. With a flicker of his body, he used his exquisite demonic arts to transform into three ethereal demonic shadows, each lunging towards the still-flipping "Heavenly Void Jade Book," the "Silver Talisman" on the jade platform, and the "Fiery Red Spear"! He intended to use his speed and clone technique to seize all three treasures simultaneously!
"Stop him!"
"The treasure is ours!"
How could the cultivators allow him to have his way? The attacks intensified. In particular, the page of the "Heavenly Void Jade Book" became the focus of the struggle. Black Horn King swung his hammer at a demonic shadow, Azure Scale Lord activated his pagoda to suppress it, and two Heavenly Sand cultivators also set aside to intercept it.
After initially disrupting the situation and initiating the chaotic battle, Wang Tianlong did not immediately join the siege of the "demonic cultivator" Hei Ming. His figure was like a ghost, weaving through the chaotic energy storm and the gaps between the countless supernatural powers. Relying on the extreme agility of the "Wind-Treading Technique" and the speed of the Sky-Treading Boots, he narrowly avoided several aftershocks of attacks.
His gaze was fixed on the page of the "Heavenly Void Jade Book," which was tumbling and tracing eerie arcs in the air, shaken by the collective energy of the crowd! He knew that this was the ancient demon's true target, and undoubtedly the most valuable treasure in the area! Although it seemed that everyone was vying for it, it was precisely because there were so many contenders that they were restraining each other, which might actually create a sliver of an opportunity!
He was waiting, waiting for the moment when everyone's old energy was exhausted and new energy had not yet been generated, or when their attention was completely drawn to other things!
Opportunities are fleeting!
Just as one of the demonic shadows in the Black Netherworld was violently shattered by the Black Horned King's thunder hammer, the Azure Scale Lord's pagoda-like light rope and the Heavenly Sand Cultivator's earthen-yellow giant palm simultaneously slammed into another demonic shadow. Meanwhile, the Winged Tiger Demon and the Lizard Demon clashed with the third demonic shadow in a struggle for the "Fiery Red Spear," erupting in a blinding burst of light—
That page of the "Heavenly Void Jade Book" was swept by a chaotic aftershock of spiritual energy, and like a rootless duckweed, it was thrown behind a palace pillar not far from where Wang Tianlong was hiding! That location was temporarily out of the center of the most intense battle!
"Now!"
Wang Tianlong's eyes flashed with a sharp light! The "Wind-Treading Technique" within his body was circulating wildly at an unprecedented speed, and the Sky-Treading Boots under his feet burst out with dazzling blue light. He seemed to have transformed into a real blue lightning bolt that ignored the barriers of space!
This was his trump card, an explosive escape technique that placed a tremendous burden on his mana and physical body, but its speed was enough to surpass any other escape technique of the same level in a short period of time! With a flash of green shadow, Wang Tianlong's figure almost disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, he appeared behind the pillar of the hall. His right hand, with five fingers like hooks, precisely grabbed the silver page that was still turning!
The book felt weightless yet incredibly heavy! The tadpole-like characters on it seemed to sense a new contact, their flow suddenly accelerating. A profound and mysterious aura, pointing directly to the Great Dao, instantly surged into Wang Tianlong's mind, clearing his soul. This was followed by a deeper shock and understanding—this thing was indeed extraordinary!
"Save it!" Without any hesitation, and without even having time to examine it closely, Wang Tianlong urged his mind and instantly stored the page of "Heavenly Void Jade Book" into his storage bracelet.
"He stole the Heavenly Jade Book!"
"You bastard! Stay here!"
You're asking for it!
It wasn't until Wang Tianlong succeeded and his figure faltered slightly due to the explosive escape technique that everyone in the arena realized the change had occurred! The nearest Black Nether Demon Shadow let out a deafening roar, abandoning the "Crimson Spear" that was about to be obtained, and its demonic claws, carrying a chilling aura that could tear through space, viciously clawed at Wang Tianlong's back! Black Horn King, Azure Scale Lord, Tian Sha cultivators, and the others were also shocked and enraged, and several attacks were launched at Wang Tianlong's location in quick succession!
"Walk!"
Wang Tianlong endured the stinging pain in his meridians caused by excessive use of magic power. His Sky-Stepping Boots flashed with spiritual light once more, and his body leaped forward like a fish, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow of the Black Nether Demon Claw. However, his left shoulder was still grazed by a sharp claw wind, shattering his protective aura and leaving several deep wounds that exposed bone and were wrapped in cold demonic energy! He grunted and used the momentum to lunge forward, simultaneously throwing back the last few "Minor Teleportation Talismans" and "Illusion Talismans" that he had already held in his hand!
"Buzz!" "Pfft!"
Spatial fluctuations and a flurry of phantom images suddenly erupted, disrupting the group's pursuit once again.
Without turning his head, Wang Tianlong endured the excruciating pain and frantically poured his remaining magic power into the Sky-Stepping Boots. He transformed into a much dimmer but still incredibly swift streak of azure light, rushing desperately towards the entrance of a narrow corridor that he had previously scouted out—a seemingly hopeless path! He had to shake off his pursuers as soon as possible, treat his wounds, and find an absolutely safe place to hide!
"Chase him! He's injured, he can't have gone far!"
"Hand over the Heavenly Void Jade Book!"
Black Nether, the Winged Tiger Demon, the Lizard Demon, and an unwilling early-stage Heavenly Sand cultivator almost simultaneously transformed into streaks of light and gave chase! Black Horn King, Jade Scale Lord, and the other two Heavenly Sand cultivators were a step behind. They glanced at the remaining "Fiery Red Spear" and "Silver Talisman" in the hall, then at the pursuing group. After a slight hesitation, they ultimately chose to seize the remaining treasures first. After all, although the Heavenly Void Jade Book was valuable, whether they could catch up with and snatch it back from the cunning Wind Cultivator and the Demon Lord was still unknown.
