'Destroyed Metal Powder?! What the heck is that?!'
Even though Happy did not know what the Dharma protector with the silver saber said, once he mentioned Heaven Crystal, even if he were slow in the head, he could guess that he had used a unique method to figure out that Happy had Heaven Crystal with him!
He was shocked.
Whoosh!
Without another word, he tapped against the ground. He had to widen the distance between them and run, since it was the only way for him to live!
"Haha! And where do you think you're going in Sky Demon Secret Cave?!" The Dharma protector with the silver saber laughed madly and chased after Happy while he gave orders to the old Dharma protector with the gold saber behind him.
"Hold back that Fire Qilin. I'll kill the boy, and when we have Heaven Crystal, we'll work together to kill that Fire Qilin."
Their main goal for coming to Sky Demon Secret Cave was for Fire Qilin's scales and blood.
Ever since an accident occurred at Heaven Shaker Fortress, their relationship with the Nangong Clan and Sword Sect became very tense. Many sects in the world of martial artists began appearing frequently at Heaven Shaker Fortress because of the news of Heaven Crystal' repair to learn about the sword's whereabouts.
The two Dharma protectors of the mighty northern clan were forced to egress from the mountain and think of ways to re-establish Heaven Shaker Fortress' might.
But they did not expect that they would run into the person who caused the whole incident, which resulted in the loss of Heaven Crystal.
It was just as the saying went, "No matter where you try to find it, you won't be able to, but when the time comes, you will get it without any effort!"
The old Dharma protector with the golden saber did not think that they would be so lucky either. He immediately agreed to it and continued fighting against Fire Qilin. The tunnel shone brightly, and booming sounds could be heard nonstop.
Thud!
The old Dharma protector with the silver saber had astonishing movement speed. He chased after Happy, and the distance between them shortened swiftly...
But right when he was about to reach the entrance, an aggressive light suddenly shone in front of him, and a dangerous presence abruptly entered his sights. A bright longsword charged at him, and it made his hair stand on end.
He positioned his body sideways and grabbed a tiny Honey Mouth Sword Stomach Snake. He exerted force, and with a crack, the snake fell apart.
But that moment of pause allowed Happy to charge out of the tunnel and run much further away from him.
"That cunning brat!"
A fierce glare shone in the eyes of the old Dharma protector with the silver saber. "It's no wonder why you could steal Heaven Crystal from under our noses. Heh, pretty interesting. But you're in Sky Demon Secret Cave, and you also have Heaven Crystal with you, so where can you run to?"
As he spoke, he brought out Destroyed Metal Powder and chased after Happy based on the tremors on the stone that sensed the sword.
*****
The system notification came.
"Ding!
"Your secret of Heaven Crystal has been discovered! Triggered Protect Heaven Crystal and Flee Quest!"
At the instant Happy ran out of the tunnel, he finally received the system notification which came way too late. Bad news came one after another into his ears.
"The Twin Gold and Silver Dharma Protectors have discovered Heaven Crystal by accident, and to ensure that news does not leak, you must kill them.
"Flee from the Twin Gold and Silver Dharma Protectors, end your quest at Sky Demon Secret Cave quickly, and leave the place."
'How the heck am I supposed to run?!'
Happy wanted to choke the person who gave him the notification. The sound of a Myth Realm martial artist rose by his ears. How was he supposed to leave Sky Demon Secret Cave in this sort of situation?
The system continued giving him the notifications shamelessly, and the voice was still genderless as well as calm.
"If you die, Heaven Crystal will automatically fall! You will also lose your previous title and all quests related to Heaven Crystal."
Happy went silent. He gritted his teeth!
'Damn it…'
He listened to the sound of wind by his ears while charging forward at full speed. His expression was unpleasant, and he fled into the distance while his thoughts raced.
Honey Mouth Sword Stomach Snake was an item that could help him intercept a Dharma protector, but it was useless the second time. Besides, he did not expect to run into two crazy strong bastards, and they even had items that could help them locate Heaven Crystal.
What was even more depressing was that the system had given him a quest out of the blue. It was blatantly trying to harm him...
Were they thinking about tormenting him just because he was the first to enter Moksha Realm?!
'Isn't this joke too much?!'
Happy smiled bitterly!
While feeling anxious, he still considered himself lucky. Fortunately, he did not bring Rampaging Dragon and the others into Sky Demon Secret Cave;otherwise, the situation would be even worse.
The two old men might kill all the people present for Heaven Crystal.
Two old Myth Realm martial artists...
'What should I do? What do I do?!'
Happy's heart was filled with anxiety. When he ran into the hot tunnel, his Nine Yang Divine Skill activated automatically, and he felt as if he went into a warm room.
He looked around, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
'If it's here… No!'
The idea that just rose in his heart was immediately squashed down, and his gaze darkened once more.
Even though this tunnel had a great effect on martial artists, the elites from Heaven Shaker Fortress were all built in the hot environment of Sword Crafting Hall. Every person's qi cultivation technique could tolerate high heats. If they fought here, Happy would not gain any sort of advantage.
Besides, the qi of a Myth Realm martial artist was four times higher than that of a Moksha Realm martial artist. Happy would die way before their qi evaporated.
While considering that, Happy suddenly thought of something.
If extreme heat did not work, what about extreme cold?
The other cave was a land of ice. Even though the qi cultivation technique of Heaven Shaker Fortress was a high-tier qi cultivation technique that had been refined beside a furnace, compared to Nine Yang Divine Skill, it was still slightly inferior.
A thought bloomed in Happy's head.
"Brat, don't even think about running! Hand over Heaven Crystal, and I might spare you. I'll even take you in as my direct successor, what do you think of that?!"
Far behind Happy was the smug laughter from the Dharma protector with the silver saber.
'I'd be dumb to believe you!'
If there were no system notification, Happy might have tried his luck, but now… he ignored the Dharma protector and continued running forward and out of the hot tunnel.
It was not that he wanted to use his Moksha Realm and his unmastered Universe's Lightning Destruction Style to fight against a Myth Realm elite, but the continuous stream of system notifications had been ringing in his head without stop, and they gave him both good and bad news.
The good news was that if he successfully left Sky Demon Secret Cave before Heaven Crystal was snatched away, the people from Heaven Shaker Fortress would not dare to pursue him publicly in the world of martial arts. For at least three days, he would be safe.
But the bad news was that unless he killed both Dharma protectors in Sky Demon Secret Cave, even if he left Sky Demon Secret Cave, the news about Heaven Crystal would spread out, and soon, he would have powerful martial artists from different factions of power coming after him.
He would bring his own ruin with his wealth, and three days later, he would find himself in a hopeless situation. As long as he had Heaven Crystal with him, there would be an endless stream of people after his life!
The last notification nearly made Happy kill himself by ramming his head against the entrance to the extremely cold cave.
The quest that the players were the most wary of receiving was not about a fight until one side died, but the pursuit because of something they had.
There was no one who had a nice end after they made enemies of the whole world of martial artists. The quest could be said to have forced Happy into a corner! There was no longer any other path for him to take aside from fighting against death.
