For the next few days, Ye Xiao continued wandering in the dark world, looking for Holy Spirits everywhere.
But in these few days, he didn’t encounter many holy spirits. Sometimes, if his luck was good, he would encounter one or two Holy Spirits in a day, and if his luck was bad, he wouldn’t even see a single shadow.
Just as Ye Xiao was walking, he suddenly noticed that there was some movement in the distance. He immediately suppressed his aura and concealed himself before rushing in that direction.
Half an hour later, Ye Xiao was disappointed to find that there was a mess on the ground. Whoever was here, had already left. However, a wave suddenly came from afar which surprised Ye Xiao.
Hurrying in that direction, Ye Xiao saw a large number of dark fumes in front of him that seemed to have covered hundreds of miles of land.
He also saw a powerful Holy Spirit struggling madly in the dark fumes. In the middle of the dark fumes, a dark-haired man with a cold face stretched his hands. The Holy Spirit that was frantically struggling suddenly stop reacting and fell to the ground. Then that dark-haired man took out a gourd from his waist and pointed the mouth of the gourd towards Holy Spirits and immediately sucked them inside.
Ye Xiao was surprised when he saw the dark-haired man. He didn’t expect to see a person here. But then again, Pygon never told him that he’ll not see a person at this place.
But what attracted Ye Xiao’s attention was that this dark-haired man seemed to be able to see everything in this dark environment even without using Divine Sense.
It has to be known that the entire world was dark. Ye Xiao was able to see his surroundings only because of his powerful Divine Sense. But this man doesn’t need Divine Sense to see, he could see his surroundings with his eyes.
Ye Xiao looked at the dark-haired man more specifically and saw five gourds neatly hanging around his waist.
“Are those gourds filled with Holy Spirits? How many did he catch?”
Ye Xiao could not help but think secretly in his heart. Suddenly, a flash of enlightenment flashed on Ye Xiao’s face.
At this time, the black-haired man took out a smooth jade plate. A flash of light sparkled on the jade plate from time to time.
“That…seemed to be some kind of detector. It looks like a detector to sense and locate the position of Holy Spirits.” Ye Xiao was startled. He also had a lot of holy spirits on the Second Floor of Nine Story Pagoda, however, it took him many days to catch them. If he had this detector, wouldn’t his journey have become easy?
What is more, he still had no idea how to complete his mission.
Looking at the dark-haired man, Ye Xiao saw him glancing at the jade plate in his hand. Then a pair of black wings appeared behind his back. Black lightning flashed on his body as he turned the beam of black light before shooting in a certain direction. The speed of this man was too fast.
“This guy looks very strong.”
Ye Xiao couldn’t help but feel a little distressed, not that he was afraid of the man, but that he needed to get his hands on the Holy Spirit Locator. But that man doesn’t look weak. He seemed to be a powerhouse at the God Realm or maybe Ancient God Realm.
Ye Xiao’s cultivation was currently suppressed. Dealing with such a person can be proved to be very difficult even for him.
Shaking his head, Ye Xiao immediately started following that person. A pair of black wings with golden patterns also grew out on his body, increasing his speed more than five times. His speed was no slower than that man, in fact, it was even faster.
Ye Xiao followed that dark-haired man for a few days. He didn’t immediately attack, he choose to wait, wait for a suitable opportunity. He knew that the dark-haired man is very strong, so he must succeed when he attack. Or he will never have a second chance.
This was the feeling Ye Xiao was currently having in his heart because of his low strength.
Well, he was ready to attack this man because of another reason. It is because he could feel demonic breath on this person’s body. It means this person is a demon or demonic cultivator. One thing is sure though, this person is someone evil.
Three days later, the dark-haired man actually found three Holy Spirits in a mountain. He erupted with boundless energy that had the hint of evil and darkness. Then he immediately used his skills to trap the three Holy Spirits.
Looking at the three Holy Spirits trapped, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Then he once again took out the gourd to store these three Holy Spirits. However, at this time, a big dragon’s claw appeared in the sky that clawed toward the three holy spirits. But when this claw was about to catch the three holy spirits, the dark-haired man immediately reacted.
“Boom!”
A horrible force came from his right as he attack which instantly shattered the space itself that deeply affected the draconic claw.
However, although the dragon claw was affected slightly, it remained unchanged. The dragon claw grabbed at the three holy spirits and then retracted in a certain direction.
“Boom!”
The dark-haired man remained calm. He didn’t say anything. He simply took out a steel fork and smashed in the direction where the claw had disappeared, causing loud sonic waves to sweep over in layers that destroyed everything in miles. But to the dark-haired man’s surprise, he didn’t see any figure.
“This?”
The dark-haired man’s calm face finally changed slightly. But before he could even say anything or chase in that direction, he suddenly sensed something behind. He turned and saw a huge ball of silver lightning. He didn’t know when this ball of silver lightning had appeared but when he saw this ball of lightning, he felt a sense of danger. It was as if he were to collide against this ball of lightning, he’ll be severally injured at the very least.
But he was not a man who doesn’t know how to fight. He immediately burst forth with a formidable aura, and the next instant, clouds of purple flame surrounded him completely. Not only that, black lightning kept flashing in the cloud of purple flame. The dark-haired man used these two tricks to create a powerful shield around him.
“Bang!”
It was at this moment that the huge ball of silver lightning collided against his black thunder fire shield which created a terrifying explosion that destroyed the already destroyed area of many miles.
To the dark-haired man’s surprise, the ball of silver lightning was actually the destructive lightning of Heavenly Dao. Moreover, he could also feel the Law of Thunder. The combination of these two proved to be terrible. Although his shield was not destroyed, he was still affected by it and spat out mouthfuls of blood.
After some time, when everything calmed down, his shield which already had many holes slowly disappeared.
“Phuu!”
The dark-haired man heaved a sigh of relief, but the next moment, his expression changed completely. It is because he found out that at some time, the five gourds on his waist has disappeared. What is more, the Holy Spirit Locator has also disappeared.
The dark-haired man’s face changed greatly. He first looked at his surroundings but didn’t find anyone. Finally, he released his Divine Sense that collided against Ye Xiao’s Divine Sense.
Because of this collision, he immediately located where Ye Xiao was.
“Eh, my location is revealed!”
Ye Xiao muttered while playing with five gourds and Holy Spirit Locator in his hand. But there was no worry on his face. He wasn’t afraid.
Looking at the five gourds and Holy Spirit Locator in Ye Xiao’s hands, the dark-haired man realized that he was being played with. The opponent’s target was never him but the five gourds and Holy Spirit Locator from the very beginning.
He had lived for a very long time but it was the first time that someone dared to grab his stuff and play with him like this. For the very first time, he was angered. His heart was furious.
“You are courting death!”
With a cold face, the dark-haired man erupted with his powerful aura that was like a stormy sea, constantly sweeping over like waves in every direction. His momentum climbed to the extreme in an instant.
He flew in the sky and then looked down at Ye Xiao before throwing a powerful punch at him.
At the moment when he attacked, the surrounding space trembled. Cracks also appeared in the void as violent energy rushed over like a tornado, wanting to tear apart and devour everything in its path.
Ye Xiao felt if he didn’t do anything to counter this attack, this attack will destroy this dark world upon collision.
