Chapter 604: Blocking the Way

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Whoosh—

At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could feel the gazes of almost everyone in the vicinity converging on them.

These looks were filled with surprise, wariness, caution, greed, and malice, all because of the treasures they had obtained in the Sunset Marsh.

Yet, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan paid no heed to these reactions and didn’t plan on lingering.

They were about to leave on the earth dragon when several grand cultivators from Soul Formation sects suddenly blocked their way.

The leader among them was Yuan Tianhao, an eighth level Nascent Soul cultivator from the Three Suns Sect.

He looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and said calmly,

“I saw that you seemed to have obtained a lot of things in the Sunset Marsh just now. Take them out and let us take a good look to see if there’s anything we need.”

These words immediately made everyone look at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan with pity.

No matter how many treasures you obtained in the Sunset Marsh, as long as you are targeted by Yuan Tianhao and the others who are from Soul Formation sects, you won’t be able to keep it.

Some people even gloated, thinking to themselves, now, let me see what you can do about it.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t expect Yuan Tianhao to be so arrogant.

He was not even planning to pretend anymore.

However, the couple weren’t particularly angry.

They were already quite used to the arrogance and unreasonableness of these Soul Formation sects.

“What if we refuse to give them to you? What then?”

Jiang Chengxuan’s response surprised Yuan Tianhao and the other grand cultivators.

They had never encountered anyone who dared to defy them, and their expressions turned cold as they realized Jiang Chengxuan was serious.

“Do you know what you’re saying?”

Yuan Tianhao’s aura turned dangerously hostile as he questioned Jiang Chengxuan.

At that moment, Perfected Lord Yellow Sand from the Yellow Maple Sect sneered.

“Brother Yuan, since these two don’t know what’s good for them, why waste your breath on them?

Since they are unwilling to hand it to us, we might as well take it ourselves.”

Then, Yellow Sand turned to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and said teasingly,

“I wonder where these two idiots came from. Do they really think that no one dares to challenge them just because they are Nascent Soul cultivators?”

As soon as Yellow Sand finished speaking, he wasted no time and summoned a yellow flag with a swift motion of his hand.

Rustle—

The flag fluttered, instantly creating a storm of yellow sand, enveloping Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and their mount within it.

Observers nearby instantly recognized the weapon as Perfected Lord Yellow Sand’s renowned intrinsic true treasure, the Absolute Sandstorm Flag.

Once ensnared by the flag’s sandstorm, escape is nearly impossible as it slowly erodes the will and depletes the Dharmic power of its victims.

The sand itself is not ordinary but is imbued with the ability to cut through flesh and soul.

The sand itself is not ordinary. It is Samadhi Sand that is imbued with the ability to cut through flesh and soul.

“Watch. It won’t be long before everything they have becomes ours,” Yellow Sand said smugly.

However, his smile was short-lived. Suddenly, a tearing sound came from the yellow flag, and a long crack appeared on it.

“How is that possible?”

Shock appeared on Perfected Lord Yellow Sand’s face.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

At this moment, an ear-piercing tearing sound sounded again.

However, this time, the sounds were even more concentrated.

Cracks could be seen with the naked eye on the yellow flag like a spider web.

In the blink of an eye, the entire yellow flag was like a porcelain that was about to shatter.

Before Perfected Lord Yellow Sand could recover from this change, he felt a sharp pain in his mind and spat out a mouthful of blood as he let out a scream.

Looking at the yellow flag, it had already turned into pieces and scattered on the ground, complete devoid of any spiritual Qi.

As for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, they appeared in front of everyone unscathed.

This scene shocked everyone present.

One had to know that Perfected Lord Yellow Sand was a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

It was said that he had once killed two Nascent Soul cultivators of the same level.

His strength could be said to be unfathomable.

However, not only was such a powerful existance severely injured, but even his True Treasure, the Absolute Sandstorm Flag, that he relied on to become famous, was destroyed..
