Chapter 105: Chapter 103: Deterrence (First Update) 1

Translator: 549690339       7—

Upon the rocky surface of the mountain, a descendent of what seemed to be a pure ancient fierce bird started to speak, and its words left everyone present in awe. The scene fell into a terrifying silence. Many were holding their breath, fearing the repercussions of catching the beast’s attention.

They didn’t see themselves as being stronger than the elders of the big clans. Even the usually unyielding prodigies couldn’t help but tremble, fearing they’d become the next target of this unparalleled fierce bird with just one wrong look. The horror of this bird was too much to bear. A terrifying portal, much like Abyss Hell, could be summoned in the blink of its third eye. It was far more terrifying than those old demons and cut down the elders of the big clans as easily as one would chop vegetables.

Those elders weren’t individuals to be taken lightly. Each held a high status, tremendous authority, and could make the endless territory tremble in rage. They held the power of life and death over millions of beings.

But at this moment, these usually haughty individuals looked like a bunch of beaten dogs.

They were giving their all. Even joining forces, they couldn’t stop the three­eyed crow, they were executed at will and their souls were dragged into the abyss…

Such overwhelming power that seemed as easy as ripping dry wood struck fear into everyone present. It was something they couldn’t hope to contend with.

Even if their clans could go up against it, it would come at a great price. They would have to use their inherited secret killing techniques just to level the playing field, a price they simply cannot afford.

“What the hell is Liu Village?”

A wave of shock swept over them, their minds flooded with questions. This was not the first time they had heard of this place.

Before they had mocked and scorned, considering it a minor village daring to challenge the big clans out of foolishness.

But now they were genuinely astonished. They believed it had to be a formidable hidden force with terrifying divine power. Once it emerged, it could easily alter the dynamics in their realm.

Several people were thinking along these lines, seeking to understand this mysterious village.

In the dense forest, an enormous beast bone emerged, shrouded in a purple glow that emerged like a tempestuous ocean. Its terrifying aura dominated the scene, leaving men and women, young and old standing on it terror-stricken.

The leader of the group, a woman in a clear purple robe, had bright eyes and white teeth. Her captivating charm and elegant demeanor was second to none.

Not only was she a beauty, but she was also a formidable figure. Her potent aura burst forth, dominating the scene, effectively silencing many corrupt individuals present.

Some recognized her. She was a royal family member from an ancient country, very powerful, beyond question and better left unprovoked.

Even though this group held a high status, they hadn’t been involved in the previous quarrel, so Little Black and the three-eyed crow left them alone, keeping them out of the whirlpool of conflict.

In front of the beast bone, the woman seemed to make a decision. She carefully took out a precious item from her bosom.

It was an object about the size of a palm, similar to a compass, filled with comfortable patterns, and shrouded in a mysterious color. Special runes danced and leaped on it, like sparks of electricity. It was clear to see that it wasn’t an ordinary item.

The next moment.

She softly moved her lips, uttering obscure and incomprehensible words.

As she finished speaking, the compass began to emit electric sparks. The weird patterns seemed to come alive, swirling in the air like little snakes.

Immediately after.

The palm-sized compass suddenly flew upwards, transforming into a streak of light and vanished from everyone’s view.

Elder sister, using the power of the Nameless Compass just to find the so- called Liu Village, isn’t that a bit wasteful?”

A girl in her teens stepped out from behind the woman. She was gentle and lovely, her body full of vitality, as if harboring a wild beast. She was one of the prodigies who were to enter the Heaven Mending Pavilion.

The girl’s words revealed her confusion.

The Nameless Compass was accidentally discovered during one of their exploration into a secret realm, it is a fragment of a peculiar altar with misty power, capable of revealing hidden places and directly opening pathways leading inside, very few could escape its detection.

The most important thing is, the Nameless Compass can also predict danger and respond accordingly.

If upon returning, the tiny patterns surrounding the compass are black, it represents that there is no danger or the level of danger is very low, one can attempt to explore.

However, if it displays a red color, it indicates a high level of danger. One should generally avoid getting too close or take a wide detour around it.

Although the ability of the Nameless Compass is against the heavens, it has a deadly flaw, the limited number of uses.

Every time it is used, a small crack will appear on the compass. The more mysterious and powerful the realm explored, the more pronounced the crack on the compass body will be.

From the time it was acquired until now, they have explored the secret realm six times. Apart from impulsively exploring a highly dangerous realm once which resulted in the fall of many powerful beings, all the other five times were fruitful occasions, they even found a droplet of the legendary Divine Medicine residue.

Even after the passage of a long time, the droplet of Divine Medicine residue still retained traces of its medicinal properties, which allowed a dying old ancestor of their clan to revive and gained an extra 500 years of life.

However, it was precisely because of that occasion that a deep crack directly appeared on the Nameless Compass, and it could only be used two or three times more at most.

If we can really find Liu Village, even if this compass is completely shattered,

it will have been put to good use!”

The young woman spoke up, her tone interlaced with unwavering determination and affirmation.

The girl opened her mouth, but upon seeing the woman’s gaze, she playfully stuck out her tongue and swallowed back the words she originally intended to say.

“It’s back!”

Half a moment later, someone announced.

Above the sky, along with a piercing sound of breaking air, the palm-sized Nameless Compass seemed to traverse through an unknown distance in an instant and reappeared out of thin air.

The woman immediately turned her gaze towards the sky, her expression showing an unspoken hope.

However, moments later, the woman’s face changed dramatically, and her face briefly flashed a hint of shock.

The compass in her field of vision was fringed with a dull grey pattern emitting

a red light, more brilliant than any previous time.

The intense red lines interwove, resembling a radiant Mandala flower bloom, momentarily attracting everyone’s attention.

There were exclamatory sounds from the large beast bone’s surrounding area.

The return of the compass and the abnormal signs indicate that it might have detected the existence of Liu Village.

But as the red patterns interweave and release a brighter light than any other time before, doesn’t this imply that the level of danger in Liu Village is nearly fatal, even more terrifying than some forbidden human areas?!”

The stunning woman’s brows furrowed, her gaze covered with a thick layer of suspicion.

“Crack!”

Just at that moment.

A crisp shattering sound suddenly rang out, exceptionally loud.

The next moment.

Under the astonished gazes of a group of people, the compass, already covered in tiny cracks, shattered in response.

In high altitude, endless gleams fell down, as if an Aurora rain had fallen in these vicinities.
