Chapter 106: Chapter 104: Do Not Seek (Second Update)_1
Translator: 549690339 |
Under the horrified gaze of the crowd, the Nameless Compass exploded. The palm-sized compass instantly transformed into thousands of shards, resembling a series of brilliantly dazzling streams of light, scattering off into the distance…
On the giant unidentified beast bone, the graceful woman was first to recover. The firmness in her eyes had disappeared, replaced by an intense shock…
“How is this possible? How can this be?”
The woman muttered to herself. Even after witnessing this with her own eyes, she still couldn’t believe it.
She had never encountered such a situation before. At most, the red light emitted would be intense, but it would return to normal in a moment.
This time, not only did the red streaks bloom with unprecedented brilliance, but the compass shattered directly into fragments on the ground.
“Liu Village should not be sought, it cannot be sought, it is a forbidden area.”
The woman sighed heavily.
In the end, the massive beast bone started to move. Without looking back, it swiftly left the area. Its speed was so fast that it was like a bolt of thunder and lightning streaking away, instantly disappearing from everyone’s sight.
For a while, many of those watching were surprised.
Although they didn’t know the purpose of that compass, the fact that the shadow of the village alone could frighten some royal existence into a disgraceful escape, fleeing the place immediately, was very shocking!
The crowd’s eyes flickered as they once again looked toward the few figures in the center.
At some unknown point in time.
Tu Wa Zi, Lin Meng, and Gu Chen had already quickly walked up to the remnants of the major clans and stood there like broad knives on the stony ground.
One after another, their auras enormous and vast, like King of the Worlds.
“If any of you want to pass through this place, each clan must pay a tribute of a million pounds of Black Gold, otherwise, all talks are off.”
Tu Wa Zi was the first to speak.
His proposal immediately made everyone from the major clans look at each other in distress.
Even for them, the price of a million pounds of Black Gold was too high. Even if they could afford it, it would definitely be a massive blow.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that a million pounds of Black Gold was enough to build a small palace.
Black Gold, although relatively common as a crafting material, was still scarce compared to other more precious materials.
The price of an ounce of Black Gold in the market could feed an ordinary family of three for ten years.
If used in weapon forging, a small bit of it significantly increased the sharpness and durability, reaching the limit of mortal weapons.
They could afford a few thousand or tens of thousands of pounds, but asking for a million pounds straight up was an exaggeration.
What was more important was, who would carry that much around?
In a short period of time, they wouldn’t be able to gather that much.
This was clearly a deliberate scheme; they obviously didn’t want to let anyone pass.
“Young man, the amount you’re asking for is too much. Even if we drained all of our resources, we still wouldn’t be able to gather that much Black Gold!”
A patriarch from one of the major clans pleaded.
“You adults are so stupid, if you can’t afford that much, why don’t you just haggle with me?”
Tu Wa Zi smirked.
Suddenly, the eyes of the surrounding clansmen lit up.
“Young man, a million pounds of Black Gold is too much. How about this, is ten thousand pounds acceptable?”
In a certain prominent clan, someone cautiously spoke up, continuously glancing back at the Three-eyed Crow and the Black Giant Python behind Lin Chen and his group, unable to stop shuddering.
Being stared down by the Three-eyed Crow and the Black Giant Python gave him a feeling as though he was being suppressed by a towering mountain peak, leaving him somewhat breathless.
“Hehe, no can do, a million jin is a million jin, not even aliang less!” Tu WaZi revealed his signature broad white teeth, delivering his statement with a laugh.
His directness infuriated the man enough to almost make him spit blood.
No bargaining? What is this kid talking about? Isn’t this pure exploitation?
“Vicious beast, we are members of the Rain Clan, so what if your blood lineage is extraordinary, after all, you’ve yet to fully mature.
My Rain Clan has painstakingly settled in this territory for who knows how many eras now, our ancestors have even successfully ignited the Divine Flame. Are you sure you want to make enemies with us?! Once you make it onto our Rain Clan’s hit list, even if you are truly ancient pure blood creatures, you’ll bleed to your demise.”
Someone spoke up from a certain party, it was a middle-aged man clad in a luxurious bright garment, misty fog swirling around him.
Next to him, there were several figures, all surrounded by runes, with a dense misty drizzle falling around them.
Although these few couldn’t match the power displayed by the middle-aged man, they were certainly experts in their rights and, by combining their forces, projected an unpredictable but potent god-like power, creating combat strength that far surpassed the norm.
However, what was surprising was that, at this moment, these few were all battered and bruised, presenting a pitiful sight.
“I thought I was just hearing the barks of a couple of dogs? Defeated soldiers still daring to make a fool of themselves in public.”
Lin Meng briskly walked over from the side.
He had already faced off against a few of them just before, completely overpowering them; if not for the timely appearance of the middle-aged man, he was certain he could have killed them on the spot.
Upon hearing this, the few men pointed out by Lin Meng blushed in shame, wishing they could find a mouse hole to crawl into right then and there.
They had given it their all, but were still significantly outperformed by their opponent. His terrifying physical strength almost had their souls trembling.
“Youngster, the only reason you defeated them is because I did not intervene. Can you understand the prestige of my Rain Clan?!”
The middle-aged man spoke up, his eyes glowing brilliantly. The terrifying runes circling around him made it appear as though there was a rain shower pouring from the sky.
The man emitted an incredibly chilling aura, several times stronger than that even those clan elders. He was a genuine powerhouse, enough to make one’s soul shiver.
“Squawk!”
The next moment, endless rain started pouring from the sky, boiling the puddles on the ground.
This was a frightening display of power, enough to strike awe into the hearts of many.
In the air.
Dense runes connected in a patchwork pattern, forming a horrifying marsh. In the air, beams of light raged everywhere, transforming into a terrifying force that ruthishly descended upon the Three-eyed Crow and Lin Chen and his group.
“It is said that the ancestors of the Rain Clan successfully ignited the Divine Flame, achieving the position of a Divine Spirit, laying down this endless Rain path. This is what gives the Rain Clan its name, making it one of the famous super clans in the Ancient Country, renowned far and wide.
Today upon witnessing it, it truly is extraordinary. Even though these few have not yet comprehended the true path of the rain, merely carrying out the rudimentary implementation still presents a significant level of might, sufficient to bulldoze over mountains over miles long!”
Some were exclaiming in awe, themselves belonging to a super powerful clan of the Ancestral Great Country, aware of some secret legends of the Rain Clan.
The Three-eyed Crow remained expressionless. Facing the head-on collision of the Stone Clan, it maintained its aloof and cold demeanor, standing on a Stonewood tree. Its crimson eyes were like two blood agates, emitting a shade of melancholy, glow slowly diffusing…
Just as the sky-high rain was about to pour down.
The third vertical eye… opened.
Within a moment, a beam of light burst out, like bright and eye-catching aurora, resembling myriad light arrows falling from the sky. Opulent and charming, embodying a terrifying crisis within its extreme beauty.
Above the Sky, that mysterious Bronze Portal reappeared in the mortal world.
