Chapter 83

Chapter 83: The Crown Prince to Annihilate the Demon Sect, the Sword Emperor Takes Action!

A male disciple of Tianjian City named Xiao Wu happened to pass by nearby. He was one of the “photographers” responsible for recording the competition’s events.

The image stone he held was connected to a large image stone on the plains. Once activated, it could project the recorded scenes over there.

Xiao Wu was quite unlucky; he hadn’t recorded any exciting battle scenes all day and was exhausted from running around. Probably, no one was watching the projection area of his image stone... he thought dejectedly.

At this moment, he noticed a mysterious dark area! He could hardly see inside or hear anything, as if some isolating formation was in place.

“Is someone fighting in there?!” The sharp-eyed Xiao Wu immediately found a hidden spot, infusing spiritual power into the image stone, ready to record at any moment.

...

On the plains, since nighttime was mainly for resting, there weren’t many image stones broadcasting, and many staff members were resting.

Those bored cultivators wandered around, looking for image stones still broadcasting to pass the time.

Coincidentally, they saw Xiao Wu’s stone and were puzzled.

“What is this? Why is it all black? You can’t see anything!”

“Yeah, who’s controlling this image stone? Why keep it on with nothing to see, to entertain us?”

“Haha, maybe the person fell asleep!”

“Forget it; can you expect to see any exciting battles at night? Better rest for tomorrow.”

“Wait! Don’t you find this dark area strange... From my experience, it’s likely some sort of hidden formation!” An older and more experienced cultivator suddenly spoke up which immediately drew a lot of attention.

“Senior, you mean there’s a fight inside?”

“Why hide the fight with a formation?”

“Right, are they doing something shady!”

Gradually, more and more cultivators gathered here, all curious about what was happening inside the formation.

...

Spatial fluctuations!

Lin Qi’an left the Lotus Realm. He naturally didn’t take the Sacred Origin Golden Bell.

Dealing with four cultivators at the Transcendent Realm didn’t require using three sacred weapons; that would be overestimating them.

“They’re out!”

The four members of the Demon Sect, who had been maintaining the barrier, were delighted when Lin Qi’an appeared, immediately boosting their spirits.

“Looks like the Crown Prince can no longer hold on? Where’s the princess? Hand her over, and maybe we’ll give you a less painful death.”

Lin Qi’an sighed, “Do you really think this black fog, this barrier, can affect me?”

“What? Take me to see it immediately!” The Qinglong Saintess was shocked, flying up without further explanation, her dress billowing.

If the Crown Prince had the ancestral dragon’s power, she must find ways to please him; maybe she could gain some of the ancestral dragon’s legacy...

“Even at night, we can see the Crown Prince fight? Let’s go quickly!”

“Wait, didn’t the Crown Prince fight all day, defeating dozens of teams? Does he still have energy?”

“Indeed, the Crown Prince fought one against two, which should be even more draining!”

As more people gathered, the noise grew louder.

“Who’s making such a racket, can’t a person sleep at night?”

“They say the image stone shows the Crown Prince!”

“Then who cares about sleep? Let’s go watch!”

Even Xiao Wu didn’t know that due to him capturing the Crown Prince, the viewers went from a few to a crowded throng.

In the woods, the four members of the Demon Sect were in shock!

“Dragon might...impossible!”

“How can a cultivator at the Transcendent Realm have such terrifying power!”

Their pupils constricted in horror and a massive fear gripped their hearts. It was like an invisible black hand slowly squeezing their hearts.

“This person is unbeatable, retreat quickly!” The eldest, Chi, reacted the fastest and tried to fly away immediately.

With the formation broken, fighting here might attract others, making escape impossible, but he was met with a golden divine fire.

Realizing it, they were already trapped in a fiery cage and were unable to escape.

A palm strike brought scorching pain to the soul.

“Ah!!”

“What is this fire?!”

The four were terrified, trapped in the flame prison.

The Nine Yang Divine Fire could burn everything; how could these Demon Sect cultivators break through?

The four unleashed various divine powers and treasures on the prison, all incinerated by the divine fire, none effective.

“Did I allow you to leave?” Lin Qi’an’s calm voice rang out.

They were utterly terrified!

Is the Crown Prince of Beiyang even human with this battle strength? He’s a monster.

“Your Highness! We offended you; please forgive us!” They began begging for mercy.
