Chapter 86

Mountain Goblin Gorge.

The cliff was lush with vegetation, and the distant mountains stretched endlessly, shrouded in mist, forming a series of picturesque landscapes.

Mo Shuiqiu, the Saintess of Yunmo Dao Palace, along with a senior martial brother, was hunting a Mountain Goblin King in the gorge!

Mo Shuiqiu was dressed in a loose daoist robe with cloud patterns inked on it. Despite the loose fit, her movements revealed tight curves, exuding a unique lazy beauty.

“Junior Sister, hold on! I’m coming to help you!”

This Mountain Goblin King was the lord of this area, standing five meters tall, with cultivation at the Transcendent Realm.

It could move through mountains and earth effortlessly, possessing immense strength! It ran swiftly along the cliffs, occasionally spewing out streams of spiritual energy from its bright red nostrils.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions echoed continuously along the cliffs. Mo Shuiqiu stood in the center of the gorge, using her brush to draw numerous large falcons and birds, which transformed into ink beasts and attacked the Mountain Goblin King, engaging in an intense battle.

Her senior brother was meticulously drawing a six-winged lion, which required immense effort and spiritual energy. Once completed, it would surely subdue the Mountain Goblin King!

However, just as the battle was at its peak, a golden scroll suddenly flew into the sky and rapidly expanded. The golden light filled the air, with countless images of flowers, birds, grasses, and fish appearing, encompassing all aspects of nature.

Yes, it was Xiao Chen’s “Myriad Beasts Scroll.”

“Capture!” The golden light surged.

The Mountain Goblin King was enveloped within it, unable to move. Its entire body was being absorbed into the scroll!

“SSSSHHH!~~~”

The shrill cry sounded like thousands of bamboo sticks being ripped apart! It echoed throughout the valley, resonating endlessly.

Mo Shuiqiu and her senior brother instinctively covered their ears. They watched as the Mountain Goblin King was sucked into the scroll, which then shrank and flew into the hand of another man.

“Thank you for the generous gift!” Xiao Chen laughed heartily, turned, and left, his aura significantly stronger. This hunting competition had become the perfect opportunity for him to grow stronger.

“Damn it! Who would have thought this person would reap the benefits without lifting a finger!” Watching Xiao Chen leave from the top of the gorge, the senior brother was furious.

If they had subdued the Mountain Goblin King, they would have earned at least three points, which was equivalent to defeating a team.

“Forget it, it’s just a minor gain. People like him will never achieve greatness.” Mo Shuiqiu, who had loved literature and painting since childhood, had a cultured temperament and was naturally more refined, not easily moved by emotions.

Boom!

On the plains, in front of the projection stone. Countless cultivators flocked to the scene.

All for a single statement: The Crown Prince encounters a Celestial Realm ferocious beast!

Almost instantly, this statement spread across dozens of miles on the plains. Countless figures from various sects and factions flew towards the scene.

“Where is the Crown Prince’s projection stone!”

“Over there! Can’t you see everyone flying in that direction?”

“Hurry!”

The projection stone showing Lin Qi’an’s image was surrounded by layers of people. There were even people crowding in the air...

“Isn’t that the Saintess of Yunmo Dao Palace? She’s one of the seed candidates!”

“My god, that really is a Celestial Realm beast! Look at the size of that body.”

“The Crown Prince is confronting it head-on. Could he be doing it to save the Saintess of Yunmo Dao Palace?”

“It seems so...”

“Damn, these beasts have no reservations. Won’t they attack the Crown Prince with full force?”

Some were just there to watch, but many were genuinely concerned for Lin Qi’an. A Celestial Realm beast was an entire major realm above Lin Qi’an.

Even the Saintess of Yunmo, a seed candidate, had no resistance. No matter how strong the Crown Prince was, he couldn’t possibly be a match...

“Damn that beast, how infuriating!!”

Everyone in the Yunmo Dao Palace was in despair. They had been watching this spot the entire time. At first, the Celestial Realm beast had not appeared, and everything was fine. But then, the unexpected happened!

The male disciple who had accompanied the Saintess, also a direct disciple of the Palace Master with exceptional talent, was crushed to death by this damnable beast in one blow.

Losing such a great genius, how could the sect not be heartbroken? But the most terrifying thing was, the Saintess might not escape this demon’s clutches...

Just as they were all holding their breaths, the Crown Prince’s figure appeared.

“If the Crown Prince can save the Saintess, our Yunmo Dao Palace will repay him generously!”

“Come on, Crown Prince!”

A crowd clutched their chests, even forgetting to breathe.

The Crown Prince of Beiyang versus the Celestial Realm ferocious beast. If the Crown Prince loses, he could reveal his identity and the Mountain Goblin might refrain from killing him.

But the Saintess... she would surely suffer a tragic fate. This battle held the hearts of everyone in the sect!
