Chapter 579 579: 579
Qinchuan had come to the Nanchi Continent to retrieve the Heavenly Treasures Materials from the Spirit Dragon Holy Land, and after obtaining the heavenly genius treasures, he would have to hurry back to Tianqing City.
Initially, with the death of the many Divine Envoys behind the three ancient kingdoms, those powers from the Upper Realm would surely not rest easy and might strike back at any time.
He did not wish to delay in this place over some trivial matters.
In the end, that night, Ye Xuanji and Ye Shiyi shared one room, and Huo'er and Xian'er shared another.
The night passed uneventfully.
On the second day, just as dawn broke, Qinchuan was still meditating quietly when a clamor arose outside the room.
Qinchuan focused and listened intently, only to hear someone shouting.
"Not good!"
"Not good!"
"The Young Master of the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect has gone missing!"
In Nanchi Continent, unlike in Dongju Continent with its four revered ancient kingdoms, the structure is somewhat different.
For countless years, not a single kingdom had emerged in Nanchi Continent; across the entire continent super sects stood tall.
Sects governed the territories they controlled, whether towns or mysterious crystals, veins all belonged to the corresponding sects.
The Flame Phoenix Holy Sect was a super sect that oversaw Lindong City and the tens of thousands of miles surrounding it.
Now that the Young Master of the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect had vanished in Lindong City, the entire city had been thrown into turmoil.
The Flame Phoenix Holy Sect, a sect so esteemed it possessed a Quasi-Emperor, had a child coveted by others.
At the same time, several figures of cultivators emerged from the city and sped away in all directions.
Following that, Qinchuan felt a vast Divine Sense spreading across the sky, probing into every area within the city.
That Divine Sense was domineering and aggressive, surging into Qinchuan's room without restraint.
"The child you are looking for is not here; please leave."
The other party's child had gone missing, and they were desperate to find them. Qinchuan merely prevented the other's Divine Sense from entering but did not harm them.
"Where did this reckless fool come from to dare obstruct the elder ancestor?" the Divine Sense roared. Waves of oppressive force came crashing in, attempting to overwhelm forcefully. The other's Divine Sense did not ease up because of Qinchuan's forbearance; instead, it became more aggressive.
"Get lost!"
Qinchuan's expression turned cold, the Emperor Soul within him opened its eyes, a blazing golden light shot out from his golden pupils, carrying an unrivaled Asura's murderous intent.
Qinchuan had already given the other party enough face, but since they did not know when to stop, he was naturally not going to be polite.
The golden light burst forth, instantly the sprawling Divine Sense in the void seemed to be scorched by the Heavenly Fire, emitting a series of "sizzling" loud sounds.
The majestic Divine Sense that covered Lindong City instantly completely withdrew.
"Hmm?"
At the central highest building in Lindong City, an old man spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Qinchuan's simple Divine Soul Technique had inflicted severe damage to his soul.
"Who is this person? Why does he possess such a powerful soul?"
The old man's face turned ashen, filled with shock and uncertainty, he swallowed a Treasure Pill while he healed his wounds and pondered.
"This youngster, clearly just in the Dragon Transformation Realm, what on earth could he possess to injure my soul?"
At that moment, the old man's eyes gleamed with a brilliant light.
"Could it be…"
The noise on the streets grew louder and more people were awakened.
At this time, Qinchuan and his group had already left the inn and were making their way outside the city walls.
"Stop there!"
As soon as the five of them arrived at the city gate, they were blocked by a cultivator with a majestic aura who thundered, "The Third Elder has ordered that no one is allowed to leave the city!"
The Third Elder is a Supreme Saint Expert of the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect stationed in Lindong City.
The young master of the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect was only twelve years old and had recently arrived in Lindong City to awaken the Flame Dragon Precious Body.
The Flame Phoenix Holy Sect was naturally well aware of the recent crisis in Lindong City, but they were confident that no one would dare to target them, so they did not take it seriously.
Little did they know that just two days later, the young master disappeared without a trace.
After discovering the young master's disappearance, the Third Elder immediately sent out powerful cultivators to seal off the entire city, allowing entry but not exit.
"We need to leave the city, please step aside!" Ye Xuanji declared with an aura like a rainbow. His cultivation level of a Great Saint in the late stage was revealed, the mysterious air circulating around him, holy and pure.
"Hm? Who are you, and do you not understand what I said? The city has been sealed, and no one is allowed to leave!"
The cultivator before them was built like a mountain, a formidable presence across the city gate, barring Qin Chuan and the others. Great Dao rune patterns circled around his waist, clearly indicating the cultivation level of a Great Saint in the intermediate stage.
"Get out of the way!"
A hint of coldness flashed in Ye Xuanji's eyes as mana roiled and he swept out his sleeve.
With a "bang," the Great Saint at the intermediate stage was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the city wall. Embedded in the shape of a large letter, his eyes were filled with disbelief.
The disappearance of the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect's young master had turned Lindong City upside down, and crowds had already gathered in the streets.
The conflict involving Ye Xuanji immediately caught everyone's attention.
"Who is that person? To actually dare to strike a follower from the Flame Dragon Holy Land in Lindong City?"
Surprise marked the faces of cultivators within the city.
"I don't know, but it seems his cultivation level is not low; it looks like he has already reached the Great Saint in the late stage," a Holy said in a low voice after seeing through Ye Xuanji's cultivation level.
"Great Saint in the late stage, no wonder he was able to defeat the Tenth Elder. However, it's a pity. This is Lindong City, and even a Great Saint in the late stage is not allowed to run wild here."
Another cultivator from the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect spoke coldly, with a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes.
Meanwhile, countless disciples from the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect surged from all around, encircling Ye Xuanji and his four companions.
"Bold villains, to dare to run wild on the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect's turf, do you wish for death?"
Among the many cultivators, the strongest was merely at the realm of a Holy, but facing Ye Xuanji, a Great Saint in the late stage, they showed not the slightest hint of fear, their voices stern and severe.
In Lindong City, the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect is the supreme existence, and no one is to provoke them.
"I have no time to waste with you. Move aside now, or end up like him," Ye Xuanji glanced at the severely wounded Tenth Elder on the ground and said indifferently.
"Arrogant! Take him down!" a Holy from the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect said coldly.
Just as a conflict was about to erupt between the two sides, a dazzling light shot out from the center of Lindong City.
An immense aura soared through the void, like a brilliant ball of Divine Fire, unrivaled.
"It's the Third Elder!"
"The Third Elder has come!"
The people from the Flame Phoenix Holy Sect recognized the newcomer and rejoiced.
"Humph, now that the Third Elder is here, let's see how you keep being arrogant," someone said.
Like lightning, the brilliant arc swiftly landed atop the city wall.
From his elevated position, the Third Elder looked down at the five people below.
Yet his gaze ultimately lingered on Qin Chuan and Ye Xuanji.
He had immediately discerned that Qin Chuan was the linchpin of the group, and Ye Xuanji possessed the highest cultivation level amongst the five.
"Which Sect's Saint Heir or Young Master are these?" At this moment, he had already assumed that Qin Chuan was a Saint Heir or Young Master from a super sect.
Moreover, he clearly recognized that Qin Chuan was the one who had injured his Divine Sense. He became even more certain that Qin Chuan and his companions were no ordinary people.
"This youngster must possess a Divine Soul Supreme Treasure!"
The Third Elder's thoughts surged like a tide; just now, his Divine Sense had spread out and was actually injured by a cultivator in the Dragon Transformation Realm, immediately making him think of a Divine Soul Supreme Treasure.
What do you think?
