章 33: 33. Hand Over And I'll Spare Your Life
Master Mu shook his head, helplessly saying, "In my current state, I'm powerless."
"So what now?"
"Lin Langtian, stop dawdling, it's already here! Run quickly!"
"Damn it!"
Lin Langtian cursed in frustration.
Just as he turned his head, he saw a grayish-white skeleton fly out from the crack.
The skeleton emanated an overwhelming, fearsome pressure, and in its eye sockets flickered a faint red glow.
"Intruders will be killed without mercy!"
A raspy voice echoed from the skeleton's mouth, filled with endless killing intent.
The Lin family members present were paralyzed with fear, forgetting to flee or dodge.
In the next moment, the skeleton swung its bony arm, unleashing a violent storm of elemental energy that darkened the sky and the earth, threatening to shred everyone apart.
Just as disaster was about to strike the Lin family, a white figure suddenly appeared.
A terrifying force surged out from their body.
"Boom!"
The violent yuan energy was instantly nullified, and the skeleton itself was shattered!
Even the seemingly indestructible barrier disintegrated into countless sparkling fragments.
The Lin family, relieved, collapsed to the ground, their faces showing the joy of narrowly escaping death.
They were finally safe!
[Ding, Lin Langtian experiences fear, emotion value +50]
Lin Langtian stood there, dumbfounded.
One move?
Just one move to destroy a Five Yuan Nirvana stage expert!
Master Mu was equally stunned.
He had clearly sensed that the elemental energy Chen Xuan released was only at the First Yuan Nirvana stage.
How was he able to defeat a Five Yuan Nirvana expert in one strike?
Even if someone could fight above their level, it shouldn't be by this much!
Is the Nirvana Realm so useless now?
Or had Chen Xuan hidden his true strength?
But that didn't seem right.
Chen Xuan looked like he was only in his teens.
To possess the power to defeat a Five Yuan Nirvana stage expert at such a young age, he must be a genius nurtured by a top-tier sect.
There's no way such a person would be allowed to roam freely.
Why was he in such a low-level empire?
Was it for training?
Furthermore, Master Mu also noticed that Chen Xuan seemed to harbor some hostility toward both the Huangpu family and the Lin family.
[Ding, Master Mu experiences shock + confusion, emotion value +100]
Chen Xuan withdrew his hand.
At the same time, he suddenly noticed that the empty slot representing the Devouring Ancestral Symbol in the system's collection was faintly glowing.
Although the light was dim, it was unmistakable.
He recalled that one of the eight ancestral talismans crafted by the Symbol Ancestor, the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, was supposed to be in the Great Desolate County.
And now, here he was.
With nothing else to do, he decided to collect it.
After reminding Lin Langtian not to forget their agreement to defeat Lin Dong in the upcoming family competition, Chen Xuan swiftly left.
As Chen Xuan disappeared from view, Lin Langtian felt a wave of relief.
After resting for a while, he led his people in search of the sect's treasures. ...
Ghost Puppet Sect.
Located atop the Xuan Yin Mountain Range, above the city of Ghost Puppet.
This area was perpetually shrouded in freezing cold air.
Ordinary people would never dare to approach.
This place was also considered a forbidden zone by many cultivators in the Great Yan Dynasty.
Even though there were many opportunities here, not even a Manifestation stage expert would dare enter lightly.
However, at this moment, two figures dressed in black and white robes appeared in the sky above the Xuan Yin Mountains.
The bone-chilling cold air surrounding the mountains did not faze them at all.
One of them squinted at the distant horizon and asked, "Old Nie, is the information reliable?"
"Rest assured, it's absolutely true," Nie Huayou nodded confidently.
Both of them were stewards of the Yuan Gate and experts at the Five Yuan Nirvana stage.
They had come to the Great Yan Dynasty on a mission to locate someone named Chen Xuan.
Originally, a Nine Yuan Nirvana expert was supposed to come, but due to his seclusion, the task had fallen to them.
After spending several months gathering information, they received a highly confidential tip: Chen Xuan had entered the Great Yan Dynasty.
They rushed over immediately.
Upon arriving, they received yet another secret piece of information: a Devouring Ancestral Symbol had appeared in the Great Yan Dynasty
They spent more time investigating and learned that the Ghost Puppet Sect had recently acquired a remarkable treasure they couldn't comprehend.
The description matched that of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol.
Thus, they had come.
Liu Fulei, dreaming of the future, said, "If we can get our hands on this Devouring Ancestral Symbol, we could become powerful lords of this world!"
"Hmm... Wait! I sense a strong presence approaching from the northeast," Nie Huayou said, his brow furrowing as he detected a dangerous aura.
Liu Fulei grew wary, "Could the news about the Devouring Ancestral Symbol have leaked?"
"That person's strength seems comparable to ours. But since there are two of us, we should have the advantage... Wait, he's moving toward us!"
"Old Nie, how about we play the waiting game? Let the crane and clam fight while we play the fisherman!"
"Ha! Excellent idea!" Nie Huayou agreed with a sinister laugh.
The two quickly concealed themselves within the Xuan Yin Mountains using special techniques.
Not long after they disappeared, an elderly man dressed in coarse linen appeared in the sky.
His eyes scanned the area as if searching for something.
"Where are they? I clearly sensed them just now, but they're gone already?"
The old man released his spiritual sense to search further but came up empty-handed.
Had he sensed incorrectly?
This old man was Ma Fengbin, the same person who had acquired the black rune from the black-robed elder at the Great Desolate Ancient Tablet.
After much effort, he had pinpointed the location of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol
Upon arriving, he sensed two powerful presences similar to his own and had come to investigate.
But now it seemed he had wasted his time.
Not wanting to delay any further, Ma Fengbin flew toward the city of Ghost Puppet
Ghost Puppet City was large, heavily guarded, and fortified.
But to someone of his power, its defenses were trivial.
He soared over the city, heading straight for the mountain summit.
At that moment, atop the mountain, the people of Ghost Puppet Sect were gathered in the square.
Leading them were three experts of the Manifestation stage.
One of them, dressed in dark red robes, had a pale face but exuded an aura of authority. He was the current sect master of Ghost Puppet Sect, Teng Sha.
His thin lips curled into a cold sneer.
"Have you found out how Lei'er died?"
"Sect Master, it seems the Great Devil Sect is involved."
"The Great Devil Sect?"
"Yes, it's said that during the Great Desolate Ancient Monument incident, the Great Devil Sect..."
Before the elder could finish, a voice imbued with terrifying elemental energy interrupted him.
"Hand over the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, and I will spare your lives!"
