Chapter 54: The Dark Souls Attack
"I don’t know about the ones far away, but among the four sects in Daming Prefecture, including Tong Prefecture, the best at fire attribute cultivation methods should be the Sunset Sect."
The Crimson Sun Technique of the Sunset Sect, when cultivated to its highest level, is said to be able to melt mountains and boil lakes. It is also famous for being extremely powerful throughout the Wu Kingdom.
Besides that, the Four Elephant Gate’s fire technique is also very famous. It is said that when practiced to the end, it can summon a real flame of the Vermilion Bird.
As for the remaining Qianzhu Sect and the Diamond Temple, I haven’t heard of any famous fire-related cultivation method." The short-haired man did not waste the spirit stone, and he gladly shared what he knew.
"Thank you for your guidance, Taoist friend."
Wang Yu repeatedly thanked him and, after exchanging a few polite words, left the shop.
Standing on the street, he furrowed his brow and thought deeply.
According to the short-haired man, having this Spiritual Root attribute might make it a bit difficult to join a sect, but he didn’t know he also had the Bloodline Awakening talent. With both, most sects would likely accept him.
Given the current situation, joining the Four Elephant Gate seemed like the best choice.
Firstly, this sect is skilled in taming beasts and values physical bloodlines. Secondly, it has a famous fire cultivation method, and lastly, the Yin family is recommending him, which should make joining easier.
Of course, whether everything the short-haired man said is true needs some time to investigate. At least, he must learn more about the four major sects in Daming Prefecture.
However, before that, he needs to find Blacksmith Wu and contact the Yin family first.
Wang Yu had an idea and immediately turned around to head to the blacksmith shop he had seen earlier.
…
"What? Blacksmith Wu has just passed away." In the shop filled with swords and blades, Wang Yu stood before a dark, strong man, his eyes wide open in shock.
"Yes, three days ago the furnace suddenly exploded, and Old Wu couldn’t escape in time; he died on the spot. It’s a pity that his amazing skill of crafting thousand forged iron might be lost." The strong man sighed.
"Does Blacksmith Wu have any family or relatives in the town?" Wang Yu asked, unwilling to give up.
"Old Wu was just an ordinary person, he relied solely on his skills and shop to enter Guangyuan District. Even if he had family, they couldn’t enter the town, and he was quite a loner, having no friends in the marketplace." The strong man shook his head, then turned to greet another customer who had just walked in, ignoring Wang Yu.
Wang Yu walked out in a daze, looking up at the sky and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
This is really troublesome.
Yin Linglong only gave him this one way to contact her. If not, he could find out more and directly look for the Yin family’s address.
After all, the Yin family is considered an affiliated family of the Four Elephant Gate, so someone in Guangyuan District should know where the Yin family is located.
Wang Yu was frowning, but in the next moment, his expression suddenly became serious.
Because next to the bright red sun in the sky, several dark shapes appeared, and they were getting bigger, as if they were falling quickly.
Not just Wang Yu, but some other people walking on the street also seemed to notice this strange sight and looked up at the dark shapes in surprise.
"No, it’s a magical tool."
"Enemy attack!"
"Quick, activate the protective array!"
Someone, who recognized the true nature of the dark shapes first, suddenly shouted.
As soon as these words were spoken, the street was thrown into chaos. Suddenly, sharp alarm sounds rang out everywhere, and colorful fireworks shot up into the sky from various shops.
"Buzzing"
Amid the low rumbling, white pillars of light shot up into the sky from four corners of Guangyuan District. A semi-transparent curtain of light suddenly appeared in the air, covering the entire valley beneath it.
But at that moment, the black shadows had transformed into gigantic objects the size of houses. They were huge, dark square seals with floating patterns on their surfaces and swirling black mist around them.
"Oh my, the Dark Souls Seal, it’s the second-rank artifact, the Dark Souls Seal!"
"It’s the Foundation Establishment ceremony of the Dark Souls Sect, and there’s more than one!"
…
Screams echoed as if the end of the world had come, but before anyone could react, these giant objects came crashing down onto the light shield like meteorites.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The sky turned completely dark, and large black orbs suddenly exploded everywhere in the light barrier, covering most of the sky. The surface of the semi-transparent barrier rippled with violent waves, but in just a moment, there was a cracking sound, and it shattered like glass.
The black giant seal then fell down into different areas of the market.
Wang Yu heard a series of loud booms like thunder, and then the ground shook violently, revealing huge cracks in the earth.
The people nearby barely had time to react before they fell into the cracks with terrified screams.
"Activate Super Frequency."
Without thinking, Wang Yu shouted and dropped to the ground, using his hands and feet to leap up just in time to avoid a huge crack that suddenly opened beneath him.
But he couldn’t focus on that because, with his enhanced senses, he saw many more dark shapes appearing on the horizon, racing towards Guangyuan District at high speed.
Filled with anger and fear, Wang Yu quickly grabbed a yellow talisman from his pocket, pressed it onto himself, and a green wind surrounded him, making his body feel light as a swallow.
It was one of the protective talismans given by Yin Linglong, the advanced version of the lightness talisman called "Wind Talisman."
Under the power of the talismans, Wang Yu moved like a wild beast, leaping several yards away and soaring over the rooftops of fallen shops, heading straight for the hillside at the edge of the valley.
Not only Wang Yu, but countless figures in the marketplace scattered like ants, and dozens of flying magical tools took off into the sky.
"Dark Souls Sect, how bold you are to invade Daming Prefecture! Aren’t you afraid that our four sects will join forces to wipe the Dark Souls Sect from Yuguo?"
From the top of the high mountain behind the marketplace, a man’s furious roar echoed, followed by a tiger’s roar, as a giant blue tiger, carrying a man in golden armor, leaped from the peak.
Behind the giant tiger, more than a dozen wolves, leopards, and other wild beasts charged out, each carrying men and women clad in various armors on their backs.
"Hehe, so it’s Brother Yue from the Four Elephant Gate guarding this place. But it’s a pity that there is only you, a Foundation Establishment cultivator. This time, all six of our Soul Sect’s Foundation Establishment cultivators are joining forces. Even if you have great abilities, don’t expect to escape alive." A dark laugh echoed from the sky, and six blurred figures slowly descended, surrounding the giant tiger and its elite cultivators.
At that moment, the dark figures in the distance were nearing Guangyuan District, revealing themselves to be enormous Bone Boats, each five or six yards long, with swirling black mist on their surfaces and crowds of figures standing on board.
It was unclear who gave the command, but the crowd on the Bone Boats cheered and swiftly flew down, heading straight for the rogue cultivators fleeing in the marketplace.
The giant Bone Boats suddenly picked up speed and rushed toward the airborne flying magical tools.
At that moment, Wang Yu had already run to the slope at the edge of the valley. When he looked back and saw what was behind him, he suddenly shivered and jumped down from the other side of the slope without looking back.
