Chapter 1011: Going in Circles in the Mountains!
"Master, look quickly!"
Just as Ran Jianxuan was daydreaming, the old man next to him suddenly shouted at him and pointed to a place ahead.
The two of them hurried over and picked up a not-so-small rock from the ground. With a gentle squeeze, the rock turned into powder and was blown away by the breeze.
Then, the old man dug the ground vigorously and uncovered a large gray-white stone, with the same texture as the one they had just picked up.
"How come all these Yuan Stones are destroyed?"
The old man soon discovered in shock that all the Yuan Stones on this mine had lost their energy. Even if he dug deeper, all the Yuan Stones had turned into gray-white color, easily crushable into powder.
This situation was quite strange and hard to understand what exactly was going on.
In such a large mine, who would have the ability to destroy it in such a short time? The energy of so many Yuan Stones couldn’t possibly be absorbed that quickly.
"Whoever dares to attack the Seven Star Sword Sect, I, Ran Jianxuan, will not rest until I bring them to justice!"
Just then, Ran Jianxuan’s voice came from another direction. While the old man was amazed, Ran Jianxuan had already gone elsewhere.
Upon hearing his furious roar, the old man rushed over and entered a cave through a crack in the mountainside.
Inside, they found Ran Jianxuan standing in a rock cave, but the stones that should have been there were nowhere to be seen.
"Whoever took it… who could have taken it away!"
The old man was also in shock, staring at the area in front of Ran Jianxuan with a blank expression.
"Find them! We must find the person responsible!"
Ran Jianxuan became enraged and let out a powerful roar, his aura reaching the heavens.
"Boom, boom, boom…"
Scary energy rushed out of him, creating a terrifying force that shattered the cave in an instant. Countless rocks and stones flew through the air, causing a cloud of dust.
"Master, there are marks left by them!"
At that moment, the old man walked up to Ran Jianxuan and spoke to him.
He discovered the marks left by the others from the Seven Star Sword Sect, which were meant to guide them.
"Those people may not have run far yet. Several elders have already gone after them. We still have a chance to retrieve the treasure!"
Finally, Ran Jianxuan regained some composure and coldly said, "Let’s go!"
The two figures shot up into the sky and quickly moved forward.
The old man on the side watched as Ran Jianxuan squinted his small eyes more and more tightly, feeling a chill run down his own back unconsciously.
He knew what the treasure inside that cave meant, what benefits it could bring to the Seven Star Sword Sect. It could even be said that the entire mining mountain was worth less than one percent of that stone, showing how precious it was.
As long as they use it well, it won’t take long for the Seven Star Sword Sect to become a true second-rate power and firmly establish themselves!
This news was kept extremely secret, only a few of the strongest members of the Seven Star Sword Sect knew, while others remained completely clueless!
However, even so, that precious item was eventually stolen. How could Ran Jianxuan not be angry? Even the old man at the third grade of the Yuan Emperor Realm was furious!
…
On the other side, Su Yi, Su Xiaoshuai, the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, the Soul Devouring Emperor, and Huang Jian quickly escaped, without daring to delay even a bit.
They weren’t afraid of the five people chasing them from behind, but they were worried that other members of the Seven Star Sword Sect might also come after them.
In addition, the nearby Golden Sword Sect isn’t too far away. If they get trapped here, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"After snatching this treasure, the Seven Star Sword Sect definitely won’t just give up. It’s better to go back first, take cover for a while, and then see!"
While running away, Su Yi kept thinking like this.
In the past, he was curious about why the Seven Star Sword Sect had so many powerful experts in the Yuan Emperor Realm guarding a mining ground. It just didn’t make sense.
But he didn’t think too much about it. He thought maybe the other side considered that mining site to be very important, or maybe there were other forces eyeing it, so they sent out many strong experts to guard it.
But now, he realized that all of this was probably because of that shiny green stone. The people from the Seven Star Sword Sect must know what it is and what it’s used for.
That’s why they almost sent out all of their Yuan Emperor Realm experts to guard it!
But in the end, all the benefits fell into Su Yi’s hands. Not to mention the energy of the mine, that shiny green stone was a big unexpected joy!
Su Yi was thinking about how to shake off the pursuers behind him. Using the same trick again probably wouldn’t work. This time, unless those people from the Seven Star Sword Sect are really foolish, trying to deceive them with disguise would be impossible.
"After this, Ran Jianxuan will definitely be furious, so we need to be careful!" Huang Jian reminded, and everyone nodded in agreement.
A third-rate sect with the strength close to a second-rate power should not be underestimated.
A third-rate sect, with power close to that of a second-rate force, should not be underestimated.
The important thing is, Su Yi and Seven Star Sword Sect have had conflicts before. With this new grudge added to the old one, who knows what Ran Jianxuan might do if he goes crazy.
The pain of losing a child, coupled with unimaginable great losses, will definitely make Ran Jianxuan’s heart ache to the point of breathlessness!
Now that the Overlord Sect’s strength has skyrocketed, but Su Yi hasn’t lost his mind. He knows very well the difference between himself and those third-rate forces.
Moreover, the accumulation of knowledge and power that those ancient sects have built over the years is simply unmatched by the Overlord Sect.
"Master, why don’t we go and kill that old ghost from the Sixth Grade of Yuan Emperor Realm before Ran Jianxuan arrives?"
Beside him, the Green Emperor didn’t need to turn his head to see that the five people from the Seven Star Sword Sect were chasing them at full speed!
The main problem is the formidable strength of the pale-haired old man from the Sixth Grade of Yuan Emperor Realm. It’s not easy to shake him off.
If the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, and Soul Devouring Emperor work together, they can definitely kill him in a short period of time. This would make it much easier for Su Yi and the others to escape.
"That mine is not far from the Seven Star Sword Sect, and Ran Jianxuan may be arriving soon. We can’t waste any more time. Let’s circle around in the mountains!"
Su Yi thought for a moment, and said as follows.
If he were to attack the people behind him at this time, it would be very troublesome if Ran Jianxuan were to arrive later.
If they were delayed any longer, it would be even more difficult to escape.
The vast forest was right in front of them. Su Yi felt that as long as they weren’t surrounded, there were still many ways to escape.
With this idea in mind, the group of six no longer flew in the sky, but dove straight into the deep forest.
Behind them, the five members of the Seven Star Sword Sect also quickly caught up, following the subtle traces and trailing behind Su Yi’s group.
At the same time, the people from the Seven Star Sword Sect left unique marks along the way, in order to indicate the route for Ran Jianxuan.
They believed that once the sect leader knew the situation, he would definitely come to catch up!
…
"It’s been really eventful lately!" he exclaimed.
"What happened?"
"Haven’t you heard? One of the mining sites of the Seven Star Sword Sect was raided. Many disciples were killed, including two elders from the Yuan Emperor Realm!"
"What?! Who dares to attack the Seven Star Sword Sect? They must be asking for trouble."
"Haha… Do you think someone who can kill two elders from the Yuan Emperor Realm would be asking for trouble? You should know that one of them is a third-grade Yuan Emperor Realm cultivator, and the other is even more terrifying— the Sixth Grade of the Yuan Emperor Realm!"
"Um…"
Between two wandering cultivators, such a conversation took place. The latter heard the news and had a terrified expression, unable to believe what he heard.
The Seven Star Sword Sect is incredibly powerful and one of the strongest forces in the surrounding area. No one dares to provoke them!
But just a day or two ago, someone actually raided one of their mining sites and killed many disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
"This is not important at all, do you know what the real point is?"
In another place, someone mysteriously asked their companion next to them, with a deep sense of satisfaction in their eyes, as if they were holding a great secret.
"What is the point?" The person next to them was also intrigued.
"The point is, the person who made the move is the young boy who killed Young Sect Leader Ran, Dharma Protector Lu, and the Aoka Split Heavenly Tiger, along with the little bird!"
The person who spoke earlier raised their eyebrows, revealing this shocking news.
Each of the companions beside them widened their eyes, their expressions filled with disbelief.
"How is that possible? Are those two really that powerful? Even if the young boy has deep cultivation, it’s impossible for him to have the Yuan Emperor Realm, right?"
Some people still couldn’t believe it and shared their own diagnosis.
They naturally heard about the deeds of that person and bird before, and were deeply astonished by it.
But the events that happened in Sword Star City were already terrifying enough. However, it is impossible for them to directly confront the Yuan Emperor Realm of the Seven Star Sword Sect and kill their opponent.
"You don’t know about this, right?"
The person who spoke earlier became even more pleased, with his nostrils almost reaching the sky. He said with a buzzing voice, "Don’t underestimate that young man. Not only does he have profound cultivation, but he also has several Demonic Emperor Realm Beast Emperors accompanying him! You know about the Soul Devouring Emperor, right? That’s a notorious existence! There’s also Yin-yang Dark Emperor, who is said to be a fearsome Beast Emperor nearby, along with another powerful Beast Emperor. They are all companions of that young man, and of course, there’s also that little bird!"
Upon hearing these words, the people nearby were left stunned. But this person clearly hadn’t shown off enough and continued, "If I go further back, you may not know, but do you remember when the Golden Sword Sect suffered a loss? At that time, two Demonic Emperors were involved! In addition, one of the former elders of the Golden Sword Sect, who was originally at the Yuan Void Realm, is now following that young man and has even advanced to the Yuan Emperor Realm! It’s just baffling how that young man has such status and origins, being able to gather so many powerful beings around him, especially several Demonic Emperors!"
