Chapter 409: One After Another (III)
“A Solar major monster spirit...” Tidal Wave’s eyes gleamed. “It’s not easy to get up to the Solar level. Perhaps it’s the one that sent us the minor spirits harassing us along the way. We might be able to obtain some treasure if we kill it.”
Half Mountain, however, was on guard. “Tidal Wave, it’s better not to take rash action. The further in we venture, the more dangerous I find this place. Perhaps... there are Nova level monster spirits present! We’ll easily create trouble for ourselves if we do anything.”
Tidal Wave frowned fiercely. This Half Mountain was afraid of this and that. How did he manage to get to Nova?
“Half Mountain, we’re already here. Are we supposed to just pretend we didn’t see anything? Are we giving up the chase? Stop scaring yourself. Even if there are Nova monster spirits, you and I are both Novas as well. Is there a need to be so wary?
“We haven’t seen the bodies of Li Hao and his team yet. If they can avoid trouble, is there a need for us to be afraid?”
Sunderers were freely walking ahead of them, what was a Nova being so scared for?
“Solar level monster spirits will have some mysterious power stone reserves at the very least. If not, their flesh and blood are treasures too. I’ve heard that their blood can sometimes unseal some special origin weapons! You know just as well that there are souls within the origin weapons—weapon souls! They’re very similar to these origin weapons and it\'s said that blood from the same origin can activate them!
“Most origin weapons are inert these days and can’t be activated. There wouldn’t be so few of them otherwise. But if blood from major monster spirits can rejuvenate them... There are those in the central region who specialize in these monster spirits. They focus on the trade of activating origin weapons and each transaction brings a fortune!”
Monster spirits were walking treasures. These origin weapons seem to have something to do with them.
Half Mountain was silent for a while before nodding. “Go take a look then. It’s best to stay away if there’s trouble, however. Let’s try not to kill anything if possible.”
“Don’t worry!” Tidal Wave laughed and flew into the air. She soared one hundred meters before seeing a snake next to a marsh in a copse of trees. it was enormous and churning through the marsh. This was the Solar monster spirit they’d sensed before.
Greed glinted in Tidal Wave’s eyes. A Solar monster spirit was an excellent find! Some mysterious power stones were also being churned out of the marsh with the snake’s exertions. They shimmered with light.
The busy snake seemed to sense something and swung its ponderous head around to look into the air. It abruptly rolled itself and swam rapidly through the area, vanishing into the jungle and swiftly getting away.
A powerhouse!
“We were discovered!” Tidal Wave laughed. “It ran off... Should we chase after it, Half Mountain?”
The man didn’t respond, so the woman continued, “I saw it swallow some dirt when it slithered off. There were at least twenty stones glittering in the muck...”
Twenty mysterious power stones was no small sum to them. And yet, Half Mountain still elected to quiet.
“Let’s take care of it along the way.” Tidal Wave had already flown away. “Perhaps Li Hao is over there. It would be a waste to not claim this unexpected fortune since it’s presented itself!”
Some words were on the tip of Half Mountain’s tongue, but he followed the woman in the end. Hopefully, nothing happens. No other points of light appeared on the luopan. The snake spirit seemed to be the only monster spirit in the area.
......
The big snake thrashed furiously through the forest at top speed. It sensed danger and proceeded along the path that would lead to the sheared off mountain. Plainly, it knew that safety could be found there.
Li Hao saw three balls of light approaching at a quick clip; he rapidly backed away. One of the balls was of the Solar level—it was a monster spirit that he’d seen before. It was time to get out of its path!
The other two balls of light... were very large! Novas!
People from the three great organizations?
One of them seemed slightly familiar—there was some darkness in the ball of light. Celestial! He’d seen a Celestial Nova the day he emerged from the ruins of Battle Heaven. Was this... Half Mountain of Celestial?
This fast? Li Hao’s heart was his throat. He’d made quick time with his people and his pursuers were tracking him, not simply following him. And yet, they’d found him so quickly! He’d underestimated their methods by far.
Are they hunting that Solar monster spirit? Li Hao avoided them and waited for the monster spirit to get away. Two balls of Nova light flashed in front of him moments later. They vanished in the direction of the sheared off mountain.
Oh? They’re going to their own deaths without needing me to lure them there? A strange look entered the young man’s eyes; he came to a sudden halt just as he was about to follow them. A mild breeze blew through the area before long as balls of light manifested.
“Court Master Revolution, those two seem to be chasing a major monster spirit. Is there treasure to be had?” Voices could be heard on the wind.
“Shall we follow them? We’re not afraid of them—there’s sixteen hell masters here. Who cares about two Novas? They may not be able to match us!”
“Let’s follow them, treasure can always be found where monster spirits are. Celestial’s Half Mountain is not bad, though. He’s headed in the same direction that we determined before Li Hao disappeared. We’ll find the kid sooner or later if we follow them!”
A group of people vanished from sight as Li Hao sucked in a sharp breath. The fuck?? Yama has so many Solars to call upon? Seventeen of them!!
Indeed, there were seventeen balls of light. The number scared the wits out of Li Hao. He’d thought that people might come from Yama, but he’d anticipated one Nova. Seventeen Solars was an astounding number. Where did the organization get so many Solars from?? And they were all peak Solars with the Revolution King leading the group. The man wielded an origin weapon! If they worked together as one whole, the two Novas might not be a match for them.
Are they crazy? Li Hao found it incredulous. He could understand Red Moon sending a Nova after him and... probably understand Celestial sending a Nova. Yama, he couldn’t wrap his mind around. Did those seventeen Solars want his head or that of the two Novas?
The young man frowned ferociously. Those fellows had tracked him here and proceeded at high speed. Based on their progress, they might catch up to him tomorrow.
But are they all crazy? They’re all running for that place, do they want to die? Li Hao wondered to himself, seriously doubting their sanity. Even with all of these powerhouses on the scene, there were four major monster spirits that rivaled Hou Xiaochen in that direction. The trespassers were still dead without a doubt even if they were bolstered by another Nova or two!
The young man didn’t want to watch the inevitable chaos for fear of being dragged into the mess. His ears twitched just as he was about to leave. Another figure flashed across his vision, one that came with some hints of blood qi. There was no accompanying ball of light. Li Hao blinked, who was this?
A martial master?
They were too far away for him to sense the other clearly, but it felt vaguely familiar. Umm... Southern Fist?
Was it that fellow? What was he doing here?
Li Hao remained motionless and locked his auras away. When it came to martial masters, they relied on sensing their opponent’s aura if they wanted to identify where the other was. His were locked in his organs. These people would find it nigh impossible to detect him if he kept a firm grip on his auras.
What a party! Li Hao could sense that Southern Fist had already disappeared and inwardly shook his head. Things were certainly lively, so many powerhouses had barged in all of a sudden. Southern Fist... wouldn’t follow them, would he? If he did, he would be in for quite some trouble.
But the young man wasn’t kindhearted enough to reveal himself to give the man a word of warning. Southern Fist came from the royal family and his attitude was ambiguous. It was impossible that he didn’t have designs on Li Hao with his foray into Ash Mountain.
Perhaps he was here to kill the young man, who knew? As for saving Li Hao... how would he be so kindhearted? The young man didn’t believe that the other would take such a risk to save him. Their relationship wasn’t to that degree.
Was there anyone else? Li Hao remained still and quietly waited. One minute, two minutes...
He tensed to leave after ten minutes when a very faint sensation arose and promptly vanished.
Confusion appeared on the young man’s face. Had he made a mistake, or had someone truly passed by just now? Southern Fist had been accompanied by the sensation of blood qi, but this last hint was quite imperceptible. It was like a furl of wind had brushed by.
Li Hao furrowed his brows. If that had been a person, they were like a martial master—and a very strong one. He could sense a thing or two about Southern Fist, but the one who just came only gave him a very faint feeling.
There’s no such martial master in Silver Moon, is there? And yet, Li Hao suddenly thought of someone. No... way? That one’s in closed door cultivation! And, is that one really that strong? He had a ball of light around him before, he was a supernatural. It’s not him.
The young man was well familiar with the light of initial Solars. Martial masters came devoid of light. Therefore, Li Hao overturned his hypothesis. It wasn’t the one he thought of, another powerful martial master had come.
Golden Spear?
Very possibly!
Warmth flooded Li Hao’s heart. Had Golden Spear come to save him? How nice of him! Li Hao couldn\'t think of anyone stronger than Southern Fist in Silver Moon. If that person had had light around him, he would’ve guessed Hong Yitang.
Golden Spear...
Urgency suddenly gripped Li Hao. Although he wasn’t familiar with that person, he couldn’t let the man go to his death if he was here to save his subordinate.
Li Hao quickly rushed off in the relevant direction.
......
Up in front.
Hong Yitang suddenly looked back with confusion. Was there... someone nearby? No, right? Is there anyone who can evade my senses? Supernaturals can’t, and what martial master can hide from me?
There was no time to think further on it. He quickly departed the premises to catch up to the people ahead. Those fellows were so impetuous and reckless. Hopefully they didn’t lure out any stronger existences and doom his daughter.
