Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 619 - 411: Forceful Seizure of the Dragon Vein

Chapter 619: Chapter 411: Forceful Seizure of the Dragon Vein

"It’s bad!"

Deep within the Spirit Academy, the Great Elder suddenly opened his eyes while in secluded cultivation.

The voice, resounding like a great bell through the sky, and the terrifying pressure that suddenly descended, sent shockwaves through his heart!

He immediately broke out of his seclusion and flashed outside in an instant. As he looked up, he gasped sharply.

The sky was now occupied by countless Phoenixes and powerful members of the Ancient Race, led by none other than Gu Feng, whose aura was overwhelming.

By now, the true form of the Tree Ancestor had arrived. It already had a deep-seated grudge with the Ancient Race, and Gu Feng’s insulting term "Little Tree Spirit" instantly ignited years of pent-up anger. The atmosphere between the two sides was already on the verge of eruption.

The Great Elder did not hesitate for a moment. He immediately soared into the air, swiftly moving to the Tree Ancestor’s side, his mind filled with doubt and astonishment.

Today is the day of the Divine Race’s emergence, with the Ancient Race being an important branch of the Divine Race.

They should all be in the Fallen God Ranges, so why have they suddenly appeared at the Spirit Academy, leaving no one behind?

Fortunately, the Tree Ancestor lived through many ages and acted with deliberation, fully aware that this move by the other party was likely intended to provoke. It forcibly suppressed its anger and didn’t immediately act out.

However, the immense pressure akin to an ocean grew even heavier, firmly protecting the Spirit Academy below.

Upon seeing the Great Elder appear, Gu Feng revealed a seemingly amiable yet actually cold smile: "Yu Xiu, it’s been a while. I trust you’re well."

The face of Great Elder Yu Xiu was grim as he cupped his hands and said:

"Elder Gu Feng, today is the day of the Divine Race’s emergence, with the reception handled by the Dubhe Pavilion and all major families in the Fallen God Ranges. I wonder what brings an esteemed elder like yourself so suddenly to our Spirit Academy?"

Gu Feng chuckled lightly and said seemingly casually:

"Oh, it’s nothing major, just some old score that needs settling with your Spirit Academy."

Having said that, he turned his head and said to someone behind him, "Cennan, step forward."

Gu Cennan, whose face was sullen and eyes filled with hatred, stepped forward upon hearing the call, glaring at the Great Elder with distorted anger in his voice:

"Yu Xiu! Let me ask you, my partner Gu Qing and disciple Gu Xue, both came to your Spirit Academy last time to negotiate, but then mysteriously died!"

"How does your Spirit Academy explain this?!"

...

The Great Elder was stunned upon hearing this, his brows furrowed tightly:

"They did come that day, but after a friendly exchange they chose not to share with Elder Lin Chen, they left unharmed. Many students can testify to this at the time."

"Our academy did not trouble them, let alone harm them. Their deaths had nothing to do with our Spirit Academy!"

"Nonsense!" Gu Cennan shouted furiously, eyes bloodshot,

"Their life tokens shattered shortly after leaving the Spirit Academy. On this trip, they only had contact with your academy. If it wasn’t your academy’s doing, who else could it be?!"

"You must have feared the Ancient Race’s retaliation, didn’t dare kill them openly, and then sent people to assassinate them in secret!"

The Great Elder was shocked upon hearing this. Had Gu Qing and the other really died?

But he immediately responded in a deep voice, "I repeat, they left unharmed that day! Our Spirit Academy has always acted uprightly and openly!"

Gu Feng sneered, "Who in this world would dare to touch members of the Divine Race?"

He didn’t give the Great Elder any more chance to argue, a harsh light flashed in his eyes, and he intended to act directly.

"Since you deny it, I will seek justice myself!"

Before his words fell, the majestic Phoenix under him let out a sharp and high-pitched cry. Its wings suddenly flapped fiercely!

Boom——!!!

The sky-reaching golden flames poured down like a dam bursting, in an instant.

It was no ordinary fire, but the Phoenix Karmic Fire capable of incinerating mountains and boiling seas, burning the divine soul.

Wherever the flames passed, the space twisted and collapsed from the heat. The terrifying temperature left all students below suffocating, as if they would turn to ash in the next moment.

This attack had such a wide coverage it truly seemed to want to engulf the entire Spirit Academy in flames!

"How dare you!"

The thunderous will of the enraged Tree Ancestor echoed through the heavens; it had long been prepared.

Countless massive jade branches instantly interwove into a giant green canopy, the surging life energy materialized into a substantial barrier, forcibly blocking the descending Phoenix Karmic Fire.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

Extreme heat and boundless life force clashed fiercely, creating a teeth-grating noise, with gold and green lights frantically intertwining, annihilating each other. The resulting energy shock wave spread like a tsunami, tearing the sky apart!

The Great Elder Yu Xiu was both shocked and furious, not expecting Gu Feng to be so unreasonable, attacking directly with such a brutal destructive move right from the start!

"Gu Feng! Are you provoking the entire Human Race?"

Yu Xiu roared, summoning all the Spirit Beasts, ready to join the battlefield.

"Provoking? Today, I shall first destroy your Spirit Academy as a warning to others!"

Gu Feng grinned savagely, waving his large hand.

The strongmen of the Ancient Race behind him echoed in unison, prompting their Phoenixes and launching a meteor-like firestorm towards the Spirit Academy.

.....

Gu Feng actually understood that the Spirit Academy could not have been the ones who killed them.

The Spirit Academy had always acted prudently, considering the bigger picture.

But the matter was just an excuse, with only one aim, which was to seize the dragon vein of the Spirit Academy.

According to the decisions within the Divine Race, the Ancient Race should emerge first, arrive at the Spirit Academy, seize a dragon vein, and begin negotiations.

Because the Divine Race foresaw that the Human Race would not hand over the dragon vein willingly.

Thus, taking a dragon vein as a precaution against any fallback plans the Human Race might have....

Should the Human Race pursue the Eight Diagrams Nine Cities plan today, creating another demi-immortal, the war would be different.

The Divine Race greatly feared the power of the Ancestor Dragon.

Gu Cennan was not a match for the Tree Ancestor, hence Gu Feng stepped forward personally. His Phoenix was equal to the Tree Ancestor, both lingering at the Demi Immortal stage for years, unable to advance.

They had previously crossed paths.

But no matter how mighty the Tree Ancestor was, it couldn’t resist the strength of the Ancient Race. Four elders summoned their Phoenixes to launch attacks.

The strongest Spirit Beast the Great Elder could summon could only hold its own against one, and the Spirit Academy was utterly defeated.

Other members of the Ancient Race, lacking morality, even attempted to massacre the students.

The Great Elder was enraged, but fortunately, Qin Shaoshao intervened. She released a blanket of leaves, charging in like a war goddess.

"Celestial Spirit Body?!" Gu Feng looked at Qin Shaoshao, unsurprised.

Qin Shaoshao’s information had long been recorded.

They knew precisely how many experts the Spirit Academy had.

"If you dare harm the students, your clan members won’t survive either." Qin Shaoshao spoke with chilling coldness.

Qin Shaoshao was most skilled not in 1V1 combat, but in swiftly eliminating weaker opponents on the battlefield.

Hearing this, Gu Feng hesitated and signaled his kin to stop, then turned to Yu Xiu and said: "The Celestial Spirit Body can’t stop us."

"What do you want?" the Great Elder asked.

Gu Feng squinted and smiled, "The dragon vein!"

"Hand over the dragon vein, and I can spare you all."

.....

Underneath the dragon vein, Lin Chen, who had been meditating with closed eyes, suddenly felt the earth tremble, while the Little Fox and Fire Spirit beside him cried out.

"Did you sense a strong flame?" Lin Chen looked up.

The Little Fox and Fire Spirit had always been sensitive to flames....

"Could it be that something has happened to Spirit Academy?"
