Primordial Harem System-Chapter 432: Running
As the four cultivators activated the technique, the air around them turned sharp with sword Qi flowing. The Sword of the Four Winds was a powerful combination technique that fused the strength, speed, precision, and destructive force of four cultivators into a single attack.
Each of them represented a different aspect of the wind: North Wind for Strength, South Wind for Speed, East Wind for Precision, and West Wind for Destruction.
Liang Hui narrowed his eyes. This was a technique he had heard of—one of the Immortal Sword Pavilion's most renowned and feared skills, capable of overwhelming even the most formidable Elders of Divine Tier Sects.
"You might be able to use a combination technique, but it will never reach the proficiency of our sect's technique." Liang Hui confidently declared.
Bai Wuji brandished his sword. "Let my West Wind sword be the judge of that."
…
Shen Yuan had quietly approached the front of the Stone Gate, looking at the glowing white veil, and felt as if it was trapping some kind of formidable beast inside.
"I wonder who or what created this place. It doesn't seem to be formed naturally, but instead it's as if this place existed here from ancient times." He wondered, looking at the carvings.
[It is indeed man-made, but whoever made it is at the apex of this world. That's why this creation has this heavenly charm to it.]
Hearing her words, he nodded in agreement, "Let's see what they're doing," he said with a smile before he concealed his presence and poked his head inside the white veil.
There, the first thing he saw was the two groups fighting fiercely with each other. 'Oh? They already fell out with each other?' he inwardly said with amusement.
[Your focus should be somewhere else.]
Yue Lan lightly reminded him.
'Oh yeah,' He realized and looked away from the fighting group, but his heart skipped a beat as his gaze landed on the beating heart.
'What the fuck, is that a beating heart? Whose heart is that?' His eyes widened in surprise looking at the massive heart. It was over two feet big.
[Isn't it interesting?]
She asked playfully.
'Amazing, it's indeed amazing. The life energy it exudes is monstrous. I might comprehend the Life Intent here if I can stay for long enough.' He drooled just at the thought of comprehending the supreme Life Intent.
[Stop daydreaming and think about how you can take the heart away from that group of disciples.]
Shen Yuan's gaze landed back on the fighting group, 'From the looks of it, the two groups are evenly matched. So I doubt their fight will end anytime soon.'
[Yes, you need to plan better.]
'Tell me about those formations which are around the heart. Will they obstruct me if I try to take it away?' he asked while looking at the formations around the beating heart.
[No, they won't obstruct you. The formations around it are for drawing upon its power, not to seal the heart. I think the World Raiser Sect never expected outsiders to come here. So they didn't put traps.]
He took a deep breath, 'Then it's possible for me to take the heart and run away from here.'
Yue Lan went silent, letting him decide for himself if he wanted to take this risk or not. She had already helped him more than enough.
Shen Yuan didn't think for long, 'Okay, it's time to test my speed.' He made up his mind and activated his Stormchaser's Pulse technique.
Within an instant, he activated his Fourth Tier Wind Intent and utilized one of the techniques from Stormchaser's Pulse Cultivation Technique.
'Storm Burning Pulse!' His Qi churned before burning rapidly as it gave him extreme speed.
He shot out like a shooting star from the gate towards the Heart. But before he could even close the distance, the two fighting groups stopped and looked towards him simultaneously.
They didn't even bother to see who it was before they attacked with all their might.
"STOP!"
"THIS TREASURE IS OURS!"
Both groups shouted as their attacks neared Shen Yuan. He only glanced in their direction once before looking ahead, calculating the distance. He made up his mind, 'Void Steps!'
He took one step forward and vanished from his place before arriving beside the beating heart. Bai Wuji's group and Liang Hui's group's eyes widened as they saw a familiar silhouette beside the heart.
"Brother Shen?" Both Bai Wuji and Liang Hui looked at him in shock. But they soon realized that he had escaped from Mo Yanhui's attack back then.
Their expressions turned serious as they saw Shen Yuan picking up the heart without any issue, but he couldn't store it in his Spatial Ring as it seemed to still be alive.
He turned towards the group while keeping the heart in his hand, "Farewell my dear friends, we shall meet again if fate permits it." He laughed and activated his Void Steps. And before the group could even react, he left the place in two steps.
Both Bai Wuji and Liang Hui's expressions changed as they understood what had happened.
"Damn that bastard! How did he even survive?!" Liang Hui fumed as he looked at the exit with anger.
Bai Wuji, on the other hand, was much calmer. He took a deep breath, "Did you see how he moved?" he softly asked.
The other disciples had no idea, but he was sure Liang Hui wouldn't have missed it like him.
Liang Hui's expression turned serious at the mention of it, "Spatial powers. Shen Yuan is actually a Spatial Cultivator."
The other disciples' eyes widened in shock. They weren't even this shocked when they looked at the Beating Heart. But this left them shaken to their very cores.
It had been far too long since a Spatial Cultivator had appeared in the Eastern Desolate Region. With the emergence of Shen Yuan, all sects would be after his Spatial Powers—both the righteous sects and the demonic sects.
"But it won't be so easy to make use of him. He is also backed by a Divine Tier Sect. And since he dared to show us his spatial powers, I'm sure he has already thought about the consequences." Liang Hui quickly calmed down and analyzed the situation.
"Precisely, it isn't wise to offend a Spatial Cultivator over a treasure whose use we are not even sure of. That heart might be a treasure or poison for us." Bai Wuji sheathed his sword while glancing around the room.
"We are leaving. There is nothing worthy of our attention here." His group left together with him, leaving Liang Hui, whose eyes flashed with a multitude of thoughts.
…
"Haa…haa…" Shen Yuan took deep breaths, his forehead filled with sweat as he sat down cross-legged to recover his Qi.
Back inside the store room, he had consumed far too much Qi to escape from there, and then the use of his Storm Burning Pulse Technique left him both mentally and physically drained of all his energy.
