System's Super Sect-Chapter 925 - 868: Unconscious in the Forest
"No!"
"Kid, don’t let me find you!"
"I’ll never forgive myself if I don’t kill you!"
The Meridian Gate shook, and the torrential Vein Qi instantly exploded in the water, creating an isolated area without water.
In the midst of it, Ren Ji roared three times in succession and then reluctantly glanced back at Ye Wuhuan before immediately flying out of the Azure Abyss Pool.
After ascending, Ren Ji did not leave.
Instead, he released his perception, scanning the surface and surroundings of the Azure Abyss Pool, hoping to find any trace.
However, after waiting for a long time, there was no movement in the Azure Abyss Pool.
This left Ren Ji both angry and annoyed!
Seeing this, Ye Wuhuan quickly left the Azure Abyss Pool.
The first thing after leaving was to transmit the events via Sound Transmission Stone to Chen Xie, unable to contain his astonishment as he detailed the events.
"This kid is truly a monster!"
"Able to kill Ji Daoshi and escape from an Earth Unrestricted Expert, his skills are indeed remarkable."
"Only two sessions of the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking remain, and I’m indeed looking forward to seeing him again. Now I understand why the Hall Master insisted on protecting him at all costs."
On the other end of the Sound Transmission Stone, Chen Xie smiled without speaking, casually responded with a few words, and then severed the connection, his smile extremely brilliant.
Just as the Sect Leader said, how could Elder Yun not be prepared?
Elder Yun, having followed the Sect Leader since the Body Refining Realm, truly has skills!
...
A thousand miles from the Azure Abyss Pool.
A small stream quietly flows through the dense forest, suddenly becoming inexplicably turbulent, stirring up small waves.
Rising without wind!
Things different from the norm surely have a demon!
Indeed, after the wave hit the shore, it slowly formed the shape of a person.
The person staggered a few steps from the creek and then leaned against a tree, looking extremely pale.
This person was Yun Liao!
Using a Tier One Water Transformation spell, he transformed into the pond’s water and flowed downstream to escape Ren Ji’s pursuit.
However, he didn’t completely evade Ren Ji’s attack.
Because at the last second of chanting the spell, part of Ren Ji’s attack still hit his back.
Without the Mountain-Suppressing Armor for protection, relying solely on the Fire Spirit Body of Great Success to resist, seemed too fragile under an Earth Unrestricted Expert’s attack.
"The Sect Leader’s words proved true, a mage’s greatest weakness is the physical body... My foundation is still too shallow. Being able to kill Ji Daoshi, who had no knowledge of magic, was fine, but against an Earth Unrestricted Expert, I was still too inexperienced."
Yun Liao smiled bitterly, gritting his teeth, and took out a Life Cigar from his Storage Ring.
For physical injuries, the Life Cigar offers the fastest recovery!
Speaking of, since requesting some Life Cigars from the Sect Leader last time, he hadn’t found the opportunity to smoke them until now.
Snap!
A flick of the finger, a flame manifested.
Lighting the Life Cigar, Yun Liao took a deep drag.
As soon as the smoke entered his throat, he could feel a surge of energy rushing towards his back, beginning to heal the wounds.
At this moment, Yun Liao suddenly squeezed out a smile.
And then muttered softly.
"Ren Ji, when I achieve Perfection in all Five Elements, I will personally come for you!"
Having spoken, Yun Liao took another puff from the Life Cigar.
However, while smoking, Yun Liao’s eyes gradually closed unconsciously.
Then, with a thud, he fell by the tree, lying among the gaps of the gnarled roots.
The Life Cigar also fell to the ground, but continued to burn beside Yun Liao, healing the exposed skin and visible white bone of his back!
...
Jianshui City.
After Yun Liao left Jianshui City, news of the mysterious person killing Ji Daoshi spread like wildfire, becoming known to all within half a day.
At that moment, all the forces, everyone who wanted to participate in the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking, and all the living were speculating about Yun Liao’s identity.
A prodigy under 40 years old, powerful enough to kill Ji Daoshi.
Where did he come from?
What’s his name?
Is he still alive?
Of course, besides being curious about who he is, now more people are curious if he survived, as Ren Ji from the Extreme Force Sect pursued him.
Ren Ji is a genuine Earth Unrestricted Expert, while the mysterious person who killed Ji Daoshi was only in the Mountain Suppression Realm.
Few believe the Mountain Suppression Realm could escape from an Earth Unrestricted’s grasp.
More people think it’s absolutely impossible!
However, when Ren Ji appeared in their sights again, the Earth Unrestricted experts gathered around, offering insincere condolences before inquiring about Yun Liao’s fate.
Ji Daoshi’s death was cause for celebration among them.
They only cared whether the mysterious prodigy who killed Ji Daoshi survived.
When questioned, Ren Ji slammed the door on them, sending the guests away, instantly making it clear—the person was still alive!
Ren Ji couldn’t kill him!
This caused many factions to explode in excitement.
A group of Earth Unrestricted experts eagerly turned it into a topic of conversation over meals.
"Truly the rising wave pushing the old wave, that mysterious fellow managed to escape from Ren Ji’s grasp, really has some skill."
"Ren Ji must be fuming now. I heard he personally went to Jinzhi Tower’s domain last night, offering a reward of 100,000 White Crystals for the mysterious person."
"What? Seriously? Ren Ji actually sought Jinzhi Tower’s help, when he was mocking them just days ago?"
"Mockery aside, Jinzhi Tower truly is powerful, it’s an undeniable fact. Who dares to claim omniscience in this world? Apart from Jinzhi Tower, who else could uncover that person’s identity? But let me tell you, Jinzhi Tower didn’t bother with him at all. After pocketing the 100,000 White Crystals, they simply replied they’d notify him upon discovery. Don’t ask how I know, I just happened to pass by and heard someone in the shop respond to him like this. That old fellow’s face turned green, but he didn’t dare to make a scene, and ultimately left obediently."
Suddenly, the Earth Unrestricted experts in the tavern burst into laughter.
However, after a while, the focus of everyone’s attention returned to Yun Liao and the soon-to-open auction.
At this moment, a gigantic Wing Race Demon God rapidly approached outside Jianshui City.
The aura of the Demon God, comparable to the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression, fell upon Jianshui City like a storm cloud, causing the Earth Unrestricted experts to all gaze at the sky outside the city.
Upon seeing the massive fiery red Demon God resembling a sunset, everyone’s expressions changed drastically from earlier.
Some were surprised!
Some were shocked!
Others were worried!
As this demon was known as Nine Deaths and Nine Lives Bird, rumored to have nine lives, belonging to a bloodline of extremely high status among Demon Gods.
Most importantly, throughout the Red Domain, it only serves under the command of the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall!
"This auction has even attracted the people from Jisheng Hall."
"Seems like these ten Vortex Maps won’t be easy to purchase."
Looking up at the Nine Deaths and Nine Lives Bird, those Earth Unrestricted experts sighed repeatedly, then focused on the figure behind the bird.
They were very curious which big figure from Jisheng Hall had arrived?
Could it be the Hall Master?
It seems only the Hall Master of Jisheng Hall can command the Nine Deaths and Nine Lives Bird.
Meanwhile, Chen Xie also watched the scene, displaying unprecedented solemnity.
"The thing I feared most has happened."
"Not only is the Red Leaf Sect here, but Jisheng Hall has come too."
"Jisheng Hall is responsible for managing all subsidiary forces under the Domain Master, yet the Sect Leader has no intention of subjugating!"
Murmuring softly, Chen Xie quickly took out the Sound Transmission Stone to relay this message to Wen Ping within the Sect.
However, the reply received was just one concise sentence.
"What’s meant to come will eventually come!"
