Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation-Chapter 688: 356: Four Seas Trading Alliance, Ten Thousand Zhang Merchant Ship
Chapter 688 -356: Four Seas Trading Alliance, Ten Thousand Zhang Merchant Ship
A month had already passed in a flash.
Lu Yun walked out of the Cultivation Room, his desire for further training still unsatisfied.
In this month, his cultivation level had broken through to the Seventh level of the Celestial Human Realm, and the Demon Slaying God-Killing Saber had been elevated to a Seventh Grade Divine Ability.
Besides that, his Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength had advanced further. A hundred and forty thousand Elephant Microparticles had awakened, only the last four thousand remaining before he could complete the first level.
Feeling the surge in his own strength, Lu Yun muttered to himself, “It’s time to leave Nanshan City.”
Having roamed the Guanyuan Mountain Range for over a month and stayed another in Nanshan City, if he didn’t return to the Green Flame Palace soon, his sect would think they had all perished.
He didn’t believe anyone could have escaped the last time Sanyuan Palace attacked the Cold Lake mountain range.
Once they lost contact for a long time, the Green Flame Palace would certainly assume they had fallen like everyone else.
Knowing this, he had to return to the Green Flame Palace right away.
“However, before leaving, I need to find out what has happened during this time.”
After giving instructions to Yuan Yao and another woman, Lu Yun changed his appearance and left the house.
Without much effort, Lu Yun quickly learned about the recent events.
Two months prior, after fully occupying Beihan Prefecture, Sanyuan Palace aimed to take Shanhan Dao Prefecture by storm, but the Blue Sky Sect intervened and ultimately, Sanyuan Palace had to retract all forces back to Beihan Prefecture.
At the same time, Sanyuan Palace attacked the Cold Lake Origin Vein on the Guanyuan Snow Mountain, resulting in the fall of everyone from the Green Flame Palace stationed there, with only one True Spirit Realm Elder escaping.
In response, an Immortal Realm powerhouse from the Green Flame Palace descended upon Beihan Prefecture, prompting the Immortal from Sanyuan Palace to act.
After a battle that shook the heavens and the earth, the Immortal of Sanyuan Palace was severely wounded and fled, and the painstakingly built powers in Beihan Prefecture had to be abandoned.
The Immortal from the Green Flame Palace then withdrew, leaving Beihan Prefecture in the hands of the Blue Sky Sect.
Having successively seized control of both Shanhan Dao and Beihan Hu, the Blue Sky Sect seemed to become the biggest winner.
But the good times didn’t last long. A month later, Sanyuan Palace made a comeback.
The two forces erupted into fierce combat, ranging from the Celestial Human Realm to the Unity Realm, then to the True Spirit Realm, followed by the Entering Saint Realm, and finally, fighters from the World Master Realm joined the battle.
In the end, unable to withstand Sanyuan Palace, the Blue Sky Sect was forced to retreat from Beihan Prefecture.
“In just two months, so much has happened.”
While marveling at the unpredictability of the situation, Lu Yun felt extremely fortunate that he had decided to enter the Guanyuan Mountain Range; otherwise, he would have met the same fate as the other disciples, dying under the siege of Sanyuan Palace.
He didn’t believe he could have been as lucky as Jing Tailan to escape from the tight encirclement.
Moreover, Jing Tailan had only managed to save his life with the assistance of the Blue Sky Sect.
The next morning.
Lu Yun, Yuan Yao, and Chang Xiaorui quietly left Nanshan City under the cover of the dim night.
Just as they were leaving, seven figures clad in black followed them.
“Boss, I’ve looked into it carefully, they rented a heavenly-grade Cultivation Room at the Pan Shi Commerce Association.”
One of the figures in black said, “Three heavenly-grade Cultivation Rooms, that’s at least thirty Lower Grade Origin Stones.”
“Second Brother Wu, are you sure their strongest is only at the early Seventh level of the Celestial Human Realm?” the leader of the men in black asked for confirmation once more.
“Boss, you know my Divine Power; as long as they’re not more than one full Realm above me, I can see their exact Cultivation Level at a glance.”
Second Brother Wu, dressed in a black cloak, slim and with deep-set eyes visible outside of his mask, reassured the leader.
“The young one is in the early phases of the Seventh level of the Celestial Human Realm, and the other two women are at the peak of the Fifth level and the middle of the Third level of the Celestial Human Realm, respectively. With our strength, we can easily capture them.”
At these words, the last traces of caution in the leader’s heart completely vanished.
“Once we’re out of the city, initiate the attack and clean the battlefield quickly after success,” he ordered.
“Heh, boss, you can rest assured. Over the years, our brothers have hardly ever failed. Taking down these three greenhorns will be a piece of cake.”
After all, the weakest among them was at the Fifth level of the Celestial Human Realm, and the leader himself was from the Unity Realm. With such strength, capturing the three youngsters was sure to be an easy task.
Upon leaving Nanshan City, the group of men in black immediately accelerated their pace.
And in a short while, they met face to face with Lu Yun and his company, who had been waiting in the woods.
From the moment they left the Pan Shi Commerce Association, Lu Yun was aware they were being followed.
However, since these followers were hardly worth their attention, he instead saw an opportunity to turn the tables and replenish his own wealth by waiting in the forest.
Indeed, it wasn’t long before the pursuers caught up to them.
“Robbery, hand over all your Origin Stones,” Lu Yun demanded, grinning at the bewildered group of seven in black.
“How dare you!”
After snapping out of their confusion, the leader of the men in black bellowed coldly, his eyes sharply focusing on the blood saber in Lu Yun’s hand. Observing the fighting spirit in Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui, it was clear to him what their intentions were.
They had not only discovered they were being tracked, but they even had the audacity to reverse roles and rob them.
“Brothers, attack!”
The leader, fueled with fury, barked at the six men behind him and then led the charge towards Lu Yun.
“Bring it on.”
Lu Yun’s figure mysteriously disappeared from the spot, and in the next instant, he appeared behind the leader of the men in black.
With a slash of his saber, a bloody saber light streaked through the air.
As he executed the strike, the leader of the men in black felt the impending danger and turned around to strike with his palm, concentrating all his terrifying force into the blow.
