When system cheat becomes rampant!-Chapter 797 - 582 The Crack in Giant Spirit Village

This was the first time in his life that Flaming Six Wings had been threatened so directly.

But the words of Li Qianluo were already gaining more and more support from the cultivators.

Even those cultivators who had just supported Flaming Six Wings in the annexation of Zha Jiang Stronghold were now standing with Xiang Beifei.

After all, Flaming Six Wings simply did not have the ability to deduce the alternation of day and night, while Xiang Beifei not only had the ability but had also taught them the knowledge of this alternation, an immediate comparison made it clear who was superior!

If Flaming Six Wings refused, they would definitely launch a crusade against him!

"Lord Chi, it’s better for everyone if you hand over Light Valley," someone suggested.

"That’s right, you don’t want us to wage a holy war against you!" another chimed in.

At this point, more than half of the cultivators in Light Valley were already making decisions for Flaming Six Wings, intending to commandeer Light Valley for Xiang Beifei. Their tone towards Flaming Six Wings had turned rather unfriendly.

Flaming Six Wings wanted to burst out in anger but was powerless to do so because he was in the wrong. His Moon God Race would inevitably become the common enemy of the thousands of cultivators along the Black Water Riverbanks! No matter how formidable he was as an individual, that did not mean he could withstand thousands of cultivators alone!

Flaming Six Wings’ head was buzzing. When had he ever thought that his desire to present a benevolent and selfless image to control these cultivators would turn into shackles binding him!

"Where do you expect our Moon God Race’s cultivators to go?" Flaming Six Wings practically squeezed these words out through clenched teeth.

"There are still plenty of places along the Black Water Riverbanks. You’ll have somewhere to settle, but I need to lay out formations in Light Valley. I also need to arrange things in Zha Jiang Stronghold, so sorry, but we can’t accommodate you," Xiang Beifei replied calmly, smiling.

Originally, he had no intention of seizing Light Valley or even bothering to expand Zha Jiang Stronghold’s influence. But since Flaming Six Wings dared to lure a group of cultivators against them under the banner of "deducing the laws of day and night," Xiang Beifei would pay him back in his own coin.

You think to charm the masses to seize my Zha Jiang Stronghold? I’ll charm them right back to plunder you!

Who wasn’t a little trickster, really?

"That’s correct, if our stronghold’s master succeeds in deducing the relationship between day and night and divine inheritance, we will all remember your contribution! After all, you did offer up Light Valley, didn’t you?" Li Qianluo was always one to stir the pot, her words cunningly crafted.

Flaming Six Wings trembled with rage, his breath growing ragged, but he kept himself in check, for losing control of his power would mean shedding his holy appearance and turning into a grotesque, fierce Meat-Winged Monster!

Xiang Beifei didn’t care whether Flaming Six Wings would make a move or not; even if he did, there was nothing to fear. At worst, it would just be another fight.

"If you want Light Valley, take it!" Flaming Six Wings said, too angry to bother with pleasantries anymore. He turned and left!

"But, Lord Chi..." Kana said, not willing to let go.

"Be quiet," said Flaming Six Wings.

Li Qianluo burst into laughter, "It seems that fellow Daoist Flaming Six Wings is still quite magnanimous! If we need to requisition more territory next time, please cooperate with us, Flaming Six Wings!"

Flaming Six Wings staggered, nearly falling over.

It was too much!

His glare was murderous!

But with a cold huff, he did not respond and simply transformed into a streak of light, vanishing from the spot.

——

The friction between Xiang Beifei and Flaming Six Wings came to a quick close. Zha Jiang Stronghold took over Flaming Six Wings’ Light Valley, and although the solemn and majestic white temple with wings was taken away by Flaming Six Wings, it still gnawed at him.

Flaming Six Wings, who had come with the intention of seizing territory, ended up having his own territory snatched by Xiang Beifei instead. This was a humiliation that would haunt him for life!

After this incident, most of the cultivators from Light Valley defected to Xiang Beifei’s Zha Jiang Stronghold, becoming its subsidiary.

Zha Jiang Stronghold, having absorbed most of Light Valley’s cultivators, became the most powerful force in an instant, now fully capable of contending with the Dawn Alliance and the Heavenly Demon Assembly.

In the following days, all the cultivators by the Black Water Riverbanks were earnestly studying Xiang Beifei’s deducing notes, hoping to grasp their secrets.

Although they quickly understood the basic concepts, which weren’t too difficult for a group of powerful cultivators, the main issue was the Tri-Ha Chaos Stone Piercing Variant, because being called a "variant" implied there were no fixed values, meaning they couldn’t make accurate predictions and had to rely on observations to derive specific values.

However, since the Tri-Ha Chaos Stone Piercing Variant required daily observations, this variable still depended on Xiang Beifei, making him the only cultivator capable of predicting the alternation of day and night.

In truth, Xiang Beifei disdained using such methods to win over the people of the Yi Trib; he wasn’t like the Meat-Winged Monster who reveled in using tricks to attract followers. If it weren’t for Flaming Six Wings seeking trouble on his own accord, he would never have used this method to annex Light Valley.

Forming factions in such a confined place was a minor scuffle, meaningless and petty.

Of course, now that things had developed to this stage, he had no intention of speaking the truth about "day and night alternation" to all the cultivators. He couldn’t be bothered to deal with it anymore.

He most wanted to know how to cross the Dark Water River.

"What exactly is in the Desert Stone Cave of Bone Mountain?"

Xiang Beifei sat on the riverside, staring at the opposite bank where the mountains were filled with skulls, and fell into deep thought.

"What are you thinking about, Boss?" Li Qianluo ran over with a giggle, sat beside him, and asked.

"Do you have a way to deal with the Dark Water River issue?" Xiang Beifei asked.

"If I had a way, I would have crossed it a month ago. Do you think I’d be here waiting?"

Li Qianluo spread her hands, then fiddled with the belt of her attire. She wore a light aqua gauze dress today, made of some material that was as light as water and looked very graceful.

"Being stuck here isn’t a solution either," Xiang Beifei said.

"By the way, I haven’t seen you for the past two days. Did you visit Giant Spirit Village?" Li Qianluo asked.

"Why would I go there?" Xiang Beifei had been practicing his cultivation for the past two days.

The Giant Spirit Village could be considered a barrier that prevented them from leaving. There were too many terrifyingly powerful Giant Spirits there. Fortunately, they usually did not leave the village, living there without coming to the Dark Water River bank.

In the eyes of the kilometer-tall Giant Spirits, the cultivators by the Dark Water River were probably just like a bunch of insignificant ants. The activities here wouldn’t attract the attention of those Giant Spirits.

"I had nothing to do, so I went strolling around the Giant Spirit Village to see if I could find any clues," Li Qianluo said.

"You were strolling there? Aren’t you afraid of being hunted down?" Xiang Beifei said.

The senses of Giant Spirits were extremely sharp, or else those Yi Tribe cultivators wouldn’t have suffered such heavy losses when they passed through the Giant Spirit Village.

"What’s there to fear, I can always run away," Li Qianluo said nonchalantly.

Xiang Beifei raised his eyebrow and turned to look at the somewhat quirky girl. This girl always seemed to be carefree, but there was a meticulousness in her rashness; she rarely messed things up.

"Then, did you find anything?"

"I actually did. I found a strange place where there seems to be a stele with many huge inscriptions on it. Unfortunately, I couldn’t understand it. Do you want to go take a look?"

Xiang Beifei pondered for a while and said, "Alright."

They left the Dark Water River bank, concealing their figures as they flew towards Giant Spirit Village, to avoid drawing attention.

The Giant Spirit Village was over a hundred kilometers away from the Dark Water River bank. Although it seemed far, in reality, for those kilometer-tall Giant Spirits, it was only a few steps away, so the two of them were still very cautious, not daring to be too ostentatious.

Once within sight of the terrifying buildings of Giant Spirit Village, they landed and began to quietly advance through a field of chaotic rocks. Ahead, a massive figure was leaning against a stone, seemingly seated and asleep, with a face as huge as a firmament, enormously large.

This guy was snoring, with a rumbling sound that was deafening. Each snore seemed to roll up a bellow and create a terrifying whirlwind. If a God Refining cultivator encountered this whirlwind, they would be torn to pieces in an instant if they were not careful!

"Over here."

Li Qianluo seemed very proficient at this, leading Xiang Beifei down one path, avoiding the Giant Spirits, then walking along the foot of the enormous city wall, rounding a stack of huge rocks about ten meters tall and finally stopping at the edge of a large clump of grass. The plants here were extremely tall, about ten meters, making it difficult to tell whether they were trees or grass.

"I discovered a small crack here last time. Entering through here, we won’t be noticed."

Li Qianluo parted the leaves of those plants. Behind this thicket was a passage about five meters wide, very concealed.

"A five-meter-wide crack?" Xiang Beifei was astonished.

"Nonsense, compared to these kilometer-tall walls, five meters of course counts as a small crack." Li Qianluo, now used to such sights, had already crawled into the "crack" and waved for Xiang Beifei to follow.

Xiang Beifei entered the "crack". The crack was very long, winding about for a hundred meters or so with a strange smell in the air, and the ground littered with various stone chips.

"It’s strange to see such a large crack, with the stones in Giant Spirit Village being so smooth."

Xiang Beifei walked while examining the crack above. The stones here were extremely hard, even he could not smash them, so seeing a five-meter-wide crack still felt odd.

"It was pried open by an enigmatic tree. Look, these are its roots."

Li Qianluo pointed to something at their feet that was as hard as a stone.

"Ruff?" Erha jumped over in confusion, constantly stepping on the dark object. If it were a tree, theoretically, it would be within his control.

Xiang Beifei crouched down to touch it. The object felt like some black jade, warm to the touch, and was definitely not a plant.

"I don’t know if it qualifies as a tree; it’s very strange, a special kind of thing, but probably not a plant. However, it looks like a tree from the outside. Let’s go this way."

Li Qianluo followed the black root, which was getting bigger and bigger, making the available passage increasingly narrow. The black jade-like roots seemed to be blocking the entire pathway, or rather—it was these roots that had split the wall!
