Fang Yun stood up and looked deeper into the forest, his eyes flashing with scarlet light.
“What is that… A relic?” Fang Yun’s eyes seemed to be capable of seeing deep into the forest, he soon located something. His mouth curved up and he immediately started rushing inside the forest, preparing to go and get the relic.
…..
Ye Xiao and Phantom were rushing through the forest at an extremely high speed. Along the way, no Chaos Beast dared to confront the two of them because of the horrifying aura coming from Ye Xiao’s body, and Phantom’s natural bloodline suppression to the weaker beasts.
Ten days soon passed and right now, Ye Xiao had already entered the core area of the Dark Moon Mountain Forest.
Suddenly, Phantom stopped and looked in a certain direction.
“What is it?” Ye Xiao asked.
Phantom spoke, “I just felt the presence of the descendent of Exalted One. His aura disappeared in that direction!”
“Let’s go then, hurry up and chase!”
Phantom hesitated a little, but when he remembered the strength Ye Xiao had shown in the past few days, instantly killing even beasts of Three Stages of Spirit Fusion, he was relieved and started chasing after the dissipating aura.
Very soon, they appeared in front of a huge mountain. ．
“This is… the Dark Moon Mountain. This forest is named after this mountain!”
Ye Xiao was able to immediately recognize the mountain.
Phantom also nodded his head and continued to follow the aura, and very soon, arrived at a place where many strong peoples were gathered. There was no lack of Chaos Spirit Realm warriors, even warriors of the Three Stages of Spirit Fusion could be seen here. It was obvious that something very important was happening here.
Ye Xiao soon saw traces of a brilliant light emitting not far away, giving it a mysterious feeling.
“That’s the entrance to a relic?”
A hint of excitement flashed across Ye Xiao’s eyes as he looked at the place that was emitting a bright light.
“Yeah, it’s just that the relic seemed to be sealed right now, so we can’t enter right now.” Phantom nodded and spoke, but it was not looking at the brilliant light but at a young man standing not far away.
Ye Xiao also followed the Phantom’s gaze and soon spotted Fang Yun, who was looking at the relic with shining eyes.
“Is he the one?”
Ye Xiao frowned. It is because… Shouldn’t the descendent of an Exalted One be a chaos beast? Why is he a human?
However, he again shook his head and held back his curiosity.
After all, Fang Yun is not necessarily a human, he might just look like a human but is from a different race. Or maybe he has just taken the shape of a human. It could be anything.
“Yes, it is him!”
Hearing the positive reply, Ye Xiao observed Fang Yun closely. He could tell that Fang Yun was not even a Chaos Dust Realm warrior, however, from the wound on his hand, he could feel a horrible aura. This aura could not be easily sensed, if not for his entire body, soul, and senses being tempered with the Chaos Origin by the Lotus of Chaos, Ye Xiao would definitely not have felt this aura. It was a very well-disguised aura.
Ye Xiao did not immediately approach Fang Yun, instead, he decided to wait for the perfect opportunity.
For now, he shifted his gaze and started looking at other people.
It is just that he was completely unaware that when he shifted his gaze, Fang Yun turned to look at him. Fang Yun was also frowning, not knowing why Ye Xiao was observing him for quite a while earlier. Does he know something?
Then Fang Yun again shook his head and started looking at the relic, a greedy light flashing in his eyes.
Ye Xiao observed the crowd.
There were already quite a few people gathered in this area. Although they were separated from each other, they still regularly took up a part of the area. After all, this is the core area of the Dark Moon Mountain Forest, and this mountain in front of them was the Dark Moon Mountain. It was famous for many things, but mainly for the life-threatening dangers. Even now, powerful Chaos Beast could be seen rushing out from time to time.
“I never would have thought that so many powerful peoples would come here.”
Ye Xiao looked around and found that there were more than a hundred of them. And amongst them, at least half of them were Chaos Spirit Realm warriors. Far away, Ye Xiao could see quite a few areas where even more powerful people, at the Three Stages of Spirit Fusion, could be seen waiting for something. Maybe, they were waiting for the light barrier to disappear so that they could enter the relic.
“The allure of this relic is not small. Seems like this relic is not an ordinary one. What kind of relic is this exactly?” Ye Xiao muttered in a low voice and kept observing the surroundings.
As a Chaos Beast, Phantom decided not to enter the relic.
When Ye Xiao asked why, Phantom’s reply was simple. It could feel a restriction inside this relic, this restriction made it feel threatened. It was as if the Phantom dared to enter the relic, it will immediately be killed.
Thus, Phantom decided not to take the risk.
Since that was the case, Ye Xiao told it to wait for him outside and then blended into the crowd, and started listening to them.
From the people’s conversation, he come to know that these people all came from eight main cities of the Floating Cloud Domain which is controlled by the Floating Cloud Sect.
Every main city has a secondary force controlled by Floating Cloud Sect established, and those secondary forces were also coming for this relic very soon.
Two forces have already come, and six more remained to come.
Ye Xiao already knew a few pieces of information. He knew that the Floating Cloud Domain has a total of nine main cities. Aside from the eight main cities where secondary forces are established by the Floating Cloud Sect, the last main city was the Floating Cloud City where Ye Xiao wanted to go in order to use the teleportation formation and teleport to the Divine Formations City.
“Screech.”
Just as everyone was waiting, the crisp cry of an eagle could be heard as a fiendish aura could be sensed from afar. Everyone’s faces changed slightly. They raised their heads to look at the distant horizon. A black dot was quickly closing in. Its speed was extremely fast.
In just a few seconds, it was already above them.
“It’s the people from the Golden Eagle Palace.” Everyone’s expressions could not help but change when they saw the several hundred feet large eagles above their heads.
Golden Eagle Palace was one of the eight secondary forces.
Ye Xiao looked towards the eagle in the sky. He could see a dozen young men and women standing on the eagle’s back. Each of them had an extraordinary bearing. Glancing at the eagle, Ye Xiao could not help but let out a light sigh: “As expected of the secondary force controlled by an overlord force, just this mount has already gone through the First Stage of Spirit Fusion.”
The dozens of young men and women in the sky disdainfully swept their eyes over the crowd and landed on a nearby mountain peak.
“Damn, why are these eight secondary sects so arrogant?”
The eyes of those young men and women clearly couldn’t avoid the crowd below, which made many of them exceptionally angry. However, anger was anger, causing trouble was impossible.
Putting aside the fact that these newcomers had powerful backgrounds, none of them were weak. Moreover, who knew if there was an old fogey following them in the dark.
Ye Xiao looked over and saw a group of young people standing on the high ground. Their gazes were staring at the people below playfully. Ye Xiao swept his gaze over them and then stopped on the man in the middle.
This man was dressed in yellow and exuded a noble aura. He had a handsome face and an extraordinary temperament. Standing in the crowd, he stood out quite a bit. What Ye Xiao paid special attention to was the dangerous aura that Ye Xiao sensed from this person.
“What kind of relic is this exactly? This man has already gone through Three Stages of Spirit Fusion and is only one step away from becoming a Minor Saint. Even he is attracted here!”
A hint of seriousness flashed across Ye Xiao’s eyes. These large sects indeed had an extraordinary background.
Suddenly, Ye Xiao sensed something else. He turned his head and looked at Fang Yun who was standing not far away.
The current Fang Yun was completely different from the one he saw earlier.
Earlier, Fang Yun was just like an ordinary person who has yet to become a Chaos Dust Realm warrior.
However, the current Fang Yun was wearing a golden robe and had an extraordinary temperament. Most importantly, his cultivation was already at the Peak of Chaos Spirit Realm.
