Chapter 640: Bait and Switch~
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Only at Kan-level, the lowest realm for dragon cultivators, Hao Ren could barely shoot out a Sword energy, let alone using the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll.
Faced with three dharma treasures that were whistling from the clouds, the golden s.h.i.+eld shook slightly and shot out three golden lights.
Although Hao Ren’s realm was low, the golden s.h.i.+eld showed its power!
On the one hand, it did it for the sake of Little White. On the other hand, if Hao Ren were killed, it couldn’t go to Ethereal Summit to cultivate anymore.
Although Hao Ren wasn’t its master, he was its partner!
The three golden lights shot from the golden s.h.i.+eld sent the three dharma treasures flying.
The golden s.h.i.+eld had stayed at Taiyi Cave due to its abundant nature essence. However, compared with Ethereal Summit, Taiyi Cave was too small!
The golden s.h.i.+eld liked living in a big house!
“Ugh?!”
The three cultivators yelled in alarm when they saw the golden s.h.i.+eld attacking automatically.
Even their master, Taiyi Cave Master, wasn’t able to use the golden s.h.i.+eld this freely.
“However, it is working with this guy willingly in just a few days? Does this kid have the controlling technique for supreme spiritual treasures?” This thought occurred to them at the same time, “No wonder Master wants him alive!
After beckoning at their dharma treasures, the three Qian-level metal-elemental dragon cultivators took back their dharma treasures before das.h.i.+ng toward Hao Ren.
The Taiyi Cave Master ordered them to avenge w.a.n.g s.h.i.+tong, but they had been cautious since their dead junior brother, w.a.n.g s.h.i.+tong, was a peak Qian-level cultivator. Therefore, they had decided to act together.
Following the tracks of the golden s.h.i.+eld, they had finally found Hao Ren. To their pleasant surprise, Hao Ren was only at Kan-level!
It was the perfect time to act! The first cultivator who caught Hao Ren and took him back to the Taiyi Cave would be rewarded with the Zixuan Cave!
The other two could only get some dharma treasures at most!
The partners now had become compet.i.tors while their dharma treasures whistled through the clouds.
The golden s.h.i.+eld was only a dharma treasure. Faced with three cultivators at Qian-level, it felt like it might not win, so it turned to flee!
The golden s.h.i.+eld was very fast, but the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators weren’t slow. They had a slightly lower realm than w.a.n.g s.h.i.+tong’s, but they had all reached top-tier Qian-level.
w.a.n.g s.h.i.+tong relied on elixir pills and secret methods to unblock the openings in his dragon core, but his true strength wasn’t as great as his three senior brothers!
In fact, these three metal-elemental dragon cultivators who had left the Taiyi Cave hundreds of years ago were only slightly less powerful than Yue Zilong!
After the test attack, the golden s.h.i.+eld fled without fighting, which was the innate personality of a dharma treasure!
If it were brought back to the Taiyi Cave, the cultivators couldn’t do anything to it, but it wouldn’t be as free as now.
To keep its spiritual property, this supreme spiritual treasure must roam freely like a little kid.
“Don’t run!”
The three metal-elemental dragon cultivators’ dharma treasures shot out again.
If the golden s.h.i.+eld were in their master’s hands, they wouldn’t dare to attack it this ferociously. Now that it had betrayed them, they didn’t worry about damaging its spiritual property as long as they brought it back.
Besides, this sly golden s.h.i.+eld wasn’t so easy to be damaged.
Three thin threads of green, blue, and red lights shot out.
Standing on the golden s.h.i.+eld, Hao Ren shot out a sword energy with all his nature essence
His nature essence was insignificant to the top-tier Qian-level cultivators; this sword energy scattered when it shot onto one thin beam of light.
Hua! Hua!
Hao Ren shot out two more sword energies.
Like a pool of still water that was being stirred, the five-elemental nature essence in his body moved more and more freely.
“Go to Kunlun!” Hao Ren pointed at one direction.
Fighting alongside Hao Ren, the golden s.h.i.+eld became obedient and flew toward the Kunlun Mountain swiftly.
The three metal-elemental dragon cultivators chased after him closely. As established masters among the metal-elemental dragons, the three of them could surround a supreme spiritual treasure if they wanted to.
They just didn’t understand how Hao Ren had charmed this supreme spiritual treasure into staying with him and taking orders from him!
When they were cultivating in Taiyi Cave, they had found the golden s.h.i.+eld was an arrogant dharma treasure that only their master could control. In such a situation, the golden s.h.i.+eld should have abandoned the cultivator beside it and fled!
While they chased, their suspicion grew. They believed that Hao Ren had a powerful technique for controlling dharma treasures, and that was why this supreme spiritual treasure was so obedient to him!
Pu…
Hao Ren shot out more sword energies.
They were useless against the pursuing cultivators but seemed to have activated his locked meridians.
Hao Ren hoped that he could recover his realm suddenly and even activate Zhao Haoran’s 1000 years of cultivation strength so that he could fight them!
Swoos.h.!.+
The golden s.h.i.+eld rushed through the border of the Kunlun Mountain.
The three metal-elemental dragon cultivators looked at each other and continued their chase immediately. According to the legends, there were Soul Formation Realm cultivators in Kunlun, but no one had seen them!
If they allowed Hao Ren to escape, they probably wouldn’t find a better chance to catch him!
The Zixuan Cave, the secret controlling technique, and the golden s.h.i.+eld were three things that tempted them on!
“How are you break into the Kunlun Mountain!” Crisp voices sounded at the edge of the mountain immediately.
“Go!” Hao Ren yelled in a low voice.
The golden s.h.i.+eld flew across the inner edge of the Kunlun Mountain, and the young women were one beat slower than it.
However, the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators ran into the pale purple net.
Hiss…
The three metal-elemental dragon cultivators shot out their dharma treasures immediately, tearing open the thin net instantly and continuing the chase.
As top-tier Qian-level cultivators, they were not afraid of trespa.s.sing the forbidden area for dragon cultivators, especially when they were only traveling on the edge of Kunlun!
The golden s.h.i.+eld was so fast that it instantly went further into the mountain than Hao Ren had done last time. The floating white mist and clouds were all nature essence!
In this ancestral G.o.dly place for human cultivators, only one breath of the air could make one feel like an immortal!
s.h.i.+vering with excitement, the golden s.h.i.+eld forgot that it was fleeing. It spun like a tornado, dragging the swirling mist into its body greedily!
The three metal-elemental dragon cultivators who broke through the net put up by the patrolling cultivators also ventured inside without knowing.
“Go!” Seeing the golden s.h.i.+eld still sucking in the pure nature essence with greed, Hao Ren urged it anxiously
If they disturbed the Soul Formation Realm cultivators in the Kunlun Mountain, they would be in trouble.
Hu…
The golden s.h.i.+eld sucked in two tons of nature essence in a hurry.
Not able to absorb all the nature essence, the golden s.h.i.+eld sent the rest into Hao Ren’s body through the acupoints in his feet!
Feeling the abundant nature essence pouring into his body, all his meridians from his Yongquan Acupoints, which was in his feet, to the top of his head were activated. He immediately used the Treasure-Controlling Scroll that Lady Zhen taught him to stay in sync with the golden s.h.i.+eld.
Suddenly, he jumped from Kan-level to Zhen-level!
Seeing the golden s.h.i.+eld using its superpower and sucking almost all the nature essence in this area, the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators knew this supreme spiritual treasure was elevating its level. They lunged forward immediately.
If the supreme spiritual treasure elevated to a higher level, it would take the cultivator who was with it as its master!
“Who dares to steal the nature essence from the spiritual mountain?”
A magnificent voice came from the depth of Kunlun.
If the golden s.h.i.+eld continued, it would dry up the spiritual meridian of the Kunlun Mountain!
Without urges from Hao Ren, the golden s.h.i.+eld ran after eating, flying toward the edge of Kunlun.
Six huge hands shot out from the Kunlun Mountain.
With a full belly, the golden s.h.i.+eld flew so fast that the six huge hands that appeared from the void didn’t catch it!
“Metal-elemental dragon cultivators! What are you doing?!”
The six huge hands slapped toward the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators.
Soul Formation Realm cultivators!
Before they could react, the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators were slapped out of Kunlun with blood spilling from their mouths.
Usually, there was only one Soul Formation Realm cultivator in the Kunlun Mountain. But a few days ago, Lady Zhen broke into Kunlun and took the Kunlun G.o.dly Lamp, causing a major crisis that was unheard of in the last 1,000 years.
Therefore, six Soul Formation Realm cultivators had gathered in Kunlun to discuss it now, but they sensed that three metal-elemental dragon cultivators had enter Kunlun, stealing the abundant nature essence!
The three metal-elemental dragon cultivators were unlucky since the Soul Formation Realm cultivators were in a bad mood; they attacked without thinking or even asking questions.
After Lady Zhen had robbed them, they couldn’t accept weak metal-elemental dragons stealing from them.
Like kites without strings, the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators were sent flying for thousands of meters before smas.h.i.+ng onto a cliff.
After creating three craters, they were buried by the debris that fell from the mountain!
After the adventure with Hao Ren, the golden s.h.i.+eld spun with abundant nature essence, flying toward East Ocean City in satisfaction.
Due to the sudden attack of the Soul Formation Realm cultivators, it couldn’t elevate its level, but it was close!
Ding… Carrying Hao Ren, the golden s.h.i.+eld released a stream of golden light as it drew a beautiful golden line before disappearing into the horizon.
