Chapter 803: Old Acquaintances and Killing Intent
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The news that the defensive barrier of a garden plot was about to be breached caused a commotion within the medicinal garden island.
Lately, there had been quite a number of such incidents. There had indeed been quite a number of natural treasures found within the garden plots that had been opened.
Although most of the good items had been taken by the various superpowers, whatever extras leaked out was enough for these itinerant cultivators to go crazy.
The garden plot was located inside a valley. The valley was huge, and the garden plot wasn’t small either. The huge barrier around it could be seen with the naked eye. Countless streams of Spirit Energy flowed like rivers into the sea, flowing directly into the garden plot.
One could imagine the density of the Spirit Energy within the garden plot.
Chu Yunfan rushed toward the garden plot after receiving the news. At this moment, the surrounding valley was filled with people. This was especially so for those rogue cultivators.
The various large factions had surrounded the various garden plots around the island, so the rogue cultivators could only wait and try their luck.
At this moment, hundreds of people had arrived one after another. The lineup was extremely shocking because these were all Innate level experts.
All of their auras could trigger changes within nature’s Spirit Energy and connect with Heaven and Earth. With these hundreds gathered together, it was extremely terrifying.
If one closed their eyes to feel the aura, it would be as if a dazzling light bulb had appeared in their perception.
These Innate level experts weren’t just human experts. Chu Yunfan could sense that some of them were clearly not human because the aura they emitted wasn’t pure the Spirit Energy of a human. Instead, they were emitting a faint demonic aura.
In front of Chu Yunfan, there was no way to hide it.
And surrounding the enchantment around the garden plot was a group of more than twenty array formation masters continuously cracking this barrier, trying to open it up.
They had clearly tried to force their way in, but the gains didn’t make up for the losses. Thus, in the end, they chose to rely on the array formation masters to slowly grind and wear down the barrier.
And now, the huge barrier that covered more than half of the valley was gradually dimming and was densely packed in cracks. It seemed that with a little more effort, it would be broken through.
And standing in front of this barrier was a proud figure that attracted the attention of some people. Chu Yunfan observed and found that this person was actually an old acquaintance.
It was Wei Zixiong who had escaped from his hands.
At that time, while Chu Yunfan had been fighting against the Jiang family experts, Wei Zixiong had slipped away.
And standing beside Wei Zixiong were more than twenty Innate level experts. All of them were the Wei family experts from the holy land.
The Wei family had deep roots in the holy land and possessed great might. The influence they possessed was even greater than what the Jiangs or the Chus held within the Federation.
After all, the Jiangs and the Chus had been in power for a hundred years at most. Compared to the Weis, their foundation was clearly lacking.
Chu Yunfan glanced at the Weis and sighed. The Weis indeed had a deep foundation. Among these experts, the weakest was at least at the sixth Innate Stage, and most of them were at the seventh or even the eighth Innate Stage.
Compared to the rogue cultivators, they were much stronger. This also made those rogue cultivators not dare to get close.
Not long after, Chu Yunfan saw another group of people who looked like they were walking on air. They all carried powerful auras. The person in the lead was a familiar face. It was Jiang Dan who Chu Yunfan had severely injured two months ago.
In these two months, not only had Jiang Dan recovered, but his cultivation had actually advanced a step further. Chu Yunfan saw that he had reached the ninth Innate Stage. Although he should have reached that stage just a few days ago, it was still considered shocking.
However, Chu Yunfan wasn’t surprised. As the current young master of the Jiangs and a strong compet.i.tor for the next clan head, the resources that Jiang Dan had access to were unimaginable to ordinary people. Looking at his where he was in his cultivation journey compared to his age, it was normal for him to take another step forward.
The arrival of the Jiangs was akin to swallowing mountains and rivers. Their aura suppressed the surrounding rogue cultivators. Jiang Dan and Wei Zixiong stood facing each other. Although the two of them had a personal relationship, at this moment, they were representing the two families in the fight for the treasures within the garden plot.
“Looks like everyone here’s an acquaintance.” Chu Yunfan smirked. Under his mask, a cold smile appeared on his face.
After two months, Chu Yunfan’s strength had undergone an earth-shaking change. It was completely different from before. Previously, Wei Zixiong was able to suppress the experts of the same generation. But now, Chu Yunfan alone was able to beat him into the ground.
“Isn’t that the Masked Master who’s all over the Internet?” Someone spotted Chu Yunfan from afar and instantly recognized him.
Chu Yunfan had been very popular on the Internet recently. The discussions about him never stopped. When he and Marine Whale went head-to-head, over a hundred Innate experts had died at his hands. Marine Whale had paid a hefty price, but he still couldn’t do anything to Chu Yunfan.
During this period, Chu Yunfan had become the focus of countless gazes.
Someone on the Internet had called Chu Yunfan “the Masked Master,” and the nickname stuck. Therefore, when this man saw Chu Yunfan, he immediately blurted it out.
“That’s right! It’s really him!”
Many looked in Chu Yunfan’s direction. Although they could not see the face under the mask, his outfit had already become famous. There should not be anyone pretending to be Chu Yunfan, because everyone knew that Marine Whale was frantically searching for Chu Yunfan’s whereabouts.
Pretending to be Chu Yunfan at this time would be courting death.
“He actually dared to appear here. I think it won’t be long before Marine Whale receives the news and comes looking for him.”
“They have been fighting each other on the Internet for quite some time. Hmph, that Marine Whale isn’t a good person, but neither is this Masked Master. I really want to know who is stronger and who is weaker between the two of them.”
“But with this guy’s arrival, we have one more formidable opponent. How annoying!”
These rogue cultivators discussed animatedly, treating Chu Yunfan as a compet.i.tor. The hundreds of experts who had died at Chu Yunfan’s hands over the past few days were proof of this.
Wei Zixiong and Jiang Dan looked over as well. Although they were perceptive, they failed to recognize Chu Yunfan. Otherwise, vigilance wouldn’t have flashed through their eyes. Instead, they would have instantly surrounded and annihilated Chu Yunfan.
Suddenly, at this moment, another group of people strode over. The leader of the group was a handsome young man with a murderous look on his face. With a shout, he shook the entire valley.
“Where is that b*stard?!”
