Chapter 1200: The Blooded Nine Crow Attacks the Tushan Clan Members, Chu Kuangren Exits the Secret Realm
Outside the Kunlun Secret Realm, a group of cultivators gathered at the entrance with a fierce and frightening aura.
They were cultivators from the Evil Immortal Valley led by the Blooded Nine Crow. Those people were blocking the Kunlun Secret Realm entrance and robbing any cultivators who came out from it. By now, they had gained a huge haul.
“Ha! This is wonderful. Just look at all these treasures. It’s so much easier than searching for them inside.”
One of the cultivators could not help but laugh out loud.
“That’s right. It’s all thanks to our boss.”
“We couldn’t have done it without him.”
The Blooded Nine Crow grinned and said, “Although we’ve looted a lot during these few days, it’s still not enough. The most top-tiered sky-prides and Heavenly Champions haven’t come out yet, and they are our main target.”
“The boss is right.”
“Boss, what should we do if we see Chu Kuangren?”
Suddenly, someone asked at an untimely moment.
…
Upon hearing his name, everyone’s mood was ruined.
Chu Kuangren…
They were no strangers to that name.
Since they planned to rob the cultivators who came out from the secret realm, how could they not pay attention to whatever was happening inside there?
They had planted spies in every corner of the secret realm, so even though they were not inside, they still had a good understanding of the situation inside.
Take the great battle, for instance, where Chu Kuangren single-handedly killed countless sky-prides and Heavenly Champions in a fell swoop.
How could they possibly not know about that great battle?
“If anyone sees Chu Kuangren, retreat at once!” The Blooded Nine Crow took a deep breath and said.
He once glanced at Chu Kuangren and wanted that person to be his prey. However, he now realized that he was greatly mistaken.
There was no way he could be a match for such a powerful being like Chu Kuangren.
At that, everyone fell silent.
“It’s best if we stay away from that monster,” one of the cultivators said.
“Oh well, what a shame. Chu Kuangren will surely have the most loot. If we can kill him, we’ll gain more than all the treasures we’ve ever robbed combined.”
“Just give up on that thought.”
Despite saying so, everyone’s eyes lit up with greed. They could not help but imagine what would happen if they somehow managed to kill Chu Kuangren and obtained every treasure in his possession. Oh, if only that were possible right now!
Whoosh.
At that time, a few people emerged from the Kunlun Secret Realm’s entrance. A charming woman with a graceful figure and fluttering long hair was leading that group.
The Blooded Nine Crow and others perked up upon seeing that.
“Oh, it’s them, the cultivators of the Tushan clan.”
The Tushan clan was a well-known clan in the Immortal World.
Therefore, the Blooded Nine Crow could recognize them at a glance. His eyes lingered on Tushan Fei Yu’s body and could not help but exclaim, “It’s said that the nine-tailed fox cultivators are all stunning beauties, and that seems to be true.”
“Boss, why don’t we…” A skinny grunt walked beside Blooded Nine Crow and spoke with a perverted look on his face.
“Well, I don’t see why we can’t do that.”
The Blooded Nine Crow thought while rubbing his chin.
Then, he signaled a command.
His cultivators understood what it meant and took action, das.h.i.+ng and surrounding Tushan Fei Yu and company.
“What do you guys want?”
Tushan Fei Yu frowned. Her yokai qi was surging steadily and ready to erupt at any time.
“It’s simple. Just leave all your treasures and items, and we’ll promise not to harm you.” The Blooded Nine Crow chuckled.
“Hmph. So it’s a bunch of bandits, huh?” Tushan Fei Yu snorted.
She held her Immortal Weapon and put her guard up. She knew well that any person who dared to conduct such acts of banditry was no ordinary person.
They surely had something or someone to fall back on.
“It seems you’re not going to cooperate then.”
After lifting his hands, the Blooded Nine Crow gestured a grab in the void.
Suddenly, several Daoist patterns flowed in the void, releasing a surge of vast energy that covered up to tens of thousands of kilometers in radius.
A gigantic purple rune gradually began to form in the void.
Tushan Fei Yu and the others instantly felt a surge of invisible energy constraining their movements and immobilizing them.
“This is a rune!”
“What kind of rune is this? To think that it can immobilize all of us at once? Even a True Immortal Rune doesn’t have this power!”
With a grin, the Blooded Nine Crow said, “If I don’t have a few trump cards with me, do you think I’d dare to rob you guys?”
There were two types of runes in the world, one-time Runes and Permanent Runes.
One-time Runes were the most common. Some rune casters could cast up hundreds or even thousands of those runes during battle, so they were not really that special.
After being used once, the energy within the rune would dissipate.
Meanwhile, the Permanent Rune, as the name implied, was a rune that could be used several times.
Those runes were akin to special Immortal Weapons in a way.
However, creating such runes was by no means an easy task. The proficiency of runes required to craft them was simply too high.
The rune the Blooded Nine Crow used was the most top-tiered Gilded Immortal Permanent Rune, and it was also one of the rarest runes out there — a spatial rune.
Even some Arch Gilded Immortals well-versed in rune crafting might not even be skilled enough to craft something like that.
Nevertheless, that was the Blooded Nine Crow’s most powerful item.
With that rune, he had managed to successfully rob so many people.
“I bet even Chu Kuangren wouldn’t be able to do anything against this rune’s power,” the Blooded Nine Crow thought.
Boom!
Just then, a surge of yokai qi erupted.
Tushan Fei Yu had attacked him.
Yet, because of the rune’s effects, her strength was drastically reduced, so she was no match for him.
As he hurled out a punch, a blood-colored punch that contained a very violent aura stuck forward. Tushan Fei Yu was immediately blasted hundreds of meters away.
“You asked for it!”
“I shall beat you to submission and then let you have a taste of my strength!” said the Blooded Nine Crow with a creepy smile, which made Tushan Fei Yu red with rage.
“You despicable human! I’ll have no regrets even if I go down with you today!”
With that, Tushan Feiyu channeled her yokai qi and attacked once more.
Many cultivators were watching the battle from all around. However, none of them wanted to save the damsel in distress.
The Evil Immortal Valley was not a force to be trifled with, after all.
For some of the cultivators there, they would rather get on the bad side of an ancient orthodoxy than anger the Evil Immortal Valley.
The Evil Immortal Valley…
As the name implied, it was the gathering spot for Immortals who had committed many crimes. When all those wicked people gathered, even some Arch Gilded Immortals would be wary about their strength, let alone the onlooking cultivators now.
“Rumor has it that the Evil Immortal Valley Lord was one of the top-tiered Arch Gilded Immortals in this part of the Immortal World. As someone who had bathed in the blood of several orthodoxies before, who would dare to anger him?”
“That’s right.”
“I heard that the Evil Immortal Valley Lord has accepted many Heavenly Champions as his foster children. It seems like he intends to interfere with the Battle of Heavenly Champions to become the evil ruler of this Immortal World and make the whole world a paradise for evil.”
“This Blooded Nine Crow was one of the Evil Immortal Valley Lord’s foster children. Who would dare to provoke someone with that kind of background?”
Everyone was talking about it.
At the mention of the Evil Immortal Valley, everyone became frightened.
Meanwhile, a white figure walked out from the Kunlun Secret Realm’s entrance.
Seeing him, everyone who was discussing how powerful the Evil Immortal Valley was immediately at a loss for words. All of them were terrified.
