Chapter 252: Crisis everywhere
The Crescent City had become extremely lively, especially in the recent days. "More beautiful novels to read. "…
Until now, the number of Martial Warriors s gathered in the Crescent City had at least doubled, and the small city by the sea had become packed and crowded as a result.
All of this was because the team that had received so much attention was about to arrive.
However, the closer the group got to the Crescent City, the stranger the atmosphere in the city became.
In a room on the third floor of a three-storey inn on the northern border of Crescent City, the doors and windows were tightly shut. The light was dim and a figure was quietly sitting cross-legged on the ground. "More beautiful novels to read. "…
It was a man dressed in black, about thirty years of age. He was not tall, his face was ordinary, and on his legs was a long bow, the body of the bow and the bowstring were both pitch-black, as if they had melded together with him. On his back, there was a quiver of arrows tied together, and in the quiver were three long, dark arrows.
"Creak!"
The door was gently pushed open, and a middle-aged man in purple robe walked in. Without even greeting them, he directly sat opposite of the black clothed man, and asked while minding his own business, "They are only about five kilometers away from entering the Crescent City. You Ling, are you prepared enough?"
"Ready?" The black clad man called You Ling slowly opened his eyes, and said with an indifferent expression: "A Martial Master, there"s no need to prepare!"
"Your target this time is not an ordinary Martial Master."
Hearing that, the middle-aged man in purple robe laughed and said, "Obtaining one hundred and eight "Sword Seal" from "Mazy Sword Valley", in addition to successfully fusing with one of the five great Spiritual Fire"s" Nirvana Sacred Fire "… This is the only Martial Master that is so unique, and it has never been before, nor should it ever be again. "
"No matter how unique he is, he is still a Martial Master." The black-robed man"s expression remained calm.
"That"s true. You"ve fought sixteen times and you"ve never failed once. With the battle achievements of four Martial Lord s of the eighth step and twelve Stage Seven Martial Master s in hand, there is indeed no need to care about a mere Martial Master. " The middle-aged man in purple robe nodded and smiled, "However, once this mission is successful, the days that our "Secluded Night Divine Palace" will have to live will probably not be too good." Saying that, middle-aged man in purple robe rubbed his forehead, looking like he had a headache.
"I"m only responsible for killing people, not cleaning up the aftermath!" Quiet And Steadfast closed his eyes.
"..."
… ….
"Finally, the arrangements have been made!"
Almost at the same time, in a small pavilion located at the east side of Crescent City, a soft, aged and hoa.r.s.e voice rang out.
The speaker was a yellow-clothed old man with a thin face.
"I"m in too much of a hurry, so this is all I can do. This was his last chance to make a move. This operation can only succeed and not fail. If he is allowed to return to the Glory Continent alive, it will be difficult to make a move again. At that time, this old man will not be able to explain it to Young Master Fen Ji. "
"I really hate that s.l.u.t. She"s still staying in the Dragon Spring Town and isn"t willing to help at all. Otherwise, how could Young Master only use so little people?"
"..."
He muttered to himself, and the room went silent.
… ….
Ten miles north of Crescent City, a thousand man team was moving quickly.
In the middle of the group, the two carriages did not slow down in the slightest. They were different from ordinary carriages. They were similar to the pa.s.senger s.h.i.+ps in the Angry Waves Sea and also had the Demon Clan"s array formation set up. They were activated with low level "Demon Source Stones", allowing them to completely keep up with the speed of fine horses.
"Hu!"
Inside the second carriage, Tang Huan let out a light sigh, and a tinge of happiness appeared between his brows.
During this period of time, he drank True Fire Spirit Spring everyday to cultivate, and the Genuine Qi had finally risen to the limit of what he could achieve today. From now on, as long as he had the right opportunity, he could condense Spirit Pills and advance to Stage Seven Martial Master.
Of course, this opportunity did not appear as one wished.
In regards to this, Tang Huan was not anxious, because there was no use in being anxious. Congealing Spirit Pills was not like condensing a third stage Spiritual Wheel, where one only needed to constantly cultivate. This threshold was something that some Martial Warriors s had unknowingly stepped over, but more and more Stage Six Martial Master would be stuck in this hurdle their entire lives.
From Stage Six Martial Master to Stage Seven Martial Master, not only was this an increase in strength, it was also an ascension in one"s mental state.
Thus, the process of this breakthrough emphasized the word "enlightenment" even more.
In a blink of an eye, Tang Huan turned to look at the side where the "Flamewing Phoenix King" was. This little girl was still hugging the dark blue ball, and was absorbing the power of the Spiritual Fire. After twenty days, her strength had recovered quite a bit, reaching almost the level of a Stage Two Martial Disciple.
However, Xiao Budian was still deep asleep and didn"t have the slightest sign of waking up.
"If I go back to sleep, it"ll be almost two months."
With a sigh in his heart, Tang Huan"s attention reflexively s.h.i.+fted to his own Dantian. That white bead was still quietly sitting inside the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace". In the past few days, Tang Huan had tried to probe it with the "Profound Yin Soul Demon Pearl" many times but it still did not make a move.
It did not make any unusual moves now, but Tang Huan could not really incinerate those "Profound Spirit Demon Pearls" either.
Tang Huan had wondered more than once whether the orb contained a creature that liked to eat. It had always been sleeping, but after being pulled into its body by the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace," it woke up and started to devour energy nonstop. After eating, they naturally had to digest it. After digesting the power, it started to devour once more, and now it was ignoring the power of the "Black Yin Soul Ghost Demon Pearl". It was probably because it had not finished absorbing the power last time, so maybe after another ten days, it would take action again.
"Haha, we"re almost at Crescent City!"
"Everyone, do not relax your vigilance. Only when you reach Furious Waves City will you all be able to rest."
"Yes sir!"
In response to Tang Xiong, a thousand people shouted in unison.
Tang Huan smiled slightly, on the road here, although the team did not encounter any strong obstructions, they had attacked together more than ten times. Furthermore, the attacks were mostly concentrated on the first ten days after leaving Dragon Spring Town, and the last ten days were basically peaceful and calm.
He must have found out that there was no way to take advantage of it, and he wouldn"t waste his efforts like that.
However, Tang Huan had a feeling that those raids were just an appetizer. The real danger would be after he arrived at Crescent City.
Fortunately, Tang Huan was already mentally prepared.
On the road here, Tang Huan was always surrounded and protected by the Martial Warriors, even by experts like Dugu Yan or those stronger than him, they would still have some reservations when making a move, but near Crescent City, especially after entering the Crescent City, the chances of him making a move would greatly increase.
But no matter what, following the group was still much safer than returning to the Glory Continent alone.
Back then, when no one within Sword Crafting Valley saw it, he was tracked to the area outside of the "Mazy Sword Valley", causing Tang Huan to be extremely wary of the tracking technique that could be used in this world. If he was alone and was caught by someone as powerful as Dugu Yan, he might not even have a chance to use his Grandmaster medallion.
Now, there was no need for him to worry. After all, not only were there Tang Xiong and the thousands of soldiers around, there was even Mu Kui in the horse carriage in front.
