Free Web NovelChapter 1127: Chapter 502: The Path of Invincibility
"Back in those days, our Witch Race fought a breathtaking battle with other forces over this drop of Star Origin Liquid, with countless deaths and injuries, before finally sealing it here."
After saying this, the elder’s figure gradually dissipated, leaving only a sentence echoed in the air: "Fated ones may obtain the treasure, I hope you use it wisely and avoid repeating the downfall of our Witch Race."
Once the elder’s phantom completely vanished, silence engulfed the floating island.
"Something feels off."
Li Yunjing stared at the three treasures emitting a faint light on the Jade Platform, his brow tightly furrowed as he broke the silence first: "The Witch Race is notoriously xenophobic. Why would they easily leave their legacy and precious treasures to outsiders? Don’t you feel like this is a carefully set trap?"
"Maybe the Witch Race priest had a sudden change of heart and wanted to build good relations?"
Fu Chao swallowed hard, his gaze darting among the treasures, but he forced himself to say: "Besides, the ’Starfall Secret Scripture’ and Star Origin Liquid, those are items that can defy the heavens and alter fate!"
His voice carried undisguised excitement, and his eyes were nearly bulging.
"Fu Chao, don’t forget, there’s no free lunch in the Immortal Cultivation Realm."
Yu Yunyi gently shook her head, her expression grave as she spoke: "The Witch Race was besieged back then, reportedly because they attempted to establish the Witch Race’s order, which threatened other forces."
"Now suddenly appearing as a phantom, giving away their legacy without reservation, surely there’s a bigger scheme behind it."
Her gaze swept over the Jade Bottle, recalling the elder mentioning ’dying from body explosion,’ causing a chill to run down her spine.
"I actually think that the ’Starfall Order’ is the key."
Lv Ruoxi pondered aloud: "To open the legacy site? Must pass tests? What if the so-called tests require us to serve the Witch Race, or even..."
She lowered her voice, "Become their sacrificial offerings to resurrect a powerful entity?"
With those words, everyone’s faces changed, and the air seemed to drop several degrees.
"With treasures appearing, rather than leaving them here to spark greater conflicts, why not let us take custody?"
Li Yunjing gazed at the three treasures, his Mana subtly surging before finally sighing deeply: "The matter of the Witch Race indeed requires careful deliberation."
With that, he extended a virtual hand, the Power of the Five Elements transformed into a light hand, taking the Jade Scroll, Token, and Jade Bottle into his Storage Ring.
"Let’s find a safe place to thoroughly study this ’Starfall Secret Scripture,’ maybe we can develop an entirely new cultivation technique!"
Fu Chao rubbed his hands, eyes filled with anticipation.
As for the distribution of the other two treasures, Fu Chao remained silent, knowing those belonged to Li Yunjing!
Old Li’s contribution was too significant.
On this venture, they had been so smooth, all thanks to Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing enjoys the main rewards, and it’s good enough for everyone else to have a taste!
Fu Chao maintained a rather positive attitude.
As for Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi, they wouldn’t have any objections either.
The two of them and Li Yunjing were practically family.
"Careful! A powerful presence is approaching!"
Suddenly, Li Yunjing seemed to sense something, his face changed abruptly, he called out loudly.
In the distance, a crack appeared in the sky, and seven shadowy figures emerged like phantoms.
The leader was cloaked in black, his face hidden in the shadow of his hood, only a pair of eyes glowed with a blood-red light, staring intently at Li Yunjing and the others.
"Hand over the ’Starfall Order’ and ’Star Origin Bottle’, and I’ll spare your lives." freeweɓnøvel.com
The black-cloaked man’s voice was husky, like sandpaper scraping, filled with an undeniable oppressive force.
"Oh? Who are you, and how do you know the names of the treasures here?"
Li Yunjing’s eyes sharpened, realizing he was in trouble. He harbored an intention to probe for more secrets of the Witch Race, thus he spoke.
"Ignorant boy, with the emergence of the Witch Race’s treasures, those with interest have long known, did you think you could hide it?"
The black-cloaked man let out a sinister chuckle, his blood-red pupils swirling with eerie red light, "Hand over the treasures, I’ll leave you a whole corpse."
Before he finished speaking, the six shadowy figures behind him simultaneously formed seals, as six pitch-black Demon Swords flew out, chains clanking on the sword bodies, rushing towards Li Yunjing and the others to slaughter.
"Since you refuse to reveal your identity, there’s no need to say more!"
Li Yunjing’s Power of the Five Elements surged, the "Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword" sliced out a brilliant arc, Sword Qi collided with the Demon Swords, emitting deafening booms.
"I’m rather curious, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, which Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator dares speak to me this way!"
He pointed his sword at the black-cloaked man, his eyes flashed with a cold glimmer.
As he spoke, the "Celestial Thunder Emperor Seal" was instantly unleashed, Thunder Power transformed into a giant seal a hundred feet wide, smashing down upon the black-cloaked man.
"Heh heh! You think you alone can handle a Golden Core Realm Demon King?"
Yet, the black-cloaked man didn’t dodge, with a raise of hand, a blood-colored barrier appeared out of nowhere, completely blocking the power of the Celestial Thunder Emperor Seal.
"Kid! The entire ’Celestial Wave Star’ is enormous, nine continents, filled with talents, do you really think there’s no one capable of surpassing ranks and slaying Golden Core?"
From his sleeve, a black long whip flew out, its tip shimmered with ghostly blue electric light, snapped with a "crack," like a spirit snake coiling towards Li Yunjing’s neck.
With this said, Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao’s hearts sank, never expecting other forces to possess a powerhouse equal to Li Yunjing’s level!
This was not good news!
"In that case! With such credentials, don’t you dare reveal your background?"
Li Yunjing remained calm, dodging the attack, coldly asked.
"No harm in telling you, we hail from the ’Celestial Demon Sect,’ I’m a true disciple of the ’Celestial Demon Sect,’ Leng Wuhen, here specifically to collect the world’s treasures. The secrets of the Witch Race are beyond your grasp!"
