Chapter 558: Emperor Roc’s Harvest
ng Chuan walked over. His Essence Soul World enveloped his surroundings, making his figure blurry. However, the pressure—caused by the difference in ng Chuan and the alien expert’s order in life—made the alien expert tremble uncontrollably.
“Do you want to live or die?” asked ng Chuan.
“I naturally want to live.” The alien expert was very respectful.
ng Chuan nodded. “I can spare you if you tell everything you know about this cave abode and the cultivators who are exploring the cave abode.”
“As long as Senior spares and doesn’t take any of my treasures, I will definitely tell you everything,” said the alien expert imdiately. The promise spoken by a Tribulation Eminence would form karma. Weak people could spout nonsense and violate their promises. However, Tribulation Eminences wouldn’t violate their promises unless they had a good reason. Otherwise, it would affect their cultivation greatly.
A powerful Tribulation Eminence breaking their promise was akin to destroying their cultivation path. Therefore, powerful Tribulation Eminences did everything they could to fulfill promises.
“As long as you say everything, I won’t touch you,” said ng Chuan indifferently. This alien expert was only at the Second Tribulation realm. He was weaker than Emperor Roc, so how many treasures could he have? ng Chuan wanted to know more about this cave abode.
“I’m under Fiend Lord Black Wind, who is from Yufang River System,” said the alien expert imdiately. “I don’t know much about this cave abode.”
ng Chuan continued looking at the alien expert.
“My lord said that he wanted to do sothing important, so he stored us in his grotto-heaven and ca to this cave abode,” said the alien expert. “Before we ca, I didn’t know anything about this ancient cave abode. Even now... I still don’t know this cave abode’s origins and location. My lord only released us after entering this cave abode.”
ng Chuan frowned. “Tell whatever you know.”
“Yes, yes.” The alien expert nodded imdiately. “I know that apart from my lord’s faction, there are two other factions. One faction is Palace Lord Snowjade’s—who is from Three Bay River System. The other is a mysterious Fifth Tribulation Eminence, Ta Gu. I’m not too sure about that person’s origins. My lord didn’t elaborate on him. In short, three factions have entered the cave abode.
“According to my lord, you only need to advance down the cave abode’s tunnels. If you go deep enough, you will have a chance of obtaining treasures,” said the alien expert imdiately. “However, once you encounter other cultivators, only one can advance! The other will either have to admit defeat or be killed.”
The alien expert continued, “Although there are many forks, all the forks eventually converge. Therefore, only one person has a chance of reaching the cave abode’s end.”
ng Chuan listened.
“One has to be fast while traveling through the cave abode because so of the treasures in the cave abode will be taken by the cultivators ahead. Slower cultivators will not receive any treasures,” explained the alien expert. “One can obtain anything by killing the cultivators ahead.
“Also, we can stay in this cave abode for a year at most,” said the alien expert. “Once one year is up, we will be expelled from this cave abode.”
“That’s all?” asked ng Chuan.
The alien expert nodded imdiately. “That’s all. We are mainly competing with Palace Lord Snowjade and Ta Gu.”
ng Chuan nodded slightly.
A one-year deadline? When two cultivators t, only one could continue advancing?
“When did this one-year deadline begin?” asked ng Chuan.
“It’s been seven months since the cave abode appeared,” explained the alien expert.
ng Chuan nodded and imdiately continued forward.
Whoosh.
Only after ng Chuan left did the alien expert heave a sigh of relief.
...
The hunchbacked elder, Old Fiend Black Wind, frowned as he looked at the surrounding columns. Around him were 323 pillars. He had been stuck here for half a month.
“Milord, milord, I encountered a mysterious expert. He’s suspected to be a Fifth Tribulation Eminence.” When Black Wind heard the voice, he looked at the silver bracelet on his wrist. The silver bracelet was a grotto-heaven with many Essence Soul avatars inside.
The weakest second Tribulation Eminence was reporting to him.
“Suspected to be at the Fifth Tribulation realm?” In the grotto-heaven’s sky, Old Fiend Black Wind’s gigantic face appeared. He looked down at the alien expert. “You are relatively weak. You shouldn’t have gone too far. A Fifth Tribulation Eminence has only arrived at your location?”
“I might be mistaken,” said the alien expert respectfully. “However, this mysterious expert does indeed exert terrifying pressure on because of the difference in our order in life. It’s the sa feeling I get whenever I face you, milord. I can vaguely tell that he’s at the Fifth Tribulation realm. Furthermore, he asked about the cave abode. In order to survive, I told him.”
“Okay.” Old Fiend Black Wind didn’t mind.
What his subordinates knew was the most basic information on the cave abode. One could obtain this information after staying in the cave abode for a long ti.
What was truly important, such as the cave abode’s location, origins, and so on, was sothing none of his subordinates knew.
Could it be that another Fifth Tribulation Eminence has entered? Black Wind beca even more cautious.
More and more experts were entering the cave abode.
He originally thought that he only needed to fight Palace Lord Snowjade, but a Fifth Tribulation Eminence from Shura Realm had arrived. Now, another Fifth Tribulation Eminence had also entered the cave abode?
...
Boom! Boom!
A golden light beam and a gray light beam clashed in a tunnel that was only 100 feet wide.
The golden light was ford by Emperor Roc. Emperor Roc spread his wings; he also wore a pair of treasure gloves on his hands.
The gray light beam was a transford skinny, skeletal six-ard alien. The alien’s six arms were strange and bizarre. Each of them held a weapon as it attacked Emperor Roc with all its might.
Both were at the Physical Body Third Tribulation realm.
Although they were fighting in a narrow tunnel that was only 100 feet wide, they fought in unpredictable ways. Their moves were capable of tearing the world asunder. The two were considered the best among the Physical Body Third Tribulation realm.
The six-ard alien had been in the Third Tribulation realm for nearly 10,000 years. It had accumulated quite a bit of insight.
When Emperor Roc first reached the Tribulation realm, he could already match a Third Tribulation Eminence. Once he reached the Third Tribulation realm, he was considered to be one of the strongest in the Third Tribulation realm.
Pfft.
Emperor Roc’s palm was peerlessly powerful. His palm was in the shape of a claw. After fighting for a long ti, one of the six-ard alien’s arms was severed. After the arm shattered, it imdiately transford into countless particles, which then flew towards the stump in a bid to regrow the arm.
However, the void froze, freezing the countless particles.
Rip!
Rip!
Emperor Roc’s moves were cruel, but they contained the void lineage’s profundities. The six-ard alien’s injuries worsened. After losing three of its arms consecutively, it could only sigh and self-destruct. It didn’t want to be humiliated any further.
Boom!
As it self-destructed, Emperor Roc flew backward and slamd into the tunnel wall. His body was stained with blood and feathers, but the wounds healed in the blink of an eye. A smile appeared on his face. Thankfully, I brought a Sixth Tribulation treasure—Void Splitter. With it, I can suppress him with my strength. This idiot, Marquis Ice, brought weak treasures. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have the confidence to kill him.
Marquis Ice—who was at the Third Tribulation realm—was from a low-level world. It was much poorer than Emperor Roc. When he ca to this cave abode on this expedition, he knew that he was in danger of dying. He couldn’t bear to bring any precious treasures with him. His six arms held one Fifth Tribulation treasure and five Fourth Tribulation treasures. His strength was naturally inferior.
After all, Marquis Ice had only accumulated two Sixth Tribulation treasures and many Fifth Tribulation treasures over the years. If he had brought all his treasures with him, it was unknown who would erge victorious.
As for Emperor Roc, he ca from a middle-level world. Furthermore, it was a world with quite a rich heritage. Even though he knew that he might die, he still brought a Sixth Tribulation treasure and other ordinary treasures with him on this expedition. This was because he could afford to lose them!
Of course, Emperor Roc was far inferior to ng Chuan in terms of wealth.
Even Senior Pang Ming—who had cultivated both his Essence Soul and Physical Body—only brought about 10,000 cubes worth of treasures with him when roaming the outer realm. He also carried less than ng Chuan’s true body that road the outer realm.
This Marquis Ice had so gains. Emperor Roc inspected his war spoils and was rather satisfied. Counting all of them, there are nearly 600 cubes worth of treasures. I’ve made a killing. I really did reap a big harvest on this cave abode trip.
...
ng Chuan walked through the lair’s tunnels. His Essence Soul World spread out around him, allowing him to travel without any obstruction.
During the earlier portions of the lair, there were no obstacles. However, he didn’t discover any treasures.
It’s likely that the cultivators ahead have taken all the treasures. ng Chuan also understood this point. He leisurely walked through the lair, but his speed was terrifying. Soon, he arrived at a fork.
The forks headed into two different directions, each leading to an extrely distant place.
Emperor Roc is in this direction. ng Chuan chose one side after sensing Emperor Roc’s location through karma.
Although there were many forks in the lair, they ultimately converged. Many forks were connected, so cultivators would occasionally encounter each other.
As for ng Chuan, he probed the karmic connection between him and Emperor Roc when choosing forks. He was getting closer and closer to Emperor Roc.
Soon. ng Chuan leisurely walked through the cave abode. To him, capturing Emperor Roc was the most important matter. As for the cave abode’s opportunities? They were secondary to him.
