The middle-aged man was terrified, his eyes revealing a color of fear. He couldn't imagine the fury of the young master's older brother if he found out that his younger brother, who had chased after the Tao Rhy Blood Fruit, was killed here!
And as their protectors, they would be even harder pressed to escape bla.
Li Hao, hearing the middle-aged man's words, picked up the sword that had fallen on the ground. The sword shone with a silvery sheen, its construction exquisite, containing a dim silver light.
After listening to the middle-aged man, he turned his head and glanced at him, then casually tossed the Divine Sword.
With a whoosh, the sword light suddenly broke through the air, charging into the tide of swords and slashing toward the middle-aged man's head.
The middle-aged man was horrified. He pulled out a Sacred Heart treasure talisman and burned it, turning it into a black clock shadow that enveloped his body.
But the next mont, the bell rang out with a tremor, torn apart by the silver light, and slashed straight at his shrinking pupils.
This Divine Sword was extrely sharp, and in Li Hao's hands, it unleashed power that far surpassed what the previous young man had exhibited, cleaving the middle-aged man in two!
The man's Divine Soul was also severed and erased.
"You, kid, you sure are decisive in your actions. It's a sha that the one from Defying Fate Realm got away."
Ji Yun Ge had been hidden on Li Hao's body all along, not revealing herself. Watching as Li Hao swiftly dispatched this young descendant of the Qin Family, she couldn't help but smile.
"The other party won't go back to signal, will they?"
Li Hao frowned, a bit worried that fighting the small fry might bring the big ones, which would be quite troubleso.
"Most certainly."
Ji Yun Ge said, "Otherwise, what would be the point of the Qin Family sending soone from the Defying Fate Realm to stay by this kid's side? However, it seems they don't plan to go back."
As he spoke, a plu of black smoke shot up from the distant mountains, as if it were so sort of signal.
"That's the Qin Family's call for reinforcents. It seems there are other Qin Family experts nearby."
Ji Yun Ge continued, "It seems they plan to take their revenge imdiately."
...
In front of a crimson-red cliff, there was a huge hole in the cliff face, partially exposing a few dozen zhang of twisted, withered vine, seeming to twist and twitch slightly.
On the lower hills outside the cliff, many figures gathered. They were dressed differently, each the young elite of various tribes and clans from within Great Wilderness Heaven.
They gazed upon the body of the Crimson Blood Vine Demon King, their eyes gleaming with anticipation, waiting for its ergence.
They had originally co here to compete for the Tao Rhy Blood Fruit, but unexpectedly found the Crimson Blood Vine Demon King undergoing transformation, refining its second blood body.
Now, the transformation process was halfway complete, and it could not stop even though it sensed these intruders; it was helpless to do anything about them.
They, too, decided not to interrupt, quietly waiting for the second blood body to fully erge. That blood body, equivalent to absorbing most of the essence and dicinal power of the Crimson Blood Vine Demon King, was like a ten-thousand-year-old blood ginseng just sprouted, ten tis more precious than the Tao Rhy Blood Fruit.
So, when the Tao Rhy Blood Fruit was seized earlier, there were few who pursued it.
Aside from watching for the birth of this second blood body, it was also because the Ancient Holy Clan, the Qin Family, had sent a young master to pursue and kill the thief.
They had restrained themselves from clashing with the Qin Family over a single Tao Rhy Blood Fruit, but this second blood body was different.
"The Qin Family's prodigy, Qin Tianchen, is also here; it might be difficult to compete."
"It's all up to chance now. The Crimson Blood Vine Demon King is not easy to provoke, and there are other clans watching too. Let's see who makes the first move."
The gaze of many focused on several extraordinary figures in the crowd, one of whom was especially striking: the prodigy of the Ancient Holy Clan, the Qin Family, Qin Tianchen.
There were rumors that he possessed an Innate Holy Bone, an exceptional talent, and was said to have the deanor of a saint. He could cultivate at the age of three, reached the Divine Travel Realm at ten,
stepped into the Tianren Grandmaster level at fourteen, entered the Immortal Realm at seventeen, and was extrely fierce, having slain a Demon King in a reverse state of power.
Now, only twenty-four years old, his strength was already on par with many of the older generation, dominating one side, and it was said that not long ago he had even ventured deep into the Great Wilderness alone to slay an ancient fierce creature!
In the crowd, Qin Tianchen stood with an illustrious air, extraordinary bearing, quietly staring at the Crimson Blood Vine Demon King inside the cave.
Not far from him, several other figures occasionally cast glances his way, their eyes filled with seriousness.
It was said that he had already reached the limit of the Power Passage Realm, grasping a state of Divine Power, and to everyone's surprise, he had co here as well.
While everyone waited, suddenly, a trail of black smoke soared into the sky from afar.
The two elders beside Qin Tianchen saw it and were startled, their expressions imdiately turning grim; that direction was precisely where their second young master had gone earlier.
A flicker of recognition crossed Qin Tianchen's face as he noticed it, too. Usually impassive, his eyes now widened, and a trendous aura burst forth from his body, shooting up towards the heavens.
"Big young master!"
From a distance, a Divine Soul raced over swiftly. It was the elder who had previously attempted to kill Li Hao.
```
He saw Qin Tianchen who had just leaped into the air and hurriedly said, "Young master, soone is trying to steal the Tao Rhy Blood Fruit and wants to kill the young master."
"Who?!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tianchen's pupils constricted. He had co here precisely to protect his brother and help him acquire the Tao Rhy Blood Fruit. Now soone dared to kill his brother?
All those who had co to compete were already here, none had left.
Seeing that only the divine soul was left of the old servant in front of him, his face changed, and he asked, "Where is Tian Yu?"
"I... I only managed to escape by using my Defying Fate ability..." the old servant suddenly beca sowhat incoherent, his heart filled with nervous fear.
Seeing this, Qin Tianchen's eyes suddenly shot out lightning-like divine light, "You an to say, you abandoned my brother and escaped alone?"
"Great young master, please hurry and save the young master..." the old servant quickly said. He had escaped using his Defying Fate opportunity, but the young master was only at the Tao Heart Realm; he likely could not escape from harm. He could only hope that they were still in ti to make it there.
Qin Tianchen's face turned ugly, wishing he could slap the servant to death, but there was no ti to pursue the matter. He turned around and stepped forward, about to chase after him, when he saw a figure in the distance rushing towards him, wearing a golden-threaded robe and holding a shimring silver sword.
This attire was exactly like his brother's.
But the one wearing it was a young man.
Li Hao, having fled from the great battle in Liangzhou to the Mo River, had long been in tattered clothing. After killing that young man, he took his clothes, which happened to be a Treasure Garnt, as sothing to cover his body, replacing his own ripped robe.
As for the divine armor, which was already ruined, he had been too lazy to take it.
Coming here now was to strike first to gain the upper hand, as well as to avoid being caught escaping, and having them search beyond the Great Wilderness Heaven, causing trouble for the Dayu Divine Dynasty by attracting a powerful enemy.
"So many people?"
Li Hao glanced around and saw figures on mountaintops both near and far.
His gaze locked onto the divine soul of the old man and, seeing him pleading in front of a youth, he imdiately understood that the youth was probably the target of the man's plea for help.
"Was it you?!"
Qin Tianchen saw Li Hao wearing his brother's clothes and holding his brother's sword and his eyes imdiately reddened. His previously icy deanor instantly turned furious. Your next journey awaits at empire
"Who are you?!"
Two old n beside Qin Tianchen also rushed over. Seeing Li Hao's attire, they were shocked and urgently yelled.
The incident here alerted everyone, causing all those nearby waiting for the Crimson Blood Vine Demon King to be born from the blood body to look over in astonishnt.
From the looks of it, the Qin Tianchen's brother who had just been pursued seed to have been slain?!
Li Hao's attire was imdiately recognized by them. His clothes had been stripped, and his weapon lost, which clearly ant that the person was gone too!
"Who is that person, so young!"
"He looks like he's in his teens, right? Which clan's prodigy is he?"
"He dares to kill soone from Ancient the Qin Family and even chase after them? This guy's got so nerve!"
Everyone watched in shock, buzzing with stunned discussions.
"Listen well, I am from the Ancient Divine Clan, Heavenly Clan!"
Li Hao, hearing the old man's question, thought to himself that they were paving the way for him. He had arrived intending to disguise his identity; if he just walked away, he didn't know what ans the Ancient Holy Clans had at their disposal. If they traced him back to being from outside the Great Wilderness Heaven, that wouldn't end well.
Since you all are Holy Clans, it's not too much for to be from a Divine Clan, right?
Hearing Li Hao's loud response, there was a mont of silence in the heavens and earth, leaving everyone dumbstruck.
Ancient Divine Clan?
Had they heard wrong? They had never heard of this na!
In the Great Wilderness Heaven, was there really such an ancient divine clan?!
Everyone was shocked, feeling as if their horizons had been broadened.
Qin Tianchen was also shaken, astonishnt showing on his furious face, Ancient Divine Clan?
His family elders had never ntioned it, and the Ancient Holy Clans were called Holy because their ancestors were Ancient Sages!
Therefore, they all had the bloodline heritage of Ancient Sages in their bodies.
This young man before him claid to be from a divine clan; could it be that he was a descendant of gods?
But in this world, where are there gods? They had never even heard of such a thing!
