828: Chapter 0784: Parting Ways!
That Streak of Escape Light!
“I’ve t… t Senior Mu before!”
Hearing Lv Zhong introduce Mu Cangqiong as a remarkable person stronger than Jiang Ziya, Palace Master Yao Yue hurriedly perford an ancient ceremony toward Mu Cangqiong.
“Hello!” Out of respect for Lv Zhong, Mu Cangqiong nodded slightly at Palace Master Yao Yue, neither appearing pleased nor displaying any aversion.
It was an acknowledgnt of having t her.
As for Taoist Changi standing beside them, Mu Cangqiong didn’t bother with him at all.
And Elder Changi, despite being disregarded by Mu Cangqiong in such a manner, didn’t dare to let out so much as a peep.
“Lv Zhong, now that your friend’s predicant has been resolved, let’s hurry on our way.
We must get to the center of that tomb as soon as possible, after all, seizing the initiative is paramount—” Mu Cangqiong didn’t want to waste more ti, because the closer they got to the central part of the Dragon Tomb, the higher the level of the fallen ancient beasts, and even the quality of the treasures that could be collected would be better.
Reminded by Mu Cangqiong, Lv Zhong hadn’t said anything yet when Taoist Changi’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he eagerly said, “Yes, the sooner we reach the central region, the greater our harvest will be.
Heh heh, Taoist Lv, Senior Mu, how about we set off together?
After all, the more people we have, the stronger we are…”
With Lv Zhong’s strength not being weak, in the eyes of Taoist Changi, it was at least comparable to that of a six-tribulation Independent Immortal, and that Mu Cangqiong was even stronger.
If they could join forces with these two, they would not only be safer, but the quality of the treasures they obtained would also improve significantly.
At this mont, Taoist Changi was desperate to join Lv Zhong and Mu Cangqiong’s team.
“Humph, foolish talk.
With just you, I fear not only would you contribute nothing, but you’d beco a hindrance—” Mu Cangqiong’s expression turned cold, and her gaze fell unfavorably upon Elder Changi.
Although she had not appeared in the world for a long ti, how rich was Mu Cangqiong’s experience?
She clearly understood Elder Changi’s inner thoughts.
If it were just her and Lv Zhong, their speed would definitely not be affected.
But if they had to take Taoist Changi’s group of four along, it would not only slow down their progress but might even attract greater dangers.
After all, bringing along those with too low strength makes it easier to be discovered by other more formidable cultivators.
Palace Master Yao Yue, however, was quite magnanimous and smiled at Lv Zhong, “Senior Mu is right, Taoist Lv, why don’t you go ahead with Senior Mu?
We’ll et again in the center of the Dragon Tomb—”
Lv Zhong looked seriously at Palace Master Yao Yue, thought for a mont, and then invited, “How about you co with us?”
Damn it, not inviting to go along, and now trying to woo her away?
Taoist Changi shot a glance at Lv Zhong, filled with extre indignation.
If there were no Palace Master Yao Yue, he would still have to take his two disciples, Li Yingqiong and Zhou Qingyun, with him, and the dangers they’d face would definitely increase exponentially.
For a mont, Taoist Changi harbored several more grudges against Lv Zhong in his heart.
He couldn’t help but voice transmit to Palace Master Yao Yue, trying to incite her, “Yao Yue, Lv Zhong has already stolen our opportunity on Earth.
Now, would he be so kind to invite you to join his actions?
I fear it’s ‘the weasel paying New Year’s greetings to the chicken—no good intentions.’ Be careful.
This person is very hypocritical.
He outwardly refuses your Four-phase Pearl, appearing respectable, but behind the scenes, he may want to lure you into a trap and rob the Four-phase Pearl.
After all, the Four-phase Pearl is an Innate Spiritual Treasure, and even Daluo Golden Immortals or Quasi-Sages from the Upper World might covet it…”
Palace Master Yao Yue’s face darkened imdiately, and her gaze swept across Taoist Changi’s face as she voice transmitted a warning, “Changi, speaking ill of others behind their backs is not the act of a gentleman.
Don’t play your little tricks in front of again…”
Taoist Changi’s face changed, and with an awkward smile, he voice transmitted, “Yao Yue, I was just looking out for you.
And besides, before we entered this mysterious space, we made an agreent to stick together through thick and thin.
So…”
“I, Yao Yue, will honor my promises!
You don’t need to keep reminding !” Palace Master Yao Yue coldly voice transmitted, feeling repulsed by Changi’s attitude.
After exchanging words with Taoist Changi, Palace Master Yao Yue pondered for a mont, then turned her head towards Lv Zhong and declined, “Taoist Lv, no need, I’m quite comfortable staying with Taoist Changi and the others.
I appreciate your kindness.”
Palace Master Yao Yue believed that Lv Zhong’s invitation was well-intentioned, but she didn’t want to drag him down and also had her pride and self-respect, so she shook her head.
Lv Zhong was slightly taken aback, not expecting Palace Master Yao Yue to decline.
But since she had made her stance clear, he couldn’t force her.
Furthermore, he had already repaid his debt of gratitude.
If she didn’t accept his kind gesture, he couldn’t be bothered to look after her anymore.
After all, he, Lv Zhong, had done all that honor demanded.
Even if she were to fall in this space, it would not affect his Tao heart.
He nodded, “Very well, since you have made your decision, I will not insist any longer.
Heh heh, Taoist Yao Yue, just be careful.”
“Not bad, you’re quite sothing!” Mu Cangqiong suddenly gave Palace Master Yao Yue an odd look, thoughts stirring in her mind.
She then spread her jade hand, and two peculiar seeds appeared in her palm.
Then, with a smile, she offered them to Palace Master Yao Yue, “Young one, you are to my liking, accept this eting gift.
Heh heh, no refusing—”
With a flick of her hand, the two peculiar seeds gently flew toward Palace Master Yao Yue’s palm.
“This…” Palace Master Yao Yue looked at Mu Cangqiong with confusion, not understanding why the latter’s attitude toward her had changed so drastically in such a short ti.
Previously, Mu Cangqiong had been indifferent toward her, but now she was giving her gifts?
Palace Master Yao Yue had sharp eyes.
Although she still didn’t know the purpose of the seeds, she could sense that they were certainly aweso.
At this mont, Lv Zhong’s face also flashed with surprise.
After giving Mu Cangqiong a look, he voice transmitted to Palace Master Yao Yue, “Taoist Yao Yue, what a stroke of luck.
These two seeds, one is a Stealth Seed, which, after refining, can replace you in death once.
The other seed contains a strike with eighty percent of Mu’s strength.
Even a peak Seven Tribulations Independent Immortal would be severely wounded, if not dead.
Therefore, after receiving these seeds, refine them with your blood as soon as possible, and it’s best not to use them until absolutely necessary…”
Hisss!
Hearing Lv Zhong’s voice transmission, Palace Master Yao Yue sucked in a breath of cold air.
One of the seeds could substitute her death, effectively granting her an additional life.
The other seed contained eighty percent of Mu Cangqiong’s power in a single strike.
It could easily annihilate Independent Immortals and Independent Demons below the peak of the Seven Tribulations.
“This gift is simply worth a staggering amount!”
In this extrely dangerous space, having two such powerful seeds greatly increased Palace Master Yao Yue’s safety coefficient.
“Many…
many thanks to Elder Mu…
Elder Mu for your generous affection…” Palace Master Yao Yue earnestly expressed her gratitude.
Finally, Mu Cangqiong gave Palace Master Yao Yue a smile and said indifferently, “No need to be polite, I have high hopes for you!”
Palace Master Yao Yue smiled slightly without speaking and bowed to Mu Cangqiong again.
Then, her beautiful eyes fell upon Lv Zhong, and she clasped her fists, saying, “Taoist Lv, I don’t know if I will be able to see you again in the future.
Hehe, I wish you good luck, and also, take care—”
“Take care—” Lv Zhong said with a slight smile, returning the gesture.
With the two mysterious seeds gifted by Mu Cangqiong, Lv Zhong believed that Palace Master Yao Yue’s safety coefficient was greatly increased, so he bid farewell without hesitation.
Under the eager gazes of Taoist Changi, Li Yingqiong, and Zhou Qingyun, Lv Zhong and Mu Cangqiong quickly traversed one mountain peak after another, venturing deeper into the region.
*****************
Three days later, they were still flying across the vast mountain range!
“Hehe, Lv Zhong, do you fancy that junior Independent Immortal?
Otherwise, why do you still seem to be lost in thought three days after leaving her?” As they soared through the mountains, Mu Cangqiong teased Lv Zhong.
Startled by Mu Cangqiong’s words, Lv Zhong rolled his eyes at her and said irritably, “Don’t talk nonsense; I’m certainly not thinking about Palace Master Yao Yue.”
Indeed, Lv Zhong held Palace Master Yao Yue in high regard, but it was definitely not the kind of fondness a man has for a woman.
It was admiration for Palace Master Yao Yue’s character!
Although they had fought and had friction over the Dayu Cauldron in the past, and even trapped Mu Yue Wu Shuang, Palace Master Yao Yue’s disciple, in the end-ti world of Dui Ding, it was more important that Palace Master Yao Yue had saved Zheng Linglong, Ao Ye, and Yan Yan.
Above all, Palace Master Yao Yue had previously behaved with such openness and unconstraint that she had given an Innate Spiritual Treasure to repay the lifesaving debt she owed to Lv Zhong.
Regarding a debt of gratitude as more important than Innate Spiritual Treasures, Palace Master Yao Yue was naturally soone Lv Zhong admired and wished to befriend.
“If you’re not thinking about that Independent Immortal, then which woman are you thinking about?” Mu Cangqiong smirked slyly, probing further.
Lv Zhong glowered at Mu Cangqiong and said angrily, “Don’t assu I’m so lecherous, okay?
I’m thinking about the people who have co from the Immortal World and the Netherworld—”
The Immortal World?
The Netherworld?
Hearing this, Mu Cangqiong imdiately fell silent.
After encountering that black Profound Turtle from the Netherworld days ago, Mu Cangqiong had also learned that people from the Immortal World and the Netherworld had entered the Hongng Dragon Tomb.
Initially, before entering this tomb space, Mu Cangqiong thought she only needed to compete with the people from the lower world for the resources and Magical Treasures of this space, and she was full of confidence.
After all, as the Tree of Life that had lived for millions of years, she was at the pinnacle of the pyramid in the lower world.
She was confident in seizing the most treasures.
However, once the powerhouses from the Immortal World and the Netherworld entered, her strength naturally did not give her an advantage.
Thinking of this, Mu Cangqiong couldn’t help but laugh bitterly, saying, “I hope the people who have co down from the Immortal World and the Netherworld are not stronger than Golden Immortals; otherwise, even soone at my level might also et their end in this world.”
Lv Zhong did not speak, his face grave.
Those above the Golden Immortal Realm were definitely not soone they could contend with.
If they encountered such powerhouses, even the strong from the lower world with strength on par with Jiang Ziya and Mu Cangqiong would have no choice but to flee.
However, Lv Zhong was an exception, because in this formidable and terrifying space, his Great Annihilation Pearl, despite being heavily suppressed, was still able to open.
If things ca to a head, he could actually hide inside the Great Annihilation Pearl.
Mu Cangqiong’s eyes whirled around, and she suddenly said, “However, you don’t have to worry, Lv Zhong.
With a Chaos Level Spatial Magic Item, no matter what the strength of those coming, you can remain in an invincible position.
When the ti cos, make sure to take care of your older sister here in a tily manner—”
Before she could finish speaking, Mu Cangqiong’s face suddenly changed dramatically, and she stretched out her hand to point towards the sky up ahead.
A beam of Extrely Bright Escape Light flashed over from the distant horizon…
Escape Light?
To think that in this space, one could still execute the speed of light escape?
