Chapter 1305: Spirit Race Reinforcements
"If I remember correctly, I have no friendship with you two. Now that you've suddenly come to find me, it must be related to that traitor!" The water person asked unceremoniously.
"That's right. We have already discovered the hiding place of that traitor." The silver figure buzzed, its body flashing with silver light, its size shrinking rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it became the same size as the fire person.
"Since you've discovered it, why haven't you struck to capture him? Could it be that you've encountered some tricky problem?" Upon hearing that they had found the person they were looking for, even though the water person's temperament was always cold and harsh, its body couldn't help but tremble with water ripples.
"When we went, we were indeed a step too late. That traitor is truly exceptionally cunning; once he discovered something was wrong, he took the lead and entered the Chaos Valley, sneaking under the Scorching Light Pool in the valley. You should know how terrifying the Scorching Light Pool is without me saying. I'm afraid only Brother Water Charm, who possesses similar water-based divine abilities, can sneak inside and drag him out." The fire person said cautiously.
"Scorching Light Pool? How did he run into that place? Even I don't have the certainty to enter and exit that place safely." The water person's voice became sharp, appearing somewhat annoyed.
"We didn't expect it either. Originally, we had a chance to intercept the traitor. But on the way, we encountered some members of the Demonic Race who intervened, and even a demonic cultivator of the Black Phoenix Race came forward." The silver figure replied somewhat depressed.
"The Demonic Race again? How did they know about the traitor?" The water person became dissatisfied.
"This matter is not very clear, but it should have been leaked by the human side. Alright, we don't have much time to chat here. The battle between us and those demonic beasts will spread quickly, and I estimate that human cultivators will also be searching for us. Now, only Tian Ying and Huang Shi are guarding the Chaos Valley. If a few more Spirit Severing level Human or Demonic existences come, they won't be able to hold out for long." The fire person urged.
"What are you afraid of! Even I don't have the certainty to enter and exit the Scorching Light Pool. How could those humans and demonic beasts easily enter beneath the pool?" The water person returned to calm.
"That's not right. After all, this place is the territory of the Human and Demonic races. If they control the Chaos Valley, we will have no way to retrieve the Divine Blood." The fire person shook his head repeatedly.
"It seems you don't know yet; the people of the Tool Spirit Race will arrive here in a few days. The leader is Xu Tian, one of the eight Great Profound Spirits of the Tool Spirit Race." The water person said in a strange tone, slowly.
"Xu Tian Profound Spirit!" The silver figure and the fire person exclaimed almost simultaneously.
"That's right. Now you know what I mean. As long as we wait for the people of the Tool Spirit Race to arrive, that traitor will have nowhere to escape. We only need to wait patiently for a few days." Water Charm said indifferently.
"But in this way, won't that drop of Divine Blood fall into the hands of the Tool Spirit Race?" The silver figure felt somewhat unwilling.
"Falling into the hands of the Tool Spirit Race is better than falling into the hands of the Human and Demonic races. Otherwise, if the secret of the Divine Blood is cracked, our Spirit Race will suffer no small loss. It's a pity that only we Spirit Generals can be dispatched from our Five Elements Spirit Race now. Those existences above the Profound Spirit level are currently confronting those guys on the other side and cannot be spared at all." The water person sighed softly.
Upon hearing the water person mention "those guys" and other words, the fire person and the silver figure's spiritual light flickered, and it seemed their hearts were all surging with emotion.
"If I remember correctly, you haven't been back from that side for long. How is the situation over there?" The fire person couldn't help but ask.
"Very bad! Although several Holy Spirit level adults have taken action, the Yaksha Race has also dispatched several Yaksha Kings. We can only barely resist the opponent's attacks. These Yaksha Race members are born liking to absorb the spirit of heaven and earth, and many of our divine abilities are countered by them; they are the true bitter enemies of our Spirit Race. As for the Human and Demonic races here, killing some of their low-tier existences naturally doesn't matter, but it is best not to cause any major incidents. Otherwise, once we are attacked from both sides, the situation of our race will truly be unfavorable. Our Spirit Race was originally the weakest among all the races in the Spirit World." The water person remained silent for a while before saying helplessly.
The fire person and the silver figure had nothing to say upon hearing this, their moods clearly becoming extremely heavy.
At the same time, on a bare hill, the woman in palace attire, surrounded by several transformed demonic cultivators, stared gloomily at the entrance of a gray, misty valley not far away.
"How is it? Have you still not made contact with Senior Cai Huan?" The woman asked suddenly without turning her head.
"We have already dispatched several waves of messengers proficient in escape techniques. They will definitely find Senior Cai Huan himself." A burly man with a green face replied in a rough voice.
"That is for the best. You all watch the valley entrance for me; don't let the members of the Spirit Race run away. As long as Senior Cai Huan arrives, he will definitely be able to kill these two members of the Spirit Race. At that time, this palace will also have heavy rewards." The woman promised grimly.
The demonic cultivators were overjoyed upon hearing this and happily complied.
The Black Phoenix Race was one of the seven great royal races of the Demonic Race, so they naturally wouldn't be stingy with their rewards, and the morale of these demonic cultivators rose quite a bit for a time.
On a lush green grassland, over a dozen cultivators were flying rapidly at a height of ten to twenty zhang.
Spirit Lord Huang Liang, the City Lord of Sunset City, and others were among them. The rest were also Nascent Soul or Core Formation stage cultivators.
Their strength could not be said to be anything but powerful.
"Brother Lan, are you sure those members of the Spirit Race are really in the Chaos Valley?" The burly man surnamed Jin asked City Lord Lan, who was flying side-by-side with him.
"Absolutely correct. It wasn't just one or two people who passed this news to me; many people saw this scene. It was just that at the time, the Spirit Race and the high-tier demonic cultivators of the Demonic Race fought a great battle. They knew they were no match, so they could only watch. The Chaos Valley is not too far from us. We can arrive within a few days." City Lord Lan said excitedly.
"Chaos Valley, that place is a bit strange; many people who entered it have disappeared inexplicably. And some people say they have discovered traces of ancient giants in the valley?" The burly man surnamed Jin frowned and interrupted.
"I have heard this rumor too, and I even personally went into the valley to investigate. There are no giants inside; it is clearly just hearsay. As for the cultivators and body cultivators who disappeared, most were low or mid-tier existences. Some places in the Chaos Valley are indeed dangerous; it is not strange at all that they fell there. However, the Scorching Light Pool in the Chaos Valley is somewhat mysterious; I have never risked going deep inside." City Lord Lan said solemnly.
"Never mind whether there are giants in the valley. Even if there really were, with Senior Huang Liang here, there is nothing to fear." The monk glanced at Spirit Lord Huang Liang and inadvertently flattered him.
"Hehe, that is hard to say. I heard that the ancient giant race each possesses the great divine ability to pull up mountains and throw the sun. I am merely a Void Refinement stage cultivator; how could I have such certainty? However, it is indeed unlikely that there are giants in the Chaos Valley. Ancient giants are all low in intelligence and fierce by nature, and they have strong territoriality. If there really were giants, they would have killed all the humans and demonic beasts that entered the Sunset Tomb long ago, and even the ancient beasts would not dare to stay inside. How could the Sunset Tomb remain so quiet all this time?" Spirit Lord Huang Liang smiled indifferently.
City Lord Lan and the others naturally could only nod repeatedly upon hearing this.
Below, these people did not discuss anything else and headed straight for the Chaos Valley.
Not long after, they turned into black dots and disappeared at the end of the grassland.
But after about a stick of incense's time, a flash of white light occurred on the grass, and a human figure slowly rose from the ground.
It was none other than the handsome youth of the Demonic Race.
He glanced in the direction where Spirit Lord Huang Liang had disappeared, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
That Illusion Flame Moth was resting honestly on his shoulder, flapping its wings gently.
The youth narrowed his eyes and watched for a good while, then his shoulder flickered slightly, and his figure sank into the ground again, disappearing.
Han Li let out a loud shout, and the long spear in his hand thrust out violently. A flash of blood appeared opposite, and a winged flying wolf was pierced through the heart.
And just at this moment, a loud sound of breaking air erupted in the air, and dozens of dense wind blades covered his figure. There were actually seven or eight identical flying wolf demonic beasts in the air.
Han Li ignored these wind blades, instead, the crystals at the end of the long spear flashed with spiritual light, and he threw the long spear out, turning it into a black light.
With Han Li's current divine strength, coupled with the activation of the spirit tool's artifact power.
The long spear was like lightning, piercing through the body of a flying wolf in an instant.
At the same time, Han Li below pointed at the spear from afar, and the long spear made a turn, shooting toward another flying wolf.
That flying wolf was startled and spat out wind blades repeatedly, but hitting the long spear could not stop it in the slightest. After a shrill cry, its body was also pierced through and fell down.
At this time, the wind blades falling from the air also slashed densely onto Han Li.
But Han Li didn't even blink, his body flashing with golden light, taking all these wind blades head-on.
As a result, apart from the clothes he had just changed into becoming riddled with holes again, Han Li didn't suffer even the slightest damage.
Next, naturally, Han Li drove the long spear in the air, wiping out the remaining few flying wolves in one breath.
Finally, he beckoned with his hand, and the long spear whistled and flew back, landing in his hand.
Han Li looked down at the end of the long spear and found that the few cyan spirit stones had dimmed.
He sighed softly, shook his head, and slapped the spear shaft with one hand.
With a few "puchi" sounds, the crystals all shook and fell off on their own, dropping to the ground.
Han Li didn't even look at these crystals, which had little spiritual energy left, but reached into his storage bracelet, took out a few other cyan spirit stones, reinstalled them on the spear handle, and then put the long spear away.
Afterward, he swept his gaze over the wolf corpses and walked toward a large tree nearby.
There grew a strange spirit mushroom several inches tall, shining with silver light, its body wrapped in a layer of milky white spiritual mist, emitting an alluring fragrance.
