Chapter 919: Ownerless Spirit Flame?

~8 min read 1,425 words

Hearing Cao Tian's words, the group of Leaders frowned, all feeling that Cao Tian was being a bit too meddlesome.

Cao Tian seemed not to see the impatience of the few, "This time we are only going for a feint, the most taboo thing is to lose one's head."

"Wan Guiyuan is the Leader of Youzhou and is supported by the Youzhou team; to avoid anyone losing their head, I suggest that this feint team should not accept members from the Youzhou side."

Hearing Cao Tian's words, the gaze Jiuyou turned toward him instantly became even colder.

The gazes of the group of Leaders swept between the two.

After pondering for a moment, they nodded one after another, "That makes sense; since that is the case, the Daoist Friends from Youzhou do not need to participate in this feint."

Upon hearing this, the gaze Jiuyou turned toward the group of Leaders also became cold.

Cao Tian had repeatedly made mistakes, yet these people had never held him accountable.

Until now, they actually still valued his opinions so highly; it was clear they were wary of the Ancient God Palace and were bullying the weak while fearing the strong!

The feint team assembled very quickly.

After the time it takes for one incense stick to burn.

The thousand-person feint team had already completed its assembly.

To be safe.

In this team, not only was there the Leader Stage combat power of Cao Tian following along.

There was also a true Leader leading the team.

This person leading the team was the Leader of Yunzhou, a refined-looking youth dressed in a green robe and holding a feather fan.

"Set off!"

The youth in the green robe closed the feather fan in his hand and flew into the air.

Behind him.

The group of Cultivators followed quickly.

Over a thousand Cultivators flew toward the direction of Wenxian City.

Because they knew there was an Array in Wenxian City that could sense Qi, the group had no intention of hiding at all after approaching Wenxian City.

They charged directly toward Wenxian City.

"Enemy attack!"

Inside Wenxian City, a series of urgent voices rang out.

After just a few breaths.

A curtain of light rose up, enveloping the entire Wenxian City.

At the same time.

A sheet of Spirit Light spread out from the curtain of light, enveloping the group of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators who were approaching at high speed.

The moment they were enveloped by the Spirit Light, everyone's cultivation was suppressed simultaneously, and their speed slowed down significantly.

"What a powerful Formation!"

The group all revealed expressions of awe, but they had been mentally prepared for this; their figures did not pause in the slightest, and they quickly rushed to the outside of Wenxian City.

They launched an attack on Wenxian City in unison.

Over a thousand attacks landed on Wenxian City.

On Wenxian City, a strong Spirit Light suddenly lit up, desperately resisting those incoming attacks.

However.

The successive attacks ultimately exceeded the bearing limit of Wenxian City's defensive Formation.

Amidst a series of crackling sounds, the Spirit Light on the walls of Wenxian City shattered.

Following the shattering of the protective Spirit Light on the walls, the walls of Wenxian City were completely exposed before the group of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators.

And at this moment.

The group's attacks had consumed less than half.

Just as the remaining half of the attacks were about to land on the wall, a layer of deep blue light film suddenly emerged from the earth, spreading up from the bottom of the wall, and in the blink of an eye, it covered the entire wall of Wenxian City.

Boom— Boom—

Amidst a series of rumbling sounds, billowing thick smoke rose into the sky.

When the violent fluctuations dissipated.

The wall was revealed once again.

Although the deep blue light film on the wall had become tattered, the wall within it had not suffered the slightest damage.

Moreover, that deep blue light film seemed to possess a restorative ability, as it was actually recovering rapidly.

In just a few breaths, the tattered light film had already recovered more than half.

Seeing this scene, the expressions of the group tightened.

"This is..."

"A Spirit Flame!"

Ever since the deep blue light film appeared, Cao Tian had been somewhat dazed.

Until this moment, he finally reacted.

A Spirit Flame is a rare and extremely scarce heaven-and-earth treasure of the fire attribute.

He had once practiced a Technique that could increase the power of the Technique by devouring the origin of a Spirit Flame.

He had also relied on this Technique to devour a Spirit Flame twice before.

He was naturally extremely familiar with the aura of a Spirit Flame.

Moreover, he did not sense the slightest aura of a Cultivator within this Spirit Flame.

In this way, there were only two possibilities.

First, this Spirit Flame has an owner, but its owner's cultivation exceeds the Ninth-Order Will Stage.

Second, the Spirit Flame has no owner and is merely being used as the core of the Wenxian City defensive Array.

Exceeding the Ninth-Order Will Stage means having reached the Spirit Transformation Stage.

In this Outer Realm Battlefield, Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivators simply cannot enter, so the first possibility absolutely cannot occur.

In other words, this Spirit Flame has no owner!

Thinking of this, Cao Tian felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

Back then in that Flame World, he had clearly encountered a Spirit Flame but was unable to obtain it, which left him feeling very regretful, and he still dwells on it even now.

He did not expect to encounter another Spirit Flame so soon.

And by the looks of it, the power of this Spirit Flame is much stronger than the previous one!

Hearing Cao Tian's exclamation, the expressions of the group froze simultaneously.

Immediately, they all revealed looks of surprise.

Similar thoughts had also arisen in their hearts as those of Cao Tian.

They guessed that this was an ownerless Spirit Flame.

If an ownerless Spirit Flame has such power, this Spirit Flame is definitely not simple!

However, although the group was surprised, they did not have much greed.

Subduing a Spirit Flame is not a simple matter.

Without special methods and prior preparation, rashly attempting to subdue it is just courting death.

Furthermore, although the Spirit Flame is strong, it is not suitable for everyone.

However.

While the others could remain indifferent, Cao Tian could not.

Such a powerful Spirit Flame.

If he could swallow it, his cultivation technique would surely reach Major Accomplishment.

By then.

His strength would advance further, and when facing the Transformation God Tribulation, his chances would increase by at least twenty percent!

Thinking of this, Golden Light surged over his body, and he escaped directly into the ground.

Seeing this scene.

The Leader of Yunzhou frowned.

This Cao Tian is truly greedy; for the sake of the Spirit Flame, he actually left the team without permission!

However, since this trip is only a feint, Cao Tian leaving the team does not have much impact.

Therefore, he did not speak to stop him.

With a cold snort.

He led the team to continue attacking the city wall.

At the same time.

Above the city wall, the powerhouses of Wenxian City had already gathered and were attacking one after another to block them.

But the Cultivators of Wenxian City were, after all, at an absolute disadvantage in numbers.

The attacks from both sides collided.

The feinting team's attack was only consumed by thirty percent, and the remaining seventy percent landed entirely on the deep blue light membrane that had just finished being repaired.

Accompanied by a booming sound.

The deep blue light membrane became tattered once again.

"In one go, break this defense!"

The Leader of Yunzhou shouted loudly and was about to launch an attack again.

Just as the group's new round of attacks began to brew.

Boom~

A booming sound suddenly came from underground, followed immediately by the earth shaking and mountains swaying.

The Cultivators from Outside the Realm were stunned and subconsciously looked at the hole Cao Tian had drilled into the ground.

Swish!

The moment everyone looked at the hole, a figure shot out from the opening.

It was Cao Tian, who had just entered the ground.

Cao Tian's expression was tense; after rushing out of the hole, his speed did not decrease in the slightest as he swept past the group and fled into the distance.

It had quite a panicked air to it.
