Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Guan Xinting traveled together towards the Spiritual Island of the Vast River, they finally asked the question that had been on their minds.
Upon hearing this, the faces of Guan Xinting and her fellow disciples wore bitter smiles.
Guan Xinting spoke, “To be honest, the main reason why the major Nascent Soul forces in the Nova Waters have erupted into such a massive conflict is because they are fighting over ownership of the Heavenly Water Crystal Mine.” “The Heavenly Water Crystal Mine?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s hearts skipped a beat.
Clearly, both of them were well aware that the so-called Heavenly Water Crystal was a precious water element treasure, particularly valuable in crafting Dharma artifacts and low-grade Dharma treasures.
Not to mention that what they had discovered now was an entire mine.
It was no wonder that the Nascent Soul forces here had completely thrown diplomacy aside and erupted into such a large-scale conflict.
If they were in their shoes, they would find it difficult not to go to war for such a valuable resource.
Guan Xinting then provided more details about the ongoing conflict to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Listening to her, the couple furrowed their brows.
According to Guan Xinting, there were three Nascent Soul level forces currently involved in this large-scale conflict.
They were Dragon Rock Island, Pengtian Spiritual Island, and Azure Sky Island.
The strength of the three forces could be said to be on par.
In the beginning, it could be said that none of the three forces could do anything to the other.
However, as time passed, the strength of Dragon Rock Island became stronger and stronger.
Their actions became more and more domineering and unscrupulous.
In particular, after their Island Master, Perfected Lord Dragon Rock, broke through to the mid-stage Nascent Soul, he started exerting pressure on the two Perfected Lords of Pengtian Spiritual Island and Azure Sky Island.
There was no doubt that a mid-stage Nascent Soul had an overwhelming advantage over two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
With no other choice, the other two forces, which were originally in a chaotic battle, finally chose to join forces after the strength of Dragon Rock Island advanced.
However, even so, they were still not a match for Dragon Rock Island.
In the end, the two forces proposed a peace treaty with Dragon Rock Island.
To everyone’s surprise, Dragon Rock Island actually refused.
Perfected Lord Dragon Rock actually wanted to monopolize the Heavenly Water Crystal mine.
This infuriated Pengtian Spiritual Island and the Azure Sky Island.
Without wasting any breath, the two forces started a true all-out war with Dragon Rock Island.
So far, the number of Golden Core cultivators who had died in the three forces had reached twelve.
And that was not counting the people Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had just killed.
Such a loss had already exceeded the value of the Heavenly Water Crystal Mine.
Now, even if someone wanted them to stop the war, it was impossible.
Unless someone at the peak of Nascent Soul spoke, it was impossible for this war to stop.
This was really a dire situation.
However, for some reason, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan felt that something was amiss.
They couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong, but they had a strong sense that something about this situation was abnormal.
Just as the two of them were thinking about this, Guan Xinting suddenly smiled and said to them,
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Shen, look. That’s our Spiritual Island of the Vast River ahead.”
However, just as she finished speaking, Meng Qian and Chen Qingyang, who were beside her, were suddenly stunned. Their expressions changed drastically.
“How… how could this be…?”
On a huge island in the distance, flames soared into the sky.
Accompanying it were powerful Dharmic power fluctuations.
Among them were four extremely imposing figures that struck terror into one’s heart.
Unfortunately, one of those figures was being cornered by the other three.
“Shifu!”
Guan Xinting, Meng Qian, and Chen Qingyang subconsciously cried out in alarm as they watched the figure being beaten back repeatedly.
At this moment, they could clearly see that the three people attacking their Shifu were Perfected Lord Dragon Rock of Dragon Rock Island, Perfected Lord Pengtian of Pengtian Spiritual Island, and Perfected Lord Azure Sky.
How come?
The three of them were at a loss.
They could not understand why the three forces that were fighting to the death previously would join forces now.
Most importantly, why did they attack the Spiritual Island of the Vast River?
Swoosh, swoosh—
As if sensing the approach of Guan Xinting and the others, seven or eight powerful figures suddenly flew towards them from the direction of the Vast River Spirit Island.
They were led by two false Nascent Soul cultivators.
The remaining five to six people were also at the late-stage Golden Core.
It was obvious that they were sent to kill Guan Xingting and the others.
“Run!”
Suddenly, a loud roar came from the person Guan Xinting and the others called Shifu.
“All of us were deceived by them!
The Heavenly Water Crystal mine, the war between the three forces, everything is fake!
Xinting, quickly leave with Meng Qian and Qingyang! The further you go, the better! Don’t ever come back!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure was sent flying dozens of kilometers by the three people in front of him again.
In the end, it smashed into the sea and immediately raised a huge water pillar that was thousands of feet tall.
“Hehe, you still want to leave at this point?
“Vast River, I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. Today, you and everyone on this island won’t be able to leave!”
A man with a long beard said with a sneer.
This person was the Island Master of Dragon Rock Island, Perfected Lord Dragon Rock.
He was also the one with the highest cultivation at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul.
Beside him were a man and a woman.
It was Perfected Lord Pengtian and Perfected Lord Azure Sky.
At this moment, the two of them also looked at Perfected Lord Vast River who had been thrown into the sea with a teasing expression.
At the same time.
The seven to eight people flying towards Jiang Chengxuan and Guan Xinting had already closed in on them and were only a few hundred kilometers away.
For a Nascent Soul Realm Perfected Lord, this distance could be covered in the blink of an eye.
Even for Golden Core cultivators, it was also a relatively dangerous distance.
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Shen, Junior Sister Meng, and Junior Brother Chen, let’s leave quickly!”
At this moment, Guan Xinting finally came back to her senses.
Without another word, she immediately decided to leave.
However, before they could do anything, the seven or eight people had already launched their first wave of attacks.
Among them, the two False Nascent Soul cultivators in the lead attacked the most fiercely.
In the air, a bell and a tower suddenly pressed down on them with a great force. Buzz, buzz, buzz!
The two Dharma treasures had yet to descend on them, but the terrifying fluctuations emitted from them had already made the air around Guan Xinting and the others thinner.
At this moment, if they turned around to leave, their speed would definitely be slowed down.
Not only could they not escape, but they might also waste the best opportunity to resist.
Guan Xinting looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan apologetically before transmitting her voice to the couple, Meng Qian, and Chen Qingyang.
“In a while, I’ll do my best to stall them. At that time, you can run separately.
Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Shen, I’m really sorry to have implicated you.”
As she spoke, Guan Xinting prepared to burn her blood essence to block the other party’s attack.
However, at this moment, a hand gently pressed on her shoulder.
Jiang Chengxuan looked up calmly and said word by word,
“Fellow Daoist Guan, there’s no need to risk your life. Leave this to me and my wife..”
