The lava waves rose again.
Long Yue’s face darkened. A pitch-black saber came into his hand. He danced forward ferociously.
Earth Splitter!
The slash opened a crack twenty meter deep. The force lashed out for a thousand meters straight at Ayshan.
Ayshan who had been static all this while finally moved his body. The attack coming from an S-tier ancient warrior was something he had to respect.
Immediately, Ayshan followed up with another attack. Their immense battle aura instantly altered the topography near the edge of the Blood River Battlefield.
This was the supremacy of S-tiers!
There was almost nothing they could not do or change.
At the same time, Long Yunyi did not get involved. He took a step back and let the two fight freely. Through conscious connection, Long Yunyi greeted Qin Feng.
“Hey, my young friend.”
“Master Long!”
“Master Long!”
Qin Feng and Bai Li greeted him politely.
Long Yunyi sized up Qin Feng. He was clearly impressed and said giddily, “It’s been a while and you have improved dramatically. It’s commendable that you could actually withstand Ayshan. But I guess that’s not too surprising. You have taken away an arm from He Tianxing before, after all.”
Qin Feng had been tight-lipped about He Tianxing. Those who knew about He Tianxin’s injury thought that he had recovered well from it. But losing an arm was no small matter. Those from the Long Family knew He Tianxing must have suffered greatly from the injury when they heard the news.
Qin Feng believed Long Yunyi was being complimentary. But he did not want to brag and wished to maintain a low profile in front of the S-tier. As such. he replied humbly, “It was a coincidence then that I had a life-saving trump card. This time, I have no choice but to go up against Ayshan.” He then conveniently changed the topic. “I was meeting with Master Hu San here. Ayshan suddenly showed up right at the critical stage. He clearly came with ill-intent. I could only try my best to stop him from interrupting Hu San.” Qin Feng believed Long Yunyi must recognize who Hu San was.
Long Yunyi’s expression changed slightly after listening to Qin Feng. He had obviously noticed the igloo. Despite that, the aura left behind by Hu San had been dispersed by Qin Feng and Bai Li’s runes in the battle earlier. Thus, although Long Yunyi had his guesses, he could not confirm them. Qin Feng’s words verified his doubt.
He could now largely grasp the series of events that led to this point.
Long Yunyi always put on a simper, which gave out a friendly vibe at all times. If he was not an S-tier, others would have mistaken him for a classy businessman.
“Hu San is in a critical stage? Perhaps, if I am not mistaken, he has found the blood concentrated crystal? Is it as magical as it is rumored to be?”
Qin Feng knew Long Yunyi was probing. He did not hide it and answered honestly, “The rumor is true.”
Long Yunyi nodded and asked, “Do you have any left? Would you like to sell one to an old folk like me?”
If not because of Long Yunyi’s status and his perspicacious gaze that would only come with enough vicissitude, Qin Feng would think that this young-looking man in front of him had to be joking.
Just as Qin Feng was about to answer, he was interjected by the sudden entry of another S-tier’s aura.
This time, it was fairly close. This S-tier must have concealed his presence and stayed in the shadow all this while.
But now, he announced his presence furiously.
“Long Yue! Isn’t the saber you are holding my Sky Demon Sword!”
Speak of the devil! The newcomer was none other than the lord of Dark Citadel, He Tianxing.
After he suffered the injury, He Tianxing had healed rapidly but it left behind a minor side effect. It was nothing to an elect of his prestige. Yet, what if such hidden faults affected his judgment during a battle? In a real battle, any slight misjudgment would lead to an error, and an error would in turn lead to crisis.
That was why he had also come here hunting for the blood crystal to eliminate the concern.
Coincidentally, he bumped into the battle between Long Yue and Ayshan on his way. Though the saber in Long Yue’s hand had been completely reformed using the Magical Tesseract, it still bore some of its original quality.
He Tianxing immediately knew when he saw it. He could no longer contain his anger. It was embarrassing enough to have his weapon robbed by a B-tier brat. Now, his beloved weapon was almost beyond recognition and was in the hand of a nemesis. That was a tough pill to swallow.
Long Yue was currently caught in a fight with Ayshan. He Tianxing could not find a more suitable time and place to vent his anger.
“Ayshan, let me help you.”
S-tier aptitude users mostly knew each other. They seldom get caught in a fight like this. Because their battle would often cause large-scale destruction to the surroundings. They could not afford to further deteriorate their already limited habitat on Earth.
Now that they were in a different dimension, they had been freed from that concern.
The balanced battle tilted heavily toward Ayshan after He Tianxing joined the battle. The gap between the S-tiers was minimal, to begin with. To handle two S-tiers at once was vastly difficult.
Long Yunyi could no longer chat leisurely with Qin Feng. He had to help pin down He Tianxing.
“He Tianxing, your weapon was lost because of your own incapability. Why are you blaming my nephew instead? Come, let me be your opponent.”
He Tianxing was startled when he saw Long Yunyi. Apparently, he too feared the legendary Master Long.
Regardless, he had little time to think and was forced to take on Long Yunyi’s assault.
In that instant, the attacks from all four S-tiers came together.
Crack!
Something in the nothingness seemed to have been shattered by them. A black orb appeared in the center of the collision and ramped up rapidly.
It was a spatial rift.
The Blood River Realm had been extremely unstable. Now it had gone full-blown.
The rift expanded infinitely and spread toward the four elects, trying to engulf them. The four S-tiers had no choice but to back off from the rift center.
The rift extended greedily for a few thousand meters more and ripped apart the space-time on the land of this unstable realm.
The four elects escaped to the air and looked at each other. Their urge to battle had cooled off rapidly.
The altercation between them had caused an irreversible calamity. They tacitly agreed such a battle should stop at once.
Promptly, a group of monsters rushed out from the rift. These were C-tier beasts. They were two-meter high and looked a lot like frogs. They were black in color with dark green puncta all over their bodies. It was a disgusting creature.
Gong Ge who was watching this from a few thousands meters away had blood sapped away from his face.
“Run! They are beasts from the Voodoo Forest!”
“The rift is connected to the Voodoo Forest? We are doomed!”
Despair wrapped those left behind in this collapsed realm.
Voodoo Forest was the most dangerous region known to them. No one had ever set foot in their realm. It was said that countless venomous creatures breed there. The Blood River Realm was already a harsh enough environment to stay in. They could not imagine how deadly it would be now with the invasion of creatures from the Voodoo Forest.
But no matter how bleak the future looked, survival instinct always kicked in first. Everyone ran at their first chance. This included Qin Feng and Bai Li.
However, as soon as Bai Li’s spatial runes were triggered, it attracted He Tianxing’s attention onto them.
“You are here!” He Tianxing’s killing urge blazed high.
