Chapter 728 - The Scavengers

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

By the riverside, Chong Daqing only considered for a mere second before jumping into the crystal clear water that just appeared in front of her.

“Sashimi and fresh seafood… I’m coming!” She screamed, then plunged into the bottom of the river and immediately began feasting.

Whether it was freshwater mussels, shrimps, turtles, or fishes, nothing escaped her huge mouth.

“Ah, Daqing, are you going to be okay?” Saki Yamanashi asked with great concern.

Although they had only just met at the Land of Sanguinity and it had only been half a month since they had met, she had already grown affection for this innocent, cute and pure green insect.

“Don’t worry, she’ll be fine, but someone else won’t be,” Black Robe said calmly with his arms crossed over his chest.

“Are you sure, Uncle Black Robe?” Saki Yamanashi was still worried.

“Yes. Eh, you don’t seem to have lost your memory. Sure enough, Owner’s Scripture of Great Ordeal is truly remarkable. A cultivator can’t even be affected in a mere arcane realm,” Black Robe exclaimed as he suddenly realized this problem.

“Well, Master’s abilities are certainly marvelous,” Saki Yamanashi said affirmatively, her sight never leaving the riverbed.

Right this moment, she then saw the many creatures in the river slowly decrease at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

The black shadows that once filled the river were now rapidly spacing out.

Evidently, those that disappeared had already entered the big mouth of Chong Daqing.

At the same time where Vigilante A was at.

Everyone had their doubts about Black Robe’s sudden disappearance, but since he indicated that he was going to find a comrade, nobody gave it a second thought.

However, after a while, River God, who was amid practice suddenly made a sound.

“Something’s wrong. The River of Blood’s powers is deteriorating rapidly.”

“Eh… How can this be?” Everyone looked at each other, each of them not being able to hide the shock on their faces.

Bodhisattva Spirit King frowned but remained silent while Tianjing Fawang played with his rosary beads.

“Seems like the Heavenly Axiom is fighting back. The scavengers are coming. We have to be prepared…”

“I just don’t know what kind of scavengers it will send. At the Upper Realm, the True Dragon Clan played the role of the scavengers, but now that we’re at such a small arcane realm, which great being would play the role now?” Fa Wang’s expression was full of bitterness.

It was apparent that with his recovered strength, even the strongest one among all may not even be his opponent.

As for Bodhisattva Spirit, even one mere Spiritual Sense was nothing compared to his past abilities.

River God of the Sky River was needless to say, even worse. After all, he had never been good at fighting.

Everyone’s sight naturally concentrated on one person.

“No matter. Different situations call for different actions. I’ll bear all the burden,” Vigilante A said expressionlessly.

“Well then, you have our gratitude,” Fawang said with his palms together.

The crowd finally let out a sigh of relief.

In the System Space.

“It’s finally coming. My guts is telling me that this time around we can hit a monster that’s a hundred billion experience points worth,” the System said excitedly.

Fang Ning was completely speechless. If it was not the fact that the System had never shown his true form, he would have been certain that this fellow was too eager to get into action.

“Keep a low profile, will you? Don’t be so bloodthirsty, you’ve got to always be humble and careful,” he could not help but lecture.

“Stop talking rubbish and cultivate the scriptures. That young lady, Saki, didn’t lose her memory, but you can’t even resist the attacks of this realm. The True Bodhi Tactics is a perfect version that I’ve theorized, it’s impossible that it’s worse than the Great Demon Saint’s Scripture of Great Ordeal, it can only be better. This is all because you’re lazy to cultivate. A young lady who’s only started cultivating for more than a year has already overtaken you. Are you not ashamed?” The System yelled.

“Oh, I can’t help it. If I’m not this lazy, I wouldn’t have been seized by you, so where’s the meaning of your existence?” Fang Ning responded arrogantly.

“This is the first time I’ve heard someone being so proud of himself for being lazy…” The System was indignant.

“Hey, I’m not going to talk nonsense with you anymore. Look, am I not training now?” Fang Ning was not as thick-faced as the System, so he quickly closed his eyes and continued cultivating.

“Everyone, prepare to fight. According to my estimation, the scavengers will come to form in three days. If we base its strength according to this realm’s popular strength standards, it should be at least Inland-Sea Level. It might actually even surpass Ocean-level… With four of our forces combined, we might not even be able to surpass it.”

The crowd was shocked by the news. An Ocean-level powerhouse? What kind of concept was this?

Qiao Anping was already close to Inland-Sea Level so he knew how strong the next stage would be. It was strong enough to move mountains, which was much bigger than the nuclear power that the humans wielded.

Therefore, it was hard for him to imagine how powerful exactly the next stage would be.

Would it be so great it would shatter the Earth, or would it be able to move planets and stars?

Everyone was confused and they each had their own ideas.

Run away? That was impossible. They had already come to this point, there was no point of return anymore.

Furthermore, running away was not an easy task either. Besides these supreme beings, nobody else had the ability to travel through space.

After the River God of the River Sky finished speaking, everyone was silent again.

Right that moment, everyone began to notice that the River of Blood in front of them was gradually changing its color.

The original blood-red was slowly clearing up.

By the looks of it, it was like a bloodthirsty creature recovering to clarity.

“Blood-red, in fact, represents the power contained in the river. Now that the red is diminishing, it means that this force is being taken away,” River God explained.

Sure enough, from where the eyes could see, the entire river from the upper stream to lower stream had lost its reddish tone and was now crystal clear.

The black shadows that were once present in the river were also disappearing quickly…

“Great gods, can we find these scavengers in advance, and destroy it when it’s not formed?” Qiao Zijiang suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

Bodhisattva shook his head, “No, it’s impossible. The Heavenly Axiom will do anything to protect them. Our theorizing skills didn’t take effect so there’s no way we can find it.”

“This arcane realm isn’t exactly big. Let’s search through all places now, how about that?” Qiao Zijiang was still not giving up.

She was clear herself that she was braving the risk of being scorned by the supreme being, but she understood that if the country perished, the people would not be able to enjoy freedom.

An Ocean-level powerhouse’s battle might perhaps affect the entire arcane realm, and the four great beings would not have to worry about protecting themselves.

However, the others were incapable of that. If there was really a fight, they would be blasted into bits by the mere repercussions of the battle.

“It can’t be found. My spies have already been dispersed in this arcane realm for the past ten days and they haven’t found the so-called scavengers. This Heavenly Axiom is indeed somewhat different,” Vigilante A said softly.

Of course, the System was unable to find the real scavengers, and that was because it was someone he would never have imagined to be.

Bodhisattva nodded, “That’s right. I already knew that Brother Dragon has made some arrangements. Since he did not mention the whereabouts of the other party, it shows that the scavengers’ hiding place is definitely well hidden.”

Once everyone heard it, they nodded in agreement.

These were the words of the few strongest people. It seemed that they could only wait for the other party to come to form and make the final battle.

This gave them a TV series-like sense of déjà vu where the protagonists always had to wait for the boss to turn up before they could defeat the boss…
