CHAPTER 333: HUNTING CHI FAMILY

" El-Elder is dead!"

" Hurry up and escape! Elder is dead!"

Long Ming appeared from the shadows, a bow covered with dreamy lightning arcs clutched in his hand.

" Haah, when a giant tree falls, the animals under it scatter." Long Ming spoke with a smile. The moment the leading elder of the Ghost Moon Sect died, all the morale of the disciples crumbled in an instant.

" If you are free enough to recite shitty poetry, why not kill the the escaping bastards?" Mu Qinglian descended from the sky as she looked at Long Ming.

" Ah, these small fries aren’t worthy of my attention." Long Ming smirked. " I am waiting to catch the biggest escaping fish."

Suddenly, a light appeared from the south side of the forest as eight swords flew in a circle, as if they trapped something in the middle.

Long Ming’s body blinked as he appeared right there.

" Well, quite an escape plan you had. Unfortunately, I am just too cautious against demonic cultivators."

" You bastard! Let me go!"

Mist scattered as a hazy face of a human appeared before Long Ming. It was none other than the figure of the elder of the Ghost Moon Sect!

" Hmm, I was actually waiting for you to slip up. One of the reasons why Harmonization Realm cultivator differs from Primordial Spirit Unification Realm is that they can project their souls outside." Wu Liang appeared beside Long Ming.

" Not to mention, the demonic cultivator bastards always have one or two escape methods." She clicked her tongue as she looked at Long Ming.

" But to think you already guessed it in advance and even laid a trap to capture any escaping souls."

Long Ming shrugged as he collected the River Sealing Eight Sword, " Well, I am just that kind of genius."

The elder felt like dying when he heard the exchange between Wu Liang and Long Ming.

’ Damn it! I thought at least I could escape with my soul. This bastard...How did he even guess?!"

" So, What are you going to do with him?" Wu Liang looked at Long Ming. Long Ming smirked, " I will extract some information from his first."

" Hahaha! Bastard, you think I will spill anything?" An eerie laughter escaped from the soul. " Hmph! I would rather perish than answer you."

" Ah, but you can’t do shit without my permission though?" Long Ming snorted. " Give me a minute, Grand Elder. I will be swift."

" Alright, look around and collect everyone’s spatial rings. After all, it will be a waste to leave them here, right?" Ming Yuexin wiped blood from her sword as she commanded.

" Hehe, even if we can’t use demonic treasures, we can certainly sell them, right?"

" Wow, such a haul! I really love such a windfall."

Mu Qinglian’s expression was strange when she saw the disciples of the Four Seasons Valley scavenging through the corpse eagerly.

’ Aren’t they showing a bit too much enthusiasm?’

" Take it all, girls. After all, it’s only right to take it after they ambushed us." Meng Zhi clapped as she instructed them.

" But be quick, we need to enter the Inner Zone today."

Not long after, Long Ming returned to Wu Liang with information from the elders.

" There is another group of Ghost Moon Sect inside. They have a Nine Transformation of Soul Realm expert with suppressed cultivation." Long Ming informed.

" Also, I think they are connected to each other with talismans. Since we killed this group, the other group should know it."

" But, I don’t think they can guess who killed them. So, we are free from trouble for now."

Wu Liang nodded. " Very well, since that’s the case, we should move forward then."

After collecting all, they all moved towards the inner Zone.

" Long Ming, are you sure the treasury of ancestors is here?" Mu Qinglian asked in a curious voice.

" Indeed, I am sure. However, I guess finding it would be a bit tricky. After all, it was personally constructed under the observation of Four Seasons Heavenly Emperor." Long Ming recalled the records as he spoke.

" It’s truly fascinating. So many people have chosen the Great Sky Ruin as the place to hide their treasures."

" Because it’s a restricted place guarded by powers beyond even a Grand Heaven Ascension cultivator." Wu Liang replied. " Only a Heavenly Emperor could truly tread safely in any forbidden zones."

As they were moving, Long Ming suddenly paused as he felt some interference from the Forest Token he had.

" Informing all members of Chi Family, our plan is ready for action. Act according to it."

" Also, keep an eye on targeted individuals. Start from tracking the whereabouts of Four Seasons Valley disciples."

Long Ming’s eyes turned cold when he heard that. " Well well, looks like someone’s brewing some trouble, hm?"

Other than the direct bloodline power, copying the function of a regular Forest Token wasn’t that hard for Long Ming. And now, he was practically an insider within their communication system.

" ZZT! Everyone come to the west valley. We have located the ten thousand year old Golden Cloud Yuan Fruit Tree."

" However, it’s guarded by two peak Harmonization Realm Ruin Beasts."

" Sending two units. Remain standby!"

Ruin Beasts are the strange creatures born inside the Great Sky Ruins. Despite their powers, they don’t develop more than basic instincts of a beast.

However, the ruin beasts are blessed by the Great Sky Ruin’s invisible force. Even a peak stage Harmonization Realm ruin beast can contend against the Nine Transformation of Soul Realm cultivator within the land.

And right now, since the restriction only allows powerhouses till the Harmonization Realm, hunting such a beast would take careful planning and resources.

’ Not to mention, Ruin Beasts also drop special materials, which can be used in many cases. Such materials will only available once in a while. Should I not use it?’ Long Ming thought inwardly.

Turning around, he looked at the disciples of Four Seasons Valley.

" Girls! Attention please." Long Ming clapped his hands. " Did you all enjoy looting treasures from the Ghost Moon Sect?"

" Yes! We loved it, senior brother!"

" Yeah! We got so many treasures!"

Long Ming looked at them with a bright smile.

" Would you like even more?"

The disciples looked at each other for a moment before their smiles widened. Mu Qinglian shuddered when she saw the flash of greed in everyone’s eyes.

’ All of them...are addicted.’

" There are truly ten fruits! Ten Golden Cloud Yuan Fruits!"

" Each fruit could be refined into three pills. And even if alchemy fails, we can get at least one pill per fruit! That’s ten pills!"

" Thank you for coming with us, Elder Sheng." Chi Yunsha looked at the middle aged man and the disciples behind him."

" It’s alright, Young Master Chi. As per our deal, we shall take 30% of it." Elder Sheng replied. " As long as you can guide us into the Yin Lamp City and Heavenly Fountain Palace, we will help you in everything."

The Great Sky Ruin has three major places, each with their own speciality. It would be only best for cultivators not to be stuck in a single place and explore new places.

" Haha, very well! Then let us prepare to slay those two beasts and take all the fruits." Chi Yunsha laughed.

" After all, with Sky Martial Tower, we should be able to take them down easily, right?"
