Chapter 319 - 26 Death Crisis

“One of my teams has been completely wiped out; not a single one managed to escape,” said one of the nine Frost Soul Watchers with a terrifying aura. “The strength of these cultivators is relatively strong this time.”

“The homeland has been attacked, and I have already reported it. I believe that leaders are already tracking them down.”

There is an enormous quantity of Low Level Primordial Life. If it is just the outermost perimeter being attacked, they won’t care too much because the outer range is too vast, and hunting down those cultivators would be too difficult.

But an attack on the homeland, the Low Level Primordial Life groups would quickly dispatch forces from all directions to hunt them down.

“These cultivators, with their small numbers and weak strength. If it weren’t for city sanctuaries protecting them, we would have devoured them all by now.”

“They can hide within their cities, occasionally coming out to launch sneak attacks.” These Frost Soul Watchers were quite discontent.

In terms of overall strength, Low Level Primordial Life are much stronger than cultivators.

But one side has the protection of cities, where they can safely cultivate and draw sustenance from them to their heart’s content.

“It will be comfortable once we breach another city. Then we can devour those cultivators to our heart’s content.”

“Yes, I heard that after the last attack on ‘Beiyang City,’ our kin in the vicinity of Beiyang City had a feast on the cultivators that are rarely seen. There were several hundred million of them in the city.”

“It’s a pity that breaching a city is too difficult.”

The Nine Rivers Sacred Realm’s thirty-five cities require ‘Merit’ to apply for construction, and the cities are exchanged for the tremendous city Secret Treasures using Merit, along with joint control by Hall Masters and Elders, making them extremely secure.

Even with their powerful strength, the Low Level Primordial Life find it difficult to breach cities head-on.

Only with internal and external collusion is there hope of breaching a city.

Every breach of a city is a horrifying catastrophe for the city.

Senior Yuan and the others established the ‘Nine Rivers Sacred Realm’ as a place to temper the younger generation. They already made arrangements favoring cultivators. If even under these circumstances the cities of cultivators are breached, it would only mean the cultivators themselves are too incompetent.

“Huff.”

The nine Frost Soul Watchers were casually chatting and at the same time flying at super high speed atop clouds, patrolling in all directions.

…

“Primordial Wild Hoof Leader, a ‘Late Stage Divine Emperor Blood Demon Elysi’ and fifteen ‘Middle Stage Divine Emperor Frost Soul Watchers’ have been killed in your territory. It is suspected that an Elder has entered the homeland to start hunting,” a message was conveyed.

“Understood.”

A terrifying thunder burst forth from the vast river, bathed in thunder and began to patrol its territory immediately.

The Elder Hunting Area is very close to the Nine Rivers.

“Coming to hunt in my territory.” The terrifying figure within the thunder traversed the Void at incredible speed.

The vast territory surrounding Yulan City is home to Low Level Primordial Life of many species, among which the ‘Primordial Wild Hoof’ clan is a species with fewer numbers but generally strong individuals.

Within the territory surrounding Yulan City, there is only one of the Primordial Wild Hoof clan who has achieved Divine Emperor Perfection, who naturally is also the clan leader.

‘Divine Emperor Perfection Level’ Low Level Primordial Life are still very rare.

For a species as numerous as the Frost Soul Watchers, in the vicinity of Yulan City, there may be several at the Divine Emperor Perfection Level.

But for the vast majority of species, there may be only one at the Divine Emperor Perfection Level, or perhaps none at all.

The so-called ‘Elder Hunting Area’ within the homeland of Low Level Primordial Life is divided into territories overseen by leaders. This is the greatest danger of Elder hunting.

After all, these Low Level Primordial Life also possess high intelligence. They would not foolishly allow themselves to be hunted.

To kill one in the homeland would trigger a pursuit.

Inside the black Flying Boat.

“We’ve killed fifteen Middle Stage Divine Emperor Frost Soul Watchers; none of them escaped,” Emperor Qing said excitedly, “By value, this team of Frost Soul Watchers is slightly more valuable than the previous Blood Demon Elysi.”

Luo Feng nodded.

A Late Stage Divine Emperor Blood Demon Elysi has an extremely high poison value, so its corpse can sell for around 150 million Primordial Crystals, considering its Merit Points worth about 10 million Merit Points. So the total price is about 160 million Primordial Crystals.

The fifteen Frost Soul Watchers, including Merit, should be able to sell for around 190 million Primordial Crystals.

“We can almost return now,” said Luo Feng, “My original plan was to return after hunting two Late Stage Divine Emperor prey. Now we’re about there.”

“We should be more cautious,” Emperor Qing agreed, “The Elder Hunting Area is the homeland of the Low Level Primordial Life activity range. There are too many powerful beings.”

They encountered prey twice.

Once was a Late Stage Divine Emperor Blood Demon Elysi, and the other time was a team of Frost Soul Watchers. This indicates that in the homeland region, the number of Low Level Primordial Life and their strength are vast.

“Huff.”

After deciding, Emperor Qing immediately drove the black Flying Boat, carefully starting the return journey towards Yulan City.

Luo Feng observed the surrounding area.

“My strength is still a little too dangerous in the Elder Hunting Area,” thought Luo Feng to himself.

The Elders occasionally dare to come, partly because they are Avatars, and also do not bring ‘Undying Heart’ ‘Palm World’ and such extremely precious treasures. So even if an Avatar perishes, it wouldn’t be a big loss.

Luo Feng, carrying two treasures, was naturally more careful.

“When my strength advances further, it will be suitable to frequently come to hunt in the homeland,” contemplated Luo Feng.

If his Life and Death Dao advances further, reaching the Middle Stage of Divine Emperor!

As the Dao of Fusion, the ‘Middle Stage Life and Death Dao of Divine Emperor’ should be comparable to the Perfect Level of a common Dao! At that time, his strength should be considered at the level of a Hall Master. As long as he didn’t venture into the inner parts of the Nine Rivers, his safety would be relatively high.

“However, it has been nine hundred epochs since I arrived in Yulan City, and my Life and Death Dao has only just reached the Early Stage of Divine Emperor. To reach the Middle Stage of Divine Emperor, I will face even greater obstacles, and it’s expected to take a considerable amount of time,” Luo Feng pondered.

His current cultivation was going smoothly, without encountering any bottlenecks.

Some cultivators were stuck at bottlenecks, unable to make any further progress—that was real suffering.

“I should do as Senior Yuan and the others said, it’s best not to look at other cultivators’ inheritances and rely solely on my own exploration, making each step solid enough,” Luo Feng thought, having not purchased any ‘Half Primordial Inheritance’ thus far.

Like a blank slate, looking at other cultivators’ inheritances would only contaminate my path.

Reliance on self-exploration! My every gain stems from a clear understanding of the essence, making it solid.

“Luo Feng is really too strong.”

As Luo Feng pondered his cultivation, Emperor Qing, who was next to him, was still shocked by the gains from this venture, “To have such a harvest just from visiting the Elder Hunting Area, he must be considered one of the stronger elders by now.”

“At this rate, won’t it be a short time until he reaches the level of the three Hall Masters?” Emperor Qing thought, “Perhaps the entire structure of Yulan City will change because of Brother Luo Feng.”

“No… with Brother Luo Feng’s talent, he might not even regard Yulan City highly.”

Emperor Qing’s emotions were complex.

In his eyes, the three high and mighty Hall Masters of Yulan City may not hold much importance to Brother Luo Feng.

Hu!

Each lost in their own thoughts, the black Flying Boat sped through the sky at an incredibly high speed.

Suddenly—

In the distance, a terrifying bolt of lightning appeared, looking towards them from afar.

“Hm?” Luo Feng and Emperor Qing both were startled and dared not be distracted by other thoughts.

“It is, it is, it is…” Emperor Qing couldn’t believe what he was seeing—a fearsome bolt of lightning in the distance. The sheer terror of its presence, even from a great distance, gave Emperor Qing a chill. It was an aura far surpassing that of Blood Demon Elysi.

Luo Feng also stared into the distance.

Instinctively, a strong sense of threat warned Luo Feng, making his soul tremble.

“Primordial Wild Hoof Clan… an existence at Divine Emperor Perfection level,” Luo Feng’s soul shuddered at the terrible aura without a doubt of it being at Divine Emperor Perfection level, “It must be the leader of the Primordial Wild Hoof Clan.”

As a rare species in the vicinity of Yulan City, there should be only one at the level of Divine Emperor Perfection, naturally, it would be the leader.

The Primordial Wild Hoof, at first glance is entirely black, but upon closer inspection, it faintly radiates a deep blue hue. Its huge body is covered with layers of Scale Armor, and on both sides of its head are sharply curved horns.

Its eyes, full of lightning, looked at Luo Feng and Emperor Qing, causing a tremor in their hearts.

“Brother Luo Feng,” Emperor Qing knew something bad was happening.

“You go hide first, I’ll have to find a way to escape,” Luo Feng quickly stowed Emperor Qing away, as well as the black Flying Boat.

Luo Feng had no thoughts of defeating the opponent.

His intention was to escape!

“Divine Emperor Perfection level, and it’s a member of the Primordial Wild Hoof Clan!” Luo Feng knew this was the gravest threat he had faced since he arrived in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm.

There are many races among the Low-Level Primordial Life, each with different talents. Frost Soul Watchers were jack-of-all-trades but master of none. Blood Demon Elysi specialized in stealth and poison, but its capability in direct combat was average.

Primordial Wild Hoof was different!

Its racial talent was incredibly powerful! Among beings of the same level, it was considered an extremely strong existence.

In terms of physical body, among the same level Low-Level Primordial Lives, it was undoubtedly one of the most terrifying.

The three Hall Masters had once killed Divine Emperor Perfection level Low-Level Primordial Lives one-on-one. But on one hand, all three Hall Masters possessed sufficiently powerful treasures, and on the other hand, they had a countered their opponents.

If they encountered a ‘Divine Emperor Perfection level Primordial Wild Hoof’, even the three Hall Masters would probably be helpless.

“You dare to hunt in my territory.” A deep voice echoed across the vast expanse of the Void, as the Primordial Wild Hoof Leader coldly watched Luo Feng, “You are a newly promoted elder of Yulan City? Your avatar will not be making an escape.”

The words had hardly fallen.

Boom!!!

The surrounding vast Void suddenly solidified into terrifying green lightning, which struck directly at Luo Feng.

The lightning came too fast, leaving Luo Feng no chance to dodge.

“Bang!!!”

The lightning struck Luo Feng directly.

In Luo Feng’s body, the presence of the ‘Undying Heart’ greatly enhanced the resilience and defensive capabilities of the Undying Blood Sea Body, giving it an undying quality. Now, having taken this hit from the fearsome lightning, Luo Feng was somewhat dazed, but his body managed to withstand it.

“The Undying Heart truly lives up to its name—so resilient,” Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief, being able to withstand the lightning strike meant there was still a possibility to escape.

“Huh?”

The distant Primordial Wild Hoof Leader was slightly surprised, and then it made its move.

Boom!

With its movement!

Bathed in lightning, its terrifying figure spanned heaven and earth in an instant, ripping through the sky! Its mere aftershock caused billions of miles of the surrounding space to begin fracturing layer by layer, allowing a glimpse of the outermost, blurry shadows of the Secret Patterns.

Under a twisted and torn sky, Luo Feng tried his best to dodge, but the terrifying figure had already reached him!
