Chapter 405: Malevolent Aura
Chapter 405: Malevolent Aura
December 4th, 2024
"This mystic realm has the complete Five Elements, and the spatial chamber is so vast. The spiritual essence within must be abundant, and it might even nurture high-grade spirit treasures!"
After sensing the situation within the mystic realm, the youth in white was overjoyed.
He immediately began searching within the mystic realm.
Soon, based on the terrain and the flow of spiritual energy, he determined the direction where the spiritual essence of the mystic realm was most concentrated.
Without hesitation, he unleashed his escape light and flew in that direction.
In his haste, he didn't even bother to pay attention to the ants exploring within the mystic realm.
Such a conspicuous escape light naturally couldn't escape the notice of the powerful cultivators within the mystic realm.
Upon sensing the might of the escape light, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
"What is that?!"
"To be able to fly in the sky, it must be a Foundation Establishment or higher existence!"
"Is that the escape light of those two monsters from the Central Land?"
"Quick, hide!"
"Run!"
...
After seeing the escape light, the powerful cultivators within the mystic realm were shocked, and their reactions varied.
Some, with extensive knowledge and well-informed, immediately associated the escape light with certain news they had heard not long ago.
They were so terrified that they abandoned their exploration of the mystic realm and desperately fled towards the entrance.
However, there were also those who couldn't recognize the origin of the escape light and felt lucky, continuing to search for spiritual treasures.
Some with quick wits even thought they had encountered a senior sage and followed the escape light, hoping to get to know them and see if they could gain some fortune.
The youth in white's escape light was extremely fast, and soon he arrived at the location he had deduced to be the most concentrated area of spiritual essence in the mystic realm.
However, when he landed on the ground and saw the mess before him, his face instantly turned furious.
"Which ant dared to touch my things?!"
Looking at the spiritual essence site, where even stones and soil had been dug up and left in disarray, the youth in white felt waves of anger burning within him.
Based on the remaining spiritual essence, he could confirm that this place had previously gathered a considerable number of Five Element essences, and it might have even nurtured a high-grade spirit elixir!
"Who did this?!"
The enraged youth in white flew into the air and unleashed his powerful divine soul power from his glabella, sweeping it across the four directions.
In an instant, he covered an area of several dozen li.
Within this range, no movement could escape his senses.
Soon, his gaze sharpened, and he sensed several figures hiding in the dense forest.
His body transformed into a stream of light and flew towards them.
After a few breaths, he reached the hiding place of those figures.
In their terrified gazes, he materialized a palm of spiritual power and grabbed them, along with the flowers, grass, and trees, squeezing them all in his palm.
"Ah!"
"Mercy, Senior!"
"We meant no offense, Senior, please forgive us!"
Squeezed by the palm of spiritual power, all of them spat out blood and suffered severe injuries.
Their well-forged Primordial bodies became as fragile as eggshells at this moment, useless.
Terrified, they begged for mercy.
"Shut up, ants!"
The palm of spiritual power slightly tightened, almost suffocating them, rendering them unable to speak further.
The youth in white's gaze turned icy. These ants were so noisy; if not for his intention to question them, he would have squeezed them to death long ago.
"Ants, I ask you, who took the things from the spiritual essence site?"
"Spiritual essence site?"
The few figures were stunned, not quite understanding the youth in white's words.
But the next moment, one of them suddenly exploded, splattering blood all over the others.
"Answer me, ants."
The sudden death of their companion left the others' minds blank.
They never expected that the white-robed man before them would be so malevolent, and with just a moment's hesitation, he immediately took action to kill.
Seeing the stunned expressions on their faces, the white-robed youth's face filled with disgust, and he was about to crush them all.
After all, there were still many ants in this mystic realm, and he could always catch others later after crushing these.
The few, held in the palm of the man's spellcasting, felt an intense sense of impending death rise within them as they saw the white-robed youth's expression.
Under the strong instinct for self-preservation, one of them shouted, "Spare us, Great Lord! I know who took the item you mentioned!"
The white-robed youth paused, looking at him coldly, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Absolutely, Great Lord, the item you spoke of should be the treasure on that mountain fifty li to the east, right?"
The white-robed youth didn't confirm or deny, only responding coldly, "Continue."
But the man knew he had guessed correctly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great Lord, we also went to that mountain, but by the time we arrived, someone had already taken the treasure."
"How dare you play me?" The white-robed youth burst into anger.
"Great Lord, please calm your anger! I didn't mean it that way!" The man hurriedly shouted, "I'm saying, we were among the first group to enter this mystic realm."
But even when we reached that mountain, the treasure had already been taken by someone else.
So, the one who took the treasure could only be that person!"
"Who is it?" The white-robed youth asked patiently.
"It's a mysterious person with a masked phantom, riding a golden flying boat!"
When we first entered the mystic realm, we saw him flying towards the entrance on his golden boat.
And at that time, he had just come from the mountain you mentioned.
So, the treasure on that mountain must have been taken by him!"
"In other words, you don't know his identity or background either?"
"We dare not deceive you, Great Lord. We truly don't know his exact identity or background.
We only know that he has a grudge against the Floating Mountain Mystic Land and recently killed many of their disciples in the Western Province.
He even single-handedly suppressed the entire Floating Mountain, forcing them to retreat into the mystic land and not dare to come out."
"Since that's the case, what's the point of keeping you alive?" The white-robed youth asked coldly.
In the terrified gazes of the few, the spellcasting palm suddenly clenched.
After casually crushing the ants, the white-robed youth's face didn't improve; instead, it became even gloomier.
His mind had been focused on those few, so he knew they weren't lying.
But precisely because of this, he became even angrier.
According to what the ants had said, the little thief who took the treasure had already left the mystic realm, and by now, he had probably escaped far away.
In this vast world, where would he go to find that little thief?
As he thought of this, the white-robed youth's anger grew stronger.
The treasure site had such a dense concentration of residual spiritual energy, so one could imagine how extraordinary the treasures it nurtured would be.
Yet, it had been taken by an ant of unknown origin, which made his killing intent surge.
The few ants he had killed earlier not only failed to vent his anger but intensified it.
"That's not right!"
Just as the white-robed youth was considering whether to go on a killing spree, suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and he calmed down.
"According to what that ant said, they were among the first to enter the mystic realm, but they were still behind that little thief.
This means that the little thief entered the mystic realm earlier than them, and it's very likely that he was the first to enter the mystic realm!
To have entered the mystic realm so early means that he must have sensed it as soon as it appeared.
In other words, he was most likely hiding near the mystic realm!"
The more the white-robed youth thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.
