Chapter 1139: Chapter 759: Clash of Geniuses
"So powerful." Xiang Beifei gazed from afar at the litian spear.
Earlier, when the middle-aged man stood atop the litian spear, his aura was incredibly strong, yet no one around him could see his silhouette, as if he was completely overlooked, without noticing any oddities about the litian spear.
But Xiang Beifei did see it.
[Dao Practitioner: Wu Yanwei]
[Dao Embryo: Houtu Dao]
[Realm: Ancestral Dao]
Master of the Ancestral Dao Realm, terrifying!
The aura just exuded was tremendously formidable, centered on him and enveloping everything within tens of thousands of miles, any slight disturbance could be detected by him!
Though Wu Yanwei hadn’t pinpointed Xiang Beifei’s location, Xiang Beifei understood clearly, if faced alone, even with the strongest invisibility abilities, any movement would be noticed!
Xiang Beifei found it challenging to completely evade this degree of Divine Sense search.
"Seems quite difficult to deal with." Xiang Beifei remarked.
"Luckily, he’s gone."
Li Qianluo also clearly saw Wu Yanwei standing atop the litian spear.
"By the way, should we sneak in and take a look now?" Xiaohei asked.
"I’m not sure if the blood soil formation can detect me yet." Xiang Beifei replied.
The Dao Palace captured members of the Human Race, crafting blood soil, specifically identifying humans.
Xiang Beifei was part of the Human Race and would likely be targeted.
If the formation’s aura could be identified by Xiang Beifei, he might find a way to disguise using Yin and Yang energy, but without identifying the blood soil formation’s aura, he’s unsure how to disguise.
"You could disguise yourself as a master of another race! Transforming into another race should prevent the blood soil formation from marking you." Xiaohei suggested.
"Hard to say, mainly unsure if it could be concealed from that spear." Xiang Beifei said.
After understanding what an Ancestral Artifact signifies, he must consider the variables within, even though he owns an Ancestral Artifact, the one he controls differs from the one the Dao Palace controls.
His Ancestral Artifact is incomplete, and he’s not an Ancestral Dao Realm master, unable to fully wield the Ancestral Artifact’s power, but the opponent’s Ancestral Artifact is genuine.
Xiang Beifei even speculated that being unable to perceive the blood soil is strongly connected to that spear.
"The Dao Palace’s Ancestral Artifact is called the litian spear, let’s not court trouble with it, I feel like I’d be discovered if I entered the city." Li Qianluo mused, stroking his chin.
"If you’re both worried, how about I go in and take a look?" Xiaohei proposed.
"You’re just a kid, not capable of fighting, going in is too dangerous." Li Qianluo patted Xiaohei’s head.
"I can’t fight, but I can run, they can’t see me." Xiaohei’s invisibility ability is formidable.
"No way, last time you were trapped in the Rushou relics." Xiang Beifei didn’t allow Xiaohei to go alone.
"Last time was a special case, Erha was playful, and I went to save him." Xiaohei muttered.
"But last time you had the brick, this time you can’t bring the brick, increasing the risk." Xiang Beifei replied.
Xiaohei usually brings the brick when going out, relying on his invisibility advantage, sneaking behind others, and striking them with the brick!
But the brick is also an Ancestral Artifact, therefore it can’t be brought into Sheyin City, or it might be detected by the litian spear.
"We can’t just stand here doing nothing, right?" Xiaohei asked.
Xiang Beifei contemplated for a moment, saying, "Don’t rush, we’ve planted an undercover agent, we spared someone’s life last time."
Xiaohei’s eyes lit up, saying, "That’s right! Let’s find him!"
——
Near Sheyin City, people were everywhere, gathering masters, potentially leading to conflict. After all, everyone was here, enemies always cross paths.
At the moment, five thousand miles behind Sheyin City, two groups were clashing, surrounded by onlookers.
The Beast Dao Race was having a conflict with the Demon Dao Race, both sides seemed to have disagreements over something, swords were drawn, a fierce aura emanating from them.
Many spectators watched from afar at the two races, whispering and adding to the excitement.
"What’s wrong with these two races?"
"Apparently, it’s because last time, while contending over a deserted island, the Demon Dao Race killed a Beast Dao Race genius, and that Beast Dao Race was none other than Shou Youxi, ranked seventy-ninth on the Earth Ranking, enraging the Beast Dao Race."
"Heaven and Earth Ranking genius contention, mutual competition, life and death determined by fate, isn’t it normal?"
"Not quite! It happened just when Mo Qiuze from the Demon Dao Race assassinated Shou Youxi!"
"Mo Qiuze? Mo Qiuze ranked fifty-ninth on the Heavenly Ranking?"
"Yes, exactly him! Back then, Shou Youxi was unaware of Mo Qiuze’s presence, and was killed as soon as he took action. If it were mutual killing among the Earth Ranking, it would be nothing, but the Heavenly Ranking killed the Earth Ranking, clearly bullying the small with the big, how could the Beast Dao Race swallow this?"
"But there’s no rule that Heavenly Ranking can’t kill Earth Ranking individuals! Earth Ranking geniuses are powerful, but why provoke them?"
"There’s no such rule, but the Beast Dao Race also has another Heavenly Ranking expert, Shou Qiaoba ranked fifty-first, who happens to be Shou Youxi’s brother, so he’s here to cause trouble."
...
The surrounding people were deep in discussion over the matter, everyone was here for the excitement, naturally, there were know-it-alls who quickly figured out the cause of the conflict and exchanged information.
The Beast Dao Race had a total of eleven people, among whom Shou Qiaoba was the most famous, because he entered the immortality phase at forty-two and reached Inquiring Dao at a thousand years old, claiming a position as a top talent in the Heavenly Ranking.
