"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
Although they understood that Yantian Sect wanted to compete with them, the eight-star Martial Emperor peak cultivator was very helpless. Their strength was similar to that of Yantian Sect, and it was impossible for a sect-level war to break out. That would only result in mutual losses, and it was not what Ningyun Palace wanted to see.
"If the Yantian Sect wants to come, they can come. Anyway, the news has leaked out. What we are competing for is who is faster, not who masters the star map!" said the eight-star Martial Emperor peak cultivator with a cold smile.
After saying this, the eight-star Martial Emperor peak cultivator immediately made arrangements, and the group began to disperse and search the surrounding void.
Yang Qi, who was searching for traces of the treasure in the nearby void, didn't know that Yantian Sect and both had sent warriors over, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much. After all, the strongest cultivator sent by the two major cultivation forces was only at the peak level of the eight-star martial emperor, not enough to threaten his life.
“Still haven’t found it yet!”
In the void, Yang Qi sighed. He had been in this area for some time, but he had not found any trace of the treasure.
Yang Qi looked at the void in front of him and muttered to himself, "According to the star map, I have searched almost a quarter of the location. I hope I can get something soon."
Although he didn't know that the two major cultivation forces of Yantian Sect had already sent practitioners here, Yang Qi could guess that these two cultivation forces would never give up this relic and would send practitioners here sooner or later.
It is precisely because of this that Yang Qi is seizing the time to look for traces of the treasure.
Um
Just when Yang Qi was about to start searching again, news came from the shadow clone that a discovery had been made in the area where the shadow clone was searching.
Whoosh~
Yang Qi's figure flashed, and he immediately rushed towards the location of the shadow clone. Just a moment later, Yang Qi arrived at the location of the shadow clone.
Buzz~
Yang Qi's mind moved, and he completely released his perception. He soon discovered that the space and time around him was somewhat different from the space and time in other voids. The space and time here was obviously more chaotic.
"There!"
Almost instantly, Yang Qi determined the source of the chaos in time and space. He moved his hand, and the time and space in that area immediately began to vibrate.
Boom!
As Yang Qi made a move to shake the space and time in that area, in an instant, a powerful force rose into the sky, and a huge cave appeared vaguely in the void.
“It’s right here!”
Looking at the cave that was looming in the void, Yang Qi's eyes lit up. Although the cave had not really appeared, judging from the power emanating from the cave, it was clearly a cave left behind by a peak Martial Emperor.
Combined with the records on the star map, it is obvious that this cave is where the peak Martial Emperor left his treasure.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi immediately activated the energy in his body, trying to break the time and space restrictions on the cave and let the cave truly come out. However, at this moment, he felt several powerful auras flying towards him.
Sensing the powerful auras approaching quickly, Yang Qi's eyes fixed and he murmured, "Is it the power emanating from the cave abode that attracted the cultivators here?"
"wrong!"
However, as soon as this thought arose, it was rejected by Yang Qi. The reason was very simple. Even if the cultivators were attracted by the power emanating from the cave before, it was impossible for them to come here together.
Moreover, these practitioners are all quite powerful. The weakest ones are all at the mid-level Martial Emperor. This group of practitioners appeared here, most likely just like him, coming for the relic and the cave in front of them.
“I didn’t expect it to come so soon!”
Thinking of this, Yang Qi's expression froze. The other party might have already discovered the death of the late eight-star Martial Emperor practitioner. If they sent practitioners over again, there must be practitioners above the late eight-star Martial Emperor.
As if to confirm Yang Qi's guess, the next moment, several powerful auras appeared in Yang Qi's perception range. One of the powerful auras had reached the peak level of the eight-star Martial Emperor!
“It is indeed so!”
Upon noticing the appearance of the eight-star martial emperor peak cultivator, Yang Qi's eyes could not help but focus, and he was completely certain that these cultivators, like him, were here for the relic. He just didn't know whether the person coming was a cultivator from the Yantian Sect or a cultivator from another cultivation force.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Just as Yang Qi was thinking, several figures flew over from the distant void and appeared in Yang Qi's sight in the blink of an eye. Leading the way was a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes. His cultivation level had reached the peak level of an eight-star Martial Emperor!
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
The moment this group of practitioners arrived, the figures immediately dispersed and surrounded Yang Qi. The leading eight-star martial arts peak practitioner looked at Yang Qi and asked, "Where are your companions?"
Companions, upon hearing this, Yang Qi was slightly startled, but then he understood the reason.
The group of practitioners in front of him were obviously practitioners from the sect behind the eight-star late-stage Martial Emperor practitioner who was killed by him before, rather than practitioners from the Yantian Sect. After all, only the practitioners from this sect knew that Yang Qi had the strength to kill an eight-star late-stage Martial Emperor practitioner.
As for the Yantian Sect, because Yang Qi directly shocked the other party at the beginning and forced the practitioners of Yantian Sect to leave, I am afraid that until now, the practitioners of Yantian Sect still think that Yang Qi is just a practitioner in the early stage of Eight-Star Martial Emperor.
Yang Qi looked at the eight-star martial emperor peak cultivator and said calmly, "There is no one else, only this emperor."
Um
Hearing Yang Qi's words, the cultivator at the peak of the Eight-Star Martial Emperor level was stunned, but obviously did not believe Yang Qi's words. Instead, he carefully sensed the situation around him, but did not detect the breath of other strong men.
“No matter if there are other practitioners behind you or not, any practitioner who kills my Blood River Sect must die today!” The eight-star Martial Emperor peak practitioner shouted coldly, and then his body moved, and the whole person turned into a stream of light and killed towards Yang Qi.
Whoosh~
As the figure of the eight-star Martial Emperor peak cultivator flew out, the sword that had been accumulated for a long time tore through the void directly and slashed towards Yang Qi with extremely powerful force.
"Stop it for me!"
Facing the incoming attack, Yang Qi did not retreat but advanced instead, waving the Black Phoenix Sword in his hand to meet the incoming blade light.
Seeing that Yang Qi, a mere cultivator at the early stage of the Eight-Star Martial Emperor, was actually planning to take on the attack of a cultivator at the peak of the Eight-Star Martial Emperor, a look of disdain flashed across the cultivator's face, and he sneered, "You are overestimating your own abilities!"
