Chapter 2141 - 2142: Do You Have a Problem with That!
"My lord..." Zhang Yunhu looked ahead excitedly. They had been searching in this universe abyss for several days without any results.
Yet now, the mysterious aura in front stirred everyone’s spirits.
Finally, there was a harvest.
Hongyuan Holy Son could hardly contain his excitement. The mystical aura was something he had heard about from the elders within the sect. He recalled an elder saying that obtaining this aura would notably enhance one’s power.
The aura’s function is incredibly powerful; it can integrate into a pill body, enhancing the pill’s absorption rate of spiritual energy, can be integrated into the physical body to strengthen it, and can also integrate into the soul to enhance it, or even into weapons.
In summary, the aura offers many benefits and is an invaluable treasure.
Moreover, the aura can only be found by traversing the star river road into the universe abyss. It’s not found anywhere else.
Even the elders highly praised this aura, and seeing others venture out to find it, Hongyuan Holy Son naturally couldn’t resist.
Anyone who finds such a substance won’t reveal it, nor exchange it for military contributions, opting to keep it for themselves.
He wanted to obtain some from others but knew it was impossible, which made him head to the universe abyss before sect experts arrived.
Of course, Hongyuan Holy Son was unwilling to take risks before the order enforcers killed a few emperor abyss demons, but the danger was lesser after that. For added safety, he specially found some partners to cooperate.
"Such a vast area of aura, at least spanning several dozen meters," exclaimed another young man.
Other youths also displayed joy, relieved that their efforts weren’t in vain. Even divided, each would receive a substantial amount of aura.
"As agreed, we’ll split this aura equally. Everyone, start collecting."
Everyone exchanged a glance, with no objections, and proceeded to take out small bottles to start absorbing the aura.
Just as they were absorbing the aura, the five tiger generals silently crept behind the other youths.
Hongyuan Holy Son’s expression flashed as the five tiger generals moved simultaneously.
Instantly, one took out a long needle, directly piercing the person in front through the back of the head.
Though the five tiger generals were weakened, their strength remained, and the surprise attack caught everyone off guard.
"You..."
"Damn!"
Bam, bam, bam!
Two were killed instantly, needle through soul, and the remaining four did not immediately die, retaliating against the five tiger generals.
Sending the five tiger generals flying.
"Hongyuan, you’re behind the sneak attack..." The sudden move by the five tiger generals was surely Hongyuan Holy Son’s idea; the surviving four glared angrily at him, astonished by his despicable action.
"You vile scam! We agreed to work and split equally, yet you attack us to seize all the aura."
Hongyuan Holy Son was indifferent to the curses from the four. He spoke flatly: "Indeed, but with so much aura, I believe it’s better if I have it all. With the poison needle, you won’t last long. Considering your contributions along the way, I’ll remember you in next year’s offerings, a token of my kindness."
"Despicable, shameless!"
"Spit! A supposed Saint Heir of Hunyuan Sect commits such deeds; I wish your actions were exposed to all."
The four felt increasingly weak, knowing they fell for Hongyuan Holy Son’s promises, landing in this plight.
No potion for regrets.
Hongyuan Holy Son chuckled: "Victory is for the strong. Don’t you understand? I merely seek greater power. Sharing my aura with you means less strength for me. Blame your frail, naive selves; be wise in your next life."
Hongyuan Holy Son laughed loudly twice.
The five tiger generals were injured severely but survived, now standing behind Hongyuan Holy Son.
The tiger generals carried poison needles, clearly planned for decisive use.
Those four’s complexions shifted from blue to black; deeply poisoned and unable to match Hongyuan Holy Son’s prime condition even together, they couldn’t escape alive.
"No need for you to act; I’ll deal with these four," Hongyuan Holy Son remarked, turning to carry out the strikes.
The four young saints, gravely injured in spirit and body, stood no chance even together.
Two were dispatched easily by Hongyuan Holy Son; the last resorted to self-destruct to drag him down.
Clapping his hands, Hongyuan Holy Son gazed at the aura contentedly: "All mine. Know who I am? You thought I’d sincerely cooperate with fools like you?"
With disdain, Hongyuan Holy Son began collecting the aura.
The pervasive aura rushed into bottles, vanishing within breaths as bottles absorbed them all.
Holding the bottles, Hongyuan Holy Son admired the aura pleased.
"With you, I’ll achieve Supreme Saint level, ascending the first stage. Just as delight filled Hongyuan Holy Son, his hand lightened.
A tight grasp.
Empty!
Hongyuan Holy Son was startled realizing the aura was taken.
His efforts dressed others.
Curse!
Seeing Ye Qiu ahead stunned Hongyuan Holy Son, particularly with Ye Qiu examining the aura-filled bottle.
"Ye Fentian!"
Ye Qiu’s presence surprised Hongyuan Holy Son and the tiger generals, given their irreconcilable enmity with him.
Hongyuan Holy Son once lost to Ye Qiu, disgraced; the generals weakened, all Ye Qiu’s doing.
Now, Ye Qiu took his acquired aura.
Compound of old and new hatred!
"I took your aura. Any objections?" Ye Qiu stored the bottle away into the storage ring, gazing nonchalantly at the furious group.
Supreme Saint aura radiated from Ye Qiu, pressing upon them.
