Chapter 2122 - 2123: Taiyi! First Update
The Taichi Saint Heir returns, the acknowledged top master among the young kings in Xinghe Ancient City. Is he going to make a move?
Everyone began to anticipate, knowing that Ye Qiu’s strength is not weak either, able to slay opponents of the same realm. Such strength fighting against the Taichi Saint Heir will surely be very exciting.
Where is Ye Qiu?
The Taichi Saint Heir made a few inquiries and knew immediately, quickly leaving the ancient city to settle the score with Ye Qiu.
Not wanting to delay even a moment, seeing the Taichi Saint Heir eager to resolve things with Ye Qiu, many people immediately followed him.
Just as Ye Qiu was not in the ancient city, it was convenient for the Taichi Saint Heir to act without worrying about the rules within the ancient city.
For the martial artists gathered in the ancient city, as long as no killing happens within the city, the enforcers won’t intervene.
The news of the Taichi Saint Heir going to settle scores with Ye Qiu spread quickly within the ancient city, one telling ten, ten telling a hundred, and once anyone heard the news, they immediately left the ancient city.
"Whoa, they’re going to cause trouble again."
"Taichi Saint Heir and Ye Fentian, didn’t expect they’re finally going to face off."
"Who will have the upper hand—the Taichi Saint Heir or Ye Fentian? This battle definitely can’t be missed."
Almost no one inside the ancient city felt indifferent about it; all went to chase the Taichi Saint Heir’s footsteps, forming a large crowd.
Ye Qiu and his group had no idea the Taichi Saint Heir was searching for them everywhere. At this moment, the four were at the location of the cosmic abyss, over ten thousand miles from Xinghe Ancient City.
With crashing sounds echoing, another abyssal demon king was slain by Ye Qiu.
Only to see the slain abyssal king demon turn into a pool of blood, leaving only a core behind which Jin Shanshun promptly picked up, while elsewhere Qin Feng continued to gather cores as Turquoise Pool struck down ordinary abyssal demons. Her sword flashes now had exceptionally more power, each strike taking away five to six abyssal demons, and Qin Feng was responsible for retrieving the cores in Turquoise Pool’s area.
Their four-person combat division was orderly, and the sheer number of abyssal demons they were slaughtering was countless. Anyway, Jin Shanshun and Qin Feng’s backs were sore from picking up the cores.
This time, returning to the ancient city, the military merit points they exchanged will definitely be a significant number.
Once there were no living abyssal demons around, the four all stopped, with Jin Shanshun and Qin Feng leaning on each other, continuously rubbing their aching backs, exhausted.
Turquoise Pool sat on a rock, maintaining a goddess-like stance even after attacking for several hours straight.
But from the beads of sweat dripping from her face, it was evident that she was quite spent.
Ye Qiu, possessing the strongest strength, had just resolved four abyssal king demons one after another alone, still looking battle-ready, with little exhaustion.
While fighting the abyssal king demons, Ye Qiu didn’t simply strike; his attacks were thoughtful, and each blow was reasoned. In essence, Ye Qiu was using the abyssal king demons to refine himself and enhance his martial prowess.
Moreover, his strength had reached the Supreme Saint level, able to achieve the greatest effect with the least energy.
Besides, he was absorbing the surrounding sparse spiritual energy while fighting, and after a few hours, he only consumed two to three layers of energy, far less than Turquoise Pool’s consumption, which was as high as half her strength.
Ye Qiu and his companions entered a state of recovery, while Jin Shanshun and Qin Feng vigilantly guarded the surroundings to prevent any sudden appearance of abyssal demons.
Half an hour passed, and the two were still recovering. Due to the proximity to the cosmic abyss, the spiritual energy here was very scarce, not only absorbing spiritual energy but also wary of inhaling some special gases into the body, which were not beneficial.
Consequently, recovery was even slower.
Turquoise Pool and Ye Qiu opened their eyes in succession, deciding not to recover here, as it could be a waste of time. It’s far quicker to return to the ancient city for recovery, and they’ve been out for quite a while now, so it was time to head back.
This trip’s harvest was quite considerable.
Whether it was ordinary abyssal demon cores or king demon cores, there were plenty; there should be over a million military merit points.
Just as the four were about to rise to return, a strong spiritual power swept over.
Swoosh.
This spiritual power swept past them without reservation, pausing briefly once it reached them.
Ye Qiu and Turquoise Pool both paused, sensing the exceptionally strong spiritual power!
Following that, they felt an aura rapidly approaching.
"It’s martial artists, not abyssal demons," Turquoise Pool stated.
Ye Qiu had also sensed it, particularly with his Supreme Saint-level strength, realizing the opponent’s aura seemed no weaker than his own.
Swoosh.
A figure appeared; he carried a pale-faced man and threw him onto the ground, glancing at Ye Qiu and asking, "Is he Ye Fentian?"
The man looked toward Ye Qiu’s group, nodding frantically: "It’s him, it’s him, sir, you’ve found him; you can let me go now."
"So, you’re that Ye Fentian!"
The newcomer was naturally the Taichi Saint Heir, dressed entirely in white, spotlessly clean. Both his demeanor and appearance were remarkably outstanding; he was the type of person who, standing in a crowd, would be exceptionally conspicuous.
This was a born leader, making people feel his extraordinary presence just at a glance.
Looking for me?
Ye Fentian fixed his gaze on him; though the Taichi Saint Heir didn’t emit a particularly terrifying aura, he was unable to relax.
A figure like this was his first encounter.
"You should have guessed who I am by now, right?" the Taichi Saint Heir said.
"Taichi!"
The identity of the Taichi Saint Heir wasn’t hard to guess; within the ancient city, among the young kings who reached the Supreme Saint level, he hadn’t seen the Taichi Saint Heir, but he had seen the others.
Being someone he couldn’t discern, and whose appearance was unfamiliar, besides the Taichi Saint Heir, there was no other possibility.
Moreover, now that the Taichi Saint Heir appeared directly to target him, there could be nobody else.
"Since you know I came for you, you should be prepared for death. Now suffer for it," the Taichi Saint Heir said straightforwardly; Ye Qiu killed Fentian, and he was here to kill Ye Qiu—it’s as simple as that.
The Taichi Saint Heir’s direct approach was more in line with Ye Qiu’s expectations; he thought the Taichi Saint Heir would first ramble a lot, making him impatient. When there’s an open gap, it’s better to decide it in a fight directly.
Boom!
The first strike immediately caused the ground around them to collapse; the terrain cracked as if a meteor had fallen and struck.
Turquoise Pool, Jin Shanshun, and Qin Feng all retreated; such high-level combat was beyond their interference.
"Taichi Saint Heir!" Turquoise Pool’s eyes flickered, staring ahead.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
As the two began fighting, numerous figures arrived, standing at a distance of hundreds of meters.
Clearly, these were the people who had followed the Taichi Saint Heir to watch the battle.
"Fortunately, it just started."
"There’s another good show to watch. Will the Taichi Saint Heir defeat Ye Fentian? We’re looking forward to it."
"Place your bets, place your bets, anyone betting military merit points!"
"I bet on the Taichi Saint Heir!"
"I’m also betting on the Taichi Saint Heir to win!"
