Chapter 835: Dragon City Mystery Dimension

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The sudden appearance of the Five Tigers Sect First Sect Grand Elder boosted the team’s morale. Elder Mei Yixuan’s and Elder Qi Hang’s facial expressions relaxed significantly.

The Five Tigers Sect had come prepared to exchange the Dragon City Talisman, so there were two Sect Grand Elders secretly protecting the team. If the Baili Sect had not been aware of the Five Tigers Sect’s preparation, it would be almost impossible for them to take the Dragon City Talisman from the team.

Even though these black-robed men denied it, Mei Yixuan firmly believed that they must be from the Baili Sect. There were few sects in the Taihang Mountains who would dare to rob the Five Tigers Sect. The Baili Sect was the obvious suspect.

“So it turns out Yun Pengqing and Wang He, the two Sect Grand Elders, are here! I was wondering why the Five Tigers Sect assigned a few small fries to handle such an important mission,” the leading black-robed man said with a sinister smile. He had clearly recognized the two Five Tigers Sect Sect Grand Elders.

“No matter who you are, get out of our way immediately. If you refuse, don’t blame us for being rude,” Yun Pengqing said coldly.

If this were any other time, he would surely not let this matter go easily. However, he had an important treasure with him now and wanted to avoid stirring up any commotion. The most important mission now was to make it back to the Five Tigers Sect safely.

“Since you are here, you can’t expect to be allowed to simply leave! Do you think that we didn’t know about your secret preparation? Sending two Sect Grand Elders along, tsk tsk! The Five Tigers Sect is indeed cautious. Fellas, come out now. Let these Five Tigers Sect members experience what it’s like to be a mantis stalking a cicada but unaware of the oriole behind it.”

As soon as the leading black-robed man finished speaking, three terrifying auras swept out from a corner of the forest as though they were plowing the ground. The auras enveloped the Five Tigers Sect members.

Three other black-robed men appeared. Their cultivation was rather frightening. All of them were at the Embryonic Breathing Realm, qualifying them to be Sect Grand Elders in a large sect.

Yun Pengqing’s and Wang He’s facial expressions instantly turned sour. Very few sects in the Taihang Mountains could send out four Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners on one mission. Moreover, most of those sects would have to go all out in order to gather such talents. It was probable that only the Baili Sect could mobilize so many Embryonic Breathing Realm Sect Grand Elders just to steal a Dragon City Talisman.

“Cut to the chase! Kill them and get the treasure.”

One of the three Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners that had appeared possessed an astonishing killing spirit on him. It surged over him as he prepared to kill and steal, leaving the Five Tigers Sect no way out.

“You go too far!” Yun Pengqing was enraged. This person was too arrogant, and he actually intended to kill them all!

A green light flashed and Yun Pengqing engaged the black-robed man with the desire to kill. However, after just three exchanges, he was sent flying. His face was pale. He was clearly no match for this black-robed man.

“Cheng Zongping! So it was you!”

The black-robed man was consumed by a murderous intent. His entire body glowed with a faint crimson light called the Tianluo Bloody Force. In the entirety of the Taihang Mountains, only Cheng Zongping of the Baili Sect practiced this Bloody Force technique, so once they exchanged blows, Yun Pengqing had discovered his true identity.

The Tianluo Bloody Force was terrifying. It could break through an ancient martial art practitioner’s Inner Qi defense. Once one was hit by the Bloody Force, if they did not die, they would be severely injured.

In terms of cultivation, Yun Pengqing and Cheng Zongping were rather equal. They were both at the later stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. However, in terms of combat ability, Yun Pengqing was far inferior to Cheng Zongping.

Cheng Zongping was notorious in the Taihang Mountains. The number of people who could defeat him could be counted on one hand.

Cheng Zongping’s appearance had already proved that this operation was the work of Baili Sect. However, both Yun Pengqing and Wang He’s hearts sank. In the Baili Sect, Cheng Zongping was ranked second. If he was part of this, the Baili Sect was clearly not going to let them leave here alive.

“Wang He, you are in charge of breaking out of the encirclement! I’ll stay behind and hold them off!” Yun Pengqing gave Wang He a glance which had a deeper meaning. Mei Yixuan and Qi Hang also understood the look.

Mei Yixuan said nothing. She took out a cloth bag and passed it to Wang He. Inside was the Dragon City Talisman.

Everyone understood what Yun Pengqing meant. Even Wan’er and Wang Qian realized that a catastrophe was about to happen.

“This...” Wang He looked at the cloth bag with a troubled look on his face. He understood what Yun Pengqing meant. He was asking him to break out alone and get the Dragon City Talisman back to the sect. At the same time, he could report the incident to the sect leader. That would mean that it was likely that only he would make it out alive. Everyone else, including Yun Pengqing, would die here.

Mei Yixuan was full of regret. She wanted to give herself a good slap. If she had known that this would happen, she would not have brought Wan’er along. It was as though she had brought Wan’er to her doom. Originally, she had thought that nothing would happen given that the operation this time was so covert. However, she had underestimated the Baili Sect and that b*tch Fu Yu.

The Baili Sect’s ability to know their whereabouts so precisely had to be related to that b*tch Fu Yu. Also, there were probably other spies within the Five Tigers Sect in various high-ranking positions. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Fu Yu to know so much. Someone must have told her about this.

“Younger brother Wang, since things have come to this, securing the Dragon City Talisman is no longer the priority. The main goal is to spread the news of what happens today. I don’t want to die in vain. Even if we give them the Dragon City Talisman now, these Baili Sect members will most likely not spare us. If you manage to escape here alive, perhaps one day you can avenge us,” Yun Pengqing said with a serious expression.

The Baili Sect clearly did not plan to let them leave here alive. Usually, the sect who committed such a crime would surely kill everyone present. If the Five Tigers Sect did not make plans for one of them to escape, all of them would die here.

“Sect Grand Elder, only you have the ability to escape from here. You will be the only one who can tell the world about the Baili Sect’s evil acts. If you stay, you will die with us. However, if you manage to escape, we will feel at peace knowing that someone will expose them.”

Mei Yixuan was well-aware that only Wang He could find a way to escape while Yun Pengqing held the few Baili Sect Sect Grand Elders back. The rest of them were destined to die here.

Wan’er’s and Wang Qian’s faces were as pale as death, yet they both asked Wang He to escape. One of them getting away was better than them all dying here.

“Baili Sect, from today onwards, I, Wang He, will be your enemy. For the rest of my life, I will seek revenge on you for what has happened today,” Wang He shouted angrily as he dashed out of the woods like a streak of lightning.

At the same time, Yun Pengqing charged forward, planning to fight everyone by himself. He intended to engage the few Baili Sect Sect Grand Elders in a battle.

“Do you think you can escape? Dream on!” Cheng Zongping sneered and with a flick of his fingers, a blue light shot up into the sky and exploded instantly. It was followed by a blue silk net which dropped from the sky. The net looked like a fishing net, but it was much larger, covering an area of five kilometers.

The blue silk net did not drop straight on them. Instead, it formed an encirclement on top of everyone’s head, creating a dome-shaped space.

Wang He had already flown for a thousand meters, yet he still could not escape the encirclement of the blue silk net.

“The Blue Silk Cloud Net!” Yun Pengqing exclaimed, his facial expression turning ugly in an instant. The Blue Silk Cloud Net was a spiritual weapon used by the Huatian Palace’s high-ranking Executors to capture criminals. This weapon could envelop the space within a radius of five kilometers. No one could escape it. Under normal circumstances, only the Huatian Palace Executors would have the Blue Silk Cloud Net. When did the Baili Sect get their hands on such a treasure?

It was almost impossible for Wang He to escape once he was enveloped by the Blue Silk Cloud Net.

“You should be satisfied with the opportunity to die in the Blue Silk Cloud Net. Your guess was correct: we never planned to let you live,” Cheng Zongping said with a cold laugh.

The Blue Silk Cloud Net was a special reward given to the Baili Sect by the Huatian Palace after the sect completed a mission. The treasure had been kept in the Baili Sect for many years, yet it was rarely used. This time, in order to fight against the two Five Tigers Sect Sect Grand Elders, they had decided to make use of the Blue Silk Cloud Net.

Wang He, who had just flown for a thousand meters, had a furious expression on his face. He tried to fly up and attack the layer of blue silk net; however, he discovered that the net was tough and he was not capable of breaking it.

“Let’s kill them all.” Cheng Zongping waved his hand and more than ten Baili Sect masters immediately pounced on the Five Tiger Sect.

The black-robed men all had cultivation of at least the Qi Nucleation Realm, with four ancient martial art practitioners having Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivation. The members of the Five Tigers Sect were not much of an opponent for them at all.

COMMENT

Both Mei Yixuan and Qi Hang were only at the Qi Nucleation Realm. When faced with more than ten opponents who were of the same realm as them, they immediately found themselves at the short end of the stick, facing a life-threatening situation.

Yun Pengqing and Wang He were each engaged in a battle with two Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners. They were having trouble defending themselves, so they couldn’t possibly come over to help the others.

Wan’er and Wang Qian could only look at the battlefield. They were powerless. Anyone here could kill them with a casual slap. When faced with such a danger that rendered them defenseless, the two of them subconsciously hid behind Mo Wen.

Mo Wen shook his head helplessly. Why had they encountered such an unfortunate incident when they were just making a short trip? The martial arts circle was indeed full of fighting and killing; there was no such thing as peace.

Mo Wen had some understanding of why these ancient martial arts sects treated the Dragon City Talisman with great importance. It was because Dragon City was located not in the main space, but in a mystery dimension called the Dragon City Mystery Dimension.

The Dragon City Mystery Dimension was special because it was only one-tenth of the size of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Dragon City was the only city in the mystery dimension. Even though the Dragon City Mystery Dimension was small, it was stable. For many years, it had been controlled by the Huatian Palace, and only people who were authorized could enter the place.

COMMENT

The condition of a mystery dimension was very different from that of the main space. Mo Wen had only been to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension once, and he had benefited greatly from it, with his cultivation skyrocketing. The Dragon City Mystery Dimension was so important, so surely the spiritual energy in it was much richer than that of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. One could imagine how many resources were stored there.

For many ancient martial arts sects, the Martial Arts Circle Convention was most likely not their main purpose in going to Dragon City. Instead, they were aiming for the vast resources of the Dragon City Mystery Dimension. That was also why these sects would fight brutally for the sake of a Dragon City Talisman.

Mo Wen gave the black-robed men a glance. Judging from the current situation, if he didn’t help out, the members of the Five Tigers Sect would probably be killed.
