Chapter 1367 – An Inevitable Clash of Enemies

“Moonlight Sky Bamboo!”

Everyone stared as one into the Heaven’s Legacy Race building. Even Zhao Feng was extremely tempted and forgot about the danger the little thieving cat had mentioned.

Ordinary Time Intent cultivation resources only contained the power of Time Intent, but Moonlight Sky Bamboo contained Time Essence, a true treasure among Time Intent cultivation resources.

After consuming this precious plant, one could slowly refine the Time Essence, which would increase the efficiency with which one comprehended Time Intent. Moreover, it was also rumored that Moonlight Sky Bamboo could increase the ability of the user to comprehend Time Intent. It was a resource that cultivators of Time Intent could only dream about.

Although all of them were tempted by this incredibly valuable treasure, none of them dared to act recklessly. Based on previous experience, any place with valuable treasure had corresponding danger. There was no telling what unknown danger resided in the Heaven’s Legacy Race building in which the Moonlight Sky Bamboo was located.

The group cautiously approached while observing their surroundings.

“There’s nothing strange.”

Not noticing anything suspicious after inspecting the area, they began to move a little faster.

But before they could get within one hundred feet of the Heaven’s Legacy Race building, they suddenly felt an incredibly high-level Time Intent pressing down on them.

“What powerful suppression!” Ancient God Resplendence said in surprise.

“It must be the Time energy released by the Moonlight Sky Bamboo!” Ancient God Cheng Yun excitedly said.

The Moonlight Sky Bamboo was a treasure for cultivating Time Intent and was of extremely high level. Given the fact that all the resources in this place were extremely old, it wasn’t strange at all for it to exude such high-level Time energy.

Of course, there was another reason; none of them were that skilled in Time Intent. The suppression would have been much weaker otherwise.

Upon entering the Heaven’s Legacy Race building, they still didn’t notice anything strange, so they got bolder and bolder and charged straight at the Moonlight Sky Bamboo. However, as they approached, the Time Intent suppression increased to absurd levels. It was as if space had become a thick and viscous paste that greatly hindered all their movements.

But it was precisely this that indicated just how high-quality this Moonlight Sky Bamboo was.

The group was just ten feet from the Moonlight Sky Bamboo, but advancing a single inch further would take an enormous amount of time.

At this moment, Zhao Feng’s left eye noticed something strange.

“Watch out!” Zhao Feng immediately warned, but his voice came out of his mouth very slowly.

Before he could finish speaking, three blurry flashes of white light emerged from the interior of the building.

Swoosh swoosh!

In a flash, those three lights approached Zhao Feng’s group with astonishing speed. The Time Intent suppression made it impossible for the group to react, not even to deploy defensive measures.

Boom! Bang!

Several thorns of light as thick as an arm exploded toward their position.

Fortunately, these attacks weren’t that powerful, so they didn’t suffer lethal injury. However, if they continued to remain by the Moonlight Sky Bamboo, they would have no ability to counterattack, and their injuries would build up until they could take no more.

The group began to move away from the Moonlight Sky Bamboo.

“What is that?”

“They don’t seem to have very high cultivation, and their attacks aren’t very strong. Otherwise, we would have been finished back there!”

As Zhao Feng’s group moved away from the Moonlight Sky Bamboo, the Time Intent suppression weakened.

Everyone stared at the three spiritual bodies floating over their heads. These were three unique Yao Gods, about the same size as an ordinary person, but their expressions were savage. Their eyes were triangular and they had long ears, making them seem like little devils. They had no legs, their torsos simply floating in the air.

“Humans, die!”

The three “Devil” Yao Gods glared at Zhao Feng’s group and began their assault.

“How reckless! So weak, and yet they dare to attack us?” Ancient God Cheng Yun couldn’t help but coldly sneer.

They had almost gotten their hands on the Moonlight Sky Bamboo, but these three Devil Yao Gods forced them to retreat. They had all tasted the strength of these Devil Yao Gods though; their attacks were only slightly stronger than those of an ordinary Rank Eight.

The three Devil Yao Gods were unmoved, their killing intent toward the group almost tangible.

Swoosh swoosh!

Several white flashes of light shot forward.

Before Ancient God Cheng Yun could even react, he was struck by these attacks.

The others managed to react, but the only ones who succeeded in dodging were Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng.

“What fast attacks!” Ancient God Resplendence called out in alarm.

They failed to notice this point while under the immense Time Intent suppression.

“Hurry and kill them, or else we won’t be able to get the Moonlight Sky Bamboo!” Ancient God Cheng Yun yelled as he shot forward, slashing out with his palm.

Hwoooom!

Ancient God Cheng Yun cultivated Wind Intent, so this palm moved with incredible speed.

But these three Yao Gods only shifted their bodies slightly to the left to easily dodge the attack.

Meanwhile, the rest of the group also launched a salvo of attacks to get rid of these three Yao Gods.

Boom! Swoosh!

The air was filled with attacks flying back and forth.

The three Yao Gods bobbed and weaved through the small openings between these attacks, dodging every attack and emerging completely unharmed.

On the contrary, it was their opponents who were gradually accumulating wounds. The three Devil Yao Gods had extremely swift attacks that could not be dodged unless one put all their energy into doing so.

“Damn….”

This situation left all of them feeling rather stifled. Alas, the three Devil Yao Gods simply moved too quickly, on the same level as Instant Movement.

Instant Movement needed time to execute, but these three Yao Gods were naturally endowed with this speed. These Yao Gods moved so quickly that even engaging them in close combat was implausible.

“It’s hard to lock onto them with eye-bloodline techniques.” Zhao Feng helplessly smiled.

These three Yao Gods were also extremely perceptive, and the moment they sensed that Zhao Feng was trying to lock onto them, they would swiftly move away.

What incredible speed! Could this be the Light Race of the top ten ancient races?  Xin Wuheng muttered to himself in shock.

The rank 7th Light Race wielded the power of time. They possessed the fastest speed in the Fan Universe, and no one else could compare.

But the Light Race were not Yao Gods, and their external appearance was completely different from these Devil Yao Gods.

…

Meanwhile, the three teams of Ancient Soul Hall, after making a brief sweep of the Giant God Race treasury, split up to continue searching for Xin Wuheng’s group.

“Don’t let me catch you, because once I’m done with you, you’ll be begging for death!” Ancient God Jailsea had a gloomy expression.

He was on the verge of obtaining the Ancient God Seal and rendering the greatest service on this mission, but instead, Xin Wuheng and Zhao Feng’s scheme caused his team to be surrounded and attacked by two groups of Yao Gods, causing him to lose all his dignity in front of Ancient God Destruction Flow.

Ancient God Jailsea barely finished speaking when the crystal ball in his hand began to flash.

“It’s nearby!” Ancient God Jailsea was startled.

The other members of Ancient Soul Hall were also rather surprised. They hadn’t expected for their luck to be so good that they would once more find the location of their target.

“Elder, you’re not informing Yu Heng?” the Rank Nine Ancient God of his team asked.

Yu Heng had ordered that, once the location of the Ancient God Seal was discovered, he needed to be informed immediately.

“No rush,” Ancient God Jailsea hesitated a moment before saying.

If he could successfully get back the Ancient God Seal this time, he would be richly rewarded.

There was another reason; his mortal foe Ancient God Destruction Flow was in Yu Heng’s team, and he did not want Ancient God Destruction Flow to benefit from his discovery.

“If we can resolve it on our own, the merit will be all ours. And if we find it difficult, we can still inform them later.” Once Ancient God Jailsea added this comment, the other two members agreed.

Ancient God Jailsea’s team swiftly flew in the direction indicated by the crystal ball.

“A building of the Heaven’s Legacy Race!” the Rank Nine expert of Ancient Soul Hall called out in surprise.

“How could there be a building of the Heaven’s Legacy Race here?” the other member muttered in shock.

They understood the Ancestral Legacy Treasury to be a private treasury of the Giant God Race, and yet here was a building of the Heaven’s Legacy Race. It was apparent that this treasury had an unusual background.

“They must be inside that Heaven’s Legacy Race building, searching for treasure!” The Rank Nine Ancient God was shocked.

The Heaven’s Legacy Race had left branches of its inheritance scattered across the Fan Universe, and there were both major and minor treasures within them. A high-level dimension like the Ancestral Legacy Treasury was almost assuredly home to an unusual inheritance of the Heaven’s Legacy Race.

“Hmph! This clash was inevitable!” Ancient God Jailsea grimly smiled and then led his team forward.

Before they could approach the building, they sensed astonishing ripples of Divine Power and the sounds of fighting, so they slightly slowed down.

…

Within the Heaven’s Legacy Race building, the three extremely fast Devil Yao Gods had left the Giant God Race group extremely annoyed.

“Use large-scale attacks to completely lock down the places they can dodge,” Zhao Feng suggested.

This suggestion immediately had everyone’s agreement. The three Devil Yao Gods moved too quickly, but the confines of this area restricted their advantage.

“Water Lightning Illusion Domain!” Zhao Feng activated his left eye and unleashed a net of lightning.

As this Lightning energy expanded, it absorbed the surrounding Water Intent to become an enormous Water Lightning net that sealed off the paths of retreat for the three Devil Yao Gods.

The Giant God Race members also used their own large-scale attacks.

The only stand-out trait of these Devil Yao Gods was their incredible speed, but their defenses were quite mediocre. In the face of this joint attack, they were quickly slain.

“We finally got rid of them!” Ancient God Cheng Yun exhaled and then turned back to the Moonlight Sky Bamboo.

But at this moment, three powerful energies appeared outside the Heaven’s Legacy Race building.

“Haha, the Moonlight Sky Bamboo is ours! Your lives are also ours!” Ancient God Jailsea loudly laughed.

They lost out last time, but now, not only had they discovered Zhao Feng and the others, they had also found the Time Intent cultivation treasure Moonlight Sky Bamboo! This was a double harvest.

“It’s someone else!” Ancient God Resplendence grimaced.

The others also had rather ugly expressions. Inside this building, their senses were hindered, preventing them from realizing what was going on outside until it was too late.

“They’re… members of Ancient Soul Hall!” Ancient God Sundermount was stunned.

Didn’t the Ancestral Legacy Treasury require the Ancient God Seal to access? How could the members of Ancient Soul Hall have appeared here?

“The people of Ancient Soul Hall are here?” Xin Wuheng and Zhao Feng were also stunned and in disbelief.

“How could this be?” Ancient God Cheng Yun trembled, despair on his face.

Earlier, just when they were about to obtain the precious Moonlight Sky Bamboo, the three Devil Yao Gods appeared to make trouble. Now, after they were dealt with, an even greater danger had emerged.

Although there were only three foes, it was not something their group could handle. Just that half-step God Lord alone could dominate this battlefield.
