Chapter 1213: Battle For the Dark Essence Crystal
Outside the Dark Essence Mine, a lithe figure ran quickly through a forest.
He was traveling at an extremely fast speed, and all obstacles before him were used as footholds from which he propelled, allowing him to travel even faster than if he were to fly through the air.
Huang Fuwen was an itinerant cultivator from the Heavenly River State.
He was a renounced child of a family clan in which he was constantly looked down on and had many restrictions he had to abide by. However, through a coincidental opportunity, he obtained a black bead in which the soul of an old man resided.
The old man identified the Dark Root that he had been born with and instructed him to regulate the power of darkness in his body, upon which his cultivation base progressed extremely quickly.
He was a fairly handsome man, and he was currently holding a black crystal in his hand with a smug smile on his face. “With this Dark Essence Crystal, I will become even more powerful. Even Yan Meng won’t be a match for me!”
At this moment, a cultured old man with white hair floated out from the black bead he had with him. “Huang Fuwen, becoming too complacent and arrogant is a cardinal sin in cultivation. You have a good aptitude, but make sure you do not underestimate your enemies no matter where you are. You need to have a modest yet unyielding heart in order to go far on the path to pursuing dao!”
Huang Fuwen didn’t really take this to heart. “Alright, Elder Ming, I know I’m only at the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage and that isn’t much, but I’ll definitely help you forge a body when I reach the Return to Void Stage!”
A gratified smile appeared on Elder Ming’s face.
The handsome man stroked the Dark Essence Crystal in his hand with an elated smile. “That mine crystal lizard dragon at the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage was quite a headache for me to deal with, but who would have thought another group of cultivators would take care of it for me? It feels pretty good reaping the rewards of someone else’s efforts!”
“That group of cultivators is not to be messed with. Hurry up and get away from here.” Even though that was what Elder Ming was saying, it was clear that he wasn’t really worried.
All of a sudden, an enraged roar erupted from the sky above.
“Roar! Thief! Hand over the Dark Essence Crystal, and I’ll spare your life!” A Soul Formation Stage dragon flew through the air with a few humans on its head, who were all holding strange devices.
“There’s no mistaking it! He had the Dark Essence Crystal!”
One powerful being after another began to appear, and all of them joined in to chase Huang Fuwen down.
“Hey! The Dark Essence Crystal was nurtured by the mountains! It has no owner, so how can you say it’s yours? This is a robbery!” Huang Fuwen yelled.
All of the powerful beings exploded with rage upon hearing this.
They fought the BOSS, only to have this guy running away with the treasure, but he was now slandering them for robbery? What a joke!
“Seeing as you won’t comply, then don’t blame me for this!”
The dragon in the sky let loose an enraged roar.
Bolts of lightning began to fall from the sky.
Huang Fuwen evaded the bolts of lightning through the use of his agile movement techniques, and his expression darkened as he put the Dark Essence Crystal into his storage ring. “I didn’t think that they would be able to trace my presence. It looks like I’ve got an inevitable battle on my hands…”
At this moment, the five Soul Formation Stage powerful beings that had arrived first began to unleash attacks upon him.
Huang Fuwen evaded in an awkward manner.
“Leave the Dark Essence Crystal, and we’ll let you leave.”
The dragon’s voice rumbled like thunder.
“You forced me to do this!” Huang Fuwen roared as he transformed into a black shadow. He then sprang into the air toward the dragon in the sky!
“What?!” The dragon didn’t think that their opponent would be capable of retaliation, and it tried to evade.
However, Huang Fuwen was extremely decisive and as fast as lightning!
“Die!”
The power of his Dark Root completely erupted.
At the same time, his hands became like sabers imbued with extremely terrifying saber intent.
Huang Fuwen had only recently progressed to the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage, but the explosive power he was exhibiting rivaled that of a Soul Formation Final Stage powerful being!
An inky-black saber projection swept past, and the Soul Formation Stage dragon was sliced in half!
“Howl…!”
The dragon let loose a wail of anguish before crashing to the ground, where it fell completely lifeless.
“Brother Xu Li!” A Dark Wing Tribe powerful being flared up with rage.
They were only trying to take back the Dark Essence Crystal, and they did not expect their opponent to retaliate with killing intent!
“All those who impede me will die!”
Huang Fuwen stood valiantly in the air with an unruly expression.
At this moment, all of the Divine Mirror Enforcement Team powerful beings had converged at the scene.
“Anyone who kills members of our Four Nine Immortal Sect will pay a heavy price!” a Dark Wing Tribe powerful being said in a cold voice.
Four Nine Immortal Sect?
Huang Fuwen and Elder Ming’s expressions both shifted upon hearing this.
However, Huang Fuwen recovered after a moment of silence and chuckled coldly. “So what if you’re from the Four Nine Immortal Sect? I won’t concede to anyone in my life! If it’s a battle you want, then it’s a battle you’ll get!”
“Get into formation!”
A battle instantly erupted.
Terrifying spell techniques razed everything within a radius of five kilometers to the ground.
This formation that was established by the Spirit Nurturing Stage and Soul Formation Stage powerful beings was powerful enough to insta-kill a Soul Formation Final Stage powerful being, so Huang Fuwen was no match for it.
Soon, Huang Fuwen plummeted to the ground in an extremely sorry state.
“Elder Ming!” he yelled.
All of a sudden, the white-haired old man flew out from the black ball before rushing into Huang Fuwen’s body.
Boom!
An extremely terrifying aura began to exude forth.
Huang Fuwen’s aura began to climb explosively. Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage, rookie Return to Void Stage, Return to Void Initial Stage…
All of the Divine Mirror Enforcement Team powerful beings’ expressions shifted drastically.
A Heavenly Turtle Tribe powerful being immediately sent out an SOS to the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
Huang Fuwen had already stood back up, and he was glaring at the powerful beings before him with an expression filled with rage and hatred. “How dare you make me expend Elder Ming’s power! You must all die! I will remember this, Four Nine Immortal Sect! I vow to destroy your sect one day!”
All of the Divine Mirror Enforcement Team powerful beings had been stunned into silence.
A woman couldn’t help but let loose a cry of surprise, “Is this guy retarded?!”
“Die!” Huang Fuwen sprang into action.
The Divine Mirror Enforcement Team formation materialized another Demonic God Slaying Spear, which hurtled toward Huang Fuwen!
Huang Fuwen’s expression remained unchanged as a large ball of dark energy flowed from his body.
The spear that was powerful enough to insta-kill a Soul Formation Final Stage powerful being was completely vanquished upon sinking into the ball of dark energy.
“Die!” Huang Fuwen spread open his arms, and a black power of darkness instantly proliferated outward to encompass an area within a radius of over a kilometer, thus engulfing the entire Divine Mirror Enforcement Team.
After a few seconds, only one man remained standing in mid-air.
He was Huang Fuwen.
All of the other living beings had been completely engulfed by the power of darkness.
He stood in mid-air and raised his proud head. “The Four Nine Immortal Sect is nothing! I will be the man who will stand at the very pinnacle of this world!”
At The United University of Cultivation.
An Lin was listening to Earth Immortal Cang Qing delivering a vehement lecture, with spittle flying from his mouth, on how to use spell techniques during a battle.
His voice transmission talisman suddenly lit up.
“Hey, Big Sister Bai, why are you suddenly calling me? Do you miss me?” An Lin said in a quiet voice with a smirk on his face.
“Quit fooling around! I have something important to tell you,” Bai Ling snapped.
“What is it?” An Lin was getting a little nervous.
“When the Second Divine Mirror Enforcement Team was carrying out the mission to collect the Dark Essence Crystal, the crystal was stolen, and they were all killed during their attempt to recover it,” Bai Ling replied.
An Lin: “!!!”
