Chapter 1686: Gathering of Talents
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The middle-aged man said, “This golden sword is a seventh level supreme tier spiritual treasure with immense power. It was one of the swords I had used in my youth, and now I’ll gift it to you in hopes that you can acquire the monarch soul fruit with it.”
The middle-aged man smiled lightly as he first handed the golden sword to Yangtian Jin, then he took out a set of golden armor from his interspatial ring and also handed it over.
Yangtian Jin was overjoyed as his eyes filled with excitement. Others may not know the origins of this golden sword and armor, but he knew clearly that both were super spiritual treasures once used by his master to defeat countless supreme level masters. It also made him the Sword Supreme Sect Master.
Yangtian Jin said, “Thank you Master for gifting me this supreme level sword and armour, I swear that I will defeat the other talents and retrieve the monarch soul fruit, or I’ll come back to master with my own head.”
Yangtian Jin bowed with respect as he took the treasures and left the Palace.
He was heading towards Crimson Fire Desert in search of the monarch soul fruit.
Before he left, Yangtian Jin called upon many of the genius disciples within the Sword Supreme Sect. There were roughly ten or so people who would go with him.
Even though Yangtian Jin was very powerful, he knew many would also be after the monarch soul fruit, so to ensure that he got it, he chose genius disciples to come along with him. If it had been a normal mission like killing demons and devils, then he could go alone.
Aside from the Sword Supreme Sect, two other people also received orders from their masters of the Saber Supreme and Black Elixir sects.
These two also had an incredible background. One was a strong youth cold Yidao Leng, the Saber Supreme sect master’s final disciple. He was incredibly famous in the Crimson Fire Continent as a supreme level genius that ranked amongst the top twenty.
Another was the final sect disciple of Black Elixir called Yifei Wang, who also had incredible power, and was a rare genius on the supreme level genius ranking list. Her skill in alchemy arts was god-like.
She had reached the supreme level of alchemy at a young age, and received the respect of many alchemists.
Of course, one might remember that Qingfeng held a grudge against these two. If he was there, then he might have slapped both of them on the face.
When Qingfeng first arrived on Mars from Earth, he met the chubby middle-aged man first, then Yangtian Jin, the final disciple of Sword Supreme sect, who was Qingfeng’s first enemy.
Qingfeng then met Yidao Leng and Yifei Wang, who were Qingfeng’s third and fourth enemies.
He clearly remembered how Yidao Leng ordered him to wash clothes, which angered Qingfeng so much, that he wanted to tear that arrogant guy’s face off.
However, Qingfeng’s powers had disappeared back then, so he restrained himself. If they met in the Crimson Fire Desert this time, Qingfeng would never let them go.
Yifei Wang might be beautiful, but she was rotten to the core, and so if Qingfeng met her, he would definitely slap her.
Aside from the countries of Lingyun, Fiery-Sun, Gold-Arrow, Clear-Wood, and Soil-Border, as well as the Sword Supreme, Saber Supreme, and Black Elixir sects, there were other powerful cultivators from lesser known sects which all headed towards the Crimson Fire Desert for the monarch soul fruit.
Due to the monarch soul fruit’s appearance, the five kingdoms of the Crimson Fire Continent fell into a competition, where countless talents from each faction poured into the Crimson Fire Desert.
All at once, the whole southern mainland was covered with changes and turbulences.
The sky was filled with murderous sword energy and deadly conflicts.
On the next day, the weather cleared up.
It was a good day, with a bright sun. As the warm sunlight poured out from the sky, it lit up the ground, and illuminated the silhouettes of shadows.
There were many magpies on the trees outside the hotel, as they chirped incessantly like they were celebrating.
Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Li Yang walked out of the room to the outside as two massive coaches waited for them.
The second prince sat inside the first coach, and he got off and walked over to Qingfeng. “Qingfeng, I’ve prepared a coach for you beside me.”
Qingfeng looked at the coach and nodded.
He was skilled in arrays, so clearly saw that there were many powerful talisman scripts sculpted on the coach, each falling in the supreme level.
The wind array on the wheels was to make the coach faster, and the demonic beast that pulled on the coach was a wind demonic leopard, which could move at incredible speed.
There were ten or so horses gathered behind the coach, mounted by men dressed in black. There were youths, middle-aged men, along with two elders, and two women on those horses.
However, all of them released powerful energy.
Qingfeng could clearly feel that their lowest abilities were among the seventh, eighth, and ninth levels of the spirit emperor realm, with three of them being in the supreme realm.
These men in black all worked for the Second Prince, as he had pulled out his biggest and most powerful forces this time to get the monarch soul fruit, without any hesitation.
When they saw that Second Prince had left the luxurious coach for Qingfeng, the ten or so people around all looked at Qingfeng with disdain.
Some of them had great achievements in cultivation and were prideful. They gathered around the Second Prince to help him get the future crown, and naturally wanted the Second Prince to pay attention to them.
However, the Second Prince only gave them tall black horses to ride on, and not coaches. Instead the coach was given to Qingfeng, so naturally they felt wronged.
Qingfeng didn’t care about what the people around thought, but as he led Black Puppy and Li Yang into the second coach, a strong middle-aged man in black blocked his way.
This strong middle-aged man in black just happened to be one of the Second Prince’s soldiers. He was incredibly tall at two meters, with sculpted muscles like firm rocks.
The middle-aged man in black stood there like a tall steel tower with dignity.
The Second Prince frowned clearly upset, he said, “Ta Hei, move aside, this coach was prepared for Qingfeng, why are you blocking it?”
Ta Hei said, “Your royal Second Prince, we are all your guests, why did you let Qingfeng ride your luxurious coach and not us. I feel that it’s unfair.”
Qingfeng smiled lightly and asked, “What is unfair?”
Ta Hei said coldly, “My cultivation level is stronger than yours, so this luxurious coach should be mine to ride.”
