Chapter 39: Preparing for the Paramount Priority

This stroke of karma happened to coincide with his intended destination. Originally, Yang Tian's own intention was to head toward the barren region, because through the power of the awakened Vast and Boundless Mind-Fixing Pearl, he had acquired a divine body-refining technique within it.

Hearing this, Mature exchange a glance with Vice, unable to figure out what method their boss had used, or how he managed to track down the other party based on such meager information, especially since Jing Tian had never mentioned anything to them about spiritual awareness.

Sun Ce was the same; he also possessed an obstinacy. This stubborn pride sustained him, refusing to let him accept failure, and refusing to let him fawn and beg for mercy from his enemies.

In truth, Jemantai and Teluosai on the command tower no longer needed to distress themselves over what to do next.

At present, the core decision-makers of the Lu family clan were all gathered together, led by Lu Kang, whose hair was stark white and whose body resembled withered bones.

Jing Tian's current "Devil Power" was not very concentrated, and the effect of that unknown reaction was weak. That was why he had experienced such immense resistance just now when simulating the Six Powers of the Navy.

Plaboni was gifted with extraordinary natural talent, able to entangle opponents with membrane silk and slowly corrupt them with dark primordial poison. Yet he himself lacked such talent; could he possibly bind opponents using the "Chain-Lock Fixed Formation"? The binding effect of the Chain-Lock Fixed Formation could not compare even to the "Cable Silk" of the Som clan, let alone match membrane silk.

After an unknown length of time, Ning Daoqi raised his foot and stepped forward, a trace of astonishment lingering on his face. He slowly walked to the edge of the deep pit, leaned over, and peered inside.

However, if one were to count the place with the most unanimous and consistent evaluation regarding Zhang Ye's return, it would undoubtedly belong to the media reporters. Upon hearing that Zhang Ye was back, these media outlets and publishing houses acted as if they were celebrating the Lunar New Year. Especially the entertainment reporters—the scene was so joyous and tearful that they almost set off strings of firecrackers.

"Then what do you plan to do? Oh right, what about those two from the British Puritan Church last time? Didn't they say they would come looking for you later? But we haven't seen hide nor hair of them to this day," Lucy said again as she began mixing the nutrient solution once more.

As the Freedom Alliance continued to grow, it had impressively become a massive force capable of influencing the federal political landscape, even acting as the hypothetical enemy for all organizations. Tachuan would sooner or later have to fight a war against them. Therefore, such a rare and precious opportunity to observe and understand the strength and combat tactics of the Freedom Alliance at such close range was invaluable.

"Prepare to meet your doom, Zhou Tianlong! Flame of the Witch God!" Yu Zihua abruptly opened his mouth, and fierce tongues of flame spewed forth one after another, hurtling straight toward Zhou Tianlong.

While the Mi family was bustling away in full swing preparing provisions and grain, Huang Yan's side didn't have a single moment of leisure either.

"Boss Gao? Who is this Boss Gao?" Zhou Tianlong asked with a puzzled expression. However, seeing Zheng Fei's tightly furrowed brow, he figured Zheng Fei was likewise unwilling to offend someone called Boss Gao.

Scattering all the spiritual stones obtained this time into the Gourd World, Li Ming knew that if he wanted to elevate his cultivation realm, he had to provide the Gourd World with massive amounts of spiritual substances, whether they were spiritual stones, medicinal pills, or rare spiritual materials.

Yet he had only been struck once across the body with the shaft of a spear—no blood had been drawn, nor had he lost his life. It hardly warranted demanding the other person's life in exchange, did it?

Following the Wind and Drifting was slightly stunned. Could it be that Yang Bufan was unaware of their news about attacking the castle? Or perhaps their encounter today was merely a coincidence.

"My apprentice, didn't you perceive the problem within all this?" Dugu Tianfeng prompted with a reminder.

Immediately afterward, Wang Tian saw Huo Yan emerge from the room, dressed in coarse white plain cloth. She looked like a white lotus that instantly brightened one's eyes, and like a white chrysanthemum that refreshed his heart and spirit.

The Nemean Lion was the most formidable and majestic beast on the Peloponnesian continent, unflinching even when facing far more powerful magical monsters. Its roar could intimidate any creature weaker than it, and legend had it that unarmed humans standing before it would be scared to death by its roar alone.

The brothers Du Chen and Du Li, who were suspected of being involved in this matter, had already been dispatched by the family to the Undead Continent.

"I wonder if there really are immortals, gods, ghosts, and monsters in this world that could single-handedly cause such massive damage to Tokyo. To be honest, I'm actually quite happy about it," Tang暮云 said with an admiring expression on his face, clearly having learned of this sealed piece of news through certain channels.

Now, people could only place their hopes on Baichuan and Liu Xu to avenge Jiang Hua and Yuan Zhen, thereby establishing the intimidating prestige of the righteous sects.

Wells and Grah low chuckled softly. As subterranean fiend races, nothing brought them more joy than witnessing chaotic scenes. Fiends and demons were naturally fond of combat—it was part of their temperament, and also something deliberately cultivated by their elders.

Following the flash of fire, Zheng Ji circled back to the entrance, only to discover with astonishment that this door seemed to be made of some unknown material. Aside from a virtually imperceptible deformation and scorching caused by the explosion, it still firmly guarded its original place.

However, before he could retreat very far, the deep blue finger had already crushed the jade tablet and pressed straight toward him. The Nine Nether Ice Flame dispersed, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet rapidly and coating Zhong Li's body in a layer of frost, which severely hampered his movements.

Conversely, Chu Tianyu could leverage his own strengths and launch heavy, decisive strikes, which would undoubtedly yield miraculous results.

Do not doubt why Yuan Xing could speak Japanese; in their routine training, the bare minimum requirement was mastering four or five foreign languages, and the most proficient ones even mastered over twenty.

Almost at the exact moment the two made contact, the ice-wind vortex was shattered, and the Heavenly Fire Finger pierced straight through, pressing once again toward Zhong Li.

This courtyard covered an immense area and seemed to belong to some prominent aristocratic family. The two walked for quite a while before finally reaching a detached residence beside a pool in the back.

Ever since the battle beneath the God-Bewitching City against the Tree Demon Granny, his other shikigami had basically not recovered. Yet now, having reached a life-or-death juncture, he had to force them out even if it meant sacrificing a portion of his lifespan.

Because this young man's subordinates looked far more imposing than his own elder brother's men, and even though these people were mere shrimp soldiers and crab generals in his eyes, they at least carried themselves with proper military bearing.
