Chapter 527: Chapter 0522: Incitement (Request for Subscription and Monthly Tickets)

“…If you give me another ten jin of Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal, I will leave and never reveal this information, how about that?” Evil Fire Ancestor said with a shameless smile.

“Absolutely not.”

Xuanhuo Turtle glared at him angrily.

“Since that’s the case, I’ll leave first and let them come in to snatch the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal, huh? Then you’ll have to face two humans alone while watching out for my attack from the shadows, hehe.” Evil Fire Ancestor made his threat crystal clear to Xuanhuo Turtle, including his scheming.

“You… you’re actually threatening me.”

Xuanhuo Turtle’s body trembled slightly, and the fiery aura around it surged.

“Fine, after we kill those two humans together, I’ll give you five jin of Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal. Then you can get as far away as possible, or I’ll never let you go.” Xuanhuo Turtle eventually compromised, angrily declaring, causing Evil Fire Ancestor in the volcanic cave to feel a chill.

Just then, the two sensed two other presences approaching.

The next moment, Chen Yu and Feng Tianhao appeared at the mouth of the cave.

“There’s even an ancient beast from the Late Guiyuan Realm!”

Feng Tianhao observed Xuanhuo Turtle with a slightly shocked expression, which soon turned solemn. While Evil Fire Ancestor’s strength was nearly at the Late Guiyuan Realm, this ancient beast was truly at that level, and its combat power was certainly extraordinary.

“Are these the two humans?” Xuanhuo Turtle’s angry and icy gaze also sized up Chen Yu and Feng Tianhao.

“Tell us, how did you discover the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal here?” Xuanhuo Turtle coldly demanded.

On the side, Evil Fire Ancestor was momentarily stunned, his mouth twitching a few times as he realized what it meant to have a teammate like a pig. He had merely pretended that the intruders had discovered the secret of the crystals to deflect responsibility and rush Xuanhuo Turtle.

Unfortunately, Xuanhuo Turtle took it for real and believed these two had actually found the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals here.

On the other hand, Feng Tianhao, seeing the powerful enemies, initially wanted to retreat. But upon hearing Xuanhuo Turtle’s words, he stopped.

“There are Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals here?” Feng Tianhao’s heart pounded. There were two ways to earn contribution points for the mission: first, by killing indigenous beings of Guiyuan Realm; second, by handing in Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals.

One jin of Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals was worth a hundred contribution points. Killing a native from the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm also earned only a hundred points, but the problem was, there weren’t enough Middle Stage natives just lining up to be killed.

Besides, Feng Tianhao didn’t believe there was only one jin of Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal here.

“If we succeed in taking the crystals here, it would be an enormous gain. Then we could just hide somewhere and wait for the mission period to end before going back.”

“Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals.” Chen Yu was likewise extremely eager for such a treasure. The preciousness of this item was undeniable, but Elder Chang initially hadn’t specified the use of the treasure, which made Chen Yu very curious.

“Brother Chen, we can’t just leave like this. We must get a share of the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals. If they do not agree, we’ll make a big deal out of this. I believe they wouldn’t want such a thing to happen,” Feng Tianhao secretly communicated with Chen Yu. Although he desired the treasure, weighing both sides’ strengths, he felt that they had no chance of winning.

“Okay.” Chen Yu agreed.

“Hurry up and attack.” Evil Fire Ancestor made a low shout. He and Xuanhuo Turtle together were much stronger than their opponents; there was no need for idle talk.

“Wait a moment, both of you. We entered here unintentionally. If we can get some Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals, we will leave this place and not spread the word,” Feng Tianhao took the initiative to negotiate.

Upon hearing this, Xuanhuo Turtle immediately looked at Evil Fire Ancestor: “You actually deceived me; they did not know about the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals here, Evil Fire Ancestor. Is this your trick to lure these two here…”

This time Evil Fire Ancestor was truly wronged. Chen Yu and Feng Tianhao had come to the vicinity while chasing an ancient beast, and thus encountered each other, leading to this conflict.

He had escaped here wanting to ally with Xuanhuo Turtle to kill the two men, but who knew Xuanhuo Turtle, because of being tricked by him last time, doubted Evil Fire Ancestor and was somewhat foolish, thus exposing the treasure here.

“There seems to be a conflict between the man and the beast!” Chen Yu and Feng Tianhao looked at each other, thoughtful.

The situation was now quite complex, as both were considering how to take advantage of the circumstances for greater gain.

A moment later, Feng Tianhao spoke: “We did not know there were Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals here before. It is kind of Evil Fire Ancestor to bring us here.”

Feng Tianhao chuckled softly, looking at the Evil Fire Ancestor with a look of gratitude.

“You…” Evil Fire Ancestor was so angry he didn’t know what to say: “Don’t listen to their nonsense.”

Xuanhuo Turtle trusted Evil Fire Ancestor even less now, even showing some hostility.

“Attack!” Feng Tianhao suddenly transmitted.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Both men made a lightning-fast move, striking towards Evil Fire Ancestor. If they could kill him first, Xuanhuo Turtle’s side would weaken, making negotiation possible, and there would be one less person to share the spoils with.

While Evil Fire Ancestor was busy explaining to Xuanhuo Turtle, he suddenly noticed the enemies attacking him, causing his heart to skip a beat.

“Sea Covering Palm.” Feng Tianhao immediately activated his bloodline power and then unleashed a powerful killing move. He slowly pushed out a palm, which seemed extremely strenuous. Behind the massive palm light, gigantic waves seemed to be pulling, ready to drown everything.

Madness Demon Slash! Chen Yu drew out the “Demon Flood Dragon Sword” and executed a sword technique, slashing out a curved arc of black wind and demon light sword waves.

“Damn, quick, save me…”

Evil Fire Ancestor had no time for more words, raising his staff and pointing forward, releasing a surge of fiery power that transformed into a wall of fire blocking the front.

Then, he held his staff horizontally in front, forming a dark red Fire Pattern Light Shield.

“Xuanhuo Turtle, we have a feud with Evil Fire Ancestor, and I hope you won’t interfere in our matters.”

Feng Tianhao took the opportunity to distract Xuanhuo Turtle.

Boom!

When their attacks arrived, the fire wall was instantly destroyed.

Fire Dao power excelled in offense, not defense.

Crack!

Immediately after, the protective shield around Evil Fire Ancestor was also shattered, sending his body smashing backward into the stone wall, creating a human-shaped indent as he spat out three mouthfuls of fresh blood.

“You stupid turtle, if I die, they will definitely seize your Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal.”

Evil Fire Ancestor, overwhelmed with frustration and anger, cursed aloud.

Seeing Evil Fire Ancestor in such a sorry state, Xuanhuo Turtle thought this could not be his scheme–who would harm themselves?

“You humans are too cunning.”

Xuanhuo Turtle, extremely annoyed, suddenly charged at Chen Yu and Feng Tianhao.

The authority of the ancient beast unfolded, a wave of scorching fire rushing toward them, making Feng Tianhao’s skin burn and his body excessively hot inside.

This Xuanhuo Turtle, an ancient beast, was stronger than anticipated.

“Brother Chen, you restrain the Xuanhuo Turtle first; I’ll deal with Evil Fire Ancestor.”

Feng Tianhao dodged and left Chen Yu to cope with the formidable Xuanhuo Turtle.

Unable to react in time, Chen Yu saw the Xuanhuo Turtle charging headfirst.

Not only did it have spikes on its shell, but there was also one on its head.

Chen Yu positioned his sword horizontally in front.

Boom!

The head of the Xuanhuo Turtle collided, creating a giant noise.

The powerful force of the ancient beast in the Late Guiyuan Realm forced Chen Yu to retreat wildly.

Chen Yu energized his heart, the power amplifying, slowing his backward momentum until he finally steadied himself, blocking the charge of the Xuanhuo Turtle.

“Eh? You human have such great strength?”

The Xuanhuo Turtle was taken aback.

Humans never fought ancient beasts in close combat, as ancient beasts’ bodies were full of lethal weapons, capable of easily slicing through humans’ True Essence protection and killing them.

Boom!

Just then, the Demon Flood Dragon Sword with True Yuan surged, emitting a series of explosive sounds characteristic of its explosive attribute.

Even the flesh of the Xuanhuo Turtle couldn’t withstand the explosions.

Boom!

The Xuanhuo Turtle stepped back several paces, rearing its head and spewing out a terrifying column of flame.

Swish!

Chen Yu dodged, avoiding a direct clash.

This Xuanhuo Turtle likely possessed a very high lineage among ancient beasts, having considerable strength.

“Red Flame King, it’s your turn.”

Chen Yu patted his pet bag and released the Red Flame King.

“I was sleeping; this is so annoying.”

The Red Flame King glanced at Chen Yu with impatience but still confronted the Xuanhuo Turtle.

“Remember, don’t reveal the Holy Beast Bloodline.”

Chen Yu sent a telepathic warning.

With Feng Tianhao here, if others knew Chen Yu possessed a Holy Beast Spirit Pet, it would only attract more trouble.

“It’s just a little turtle; it doesn’t deserve my full effort.”

The Red Flame King scoffed.

“Little turtle!”

When the Xuanhuo Turtle approached the Red Flame King, its body was three times the size of the Red Flame King’s.

Additionally, having cultivated for hundreds of years, the Xuanhuo Turtle was being called a little turtle for the first time.

As a proud ancient beast, it couldn’t tolerate such an insult and revealed a ferocious cold smile before attacking the Red Flame King.

“The Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal should be right below this magma.”

Chen Yu glanced around, spotted nothing, and his eyes fell to the magma below.

Spurt!

Chen Yu raised his True Essence Shield and dove into the magma.

On the other side, Feng Tianhao, surprised by the scene, felt somewhat envious.

“This kid actually has another ancient beast spirit pet.” He thought.

Besides, Feng Tianhao had planned to kill Evil Yin Ancestor first, then retrieve the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal himself, potentially keeping some.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yu had released a spirit pet to hold back the Xuanhuo Turtle and was the first to go retrieve the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal.

“Die!”

Feng Tianhao immediately went all out, launching a fierce attack on Evil Yin Ancestor.

Originally ambushed and heavily injured by the two, Evil Yin Ancestor, now soaked in blood-stained robes, was at his last gasp; he ultimately couldn’t withstand Feng Tianhao’s brutal assault and was killed with a palm strike.

…

Arriving in the magma, Chen Yu instantly felt a strong wave of fire elemental power.

Following these fluctuations, he swam forward and soon discovered a small cluster of shiny, translucent crystals on the bedrock above.

Without question, this was the Primordial Spirit Flame Crystal.

Around the crystal, the magma continuously churned, possessing extraordinary destructive power. As Chen Yu approached, the power of his True Essence Shield rapidly depleted, almost dispersing.
