"We'll give them to you!" Nether king shouted once he saw that they were nearing death's door.
Xuanyuan waved his hand and a refreshing aura washed upon them as they recovered a portion of their HP. But they began decreasing in the next moment as the Golden chains continued sucking their HP.
"There won't be a second time" Xuanyuan said and they all began taking out all they had forming a small mountain of Magic crystals before Xuanyuan.
"That's all we have" Nether king said. By now, there's over 10 million Magic crystals before Xuanyuan.
"Now release us" Nether king requested.
"Not yet, you're still hiding more" Xuanyuan narrowed his eyes at Nether king. "I won't repeat myself" he said and the rate at which their HP decreased doubled. Now they only have less than ten seconds.
"Thief!" Nether king spat as he dropped more crystals. They were even more than the ones he'd dropped previously.
"Of course, I'm a thief. How else would I be able to smell the Magic crystals you've hidden" Xuanyuan smirked.
"You'll regret this" Nether king said.
"Thanks for the compensation" Xuanyuan bowed and with a wave of his hand, the whole mountain of Magic crystal disappeared into his spatial bag. The eyes of Nether king and his friends went bloodshot as they watched all this.
"Till we meet again" Xuanyuan said and stepped into a spatial gate that appeared before him. Once he disappeared, the Valkyrie confronting the Elder similarly dispersed. The Elder descended and broke the chains binding Nether king and the others.
"Can we find him?" Nether king asked.
"I'm afraid it's too late. He's already beyond the range of my domain" the Elder said. "Let's return to the sect" the Elder said and stepped on a flying ship which brought them back to Dominion sect...
Xuanyuan on the other hand was already miles away from his original location. He'd long since moved beyond the range of the Elder but he'd left a fragment of his will there so he could clearly see that they had returned. Xuanyuan retrieved his will and continued on to Divine sky city. He didn't use flying ships though, as using it will make him stand out in the sky making him prone to attacks from others. And there are many cultivators in the Ancient realm some of which are even more stronger than he is. It's better to avoid troubles that will delay his promotion.
With his abilities, he could draw teleportation scrolls that allowed him to travel several miles instantenously. But even with that, it still took him several days to finally reach Divine sky city...
In the central regions of the Ancient realm of spirituality, a magnificent city which radiated an ancient aura that depicted its long existence. Divine sky city is one whose history can be traced long before the Ancient era and was one of the cities with tier 6 rulers. This made it one of the most influential city in the Ancient realm of spirituality.
Xuanyuan sighed heavily as he took in a fresh of breath air when he entered the city. He'd been on the road traveling continuously once he left Sky cloud city and even with his speed, it still took him three days to finally arrive in Divine sky city. During this trip, he'd expended a lot of concentration flying and drawing teleportation scrolls and now he was so tired that he could swallow a cow.
But he was worried. After all, the war in Jade spear city will start soon and since three days had passed, there's less than three days left so he couldn't take a moment rest. He had to find a way to breakthrough as soon as possible to return to his time.
Once he entered the city, what caught his attention was a solemn tower suspended above the centre of the city. This tower gave off an Ancient era containing a trace of divine might that lingered above the city. Looking at this tower, Xuanyuan was ecstatic as this means he now has a clue to follow. This tower looked exactly like the tower of evaluation in the modern era. Or rather, the evaluation towers of the modern era were replicas of this Divine tower.
The only difference is that the Ancient tower only had four levels whereas the modern towers possessed nine. But even with lower floors, the Ancient tower was still superior in terms of height.
Xuanyuan manuevered around the streets in Divine sky city until he finally arrived at the centre where the Ancient tower was constructed. The entrance to the tower was crowded with people who gazed at the tower watching the lighting on each tower. Currently, someo ne was challenging the second level of the tower as the people watched on.
"Do you think he'll breakthrough the Imperial level this time?" One of the spectators asked talking about the man currently challenging the tower.
"He should. After all he's grown stronger since his last attempt" another replied. "But the bastard at the second level is anything but a pushover. He might be unable to breakthrough" he added.
"Starlight emperor recently received a tremendous improvement in his combat power, he might really be able to conquer the second level today" another spectator commented.
"We shall find that out"
Soon enough, the lighting on the third level glowed indicating the Challenger's successful entry into the third level.
"Wow! Starlight emperor really made it this time" the spectators cheered. It was obvious this Emperor is a famous figure in Divine sky city.
"Senior brother is lauded as a genius seen once in a century. He was bound to conquer the second level sooner or later" A young tier 3 teenager said.
"Who's that?" Someone asked in a low voice.
"Seventh sword King" another replied. "He's one of the peerless geniuses in Divine sky city currently ranked seventh in the King list" he added...
