Chapter 1620: The Hunters
In the starry river outside the main realm of the Floragrims in the Spirit World.
A spot of light that was about the size of a grain of rice swelled into a dazzling passage of light.
WHOOSH!
Four well-dressed beings with beautiful faces flew out of it one by one.
All of them had blue hair and eyes like blue crystals. Strands of light wreathed the edges of their robes like sharp spatial blades.
Silver Domain Snakes could be seen slithering within the open passage, trying to cross over.
The man taking the lead squinted, looked around and said, “It’s the Spirit World. She must have escaped here. Let’s scatter and search the realms one by one.”
The other three nodded. “Alright.”
Layers of spatial ripples manifested out of nowhere in the starry river.
The four Voidspirits, who had come from the space disruption zone, activated their bloodline magics, and the vast Spirit World unfolded in front of their eyes like picture scrolls.
Then, they started shuttling among the different scrolls by relying on their space bloodline.
As they did, spatial rifts appeared in the Demon realms, the Nether Realm, the main realm of the Floragrims, and the realms of the Ancientspirits before suddenly disappearing shortly afterwards.
The Spirit World was vast, but in the eyes of the Voidspirits, no matter how vast it was, as long as they used their space bloodline, they could go wherever they wanted in a moment.
As immense as the starry river was, they feared no one except for those who were proficient in spatial power, and a few experts who were able to freeze space.
At worst, they could just retreat into different layers of space.
In the Nether Realm, a female Voidspirit flew out of a spatial rift. “I can’t believe that Grand Monarch Hell Demon has conquered the remaining Demons in the six Demon realms. Isn’t Grand Monarch Hell Demon supposed to be fighting in the Doomed Star Sea? Why did he suddenly come here?
“And such strange changes have happened to the Nether Realm! Five realms surround the Nether Realm, and are connected to each other with rivers of Nether Qi!”
Just then, the evil god of fear sensed their presence and growled in anger. “Voidspirits!”
In the depths of the realm where he hid, surging Nether Qi suddenly condensed into a cyan spear.
Filled with the power of fear, the spear burst forth with glorious light, along with strands of flesh aura that contained a variety of soul wonders.
With the emergence of the spear, the soul power that could wipe out all the living beings unexpectedly formed a net.
Even space itself was almost bound by the soul net.
The female Voidspirit who had flown out of the brilliant spatial rift turned pale with fright and screamed, “Grand Monarch Fear of the Netherspirits of the Void World! We’re just looking for a hybrid of my race. We have no intention of disturbing your quiet cultivation, senior! We didn’t expect you to be in the withering Spirit World!”
With that, before the evil god of fear could respond, she retreated into the spatial rift.
She knew that if she waited even a little longer, she would be unable to escape when the net completely enshrouded her.
The evil god of fear, who had been known as Grand Monarch Fear of the Netherspirits, had once participated in their hunting of the Voidspirits. In their race, there were detailed records of his appearance, aura, and even the soul magics that he had cultivated.
As she hurried to escape, she also sensed terrifying soul power fluctuations from another realm surrounding the Nether Realm, which made her even more uneasy. “Grand Monarch Fear, and another... who seems to be Grand Monarch Despair?”
...
In the Realm of Middle Continent.
Nie Tian’s star power sub-soul broke free from his true form, but was still controlling his star domain.
His body was controlling his flesh aura sea.
Released by him, his vivacious flesh aura sea seemed to be capable of robbing all those in his surroundings of their life force.
However, almost all those present were humans with weak flesh auras, except for Grand Monarch Primal Wood, whose bloodline was closely related to Nie Tian’s. Therefore, he was exempted from the influence of his flesh aura sea.
FIZZ!
Thousands of thin gossamer-like blood lights suddenly flew out of Nie Tian’s flesh aura sea into Pei Qiqi’s body, and started infiltrating her closed acupoints like lightning.
Each of her acupoints contained spatial power and magics, forming spatial barriers that prevented Nie Tian’s flesh aura from penetrating them.
It felt similar to how Nie Tian had recently attempted to pass through the layer of energies underground in the Realm of Middle Continent with various powers, but was blocked by the thick layer of energies.
Pei Qiqi stood, electric sparks sputtering from her body.
The sputtering electric sparks were the result of Nie Tian’s flesh power colliding with the power that was sealing her acupoints.
“Hmm!” Holding the Spirit Scepter, his main soul that was numerous miles into the earth suddenly perceived a soul message that the evil god of fear conveyed, and immediately knew that the Voidspirits had appeared in the Spirit World, and were traveling from place to place.
Without giving it a second thought, he knew at once that the Voidspirits were coming for Pei Qiqi.
In the starry river outside the Realm of Middle Continent, space split open, and four Voidspirits showed up one after another.
“Nie Tian! They’re here!” shouted both Zhao Shanling and Ji Yuanquan.
Having been inspired by the Tree of Life, Nie Tian had asked Zhao Shanling and Ji Yuanquan to join hands to disrupt the space in the Realm of Middle Continent in a bid to at least stop the Voidspirits from entering directly.
If they couldn’t enter the Realm of Middle Continent, they would have no chance of perceiving the mysteries underground.
“I didn’t expect them to come so fast. Besides, there are four of them,” Nie Tian said.
He unhurriedly mustered more drops of Blood Essence to continuously impact the spatial barriers that sealed Pei Qiqi’s flesh aura. “None of the four are late tenth grade grand monarchs. The Voidspirits are the best at escaping among all species in the three worlds. Their actual fighting strength can’t overwhelm experts of other species that are at their grade.”
“I see,” Yin Xingtian said, nodding. Then, he charged into the sky, waving his Heavenbreaker, like a meteor rising into the starry river, followed by Yu Suying, Master Blood Spirit, and Dong Li.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Streaks of terrifying light suddenly charged out of the Realm of Middle Continent, making the four Voidspirit visitors instantly freeze in shock.
“How come there are God domain humans in the Realm of Middle Continent in the Spirit World?” the man taking the lead thought inwardly as his expression changed dramatically.
His knowledge of the Spirit World and the Realm of Middle Continent was from far back in time.
He didn’t know much about the great changes that had recently taken place in the Spirit World and Mortal World.
Because the Voidspirits had a small population to begin with, and had recently been consumed by their civil strife, they hadn’t devoted their energies to matters that didn’t concern them.
“Who are you?” the man taking the lead asked.
He hesitated, and then suddenly looked at Ji Yuanquan, “Are... are you a disciple of the Void Spirit Society? So is the hybrid of our race in the Realm of Middle Continent now?”
“Miss Pei, you mean?” Ji Yuanquan asked.
“Yes!”
“She’s in the Realm of Middle Continent,” Ji Yuanquan replied.
He looked at the four Voidspirits carefully and said to Dong Li, “Only one of them is a middle tenth grade grand monarch. The other three should be early tenth grade grand monarchs. They have weak fighting strength. It must be because Miss Pei is injured and her acupoints have been sealed. Otherwise...”
Suddenly, Pei Qiqi’s voice cut through space and rang among them. “Don’t kill them. Catch them alive if you can. Or just let them go. They’re under orders. It isn’t them who injured me. I’d promised my father I’d show mercy to my clansmen, no matter what.”
