Chapter 873: Battle for the Map Fragment (Three)

The remaining two palm strikes from the Hao family Saint King fell almost at the same time, at the same place . After them, any auras from the bottomless pit had disappeared completely . No one knew if any of the hundred Saint Rulers or that Saint King were still alive anymore .

A Saint Ruler of the Seventh Heavenly Layer could heavily wound or directly kill a Saint King of the First or Second Heavenly Layer when they used a Saint Tier Battle Skill . The caster this time was a Saint King, not a Saint Ruler, so the power of the technique was naturally much greater . Even if they were not dead, they definitely would have sustained unimaginable injuries .

Jad and the five Saint Kings that had traveled over a hundred kilometers as they fought noticed this situation . Each and every one of them was shocked, revealing expressions of astoundment . All of them, even the strongest, Jad, had not grasped a Tian Level Saint Technique . The Saint King of the Hao family was far below them yet he already knew a powerful Tian Level Saint Technique . It brought disbelief to them .

Tian Level Saint Techniques were not easy to comprehend . They had all attempted the comprehension at their respective factions but they had all failed with no exception . The profoundness and complexity of Tian Level Saint Techniques made it hard for even Saint Kings to comprehend .

“Hahahaha, I’d like to see if you still have the power to take the map fragment . ” Jad laughed aloud . The Saint King’s grasp of the Tian Level Saint Technique greatly strengthened his side, which made him beam with joy . Their ability to protect the Octoterra Map fragment had just greatly increased .

The Saint King of the Hao family sneered as he looked at the bottomless pit created from his three palm strikes . “A heavy price will definitely be paid when you try to take the things of my Hao family . ” He then turned towards Jad and said, “Senior Jad, allow me to lend a hand of support . ”

“No need . I’ll keep them busy, you leave quickly with the map fragment,” Jad replied loudly .

The Saint King of the Hao family hesitated slightly, before he clasped his hands at Jad . “I shall be taking my leave first then, senior Jad . I shall be repaying senior’s kindness some other day . ” With that, he no longer deliberated and flew off into the distance with the remaining experts of the Hao family .

Something suddenly happened . A blood-red light flashed past, silently sweeping past the Saint King .

The light had appeared with no warning . It caught the Saint King off-guard and directly sliced off one of his fingers .

The pain caused the Saint King to groan in pain . However, as soon as he saw the lost finger, his expression changed abruptly . The finger was the one he wore his Space Ring on .

The Saint King of the Hao family burst into rage . Like an angered lion, he immediately roared out furiously and followed the falling finger . He wanted to retrieve the Space Ring .

The blood-red light appeared once again, quickly snatching up the Space Ring before he could get it back . It then flew off .

“Where do you think you’re going? Stay!” The Saint King’s eyes became bloodshot and he chased after the red light in a mad manner .

“The map fragment has been taken by someone,” cried out Daemon Lord Yun Feng who was battling Jad . He could no longer care and directly abandoned the battle and chased after the red light .

The other Saint Kings also stopped their fight, casting their fastest movement techniques to chase after it .

The red light only stopped after quickly traversing a hundred kilometers . A hunchbacked old woman appeared there soon after and caught the finger with one hand . She immediately removed the Space Ring from it, before tossing the finger far away . Smiling evilly, she croaked, “The map fragment is mine . Don’t even think about laying your hands on it . ” Before she had even finished her sentence, she moved slightly, shooting off into the distance as a blur .

“Stay!” Jad roared and directly hurled a punch toward her . A huge fist rushed at the old woman with surging ripples of energy .

The old woman was also of the 16th Star but she was only a Fifth Heavenly Layer Saint King . She was a fraction weaker than Jad . She quickly turned around, pushing out violently with her shriveled hands which collided with the fist of energy .

With a violent rumble, wild ripples of energy dissipated through the surroundings . Not only did Jad’s punch fail to slow her down, she used the knockback to speed up her escape .

A white, soft hand appeared out of nowhere at this very moment, right in front of the old woman . It landed quickly but gently on the old woman’s chest .

She had just blocked Jad’s strike so she took the palm strike forcefully after being caught off guard .

Spurt! A mouthful of blood surged from the old woman’s mouth and she immediately paled . The strike was extremely powerful, already wounding her heavily after she had failed to block it .

“The map fragment is now mine . ” A crisp and spirited voice echoed in the old woman’s ears . A devastatingly charming and graceful woman in an azure dress appeared before her . The Space Ring that was originally in the old woman’s hands had already fallen into hers .

She was also a Saint King, with strength equal to the old woman . She too was a Saint King of the Fifth Heavenly Layer but her aura was different from the Sea race’s .

“You’re a human expert,” the old woman groaned as she eyed the lady .

“I am Qing Yixuan . I thank you for gifting me this map fragment . ” The lady gave out a crisp giggle . Her smile was extremely pretty like the blooming of a hundred flowers . Afterward, she turned into an azure flash of light and disappeared . She had already left and fled into the distance .

The old woman coughed up another mouthful of blood and stared viciously at the lady’s fleeing figure . However, she did not give chase .

“Never did I think that even Qing Yixuan of the eight great human experts would join in as well and even ambush and heavily injure me . What a b*tch!” The old woman said with an extremely resentful voice . There were very few people who did not know the name Qing Yixuan in the sea realm .

Magical beasts and humans were also present in the sea realm outside of the native Sea race . However, there were extremely few of them . All of them had entered the realm as Saint Rulers with no exception, before cultivating their way to Saint King here .  

This was why foreign Saint Kings were able to exist in the sea realm . There were eight most well-known Saint Kings among these humans, all of which who had reached the 16th Star as Seasoul Warriors and at least the Fifth Heavenly Layer . Qing Yixuan happened to be one of them .

Behind, Jad and the other five Saint Kings all shot past the old woman as blurs, tailing Qing Yixuan .

“Everyone, please calm down,” boomed an old voice from the surroundings . Two white-robed, ruddy old men suddenly appeared, blocking their paths . The two of them were also part of the eight human experts .

“Death to those who block my way!” Jad roared . He became embroiled in a battle with one of the humans while the other person faced up against the other five Saint Kings all by himself . Even though they were on the losing side, they only aimed to delay the six Saint Kings, not to fight them in a battle to the death .

Only after fleeing several kilometers did Qing Yixuan finally stop with the Space Ring . She turned back and gave out a long sigh . She muttered to herself, “Fortunately I invited two helpers or it’ll be impossible to shake them off . I may have paid quite the price but everything will be worth it as long as I’ve obtained the map fragment . ”

Qing Yixuan’s eyes suddenly froze as she spoke . She turned to her side suddenly, only to see two young men who seemed to be in their twenties fly over . One of them wore tight, blue robes and had a handsome appearance, radiating with a refined aura . The other wore golden robes and had a head full of golden hair . His expression bore an unconcealed pride .

It was Jian Chen and Nubis .

“A human and a magical beast,” muttered Qing Yixuan . She could tell what the two of them were with a single glance .

Jian Chen and Nubis directly traveled for Qing Yixuan, before coming to a stop a hundred meters away from her . Jian Chen gazed at her calmlyand spoke with his hands clasped, “Junior is Yang Yutian . Senior must have taken part in the fight for the Octoterra Map fragment . ”

Qing Yixuan’s face immediately twitched when she heard them mention the map fragment . Her beautiful eyes turned cold and glared at the two of them . “Are you trying to take the map fragment away from me? Brat, I’ll ignore your disrespectful attitude from before since we’re of the same race . If you’re smart, leave immediately . Otherwise, don’t be able to blame me for what I do next . ”

Jian Chen smiled as normal . “Senior is mistaken . Junior has purposefully come forward to ask senior if the Space Ring really does contain the map fragment or not . ”

Qing Yixuan seemed to realize something with that . Her eyes flashed with urgency and she quickly checked the Space Ring . Her expression immediately changed greatly, angrily tossing the Space Ring into the distance . She cried out, “It’s actually empty!”

“Senior has already obtained the Space Ring for some time . It may be empty but the people behind definitely won’t believe senior . They’ll definitely think senior has hidden the map fragment . Not only has senior failed to obtain it, senior has to bear the burden of being hunted down by all those Sea race experts . Senior’s current circumstances really seems miserable . ” smiled Jian Chen .
