"Do you guys know each other?" Da Shan was stunned when he saw how casually Fang Yun was talking with Ouyang Qianru.
"Yes, by the way, Da Shan. Have you accepted the mission?" Fang Yun nodded slightly and asked.
"Yeah, aren't we discussing this right now? Oh right, I forgot to introduce senior brother Chang to you. Senior Brother Chang is really amazing. He is ranked 3rd among the new disciples and was directly accepted in the Inner Sect along with the four other disciples. If it wasn't for Senior Brother Chang's help, we wouldn't have dared to accept this mission. Why don't you come with me? This way, our chances of success will be higher!" Da Shan scratched his head and gave a silly smile.
Seeing Ouyang Qianru blink at Fang Yun, Chang Yan's face darkened. A trace of gloominess flashed across his eyes and soon disappeared.
"This mission only asks us to kill a Late Stage Chaos Dust Realm Beast, I can kill it with one slash!"
Chang Yan curled his lips and looked at Fang Yun with disdain, as if he was looking down on everyone.
"Senior brother Chang, it's better to bring Fang Yun along. With senior disciple Chang's strength, he shouldn't care about these points, right?" Ouyang Qianru said with a faint smile.
"Yeah, senior brother Chang, Fang Yun is also very powerful!"
Chang Yan sneered and said, "Powerful? He is not even a Chaos Dust Realm warrior, how powerful can he be? He would be a burden even if he went. But since Junior Sister Ouyang has pleaded, I'll not stop you!"
Fang Yun was too lazy to argue with someone like Chang Yan.
Unlike Fang Yun who was only one step away from becoming a Chaos Dust Realm warrior, Chang Yan was already a Mid Stage Chaos Dust Realm warrior.
Although a Mid Stage Chaos Dust Realm warrior was extremely strong, Fang Yun still did not take him seriously. He nodded at Da Shan and walked down the mountain together with him.
Their destination was Dark Moon Mountain Forest.
Although the Dark Moon Mountain wasn't very tall, it covered a very large area, and there were countless Chaos Beasts inside. As long as they didn't go too deep into the mountain, there wouldn't be any danger, because there had never been a Chaos Spirit Realm Beast in the outer region of this mountain.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Fang Yun looked at the endless lush forest that covered the surroundings.
The mountain breeze blew, and the green leaves drifted. They were like the green waves of the sea, sweeping away layers of ripples.
The forest was dark and damp, and layers of leaves covered the sky. Very little sunlight could fall in large numbers.
"It is a Flaming Battle Deer, a Chaos Beast at the Third Stage of Chaotic Transformation! Leave this beast to me!"
Not long after they entered the Dark Moon Mountain, they encountered a Chaos Beast. Without saying another word, Da Shan picked up a sledgehammer and rushed forward.
The Flaming Battle Deer glared at Da Shan. Its front kick slowly drew a line across the ground. Its eyes suddenly turned blood red, as if there was a flame burning in its eyes.
The deer lowered its head, and two forked antlers fiercely rushed forward. It was very fast. The fallen leaves on the ground were lifted up, like a flying tail behind it.
"Good timing. Look at my Violent Thunder Strike!"
The sledgehammer was very big, even bigger than Da Shan's head. But in Da Shan's hands, it was as light as a feather, and its speed was very fast.
As the hammer fell, there was a faint sound of muffled thunder. The surrounding leaves flew into the air, bringing with them layers of wind as they fiercely smashed toward the Flaming Battle Deer.
"Boom!"
With a loud sound, the flying leaves turned into powder, and a few cracks spread out under his feet.
"Again!" Da Shan took three or four steps back in a row. He swung his numb arm, raised his hammer, and rushed forward again.
.....
It has been half a month since Ye Xiao left Crystal City. And he was only a few hundred miles away from the Floating Cloud City.
Right now, he entered a forest that surrounded the Dark Moon Mountain. He entered the Dark Moon Mountain Forest from the direct opposite side of Fang Yun and others.
After crossing the Dark Moon Mountain Forest, he will be able to step foot in the Floating Cloud City established by the Floating Cloud Sect.
Not long after Ye Xiao entered the Dark Moon Mountain Forest, Phantom suddenly stopped. It sniffed loudly before looking in a certain direction. Although it could see nothing, it could feel something attractive.
"What happened?" Ye Xiao frowned. It was the first time he saw Phantom behaving like this.
Phantom replied, "I could feel the existence of an exalted one... Or at least the blood of an exalted one. There is someone in far inside this forest who has the blood of an exalted one running in his body."
"Exalted one, what do you mean?" This was the first time Ye Xiao heard the term <Exalted One>, he could not understand and asked.
"Just like humans, we beasts are also ranked from upper class to lower. The higher one's bloodline, the more powerful a Chaos Beast could grow. Even if it is a newborn beast, if he is born with the highest grade bloodline such as dragon bloodline, then a beast like me can feel the bloodline pressure just from that newborn baby's presence. Even if we want to, we won't be able to take action against the newborn baby and will be immediately suppressed, forced to lower our heads!"
"Exalted Ones that I talked about are the highest-ranked beasts. They are just like the rumored seven most powerful forces of Chaos who are controlling the seven Forbidden Lands. Just their presence alone is enough to shake entire Lands. If even one of them came to the Land of Morning Stars and reveal where they come from, the entire Land of Morning Stars will be ready to become their slave."
"Exalted one is such an existence. We could never defy them even if we want to. They should not exist in the Land of Morning Stars, because their presence alone could shake this entire Land. It is because of this I'm guessing it is someone who has the blood of an Exalted One running in their body. It is very likely the descendent of an exalted one. Although his presence seemed to have been forcefully erased, I can still feel him. Let's not take this route. We should not cross our path with the descendent of the Exalted One."
Phantom's explanation immediately attracted Ye Xiao's attention. The more he heard, the more he become curious. In the end, he declined Phantom's suggestion and spoke, "No, let's continue walking our path. I also want to see who this descendent of Exalted One actually is. And since an Exalted One should not exist in the Land of Morning Stars, where did this one come from? How did it appear in the Land of Morning Stars?"
"Don't! I really don't dare. The closer I'll get, the stronger the bloodline suppression will become. In the end, I will become completely helpless!"
Phantom immediately tried to reason with Ye Xiao, but Ye Xiao did not agree. And because of the connection with Ye Xiao, Phantom had to follow Ye Xiao inside the Dark Moon Mountain Forest.
Ye Xiao was really curious about this Exalted thing. He also suspected something and asked, "Didn't you say that the presence of the Exalted One has been erased by someone, then how could you still be suppressed?"
Phantom took a deep breath and revealed its worry, saying, "Although the presence of Exalted One has been erased from the blood of this descendent, it doesn't mean it does not exist. The blood of the Exalted One still flows in that beast's body. It is just that a special method is used to seal that blood. Weaker beasts could not feel the presence of this bloodline, but I could feel it. Although I should not be able to, it seems the "gift" that terrible woman (Yu Rong) gave me has altered my body, blood, and soul. This has caused me able to sense this bloodline of the Exalted One!"
This was the first time Phantom told Ye Xiao that its body, blood, and soul were altered. Ye Xiao could not help but raise his eyes.
He suddenly looked at Phantom and said in a deep voice, "Explain everything!"
His voice suddenly became cold, causing Phantom to shiver.
Ye Xiao could not help but treat this matter very seriously. Nothing about people with the surname Yu could be dealt with carelessness, and it is mainly true for Yu Rong.
As long as Yu Rong is involved, Ye Xiao will treat the matter with extreme caution.
