Chapter 521: Battle of top geniuses!
Meeting Xu Muge and Xu Ying, and getting rid of Xiang Zhantian, the annoying guy who had been in their way, Xu Luo and the other two were overjoyed.
They found a safe place, chatted for a while, and then set off again.
After all, the opportunity to enter the Secret Realm was rare and time-limited, so they couldn't waste too much time. They would have more chances to gather when they returned home.
They still walked separately as before.
This was to avoid being seen together, leading to excessive speculation and unnecessary trouble.
However, this time Xu Luo and the other two walked ahead, with Xu Muge and Xu Ying following behind.
With Xu Ying's luck bonus and Xu Chen's treasure-hunting ability, they were a formidable combination.
Within a month, they continuously found several rare heavenly treasures, and each time went very smoothly.
"Oh?"
Xu Chen discovered another particularly dazzling spot. He couldn't help but speed up. Before they reached their destination, the Divine Senses of the three of them had already detected the situation there.
Several Saint Realm experts were engaged in a fierce battle, and the reason for their battle was beyond the trio's expectations.
"That's a seven-leaf profound lotus!" Xu Luo exclaimed.
The seven-leaf profound lotus was a Saint Medicine, and a relatively rare and precious one among Saint Medicines, with extremely high value and many marvelous uses.
Therefore, upon discovering this, their speed suddenly increased.
Soon they arrived at the Peak ten thousand zhang high where the seven-leaf profound lotus was located, but they did not appear directly. Instead, they chose to conceal their figures and observe the situation.
This was because besides them, other experts had arrived first, and their identities were not simple; they were the experts from Seven Kings City led by Wu Xingyun.
In addition to Wu Xingyun, there were five other Saint King experts, each with an aura as deep as an abyss and as vast as the sea.
Originally, there were seven or eight Saint Realm experts fighting fiercely here. Seeing Wu Xingyun and his group, they instinctively stopped and couldn't help but retreat a great distance, ready to escape at any moment if they saw any sign of Wu Xingyun and his group making a move.
The reason they didn't immediately escape was that they didn't want to easily give up this seven-leaf profound lotus.
Such a treasure was too rare and precious. If they could obtain one, the resources exchanged would even be enough for them to Cultivate to the Peak of the Saint King Realm.
Anyone who encountered it wouldn't be able to walk away; they wouldn't easily give up unless absolutely necessary.
Unfortunately, this seven-leaf profound lotus still needed some time to fully mature, so after Wu Xingyun arrived, he did not pick it, but merely closed his eyes and focused near the seven-leaf profound lotus.
Afterward, more Saint Realm experts arrived one after another. Seeing the seven-leaf profound lotus, they all widened their eyes, looking at it with longing.
But upon seeing Wu Xingyun nearby, they instantly frowned and stood obediently in the distance.
Wu Xingyun's identity as the direct eldest grandson of the Martial King and the number one person of the younger generation in Seven Kings City, along with his strength, was awe-inspiring.
Seeing that more and more people were arriving, Xu Luo and the other two no longer hid. Instead, they scattered around, observing the situation.
At this moment, Wu Xingyun suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the west.
"Boom!"
A huge roar echoed through the heavens and earth, and a dazzling light was particularly conspicuous. Soon, a handsome and elegant figure appeared in everyone's sight.
The arrival was Pei Haoran, the Saint Child of the Pei Family from the Ancient Family. Only a figure of this level could attract Wu Xingyun's attention.
"Brother Pei, hope you've been well."
"Brother Wu, you are as radiant as ever."
After exchanging polite greetings with clasped hands, Pei Haoran also found a place to stand.
The seven-leaf profound lotus had not yet fully matured, and so many people had gathered here. The variables were too great, so there was no need to rush.
Just as they finished speaking, Xu Muge and Xu Ying also slowly flew over from another direction.
Xu Luo had already used a Jade Slip to transmit a message telling them about the situation here. They deliberately waited a few days before rushing over.
After the two appeared, Wu Xingyun and Pei Haoran both looked over, especially Pei Haoran, whose eyes flickered with intense fighting intent.
Seeing that the seven-leaf profound lotus was about to mature, and two more formidable rivals had arrived, the situation here underwent a slight change.
Pei Haoran cupped his hands and said, "I, Pei, have heard that the Immortal Body is peerless in the world and have long wanted to witness it. I wonder if Saint Child Xu can grant me a few pointers."
The matter of Xu Muge defeating Nie Zhe had already spread. As the Saint Child of the Nie Family, Nie Zhe's excellence was evident to all. Xu Muge being able to come from behind and defeat him was truly curious.
This made people very curious about how astonishing this Immortal Body truly was.
Pei Haoran, also a top Heavenly Prodigy, even when facing an Immortal Body, wouldn't think he was inferior before fighting. This instead ignited his competitive spirit.
Xu Muge replied, "It's not about giving pointers. If you are willing, we can certainly exchange blows."
"Then I shall not hesitate," Pei Haoran exuded a strong fighting intent, like a battle maniac.
Without any further nonsense, the two immediately started fighting.
Seeing this scene, Wu Xingyun felt a little regretful. Why didn't he speak earlier? He was actually preempted by Pei Haoran. So, he could only turn his gaze towards Xu Ying.
"Fairy Xu, I also wish to request a few pointers."
Xu Ying was also an Immortal Body, so fighting her was just as good. He didn't even bother with excessive politeness, stating his intention simply and directly.
Xu Ying didn't speak, merely nodded slightly, like a Mystic Maiden from the Ninth Heaven, untouched by worldly affairs.
Thus, Wu Xingyun and Xu Ying also began to fight, their momentum no less than that of Pei Haoran and Xu Muge.
As the four top Heavenly Prodigies of the Tian Yuan World battled, the many experts present all widened their eyes, afraid of missing any brilliant moment.
Of course, they also didn't forget to retreat some distance to avoid being caught in the crossfire. This was a Saint King level battle, capable of affecting an area of tens of thousands of miles at every turn.
Many people even felt that being able to witness such a battle was worth the trip.
Xu Luo and the other two watched the battle from within the crowd. The Fourth Prince of Tianhui was also a Heavenly Prodigy of this level. The three of them combined couldn't defeat the Fourth Prince, so naturally, they couldn't defeat these four either.
However, that was just for now. They all had enough confidence to believe that they would definitely catch up to or even surpass them in the future. At the very least, they had to surpass people like the Fourth Prince and Pei Haoran and stand on the same level as Xu Muge and Xu Ying.
In fact, Pei Haoran and Wu Xingyun weren't simply wanting to witness the power of the Immortal Body. They knew that the seven-leaf profound lotus was about to mature, and the other people present posed no threat to them.
Only by dealing with Xu Muge and Xu Ying would the ownership of the seven-leaf profound lotus become clear.
