Chapter 220: Chapter 219 Awaiting a Windfall (Subscribe, please) Boom! At this moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly crashed down, directly striking him. He hastily raised a defense spiritual light, but it was shattered by the lightning almost instantly. Boom! Then came the second, the third... Countless bolts of lightning fell like a torrential river. "Ah..." The Di Family Cultivator screamed miserably, then was engulfed by the endless lightning. Soon, the lightning ceased, the dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the scorching sunlight glinted down. "Soul Energy +9752." Without any hesitation, Bai Ziyue flickered out like green smoke, instantly reaching the scorched body of the Di Family Cultivator and quickly searching it. "The Immortal Master is dead!" An alarmed cry echoed across the battlefield. At that moment, those from the Nine Seals Sect, whose morale had already plummeted from their Sect Leader’s death, completely lost the will to resist and rapidly crumbled. Many fled away from the Nine Seals Sect’s Mountain Gate, while others directly returned to the sect and began to flee hastily. "Kill! Leave no one alive!" This was an extermination battle; one of the two forces had to be utterly annihilated. With a fierce shout, Jiangg Tao charged towards the Grand Elder of the Nine Seals Sect, Hu Yuntian, who was already engaged in battle with Sunburst Gang Elder Kong Mingyu. Kong Mingyu was strong, a Second-class Expert having cleared two Mystic Meridians, but he was no match for Hu Yuntian, who had cleared six Mystic Meridians. In their combat, Kong Mingyu was completely outmatched, teetering on the brink of death, extremely perilous. Plop! With a dull thud, the Grand Elder of Sunburst Gang, Xu Changchun, smashed the head of a Hall Master of the Nine Seals Sect with his twin heavy hammers. In an instant, the Hall Master’s skull cracked open, red and white matter spraying out. Without a sound, the Hall Master of the Nine Seals Sect was dead. Just then, a twelve-foot-long spear, like a serpent, thrust silently, suddenly exploding with the ferocity of a flood dragon just before striking a Hall Master of the Foreign Affairs Hall of the Sunburst Gang. Subtly, a sound akin to a dragon’s roar could be heard. Snake Dragon Eight Strikes! The Hall Master of the Foreign Affairs Hall changed color, his long spear gleaming like silver, but at the moment it touched the twelve-foot spear, it was pushed aside. The spear then shot forth like a serpent, piercing his chest in an instant. "Kill!" At the foot of Yuhua Mountain, everything descended into chaos, the sounds of battle resounding in every corner. The once majestic Mountain Gate of the Nine Seals Sect had now become a battlefield, blood staining the ground, broken blades and remnants of soldiers everywhere, a scene of utter devastation. Countless figures fought fiercely, their expressions savage like wolves, their eyes gleaming with bloodlust, sneering wickedly as they charged at their opponents. "Let’s go, whether we get rich or not depends on this time." At the mountain’s foot, a number of figures rushed toward the top of Nine Seals Sect Mountain from a direction far from the battlefield. Their eyes were filled with excitement, as if dreaming of something. These figures were idle Martial Artists who had been watching from the battlefield’s perimeter. The Nine Seals Sect had stood for a hundred years, their wealth tremendous through generations. Especially their Martial Arts Secret Manuals and Inner Power Heart Methods, which were absolute temptations for countless Martial Artists without legacy. Led by one or two Second-class Experts and four or five Third-class Experts, a multitude of Martial Artists rushed up Yuhua Mountain. ... "Sixty-six forbidden High-level Dharma Artifact Green Light Sword, Sixty-nine forbidden Defensive Dharma Artifact Cyan Light Spirit-Avoiding Carpet, Forty-five forbidden Dharma Artifact copper bell... It’s a pity that these Magics are somewhat damaged by the Thunder Pill’s furious strikes. Some Spirit Stones and other items were directly shattered to pieces." Bai Ziyue found some items from the Di Family Cultivator’s body, showing a look of regret. After all, items that could withstand lightning attacks without damage were very few. "However, this golden paper at least remains intact. With this, the number of golden papers I have reaches ten. Only two more are left out there..." Bai Ziyue retrieved a piece of hard golden paper from the Di Family Cultivator’s chest, a small smile forming in his heart. This single piece of golden paper was enough to offset the number of Transformation Talismans used to cast Thunderfall Skills earlier. "Next..." Bai Ziyue’s gaze turned towards the Nine Seals Sect’s Mountain Gate, the top of Yuhua Mountain. In his perception, the eleventh piece of golden paper had been lying idle at the mountain’s peak. Without further hesitation, Bai Ziyue followed the Sunburst Gang disciples and charged forward. The Soul Energy count on his Attribute Panel also rapidly increased with the battle between the two forces. +642, +455, +7624, +228, +4924... The deaths of Martial Artists of varying levels caused Bai Ziyue’s Soul Energy to fluctuate tremendously. ... Time passed, the sounds of battle gradually started to thin out. To maximize his Soul Energy, Bai Ziyue continued to wander amidst the intense battlefield. Even though he hadn’t displayed techniques above the Inner Power Realm, perhaps due to the overwhelming scene of him activating talismans while besieging that Di Family Cultivator, no Martial Artist above the Inner Power Realm dared to blindly seek him out. Unknowingly, Bai Ziyue had already followed a group of Sunburst Gang disciples and charged into the Nine Seals Sect’s Mountain Gate. Upon reaching here, the scene immediately became even more chaotic. Countless people rushed in and out of various rooms and pavilions, plundering treasures; the robbing, fighting, and killing here were even more intense than those at the foot of the mountain. Everywhere, there were shouts of fighting and killing, various miserable howls, making this place seem like a living hell. Aside from the people of the Sunburst Gang and Nine Seals Sect, there were many rogue Martial Artists, wildly plundering treasures. Some of these skilled practitioners had extraordinary abilities and immense strength, their actions swift and ruthless, decisive and merciless. Even when facing Sunburst Gang disciples, it was the same. Within Wujiang County, as the Nine Seals Sect faced destruction, the Sunburst Gang was destined to rise, dominating the region. However, not all these Martial Artists were from Wujiang County. Some were merely travelers passing by, some were from nearby counties, and many were bandits and pirates who had no fear of offending the Sunburst Gang. What they valued more were the treasures, Martial Arts secret manuals, and various weapons. Bai Ziyue beheaded a foolish Martial Artist trying to fish in troubled waters, deftly flicking his backpack and, while no one noticed, his Spiritual Power surged. The backpack immediately disappeared, stored into his Storage Bag. "Soul Energy: 215410." Glancing at the amount of Soul Energy, Bai Ziyue’s face showed a satisfied smile. Even though some were too far away to increase his Soul Energy, two hundred and ten thousand points were already sufficient for him. It was enough to significantly enhance his strength once again. "Next, it’s time to consider finding that eleventh piece of golden paper." To Bai Ziyue, the most crucial aspect was undoubtedly the Soul Energy Points, as it determined how quickly he could boost his strength. With ample Soul Energy Points, his mind naturally turned to other matters, like collecting the twelve golden papers. Reaching into his chest, a piece of golden paper immediately appeared in his hand. A gentle sweep of his Spiritual Power instantly triggered the tracking mark on it. Buzz! The location of the eleventh piece of golden paper immediately surfaced in his mind. ... A treasure vault door embedded deep into the stone wall of Yuhua Mountain was wide open, with more than a dozen corpses lying scattered on the ground. These bodies, wearing Nine Seals Sect clothing, judging by the badges falling from them, actually had high statuses within the sect. One of them even belonged to an Elder-level figure. However, at this moment, they all lay lifelessly on the ground. Inside the treasure vault, there were seven or eight burly men wielding Ice Blades, quickly rummaging through treasures and soon hauling various valuables out. On the other hand, the piles of silver and such were not of much interest to them. No wonder, they were simply too heavy. "Hurry, that’s enough; we can’t take any more. Before the Sunburst Gang members completely swarm in, let’s get out quickly." The leading man shouted, then chose two large boxes and left without any hesitation. The others, feeling the urgency, each grabbed a treasure-laden box or huge backpack and, after one reluctant glance at the remaining treasures, swiftly left. They had barely stepped out of the vault when the lead Martial Artist’s expression changed. From afar, a figure approached leisurely. "Sunburst Gang’s Gang Leader, Celestial Blade Jiangg Tao." He cursed under his breath, then saw Jiangg Tao’s figure suddenly speed up, swiftly heading their way. He quickly shouted, "Scatter and flee, take what you can." He immediately chose a direction and fled. The others, seasoned fighters in the Jianghu, with no need for further instructions, scattered like birds, fleeing in various directions. "Yanbei Thirteen Eagles? Daring to snatch food from us Sunburst Gang? Chase them!" Jiangg Tao muttered, then dashed towards the lead man. Soon, shadows emerged behind him, pursuing in different directions, including Elder and Squad Leader level figures. "Hmm? Coincidentally, the person holding the golden paper is heading right towards me? This saves me some trouble, just what I needed, a perfect ambush spot." Noticing the golden paper moving rapidly in his direction, Bai Ziyue raised an eyebrow and prepared to wait under a giant tree that could hardly be hugged by three people.
