After capturing a flag, Chen Yu sped towards the great peak where Qing Sha was located. Her speed at ascending the peak was faster than Zhu Ling Yuan’s, which is why Chen Yu chose to target her first.
Qing Sha shouted in panic.
The two disciples of Azure Dragon Divine Wood who had just arrived there immediately rushed forward.
"Zhu Zhengpeng, stop him quickly!"
Zhu Ling Yuan, who was climbing the mountain, called out to a disciple below from the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest.
Those who could arrive here before others were the elites among them.
This Zhu Zhengpeng was the genius of the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest, second only to Zhu Ling Yuan, with cultivation at the peak of Late Stage Star Condensation.
Originally, Zhu Zhengpeng planned to compete with Zhu Ling Yuan and prove himself as the most outstanding newcomer in the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest, but everyone outside observed the situation here. If he did not stop Chen Yu and instead opposed Zhu Ling Yuan, he would certainly face criticism and punishment from the upper levels.
A crimson curved blade appeared in Zhu Zhengpeng’s hand, like a blood-red crescent moon, its fiery brilliance shining in all directions.
"Don’t think you can pass!"
On the other side, two disciples of Azure Dragon Divine Wood, in the Late Stage Star Condensation, also took action.
From the earth and void, thick vines spread out, seemingly weaving into a network of heaven and earth.
Suddenly, Chen Yu was surrounded again.
This time, his enemies had a high overall standard and were elites among the new disciples of the top forces, making it difficult for Chen Yu to solve with fists alone.
Of course, using certain tactics, he didn’t need to fear the combined effort of these three.
But doing so would make his goal difficult to achieve.
By the time he defeated these three, Qing Sha would have already taken the flag, possibly even Zhu Ling Yuan would have succeeded.
"I won’t keep you company, my target is this beauty!"
Chen Yu grinned, his gaze fixed on Qing Sha.
The star acupoints on his body radiated brilliantly, enveloping Chen Yu.
In an instant, his form was swallowed by white light, illuminating the surroundings.
Chen Yu’s 720 star acupoints burst out in a short time, transforming him into an invincible star, dazzlingly bright.
In the Meteor Star state, Chen Yu unleashed his full strength and speed, fast as lightning.
He darted out like a shooting star, and the three blocking him were suddenly frightened in their hearts.
Originally, the three thought they could stop Chen Yu with their combined strength, but Chen Yu, utilizing some unknown secret technique, seemed completely transformed—so powerful he couldn’t be gazed at directly, unstoppable, with an increased speed.
The two disciples of Azure Dragon Divine Wood simultaneously activated their spells.
Numerous thick vines twisted like spiritual snakes but couldn’t catch up to Chen Yu’s figure.
In the void ahead of Chen Yu, a layer of green mist suddenly extended into a giant blossom.
The blossom abruptly split open, transforming into a menacing giant mouth, filled with sharp teeth, ready to devour Chen Yu.
Without blinking, Chen Yu charged straight into the giant mouth, piercing through the blossom.
A crimson curved blade appeared behind him, accompanied by blazing flames, flying rapidly. .
Chen Yu promptly turned and struck with his hand, clashing with Zhu Zhengpeng’s mysterious weapon.
A crisp sound echoed, red and white light shining, as Zhu Zhengpeng’s crimson curved blade was knocked away by Chen Yu’s palm.
Zhu Zhengpeng and the others watched as Chen Yu vanished from view, their faces filled with shock and bewilderment.
Despite combining their strength, Chen Yu easily broke through, severely impacting their pride as geniuses within the Demon Race forces!
"Almost there, about to reach the summit!"
Qing Sha looked up at the flag atop the mountain, bearing the Azure Dragon Divine Wood’s emblem, glowing brightly.
This flag seemed to be the core of the entire mountain formation, once pulled out, the formation would cease to function.
Yet suddenly, a resounding roar emanated from the foot of the mountain.
Qing Sha swept her spiritual sense and her expression changed: "Chen Yu!"
Weren’t three top powerhouses stopping Chen Yu? How could he appear at the mountain’s base?
Qing Sha couldn’t help but glance at Zhu Zhengpeng and the others, finding them dumbfounded, like fools.
"Damn it, what happened? Why didn’t these three idiots stop Chen Yu?"
Qing Sha cursed quietly.
In reality, those three had intercepted Chen Yu, but were instantly overwhelmed.
"But Chen Yu, you’re late, I’ll reach the summit within five breaths!"
Qing Sha looked towards the mountain top.
But as her words finished, she saw Chen Yu swiftly approaching from the mountain’s base.
All obstacles along the way were reduced to ruin by Chen Yu, transformed into a star, as if nothing could stop him in the slightest!
Qing Sha was a bit dumbfounded.
She believed the trials here were a piece of cake for her, easily surpassing Zhu Ling Yuan who arrived first.
But Chen Yu’s approach was simple and brutal, crushing everything with absolute force, his speed several times hers!
Qing Sha trembled slightly, feeling an intense sense of urgency.
Chen Yu was catching up!
She continually activated her spells, with six wooden dragons around her either blocking and entwining or smashing through obstacles to open a path for her.
Under the immense pressure from Chen Yu, Qing Sha tapped into her potential, slightly increasing her speed, heading straight for the top.
Qing Sha watched the summit grow nearer and nearer.
Qing Sha arrived at the mountaintop, her face filled with joy, reaching for the flag.
"This thing is mine, get lost!"
At this moment, a thunderous roar came from behind, a violent wave of air making Qing Sha’s clothes and hair dance wildly.
Qing Sha saw Chen Yu approaching like lightning, his speed incredibly fast, his momentum earth-shattering.
"Nine Spirit Wood Net!"
Qing Sha immediately performed a spell, nine dark green stout vines emerged from the ground behind her, intertwining and weaving into a large net, with an Azure Dragon pattern appearing on it.
The Nine Spirit Wood Net can both trap and defend, especially against fierce attacks, which is exactly what the Nine Spirit Wood Net is adept at countering.
Chen Yu punched the Nine Spirit Wood Net, as if trapped in a deep sea whirlpool, his power continuously dispersed.
The special resilient vines broke and immediately healed at the moment of fracture.
Although the Azure Dragon Holy Clan is not adept at attacking, being one of the Demon Race’s Holy Clans, they wouldn’t be simple; their defense, trapping, and survival methods are top-notch.
Chen Yu shouted lowly, blood-red flames burst from his fist, instantly spreading across the entire Nine Spirit Wood Net.
A loud explosion sounded, and the Nine Spirit Wood Net was shattered by Chen Yu’s punch.
"This is... Innate Spiritual Flame!"
Qing Sha was greatly shocked, then her eyes widened, watching the rapidly approaching Chen Yu, she was caught off guard and at a loss for what to do.
In his rush to seize the flag, Chen Yu charged forward at maximum speed, unable to stop himself, he crashed into Qing Sha after breaking through the Nine Spirit Wood Net.
Qing Sha was knocked flying by Chen Yu from the front.
At that moment, Chen Yu felt the other person’s figure was indeed ample.
Qing Sha, filled with both shame and anger, had her first ’intense’ close contact with a man, resulting in her being knocked away.
She only felt pain all over, as if her body was falling apart, spitting blood from her mouth.
Chen Yu ignored Qing Sha, took the flag.
With two flags in hand, even if the remaining two flags were obtained by a certain power, the Heavenly Martial Sect, which Chen Yu represents, would still be number one.
But Chen Yu wasn’t planning to stop there.
His gaze instantly fell on Zhu Ling Yuan.
This person is the first in the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest, those blockers before must have been under his command.
Plus, Zhu Cangyan’s unprovoked provocation in recent days, Chen Yu harbors no goodwill toward the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest.
"Chen Yu, you already have two flags, being first this time is your Heavenly Martial Sect, there’s no need to become enemies with the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest, right!"
Zhu Ling Yuan felt the hostility coming from Chen Yu, involuntarily shuddered, a sense of fear arose.
This made him feel humiliated, that he would fear because of a Mid-stage Star Condensation Peak.
Chen Yu didn’t speak, the Falling Star state lifted, quietly watching Zhu Ling Yuan.
"It seems he’s given up."
Zhu Ling Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, after three breaths, he successfully reached the summit and obtained the flag.
"Good, now the second place is mine, as for the first place, I can only rely on the power of the Azure Dragon Divine Wood to obtain it."
Zhu Ling Yuan was plotting in his heart.
Chen Yu’s individual combat power is indeed strong, but with myself and Qing Sha, there’s a chance to win, especially with the help of others, there’s still hope to seize first from Chen Yu.
However, Zhu Ling Yuan suddenly felt a sense of oppression.
He saw Chen Yu at the top of another peak, when did he start flying towards him!
Chen Yu hadn’t given up on the flag, just that Zhu Ling Yuan was already close to the top, making it hard for him to catch up, so it was more convenient to wait until the other party got the flag before intervening.
His hands changed, the aura of the Holy Beast emanated.
White Tiger Sacred Claw! Crack Star Claw!
Chen Yu instantly launched an attack, shimmering metallic beast claws tearing five golden white twisted light marks, like five thunder whips lashing at Zhu Ling Yuan.
Zhu Ling Yuan was bound by spatial power, knowing he couldn’t dodge this strike, immediately activated his Vermilion Bird bloodline, flames engulfing his body, crimson wings unfolding.
The wings behind Zhu Ling Yuan wrapped around him like hands, and those crimson fire wings instantly solidified, greatly increasing defense.
Crack Star Claw descended, five explosive sounds emitted.
Boom-crack! ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel_fіre.net
Almost immediately, cracks spread across the crimson Fire Wing Shield, fracturing and dispersing piece by piece.
"What a powerful strike."
Zhu Ling Yuan flew back, internally shocked.
But Chen Yu had already closed in, both claws attacking, platinum light marks flashing, stirring up a fierce storm.
Zhu Ling Yuan, forced into intense passivity by Chen Yu’s approach, summoned a flying sword, conjuring a massive sword cloud to strike.
Chen Yu’s claws are invincible weapons, directly clashing with Zhu Ling Yuan’s mystical weapon.
In less than twenty moves, Zhu Ling Yuan was injured by a claw from Chen Yu, leaving a bloodstain, his figure retreating.
As the flag couldn’t be stored in a storage space, Chen Yu easily seized it at the opportunity.
Zhu Ling Yuan, having lost the flag, roared in fury and despair.
"Hahaha, thanks for both of your flags!"
Chen Yu laughed heartily.
The Azure Dragon Divine Wood, and Vermilion Bird Heavenly Nest’s Qing Sha and Zhu Ling Yuan were all driven back, Chen Yu stood proudly at the peak, three flags fluttering in the wind.
