Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

1As the night deepened, the sound of beasts roaring could be heard from time to time. The five of them sat facing each other in the darkness and didn't light a bonfire.    2

    

The existence of bonfires in such a boundless plain was too eye-catching. Therefore, Chen Yu stopped the act of Ink Blue's bonfire.    

    

Along with the circulation of the Supreme Force in his body, Chen Yu's cultivation had mostly recovered by midnight and his injuries had started to heal as well.    

    

The powerful healing effect of the Blood Flame Tyrant Spell was once again demonstrated. If it was anyone else that suffered from his injuries, they would not be able to recover their battle strength within ten days or half a month.    

    

Because Chen Yu was cultivating, Mo Jie and the others suppressed their voices. However, Chen Yu could still hear it clearly. From their conversation, Chen Yu could feel their worry and hesitation.    

    

To most of the young martial artists that participated in the selection, before experiencing the cruel selection, they would always feel that they were extraordinary. And once this sort of mentality was destroyed by the cruel reality, it would be a blow to their confidence.    

    

The fear of death wasn't something that everyone could calmly take to heart. In Chen Yu's opinion, Mo Jie, Mo Shu, Mo Qing and the rest's strength were not bad, but they had not gotten used to the cruelty of the City Battle Trial, and this affected their survival.    

    

Opening his eyes, Chen Yu looked at the four warriors from the Mo family, who were sleeping, and said, "Go all the way north, I think we will be able to leave the plains soon. After that, I will separate from you, and you should be careful. As long as someone is nearby, we will take a detour, and maybe find a place to hide! "    

    

Mo Shu remained silent. Under the night sky, it was hard to tell if there was any disappointment on her face.    

    

"During the early and middle stages of the selection, all of those young geniuses who were presumptuously proud would focus their attention on the five Spiritual Soul. So you just need to be careful, the chances of survival are still very high, don't worry too much! "    

    

"Since we are participating in the City Battle Trial, then we have the awareness to die here. Chen Yu, you don't have to worry about us! " Mo Jie said softly.    

    

Chen Yu nodded, "It's good that you guys know this. Eh?"    

    

"What's wrong?" Mo Jie asked.    

    

"There's the smell of blood!" Hearing the faint roar of beasts, Chen Yu said, "I'll go take a look. You guys stay here and be careful!"    

    

"We'll go with you!" Mo Jie said.    

    

"No need, take care of yourselves!" Chen Yu confirmed the direction of the wind as he jumped and ran towards the east.    

    

After travelling more than 20 miles, Chen Yu felt the smell of blood getting stronger and stronger. At the same time, the sound of howling wolves and the sound of fighting could be faintly heard in the wind.    

    

In the plains, the wind did not obstruct them, so the smell of the wind could be sensed from far away. Judging from this distance, the battle might have lasted for a very long time.    

    

Chen Yu continued to get closer as he took out a wooden plate from the Storage Bag.    

    

Chen Yu wanted to try it out when he got the wooden token, but due to the Mo family's warriors beside him, Chen Yu could only suppress the urge in his heart. Now that they were alone, Chen Yu was getting impatient.    

    

Sensing the aura from the wooden board, Chen Yu clearly felt the Star Soul in his heart throbbing once again. Starlight spilled out of his heart and came out from Chen Yu's palm.    

    

Faint starlight shrouded the wooden board in Chen Yu's hand, and soon, they entered the interior of the board.    

    

All of a sudden, Chen Yu could feel a hint of pure Qi.    

    

It was just that this strand of Qi was too weak, it was difficult for Chen Yu to determine what this Qi was, and he was also unable to sense what kind of attribute this Qi had, he only felt that the Star Soul had become excited.    

    

Very quickly, the strand of aura was wrapped by the starlight and returned to Chen Yu's palm. It went along the meridians to the Star Soul and was then swallowed by the Star Soul.    

    

It was like Chen Yu was eating something.    

    

After a while, that strand of aura had completely disappeared. Chen Yu could sense that the Star Soul did not have any obvious changes, but Chen Yu could faintly feel that there was an obscure mental fluctuation from the Star Soul that needed to continue eating.    

    

Chen Yu was not surprised by this thought. The reason Spiritual Soul were called Spiritual Soul, other than having a strong spiritual affinity, it also had the possibility of nurturing a soul consciousness.    

    

As a warrior becomes stronger, the Soul of the Heaven Rank will also grow and eventually become a spiritual-type lifeform that possesses intelligence. This type of spiritual-type lifeform is often the source of the artifact spirit in the incomparably powerful Sacred Artifact Emperor.    

    

Therefore, battles between strong, high-level practitioners were cruel to the extreme. Even if there were no enemies, they would fight to the death. Forget about the rich spoils of war they had obtained by killing each other, just the Soul of the Heaven Rank in each other's bodies was enough to be a reason for them to kill each other.    

    

However, Chen Yu was only at the first level of Heavenly Astral Stage, but the Star Soul already revealed an obscure consciousness wave, which was a little rare.    

    

"This non-elemental Star Soul might be a Soul of the Heaven Rank. Furthermore, your origins are not small! "    

    

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yu took out two more wooden tablets and made them according to the law. He then used the Star Soul s to continue absorbing the mysterious aura within the two wooden tablets. One of them was a wooden sign he'd taken when he came in.    

    

It was a pity that even though the Star Soul seemed to be wanting to eat more, its consciousness still remained unchanged.    

    

"Still too little!" Chen Yu understood that the aura contained in every wooden tablet was too weak, it was not enough to change his Star Soul.    

    

However, Chen Yu knew he had one more goal, and that was to obtain as many wooden plates as possible.    

    

Chen Yu felt the pressure increasing as he ensured he could pass the City Battle Trial, and at the same time, let the Star Soul absorb as much of the Wood Plate Spiritual Energy as possible.    

    

The smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger. In the darkness, the roars of beasts could be clearly heard. These roars carried a sense of cruelty.    

    

Three minutes later, Chen Yu suddenly stopped and looked ahead with rapt attention. His left eye flashed with an indiscernible trace of blood-red light. Seven to eight miles away, he saw a hill, where sword lights were flashing in the dark.    

    

On one side, there were about twenty warriors, and on the other side, there was a group of gigantic and ferocious Demon Wolf.    

    

With just two eyes, Chen Yu was able to confirm that those wolves were Armored Giant Wolf, a sixth stage Demonic Beast with strong defense and power.    

    

A sixth stage Demonic Beast's strength was the equivalent of a second or third level Heavenly Astral Stage warrior, and on the hill at the moment, there were more than a hundred black armored Giant Wolf that were gathering, attacking the warriors on the hill one after another.    

    

From the names of the Giant Wolf s, it could be seen that their defensive capabilities were not weak. The sword beams of the warriors who landed on the Giant Wolf's bodies had limited damage, and could only make these Giant Wolf s more violent and ferocious.    

    

There were more than twenty warriors standing guard at the top of the hill.    

    

At the bottom of the hill, the stench of blood and wolf corpses littered the ground.    

    

"Huh?" Chen Yuzheng watched unperturbed, and suddenly revealed a trace of surprise, because he actually saw Lin Zeyi and two Lin Family Warriors.    

    

Lin Zeyi's hand was not holding onto the golden Spirit Sword, but rather an ordinary long blade. He and the two Lin Family Warriors held onto the side, barely holding on.    

    

"What's going on?" Chen Yu was surprised that Lin Zeyi did not use the golden Spirit Sword.    

    

Even though that sword was only a low-rank spiritual weapon, it was a weapon that was extremely suitable for Lin Zeyi's swordsmanship. Previously, when Lin Zeyi had ambushed Zhao Kongming, the only reason he had been able to break through Zhao Kongming's defense was because of that spiritual weapon.    

    

Chen Yu's eyes suddenly focused because he saw Lin Zeyi's sword. However, the sword was inserted into the top of a hill, in front of a warrior who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the defensive circle. Although that warrior was sitting cross-legged, one could see that he had a very big body.    

    

Even though Lin Zeyi and more than twenty other warriors were struggling to survive, they had their own ways of handling the situation. Once someone was injured, someone else would immediately go up to support the defense line.    

    

However, these martial artists didn't seem to be able to hold on for too long.    

    

The fierce battle continued. The warriors tried their best to hold on, and after the wounded retreated into the defensive circle, they used medicine to treat their wounds and then continued to heal them. Everyone was doing their best to fight.    

    

After watching for two minutes, Chen Yu did not have any intention of helping them. Rather than wasting effort to help these warriors, it was better to wait for the wolves to disperse before cleaning up the battlefield. After all, Demonic Beast would not take their spoils of war with them.    

    

Suddenly, Chen Yu saw a warrior fall to the ground after being pounced on by a black armored Giant Wolf. Chen Yu struggled fiercely and tried to save a warrior, but the wolf pack was too ferocious. They dragged the warrior into the wolf pack.    

    

Soon, the warrior no longer moved.    

    

The stench of blood became stronger and stronger.    

    

When that warrior was torn apart by the black armored wolves, a gap appeared in the defensive circle. The remaining martial artists were in a state of chaos, and the defensive circle had shrunk even more.    

    

"It looks like it's going to end soon!" Chen Yu shook his head and looked at Lin Zeyi. Due to the distance, he could not see the change in Lin Zeyi's expression, but he could still see the latter's panic and fear.    

    

Chen Yu could not help but laugh. He did not expect Lin Zeyi to die in such an ending.    

    

"Hmm?" Just when Chen Yu thought that everything was about to end, a powerful aura suddenly rose.    

    

Chen Yu looked over, and he saw the man who was healing at the top of the hill soar into the air, like an eagle spreading its wings, a powerful silver-white qi surged out, and the pair of wings on his back suddenly congealed, turning into a pair of eagle feathers.    

    

Under the light of the Astral Qi Wing, Chen Yu saw that the man's face was stiff and cold. The outline of his face was extremely sharp, and he was holding a golden long sword and a half man tall huge blade in each hand.    

    

Following the display of his valiant aura, that pack of wolves that was attacking fiercely actually became restless for a moment. Some of the black armored Giant Wolf even involuntarily retreated a little.    

    

After the man passed through the defensive circle, he swung his sword and broadsword at the same time. A golden sword light and a silver blade light came pouring down with incomparable sharpness towards the wolf pack.    

    

In just a few breaths of time, the sword lights and sword lights intersected with the wolves, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere.    

    

A blank space appeared within the pack of wolves. Seven to eight Giant Wolf were killed by the man with one slash and one slash.    

    

"The cultivation of the sixth level of the Heavenly Astral Stage, incomparably refined astral energy!" Chen Yu was a bit surprised when he saw this.
