Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1598: Chapter 1597: Conspiracy (4th Update!)

The distinguished Second Grade Spirit Body Realm, and still able to be selected as a team leader in the Second Grade Spirit Body Realm...

To be honest, dying like this is somewhat humiliating.

From start to finish, Chen Yee didn’t even have a chance to strike.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to act, but he feared that if he did, he might harm his own team members.

If it wasn’t for Fang Lv appearing at the end, even if Chen Yee died, he still wouldn’t know who was attacking them.

The only thing they believed was the crisis coming from the Starry Battlefield.

And as time passed, the remaining members of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow met a tragic death one by one.

In their sight, all they saw were those dressed in white, with pale faces, and blood oozing from their hollow eyes.

But in reality, those they killed were all their companions, while those who killed them were members of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.

...

With the passage of time, it became unknown when the battle ended.

On Lost Soul Mountain, in a certain place, a suddenly opened-eyed Su Han sat cross-legged.

His palm slapped the ground, and the entire Lost Soul Mountain suddenly began to tremble.

The cliff vanished, the lava disappeared, and numerous white-clad figures also vanished.

The only remaining things were the various members of the Angel Army and... the corpses scattered everywhere.

”Woo-woo...”

The wind blew, causing uncertainty whether it was stirred by the Illusion Array or naturally, making the place somewhat desolate.

Fang Lv and the others stood there, stunned.

It wasn’t because they killed so many people, but because they never imagined this battle would be such a great victory!

The three squads of the Angel Army, with a total of fifteen hundred people, not a single one died, nor even got injured!

In contrast, the Sect of the Supreme Shadow’s side, four squads, two thousand people, were completely defeated, not one survived!

Neither Fang Lv nor Dongpo could quite believe it.

They frequently clashed with the Sect of the Supreme Shadow, and the strength between the two was truly neck and neck, with neither side daring to claim superiority over the other.

Yet today, they had achieved it.

Under Su Han’s manipulation of this Illusion Array, they achieved it!

Neither having mercy, they viewed the corpses littering the ground, and a surge of excitement immediately rose from the depths of their hearts, causing them to tremble all over, their blood boiling!

For the first time, she felt that defeating the Sect of the Supreme Shadow wasn’t so difficult!

”Whew...”

Su Han let out a gentle breath, his face slightly pale.

The Illusion Array on Lost Soul Mountain had been ravaged by countless years, yet its power remained incredibly fearsome. Su Han used himself as the Formation Eye, exerting all his efforts to achieve the current state.

”Impressive.”

Fang Lv approached, standing before Su Han, her expression still somewhat cold, uttering two words she had never spoken before.

”Changed your mind now?” Su Han smiled slightly.

”The strength or weakness of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow is still debatable, but the main concern remains the Ming Surname Faction.” Fang Lv said.

”Stabilization strategy requires internal consolidation first. Once we’ve brought back the heads of the Sec of the Supreme Shadow’s Three Great Legions, Sect Master will know what to do.”

Su Han was silent for a moment, looked at Fang Lv, and further said, ”She is smarter than any of us.”

”What about next?”

Dongpo approached with a loud laugh, ”Haha, it really is exhilarating! Not a single soldier lost, and we took out four squads of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow’s Battle God Army. How great would it be if we could keep killing like this!”

”As long as we’re in the Starry Arena, I can ensure you keep killing like this.” Su Han stated lightly.

”Really?”

”Indeed.”

Su Han stood up, ”Collect the storage rings of their four squad leaders. The people of the Sect of the Supreme Shadow must have come through Lost Soul Mountain searching for something; we’ll take over it now.”

”No need, I know what they were searching for.”

Fang Lv said, ”Not far from Lost Soul Mountain is a large mountain called Tai Ling Mountain, and on it is a giant Spirit Crystal Vein that’s been occupied by the Sect of the Supreme Shadow. Our Angel Army has been eyeing it for many years.”

”Spirit Crystal Vein, huh?”

Su Han’s lips curled into a smile, ”Then, the Spirit Crystal Vein is ours!”

...

Tai Ling Mountain.

It’s called a large mountain, but it’s actually not that big, more like a small hill. However, beneath this small hill lurks a significant Spirit Crystal Vein.

Due to the Starry Battlefield’s crisis that can change at any moment, no faction can ever conduct long-term mining here, not for Spirit Crystal Veins nor any other treasure.

Throughout the Starry Battlefield, only the bases they occupy are truly safe zones, free from any crisis.

Under such circumstances, they only mine here temporarily, waiting each time until it is completely safe before continuing.

Su Han and others now stood before the giant Spirit Crystal Vein, smacking their lips in awe.

”Damn it, this is bigger than the ones we occupy by far!” Dongpo couldn’t help but say.

Surrounding them were walls of glimmering Spirit Crystals; their depth unknown, the rich Spiritual Energy there pervades enough to form liquid accumulating in ground pits, overtime crystallizing again, eventually becoming Spirit Crystals.

Indisputably, the Spirit Crystal reserves here are absolutely massive.

If they could occupy such a vein, the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion’s disciples could grow rapidly due to the multitude of resources available for their training, never worrying about scarcity.

This indeed is why numerous forces within the Star Region often wage war:

Rivalry over resources!

”A Spirit Crystal Vein this large couldn’t be mined in a short period without incurring much waste.”

Su Han pursed his lips, stating solemnly, ”Let’s mine for a day. I need to setup formation, and afterward conceal ourselves, as others from the Sect of the Supreme Shadow should arrive.”

”Alright.”

Everyone nodded, subtly regarding Su Han already as their leader.

...

In a blink, two days passed.

Numerous figures appeared outside the Spirit Crystal Vein.

Nearly four thousand people, exuding immense hostile aura.

”Not here?”

Glancing inside the Spirit Crystal Vein, within the group, a sturdy middle-aged man frowned, ”Damn Chen Yee and the others, where on earth are they? If alive, why haven’t they reported back?”

”Forget them.”

Another elderly man coldly snorted, ”They will naturally face punishment upon return. For now, let’s mine a few days; Sect Master seems intent on using these Spirit Crystals to hire a Mercenary Group against the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion. If delayed, we’d be sinners indeed.”

”Heard that Ming Xushen can’t wait any longer, right?” The middle-aged man chuckled.

”Hmm, who knows how Ren Qinghuan provoked him. But this is none of our business.”

The elderly man coldly snorted, ”After so many years of grievances, at long last, it’s time to put an end to it...”
