第两千七百五十六章 大五行挪移之术

Original and exclusive update: Threatening and enticing didn't work, and he had wasted so much time. The Duke of Heavenly Essence was extremely frustrated.

However, with the matter settled, there was no point in being depressed. He could only use his divine sense to search through all the cultivators within the city.

Although this would take a considerable amount of time, if True Apex Sect learned about it, they wouldn't ignore it. But he had already set himself up and couldn't afford not to act.

The True Spirit Blood was crucial for him to survive the next Great Heavenly Tribulation. He could not afford to offend such a formidable entity even if it meant causing trouble.

He knew what he should do and what he shouldn’t, as an experienced old fox like the Duke of Heavenly Essence would clearly understand the pros and cons.

Time passed quickly, and after two hours, there was still no sign of True Apex Sect's cultivators coming to negotiate. He had already searched through all the cultivators in the city but found nothing.

That guy seemed to have vanished from thin air.

How could he be missing?

The old monster's face turned even more grim.

"Black Tooth, are you sure that guy escaped into this city?" The Duke of Heavenly Essence turned around and asked with an unpleasant tone.

"I report to my lord. You have already used a secret technique to temporarily increase my sensing abilities by several times. I can be certain that the guy has fled here, and there is no mistake about it. Please rest assured," the pig-like creature replied nervously.

Though his words were not a lie, he had omitted some details. Initially, he did indeed find the annoying cultivator who escaped to this city. But after Lin Xuan used the Heaven Demon Transformation Technique, he lost the spiritual wave sensing as well.

That guy seemed to have vanished from existence.

He was still puzzled by this but dared not tell the Duke of Heavenly Essence the truth for fear that his lord would suspect him of having made a mistake in sensing.

Though his words were not a lie, it left the question of why he couldn't find the guy unsolved. He had no choice but to leave it to his lord's worries.

The Duke of Heavenly Essence frowned. With their blood pact, he could feel that these weren’t lies. But if the guy was in the city, why couldn’t he find him?

He was extremely frustrated.

Since appearing here, it had been nearly three hours. If he continued to dawdle, True Apex Sect would definitely react.

If it were anyone else, it wouldn't matter much, but it could be that Sovereign Heaven Apex himself would personally come here. After all, his grand display made it clear that the treasure they sought was extraordinary.

Only a few cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence stage would be tempted by such a prize. Sovereign Heaven Apex's decision to leave his seclusion wasn't surprising.

Damn it!

It seemed he had no choice but to use that method.

He would bring everyone in this city and all its inhabitants back to his cave, then search them one by one. That way, with enough time, even if the opponent possessed divine abilities, they couldn’t escape his eyes.

However, this city was too large, and there were too many cultivators and ordinary people inside. Moving everything back would be a hassle.

Fortunately, he had that momentary treasure.

But stuffing the entire city into it wouldn't be easy; he needed to use the Great Five Elements Translocation Technique, which wasn’t something an early Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator could easily perform.

To use it, he would need to ignite his primordial essence fire and use his life force as a guide. The loss would be considerable.

He didn't want to do this unless absolutely necessary, but now, there was no choice.

The benefits of obtaining True Spirit Blood outweighed the losses in his mind.

Still, he was extremely frustrated.

That damn little guy! You wait until I get my hands on you; I will make your life a living hell.

His eyes filled with hatred as he swore silently.

Though he was unwilling to do this, since he had made up his mind, he no longer hesitated. A cruel look appeared on his face as he waved his sleeves and a golden light flashed out. A one-foot-tall tower materialized before him.

Instantly, the city erupted with cries of shock. The already frightened cultivators grew even more anxious.

The opponent had actually brought out a treasure! What did this old monster want to do?

Many cultivators exchanged worried glances, and the murmurs filled the air.

But despite their fear, no one dared to act rashly. Those who tried to escape using the teleportation array were already dead. Everyone saw that scene clearly. Under such a powerful threat, no one would dare risk their lives.

Why should I be the first to stick my neck out when there are so many fellow cultivators here?

Most of the cultivators thought this way and thus remained motionless, waiting for the moment they needed to fight.

Seeing this result, the Duke of Heavenly Essence was extremely satisfied. He waved his hands like a butterfly, shooting out golden techniques from his sleeves at an incredible speed, which entered the tower.

Sizzle...

In front of everyone's eyes, the one-foot-tall golden tower underwent a shocking change.

It melted...

Indeed, the golden tower melted into a liquid and continued to expand. Soon, a golden sphere with a diameter of about a foot appeared before their eyes.

What is this?

The cultivators were dumbfounded.

Among millions of cultivators, many had seen much, but they hadn't heard of any treasure that could melt. It was no wonder that such a technique left everyone baffled.

Only those who witnessed it with their own eyes would believe it.

Lin Xuan's eyes also showed surprise, but he felt extremely uneasy inside. The opponent wouldn’t have done this without reason, but what his goal was, Lin Xuan couldn't figure out either. He had never seen such a scene before.

His eyes flashed as he remained motionless.

What the opponent’s purpose might be didn’t matter; with so many fellow cultivators here, what could they fear?

If the opponent intended to lure him out, Lin Xuan wouldn’t easily fall for it.

Meanwhile, in the sky, another change occurred.

Sizzle...

The light sphere continued to expand and spun faster. After a few moments, the light sphere disappeared, replaced by a golden vortex that appeared before their eyes.
