Chapter 722: Advanced Hunting
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Yuanlai City.
It changed rapidly, thriving with vitality.
After Venerate Xuan officially took over, she displayed a completely different side.
Decisive and swift, she wielded power with determination!
Not only did she manage the entire Azure Cloud Realm, but also, at the behest of Fairy Qing Yao, she gradually handled the affairs of Primordial Star.
After the human-devil war, Primordial Star was extremely busy, both internally and externally.
In her high position, Venerate Xuan never had a moment’s rest.
“Senior Sister Xuan, the affiliated races of Yuanlai City are dissatisfied due to declining rights…”
“Let them find another place to settle.”
“Venerate Xuan, Jiutian Corp has appealed to the Human Sanctuary, hoping that Primordial Star can share Yuanlai City’s cultivation grounds for the benefit of the human cosmic.”
“Tell them to leave.”
“Sister Xuan, this is the list of elite disciples selected in Azure Cloud Realm. Please review it.”
“Expand the scope to include all disciples of Primordial Star. Each disciple should have an equal opportunity to choose.”
…
Swoosh!
Venerate Xuan, amidst handling numerous affairs, suddenly stood up.
The leaders of Primordial Star were all taken aback.
Seeing Venerate Xuan’s shimmering eyes and fully unleashed aura, it was as if an iceberg had melted, radiating warmth.
“Senior Sister Xuan…” Naibai Master was about to speak.
Venerate Xuan cut him off. “I have urgent matters to attend to. Put everything on hold. If it’s urgent, consult City Lord Fate first.”
With that, she vanished in an instant.
Left behind, everyone exchanged puzzled glances.
What could be so important that Venerate Xuan had to set everything aside and personally handle it?
…
Qingyun City, Little Wish Astral Realm.
Swoosh! Venerate Xuan’s figure appeared.
Starwish Master, Qi Qiqi, and Ning Moli were already waiting.
“Second Senior Sister, you’re here!” Ning Moli exclaimed with joy, standing as graceful as a fairy, her long eyelashes captivating.
“Let’s go and rescue Junior Brother!” Qi Qiqi’s voice was coy, her movements brisk.
Rubbing his hands together, she looked ready to square off against the Sky race.
Fully equipped and brimming with battle spirit.
“Wait here for updates,” Venerate Xuan instructed. “I’ll handle this alone.”
Qi Qiqi and Ning Moli looked disappointed.
Especially Qi Qiqi, who managed to muster a pitiful expression.
Interlocking her fingers, she gazed pleadingly at Venerate Xuan.
“Don’t worry.” Starwish Master’s voice was soothing. “When the time comes, the Second Senior Sister will have to divide her attention to take care of you.”
“I understand.” Venerate Xuan nodded, then turned to Starwish Master. “Did Junior Brother say anything else?”
“No.” Starwish Master shook her head. “He didn’t communicate privately with us. Only this.”
“I can’t locate him through Soul Ensnaring Dreams,” Venerate Xuan explained. “I’m being disrupted by a powerful force.”
“Same here,” Starwish Master agreed. “The abilities of the Sky race are beyond imagination.”
“No wonder no one has ever escaped from the spacetime sky prison. Junior Brother might not only be unable to communicate with us but also restrained himself.”
“What should we do?” Starwish Master inquired.
“Let’s get started,” Venerate Xuan said. “Based on the information provided by Junior Brother earlier, the advanced hunting range should be one of the eight huge chaos realms of the cosmic beast race and the divine tree race.”
“Shall we search the area?” Starwish Master asked.
Venerate Xuan nodded. “I’ve already reached out to the cosmic beasts, and they’ve agreed. However, we’ll have to forcefully enter the territory of the divine tree race.”
“I hope everything goes smoothly,” Starwish Master nodded.
“No matter what, I’ll exert all my strength to save Junior Brother,” Venerate Xuan declared.
“Count me in,” Starwish Master affirmed. “Though the odds are slim, I’ll explore the other ordinary chaos domains to see if I can find anything.”
“Alright, let’s split up.”
…
Where was he?
Wang Ye looked around, his expression turning serious.
Advanced hunting was somewhat different from what he had anticipated.
He had thought that everyone would be taken away by the Sky race together and sent to some location via a teleportation channel.
But that wasn’t the case.
After being taken away by the white beam of light, it felt as though he had traversed time and space and landed directly here.
Star Shifting!
It was too fast!
So fast that he didn’t even know what had happened.
“High-dimensional Space Heavenly Dao…” Five words flashed in Wang Ye’s mind.
That was the strength of Spatial Control taken to the extreme.
The Sky race excelled in time and space manipulation.
Suddenly…
Swoosh! A figure clad in pure white appeared before him.
With four wings on his back, he was remarkably handsome.
An Eternal expert of the Sky race!
His aura remained tranquil, his face devoid of expression.
However, the spatial fluctuation just now demonstrated his prowess. He had already mastered the great path of space.
“3233,” the Sky race’s four-winged expert spoke.
“Call me?” Wang Ye thought.
Wang Ye glanced at the golden number ‘3233’ on his chest.
How impolite!
“My name is Wang Ye,” he stated.
Pa!
The four-winged expert’s hand landed on the golden number as if activating a switch.
“The phylactery has been opened,” Wang Ye frowned.
When did this thing appear on him?
“Was it already there when I was brought from the Primordial Star to the spacetime sky prison?” Wang Ye thought.
“Advanced hunting will last for a hundred years,” the Sky race’s four-winged expert said. “Put the captured prey into the life casket, and the profit will be calculated based on changes in your life digits.”
“After a hundred years, if your life digits exceed 10,000, you’ll become a sixth-grade Outer Sky race.”
“If it exceeds 100,000, you’ll be promoted to a fifth-grade Outer Sky race.”
“Beyond 1 million, you’ll ascend to a fourth-grade Outer Sky race.”
“What if it exceeds 10 million?” Wang Ye inquired.
“It remains a fourth-grade Outer Sky race,” the Sky race’s four-winged expert replied coldly.
Wang Ye nodded.
So, this was the path to becoming a third-grade Outer Sky race through advanced hunting.
Naturally, he wasn’t asking casually.
Instead, he had to confirm the upper limit and, at the same time, figure out one thing.
The Sky wouldn’t simply end their advanced hunt, regardless of the gains.
In essence, he had a hundred years to devise a way to leave.
“What do I want to capture?” Wang Ye asked.
“High-life prey,” the Sky race’s four-winged expert responded.
“Even experts from other races?” Wang Ye chuckled.
“Yes,” the Sky race’s four-winged expert confirmed.
The Sky race was truly devoid of humanity.
While they were capturing prey, they had to be wary of being treated as prey…
“Can I leave early?” Wang Ye inquired once more.
“Cannot.”
…
“Can I find you when I’m in trouble?” Wang Ye asked again.
“Cannot.”
…
“You may leave now,” the four-winged expert of the Sky race said coldly.
“Alright,” Wang Ye nodded.
He kept his lips tightly sealed, and couldn’t pry any information from his mouth.
It would have been better if it were a Sky Race woman…
“Let me remind you, don’t even think about escaping,” the four-winged expert of the Sky race in a deep voice. “The phylactery will monitor your every move.”
“Those attempting to escape will be killed without mercy!”
“Don’t harbor any illusions.”
“In the countless chaotic eras that have passed, not a single being from the Myriad races has ever succeeded.”
Swoosh! The four-winged expert of the Sky race vanished in an instant.
The chilling voice carried a stark warning.
Wang Ye pondered it carefully.
There was a wealth of information there.
Though the Sky race expert didn’t divulge much, Wang Ye had gleaned a rough understanding.
First and foremost, he needed to ascertain his escape route from here.
Otherwise, the Sky race wouldn’t have emphasized it once more.
Secondly, the difficulty would undoubtedly be insurmountable.
Indeed, he had never heard of any creature from the Myriad races successfully fleeing the spacetime sky prison.
Lastly, the phylactery on his body was pivotal.
As long as he wore it, escape was out of the question.
However, deliberate destruction of it could lead to charges of attempted escape.
Moreover, it seemed exceedingly resistant to damage.
Despite enduring hundreds of years in the ten thousand-year prison and countless battles, it had remained unscathed.
“Phew,” Wang Ye sighed.
It was somewhat troublesome.
Fortunately, he had a century to devise a plan.
Simultaneously, he wasn’t alone in strategizing.
His senior and junior sisters were also pooling their thoughts and executing their plans.
“My consciousness has been disrupted…” Wang Ye attempted to contact Second Senior Sister through Soul Ensnaring Dream.
However, a vast magnetic field or strength seemed to sever the connection.
Was it because of the phylactery?
Or some other restriction?
Wang Ye shivered.
Meng Yangqing was right. The Sky race was definitely not benevolent.
The spacetime sky prison was rightfully one of the four great perils.
If he hadn’t reacted quickly and mentioned something before the advanced hunt began, Second Senior Sister might not have even realized he had started.
“I can’t sense them, and they probably can’t sense me either.”
“Based on our previous discussion, Second Senior Sister should be systematically searching the huge chaos realm now…”
Wang Ye scanned the surroundings, looking up at the sky.
Origin energy was abundant, but the innate great path wasn’t obvious.
The high-dimensional heavenly path was incomplete.
“But the life force is abundant…” Wang Ye carefully surveyed his surroundings.
This place felt somewhat like… a secret realm.
Innate great path and even high-dimensional heavenly path seemed to be concealed.
It wasn’t clear if this was a natural occurrence or if the Sky race had intervened somehow.
Was this truly a huge chaos realm?
Even with Soul Ensnaring Dreams blocked, given the vastness of the huge chaos realm…
Even if she knew his location, it would be challenging for Second Senior Sister to find him.
“Let’s scout the area first, assess the terrain and the life forms here,” Wang Ye organized his thoughts, preparing to take action.
“Advanced hunts usually target cosmic beasts and divine trees. You’ll recognize them when you see them.”
Both were innate high-dimensional lifeforms with tremendous vitality.
Exploring this area first would provide more information!
He never believed in unsolvable situations.
Everything depended on one’s efforts!
…
Whoosh! Wang Ye moved swiftly.
Exploring the entire hunting ground with so much unknown required caution.
This place had a primitive and savage feel to it.
Various life forms abounded, and the life force surged like in the Azure Cloud Realm. Countless natural treasures were scattered about.
The Immortal Herb Spiritual Plant could be obtained as long as one recognized it.
Placing them in the phylactery would increase life points.
But the rewards weren’t extravagant.
After all, compared to cosmic beasts and divine trees with vast life force, Immortal Herb Spiritual Plants were not known for their longevity but rather for their remarkable efficacy.
“A treasure of life would suffice,” Wang Ye had it.
However, to him, the life points in his phylactery were just numbers.
He didn’t aspire to become an Outer Sky race, so what was the point of increasing them?
Even if the Sky race warned him a hundred thousand times, it wouldn’t deter him.
He was determined to escape!
Even if offered a dozen Sky beauties, it wouldn’t sway him!
“Hmm?” Wang Ye’s eyes lit up suddenly as he sensed a powerful aura in the distance.
He found something!
Swoosh! Wang Ye accelerated suddenly!
Passing through the spatial shackles, Wang Ye’s vision suddenly expanded, and he was taken aback.
What?
