Chapter 1149 – Heaven Jewel’s Information
“Why do you ask?” Zhong Shenxiu faced the three demon geniuses alone.
“I’m thinking about how many moves it’ll take for me to beat you.” Yuan Sansan smiled.
The three only cared about Prince Tyrant, not this human genius. They only wanted to fight him in order to gauge Prince Tyrant’s power.
“How dare you look down on us?” Shangguan Mingqian stepped forward; her black hair draped behind her like a waterfall. She began channeling her impressive aura.
“If you can’t wait any longer, we can start now instead of waiting until the conference.” Heaven Calculating Scholar said with a smile.
The atmosphere became tense between the humans and immemorial demons.
“What a waste of time.” Feiyun shook his head.
“Why is that? You’re not interested in a big fight?” Ximen Chuixiao had the opposite reaction.
“It won’t happen because the scholar never makes a mistake. First, humans are at a disadvantage right now and second, there is no need to fight three immemorial demon traces at the same time. He knows something else.” Feiyun explained.
Sure enough, a messenger came in and brought news of the missing artifact.
“Someone in Devil Forest saw a ray that could be from Heaven Jewel.” The messenger revealed.
This prompted everyone to run toward the forest.
“Heaven Jewel is apparently a saint embryo, it can become a sacred artifact. It would never go missing if it is in our possession.” Yuan Sansan laughed and leaped through the roof, running for the forest as well.
Firebird Saintess and Prince Moonbreak did the same, flying with incredible speed.
“We cannot let Heaven Jewel fall into the hands of the demons!” Shangguan Mingqian’s expression soured.
The demons would never return this for it was previously stolen by a thief, not by them. It would be a great loss to Aquamoon Paradise and humiliating to the human race.
‘This Heaven Jewel has a Soul Spirit Stone, if I can get it, I’ll just be missing one more thing for Hongyan’s revival.’ Feiyun contemplated while stroking his chin.
Reviving Hongyan required three main materials - Tribulation Reincarnation, Soul Spirit Stone, and the refined blood of a grand saint.
Feiyun had three drops of blood currently. Obtaining this soul stone would be another great leap to his goal.
“Brother Feng, I don’t know how you got that right, it seems they won’t fight… Brother Feng?” Ximen Chuixiao looked back and didn’t see Feiyun anywhere.

Devil Forest was a dangerous location in Radiance World due to its man-eating trees and flowers in addition to dangerous miasma. Regular cultivators didn’t dare to enter this place.
However, the rising geniuses didn’t give a damn since they were stronger than even cultivators from the previous generations, not to mention their ace cards.
Feiyun landed next to a lake and observed the forest for a second before leaping up into the air like an eagle.
When he landed again in a place filled with beast corpses and skeletons, he saw the turtle and dragon looking around.
“Why are you two here?” He asked.
They immediately hid the treasures they had just found from Feiyun. Of course, he didn’t care for these lower-level treasures right now.
They thought that he was here to punish them and thought about running.
Feiyun smiled and took out the eye of the evil dragon, ready to fire. The two immediately became obedient and came closer in his direction.
“Bam!” The dragon got on the ground and said: “Master Feng, please forgive me. Capturing that priestess was all the turtle’s idea!”
“Forget about that, why are you two here?” Feiyun put the evil eye away.
The dragon heaved a sigh of relief and got up again: “We followed a suspicious figure here but eventually lost sight of it.”
It turned out that while running away from Feiyun, they saw a figure and were bored enough to follow it to Devil Forest.
This lake was filled with skeletons. The older beasts of the forest chose this as their final resting place. Thus, it was filled with corpse miasma and haunted fiery sparks.
Deeper ahead was a dark expanse with frightening roars.
“Did you see a ray recently?” He asked.
“Close to here too, but it only flashed for a second. Wait, is it a treasure?” The turtle became curious.
“Heaven Jewel.” Feiyun said before leaping into the lake.
The dragon and turtle exchanged glances, clearly ecstatic. They then gave chase.
The three of them traveled for two days but found nothing, only to be occasionally ambushed by evil spirits.
“Boom!” A skull with flames in its eye sockets was crushed by the dragon.
“This is still not the farthest region, I’m sure there are stronger monsters ahead.” Feiyun said while analyzing the situation.
The death energy farther was dense. He felt that something was purposely leading them here.
The turtle smelled something and took note of a particular bloodied corpse. The face was torn beyond recognition but this was definitely a woman who had just died recently.
Feiyun came over and frowned: “A cultivator from Aquamoon Paradise. I sense demonic energy, she must have been killed recently. Let’s go.”
He hurried his pace and saw more corpses - some with their heart missing or their head eaten.
Eventually, they came across a raging battle - three demons fighting against a white-robed priestess.
The demons came from the triumph-fish race and were in the Heaven’s Emergence realm. It didn’t look favorable for the human priestess.
“You best become our prince’s servant and please him well. Otherwise, we’ll make you the mother of a half-demon today, haha!”
“Bastards!” Chi Quan’er darted through the attacks like a white fairy while unleashing sword rays.
Ten human corpses could be seen in the area; she seemed to be the sole survivor, albeit with many injuries.
She had a chance of winning against one of them but not all three. She couldn’t even escape.
One of the demons reverted back to his fish form, performing a tail swipe. The sharp energy left a deep gash on her chest.
“Haha, the humans will be utterly humiliated after our prince makes her a slave.” Another used a special technique to stop her flying sword.
The third performed a palm strike straight at her head, aiming to immobilize her first.
‘Ra!” They suddenly heard the roar of a dragon.
They couldn’t react before being sent flying and rolling on the ground.
The blood dragon appeared and stared at the demons with a smirk, looking like a cat coming across three free meals.
“Sir Demon Monarch, our master is Prince Moonbreak. I trust that you have heard of him.” The fish prostrated on the ground, hoping to be spared.
They didn’t understand why they were attacked but still believed that he would spare them after hearing the name of their master.
