Chapter 684: Radiant Golden Light, Third-Grade Spirit Spear!

“Kill and burn with a golden belt, this is just one of the lairs of the Jiao Blood Gang. These sea pirates are truly wealthy.”

Su Mu arrived at the warehouse, openly inspecting the boxes of cultivation resources in the Jiao Blood Gang lair, unaware that the warehouse in front of him had gathered more than half of the Jiao Blood Gang’s foundations.

This sea region is merely the outer sea region. Deep within the sea, in the inner sea region, there are great cultivator sea pirates rampant, which is a place where the top forces of Donglai County dare not easily meddle.

These outer sea region pirates of the Jiao Blood Gang must offer tribute annually to the inner sea region pirates, otherwise, the people of the inner sea would not mind changing the leaders of the outer sea region.

Ten days ago, Sikong Li, Zong Buhui, and Gongsun Liang died consecutively, causing the remaining thirteen pirates to feel fear at their misfortune. At this moment, Liu Sha appeared to incite them, and the pirates frantically planned to blood-sacrifice all the guests participating in the auction.

In hopes of opening the secret realm Liu Sha mentioned ahead of time, they did not wish to follow in the footsteps of Sikong Li and others, nor did they want to be controlled by someone for a lifetime.

The desire for the upper three grades clouded the judgment of all the pirates during this period, even if there was only a sliver of chance, they were unwilling to give up, especially among the pirates Liu Sha, Dugu Lie, and Wang Heng, who were unable to make progress for years in the Half-Step Grandmaster Realm.

Especially Dugu Lie, whose Martial Arts Realm had stagnated for nearly thirty years, being the oldest among the three major pirates, unable to make progress for thirty years, only watching his peak fade away, his Qi Blood slowly begin to decline, how agonizing this process is.

For this reason, the warehouse before him wasn’t just the resources of one Jiao Blood Gang lair, but it gathered more than half of the Jiao Blood Gang’s foundations, and even beyond that, other major pirates outside the Jiao Blood Gang each brought a batch of resources.

The five major gang pirates were openly and covertly fighting, and there were often calculations and battles among the thirteen major pirates. Due to the secret realm event, the major pirates put down their grudges to join forces, but it doesn’t mean they can completely trust each other.

The major pirates are all vicious and fierce, having encountered many betrayals and personally betrayed others, so the warehouse had the current situation appear.

Each gang separately stationed people in the warehouse to watch, preventing their brought resources from being misappropriated or swallowed by other gangs.

Now, Su Mu scanning the resources inside the warehouse openly was seen as normal by the other five people, who only glanced at Su Mu upon his appearance.

Seeing Su Mu’s hunched figure and the sinister aura emanating from him, the five people’s gazes were either disgusted, fearful, or disdainful, but they quickly withdrew their gazes. Staring at the same-grade cultivator for a long time is taboo unless you’re ready for a battle.

The five people withdrew their gazes, but Su Mu was secretly observing the five people. However, the five were entirely unaware of Su Mu’s scrutiny.

Su Mu didn’t rush to take action, his inference talent quietly activated, analyzing the information he saw along the way, quickly constructing a rough layout of the underground dark hall in his mind.

“There are currently seven major pirates in the auction hall, and two Half-Step Grandmasters. This dark hall should have three major array hubs, and at least one Half-Step Grandmaster…”

Su Mu quickly analyzed the current situation, waiting for an opportunity, at least he needed to confirm the existence of that Half-Step Grandmaster in the shadows.

Otherwise, if he made a move and was ambushed by a Half-Step Grandmaster, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Hopefully, that side can hold on a bit longer.”

…

“Boom boom boom——!”

Three figures exuding powerful auras clashed fiercely within an instant, exchanging blows more than ten times, each hit unleashing thunderous explosions on flat ground.

The Qi Blood and Gang Force prototype belonging to the Half-Step Martial Arts Grandmaster scattered like a storm, under the exchange of the three, causing the auction hall protected by the grand array to have beams break, eaves crumble, turning into ruins.

Ah——!

With another deafening explosion, two wretched figures simultaneously let out a scream, flying back like severed kites. This scene stunned both sides still engaged in battle to momentarily cease, all holding their breath to look towards the ruins.

Whether sea pirates or the guests participating in the auction, they all knew that the key to deciding the battle’s victory wasn’t with them, but with those three wild battling figures.

If one of the Half-Step Grandmasters breaks free, even the most outstanding among the Fourth-Grade Martial Artists and Fourth-Grade Daoist Cultivators would find it difficult to contend, the difference of one step is like night and day!

As both sides stared blankly at the outline of those two figures.

It was none other than.

The ones screaming and flying out of the ruins were actually the sea pirate side’s Dugu Lie and Wang Heng, both heavily stepping onto the ground, cracking the stone bricks, before stopping their movements, looking at their impossible and fearful eyes towards the rolling ruins dust.

“Step step——”

A poised figure, holding a silver spear with a wolf-head in the right hand, slowly walked out from amidst the dust. Her flying bird mask on her face had long turned to powder in the violent exchange, revealing an imposing and confident face angled upward at forty-five degrees.

Facing two opponents alone without falling behind, instead injuring both, what an impression!

“So strong, who is this woman?”

“Hahaha, heaven doesn’t forsake us, with such a strong person present, we might survive this disaster!”

For a moment, the sea pirates felt tremors in their hearts, secretly thinking the situation was unfavorable, while the guests looked joyful, but their rejoicing didn’t last long.
