At this moment, the true natives and Emperor Realm powerhouses hidden among the crowd were all shocked.
"Such peerless techniques... they should be in our possession. With them, we might have the capability to escape the heavenly road!" a high-level native Emperor Realm powerhouse transmitted his voice to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a bit and replied, "This person... it is said he has connections with that person from a hundred thousand years ago; he's his descendant. If we do this, could we not provoke that person?
"Pass this matter on to Luo Jue. If he is willing to take action, then there won't be any issues," the high-level Emperor Realm powerhouse transmitted back.
After hesitating for a moment, the middle-aged man nodded, "Alright, if he is willing to take action, then there should be no problems!" Having said this, the middle-aged man quietly slipped away from the crowd and quickly disappeared from view.
Meanwhile, an Emperor Realm powerhouse at the third level of the Emperor Realm was madly charging left and right within that space, trying to break out.
Because that space had turned into an area—a domain condensed by a true immortal cultivator, trapping him, an Emperor Realm powerhouse!
Such an occurrence, if spoken of, would definitely not be believed by anyone; it was just a little too bizarre.
Yet it was happening right before everyone's eyes.
All the spectators focused intently on the scene, having lost all other thoughts.
For instance: whether Chu Mo had the qualifications to be seated amongst the ranks of the young adults. This question was now forgotten. The one thing everyone was thinking about now was whether Chu Mo could defeat this Emperor Realm powerhouse at the third level!
The Emperor Realm powerhouse at the third level felt an unprecedented sense of panic, not even knowing what divine ability this was. Space was twisted, time was stilled, and the void before him seemed to be sliced into countless pieces. He saw Chu Mo clearly standing there, gathering his power... as rolling essence energy continuously poured into his body. Yet he could not reach him!
Ever since he set foot on the path of cultivation, he had never been so passive. Being born on the heavenly road was both a blessing and a curse for a cultivator.
The advantage was the unimaginably fortuitous opportunities here, and the essence energy that couldn't be compared with the outside world. As long as one was not too foolish, one could generally cultivate to an extremely high realm.
But the downside was that for life, they could only be trapped here, with no way to leave. Their understanding of the outside world came every three thousand years from the cultivators who poured into this place from the Heavenly Realm.
However, those cultivators would eventually leave, some in as short as ten days, others in as long as three to five years, but in the end, they would leave the heavenly road. At that time, the cultivators on the heavenly road could only watch them depart with envy, and the world would once again become solitary.
This place was like a cage, and they... were like exiled and cursed prisoners, forever unable to leave.
Therefore, deep down, the native cultivators on the heavenly road were full of jealousy towards the cultivators from the outside. Some extremists even felt hatred!
Bian Kaiyu, the Emperor Realm powerhouse at the third level, was one who harbored hatred for outsiders. When Zhao Dongming, a follower of Long Qiushui, approached him, it only took five million top-grade Heavenly Crystals to buy him off, asking him to murder Chu Mo!
The moment Chu Mo dragged Qin Xiaotian into the Heavenly Tribulation, Bian Kaiyu felt his payment was at stake! This man was truly a Heavenly Genius!
When Chu Mo killed the hidden assassin, Bian Kaiyu felt Chu Mo's life was worth at least a billion!
Because even he had not noticed the assassin lurking in the void, yet Chu Mo had directly slain him.
Thus, he transmitted his voice to Zhao Dongming, demanding a higher price. To up it to a billion! He thought for sure that the man would refuse. Refuse if he will, he had no intention of returning the five million.
But what completely surprised Bian Kaiyu was not only did the other party not refuse, but he also agreed immediately! Then he promised after the success of the task, he would add another ten million top-grade Heavenly Crystals!
The condition made Bian Kaiyu's heart start thumping wildly.
The spirit energy on the heavenly road was dense, but however dense it was, it couldn't match the quick efficiency of top-grade Heavenly Crystals!
For top-grade Heavenly Crystals were the purest and finest essence of condensed spirit energy crystallized... such treasures!
There weren't too many large Heavenly Crystal mines on the heavenly road, so Heavenly Crystals themselves were already a highly sought-after currency there. Let alone the top-grade ones—they were simply a rarity that could hardly be sought after.
The prospect of earning a hundred and ten million all at once was an offer that Bian Kaiyu simply couldn't refuse. Nor was he afraid that the other party would dare to default on the debt; in this heavenly road, those foreign cultivators couldn't act recklessly.
The moment Chu Mo finished his Heavenly Tribulation, Bian Kaiyu didn't hesitate to take action. In his eyes, what was a cultivator who had just stepped into the true immortal realm? However strong, how strong could he be? With his own third level in the Emperor Realm, killing such a mid-stage true immortal would indeed be as easy as reaching out to grab something, wouldn't it?
However—
He thought too much!
As a big shot of his realm, not only did he gain no advantage in front of Chu Mo, but he was also completely overpowered by him. Now trapped here, he couldn't even manage to break free!
He panicked and became furious—utterly furious!
"Chu Mo, you thief, if you have the guts, come out and fight me head-on!" Bian Kaiyu bellowed.
"Who bought you off? How much did they pay you? Tell me, and I'll double it for you to kill him. After he's dead, I'll pay you triple the money!" came Chu Mo's chilling voice.
Bian Kaiyu's heart jolted as he shouted back, "Are you serious?"
Chu Mo sneered and didn't answer, as if disdaining to reply to his question.
At that moment, Long Qiushui's face among the crowd changed instantly, and Zhao Dongming at his side turned even paler, his gaze shifty as he seemed to want to slip away.
Bian Kaiyu shouted loudly, "If you're serious, boy... first give me fifty million top-grade Heavenly Crystals! Then I'll tell you!"
"Poor ghost, fifty million is it?" Chu Mo's voice was icy with a hint of mockery, then a storage bag soared to the heavens and landed in front of Bian Kaiyu.
In that instant, Bian Kaiyu seemed to be searching for a flaw, but he immediately found that there was none whatsoever!
Somehow reluctantly, he took the storage bag, and with a sweep of his divine sense, the vast essence energy within nearly scared him into throwing the storage bag away.
Top-grade Heavenly Crystals!
Absolutely top-grade without a doubt.
Moreover, there was definitely more than fifty million in that storage bag, not a single one less!
"This little beast, to be so rich... I must get in touch with some companions later to kill him! To plunder all of his wealth. Right, and his knife, that pill furnace, they're all top-quality dharma instruments! They might have even surpassed supreme instruments! That's right, I heard he's the descendant of that person from a hundred thousand years ago, maybe all of those dharma instruments on him are Quasi-Saint level!" Bian Kaiyu schemed in his heart.
Then Chu Mo's voice reached his ears: "You can tell now, no need for telepathic communication, speak openly!"
