Chapter 396 I Established a Sect in the Cultivation World (25)
His gaze was fixed on Zhou Jue, and the pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator pressed down on Zhou Jue without reservation.
"Hand over what you got inside!"
His words immediately caused an uproar at the scene.
"What? She got the inheritance?"
"It was her! I was wondering why I felt like someone was missing!"
"How did she, a Golden Core cultivator at the Great Perfection stage, get in?"
"Never mind how she got in! She got the inheritance! It belongs to all of us!"
"Young man, I advise you to hand over the inheritance!"
Greed instantly triumphed over reason.
The hundreds of cultivators present moved forward in unison, surrounding Zhou Jue, their eyes flashing with undisguised covetousness and killing intent.
Among them were even two other Nascent Soul stage cultivators hidden in the crowd. At this moment, they no longer concealed themselves, and their powerful auras locked onto Zhou Jue, cutting off all her escape routes.
Three Nascent Soul cultivators, dozens of Core Formation cultivators, and over a hundred Golden Core cultivators.
This is a terrifying lineup capable of crushing any second-rate sect.
Under such immense pressure, Zhou Jue's face turned deathly pale in an instant, and his body even trembled slightly.
She glanced at the Nascent Soul cultivator who was leading the group, then at the menacing crowd around her. Her lips trembled, and her voice was trembling with tears.
"Seniors... fellow Daoists... I... I don't know anything!"
She raised her hands, looking as if she was about to cry from fright.
"I was just lucky. I accidentally found a dog hole... no, a crack and crawled in. Before I even got halfway in, the ladder collapsed, and I was pushed out by a force... I really didn't get anything!"
Her acting was so realistic that some cultivators began to have doubts.
"Hmph! Still trying to argue!"
The leader, a Nascent Soul cultivator, remained unmoved and let out a cold laugh.
"Do you take me for a three-year-old child? How could the inheritance of the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Palace be so trivial? If you really hadn't obtained anything, you would have already been swept into the void by the collapsing secret realm and turned into dust!"
He took a step forward, his aura intensifying.
"I'm giving you one last chance! Hand over your storage artifact so we can inspect it! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and cruel, even to the point of searching your soul!"
"Yes! Hand over the storage artifact!"
"Make her hand over the things!"
The crowd became noisy again.
The look of despair on Zhou Jue's face deepened. She looked around at those greedy eyes, and her body trembled even more violently.
"Okay...okay...I'll hand it over...I'll hand it over to you, senior?"
She trembled as if she was about to take off the storage ring from her hand.
"Who does he think he is? If anyone should be handed over, it should be me!" Another Nascent Soul cultivator released his pressure without hesitation.
"Fellow Daoist, you jest. I think it's better if I keep this storage ring safe." The last Nascent Soul cultivator also released his pressure.
At this moment, the three Nascent Soul stage cultivators were on guard, and everyone held their breath.
The leader, a Nascent Soul cultivator, had a fierce glint in his eyes. He was ready to snatch the ring the moment Zhou Jue handed it over.
Zhou Jue trembled even more violently, unable to remove the ring despite his shaky hands. Just as one of the Nascent Soul cultivators became impatient and was about to forcibly take it from him...
Rumble—!!!
The entire secret realm let out its final lament.
The sky, the earth, and the distant floating islands all shattered at this moment!
Spatial rifts spread wildly around everyone! An irresistible teleportation force enveloped each and every one of them!
Chance!
Now!
All the cowardice, fear, and helplessness in Zhou Jue's eyes vanished without a trace in that instant, and the cultivation aura that she had been suppressing at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage suddenly erupted!
"What?!"
The smug look on the face of the Nascent Soul cultivator closest to her instantly froze!
This aura... is clearly that of someone in the Nascent Soul stage! Moreover, it's even more powerful than his!
Zhou Jue didn't give him any time to react.
Just as the teleportation power was about to activate, she stomped her foot and, using the recoil from the burst of her cultivation, transformed into a streak of light, tearing a gap in the encirclement of the three Nascent Soul cultivators and shooting out in the opposite direction from Cloud City!
The light of the teleportation flashed, then dimmed instantly.
All the cultivators in the square were teleported back to the west gate of Cloud City.
However, the three Nascent Soul cultivators did not hesitate at all the moment the teleportation was completed. They immediately transformed into three long rainbows and frantically chased after the direction where Zhou Jue disappeared!
"She's actually at the Nascent Soul stage!"
"My God! A Nascent Soul cultivator actually pretended to be a Golden Core cultivator, playing dumb to fool the enemy!"
"That's so insidious! That woman is so insidious!"
"No wonder! No wonder she was able to inherit the legacy, I knew it!"
The remaining Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators who had been teleported back looked at the four streaks of light disappearing on the distant horizon, their faces pale and their backs soaked with cold sweat.
They then realized that they had just been besieging a Nascent Soul cultivator and even attempting to kill him and steal his treasure.
Upon thinking about this, many people's legs went weak, and they almost collapsed to the ground.
On the other side.
Zhou Jue pushed her speed to the limit. She didn't look back, but her divine sense could clearly feel three powerful auras behind her, relentlessly pursuing her.
"Want to date me? Dream on!"
She gave a cold laugh and suddenly stopped in mid-air above a desolate mountain range.
The Nascent Soul cultivator at the front was overjoyed to see this, thinking that her spiritual power was insufficient.
"Where do you think you're going!"
He roared and increased his speed again.
Just as he was about to catch up, Zhou Jue took out a teleportation talisman and teleported away.
Where are they?!
Two Nascent Soul cultivators followed closely behind, hovering where Zhou Jue had disappeared. They scanned the area with their divine sense hundreds of times, but found nothing.
It was as if that person had never existed.
"Damn it! She got away!"
"Space Teleportation Talisman!"
"Send the message out! A city-wide manhunt! I refuse to believe she can sprout wings and escape!"
Zhou Jue was teleported to a dense forest. Without thinking twice, he entered the space directly.
Inside the secret box, Zhou Jue sat cross-legged and breathed a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, there were only three Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
"Sister, you're back!" Jingbai immediately rushed over, looking her up and down.
"Where are those bad guys outside?"
“I’ve shaken her off.” Zhou Jue rubbed her head.
“We’ll be staying in this space for a while. You can play around or cultivate,” Zhou Jue said to Jing Bai.
She rubbed her still slightly throbbing head; there was just too much knowledge to process!
The outside world will definitely be in an uproar because she has obtained the inheritance. There might even be several major sects that are after her. It's good that she stays in the space during this time to truly digest this inheritance.
