After leaving Xia Xiaoyi's room, Wang Hao came out onto the street again. He looked up and saw Xia Xiaoyi standing above him. Their eyes met, and Xia Xiaoyi rolled her eyes and turned away.
"Damn it, I really owe you something." Wang Hao muttered, wandered around the City of Death a few times, and soon found the marks left by Qing Ran and Yan Qin. Following the marks, he arrived at a rather grand manor.
This mountain villa is a property belonging to the Burning Lamp Academy.
Wang Hao surveyed the area around the villa and, finding nothing unusual, entered the villa through its gate.
"Are you in danger? Why are you taking so long?" Shi Mengqi heard the commotion and ran out immediately, dressed in a moon-white snow-white robe, looking ethereal.
Wang Hao smiled and pinched her cheek. He took out a jade box from his storage ring, opened it, and took out a piece of spiritual flesh weighing more than 20 kilograms.
"I just killed a giant black wind python in the River Styx and extracted its spiritual flesh. After that, I encountered pursuers from the black market, but fortunately I escaped unharmed."
Shi Mengqi said, "The Black Wind Python is a mid-level fourth-tier ferocious beast, with strength comparable to a martial artist in the late stage of the Heaven Realm. Especially in the water, the Black Wind Python is even more powerful."
"I didn't expect you to be so strong now. This puts a lot of pressure on me."
Wang Hao laughed and said, "What pressure? I'll protect you. Everyone should be here by now. I ran into Xia Xiaoyi earlier. I need to talk to her about something when she gets here."
While they were waiting, the colorful parrot that Wang Hao and Shi Mengqi had brought back from the rainforest flew out of the house and landed directly on the spirit flesh, munching away.
It is much larger than a typical parrot. Even an adult tabby American Shorthair cat is only about the same size as this parrot.
A moment later, Xia Xiaoyi, Qing Ran, Shi Mengqi, Yan Bing, and Li Bo also arrived, and the six of them gathered together.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Wang Hao asked, "You've been in the City of Death for two days now. Have you noticed anything unusual?"
"Abnormal? What's abnormal?" Yan Bing asked casually.
Qingran's expression turned solemn as he said, "I have been to the City of Death twice before and know it quite well. But this time, I do feel that something is amiss!"
"Is something wrong?" Yan Bing still didn't believe it.
Qingran thought for a moment and said, "There are more experts in the City of Death. It feels like there is danger everywhere."
Even a master like Qingran can sense the danger in the city, which shows how terrifying this place is now, with hidden martial arts experts everywhere.
Immediately, everyone turned their attention to Wang Hao. Since he would ask such a question, it meant that he must know something that others did not.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Wang Hao said slowly and calmly, "The situation is quite serious now. It can be said that more than half of the experts in the entire black market of Tianxing are gathered here."
"What? What exactly happened in the City of Death? How could it have attracted so many black market experts?" Yan Bing exclaimed in surprise.
Li Bo's expression was solemn. He said, "There are indeed reports from the Burning Lamp Academy that a large number of experts have been mobilized from the black market. But isn't it a bit too exaggerated for the black market to gather more than half of its experts at the same time?"
"Even when the black market was fighting fiercely with the various academies, it didn't mobilize more than half of its top experts, and the structure within the black market is extremely complex."
"It gathers all sorts of forces from all walks of life. Even the superhuman behind the black market couldn't bring them together. Who has that kind of power?"
Wang Hao said, "You're right. Even the head of the black market wouldn't have this kind of power. But do you know that the remnant soul of the bone from Tianxing has already appeared in the world?"
"They have possessed many powerful individuals, including dozens of Heavenly Realm experts alone. Perhaps some of the current extraordinary individuals are among their people."
Everyone was stunned by these words. They were unaware of this news, but they knew a great deal about those remnant souls.
On the Heavenly Ghost Cliff of Tianxing, countless remnant souls wander. It is a place where danger and opportunity coexist. Once you can capture a remnant soul and refine it into a Soul Tablet, your cultivation will skyrocket.
However, countless martial artists and cultivators have remained there forever. Although they know that the remnant soul is aggressive, so far, no one has been heard of being possessed.
"Judging from your tone, you already know who has been possessed?" Yan Qin's voice came from outside the door. She had just gone to take care of some things and told everyone not to wait for her.
Wang Hao nodded and said, "It's about Yin Yi, the young master of the black market, who has been possessed. I guess his cultivation level isn't high, maybe only around the Great Perfection of the Earth Realm."
"But their methods are definitely not weak, and they certainly have the ability to kill Heaven Realm experts. It seems that they possessed Yin Yi's remnant soul and their identity is very unusual. They have gathered many of their possessed subordinates."
"Below him are seven holy envoys, who also seem to be very powerful. However, so far, only two of them have appeared, so overall..."
“Our opponents are no longer the people of Tianxing, but those ancient powerhouses. Although their cultivation has not yet recovered, they certainly have many tricks up their sleeves.”
Yan Qin asked, puzzled, "Why have all these powerful body-snatchers suddenly gathered here?"
Wang Hao said, "Because of a treasure, the Dragon Relic."
"What is that? A dragon relic?" Everyone was very puzzled.
So Wang Hao explained the origin of the dragon relic to them, and after listening, everyone became excited once again.
"Although I don't know what the Upper Realm is, since it's from a dragon, the wine must be of high quality. If I can drink it, I estimate I can suppress Li Xu with one hand," Yan Bing said with ecstasy.
Li Bo rolled his eyes at him and said, "The energy in the dragon relic is immense. If you swallow it in one gulp, you will definitely explode and die instantly."
Yan Bingdao said, "Even if we can't get the dragon relic, if we can find the corpse of the golden dragon, we can take a few drops of dragon blood from the dragon's corpse and use the dragon blood to temper our bodies."
"Then my physique will definitely be upgraded to a higher level, or even several levels higher. At that time, even the physical body of a Nascent Soul cultivator will probably not be as strong as mine."
Yan Bing's words deeply moved everyone present.
Dragons are legendary creatures. Although mythical creatures are constantly being proven in this era, none of them have ever seen one. If it really is a golden dragon, that would be an incredible opportunity.
Wang Hao was also very tempted. The young dragons of the Immortal Realm were born with the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm, and their physiques were incredibly powerful. With cultivation, they would become even stronger. Moreover, that referred to dragons with mixed bloodlines.
Those dragons with pure bloodlines are even more powerful. Some of them are born with a cultivation level close to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and for them, overcoming tribulations is a piece of cake.
The Golden Dragon is not only a pure-blooded dragon, but also a dragon with terrifying and unparalleled cultivation. If one could obtain its blood, even just a drop, it would be of immeasurable benefit to a young cultivator.
Even the usually calm Li Bo had a fanatical look in her eyes at this moment.
