Chapter 318: Come, Play (2)
The furthest distance in this world was not between heaven and earth, life and death. It was when a treasure was right in front of you, but you could not touch it.
At this moment, a few more figures flew over.
“It’s someone from the Ye family!” Gongshu Ling frowned. He recognized the person at a glance as someone from the Ye family. The person in the lead was the Ye family’s Saint expert, Ye Cang.
“Stop!” Gongshu Ling led everyone to quickly stop the Ye Family.
“Gongshu Ling, what are you doing?” Ye Cang asked coldly.
“This Dusk Drum was found by my Gongshu family first. It already belongs to my Gongshu family. You guys better go back to where you came from!” Gongshu Ling said coldly.
“Hmph, then why don’t you take this drum away? Ridiculous. This Dusk Drum is ownerless. It belongs to whoever obtains it. Also, my Ye family is here to obtain this drum for Li Yu. Don’t you dare block the way!” Ye Cang said coldly.
“For Cultivator Li?” Gongshu Ling raised his brows. As the saint of the Gongshu family, he naturally knew who the statue worshiped in the Gongshu family’s temple was.
Furthermore, according to the family head, the search for the Dusk Drum was for Li Yu.
After all, they could tell that Li Yu possessed four of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda’s treasures, and he would definitely collect them.
“What a coincidence. My Gongshu family is also here to find this drum for Cultivator Li!” Gongshu Ling smiled.
“In that case, let’s compete fairly and see who can collect this drum first!” Ye Cang sneered. His gaze had already seen the words on the stone tablet below the Dusk Drum.
“Dream on!” Gongshu Ling still did not intend to give in. After all, they were the ones who found it first, and they were unwilling to hand it over to others.
“Then don’t blame me for being merciless!” Ye Cang frowned as magic power instantly surged out.
Gongshu Ling snorted and formed hand seals to attack first.
However, just as Gongshu Ling and Ye Cang were fighting, a neigh resounded through the sky. A large red bird descended from the sky. The bird seemed to be condensed from blood, and its entire body emitted a stench.
An old woman in a red robe sat cross-legged on the bird’s head.
Behind the old woman stood eight figures wearing red robes and red masks.
“People from the Blood Soul World!” Gongshu Ling’s expression changed when he saw who it was. He immediately recognized that these people were from the Blood Soul World.
As for the old woman in the red robe, she was likely the red-robed Sovereign of the Blood Soul World—Granny Lu Lan.
At the moment, Granny Lu Lan was holding a string of prayer beads in her hand. One of the beads emitted an extraordinary light, and mysterious runes were faintly discernible inside.
It was the Coral Empress Prayer Beads of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda. There was a magical connection between the various magic treasures of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda. Granny Lu Lan had used the Coral Empress Prayer Beads to find this place.
“Kekeke… This Dusk Drum belongs to our Blood Soul World!” Granny Lu Lan laughed eccentrically.
The Sovereign Realm domain instantly enveloped the surroundings, causing the faces of Gongshu Ling, Ye Cang, and the others to turn pale. Their bodies seemed to be restrained by an invisible force.
Seeing the arrival of the Blood Soul World’s Sovereign Realm expert, Gongshu Ling and Ye Cang immediately stopped. Clearly, with this person around, it was meaningless for the two of them to fight.
Everyone frowned as they looked at Granny Lu Lan, wondering if this person could pull the Dusk Drum.
Granny Lu Lan flew in front of the Dusk Drum and formed hand seals. The powerful magic power of the Sovereign Realm instantly enveloped the Dusk Drum, and a hand seal flew towards it.
However, the golden light on the surface of the Dusk Drum flickered a few times, but it did not make any sound. It even bounced the hand seal back.
Upon seeing this, Granny Lu Lan’s messy brows furrowed together, and the wrinkles on her face twitched slightly. A cold glint flickered in her eyes as she looked at the stone tablet below the Dusk Drum.
Immediately, she waved his hand, and the prayer beads in her hand flew up. The Coral Empress Prayer Beads instantly enlarged, emitting rays of light as circles of ripples appeared in space.
“Go!” Granny Lu Lan shouted. The prayer beads immediately smashed towards the Dusk Drum like a meteor.
Blast!
A terrifying magic power exploded, causing the world to tremble. The mountain under the stone tablet continued to collapse.
The violent magic power shockwave and the Coral Empress Prayer Beads rolled over and headed for Granny Lu Lan.
Granny Lu Lan’s expression changed as she immediately used a defensive divine power to block the incoming attack.
“It’s still not enough!” Granny Lu Lan’s expression darkened, and she did not attack again.
At this point, Gongshu Ling and Ye Cang’s expressions relaxed. They were relieved. It seemed that Granny Lu Lan could not do anything to the Dusk Drum.
However, the two of them were curious about how they could move the Dusk Drum.
At this moment, another group of figures flew over. They were all tall and burly, and they were wearing black scales.
However, the person in the lead was a tall, beautiful, and valiant woman.
Her black hair was like a waterfall, and her face was like the rosy clouds reflecting the snow. Her skin was ice-cold, and there was a trace of valor in her coldness.
The tight armor accentuated her proud figure, and her two beautiful legs were long and straight.
She was the magnificent Dragon King Hall’s talented dragon girl, Ao Bing. She was Ao Ying’s older sister and an intermediate-stage Great Saint.
Ao Bing was the first team sent by the Dragon King Hall to search for the Dusk Drum.
Later on, after the Pan Emperor Sword was on the rankings, the old ancestor of the Dragon King Hall, Ao Wujin, rushed over with his men and split up with them to find the Dusk Drum and the Pan Emperor Void Sword.
Unexpectedly, they suddenly heard the sound of fighting not far away, and then they sensed powerful magic power fluctuations.
