Chapter 129: Moon Angel Shines
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
At Dragon Gate there were many stone caves of different shapes and sizes. There were vicious-looking demons, pure buddhas, devils of legends, and all sorts of random things...
Under the moonlight, the area seemed really evil and devilish. It was extremely abnormal.
The army spread out and stopped around this place.
Long Yu looked around. His eyesight was really good and he could see clearly. Even under the moonlight, he could see things from hundreds of miles away.
Long Yu frowned and said unhappily, "Why are we stopping here and setting up camp?"
"Old Ancestor, we have traveled day and night, and the horses can't take it anymore. The horses need to stop to rest, and coincidentally, there is grass nearby to feed them." The invincible Dao Saint explained.
Long Yu frowned and had nothing to say.
The 30,000 horses had all become monsters after their bloodlines were modified.
But they galloped day and night without resting. They rushed from Shengjing over to Dragon Gate, so of course, they couldn't take it anymore.
Even if a Dao Saint dashed such a distance in a short time, he would have to rest.
This was why they set up camp here and allowed the horses to graze.
The tens of thousands of people gathered here and each of them was busy with their own things.
Mo Tiandi walked over and said, "We have confirmed the location of that world crosser."
Long Yu's eyes lit up and asked, "Where?"
"Black Soil Land!" Mo Tiandi said.
"He is still there?" Long Yu exclaimed.
"Right, a teleportation formation appeared over at Black Soil Land and someone saw the world crosser's subordinate there. We can be certain that they are there." Mo Tiandi nodded and said.
"He really is bold; is he looking down on us?" Long Yu was unhappy.
Mo Tiandi's expression was dark and sunken. "He really is bold. At least it saves us time searching for him. Tomorrow morning the army will move forwards toward the Black Soil Land to seal them all off. None of them will even be able to think about escaping at all."
"Right, where is priest Cow Nose?" Long Yu suddenly thought about someone and asked.
Mo Tiandi was jolted and recalled that Cow Nose still hadn't appeared.
"People from Celestial Path have already gathered with us. They said that he is here already, but we can't see him?" Mo Tiandi said unhappily.
"Damn!!!" Long Yu cursed furiously.
"How did this coward even cultivate to such a high realm?" Mo Tiandi was dispirited.
....
Under the moonlight, a black cloud descended and a body was hidden within.
"Haiz, what should I do now? I have tried several times to predict the future and my predictions are just too terrifying. I wouldn't dare to head down at all." The priest sighed and said helplessly.
He hid in the cloud and maintained a hundred-mile distance from them. Then, he hid his aura so that they wouldn't notice him.
The Taoists had a technique to peek into the secrets of heavens. When he started cultivating, this was the technique that he learned. Each time he was faced with a huge decision, he would carefully calculate and ponder. Especially when there were dangerous situations, he would definitely use this technique.
After 10,000 years, he had gotten very familiar and skilled in the technique and helped himself to avoid dozens of dangers.
Of course, there were many times where he missed opportunities but he didn't care.
Apart from this technique, he also cultivated a Constant Youth Celestial Technique. At the start, he had no combat strength at all, and even when he reached Heaven Essence Realm, he was the weakest in the realm. Also, his technique consumed the most time. Without strong willpower, one definitely wouldn't cultivate that technique.
The priest's cultivation focused on not taking risks, not fighting, not standing out, and not being greedy.
Just like that, he managed to outlive a whole bunch of people. He lived so long that he broke past Dao Saint and entered the next realm.
At such a time, the strength of Constant Youth Celestial Technique was on full display. The old priest was extremely strong now.
Of course, he knew that, but similarly, he felt that the people outsider were even stronger.
10,000 years of careful living and wary actions caused him to think about fleeing the moment he faced troubles.
Anyway, he cultivated the Constant Youth Celestial Technique, so his lifespan would be much longer than those of other people.
Even if you were to die and be reincarnated 10 times, I would still be alive, so why would I take the risk?
If he wasn't forced, he wouldn't have left the mountain.
Just as the old priest was about to prophesy the future, his brow jumped and he felt that something was off. He raised his head and through the black mist, he saw a person standing under the moon.
It was a girl!
A very beautiful girl!
Her figure was insane; the armor that stuck close to her body only protected her key areas. Those snow-white legs and extremely thin waist, that white jade-like neck...
The old priest was shocked. This woman was so beautiful that everyone couldn't help but look at her. Unfortunately, she wore a veil that covered her face.
"Who is she?" The old priest exclaimed.
In the next moment, he saw her raise her arms and slowly pull out a crescent blade.
Creak!
There was the sound of a blade coming out of its sheath. It was originally that of a crescent blade but as she slowly pulled it open, a silver moon appeared on top of her head.
"Damn, that is the Great Xia Dragonfinch!" The old priest recognized it right away. This Celestial Artifact was extremely famous in the Ancient Desolate Land.
"Who is she?" The old priest hid in the clouds and didn't dare to reveal himself at all.
....
"Who is this woman?" Long Yu asked. For such a woman to appear under the moonlight with the Great Xia Dragonfinch, of course, he noticed her.
Mo Tiandi was solemn, "Very strong. She isn't weaker than any of us."
"Great Xia Dragonfinch, that is our Great Xia Dragonfinch!" Xia Wuxu's face turned green as he pointed at the silver, moon-like blade and raged.
This was their Great Xia Dynasty's Great Xia Dragonfinch. A woman was actually using it. That was just preposterous!
Long Yu frowned, "Who are you and what is your relationship with the world crosser?"
He had to ask as she was on the same level as them. She wasn't a Dao Saint.
"I am here on orders from my Master to kill 10 Dao Saints!" Moon Angel Usuna held a corner of Full Moon with each hand and slashed down with it.
She didn't talk much and just attacked!
"Are you disregarding us?" Long Yu hollered in rage. He pulled out a huge map and tossed it forwards. It grew huge and wanted to trap Moon Angel in it.
Only
This was Long Yu's treasure artifact, Mountain River Map!
This was a strong treasure that he had nurtured for 10,000 years. Now that he was attacking, he didn't hold anything back.
The Mountain River Map became huge and covered the area, blocking Moon Angel's flight path. It started to shrink, wanting to capture Moon Angel.
If she fell in, Long Yu could do whatever he wanted.
But Moon Angel still charged in without any worries at all.
Long Yu was delighted. He thought that she was a fool to charge into his treasure space. Wasn't she just jumping into a trap?
But right away, there was the sound of something ripping. Along with a streak of moonlight, Long Yu's facial expression changed.
