Aotian slowly opened his eyes, a flash of brilliance disappearing deep within them.
A breath of white mist escaped from Aotian's throat, and a faint smile appeared on his face:
"The Heaven Devouring Seal truly lives up to its reputation as one of the rare divine artifacts in the world. Just one night of cultivation is enough to match nearly ten days of my hard work."
After one night of cultivation, Aotian noticed that his Transformation Technique had grown significantly stronger. This made Aotian even more satisfied with the Heaven Devouring Seal.
No wonder the teacher wanted him to subdue the Heaven Devouring Seal; it was practically a "cultivation cheat."
Outside Desolate City, four people were gathered together.
"Uncle Xiao, Hong'er, Senior Tan, Aotian has important matters at home and must take his leave!" Aotian said, cupping his hands in front of the three.
Xiao Ya nodded and said, "Go ahead. We'll meet in Ning City!"
Aotian looked at Xiao Hong'er’s tear-red eyes filled with reluctance, and his heart softened. He gently patted Xiao Hong'er’s head and said, "Hong'er, big brother will come to see you again in the future. You must listen to your father, okay?"
"Mm, big brother, you must come!" Xiao Hong'er’s tone was filled with reluctance.
Aotian felt a pang in his nose and then clasped his fists toward the three before turning and leaving...
As the time for the Aotian Family Annual Meeting drew closer, Aotian decided not to delay any longer. After resting for a day in Desolate City, he continued on his way to Ning City.
Inside a secret chamber, several people sat facing each other.
"Father, that bastard has already left Desolate City. What should we do?" a young voice spoke up; it was Amusement.
Rogue tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of his chair without responding, seemingly lost in thought.
“Rogue, are you really planning to give up on that relic?” A somewhat weak female voice sounded, it was Shangguan Jin.
“Hmph, give up? How is that possible!” Rogue snorted.
“So what should we do now?”
“Wait until Xiao Ya leaves Desolate City, then we’ll secretly follow them. Once we reach the destination, do we still need that map?” Rogue said with a sly smile.
“Father is wise! But what about that Bastard?” Amusement continued to ask, clearly still harboring resentment over being knocked back by Aotian with a single punch.
Rogue frowned and pondered for a moment before coldly saying, “That Bastard cannot be left alive; otherwise, he will become a hidden danger for us sooner or later!”
“Father, I will take people to ambush him right away!” Upon hearing Rogue's words, Amusement immediately responded.
Just as she was about to turn and leave the secret chamber, Rogue suddenly said, “No! The Wolf Fang Adventure Team must be keeping a close watch on us, fearing that we might retaliate against that Bastard in secret. Therefore, we cannot make a move!”
Amusement paused slightly and said, “Then what should we do? Are we really going to let him go?”
“Let him go? That’s impossible! Send someone to the Iron Sand Adventure Team to deliver a message, asking Iron Sand Cold to take people and deal with that kid!” Rogue's face was filled with darkness.
“Haha, Father is brilliant! I will go arrange it right away!”
“Hehe, kid, you can only blame yourself for meddling…”
On a hillside, Aotian stood quietly. A gentle breeze blew through, lifting his black hair and white robe. From a distance, Aotian appeared quite carefree and ethereal at this moment.
A gentle breeze passed by, and the surroundings fell into silence. This silence, however, brought a chilling feeling, as if some danger lurked nearby.
"You've been following me for so long; it's about time you showed yourself," Aotian said calmly.
After a moment of silence, figures began to surround Aotian.
Aotian looked at these people with indifference, his eyes filled with tranquility, showing no signs of disturbance.
"No wonder even Rogue fears this person; he truly has some skills!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out. A middle-aged man appeared before Aotian.
The middle-aged man wore a black robe that made him appear somewhat bulky; however, the aura emanating from him indicated to Aotian that this man was a master of the Innate Realm.
When Aotian saw this middle-aged man, his gaze slightly sharpened. This man's strength was likely not inferior to that of Shangguan Jin...
"Who are you? I don't believe I've seen you before," Aotian said in a deep voice.
The middle-aged man replied lightly, "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Iron Sand Cold, the captain of the Iron Sand Adventure Team!"
Aotian maintained his composure, but inside he was genuinely surprised. The name of the Iron Sand Adventure Team held considerable weight in Desolate City.
According to Xiao Ya, the reputation of the Iron Sand Adventure Team was second only to that of the Wolf Fang Adventure Team and the Breaking Army Adventure Team. Its captain, Iron Sand Cold, was an Innate Eightfold warrior, and even Xiao Ya held a degree of apprehension towards him.
"I wonder why Captain Iron has blocked my path. Is there something you need?" Aotian asked lightly.
"Smart as you are, can you not guess the purpose of our grand gathering?" A hint of mockery glimmered in Iron Sand Cold's eyes.
Aotian's pupils slightly constricted, and his voice turned cold:
"You are actually members of the Iron Sand Adventure Team?"
"No, no, no. The Iron Sand Adventure Team is just the Iron Sand Adventure Team; it has nothing to do with the Breaking Army Adventure Team. It's just that someone offered a high price for your head, and I couldn't resist!" Iron Sand Cold snapped his fingers and said.
Aotian's expression instantly darkened. His eyes darted around, and his heart sank to the bottom.
There were a total of ten peak experts around, along with two Innate Martial Artists. One was Iron Sand Cold, the captain of the Iron Sand Adventure Team, and the other was his brother, Tiesha Lan.
Tiesha Lan was a lean middle-aged man, but he was also a genuine Innate Triple martial artist.
This battle looked grim!
"Kid, I advise you to surrender obediently. We have come out in full force to capture you; there's no way you can escape!"
At that moment, a rather lean middle-aged man suddenly appeared beside Iron Sand Cold and spoke to Aotian.
This man was none other than Tiesha Lan!
Aotian let out a long breath, as if trying to expel all the negative emotions from his heart.
"Go ahead; let me see what makes the Iron Sand Adventure Team so exceptional!"
Iron Sand Cold narrowed his eyes, a flash of killing intent passing through them. He waved one hand and shouted, "Attack!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tiesha Lan, standing beside him, sprang forward like a hunting leopard and appeared in front of Aotian in an instant.
"Such speed!"
Aotian's eyes widened as he suddenly thrust his right fist forward. The surrounding air exploded with the force of this punch.
Tiesha Lan let out a cold laugh and boldly raised her right fist, colliding fiercely with Aotian's fist.
"Boom!"
A dull sound of impact echoed, and a terrifying shockwave spread out from the point of collision between their fists, sending flying those Acquired Martial Artists who had intended to rush forward to help.
"Cough, cough..."
A sudden cough broke the silence, and everyone saw Tiesha Lan retreating, her arm that had collided with Aotian now numb and unable to move. The cough had come from Tiesha Lan herself. Clearly, in this clash, she had suffered a slight disadvantage.
On the other hand, Aotian's previously neat sleeves had inexplicably burst apart, revealing his fair skin. However, beneath that skin, a faint icy blue hue flickered, exuding an overwhelming aura.
Seeing Tiesha Lan at a disadvantage shocked Aotian as well. He knew very well that he hadn't activated the Transformation Technique just now; he had merely relied on his physical strength to push Tiesha Lan back. The Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body truly deserved its reputation as a Body Refinement Technique that even his teacher took seriously.
"Impressive skills; no wonder you could defeat Shangguan Jin!" Iron Sand Cold remarked darkly, observing his brother's slightly pale face.
