Blue Card Starry Sky

Chapter 166 Crisis
In the desolate city of Tianhuang, Haotian Yang was meditating in the ancestral temple when suddenly a newly lit lamp in front of him went out!

The entire hall fell silent instantly, the once magnificent ancestral temple now shrouded in a somber gray, highlighting its desolation. This situation signified that the desolate region had lost another demon emperor, and a guardian of the ancestral temple.

Hao Tianyang's heart trembled. The calamity of the desolate region had arrived! There would be no peace here.

……

When Lan Tian summoned the Divine Sword of Light, Xiao Yuhao was no longer calm! He stood there, stunned, watching Lan Tian slay the Heavenly Essence Bull Demon King, showing no surprise whatsoever. At this moment, something was tormenting Xiao Yuhao's heart, while everyone else was oblivious to his actions, completely captivated by Lan Tian's victory.

"Blue Sky, take the Heavenly Essence Bull Demon King's Origin Pill, along with its armor and those horns."

Zhao Qingyun gave the order to Lan Tian. A Demon Emperor's Origin Pill is a priceless treasure, the best item for cultivation, capable of improving cultivation level and realm. It's many times better than a blue Origin Pill, because this is a Demon Emperor's golden Origin Pill.

"Yes, Master."

Lan Tian received his master's order, and carrying the Divine Sword of Light, he went straight to the corpse of the Heavenly Spirit Bull Demon King, removing his armor, equipment, and weapons.

Next, Lan Tianyi chopped off the pair of horns of the Heavenly Essence Bull Demon King, dismembered it, and extracted the golden Origin Pill. It shimmered with golden light and pulsated with abundant energy; truly a priceless treasure.

"Elder Xiao, we'll keep the Origin Pill! You can have the horns, and my disciple can have the armor. What do you think?"

Zhao Qingyun told Xiao Yuhao that the Origin Pill was the most precious treasure, and he would never give it to anyone else. He even hoped to use it to break through the Venerable Realm and advance to the God Realm!

Seeing that Zhao Qingyun had no intention of distributing the spoils fairly, Xiao Yuhao didn't dare to force the issue. After all, they were powerful, and they were the ones who had killed the Heavenly Essence Bull Demon King. Getting two horns was already quite good. With that in mind, he stopped paying attention to anything else and was naturally happy to accept it.

"Lord Zhao saved my life, how could I possibly share this favor! You should keep it!" Xiao Yuhao said with a smile, though he seemed reluctant, he was also generous.

"Hahaha, these horns are yours now, don't say anything more!"

After Zhao Qingyun finished speaking, he grabbed the horn and handed it to Xiao Yuhao, his face beaming with joy. This trip to the desolate region had been incredibly fruitful.

Lan Tian also put the corpse of the Heavenly Essence Bull Demon King into the space-time ring. The Demon King's body would definitely be of great use, so he kept it safe.

"Elder Xiao, how did you come to encounter the Demon Emperor? What exactly happened?" Zhao Qingyun was very interested in Xiao Yuhao's encounter with the Demon Emperor. He then listened as Xiao Yuhao recounted their experience in detail.

It turned out that Xiao Yuhao led many disciples of the Church of Light to the Desolate Region. They witnessed the unsealing of the Desolate Region and the benefits of killing demonic beasts together when they first entered. They wanted to find the Demon Emperor and extract the golden Origin Pill, so they ventured deep into the Desolate Region. In a deep abyss mountain range, they discovered a city. The city was very large, heavily guarded, and had a large population. There were countless demonic beasts, and the economy and society were quite good. The streets were bustling, and the buildings were tall, magnificent, and grand.

Xiao Yuhao and his group infiltrated the city and discovered that a demon emperor was guarding it. Moreover, this demon emperor had only recently been promoted to the rank of emperor, so his strength should not be too high. Therefore, they decided to risk killing this demon emperor to extract the golden primordial pill.

That night, Xiao Yuhao led the members of the Church of Light in a night raid on the Demon Emperor's residence.

Due to the overwhelming number of opponents, Xiao Yuhao and his companions gradually became outmatched in the battle and had to retreat quickly. Fighting their way back, everyone struggled desperately, but ultimately they were no match for the Demon Emperor's immense power, which completely overwhelmed them. Only Xiao Yuhao managed to escape, but the Demon Emperor relentlessly pursued him all the way to the buffer zone. The rest, as we all know, is history!
After listening to Xiao Yuhao's explanation, Zhao Qingyun pondered for a while. The problem was indeed serious. The city's garrison, seeing their leader hadn't returned for so long, would surely come out to search for him. This place was already very unsafe, and the desolate region would definitely be in turmoil. They had lost a Demon Emperor; their revenge would be extremely severe. It was best to leave this place as soon as possible, leave this unstable desolate region, and return to the Spirit Hall to make further plans!
Immediately, Zhao Qingyun urged everyone to return to the Blue Card Continent and leave this place, not to linger for even a second longer.

Xiao Yuhao followed the Spirit Hall members and quickly evacuated the area, rapidly passing through the buffer zone back to the Blue Card Continent.

The Wasteland has now been unsealed, and people can enter it from the Blue Card Continent at any time. However, it is unknown whether the Demon Emperor of the Wasteland can easily enter the Blue Card Continent. If a high-level emperor of the Wasteland can enter the Blue Card Continent, it will be a disaster for the Blue Card Continent, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhao Qingyun had already foreseen the danger. The Blue Card Continent was bound to face a great disaster. Before that happened, he had to make sure everyone improved their cultivation and advanced their ranks so that they could better protect themselves and maintain the existence and growth of the Spirit Hall.

Once they left the desolate region, Zhao Qingyun parted ways with Xiao Yuhao and returned to their respective places.

Zhao Qingyun led the Spirit Hall members to quickly evacuate the area and flew back to Nalan City at top speed.

"Blue Sky, something big is about to happen on the Blue Card Continent. You've seen what happened in the Desolate Region. Their Demon Emperor will definitely break through that bottleneck and invade the Blue Card Continent. Who knows what will happen then! Right now, we must break through to the God Realm as soon as possible in order to resist the attacks from all sides, protect the Blue Card Continent, and prevent the Spirit Hall from being destroyed."

Zhao Qingyun placed high hopes on Lan Tian, ​​wishing he could enter the Holy Mountain to cultivate and break through to the God Realm. Only in this way could the Blue Card Continent be preserved and the Spirit Hall protected. Therefore, Zhao Qingyun entrusted everything to Lan Tian, ​​and he and several other elders at the peak of the Venerable Realm went to the Holy Mountain to cultivate and break through to the God Realm.

Lan Tian understood the current crisis on the Blue Card Continent from Zhao Qingyun's words and felt a great sense of responsibility. He opened the gate to the Holy Mountain, allowing his master Zhao Qingyun and the others to take the golden Origin Pills to cultivate and break through to the God Realm. This time, all the elders who had a chance to break through to the God Realm went to the Holy Mountain to cultivate.

Currently, only Lan Tian oversees the daily affairs of the Spirit Hall in Nalan City. Before Zhao Qingyun entered the Holy Mountain, he had completely handed over the Spirit Hall to Lan Tian, ​​and the entire Blue Card Continent is now in turmoil!

Ambitious individuals flocked to the desolate region, which has now become the greatest adventure destination. Not far from the desolate region, a small town called Qilin Town became a bridgehead to the desolate region. It was bustling with activity, with a constant flow of people. Mercenaries, bandits, pirates, and all sorts of people gathered here. Various forces and sects had established strongholds and communication offices here.
