Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 500 - 514: The Soul Jade Pendant Shattered

"This person’s speed is incredibly fast, like nothing I’ve seen in my life!" the Crescent Sect Leader exclaimed.

After a few instances of instant teleportation, Chu Linfeng was already hundreds of miles away. He stopped on a mountaintop, not because he didn’t want to continue teleporting, but because he didn’t know where to go next. Wandering aimlessly was less productive than sitting down quietly to think things through.

"Sister Yue’Er, what information did you get from that person in black?" Chu Linfeng asked at this moment.

After a while, Sword Spirit finally replied, "Haha, I thought you forgot about this! You’re only asking now. Are you unsure where to go?"

Chu Linfeng knew that Sword Spirit was connected to his soul and understood his thoughts clearly, so he smiled and said, "How could I forget something so important? Sister Yue’Er, please tell me quickly!"

"That person in black might be a puppet of the Dark Forces. The information he knew wasn’t much, and his mind was marked with a Soul Mark. I could only unlock a part of it, so the information I could gather was naturally limited," Sword Spirit said.

"Soul Mark? What is that? This kind of power turned out to be merely a puppet? Wasn’t he called a Protector? If even a Protector is a puppet, who knows how many puppets there are?" Chu Linfeng wondered aloud.

"I’m not entirely clear on the situation. If someone forcefully removes the Soul Mark, that person would die instantly, making it impossible to get any information. The one who set the Soul Mark in his mind was probably a Demon General, a feat only people from Ancient Times could accomplish.

This person had a codename called ’No. 3’. There are ten codenames in the Dark Forces, and their power all reaches the First Layer of Saint Martial Realm, or possibly higher—I’m not very sure.

There are also ten Hall Masters, but I don’t know how they are distributed. However, one thing is very important to you: the Dark Forces have six Elders, who should be those six Demon Generals. Among them, two are in charge of orchestrating operations, while the other four are in seclusion. As for their so-called master, the Lonely Demon Venerable, there is no information at all," Sword Spirit explained thoroughly to Chu Linfeng.

Chu Linfeng slightly furrowed his brows after hearing this. The Dark Forces indeed seemed extraordinary; they had ten individuals at the power of the First Layer of Saint Martial Realm. If these people wanted to destroy any of the Nine Major Sects, it wouldn’t be difficult. Why would they choose to annihilate minor sects first?

"By the way, do you know their exact location? If conditions permit, I could join forces with other Major Sects to lay siege to them, bringing peace to the Canglan Ancient Land for a long time," Chu Linfeng quickly suggested.

"I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. This is likely very top secret. All that was known in his mind was that it’s a palace, a palace built underground, with no concrete location," Sword Spirit said.

"Well, obtaining this information is already good. We will have a life-and-death battle with them sooner or later. For now, I should return and see how the Green Frost Sect’s expansion is going. After this event, I believe the Dark Forces will recede for a while," Chu Linfeng decided.

He then spread his form and flew toward the direction of the Green Frost Sect. With instant teleportation, he covered hundreds of miles in a few breaths, with the wind howling past his ears and the scenery constantly changing before his eyes.

A sudden sharp pain surged through his mind, stopping him abruptly. Disjointed images appeared in his mind—a scene of people in black annihilating a sect.

This was a result of his Soul Jade Pendant being crushed. Based on the images’ location in his mind, Chu Linfeng knew it was the Celestial Star Valley less than a thousand miles away, a quite powerful second-rate sect.

No time to waste, Chu Linfeng executed consecutive instant teleportation. In the past, covering these thousand miles might have taken him over half an hour, but now, needing only five or six instant teleportations, the distance progressively increased with each teleport, considerably reducing the time, taking less than three minutes in total.

When Chu Linfeng arrived, he saw a group of people in black ruthlessly slaughtering and draining the life out of the people in Celestial Star Valley in broad daylight. Many had already fallen into pools of blood, with some reduced to blackened human skins after being drained.

With a thought, he drew his Cyan Frost Sword, unleashing furious Sword Qi and killing three people in black in a few breaths.

Chu Linfeng’s appearance took the people in black by surprise; they couldn’t understand how such a powerful figure showed up. Several prepared to besiege him, but with their strength only around the Seventh and Eighth Layers of the Divine Martial Realm, they were no match for Chu Linfeng.

A single Tyrant Slash instantly killed several, their bodies and limbs flying, but soon dissolving into a black mist, creating an eerie atmosphere.

Witnessing Chu Linfeng’s performance, the people of Celestial Star Valley were overjoyed. Here was their savior; as long as he was present, their lives seemed secure.

At this moment, a man in black addressed Chu Linfeng, "Kid, this isn’t the place for you. If you want to stand out, you should weigh the consequences first. Let this Protector see what you’re made of!"

Chu Linfeng glanced at the man in black, then smiled, "You might not qualify for my curiosity. I wonder which number you are—not No. 1, are you? Even if your Elders were here, I wouldn’t take them seriously, let alone a puppet under control."

Chu Linfeng’s words clearly shook the man in black, startling him that this supposedly secret information was known by this young man, indicating his unusual nature, warranting caution.

Uninterested in further chatter, Chu Linfeng activated his Cyan Frost Sword, releasing a cyan Sword Aura. Instantly, he performed Soul Slash, hoping to extract more information from the man in black.

By wounding the opponent’s soul, his attack power was temporarily nullified, leaving the minor threats to be of no concern.

Seeing Chu Linfeng move, the man in black also sprang into action. His speed was astonishing, releasing powerful Sword Qi from his blade, causing the space to ripple violently. From this, the man in black’s power was clearly more than just the First Layer of the Saint Martial Realm.

Unfortunately, he encountered Chu Linfeng. Although his strike was powerful and landed precisely on Chu Linfeng, Chu Linfeng’s Cyan Frost Sword also struck him.

Surrounding Celestial Star Valley disciples witnessed their savior being struck with such formidable attack power, realizing that even with his prowess, it was impossible to withstand, reviving the despair within them once more...
