Chapter 626 Solely Occupying the Seven-Color Treasure Location (1/2)

As the people of various sects swiftly retreated, the tense atmosphere in the area faded, and the surging undercurrents disappeared.

Chu Qing and Li Qingchan breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the people of Sacred Palace retreat. Although they had held the initiative, it would still be troublesome if they were to fight to the death with the Sacred Palace.

But fortunately, given Jiang Taishen’s rationality, it was unlikely for him to do something like that.

“Continue to defend the boundary,” Chu Qing said, looking over in Yaoyao’s direction.

Although the Sacred Palace had retreated, they still couldn’t completely relax their vigilance. If someone were to sneak in, it would be extremely troublesome.

Yaoyao clasped the Genesis Rune Brush, and a flicker of spirit light condensed at its tip. With a gentle shake, there was suddenly a number of Genesis Runes emerging, fusing with the boundary ahead.

The boundary rippled, and the dazzling light grew a little duller.

The boundary was temporarily in a defensive state, and the consumption of Genesis Qi was lessened, but it could still be immediately awakened if needed.

Chu Qing and the other Chosen, upon seeing this scene, instantly left the boundary nodes and came to the valley mouth in a flash.

With a dark face, Chi Lei of the Sacred Palace watched the numerous Cangxuan Sect Chosen arrive. He couldn’t help but panic a little, and he even retreated repeatedly.

Chu Qing smiled at him and said, “Zhao Zhu, go and seal his Genesis Qi.”

Zhao Zhu headed towards Chi Lei when he heard the order. The expression in Chi Lei’s eyes changed constantly, but under the watchful eyes of the countless Cangxuan Sect Chosen, he dared not fight back. He had no choice but to let Zhao Zhu temporarily seal his Genesis Qi.

“If you work with us, we will release you once we have finished harvesting the seven-color treasure location. But if you try any tricks, don’t blame us for being ruthless,” Chu Qing warned.

Although Chi Lei had become a hostage, Chu Qing also understood that they couldn’t do much to him because that would completely infuriate the Sacred Palace.

Chi Lei’s face was dark, but he did not utter a word. He also understood that if he were to try something, it would be the same as asking for trouble. After all, no matter how many tricks he had up his sleeve, there was no way he could block so many Cangxuan Sect Chosen.

Chi Lei turned away. He went far away and picked up Chai Ying, who was still unconscious. With frustration, he kicked Chai Ying to the side.

After dealing with Chi Lei, Chu Qing and Li Qingchan turned to Zhou Yuan with a look of surprise in their eyes.

“Junior brother Zhou Yuan, you’ve been hiding yourself deeply.” Chu Qing chuckled.

Any ordinary Chosen would be afraid of the power that Zhou Yuan had used to crush Chai Ying’s golden black pill.

“What did you use just now? How could you make your own Genesis Qi grow that strong? It doesn’t seem to be a Genesis technique from our Cangxuan Sect?” Kong Sheng asked, staring at Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan frowned, giving Kong Sheng a calm stare, and paid no more attention to him.

But Li Qingchan moved her red lips and answered, “Senior brother Kong Sheng, every person has their own opportunities. Our Cangxuan Sect also has no rule that disciples must only cultivate the sect’s techniques.”
