At this point of the battle, the power of Su Zimo's Inner Core was already depleted.
The dragon scales on his body faded gradually and he returned to his original appearance in front of countless gazes. His black hair fluttered and his eyes were clear – he looked like a refined scholar.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have imagined that the ten-zhang tall, gargantuan body that resembled a great ancient demon, the existence that was covered in dragon scales, the imposing gaze, and the ferocious claws and fangs were actually this delicate scholar before them.
Who would have thought that this frightening calamity was almost resolved by this seemingly frail scholar?
He had turned the tides and saved the day!
That was the number one of the Phenomenon Ranking!
This battle had a huge impact on the surviving cultivators.
It was not only in terms of cultivation and mental state. Many cultivators' understanding of Tianhuang Mainland, the cultivation world and the ten thousand races had changed as well.
Many cultivators finally realized the gap between them and the Primordial Nine Races.
Although they were of the same cultivation realm, they could not even resist against the Protoss and Rakshasa race!
Su Zimo's body swayed and a sense of weakness spread through his body. His mouth was dry and his head was spinning as a deep fatigue appeared on his face.
"Young Master!"
Almost at the same time, two figures ran out and shouted.
It was Nien Qi and Little Fox.
Su Zimo smiled and said softly, "I'm fine."
"Young Master, it's all my fault."
Nien Qi pursed his lips with a guilty expression. "If not for me …"
"If not for you, this battle would have been unavoidable."
Su Zimo interrupted Nien Qi.
Lin Xuanji, Little Fatty and the others crowded over as well.
"Brother Su, thank you so much this time round!"
It was rare for Lin Xuanji to retract his usual nonchalant attitude and bow deeply to Su Zimo with a solemn expression.
"There's no need for that between us,"
Su Zimo thumped Lin Xuanji's chest and chuckled.
Back in the Dragon Bone Valley, if not for Lin Xuanji, Su Zimo would have died long ago.
Su Zimo suspected that the mysterious old man who attacked in the capital of Great Zhou was related to Lin Xuanji as well – he might be an expert of Enigma Palace!
Xiaoning's eyes were red and swollen. It was obvious that she had just cried. She passed over a few elixirs and watched as Su Zimo swallowed them. Only then did her expression soften.
Little Fatty rolled his eyes and said, "Boss, I'll go collect those treasures and bring them over for you."
After this shocking battle, rivers of blood flowed in Wanxiang City and corpses were strewn all over the ground.
However, in the river of blood, under the corpses, there were countless treasures!
Among them, the most important was one of the seven great Unique Treasures, the Profound Magnet Mountain!
Right now, most of those treasures were ownerless and Little Fatty was worried that others would take advantage of them. That was the reason why he took the initiative to help Su Zimo collect them.
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "Bring me the storage bags of the Protoss and Rakshasa race and the Profound Magnet Mountain. There's no need to collect the storage bags of the other cultivators. Let the surviving cultivators of your respective sects take them back."
Su Zimo had no qualms about taking the storage bags of the Protoss and Rakshasa race.
However, Su Zimo did not want to touch the belongings of the 50,000 odd cultivators who died here.
Perfected Lord Yu Jun nodded silently when he saw that.
No matter what, his temperament alone had already surpassed many people.
Little Fatty helped to collect the bronze square tripod and other treasures and returned them to Su Zimo.
"Fufufufu."
Suddenly, a soft chuckle sounded from not far away.
A cultivator rode on wind and thunder at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, he arrived before them and stood in midair, looking down at everyone below.
"Tian Ming!"
Perfected Lord Luo Xue frowned.
The person who had arrived was Perfected Lord Tian Ming of Zephyr Thunder Palace who had returned after escaping Myriad Phenomenon City!
Surveying his surroundings, Perfected Lord Tian Ming's gaze lingered on Su Zimo for a moment before sweeping past the storage bag on the latter's waist with a look of greed in his eyes.
Su Zimo lowered his head slightly without saying anything.
The hearts of Perfected Lord Yu Jun and the other two sank when they saw Perfected Lord Tian Ming's return.
At that moment, Su Zimo was already exhausted.
Although he had just consumed the elixir, there was no way he could absorb the medicinal properties within a short period of time.
The three of them had yet to recover from their injuries and any slight movements would cause their wounds to rupture – there was no way they could fight at all.
The other cultivators were all Perfected Jin Dan and almost all of them were injured.
If Perfected Lord Tian Ming harbored ill intentions, there was no one who could stop him!
Perfected Lord Yu Jun was expressionless as he asked indifferently, "Tian Ming, since you've already escaped, why did you return?"
When the Rakshasa race attacked, the Rakshasa leader was in pursuit of Perfected Lord Tian Ming. The three of them were the ones who managed to save Perfected Lord Tian Ming's life in time.
To think that Perfected Lord Tian Ming would turn and flee after putting the three of them in danger.
The three of them were truly disgusted by this person!
If not for the fact that they were severely injured and the situation was pressing, given Perfected Lord Luo Xue's temper, she might have already attacked!
"What are you saying, Fellow Daoist Yu Jun?"
Perfected Lord Tian Ming smiled gently. "Initially, I left Myriad Phenomenon City with the intention of sacrificing myself to lure the Rakshasa leader away. Who would have thought that he did not chase after me? "
"After I realized it, I rushed back, wanting to fight to the death with the Rakshasa race. Sigh, seems like I was still a step too late. "
His words were filled with loopholes. Even a child would not believe it, let alone the three Genying Zhenjun.
Even many cultivators of Zephyr Thunder Palace felt their faces burn.
"Shameless scoundrel!"
Perfected Lord Luo Xue could not help but curse.
"Humph!"
Perfected Lord Tian Ming said coldly, "Luo Xue, you had better watch your words! Given your current state, it's extremely easy for me to kill you. It's best that you don't provoke me! "
Perfected Lord Luo Xue bolted upright, disregarding the ruptured wounds on her body. She exclaimed with a heroic aura, "Tian Ming, you're as timid as a mouse! You're like a stray dog in front of the Rakshasa race! How dare you be so arrogant in front of me!"
Perfected Lord Tian Ming's expression darkened and his gaze flickered. He paused for a long time on Perfected Lord Luo Xue before retracting his gaze slowly and suppressing the killing intent in his heart.
He had more important matters to attend to right now and should not get entangled with others!
Perfected Lord Tian Ming said indifferently, "I'll spare your life for now on account that you're a woman from Snowdrift Valley. I've returned for other matters, "
With that said, Perfected Lord Tian Ming's gaze shifted and landed on Su Zimo!
"Junior, hand me your storage bag and I'll spare your life,"
Perfected Lord Tian Ming was expressionless and his voice was cold.
Suddenly, the crowd went silent.
Many cultivators were indignant but none of them dared to make a sound.
"Tian Ming, what's the meaning of this?"
Perfected Lord Yu Jun suppressed the rage in his heart and said in a deep voice, "This calamity was resolved entirely because of Su Zimo. Yet, you're trying to kick him while he's down?"
"You're exaggerating,"
Perfected Lord Tian Ming replied, "That lad possesses the secret skill of Zephyr Thunder Palace, the Purple Thunder Manual. How am I kicking him while he's down when I'm retrieving the secret skill of our sect?"
"Since you're retrieving the Purple Thunder Manual, why do you want his storage bag?" Monk Yin Lu questioned.
Perfected Lord Tian Ming chuckled. "Who knows what's in his storage bag? Who knows, there might be other treasures of Zephyr Thunder Palace apart from the Purple Thunder Manual. I'll take the opportunity to check it out and retrieve it as well."
This was akin to daylight robbery!
"You're clearly taking advantage of the situation and yet, you're making it sound so righteous. How shameless!"
Little Fatty could not hold it in any longer and cursed out loud.
Lin Xuanji and the others were enraged as well.
