The players who chased after Blood Fiend soon noticed that the red dot that was originally moving in a straight line suddenly froze on the map. Then, he instantly retreated a small distance before he stopped. Crazed joy instantly appeared on their faces.
"He's been intercepted!"
"After him!"
The chase lasted for a period of time. The players who had not learned lightness skills or whose lightness skills had not reached a high realm were left behind. Only those who had reached a certain realm in their lightness skills were able to follow hundreds of feet behind Blood Fiend. There were not many of them. There were only around one hundred of them, and most of them were in Blessed Realm. Among them were people from Vast Ocean Sword Sect.
When they sensed that Blood Fiend might be intercepted, the group's spirits were lifted. They used all their strength to charge forward at full speed in an attempt to stand out from the crowd and snatch the brocade box.
To those who had lightness skills, hundreds of feet could be traversed in less than ten seconds.
"Roar!"
A tiger roared in the forest. The group of people were just in time to see a large tiger with yellow and white stripes on its body. It had one paw pressed against Blood Fiend's corpse while it lifted its head. The black stripes on its forehead formed the word "king", and it faced the group of unwelcome guests who stopped not too far away in an incredibly mighty manner.
However, the players' target was not the tiger. They looked around anxiously, and soon, they found their target item not too far away.
"It's over there!"
The first person to notice it was a disciple from Vast Ocean Sword Sect. He cried out in surprise and impatiently stomped against the ground. He landed near the brocade box like a phantom and extended his hand to grab it.
Before he could touch the brocade box, a hidden weapon that tore through the air came charging at him!
"Senior brother, careful!"
The people from Vast Ocean Sword Sect shouted a warning.
That person was not weak. He listened to the wind to determine the location of the hidden weapon and quickly stopped moving. He raised his sword resolutely, and with a loud clang, sparks flew everywhere. A throwing knife was sent flying into the distance.
"Who's there?!"
The Vast Ocean Sword Sect disciple's face was filled with anger. He looked in the direction where the throwing knife had come from!
There was a group of people standing proudly in that direction. They were Blessed Realm elites from more than seventy different factions. No one took the initiative to step forward, and no one turned their heads around to look. All of them stared at the brocade box by the Vast Ocean Sword Sect disciple's feet with hostile expressions.
"What? Does Vast Ocean Sword Sect want to take it for yourself? "
"There is only one brocade box, so of course it belongs to the virtuous one!" The eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Sect walked out of the crowd with a grin. "Doesn't Heaven Descendants Sect want to use these people's power to get rid of Vast Ocean Sword Sect first? Then, you'll burn the bridge after you've outlived it and take this brocade box for yourself, right? Don't think that they don't know what you're planning … "
As they spoke, twenty or so Blessed Realm players walked out from the crowd and naturally formed a stalemate with the group of people.
After being reminded by the people from the Vast Ocean Sword Faction, the unaffiliated and disadvantaged groups instantly became hesitant.
Although the other party's intention to sow discord was very obvious, he had indeed pointed out the key problem.
Without the backing of a powerful organization, even if they fought to the death, the brocade box would never fall into their hands. In the end, they might even end up working for someone else.
For a time, a dozen or so players quietly retreated dozens of meters, as if they were not involved in the matter.
When they saw this, the expressions of the people from Heaven Descendants Sect instantly turned sour.
The man in the lead was wearing a white robe and holding a green flute in his hand. He looked very elegant and at ease. However, the arrogant expression on his face and the coldness in his eyes slightly ruined the elegant demeanor of a scholar.
When he heard this, he walked out.
"Hmph!"
"Even if you don't have anyone to help you, Vast Ocean Sword Faction can forget about taking the brocade box and leaving. I've long since heard that your sect's Vast Ocean Sword Technique is outstanding, and you claim that you can stand shoulder to shoulder with top-class elites like Quicksword of the South and Soul Severing of the North. Today, I'd like to use my Thirty-six Flute Technique to test your skills."
"I see, so you're an elite from Peach Blossom Island."
When they saw that the person had actually used a long flute as a weapon, the expressions of the Vast Ocean Sword Faction disciples changed. The eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Faction, who was dressed in white, also had a solemn expression on his face. He was a little surprised and bewildered.
After all, Peach Blossom Island's fame was astonishing. It was not inferior to the four aristocratic families and seven great sects.
Besides, the person used a flute as a weapon, which meant that he might have learned it from Eastern Heretic. Compared to Vast Ocean Sword Faction, which had an average reputation, he was much stronger.
"You're indeed from Peach Blossom Island, but your abilities are only average."
Li Heng, the man with the flute, was very smug. He drew an ingenious circle with the long flute in his hand, and his gaze drifted to the eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Faction.
"Why don't we do this? We'll decide the victor through martial arts. Whoever wins will be the one to obtain the brocade box, and the loser will not continue fighting. They will immediately bring their people and leave Mount Song! "That way, we won't ruin the friendship between the two sects."
Even though he said that, Li Heng's confident expression and smile gave the disciples of Vast Ocean Sword Faction incredible pressure.
Old Heretic Huang was very famous in Peach Blossom Island!
Even though there were a few among them who practiced high-tier martial arts from Vast Ocean Sword Faction, they did not have the confidence to win against Eastern Heretic alone.
When he thought of this, the eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Faction exchanged a glance with the junior brothers beside him. Then, his expression darkened, and he said, "If I was the only one fighting for this item today, I would have let it go, but unfortunately for me, I have to be responsible for my brothers. Vast Ocean Sword Faction must obtain this brocade box!"
When he reached the end of his sentence, his tone gradually turned harsh.
"Hmph!"
When Li Heng saw that the other party did not fall for his trap, he snorted and said, "If that's the case, we can only rely on our own abilities!"
"Attack them!"
Once he gave the order, the members of Heaven Descendants Sect drew their weapons. More than thirty people pounced on the people from Vast Ocean Sword Faction with an aggressive momentum.
The eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Faction scowled. When he saw that Heaven Descendants Sect had a large number of people, and they also had Eastern Heretic's successor holding the line, he knew that it would not be easy for them to resolve this matter peacefully.
"I'll hold them back! Take the brocade box and run. "
"No! Senior brother! Take the brocade box and run! I'll stay here! "
The person answered in a very loyal manner.
The eldest senior brother grabbed the person's sleeves and said anxiously, "Idiot, that guy hasn't attacked yet.
"Idiot, that fellow hasn't made a move until now because he wants me to take the brocade box and leave. Once I leave, can any of you suppress him? At that time, I'll be the only one left. Where can I run? "
"But —"
"No buts. Your lightness skill is not inferior to mine. Go!"
He grabbed the brocade box from the ground and stuffed it into the eldest senior brother's hands. Then, he sent him more than thirty feet away with one palm strike.
"Thinking of running?"
The players who were watching the fight in the area would not let them escape so easily.
However, a few people from Vast Ocean Sword Faction quickly split up. They moved like lightning and intercepted the players who tried to chase after their companions who were protecting the brocade box. "Stay here!"
It was especially so for the eldest senior brother. Not only was his lightness skill so outstanding that it was almost at Grandmaster Realm, his high-tier Vast Ocean Sword Technique had also reached a certain level of mastery. With a few jumps, a thick sword glare spat out, and he heavily injured two people. He landed in front of the group, and with just one sword, he intimidated the people who tried to chase after him.
At that moment, a white figure jumped out from behind the crowd like a phantom and appeared in front of the eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Faction. Green light danced around him, and the sound of his flute sounded like it was weeping. It was Eastern Heretic's successor, Li Heng.
Li Heng stared at the person in front of him and gave his orders.
"Leave this person to me. Continue chasing after them."
The players' eyes sparkled for a while. Even though they did not understand why Li Heng would let nobodies like them take advantage of him so easily, the temptation of the brocade box still won over their rationality. The group circled around him and chased after the people from Vast Ocean Sword Faction.
The eldest senior brother of Vast Ocean Sword Faction's expression changed, and he jumped up!
"Your opponent is me!"
Eastern Heretic's successor, Li Heng, snorted coldly and pounced on his opponent at an even faster speed.
When the two of them attacked, they immediately started a full-scale battle between Vast Ocean Sword Faction and Heaven Descendants Sect!
From the start to the end, no one paid any attention to the tiger on Blood Fiend's corpse. The tiger seemed to know that it could not provoke this group of people. It watched quietly from the distance for a while before it swayed its huge butt and left.
