Chapter 985: Chen Yu, I'll Fight You to the End
Inside the Light Silver Crystal Space, there were seventeen tokens in total.
Among them, thirteen tokens had changed from the previous jade-like silver luster to a dull and lackluster state, resembling ordinary stones, with cracks all over them.
The silver tokens had turned into ordinary rocks!
Were it not for the fact that this space was hidden within a mysterious heart, belonging to Chen Yu's private domain, he might even suspect that the tokens had been swapped by someone.
Besides the thirteen tokens that had turned into stones.
There were another four tokens that Chen Yu had just placed inside.
On these tokens, array patterns surged, releasing spatial powers to resist this private space.
This is also why silver tokens cannot be placed into ordinary storage spaces.
Previously, when Chen Yu placed the tokens into the space within his heart, he also experienced this situation, but before long, this resistance would cease.
Before, he was preoccupied, either battling or hastily establishing Star Acupoints, without paying much attention.
"I must see how the silver tokens transform into ordinary stones."
Chen Yu attentively monitored these four tokens.
The spatial power released from the silver tokens continuously resisted the Light Silver Crystal Space.
Needless to say, the spatial array power on such small tokens could not possibly withstand the internal space of the mysterious heart.
A short while later.
The spatial power on the silver tokens was suppressed.
But immediately after.
He witnessed wisps of silver starlight emanating from the tokens, integrating into the walls of the Light Silver Crystal Space.
Subsequently, the Light Silver Crystal Space expanded slightly.
"It was absorbed!"
Chen Yu hadn't expected it to be like this.
In the next instant, he hurriedly retrieved the four tokens.
But the spatial power had already been mostly extracted, and once retrieved, they only emitted a faint silver glow.
"This..."
Chen Yu stood speechless, momentarily at a loss for words.
Do these four tokens still matter?
If not, then wouldn't he be left with no tokens at all?
"Absolutely not, I must earn a slot."
Chen Yu's face was determined.
Only two hours left!
Chen Yu wasted no time and set off immediately.
...
Elsewhere.
Yang Dingguang, Wu Yuan, and the graceful woman stopped after fleeing a distance.
The three glanced at each other, sharing a common sentiment.
How did Chen Yu become so strong?
Even Xu Liusu was helpless, defeated by Chen Yu!
Thinking about it seemed laughable; the three of them believed Xu Liusu would defeat Chen Yu with strength, or at least end in mutual destruction.
Alongside amusement, there was also some fear.
The idea of sitting idly and reaping benefits, Chen Yu surely wouldn't overlook it; if he turned on them, they could only admit defeat and endure Chen Yu's humiliation.
"Yang Dingguang, this person is from your Yang Family, do you not know anything about him?"
The graceful woman frowned, with a hint of reproach.
If Yang Dingguang hadn't been so miserable, she might have suspected he was deliberately leading them into a trap.
"He is merely an outsider in the Yang Family!"
Yang Dingguang looked innocent, sighed.
But he soon recalled a certain rumor.
It was said that the Demon Race treasure intelligence near the Four Desolate Mountain was discovered by Chen Yu.
And since then, Chen Yu had risen rapidly, now surpassing himself and the geniuses of the five great families.
"Could it be, this lad secretly reaped great rewards from the Demon Race treasure?"
Yang Dingguang's eyes flickered imperceptibly, not revealing the matter.
"There's one last two hours, and we don't have a single token."
Wu Yuan said with a slight melancholy.
"Farewell, let's rely on luck."
The three departed separately.
Only two hours remained, hope might be slim, but they had to strive to find any remaining tokens.
...
Xu Liusu fled dozens of miles away.
Boom!
He swung his sword fiercely, releasing his pent-up anger.
With a single strike, the ancient forest before him turned into wooden stakes.
"Damn it, Chen Yu, I actually lost to you!"
"Had I not underestimated you, had I been at my peak, victory would surely be mine."
Xu Liusu's face showed traces of madness, appearing somewhat deranged, nowhere near his previous carefree composure.
In the family, he possessed unparalleled talent, unmatched by anyone. Among the geniuses of the five great families, Xu was the strongest, and he was the top genius.
All this made his path smooth, seemingly nothing could trouble him.
But when faced with setbacks, the blow Xu Liusu experienced was far greater than ordinary people.
"Damn Yang Family, when I rise to become the Xu Family Patriarch, I will certainly crush the Yang Family, and won't spare the other families either."
Xu Liusu redirected his animosity toward the Yang Family.
Suddenly.
He remembered he possessed no tokens, and with only two hours left, he must find another token.
Otherwise, the imposing Xu Family would have no slots, which would disgrace him before the Xu Family members.
Swoosh!
Xu Liusu dashed forward, expanding his Spiritual Sense to search for tokens.
But Chen Yu had seventeen tokens, leaving only three remaining; they wouldn't be easy to find.
Very soon.
Xu Liusu spotted a team of three.
"Perhaps all the tokens have been acquired, but they probably won't carry them, only hide them somewhere..."
Xu Liusu's expression turned grim.
"Xu Liusu!"
The three-person team ahead, upon seeing Xu Liusu, were scared out of their wits.
"If you have no tokens and can't provide any clues about them, then perish."
His expression was icy cold, exuding great danger.
Xu Liusu had no time for interrogation, hence resorted to threats with life.
"We don't have a token, we're looking for one too."
One of them replied, their voice trembling.
Clang!
A flash of sword light, a green rainbow Sword Qi, appeared at this person's neck!
Gulp!
A head rolled to the ground.
"Ah, big brother!"
A woman screamed out.
"Seems like you don't know either."
Xu Liusu struck again, and this woman also perished in his hands.
If she knew any clues, witnessing her companion's tragic death, she would surely speak.
Swish!
The last person, face pale with fear, turned and fled.
"Seems like he doesn't know either, otherwise knowing he couldn't escape my grasp, he would certainly reveal the clue."
Xu Liusu sighed, flying elsewhere.
Encountering many more people, Xu Liusu dealt with them all in the same way; ordinary Condensed Star Realm individuals faced with his incredibly swift and unparalleled sharp sword had no way to resist, only death awaited.
Until after killing ten people.
Xu Liusu finally extracted a clue.
Whoosh!
He flew several hundred miles, finding a team of four.
This team of four was from a small family second only to the Five Great Families.
At this moment, they were chatting and laughing, just waiting for the end of the Five Mountain Martial Meeting.
Suddenly.
A loud and cold, stern voice echoed, containing boundless heavenly pressure, whipping up a stormy gale.
"Hand over the token, and I'll spare your lives!"
In the next instant, Xu Liusu descended over the four.
"Xu Liusu!"
The four turned deathly pale, staring up at the man above them, with not a trace of resistance in their hearts.
They had heard of Xu Liusu single-handedly fighting the top geniuses of the Three Great Families!
"Mr. Xu, you've already obtained so many tokens, why make things difficult for us?"
The leader said bitterly.
But upon hearing this, Xu Liusu's eyes surged with ferocity, and a fierce wind whipped around him.
He currently had no tokens!
The other party's words touched his "wound."
"Kill!"
Xu Liusu charged out, his Green Pattern Ancient Sword flashing with unparalleled sword brilliance.
After three moves, the speaking person died miserably on the spot!
"Mr. Xu, don't kill us, take the token!"
One person said, trembling with fear, immediately begging for mercy.
Under the guidance of the remaining three, Xu Liusu obtained their token.
Xu Liusu held the token, shimmering with brilliant silver light, and sighed: "Let it be."
Although unwilling, he was helpless.
At least the family could still receive a spot, otherwise, he wouldn't have the face to return.
But suddenly.
"Xu Liusu, hand over the token, or we'll fight once more!"
Upon hearing this, the three nearby Independent Practitioner Kings were shocked out of their wits.
Who dared to speak such words to Xu Liusu!
"Is this person out of their mind? Actively seeking death."
One Independent Practitioner King remarked.
But when he looked at Xu Liusu, he found the latter agitated and out of control, filled with both resentment and countless grievances.
"Chen Yu, you've already obtained so many tokens, don't bully people too much!"
Xu Liusu shouted in grief and anger.
The three Independent Practitioner Kings, seeing Xu Liusu like this, were utterly baffled.
What's going on?
Xu Liusu actually displayed such an expression, looking as if deeply wronged?
"If you won't give it, then let's fight!"
Chen Yu snorted coldly.
He had been searching for clues for a long time, and was about to give up, but at this moment encountered Xu Liusu and saw the token in his hand.
He had no alternatives, otherwise, he wouldn't feel right further humiliating Xu Liusu.
"Chen Yu, I'll fight you to the death!"
Xu Liusu roared in madness.
Chen Yu was unfair; having just taken four tokens from him, he now sought to snatch more, leaving no path for survival!
Bang! Bang!
The great battle resumed.
But due to Xu Liusu's heavy injuries, he was miserably defeated in less than twenty moves.
Chen Yu snatched the token and departed immediately.
In a massive crater, Xu Liusu lay battered in torn clothes, his eyes full of infinite grievance and anger, as if viciously ravaged.
Those unaware, seeing this scene, might think otherwise.
Not far away.
The three witnessing Independent Practitioners were immensely shocked, quickly retreating.
Gradually, news of Xu Liusu's defeat by Chen Yu spread.
But at this moment, the Five Mountain Martial Meeting was about to conclude.
"Though I only have one token, my ranking should still be high."
Chen Yu looked at the token in his hand, murmuring.
After a moment, he sighed: "Out of twenty tokens, seventeen were destroyed by me; now I only have one token left..."
This meant, in the end, there might be only three people who got tokens.
"You can't blame me for this."
After all, he didn't want this; Chen Yu originally intended to sell the tokens at the end, making a significant profit.
At some point!
Whoosh whoosh!
The gloomy fog in this area stirred up, gathering around, merging into the sixteen Array banners.
This dark region saw light once again.
The Five Mountain Martial Meeting was also over.
