Nine people's attacks came thundering down simultaneously, causing terrible explosive sounds in the void.
"You think you can stop us nine with just that?" One person sneered.
Suddenly, the enormous sound waves from the zither exploded into pieces under the combined attacks of the nine people.
"What?!"
The expressions on the nine people's faces changed abruptly.
Right after the huge waves dispersed, an enormous fierce tiger came charging forth, roaring deafeningly with sound waves that shook everyone's eardrums.
The nine people hurriedly used star power to protect their ears.
But then they saw the giant tiger pouncing straight at them.
The nine didn't dare hesitate for a moment, immediately striking out with several martial arts techniques wildly at the tiger.
"This is just the beginning," Ye Xiu said coldly with a sneer.
His fingers continued strumming wildly.
In recent days at the Luotian Holy Palace, he had plundered quite a few zither techniques, including no small number of profound-grade ones. In addition, Ye Xiu himself had also found some zither techniques over the past few days. As a result, the zither techniques Ye Xiu had now comprehended definitely numbered no less than twenty kinds.
"Collapsing Heaven and Earth!"
"Dust Storm Dragon Twist!"
"Snowy Peak Ice Mountain!"
...
One frightening zither technique after another wildly surged toward the nine people.
Terrible explosive sounds kept bursting out in the void.
At first, the nine people could still cope, but in the end, each of them suffered internal injuries to varying degrees.
Amidst the crazy bombarding zither techniques, the nine people were utterly stifled!
They never could have imagined that the nine of them, Star Cavern Realm experts, would be truly unable to even get close!
That's right, they really couldn't get close.
Not only could they not get close, they were blasted back again and again.
It was extremely frustrating!
Who could have thought that this brat was not only a zither cultivator, but more perversely, the zither techniques he was using were simply over ten kinds, each one a mid-grade profound technique, and all cultivated to the Great Perfection!
This guy was just not human!
Forget Star Whirl Realm, even in Star Cavern Realm, being able to comprehend three or so mid-grade profound Great Perfection techniques was already very impressive.
Let alone over ten kinds!
Ye Xiu watched as the auras of the nine people also gradually became dispirited, all having suffered considerable injuries. He said coldly, "Time to end this."
"Sending you to the Western Paradise now!"
As his voice fell, Ye Xiu gathered the power of his 130 star nuclei in his ten fingers and madly plucked the zither strings.
At this moment, as the zither sounded, it was as if even heaven and earth shook violently.
After displaying the power of the star nuclei, even the zither sounds now contained terrifying stellar power.
In an instant, a huge zither sound condensed into a gigantic stomping foot appearing above the nine people.
"Giant Foot Trample!"
The giant foot descending from the sky carried terrifying stellar power and unimaginable zither intent, directly stomping down toward the nine people.
The nine people were still defending against the previous zither sound explosions and were completely unprepared. Before they could react, the giant foot heavily trampled down on their bodies!
Boom!
The giant foot stomped down.
The nine people all coughed up mouthfuls of blood as all the bones in their bodies shattered instantly.
Then they plunged down and smashed into the ground.
Ye Xiu put away his zither with absolute confidence and looked with a grin at the huge footprint crater not far away on the ground.
The nine bloodied corpses lay in the crater. Ye Xiu walked over indifferently.
In fact, these people's combat experience was not bad, but unfortunately, their talents and other aspects were just ordinary. Although they had the strength of Star Cavern Realm third or fourth layer Heaven, to be honest, compared to true geniuses, perhaps even some first or second layer Heaven Star Cavern Realm experts would be better than them.
It was just that their combat experience allowed them to hold out for so long.
However, no matter how awesome combat experience was, it still couldn't compare to the crazy bombarding of zither techniques.
Ye Xiu walked up to a corpse and searched him.
What Ye Xiu lacked most now were treasures, so naturally he wouldn't let go of anything useful.
Ye Xiu took out a black token.
On it were written the three big characters "Ghost Moon Pavilion".
"Is this the name of the assassin organization?" Ye Xiu murmured.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in Ye Xiu's eyes. "Who knows if this Ghost Moon Pavilion also has a lot of treasures."
After all, being able to send out so many Star Cavern Realm experts at once, it was obvious with just a little thought that the Ghost Moon Pavilion was clearly not a simple assassin organization.
However, for Ye Xiu, what he cared about more were naturally treasures.
Wherever there were treasures, Ye Xiu would be there. After plundering the Luotian Holy Palace last time and still not having his fill, now that Ghost Moon Pavilion had provoked him, when he got out, he could go have some fun at Ghost Moon Pavilion.
Soon, after Ye Xiu had searched the ten corpses clean, there were no particularly valuable treasures.
One word: poor!
Ye Xiu sighed, "Forget it, it's natural for some lowly grunts to not have many heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
"I still have to rely on finding them myself now."
After swallowing a thousand-year Blood Element Ginseng, Ye Xiu rested briefly before once again rushing deeper into the Ancient Desolate Danger Zone.
About half an hour after Ye Xiu left, deep in the Ancient Desolate Danger Zone, a terrible shockwave swept through.
Ye Xiu, who was rushing wildly, stopped abruptly. He also felt a shockwave. Although it was very faint, the terrifying, earth-shaking might of the source could still be sensed.
Golden light flashed in Ye Xiu's eyes. He was currently at the peak of a huge mountain, overlooking everything below. His gaze swept down and his eyes suddenly shook.
In his eyes, that cluster of golden light was as dazzling as the sun, countless times more blinding than any heavenly material or earthly treasure he had seen before!
Even he didn't dare stare at that glow, because if he looked too long, his eyes would feel a stabbing pain!
Ye Xiu's heart pounded violently.
He could almost certainly confirm.
That must be an earth-shattering treasure!
A huge opportunity!
Ye Xiu laughed wildly.
"How could such a treasure miss me!"
With that said, Ye Xiu gathered the stellar power in his whole body and immediately dived down, madly hurtling toward the location of the dazzling light cluster!
At this time, high up in the sky, when Mu Yuxue saw Ye Xiu frantically rushing forward, her beautiful eyes also faintly wrinkled.
She naturally also felt it, deep inside, an extremely strong fluctuation.
Moreover, that aura made even her heart stir!
Able to generate such terrible shockwaves and transmit so far...
This was...
An earth-shattering treasure had appeared!
Such an earth-shattering treasure could make even Star Venerables and Star Emperors covetous!
It's just that, judging from the intensity of this aura,
its location should be in the deepest parts of the Ancient Desolate Danger Zone!
That was where the truly dangerous places were!
If it was just Mu Yuxue alone, she would have certainly charged in wildly now.
But with Ye Xiu still around, she could only follow closely on his heels.
Mu Yuxue's beautiful eyes quivered slightly, her delicate red lips parted lightly, and a shocking voice softly sounded.
"Just what kind of earth-shattering treasure is this?"
