1380 Chapter 1374: CKC, Container (3)

"Bei Yinyin's big, bright, and innocently gleaming eyes reflected the image of the golden-robed, crown-wearing 76th n.o.ble Prince with the light of curiosity. She innocently tilted her head. The man wasn't handsome, wasn't tall, nor was he imposing to an extreme, yet he felt oddly familiar to her.

"Royal Big Sis?" She whispered inquisitively. Bei Yinyin's senses were always preternaturally acute for a child, so her making this connection based on her first impression wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

"I'm a man," the 76th n.o.ble Prince smiled as if he wasn't seething angrily inside at being misgendered, patiently speaking to the little girl, "You can call me Royal Big Bro."

Bei Yinyin's eyes flashed with a brief stint of confusion. She honestly said from the bottom of her heart, "I don't wanna." As if that wasn't enough of an explanation, she added: "Royal Big Bro is far better looking than you, and he'll be mad."

"..." The trio of women and the 76th Prince were stunned and speechless. However, Da Shan's lips cracked into a slight grinning smile. Bei Yinyin was using Wei Wuyin or Wu Yu as 'Royal Big Bro' but even she wasn't certain which. Regardless of which, she had to wholeheartedly agree that they were both far better looking.

Then, her expression slowly s.h.i.+fted into a state of neutrality, her golden eyes flat, and her lips smileless. "Move." Her tone was as flat as her placid facial expression. It wasn't a request.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince's mental disposition wasn't ordinary, so he swiftly regained himself, not growing angry at the mutterings of a child, and he simply revealed a smile toward Da Shan. He also wasn't ordinary in mind, realizing that the situation was deeply abnormal with a demonic sp.a.w.n of t.i.tan origin and a little girl stuck in one of the translucent containers here. They seemingly knew each other, yet one was a human and the other was a demonic sp.a.w.n intermixed with a t.i.tan, their lineages were as far as heaven and earth were apart.

Additionally, this little girl likely took the incredible path of an Alchemical Sage. She was only a few years old, barely out of the womb, yet she was traversing such a profoundly rare and difficult path of cultivation. Moreover, the demonic sp.a.w.n had opened the container somehow. There were far too many abnormalities surrounding all this, so he decided to act prudently despite his status.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince took Da Shan's words with a dismissive, forgiving att.i.tude. He began questioning patiently, "Where-"

"-Move." Da Shan directly interrupted. Her words dripped with a frosty tone, chilly and forceful. She had already told him twice. She wasn't someone who gave three warnings.

"Great Big Sis, is he hard of hearing? Big Sis said some can't listen properly, so they need to be given instruction in other ways." Bei Yinyin's eyes lit as she looked at the 76th n.o.ble Prince interestingly. Before anyone could say anything, her energy levels grew as she grasped Da Shan's hand tighter, her small hand wrapping barely around two fingers. "Big Sis says using her sword was enough to make others listen, but she told me I can't watch her do so, that I'm too young. But Great Big Sis will show me, right? You're the bestest!"

While her words were spoken innocently, her tone seemingly oozing with interest, pure and untainted, there was a hint of bloodl.u.s.t that formed into the air around her as if the world was responding slightly.

"..."

"This little girl..." the dark yellow-eyed triplet couldn't help but mutter softly. The girl was cute, undeniably so, but her words were a little... manipulative? It was hard to get a feel for it, but she definitely wasn't as innocent as she looked. That was what she felt. That's what they all felt.

Da Shan could feel the bubbling excitement through Bei Yinyin's small hand.

The beautiful giantess looked at the surroundings, trying to spot any incongruent areas within the world's light, but her golden eyes couldn't catch a glimpse of any inconsistencies or signs. Eventually, she unleashed a sigh in her heart, looking at the 76th n.o.ble Prince with an increasingly glacial pair of eyes.

"Activate your hairpin," Da Shan instructed Bei Yinyin, whose eyes brightened like never before. Her small frame and fragile physique seemed to become energetic as she scrambled to touch her head in a hurry. Her bright eyes overflowed with expectation.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince looked at the little girl's head, finding a hairpin, a snap clip to be exact, with a silvery surface placed beautifully in her short hair. His eyes instantly revealed visible shock as she touched it, causing faint esoteric runes to manifest on its surface that he couldn't fully understand but recognized as the aura began pulsating into the air.

The trio of women were instantly rendered breathless, their hearts pumping thunderously as the aura swept across their restrained yet sensual bodies. There was no incredible phenomenon occurring in the sky or earth, but the little girl's figure became slightly less tangible. It was brief. It was minor. The changes to their expressions were anything but.

"Void Treasure!" The 76th n.o.ble Prince identified the hairpin's origin, his heart roared as Void Energy fluctuations alongside Spatial Law and Time Law Auras permeated the immediate world. Despite visibly seeing her, he instantly lost track of her aura and lost the ability to spiritually sense her entire existence. It was as if she moved her entire being into a different layer of the world that he had been to before.

Da Shan nodded in her heart after witnessing Bei Yinyin activate Wei Wuyin's gifted treasure. Bei Yinyin had once paraded to the world this 'gift' from the Ascendant Emperor of Neo-Dawn that she had spoken nonstop for three days and two nights straight without sleep, bragging to the sky, the earth, the plants, and the birds leaving smiles and laughter in countless hearts.

Envy, greed, and rampant desire swirled within the eyes of those from the World Beyond almost simultaneously. The worth of a Void Treasure was invaluable, but when infused with runes of s.p.a.ce and time laws, the value was enough to rattle a nation!

This girl! Who was she?!

The 76th n.o.ble Prince and the triplets weren't the only ones who were observing the situation. The unbearably loud thrumming had alerted numerous existences, causing quite a few to fly over, hurriedly concealing themselves when they noticed the 76th n.o.ble Prince in a panic. There were dozens of others in the surroundings, all hidden and observing from a great distance.

The appearance of the 76th n.o.ble Prince had instigated a wild exchange of spiritual transmissions among partic.i.p.ants nearby. How was he, who should've aged out of the compet.i.tion, even here?! No one had an answer! Within milliseconds of this question circulating, spiritual transmissions flew out wildly as many used various spells and tools to send out messages to others.

Unfortunately, none of them realized that the area they had entered that could visibly 'notice' the 76th n.o.ble Prince had long since been sealed off and none of their messages were being sent through. Moreover, the current developments unfolding before them were growing in a particularly shocking way, drawing away their focus further. No one thought of running away, especially since the Celestial Race's Highwoven Manor's Concubines were here, captured and restrained.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince calmed his roaring heart, settling his greed with a single breath, and he smiled n.o.bly: "What a fascinating hairpin you have there. What's your name, little one?" If she carelessly identified herself, with his vast experience, he would be able to grasp some clue into her origins, allowing him to properly weigh his next move before making it.

Bei Yinyin tilted her head to the left. "Just like Big Sis said," she mouthed with a tinge of pity intermixed with expectation in her eyes.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince's eyes constricted instantly. He couldn't hear her at all!

WHOOs.h.!.+ Da Shan was not in the habit of speaking thrice, so she took action! Her hand balled into a tight fist as she launched it toward the 76th n.o.ble Prince's chest! Her fist contained no starforce, simply pure physical strength. The air rumbled as a gust of air rustled the 76th n.o.ble Prince's attire.

The eyes of those watching instantly widened. Da Shan was a mere mortal in their eyes, so they had mostly dismissed her, but her fist attack was earthshaking and disgustingly fast. The air directly exploded from sheer momentum!

BOOM! A thunderous, heaven-rumbling sound erupted as the sand of the area instantly vacated the immediate area, leaving a large dent within the desert for ten miles.

"Oh?" The 76th n.o.ble Prince held out his left hand. His posture was casual, one hand at his side, the other held out, and his eyes eyebrows lifted curiously as his gaze never left the little girl. Within his palm was a large, violet fist clenched tightly. Aside from a flutter of his robes, his body now levitating above the desert, he hadn't taken a single step back.

"That's quite a punch," he casually commented.

Da Shan's eyes widened ever-so-slightly after her attack was blocked. She stared at the 76th n.o.ble Prince. Those observing expected her gaze to be slowly filling with fear and horror at the realization, but only a burning fighting spirit blazed in her golden eyes.

She pulled back her fist and the 76th n.o.ble Prince didn't stop her, merely placing both hands behind his back as he faintly smiled, his eyes never leaving Bei Yinyin. "Did you use a treasure to elevate your Spiritual Aura to a sufficient level or was it a tricky spell that falsely elevates one's aura to scare off others?" While he didn't look her way, as if doing so would taint his eyes and status, he still directed a question to Da Shan.

The latter method wasn't abnormal for those of a tricky, scheming heart while the former wasn't uncommon in the world of cultivation.

"How confident!" Da Shan couldn't help but chuckle. Did this so-called prince think that her attack contained her full strength? Or even a tenth of it? Or a single percentage?

WHOOs.h.!.+ She launched a second fist!

This time, her fist generated its own gravitational force that distorted the sand, air, mana, s.p.a.ce, and time! There was no starforce within, simply raw power backed by her fleshy body, yet it was as if she had formed a planet-rivaling mountain and hurtled it toward the prince!

The 76th n.o.ble Prince's eyes flashed briefly as he once again moved his palm to block its path, the air around him utterly casual, as if he wasn't being attacked by a beautiful giantess of a woman but a buzzing fly.

BOOM!! The desert instantly formed a large depression as sand flew away in storms in every direction. Those observing formed wards to defend against the sandstorm coming their way, but their hearts all shook at the power contained within that punch! Some questioned if they could take that attack!

"Oh?" As the shaking s.p.a.ce, time, and mana began to calm down, the sight of the 76th n.o.ble Prince in the exact location as before, same posture as before, only with a slightly changed facial expression could be noticed. He remained unmoved. "You can exert strength considerably beyond Mortal Limits. What are you?"

"..." Da Shan was taken aback. She had attacked with her current form's complete strength, investing all her physical power into that strike, yet...

But just as the prince's invincible image was searing into everyone's heads, his left sleeve exploded! The cloth turned to ash, crushed out of existence! What was revealed was a slender, masculine arm with bulging veins across its length. Those veins throbbed intensely as if on the verge of bursting.

"..." The observers couldn't help but be stunned. The 76th n.o.ble Prince was actually showing signs of being hurt! While his expression was unchanged, stately, and calm, containing a wisp of disregard still, the truth was revealed! That attack wasn't easily blocked!

Da Shan pulled away again. Her eyes inspected this golden-robed, crown-wearing young man curiously. Was this guy a poser? Since his body hadn't shattered then and there, he was at least somewhat capable.

"I see," the 76th n.o.ble Prince seemed to be making a decision as he pulled back his open palm, his sleeve instantly repairing as if time itself was reversed. It was extremely seamless, absolutely miraculous! When this occurred, the expressions of everyone watching were instantly changed.

"No..." the red-eyed triplet of the Highwoven Manor released a solemn and unwilling voice out into the world.

Da Shan's golden eyes widened slightly.

"I didn't think you'd be able to harm my Exalted Goldking Physique," as he spoke out, the air tensed everywhere, the sand shook in every ounce of the desert region, and the mana of the entire world twisted unnaturally.

BOOs.h.!.+ A heart-palpitating aura erupted, unfurling throughout the world, changing the hue of the sky, the color of the bright rays of light cascading downwards, and the very taste of the air with the qualities of gold. The 76th n.o.ble Prince unleashed his Mystic Aura!

Fear nestled itself into the minds and hearts of almost everyone present!

"Ea-ear-EARTHLY!! SAINT!!!" Instantly, the observers went into a frenzy. Those not of the human race...they fled! IN ANY DIRECTION!

However, Da Shan's eyes brightened up to a nearly indescribable degree, rivaling the blazing stars in the night sky, brilliant and blinding, and her fighting will erupted as the ferocity entrenched into her demonic bones roared to life.

"YES!" She roared excitedly as her bronze bracers and greaves exuded an earthly bronze light.

While the Chosen of the World Beyond ran at the first chance, the beautiful violet-skinned, golden-eyed Violet Mountain t.i.tan Demon clenched her fist so tightly that the distorted mana within the world drew into it within a single breath. For tens of thousands of miles, the world became bereft of mana!

Her fist was enveloped in a glow of violet, earthy light as she launched it! A third fist!

When she did, the faint manifestation of a gargantuan violet-colored mountain flashed behind her, inducing a gravitational might and emitting a violet radiance that caused those fleeing to collapse on the sandy surface, slowly being dragged back. Only a select few withstood the sheer World Pressure exerted! The others spat out blood, bones broke, and their consciousnesses grew fuzzy as they began floating upwards.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince's Mystic Aura flared imposingly, its golden glow tainted the surroundings allowing him to resemble a king of the ages. He disdained to act differently before a mortal, simply holding out his left palm once again with his Mystic Aura circulating. While it seemed as if he was underestimating Da Shan, his Mystic Aura flowed with nine incomparably clear types of Mystic Runes by the tens of thousands!

9th Runic Ascendant!

BOOM!!!

Da Shan's fist landed squarely in his palm, firmly meeting the center, and a h.e.l.l-raising explosive boom erupted that could shatter the eardrums of G.o.ds and ghosts alike. The desert immediately scattered in every direction, revealing an earthen bedrock beneath!

Storms of wind and mana swept the Evercrown Ceremony's stage! Countless unsuspecting individuals were caught unawares, and sent flying to G.o.d knows where! For over a hundred thousand miles, across multiple regions, everything was thrown into spontaneous chaos.

"Oh? It seems you can look at me," Da Shan's mocking voice resounded throughout the world.

The 76th n.o.ble Prince's eyes were no longer focused on Bei Yinyin, his hazy golden gaze fully placed on Da Shan's figure. His left arm, however, was bent unnaturally as his bone jotted out of his skin, splintered and sharp. Golden blood spurted out profusely.

"Perfect," Da Shan suddenly waved her hand as a gigantic bronze warhammer appeared, standing at roughly ten feet in length with two flatheads. She brandished it around with a beautiful set of spins, clasping its shaft with one hand as she gestured toward the 76th n.o.ble Prince with the other. "You'll do well with that durability."
