Chapter 76: Killing Wang Futong
Tan Yun lay hidden among the piles of stones two hundred feet away from the crowd, not making a move immediately. Instead, he contemplated the idea of waiting for the right moment, much like a mantis stalking a cicada.
After Wang Futong arrived, when the others were struggling to lift the massive stone weighing five million pounds together, he would strike!
Half an hour later.
"Hahaha, where are the three Supreme Beast Soul Springs?" Wang Futong led twelve disciples, walking into the ruins with great delight.
The eighteen disciples surrounding the ruins parted to make a path, and one of them respectfully said, "Brother Wang, the Beast Soul Springs are right below."
Wang Futong excitedly climbed through the rubble, peering through the cracks in the stones. He noticed that indeed, three Beast Soul Springs were growing on the overgrown ground beneath eight massive stones.
From within the gray Beast Soul Springs, a swimming spring soul confirmed without a doubt that they were Supreme Beast Soul Springs!
"Everyone, let's work together to move the giant stones above first. Later, we will all exert our strength to lift the largest stone at the bottom!"
Wang Futong declared loudly, "Once we collect the Soul Springs, I will not neglect anyone. If someone advances to the fetal soul realm with the beast fetal soul qualification, these three Beast Soul Springs will be sold at 20% off market price. The Spirit Stones we get shall be evenly divided among everyone!"
"Great! Thank you, Brother Wang!" The crowd cheered with joy.
Everyone knew that Supreme Soul Springs were priceless and rare; no matter how many Spirit Stones one had, they might not even be able to buy one!
The crowd shouted as they worked together, and soon they moved seven massive stones aside.
Then, under Wang Futong’s arrangement, thirty disciples gathered around the long stone weighing five million pounds, bent down, and gripped the edge of the stone with both hands, preparing to exert their strength.
Suddenly, the long stone lifted off the ground, revealing three Supreme Beast Soul Springs growing on the uneven surface beneath.
Wang Futong smiled and started walking towards the Soul Springs ten feet away, when suddenly, a gust of wind swept by him. In an instant, a figure darted across the ground, and the three Supreme Beast Soul Springs vanished!
“Damn it, you dare to steal my treasures, Wang Futong!” Wang Futong’s smile froze on his face as he shouted angrily at the brocade-robed youth who had his back turned to him.
"Bang!"
After the thirty disciples threw the giant stone down, the female disciples glared angrily at the back of the brocade-robed youth; the male disciples were furious, holding their swords, ready to explode!
They had worked hard to move the stones, only to be outpaced by someone else!
"You bastard! Hand over the Soul Springs now!"
"Give them back! You dare to act brazenly in front of us!"
"I think you have eaten the heart of a leopard..."
As the crowd cursed angrily, Tan Yun slowly turned around, his gaze sharp as he surveyed everyone, "Have you finished cursing? If you've had enough, it's time to move on!"
The thirty male and female disciples stared wide-eyed upon seeing the newcomer’s face, shouting in shock, "Tan Yun!"
"It’s Tan Yun! He has reached the great perfection of spirit embryo realm!"
The thirty disciples were terrified. Their rankings on the Hidden Dragon Rankings were all beyond the hundredth place; some were even below the two-thousandth.
They clearly understood that when Tan Yun was at the ninth level of spirit embryo realm, they were not his match, let alone now!
The thirty disciples, holding swords, timidly moved to stand behind Wang Futong, hoping for his protection!
"Do not panic, I will ensure your safety!" Wang Futong raised his right arm, and immediately, those behind him began shouting, "Brother Wang, you are a powerful figure ranked ninth on the Hidden Dragon Rankings! Even if Tan Yun has reached great perfection, he is not your match!"
