God-Like Extraction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

To the place they were sealed?

Xiong Qifan was briefly stunned at first, but quickly nodded.

“No problem. This way, Senior!”

With that, he secretly exhaled.

Good that he has a request.

Tm just afraid of infuriating him.

As for where the Flying Lion army was sealed, many people knew about it.

There was no loss in bringing Su Jingxing to have a look.

At this thought, Xiong Qjfan surreptitiously motioned at Du Kexin, Lu Hao, and

the others to keep quiet and not say anything rash to provoke Su Jingxing

Third-grade big shots were known for their capricious moods. Who knew if

any comment they made would violate his opponent’s taboos?

To be safe, it was best to keep quiet.

At that moment.

Xiong Qifan and Yu Qi led the way in front.

Lu Hao, Du Kexin, and the others followed behind.

Su Jingxing was right at the back as they made for the depths of Green Cloud

Mountain.

In fact, the cliff where the silver sunflower was located was already close to the

depths of the Green Cloud Mountain.

Every one of them was a martial artist, so they were sprinting at top speed.

They traversed through the rugged mountain paths and dense forests without

encountering many obstacles.

In less than 20 minutes, they arrived at their destination.

At the entrance of a valley shrouded in mist.

“Senior, this miasma is poisonous,”

Xiong Qifan stopped in his tracks and pointed at the large expanse of light red

mist that pervaded the entrance of the valley. “The miasma here is very potent

and highly corrosive. It can even corrode and penetrate ordinary steel plates.

Most of the protective suits are just there for show. If you want to enter, you

have to use your protective true energy and hold your breath while walking.”

“Huh? Wouldn’t that make it impossible for me and the rest to enter?” asked Lu

Hao glumly.

“Heh. It’s your fault for not cultivating hard and reaching the sixth-grade,” said

Du Kexin, raising his chin smugly.

“”

“Cough cough.”

Yu Qi cleared his throat, cutting them off. “You guys stay outside, Little Lu. Cut

the crap.”

“That’s right, you guys can keep guard outside.” Xiong Qifan agreed. Then he

gestured respectfully, “Senior, this way”

A layer of fluorescence suffused his body as he raised his protective true energy

and led the way into the miasma.

Without batting an eyelid, Su Jingxing followed behind.

Enveloped by protective true energy, he stepped into the miasma zone, which

was more than 30 meters tall

Yu Qi and Du Kexin were last.

Soon, the four of them disappeared into the faint red mist.

Upon entering the valley, he realized that the walls on both sides of the valley

were bare, without a single blade of grass or other vegetation.

There were only bits of stone on the ground. Occasionally, there were remains

of decomposed animals scattered all over the ground.

Strange creaks sounded as they stepped on them.

There was no other life in the miasma zone, which was over 200 meters long.

When they left the mist, they then saw a few trees scattered around the valley.

As the group of four advanced deeper into the valley, the number of plants

gradually increased.

The seal location lies beyond the woods ahead,” said Xiong Qifan as he walked.

“Mm.”

Su Jingxing responded coolly. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and said dully,

“There are people in front.”

What? Xiong Qifan was taken aback. “Not many people here know about this

place, unless it’s Elder Li and the rest.”

“That’s them,” said Yu Qi. “I didn’t expect Old Li to show up today as well. And

they are still here, bumping right into us.”

“Well, Elder Li isn’t bringing someone here to break the seal, is he?” asked Du

Kexin doubtfully.

“How is that possible? Has Elder Li hired a third-grade big shot as well?

Xiong Qifan blurted out. Then his expression changed. “Hurry, let’s move

quickly! Elder Li and the others might really be breaking the seal!”

With that, he burst forward.

Yu Qi followed closely behind.

Su Jingxing easily kept up.

“Wait for me,” said Du Kexin, who was last.

The four of them flew through the woods and saw a group of people standing8

on a small dirt slope

“It really is Elder Li!”

Xiong Qjfan rushed over with a solemn expression.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

“Who is it!

On the slope, a group of people noticed Su Jingxing and company.

They all turned around to look at them.

“Hey, isn’t that Old Yu?

An old man with graying hair and who was meticulously groomed stood with

his back straight. He grinned when he saw Yu Qi. “Good timing, Old Yu. We

were just about to break the seal.”

“No!

Xiong Qifan charged up the small hill and said solemnly, “Elder Li, the seal

cannot be broken. The Flying Lion army chose to seal themselves. No one

forced them to do so, they did so willingly.”

“If we break the seal and the array formation, instead of being grateful to us,

they might even hate us!

“This.

Li Chunzhen was stunned.

The people standing around him were equally shocked.

They had never considered this possibility before.

Even though they both belonged to the Green Cloud Court, they were divided

into two factions. Other than some general orientations, they worked on their

own most of the time.

Previously, Xiong Qifan’s reminder had never crossed everyone’s mind. All they

thought about was currying favor with others, building up ties and hanging on

others’ coattails.

In their opinion, anyone who had been sealed away for hundreds of years

would want to wake up and enjoy the convenient life in the new era,

dominating a region.

Even if they were to assume the worst-case scenario-the Flying Lion army

despising them and they fail to cozy up to them, there wouldn’t be any danger.

After all, they were the ones who had awakened the Flying Lion army.

Given the loyalty of the Flying Lion army, they would never harm the people

who saved their lives.

The only thing they had not considered was that the Flying Lion army might

hate them because of this!

“Haha!

Amidst the silence, a laugh broke out.

It was a burly man who was nearly two meters tall and dressed in martial arts

attire. He burst out laughing.

This young man’s concern makes sense. Indeed, the members of the Flying

Lion army might not want to wake up. If you awaken them by force, not only

will you not reap any benefits, you will even incur their hatred.”

“But!

The burly man raised his voice and exuded his aura. “However, that’s you and

not us! If we are the ones who awakened the Flying Lion army, they wouldn’t

feel resentful or angry, because we are related!”

Hmm???

Xiong Qifan paused.

Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows as well. He looked at the burly man and the

others with flickering eyes, deep in thought.

“May I ask who you are?

A gleam flashed across Yu Qj’s eyes as he bowed to the burly man.

“oh, I forgot to introduce. This is the Commander of the Changyang Prefecture

Army, the Gray Leopard King, Gu Zhanlin!”

Li Chunzhen came back to his senses and introduced the burly man.

“Commander Gu, this is Yu Qi, one of the the elders of Green Cloud Court. This

is Xiong Qifan, this is Du Kexin, and this is.

“Hmm? old Yu, who’s this?” asked Li Chunzhen, looking at Su jingxing

quizzically.

“This is the senior we originally hired to break the seal,” explained Xiong Qifan.

“His name is.

Here, Xiong Qifan paused awkwardly.

He still didn’t know Su Jingxing’s name.

“I’m Jiang Ziya,” said Su Jingxing gloomily.

“That’s right, this is Senior Jiang,” Xiong Qifan quickly continued. “We were

planning to invite Senior Jiang over to break the seal, but chose to give up after

listening to his reminder.”

“Senior Jiang?

Li Chunzhen’s eyes twinkled. “Senior Jiang is also a third-grade martial artist?”

“Of course!” Xiong Qifan puffled up his chest.

“Hehe, we met Senior Jiang by chance,” chuckled Yu Qi.

Li Chunzhen had invited the Commander of the Prefecture Army, Gu Zhanlin.

This Gray Leopard King had just advanced to the third-grade last year. At that

time, he had hosted a big feast, and the commotion was huge.

Even though Yu Qi knew about this, he had no way of establishing ties with this

person.

To think, Li Chunzhen had invited him this time to help break the seal.

Gu Zhanlin and Su Jingxing were both third-grade martial artists, but it was

unclear who was stronger.

However, if Gu Zhanlin was the one who broke the seal and the array

formation, the Flying Lion army really would resent them.

The Flying Lions and Gu Zhanlin were indeed family since they were both

military personnel.

They might get angry, but never resentful.

The Flying Lions might even end up joining the Changyang Prefecture Army,

making it the best army in Yu Nation.

If that was the case, Gu Zhanlin would have great credit!

They would have gained a hundred members in the fourth-grade, five in the

third-grade, and three in the second-grade.

One could easily imagine how much stronger the Changyang Prefecture Army

would become in a short period of time.

As a key person involved in awakening the Flying Lion army, how big of a

reward would Gu Zhanlin receive?

Yu Qi fell silent at the thought.

Xiong Qifan and Du Kexin also kept quiet.

Li Chunzhen was pleasantly surprised.

That’s right, if Gu Zhanlin was the one taking action, there wouldn’t be any

adverse effects.

Even if it the Flying Lion army had nothing to do with them after being

awakened,

establishing ties with Gu Zhanlin through this cooperation was also a windfall!

Without Li Chunzhen providing clues and information, how could Gu Zhanlin

have known about the location where the Flying Lion army was sealed?

With a third-grade martial artist who was also the commander of the

Prefecture Army as his backing, Li Chunzhen would immediately become the

one of the leaders in Green Cloud Court. From then on, there was also no doubt

that Green Cloud Court would rule Qinghe City and become famous throughout

Changyang Prefecture.

Therefore, the seal could be broken!

“Commander Gu is right. We might not be able to do it, but it is no problem for

Commander Gu.”

Li Chunzhen ignored Su Jingxing and sucked up to Gu Zhanlin. “I didn’t think

of this before. With Commander Gu’s reminder, awakening the Flying Lion

army won’t be a problem at all!”

“Haha, it’s also thanks to you for providing the information and finding this

place.”

Gu Zhanlin waved his hand and smiled. “In terms of credit, you should have a

share.”

“Lucky, we were just Iucky,” said Li Chunzhen, smiling ingratiatingly. “Look,

the recent incident in Qinghe City with the Mausoleum of Prince Qin has

caused quite a stir. Out of curiosity, we did some research on the life of the

Rising Dragon Saber King. To our surprise, we found out that the Flying Lion

army had sealed itself in the Green Cloud Mountain Range!”

“I see.”

Gu Zhanlin nodded, feigning an enlightened expression.

The next second, he lifted his head to look at Su Jingxing and raised his

eyebrows. “May I ask where you are from, Elder Jiang? I might not know all the

martial artists in the top ranks in the Yu Nation, but I have never heard of

someone named “Jiang Ziya”!”

“Im a wanderer in the mountains and the wild. It’s normal for you not to have

heard of me, Commander,” replied Su Jingxing indifferently.

Deep down, he was on high alert.

Has this fellow seen through my disguise?

After all, he wasn’t a true third-grade martial artist; neither was he capable of

condensing Martial Art ‘True Intent or liquefying true energy.

His understanding of the third-grade was limited to what the Ethereal Sword

Immortal had shared with him.

It wasn’t impossible for Gu Zhanlin to see through him.

Su Jingxing was ready to be exposed.

What he was wary of was whether Gu Zhanlin would make a move on himn.

This was a big problem.

Of course, after cultivating the Divine Spirit Control Technique to the Advanced

level and controlling the spirit weapon, Thunderbolt, like his own am, Su

Jingxing now had a strategy to deal with the terrifying pressure of third-grade

experts.

Unleash Thunderbolt!

With the power of a spirit weapon, he should be able to repel a third-grade

martial artist and escape, if not kill him.

Especially with the speed of Thunderbolt, Su Jingxing did not believe that Gu

Zhanlin could catch up to him if he moved using Thunderbolt’s full speed.

Therefore, even though Su Jingxing was fearful, he didn’t show it.

In comparison, Yu Qi, Xiong Qifan, and Du Kexin were feeling extremely tense.

If Gu Zhanlin made a move against Su Jingxing, no matter who won or lost,

they would not have a good ending.

The same went for Li Chunzhen.

In a clash between third-grade martial artists, fourth-grade martial artists

would be nothing but cannon fodder.

Li Chunzhen cleared his throat and changed the topic. “Commander Gu, it’s

getting dark. Why don’t we come back tomorrow? The place where the Flying

Lions are sealed is right in front of us. Itll always be here.”

“No need for that.”

Retracting his gaze from Su Jingxing, Gu Zhanlin said in a low voice, “It’s just

breaking the seal. I can take care of it in five minutes!”

With that, he leaped into the air and landed on the spacious ground in fro

the small slope.

The flat land was overgrown with flowers and grass, and was about half the

size of a football field.

No matter how one looked at it, it was just an ordinary piece of land.

However, after repeated investigations by Green Cloud Court, it was confirmed

to be the place where the Flying Lion army’s 108 members were sealed.

At this moment.

Gu Zhanlin stood in the air, a hundred meters above the ground. His aura was

fully released, stirring up the air around him. It was extremely chaotic.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Great amounts of worldly energy converged around him.

The formless power was like a falling mountain floating in the air, majestic

and terrifying.

Roar!

A huge gray leopard emerged from the back of Gu Zhanlin’s head witha

deafening roar. It snarled at the sky.

The beast roar seemed to have materialized as ripples formed in the air,

forming a passageway.

Gu Zhanlin’s clothes fluttered despite the absence of wind, and his hair was

lifted.

Hum

A trembling cry traveled through the air and the ground.

Gu Zhanlin circulated his true essence and wrapped it around his hands. Then,

with a roar from the gray leopard, he suddenly thrust his palm downwards.

Roar!

Boom!

The air exploded.

Following the leopard’s roar, a graayish-black palm imprint formed from true

energy swiftly descended, tearing through the air with a loud crack. Under the

watchful eyes of Li Chunzhen, Xiong Qifan, and the others, the palm imprint

struck the ground covered in flowers and grass.

Hum-

A buzz reverberated through the air.

An invisible force blocked the grayish-black palm imprint the moment it came

into contact with the ground.

This invisible force was like an oval-shaped barrier that enveloped the entire

piece of flat ground. On its surface, clear patterns appeared in the air, exposing

themselves to everyone.

There were a total of twelve of them!

The twelve patterns formed an oval-shaped barrier that blocked all external

ttacks and also sealed off the entire plot of land.

|As it shook, Gu Zhanlin’s palm imprint only lasted for less than five seconds

before slowly dissipating into nothingness!
