Spirit Vessel

The place was filled with fish demons who were naturally powerful, hence their spots near Prince Moonbreak. The weakest was still a first-level paragon.

Among the hundred or so cultivators were ten old men who were particularly mighty. They surrounded the four priestesses while having a nefarious grin.

“Zhong Shenxiu was right, you are worthless, a stain of a human.” Shangguan Mingqian gritted her teeth.

She wanted to become the saintess of Aquamoon, believing that she was qualified in all aspects and equal to Xuanyuan Yiyi.

After all, she was a mythical genius capable of fighting a demon monarch. Moreover, she had access to the deity’s power as well but alas, Zhang Guyue attacked her from behind.

Zhang Guyue stared at her gorgeous body and turned back toward Prince Moonbreak. He bowed his head and said: “Your Highness, I am now your servant. Will you bestow her to me?”

He had coveted her for a long time but since she was stronger and had high status, there was nothing he could do.

This was his opportunity. n.-01n

“You are nothing but a dog, scram.” Prince Moonbreak smirked, causing Guyue to freeze awkwardly.

“A beauty like her can’t be given to a dog, she’s mine!” Prince Moonbreak raised his voice.

Zhang Guyue was livid, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth. Alas, he still stood aside, afraid of the prince’s glare.

Prince Moonbreak tidied his robe and came closer to Shangguan Mingqian. He stared straight at her eyes and smirked again: “I hate cowards. Men should spill blood before bowing, right? Honor over death.”

“Do you actually think you can do anything to us? The deity had marked our body with her dao rune.”

“Your deity is busy with her tribulation up there, no one will save you. Hell, she might not be able to save herself this time.” Prince Moonbreak laughed.

“What are you saying?” Mingqian’s expression changed.

“I’m telling you that Aquamoon will be no more starting tomorrow, that’s why you need to have a backup plan. Being my servant isn’t too bad, I won’t mistreat you.” Prince Moonbreak sneered and reached for her chin.

However, he suddenly realized something and raised his fingers to attack behind him with a sword slash.

“Whoosh!” It turned out that Feiyun was distracted after hearing the prince, leaking some aura as a result.

Feiyun was still invisible and decided to create a Buddhist maelstrom to nullify the attack.

“Who is it?!”

“Invisibility!”

The demons immediately surrounded his position.

Prince Moonbreak stared at Feiyun’s location and smiled: “Not bad at all, got so close to me undetected.”

He could tell that this was someone powerful after sensing the leaked aura.

Two crimson-haired old men stood behind him while holding a crystal staff engraved with their emblem. Their eyes were closed, looking like two statues always following the prince.

Energy gathered around the one to the left. He opened his eyes and woke up from decades of meditation to speak: “A practitioner of Buddhism with an invisible cloak. Incredible cultivation and less than a hundred years old. Be careful, Your Highness.”

Having said that, he closed his eyes again and all of his aura disappeared as he returned to meditation.

Feiyun was impressed by the old man’s insightful gaze. No wonder he was serving as the prince’s protector. The two always cultivated and automatically followed the prince. They would only wake up if he were in real danger.

They haven’t woken up for decades but Feiyun’s aura seemed dangerous enough for one of them to warn the prince.

“A Buddhist less than a century old? Must be a rising star of the humans.” Prince Moonbreak wasn’t afraid at all. His battle intent surged and woke up the three white-robed priestesses.

The other demons became alarmed as well for they were facing a new genius of the human race.

“Obey me and I shall grant any of your request.” Prince Moonbreak said.

“I do not wish to become a dog for demons.” Feiyun smiled.

“I treat people as people and dogs as dogs. You are no dog, my first gifts to you shall be these priestesses from Aquamoon.” Prince Moonbreak glanced at Zhang Guyue and sneered.

As for Shangguan Mingqian, she was thinking about the rising geniuses of the human race. Who was this guy? A monk from an immemorial Buddhist temple?

“No need for that, they’ll be mine after I kill everyone here.” Feiyun unleashed a golden radiance accompanied by Buddhist hymns, instantly destroying demonic energies in the room.

“So you prefer the hard way, let’s see who you are!” A demon monarch from the last generation summoned a sword crafted from a pseudo-saint’s eighteen fish scales. It was immensely sharp due to having the pseudo-saint’s dao laws embedded on the blade.

The cut sliced through the radiance and made its way to Feiyun.

“Boom!” A Buddhist palm suddenly manifested into reality and crushed the demon monarch, first reverting him back to his true form and then reducing him to a meat paste.

“Kill him!” The other demons immediately attacked, among them were six demon monarchs.

The bones around them crumbled. Other creatures within a thousand-mile radius were obliterated by their auras.

“Prince Moonbreak is so lucky, why didn’t I meet a capable foe?” Firebird Saintess noticed the energy eruption and smiled. She grew a pair of fiery wings and immediately flew in that direction.

“Haha, is it Aquamoon Saintess? Let’s go take a look.” A hairy demon walking barefoot leaped into the air, shooting forward like a cannon and leaving a crater behind.

Other human cultivators headed for the same place.

Fish demons were obliterated by the golden radiance, the monarchs included. Prince Moonbreak didn’t seem to mind as he stood proudly, posing both hands behind his back.

He focused on gazing at the golden radiance and the variations in techniques.

“Whoosh!” He suddenly teleported into the radiance, holding a seventeenth-ranked trident to pierce through it.
