Prime Originator

Chapter 155 - Dispute Over A Hill

The sudden phenomenon in the sky was alarming. The first people to sense the change were the hidden experts residing in Blackwillow Town. The stir in energy had shocked them as they were reminded of the previous phenomenon that occurred not long ago.

The previous phenomenon was caused by a person breaking through to the legendary Transcendent Realm. As such, they couldn't help but also relate tonight's phenomenon to another person's breakthrough to Transcendent Realm.

Primrose Merchant Association Branch, Blackwillow Town, 8th floor.

"Senior Apprentice Brother, another person is breaking through to the Transcendent Realm in this kingdom! Should we go take a look?" A young lady in white robe with a bluesilver butterfly image on the back, rushed into the room and suggested.

"Is that so?" The Senior Apprentice Brother Cal took a glimpse at the sky outside and saw the silent phenomenon taking place. He rubbed his chin in deep thought. "It looks a bit different to the previous phenomenon… but this tremendous power… there's no doubt about it. It's a Transcendent breakthrough."

Cal donned a similar white robe, before hopping outside from the window. "Let's go congratulate this senior on his breakthrough to Transcendent Realm. It would be beneficial to our sect if we can befriend this senior, Junior Apprentice Sister Celia. We have to be quick, before others get there first."

Even if it wasn't a senior breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, it could be the birth of some sort of treasure. In that case, they definitely couldn't let others get to it first. With that thought in mind, Cal began moving in a rhythmic step, creating fading afterimages and blinked dozens of yards ahead at a time. He was using the [Profound Butterfly Steps] of his sect.

"Huh? Wait for me for me, Senior Apprentice Brother Cal!" Celia utilized her proficiency of [Profound Butterfly Steps] to chase after her senior apprentice brother.

At the location of the hill, they were the first to arrive.

"Huh? This should be the center of the phenomenon, right? There's nothing here." Celia said doubtfully.

Cal creased his brows. Was he wrong? Or was he too late? The phenomenon ended too quickly.

Swoosh**

Several other figures began appearing on the hill not long after. An elder and two other young attendants, who seemed to be the elder's disciples. The elder was aged but possessed a certain youthful and domineering vigor to him. They had arrived from the nearby Rainwallow City. The elder scanned the hill before locking onto the two people.

"You two over there! Where is the Transcendent Master?" The Elder pointed and questioned them overbearingly.

His overbearing attitude immediately angered the two white-robes. "Hmph! The Transcendent Master is not here. Please leave! The Illusory Butterfly Sect is occupying this hill." Cal said sternly with a deep frown.

"Presumptuous! You want this elder to leave!?" The elder snarled, but then his eyes quickly lit up in the next instance. "Since there is no Transcendent Master here, there must a great treasure! You two can get lost! The Bloodfiend Sect is taking over this hill!"

"Shameless Old bastard! We were clearly here first!" Celia insulted.

The Bloodfiend sect elder's face immediately went dark. He was an expert at the five-star Awakener Realm. "Hmph! How dare a little lass like you disrespect me! Let me educate you on behalf of your elders!" The elder sneered.

He slit his wrist, allowing blood to gush out and formed a giant blood claw. It clawed at the white-robe duo with great speed, intending to viciously cripple them. However, in the face of such impending danger, the duo did not avert their gazes, facing the claw bravely without any panic with their meagre strength at the 9th step Awakener Realm.

The composed looks made the elder frowned as he thought these two brats were too pompous and ignorant. Did they think he wouldn't dare to kill them!? A trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes as he made up his mind to rip them to shreds.

However, before the blood claw reached them, some silvery-blue mist shot over at extremely high speed and plunged into the blood claw from the opposite direction. The blood claw seemed to have been inflicted with some sort of nasty poison, causing the blood claw to lose its power. Bubbly spots appeared all over the blood claw, before it finally exploded into countless fluttering butterflies briefly. It soon dissipated into nothingness shortly after.

"Who!?" The Bloodfiend Sect raged. He was filled with great fury and regrets. He did not care whether someone had blocked his attack or not. What he cared was the blood loss he had incurred as a result of that person's intervention!

"Old Claw, how I teach my disciples, it is the responsibility of I, their master. You think you are qualified to take my place to educate them?" A lazy voice drifted over, as an elder in white robes with the trademark butterfly mark on the back appeared with two other disciples.

"Master!" Cal and Celia happily shouted and walked over to the elder's side.

"You two brats are quite daring. If I had not appeared, the both of you would have been dead!" The elder grumbled.

"We knew master would come to save us." Celia hugged her master's arm with a chuckle.

"You silly lass." The elder nudged her on the head, before his expression turned serious. "Quickly fill master on what happened."

"Yes, master. We saw the phenomenon in the sky and arrived quickly, but did not see any Transcendent Master, then…" Cal recounted the situation briefly.

After listening, the elder's eyes lit up for the same reason. If it wasn't a Transcendent breakthrough, it had to be a treasure!

"Old Claw, you can get your people and piss off! My disciples arrived at this hill first, thus this hill belong to my Illusory Butterfly Sect!"

"Old Poison! So, it was you! How dare you destroy my blood vitality! Are you intending to start a war between our sect!?" Old claw said furiously. The culprit was his long-standing rival from the opposing sect!

"Hmph! So what if I am!? Do you think we aren't already at war!? Are you pretending we never had conflicts, both in the open and in the dark before!?"

"Very well! Let's old scores and new ones today!"

The two sides began to clash and erupt into a fierce battle. There were five people from Illusory Butterfly Sect, while there were only three people from Bloodfiend Sect. The weaker side was quickly determined in a short clash.

Old Claw frowned when his side was outnumbered. His blood boiled when he realized his two disciples stationed in Blackwillow Town did not arrive after such a commotion. He quickly popped a few pills in his mouth and erupted with greater strength.

The two attendants from the Bloodfiend Sect followed suit and swallowed similar pills, drew their weapons and battled!

The Bloodfiend Sect was more careful when battling with the Illusory Butterfly Sect. They avoid using blood techniques in case of being poisoned. The Illusory Butterfly Sect was renowned for their illusory techniques and poison. They were masters of assassination and should've been weak in close combat.

But after competing for many years, the Illusory Butterfly Sect had honed their techniques to avoid suffering a loss in close combat. The [Profound Butterfly Steps] allowed the Illusory Butterfly Sect members to freely evade the attacks from the other side.

After a while, the complexion of the two attendants from the Bloodfiend Sect's side began to turn purple.

"Be careful of their poison aura! These people are lunatics, who swallow poison to cultivate! Have you both forgotten!?" Old Claw bellowed, while evading from Old Poison's poison aura.

"It's too late to save them, Old Claw! They've already been poisoned! They're as good as dead!" Old Poison laughed, as he continues to press forward. If he could wipe out the Bloodfiend Sect members today, they would have no competition over the resources of the north for a while.

Poison aura had different grades of toxicity. The first level poison aura was green in color, the second level was greenish purple, the third level was blueish purple, while the fourth level was bluesilver, which Old Poison has currently achieved. Only the sect leader had achieved the fifth level poison aura, which was pure silver in color.

It was said that the sect leader's poison aura was nearing the transparency level and could poison people without them knowing they were even poisoned. Only poison experts could detect it.

After the two sides fought a deadly battle for a while, the two attendants were soon killed by the poison. However, they managed to drag one person from the other side to the netherworld with them.

"Dammit!" Old Claw roared and made a powerful slash with his sword as it rippled with a strong blood wave, forcing Old Poison back. "Remember this, Old Poison! This isn't over!"

Old Claw took the opportunity to escape. The situation was too unfavorable for him. If only his two other disciples were present, he would not have suffered such losses.

"Master, what should we do with Gahan's body?" Cal asked after the battle.

"We will take his body and bury it later. Quickly search the hill for the treasure! It could be underground." Old Poison issued.

However, they were bound to be disappointed as there was no treasure. If the two sides knew that they had been fighting over a non-existent treasure, they would have been angered to death.

As the bloody dispute over the hill transpired, the culprit, Leon had been quietly cultivating in the Worldspace this entire time.
