Chapter 579 Six Color Lake (1/2)

Swish! Swish!

Several hundred figures charged into the misty mountain forest.

Although the members from the three sects were currently gathered in one big group, they still maintained a certain distance between them, evidently still unable to fully trust each other.

“Go!”

With a low shout, the several hundred member strong group increased their speed, swiftly flying towards the depths of the forest on their Genesis Qi.

When they entered, the faint mist around them still somewhat obstructed their vision. However, their Spirit senses were able to scout a certain distance ahead.

Zhou Yuan was positioned at the very front of the group, the Spirit between his brows vibrating as invisible Spirit power spread to scan the surroundings.

“I sense some disturbances in the surrounding Genesis Qi. The Genesis Beast hidden inside the forest have likely been alerted to our presences. Be careful everyone.” Zhou Yuan’s voice was transmitted into the ears of every Cangxuan Sect disciple with the help of Genesis Qi.

The disciples' expressions shivered when they heard this as Genesis Qi began rising around their bodies. All sorts of Genesis weapons also appeared in their hands, as they vigilantly advanced.

Rumble!

Zhou Yuan’s words were soon verified. The land began to tremble faintly as countless hisses and howls echoed from the depths of the forest.

Roar!

Countless blood-red eyes appeared in the dark depths of the forest. In the next instant, innumerable ferocious Genesis Beasts emerged with thunderous roars, and charged towards the disciples from the three sects.

“Attack!”

The disciples from the three sects did not hesitate. Countless Genesis Qi attacks unfurled, ruthlessly smashing into the incoming beast tide.

Berserk Genesis Qi shockwaves swept outwards, tearing apart the surrounding land.

The stench of blood instantly filled the area.

Faint shrieks rang out from various directions. The other groups that had entered the mountain forest after them had likely encountered similar Genesis Beast attacks.

The disciples of the three sects were elites, and their attacks were naturally exceptionally fierce and deadly. The charging Genesis Beasts were blasted to pieces before they could even reach the hundred feet radius mark around the group.

As the Genesis Beasts were being bombarded to death, strands of Qi infused with different colors rose from their bodies. It was shockingly Mythic Genesis essence.

The Genesis Beast that lived here seemed to have absorbed some Mythic Genesis essence into their bodies.

“Send twenty disciples to collect the Mythic Genesis essence.” Instructed Zhou Yuan. Although this Mythic Genesis essence was beneath his attention, it was very alluring to the other disciples.

At his words, several disciples immediately split off from the group, and quickly collected the Mythic Genesis essence drifting from the corpses as the main group continued to advance.

In this methodological manner, the disciples of the three sects continuously cut through the surging beast tide, as they steadily approached the depths of the forest.

But as they ventured deeper, stronger and stronger Genesis Beasts appeared. As time passed, even the disciples from the three sects began to feel some pressure.

Some of the Genesis Beasts managed to break through the attacks of the disciples, charging at the group to engage in battle with the disciples at the very front.

As both sides clashed, the disciples from the three sects gradually began to sustain some injuries.

At the sight of this, Zhou Yuan prepared to take to the frontlines as well, but was almost immediately stopped by Gu Hongyi.

Gu Hongyi said in a low voice, “Don’t waste your Genesis Qi here, the real battle will be later on, and you need to keep yourself at peak condition. Look at the other two groups, their chief disciples clearly have no intentions of acting now.”

Zhou Yuan’s gaze swept towards the other two teams. Sure enough, both Fan Yao and Tang Xiaoyan were commanding the other disciples from the center of the group, and had no intentions of participating in the battles.

It was exactly as Gu Hongyi had said. They were doing all they could to preserve as much Genesis Qi as possible for the sake of contesting for the final reward.
