Dragon Prince Yuan - Chapter 561

Chapter 561

Tri-colored light rose from the remains of the Mythic Copper Worm Tree, making the air seem a little more colorful, while a strange fragrance filled the area .

Gu Hongyi, Zhou Tai and the other disciples stared at the tri-colored light with happiness in their eyes, while stirring restlessly as if unable to control themselves .

Fortunately, they did not allow their rationality to be washed away, and instead turned their gazes towards Zhou Yuan . He was currently their leader, and they would await his instructions .

In addition, if not for Zhou Yuan’s lightning quick attack earlier that had slayed the worm hidden inside the copper tree, it would have been really difficult for them to destroy it .

Zhou Yuan watched the tri-color light continuously flow out from the broken trunk, as amazement flitted across his eyes . His Qi Dwelling had started to tremble in desire the moment the light appeared .

From this, one could see just how attractive the Mythic Genesis essence was to the Qi Dwelling .

“Everyone split into seven groups to collect the Mythic Genesis essence, while one group stands guard . The guard shift will rotate amongst all the groups . ” Zhou Yuan looked at the many disciples and said, “The Mythic Genesis essence will surely cause quite a disturbance, and may draw prying gazes . ”

The other disciples' expressions shivered when they heard this . There were indeed several factions in the area, and if the Mythic Genesis essence was discovered by them, the Cangxuan Sect disciples would have to face some trouble .

The Mythic Genesis essence was just far too valuable in the Mythic Utopia, and everyone would definitely compete for it .

After a brief discussion, about ten figures flew out from the big group and landed on various spots in the vicinity, before vigilantly watching the surroundings for any signs of activity .

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yuan nodded and said, “Go ahead and start collecting, as for how much each of you will collect, that will depend on your own abilities . ”

The moment his words rang out, all of the remaining disciples began to split up, each finding a spot for themselves, before Genesis Qi began rising from their heads to gather the tri-color flowing light .

Zhou Yuan sat down near the broken trunk, where there was obviously the highest concentration of Mythic Genesis essence . He did not bother trying to act modest . As the leader, he was the strongest individual here and had the right to enjoy the best treatment .

Golden Genesis Qi rose from the top of Zhou Yuan’s head, forming a glowing ball that began to spin . A suction force emerged from a hole on the top portion of the ball, absorbing strand after strand of tri-color light .

The tri-color light was not pure Mythic Genesis essence, and had to be constantly compressed and refined while being collected to become true Mythic Genesis essence . This was the only way to create a Divine Establishing Treasure .


Though it was a tedious and slow process, Zhou Yuan did not show any impatience . He calmly gathered the tri-color light for an incense stick of time, before beckoning with his hand .

The golden light ball slowly descended as the bottom split open, revealing a resplendent tri-color glow .

The other disciples looked over in envy . They were only half way, while Zhou Yuan had already succeeded . One could see that there was indeed quite a gap in power between the two parties .

The refined tri-color light was somewhat viscous as it quietly swirled on Zhou Yuan’s palm . It gave off a cooling sensation akin to jade, and Zhou Yuan could feel a mysterious power within it . His Qi Dwelling shuddered as the ten thousand Genesis Qi stars inside twinkled brightly .



“So this the true Mythic Genesis essence…”

Zhou Yuan concentrated on the viscous tri-color light in his hand as a sliver of desire flitted across his eyes . Next, he opened his mouth and swallowed it in a single gulp .

The viscous tri-color light flowed into his body, heading straight into the Qi Dwelling, before slowly swirling about within it .

A tri-color glow spread, dying the Genesis Qi stars as they quietly grew brighter as if being refined .

However, this little bit of Mythic Genesis essence was clearly far from enough to create a Divine Establishing Treasure .

Zhou Yuan had already anticipated this, and was thus not disappointed by this result . With a wave of his hand, the golden Genesis Qi ball rose once more, hovering above the broken tree trunk as it continued to absorb the tri-color light that spurted out, and slowly refining it into Mythic Genesis essence . . .

From how it continued to spurt out, the Mythic Genesis essence here should be enough to last them several days . All they needed to do now was to calmly collect .

Zhou Yuan peered into the distance as he mumbled to himself, “I hope that we’ll be able to peacefully harvest the Mythic Genesis essence over the next few days . ”

However, he also understood that it was most likely wishful thinking . After all, the disturbance created by the spouting Mythic Essence was not small, and there was even a strange fragrance spreading . It was basically impossible for them to hide it .



There were several factions roaming about in the area, and they would most definitely move if they found Zhou Yuan and his team .

Iciness flashed in Zhou Yuan’s lowered eyes . He had occupied this location, and if any blood fool wanted to snatch the Mythic Genesis essence away, they would have to first ask his Heavenly Yuan Brush if it agreed .

…

Nothing much happened on the first day, allowing Zhou Yuan and the rest to harvest the essence in peace for a day . However, this peace was broken on the second day .

It was exactly as Zhou Yuan had predicted . Figures began to appear one after another in the vicinity of the mountain .

They were the various factions that had been drawn to this place by the disturbance and the peculiar fragrance .

The figures hid away in groups of two and three, greed flashing in their eyes as they stared at the tri-color light spouting from the mountain top . They could naturally tell that this was three-color Mythic Genesis essence!

A grade of essence that was extremely rare in the initial exploratory stage of the Mythic Utopia!

The best they had found during the entire first day was two-color Mythic Genesis essence, so it was a little hard to believe there was so much three-color Mythic Genesis essence in this place . One could easily imagine how huge of a deposit it was .

With greed urging them on, several restless individuals attempted to slip into the mountain . Fortunately, the guards on duty immediately discovered these individuals and swiftly chased them off .



Under Zhou Yuan’s directions, a disciple’s thunderous shout rumbled in warning, “This excavation site was discovered by our Cangxuan Sect . If anyone dares to trespass, don’t blame us for showing no mercy!”

Hearing the Cangxuan Sect’s name managed to intimidate some individuals . Moreover, they could also see that there were many Cangxuan Sect disciples on the mountain, a force that was indeed rather powerful . With so few members, there was no way that the former would be able to even bargain for a slice of the pie .

However, they did not give up just like that, and instead began to spread the news . As such, more and more factions began to appear in the surroundings over the brief span of half a day .

The gradually gathering factions began to put some pressure on Gu Hongyi, Zhou Tai, Lu Yan and the rest of the disciples . They could likewise tell that the Cangxuan Sect’s name was not enough to suppress the greed of these people .

Fortunately, although more and more people were gathering in the vicinity of the mountain, all of them clearly belonged to smaller factions . No party would submit to another, making them akin to scattered sand, refusing to cooperate .

However, a change finally occurred on the third day .

A team of over thirty people arrived .

This team gave off a powerful presence, and was clearly very different from the others . They were from the Little Thunder Gate, a first class faction of the Shengzhou Continent . Although there was still a gap between them and the Cangxuan Sect, they were quite renowned in the Shengzhou Continent .

When the members of the Little Thunder Gate appeared, the scattered groups in the vicinity of the mountain were quickly recruited . As a result, the gathered force at the foot of the mountain finally became a real threat to the Cangxuan Sect disciples .
