Panlong: Transcending from the Dominator of the Water System

Chapter 16: The Seizure of the Supreme God's Relic, Ninisha and Emmanuel
"A wondrous object of nature, called the Five-Colored Blood Crystal, is a fist-sized blood-red crystal composed of beams of five colors within its interior..."

Cromwell did not hide anything and briefly recounted what he knew.

The news of the five-colored blood crystal first came from the Black Dragon Tribe. The Black Dragon Tribe is an old tribe within the territory of Emperor Wing City. Because of the special black dragons they raise, although the leaders often change, the tribe itself has always existed. Strictly speaking, it can be considered a force under the Ye Mu Mansion.

Not long ago, a mid-level god obtained this blood crystal from an unknown source and killed a high-level god in a conflict, which attracted the attention of the tribe's higher-ups.

The tribe's three leaders launched a sneak attack and stole the Five-Colored Blood Crystal. With the power of the Blood Crystal, they successfully killed a five-star demon, but their unusual situation was discovered. Later, they were besieged by some covetous people and are currently on the run with the Five-Colored Blood Crystal.

"I see……"

Tilly immediately showed some interest, not because she herself liked rare and wondrous things, but because the chief god Palhaus had given her the order to collect rare and wondrous things, and she would receive a reward for completing the task.

Countless years ago, Dili presented Palhaus with a wondrous artifact that enhanced the soul's healing abilities, and in return received a large amount of divine power. Another messenger, Barbari, also received the reward of the right to reside on the Water God Island.

Over the years, among the many families in the divine plane that have clashed with the Four Divine Beasts, apart from the Augusta family, the Barbary family is in the best situation. The reason is that the Barbary family has completed too many tasks assigned by the chief god Palhaus and has obtained the right to reside on the Water God Island.

Water God Island is a dazzling island in the water-based divine plane, the residence of the water-based chief god Palhaus. It is inhabited by a small group of people, mostly natives who have never left, and outsiders are usually not allowed to live there.

When Parhouse gave his chief messengers a mission, the reward he gave included the right for outsiders to reside on Water God Island. Barbari had completed many missions and obtained a certain number of places. Half of the family's core disciples lived there permanently, but the members of the Four Divine Beasts families could not enter.

During the last interplane war, before Byer made his move, it was Barbari who desperately led the Mercury beings of the Water God Plane to the forefront, fighting a bloody battle against the twelve-winged angels of the Light God Realm.

"Miss Dili, if you are interested, you can go and take a look."

Cromwell chuckled, showing no interest in competing for it. After all, an unknown wonder of nature held little significance for him; it was better to give Tilly a verbal favor.

"If you're interested, let's go take a look together later and get the Five-Colored Blood Crystal before we leave."

Ninisha put down her teacup and spoke softly. Tilly had helped her a bit during this time, so she naturally didn't mind making another trip.

"Thank you very much."

Tilly nodded slightly. Although she felt that it wouldn't be difficult to snatch a five-colored blood crystal and that she could do it alone, she didn't mind if Ninisha was willing to come along.

……

While Tilly and Ninisha were traveling on the Bauhinia Continent, on the Blood Peak Continent, in the Lianyun Mountains, a man with long, blood-red hair sat at a stone table, wiping chess pieces with a silk cloth in his hand.

Although he could clean them with divine power, the Blood Peak God Pash simply enjoyed the feeling of wiping the chess pieces; it was a habit he had maintained for countless years.

"Hmm? Lord Hope?"

Pash immediately put down the chess piece in his hand, a look of surprise on his face, and quickly stood up to bow to the young man who had suddenly appeared.

"Long time no see, Pash."

Hope didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly opposite Pash. With a flick of her right hand, the chess pieces were instantly placed back in their positions.

"My lord, please!"

Pash was not surprised by this. As a famous chess player among the gods, Pash's social interactions revolved around chess. When meeting with other gods, he would usually play a game of chess before discussing matters. He had played with many gods.

Hope didn't hold back either, using her divine power to move a piece. Time passed quickly. Hope had very little time to think, as if she had already simulated it in her mind long ago. Pash's response was also sharp, and for a time they were locked in a fierce battle.

"I must say, Pash, your strength is still as formidable as ever."

Years later, Hope looked at the last piece each side had left and sighed softly.

"The master's strength has also increased a lot; Pash almost lost."

Blood Peak God Pash also wiped the sweat from his forehead. This was not a compliment, but the truth.

In chess, the ability to deduce is the most important factor. The stronger one's soul is, the stronger one's chess skills will be. Pash had a fortuitous encounter in the early days of the world and refined a special artifact of heaven and earth, making his soul extremely strong. He has played against Theresia, the wind god at the Great Perfection, and the Lord of Destruction, and none of them could beat him.

Lord Hope, the ruler of the water element, is considered his strongest opponent. He is someone who cannot be defeated without going all out. Pash also guessed that Hope was probably hiding his true strength, but he had never told anyone.

"Sir, what brings you here?"

After the game ended, Pash smiled and asked, knowing Hope as he did, that he probably wouldn't have come specifically to play chess with him.

"I've been traveling around Hell for a while, and I thought I'd drop by to check on you and also find out what Redding and the other three are up to?"

Hope chuckled and didn't hide anything. Although he came for Ninisha, the envoy, the actions of the Four Divine Beasts did indeed pique his curiosity.

"About this, I'm sorry, sir, Pash really doesn't know. Redding and the others acted without any warning; it seems like a sudden decision."

Pash shook his head with a wry smile, replying somewhat helplessly that, in fact, the Lord of Destruction had also asked him this question, but he really didn't know anything about it.

"Really? Those four certainly know how to cause trouble."

Upon hearing this, Hope didn't ask any further questions. Although Pash hadn't discovered anything, the fact that he hadn't discovered anything was itself a discovery.

If Redding and his team had truly researched some new technique, they should have started many years ago. If they suddenly make a big move, it can only mean they are hiding something.

A blue glint flashed in Hope's eyes, but he stopped thinking about it and started a new match with Pash.

...Ten years later, in Yemu Prefecture, in the Siyasla Mountains, a region under the jurisdiction of Diyi City.

The mountain range stretched out in a continuous expanse, with golden veins crisscrossing it. From a distance, it seemed that many tribes were active there. However, at this moment, high in the sky at the center of the mountain range, more than a dozen figures exuding powerful auras confronted each other.

The leader was a man in a gray robe, holding a crystal that emitted five kinds of light in his hand, his eyes flashing with disdain.

A dozen figures surrounded the gray-robed man, each exuding murderous intent, yet none of them made the first move.

If intelligence personnel from Emperor Wing City were to arrive here, they would immediately discover that the dozen or so figures surrounding the gray-robed man were all five-star demon powerhouses from Emperor Wing City, numbering more than a dozen, one of whom had only recently become a six-star demon.

"You lot, leave now. I, Urnisen, am too lazy to kill you."

The gray-robed man held the five-colored blood crystal, a hint of excitement on his face, and slowly spoke.

As a veteran Seven-Star Demon of Yemu Mansion, Ulnisen has been living in seclusion for a long time. He usually only arranges for his Dark God clone to enjoy himself in Moon Lake Castle, while his Death God clone is in seclusion for cultivation.

This time, I happened to hear that a treasure called the Five-Colored Blood Crystal was circulating in the Black Dragon Tribe of Emperor Wing City. It could strengthen the body and allow a mid-level god to kill a high-level god. Although Ulnisen thought it was a rumor, he still became interested.

Just now, as a group of people were fighting over the Five-Colored Blood Crystal, Ulnisen suddenly appeared, instantly killing the person holding the Five-Colored Blood Crystal and seizing it, shocking everyone around.

Ulnisen's speed was too fast for the others to follow, and they fell silent. However, when Ulnisen told them to leave, everyone's faces turned grim, and the six-star demon Fast even frowned and spoke:
“Mr. Ulnison, aren’t you being a bit too domineering? I am from Demon Castle and serve Lord Emperor Wing. You’d better hand over the item.”

In Fast's opinion, Ulnison should also be a six-star demon. He was not confident in defeating him, but he was unwilling to give up on the item he had been pursuing for so long. He could use the prestige of the Lord of the Imperial Wing City to intimidate him.

"You mean the Lord of Imperial Wing City? Ha, it seems I, Urnisen, have been living in seclusion for too long."

The man in the gray robe, Ulnisen, hovered in mid-air, his long eyebrows drooping down to his chest and fluttering in the wind. His blood-red eyes revealed a hint of disdain as he sighed and spoke.

"Shh!"

The next second, a blood-red glint flashed in Ulnisen's eyes, and two semi-transparent beams of light instantly entered Fast's body. Fast's body stiffened, then his eyes dimmed and closed.
"A six-star demon trying to intimidate me with Stuart? Even if Stuart himself came, he would have to give Ulnisen face."

Ulnisen spoke in a cold tone, then glanced around.

The dozen or so people around were dumbfounded. Fast was the strongest among them, the only six-star demon, yet he was killed in one move. They all realized a terrible fact: the Ulnisen in front of them was definitely a seven-star demon!

“Lord Ulnisen, since you wish, you may take this five-colored blood crystal.”

A few seconds later, one of them forced a smile and spoke, gritting his teeth.

"Humph!"

Ulnisen glanced at the people around him, snorted coldly, and without saying anything more, turned to leave.

However, the next moment, a sudden change occurred—

"Shh!"

A pale blue bolt of lightning arced through the air, drawing the multicolored, blood-red crystal with a powerful force, instantly landing it in the hand of a purple-haired girl.

"You? Who are you? Miss Ninisha?"

Ulnisen's pupils shrank instantly, and he stared at the scene in utter bewilderment, his tone becoming much more respectful.

Although Ulnisen is known as a recluse, he never misses any news about the Demon Castle. A million years ago, in Snow Lake Prefecture, not far from Ye Mu Prefecture, a battle on the arena that shocked the entire prefecture took place, and Ulnisen was fortunate enough to witness the Floating Shadow.

Both sides in the battle possessed Shura-level strength. One was the purple-haired woman Ninisha, and the other was the bald boy Resjing. Ulnisen was naturally familiar with their appearances.

"I want this five-colored blood crystal!"

Nini Sha, dressed in a light purple robe and covered with a layer of fine lightning armor, glanced at Ulnisen while holding the five-colored blood crystal and spoke indifferently.

After leaving Imperial Wing City, Ninisha and Tilly went their separate ways to search for the Five-Colored Blood Crystal based on clues. After all, Tilly had helped Ninisha a lot during this time, and Ninisha promised Tilly that they would get it together and that she would give the Five-Colored Blood Crystal to Tilly.

After Ninisha finished speaking, without waiting for Ulnisen's response, she put the five-colored blood crystal into her spatial ring, transformed it into purple lightning, and left.

Ulnisen's face turned pale and then red, but in the end he didn't dare to stop him, only feeling a burning pain on his face.

"and many more!"

Just as Ninisha was about to leave, a voice filled with arrogance rang out. After a flash of blue light, two blue beams appeared, and a bald man in a red robe slowly emerged, followed by a blue-haired youth.

Emmanuel, dressed in a red robe, glanced indifferently at Ninisha and spoke:
“This five-colored blood crystal is for our Four Divine Beasts Clan. Leave it behind and then depart.”

Emmanuel merely glanced at Ninisha and spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, as if it were perfectly reasonable for Ninisha to hand over the items to him.

"Elder Emmanuel of the Four Divine Beasts Clan?"

Ulnisen exclaimed in surprise, his face darkening further. He felt a sense of absurdity and regretted going out to compete for the Five-Colored Blood Crystal.

"An elder of the Four Divine Beasts family? Emmanuel?"

Ninisha paused, glanced at Emmanuel, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
