Chapter 77: Chapter 77 - Target: Song Yang
"Damn it!"
Seeing Fang Yu disappear from the location, Song Yang couldn't help but curse lightly.
"Palace Master, should I send all the Shadow Demons to search for him?"
Suddenly, a shadow appeared in the void behind Song Yang and asked respectfully. It was Shi Hu, who had resumed his role of following Song Yang!
"There's no need," Song Yang directly refused, showing no concern.
After all, he knew exactly where Fang Yu would be next!
'It seems I'll have to go to that genius competition in the Eastern Region!' Song Yang thought with a smile.
After all, how could a destined child not participate in the largest genius competition in the Eastern Region, with a maximum age of 25?
In Song Yang's opinion, if he weren't in this world, that genius competition would be the perfect stage for this destined child to shine.
"But it's a pity for him that I transmigrated to this world. In front of me, all geniuses and even this so-called destined child can only be overshadowed!"
Not to mention that inside the competition, the destined child won't be able to escape!
Because, according to what Song Yang discovered about the secret realm where the genius competition is held, escaping using a Void Destroyer Talisman is impossible.
For this reason, he did not allow Shi Hu to order the Shadow Demons to pursue him.
Furthermore, even if they did pursue him, Song Yang didn't believe that the esteemed destined child would be easily found after today!
"But, I also underestimated this destined child a bit; I really didn't expect him to have a Void Destroyer Talisman!"
When he thought of the Void Destroyer Talisman, Song Yang's face couldn't help but turn a bit solemn, as even the Shura Palace didn't possess any talisman of this kind.
It's worth noting that the Shura Palace took all the treasures from the Celestial Sword Sect, which, although a second-tier sect, was not inferior in wealth to any of the major forces in the Eastern Region, and even superior to some dynasties!
But even so, Song Yang did not possess a Void Destroyer Talisman.
After all, it's no surprise, as only a powerful cultivator at the Quasi-Emperor realm has the capability to create Void Destroyer Talismans, which can break any restrictions and escape even from a 9th-level formation!
Therefore, if Song Yang, who is an Imperial Formation Master, had set up an imperial-level formation, Fang Yu would probably not have been able to escape.
But the problem was creating an imperial-level formation, which, in addition to requiring numerous materials that Song Yang did not possess, with his current cultivation, would take days or even weeks to construct.
Naturally, this was not feasible for Song Yang to do at the moment, especially considering it was just to deal with someone from the Divine Transformation Realm.
"What is this?"
Suddenly, Song Yang felt something in his spatial ring and couldn't help but pull out an object—it was a stone covered in mysterious markings that began to glow intensely.
This was the stone he obtained at the auction that took place in Beiyang City.
Seeing the stone in his hand glow brightly, Song Yang came back to his senses and looked around.
After a while, he turned his gaze in a certain direction and couldn't help but murmur softly:
"I found it."
Then he disappeared from the spot and appeared in the sky hundreds of meters away.
After hovering in the air, Song Yang waved his hand lightly, and an entrance to a secret realm appeared.
"It turns out that I was so busy focusing on the destined child that I didn't even notice this formation."
Song Yang murmured softly, looking at the 9th-level concealment formation in front of him.
After all, he was an Imperial Formation Master, but he was so focused that, without the twin connection formation in the stone, he wouldn't have noticed it.
'This is probably the inheritance of a Grand Sage!' Song Yang thought as he observed the secret realm from the outside.
But then he thought of something, and his expression turned solemn again.
Since this secret realm was very close to the location where Fang Yu was, if he hadn't come personally today, somehow, this inheritance could have ended up in Fang Yu's hands!
This is the power of a destined child!
"It seems that I really can't give this kid time to grow."
"If, being only at the Divine Transformation Realm, he has already obtained opportunities from a Grand Sage, what will happen when his cultivation reaches the Royal Realm or even the Saint Realm? Will he gain opportunities from a Grand Emperor?"
"In the genius competition, this kid needs to die!"
This was the first time since his arrival in this world that Song Yang treated an enemy with such seriousness!
After destroying the concealment and defensive formations of the secret realm with a simple wave, he turned and ordered Shi Hu, who had appeared behind him:
"Send some Shadow Demons to investigate this secret realm and collect all the resources."
"Yes, Palace Master," Shi Hu bowed and responded respectfully.
As for why Song Yang didn't enter personally, it was because he wasn't sure if there might be any danger inside, and because he had just seen something very interesting on his system.
"Yan Suye, Yan Suye, you are indeed very bold," Song Yang couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing the mission screen of the Shura Palace token.
[Target: Song Yang]
[Status: Eighth Prince of the Zhenfang Dynasty]
[Cultivation: Approximately 6-Star Saint]
[Reward Offered: A Vial of Sacred Nectar Essence]
[Location: Unknown]
[Contractor: Second Young Master of the Yan Chamber of Commerce, Yan Suye]
"You really requested for the Shura Palace to kill me? That's so ironic."
"But I'm a bit intrigued. Why do you want to kill me? It's been months since I last saw you."
Looking at the information, Song Yang was a bit confused. If it had been six months ago, such a request would have made some sense, but why send it now?
"But this Sacred Nectar Essence is a bit interesting."
"Since you want my life, I'll deliver it personally. Haha."
