BXBX NOVEL 808 Chapter 808
As the seal fueling the barrier shattered and revealed the entrance to the Rank 2 treasure cave abode, the eyes of all the gathered martial artists lit up as they rushed forward at the same time, swarming towards the entrance.
Although the cave abode was sealed for countless years, there was no rotten smell within it. Instead, it was filled with an invigorating medicinal scent!
The masses charged forward and before long, their vision opened up in the depths of the cave.
A gigantic bright bluish tinted pool resided at the end of the cave abode.
Many crystalline bottles were floating on it, looking dense and compacted.
Each of those precious bottles contained elixirs of varying kind.
The reason why the elixirs were not rotten after thousands of years was because they were nourished by the strange liquid in the cave abode.
The reason was simple: That liquid wasn\'t an ordinary one…
It was a true Mana Pool!
Clear words were etched on the surfaces of the crystal bottles.
Countless elixirs of every kind for these martial artists were present: The Elusive Instant Spirit Restoration potion, that unlike the normal grade versions wouldn\'t provide an instant boost to those battle-tanked Mana Reserves upon gulping it down…
The elusive Lesser Body Enhancement Salve that, as it name suggests would provide a slight improvement to one\'s physique once it would be mixed into one\'s bathwater.
Or even the incredibly rare and hard to find Spirit Sensing Elixir that would -for a limited time- would provide a boost to one\'s aptitude in sensing and absorbing the freely available spirit particles in the air, thus providing a temporary boost to one\'s cultivation session.
The elixirs that everyone were familiar with were all available.
Some of the elixirs that had been lost to the world and would mostly only be found in the historical scrolls were also floating and preserved in the Mana Pool.
In fact, there were even some elixirs that nobody heard of!
However, none of this was important. Well, they were but not for the time being. Everyone\'s eyes were fixed on the Mana Pool, searching for a particular elixir – the legendary Breakthrough Elixir!
"[Reptilian] There! Over there!"
Someone with a keen eye caught sight of a Breakthrough Elixir\'s simplistic looking bottle and exclaimed excitedly.
*SWASH!* *SWOSH!* *SWASH!*
A series of figures bolted over, reaching out for the Breakthrough Elixir in the Mana Pool.
"[Reptilian] Scram you pathetic filth!"
Pei Syriac shouted and channeled his mana. In the next moment, crystal-like rays of light covered his skin! Punching in reverse, he ruptured the head of an itinerant martial artist beside him!
Completely helpless to resist, a headless corpse fell from midair before the person could make a single sound.
At the side, someone withdrew a bronze short sword and pierced towards Pei Syriac\'s head without hesitation. His expression revealed prime murderous intent.
Without dodging or retreating, Pei Syriac extended his palm and caught the bronze short sword in the middle of it!
Shocking those present, his palm was completely unharmed!
Pei Syriac\'s artifact weapon was a pair of gloves which unlike those that were present- was of a higher grade; he did not have to fear his opponent\'s measly bronze short sword at all.
"[Reptilian] Hmph, someone the likes of you with such weak strength had the audacity to wish to fight with me for the Breakthrough Elixir?! How presumptuous!"
Laughing coldly, Pei Syriac exerted force with his palm and snapped the bronze short sword into two, pushing in reverse.
It was a well known fact that the Crystal Palace sect martial artists possessed immense bodily strength and the snapped sword turned into a beam of light, piercing the other martial artist\'s chest, spurting a stream of fresh blood.
In the span of a few seconds, now another person was dead.
Displaying his might, Pei Syriac\'s fists were like a pair of huge hammers and no one could stand in his way!
Although some of the itinerant martial artists were at the peak Martial Warrior realm, or even crossed into the Martial Master realm as well, they were still no match for someone as talented as Pei Syriac. A single punch from him was enough to snap their tendons and bones, causing their bodies to explode!
In the blink of an eye, Pei Syriac had killed almost all the opposing martial artists around him.
He wasn\'t the only asura in this makeshift, small and confined battlefield either. On the other side, Yang Zahn wielded a fearsome looking bone spear that was covered with blood. His expression was grim and he did not hold back at all, killing dozens of martial artists consecutively and staining the Mana Pool in a darker shade of green; the color of dozens of Draconic Skink\'s freshly spilled blood.
The two successors of the two major sects, Malefic Demons Clan and the Crystal Palace Sect, stood right at the front of the Mana Pool and were on killing sprees – nobody dared to advance at all!
The two of them exchanged glances and leaped at almost the same time, extending their arms to reach for the small crystal bottle containing the legendary vial, the Breakthrough Elixir.
"[Reptilian] How dare you?!"
"[Reptilian] "You have a death wish!"
Pei Syriac\'s eyes were filled with killing intent as his hands changed trajectory, grabbing towards Yang Zahn\'s wrist.
Although the Dark Lord Yang Zahn was the young demonic heir of the Malefic Demons Clan, he could not compare to Pei Syriac in terms of physique.
If he was grabbed by Pei Syriac, that hand of his would be crippled for good!
Left with no other choice, Yang Zahn retreated. His eyes flashed with malice as he remarked coldly.
"[Reptilian] If I can\'t get my hands on it, you don\'t have to dream about doing so either!"
As he retreated, a mysterious spear tip popped out from Yang Zahn\'s ribs. Filled with a thick malevolent aura, it shone brightly with spirit light and stabbed towards Pei Syriac\'s open, greedy palm.
Although Yang Zahn\'s bone spear was not a too high grade artifact weapon, it was basked in malevolent aura day and night for dozens of years and its might could not be underestimated as well.
The collision of the two mighty weapons, coupled with the strength of the both of them, caused a golden and black burst of light to spread from the surface of the Mana Pool!
*PIAK!* *PIAK!* *PIAK!*
There was no way the delicate crystal bottles floating on the surface of the Mana Pool could withstand that amount of force as they shattered, spilling out countless elixirs that choked everyone with a rich medicinal aroma!
Among the countless elixirs, there was a handful of Breakthrough Elixirs that were of excellent quality – almost all of them had four patterns and were at supreme-grade!
"[Reptilian] Huh?"
Almost at the same time, both of their gazes landed on one of the surviving vials still floating in the Mana Pool.
Although that particular Breakthrough Elixir was obviously smaller than the others, it had an intricite, unique pattern made of silver ethereal thread on its surface!
They immediately understood it. It wasn\'t a normal Breakthrough Elixir… but one of much rarer! Much more mythical, much more fabled and shrouded within history… It was a perfect grade Breakthrough Elixir!
Both of their gazes turned fiery and their breathings intensified.
Given their potentials, such an elixir could boost them not just a single realm and grant them entry to the Grandmaster realm like they hoped… No, it could even boost them even further, granting them access to at least the mid stage -if not the late stage even- in one fell swoop!
However, even better, if they were to be successfull in quelling their desires and hold off on drinking it until they naturally stepped into the Grandmaster realm which, considering their talent and potential was just a matter of time, they could have a serious chance to push through that thick barrier of this world and become Quasi-Divine entities!
Right now, apart from Pei Syriac and Yang Zahn, no one dared to close in to the vicinity of the Mana Pool.
Pei Syriac had a serious expression as he said slowly.
"[Reptilian] Yang Zahn, there\'s only one of that vial present here. You had better not fight me for it!"
"[Reptilian] Hehe."
Yang Zahn revealed a strange smile.
"[Reptilian] You want me to back off with just a few words of yours? Everything is dependent on our own capabilities. I\'ll see for myself just how strong your fabled Crystal Palace Sect\'s secret techniques are!"
"[Reptilian] Alright, I\'ll let you have a taste then!"
Before his words were finished, Pei Syriac strode forward and sped towards Yang Zahn.
Pei Syriac had a strong physique and specialized in melee combat, Yang Zahn would definitely lose if the former closed in!
Naturally, Yang Zahn understood that as well as he flicked his wrist and channeled spirit energy furiously into the bone spear.
In the blink of an eye, the bone spear broke into 11 pieces!
The weapon was similar to the strange weapon Aiden had faced before outside Ugburg City when he was ambushed!
