Chapter 1062: Chapter 667

"A High Grade Spirit Artifact level Space Treasure..."

The old man with crane-like hair and youthful features stood in mid-air, sensing the gradually dissipating spatial fluctuations.

His complexion was ugly, and he felt immensely shocked.

The power of the silver flying boat that had just shaken off his spatial hand was unquestionably at the High Grade Spirit Artifact level.

Even he had never possessed such an artifact.

The only High Grade Spirit Artifact owned by their Gongshu Family had been taken away by an ancestor who is traveling through other Great Worlds.

Even he, the contemporary Clan Leader, was not qualified to wield it.

During this period of chase with Space Shifting, he had truly confirmed.

The thief wearing the Ghost Face Mask was indeed only a Golden Core Realm cultivator.

Because he had never felt any trace of Primordial Spirit Realm power emanating from the other party.

A mere Golden Core Realm cultivator possessing the power to slay Primordial Spirit Realm, and furthermore owning a High Grade Space Spirit Artifact!

This absurdity nearly rendered the old man with crane-like hair incredulous.

"Could this person be the Evil Demon who killed Zheng Er back then? No, the Divine Soul aura is different!"

The old man with crane-like hair couldn’t help but think of someone.

During the calamity at Tianshu Divine Mountain years ago, an Evil Demon in the Golden Core Realm consecutively slew several Primordial Spirit Realms.

Even Gongshu Zheng, the youngest and most promising member of their Gongshu Family, met a tragic end at the hands of that Evil Demon.

This prompted various major forces to offer astronomical bounties for the Evil Demon’s head.

Could it be that this time, the Evil Demon came specially for revenge?

Yet according to those Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators back then, the Evil Demon was astonishingly robust in physical body, far exceeding ordinary Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators.

This time, however, the mysterious assassin appeared purely as a Sword Cultivator, with remarkable Sword Qi and possessing all sorts of elusive techniques, hard to guard against.

The difference between the two was too great, even their Divine Soul auras were completely different.

The only commonality was that both possessed mysterious Space Treasures, capable of Space Shifting with Golden Core Realm cultivation.

Moreover, the Sword Qi the thief exhibited just now closely resembled the legendary Secret Sword Qi from a Sword Dao Sacred Land.

"First, it was an Evil Demon with an absurdly strong physical body, now appears a suspected Sword Cultivator from the Sky-breaking Sword Sect, both capable of slaying Primordial Spirit cultivators in Golden Core Realm, both mastering powerful Space Treasures—could they be from the same mysterious faction?"

The old man with crane-like hair had fluctuating thoughts and felt a deep sense of worry.

Vaguely, he seemed to sense some major upheaval on the horizon.

The assassin had publicly assassinated men in Zhou Tian City, consecutively slaying several Primordial Spirit Great Powers, finally leaving at leisure.

This was a severe blow to their Gongshu Family, potentially affecting the rankings of the Thirty-Six Upper Clans next time.

These various changes created an indescribable suffocating sense of impending doom.

After a moment of silence in the high sky, the old man with crane-like hair sighed, and finally, with a wave of Spatial Power, his figure abruptly vanished.

After more than ten shifts, he returned to Zhou Tian City.

"Father, what happened, where is the thief?"

Seeing his figure appear, the Family Head of the Second Branch and other Gongshu Family elders eagerly asked.

Other Primordial Spirit Great Powers also looked over.

"Discuss later."

The old man with crane-like hair did not immediately respond but directly flew back to the Inner City.

The other Gongshu Family elders looked at each other, a bad premonition rising in their hearts.

Still, they didn’t continue to press questions, instead following the old man with crane-like hair back to the Inner City.

Soon, a light curtain rose, and the Circulation Star Array restarted, covering the whole of Zhou Tian City.

Yet this time, many Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators felt that the suppression within the city seemed slightly weaker.

Thinking of the mysterious assassin who had escaped and the empty-handed return of the Gongshu Family Patriarch, Outer City Primordial Spirit Realms began to speculate.

"The assassin escaped, I failed to catch up."

After restarting the Circulation Star Array, the old man with crane-like hair spoke directly.

"Father, how could it be..."

Though they had somewhat sensed it earlier, hearing the old man with crane-like hair confirm it shocked the Gongshu Family elders.

After all, they were well acquainted with their father’s strength.

A dignified Five Tribulation Primordial Spirit, having comprehended Space Dao and mastered Space Shifting Technique.

Such strength is regarded powerful even among Five Tribulation Primordial Spirits.

Yet now, the assassin still managed to escape, what exactly happened among them?

"The thief’s hands controlled a High Grade Spirit Artifact level Space Treasure, deliberately luring me out, then activated the treasure to break through space and escape when there was no interference.

Although I comprehended Spatial Power, my Space Shifting Technique has limited transmission distance, and I could not pursue further."

The old man with crane-like hair did not hide anything, revealing all events.

A High Grade Spirit Artifact, and still a Space Treasure!

Upon hearing this, the Gongshu Family elders were shocked, but finally understood why their father couldn’t capture the assassin.

A High Grade Spirit Artifact level Space Treasure boasted extremely long Space Shift distances, even breaking through the Boundary Membrane of the Heavenly Origin Great World was likely.

The father’s inability to continue chasing was naturally expected.

However, failing to catch the assassin meant their Gongshu Family’s reputation would suffer a substantial hit.
