<h4>Chapter 729 - 729</h4>


    ''''Aaaaahhhhh!!''''


    A miserable cry that was filled with indescribable horror and pain left youngdy Niu''s mouth a momentter, before her body turned limp.


    ''''Youngdy!'''' The red-robed, red-haired middle-aged man shouted in concern, as his body disappeared on the spot, appearing right next to the white-robed young woman almost immediately.


    At the same time, the cloud of Heavenly Tribtion above her head seemed to have disappeared after firing off the 3 bolts of white lightning, leaving behind an extremely stifling atmosphere.


    Finally, after a few moments of silence, one of the surrounding peak Dao Kings couldn''t help eximing in a low voice


    ''''Don''t tell me that youngdy Niu really died...''''


    ''''I hope not. Youngdy Niu''s master is ''old freak Gao'', one of the top masters in the central region who is just a step away from ascending and bing a true immortal! If she really died, I can''t even imagine how angry her master will be.? I heard that ''old freak Gao'' dotes on youngdy Niu so much, that he even ordered senior Feng to follow after her and keep her safe, so you can guess how important he considers youngdy Niu to be.''''


    ''''I know about this matter as well. It''s because youngdy Niu hasprehended a supreme Dao along with a unique Dao, that ''old freak Gao'' looks at her so favorably. There is even a chance that ''youngdy Niu'' can surpass her master in the future and possibly be a true immortal!''''


    ''''But look at the expression on senior Feng''s face! Things don''t look too good right now.''''


    Indeed, the look on the red-haired Sovereign realm expert''s face was extremely ugly to behold.


    Senior Feng could feel the life force inside youngdy Niu''s body seeping away uncontrobly, while her face had also turned pale, without a single hint of blood inside it.


    In the midst of this deathly silence, the sound of footsteps could suddenly be heard from the distance behind him, causing the red-haired middle-aged man to frown.


    As he turned his head around, senior Feng noticed a yellow-robed, short-haired young man walking towards his direction with his eyes closed.


    ''''Eh? Who is this kid? A peak rank 9 Nascent Soul stage cultivator can actually make it here?'''' A surprised look shed inside senior Feng''s eyes as he stared at Shun Long, who didn''t seem to be obstructed by the pressure of the surrounding Daos in the least as he walked inside this inner region of the King''s Pce.


    It wasn''t just senior Feng who was surprised upon seeing this scene.


    The surrounding Dao Kings who were waiting to see whether youngdy Niu had survived or not were also stunned when they noticed that another Nascent Soul stage cultivator had actually made it in this ce.


    Even someone like youngdy Niu who hadprehended a supreme Dao as her foundational Dao for her qi cultivation, along with a unique Dao for her body refinement cultivation, had only managed to make it this far inside the King''s Pce, and was clearly struggling with each step she took, and yet someone else at the same cultivation level could walk around this cepletely unhindered?


    For a moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten about youngdy Niu who was on the verge of death, as they stared at the ck-haired young man in yellow robes who was walking towards the depths of the King''s Pce with a frown on his face.


    Shun Long waspletely unaware of the attention he had attracted as he walked past senior Feng and youngdy Niu, as well as the group of Dao Kings that had surrounded them, and headed even deeper inside the King''s Pce.


    Everyone was extremely curious about Shun Long''s identity since they hadn''t heard of any other disciple who was at the same level as youngdy Niu entering the King''s Pce this time around.


    Even if such a person had entered, the Northern Sovereign should have been aware of it, and she would have definitely informed bigshots like ''senior Feng'' as well as the representatives of the big sects.


    ''''Could it be that the Nothern Sovereign intentionally hid this information from me?''''


    For a moment, senior Feng wanted to follow after Shun Long and see how far he could go, while he also wanted to find out more about Shun Long''s background, but it was at that moment that a series of violent coughings attracted his attention.


    Youngdy Niu''s lips were tainted with a crimson color as she coughed blood without stop, before she finally opened her eyes a few momentster.


    ''''Youngdy, how do you feel?''''


    Senior Feng asked in a relieved tone when he saw that youngdy Niu had opened her eyes, before he took out a crimson-colored pill from his spatial ring and fed it to the white-robed young woman.


    Regardless of how injured she was, as long as she wasn''t dead and could still regain consciousness, it meant that youngdy Niu had managed to survive the Heavenly Tribtion andplete her breakthrough.


    It was unknown what kind of pill the red-haired Sovereign realm expert had fed her, but a few moments after consuming the pill, the beautiful white-robed young woman had regained enough strength to move her body by herself, as she struggled to sit cross-legged on the ground.


    A few momentster, after she managed to stabilize her breathing, youngdy Niu turned to look at the sky above her and said in a relieved yet still fearful tone


    ''''I didn''t expect the Heavenly Tribtion to be this terrifying! Even after using a Saint high-grade martial skill, I still nearly died from it..''''


    Senior Feng nodded his head calmly without speaking.


    Indeed, youngdy Niu had been extremely lucky to survive her Heavenly Tribtion.


    In reality, youngdy Niu hade even closer to dyingpared to Jiang Chen when he had faced his Heavenly Tribtion half a day ago.


    Of course, the reason behind that was the difference in their defensive abilities.


    Although youngdy Niu''s ''Golden Bell'' came from a Saint high-grade defensive martial skill, the bell''s defensive abilities were far inferior to Jiang Chen''s when he activated his bloodline of the Demonic Crow of Darkness.


    After all, the Demonic Crow of Darkness was a Mythic-rank magic beast from the Immortal Dimension, and was even considered to be one of the stronger ones.


    It wasn''t an exaggeration to say that after using his immortal-grade bloodline, Jiang Chen could probably shatter youngdy Niu''s ''Golden Bell'' with just a couple of punches.


    This was why even though the 2 of them had practically faced an almost identical Heavenly Tribtion, youngdy Niu had ended up in a much worse situationpared to Jiang Chen.


    Seeing that youngdy Niu seemed to have recovered somewhat, senior Feng took a deep breath, before he said in a solemn tone


    ''''Youngdy, there is something that you need to know. Just now, when you were undergoing your Heavenly Tribtion.... a young man at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage passed by, and headed towards the depths of the King''s Pce!''''
