Chapter 535 - Not Acknowledge

Surrounding the Gloomy Cave entrance, four out of Nine great families had already stationed themselves around the large entrance. 

They had built camps around the place, they wasn't too far, not too close to each other. 

The arrival of the Kirrin Family caught the attention of the other family present. Since the earlier the eight families are completed, the early they all would be allowed to transverse into the ancient battle field. 

As the arrived, David could feel multiple waves of power probing and reaching out to him to sense his strength. Naturally, David let them since the more he was been underestimated, the more better it would be for him later within the battle ground. 

He had just scanned around for any potential threat when his eyes instantly locked into a single person within the Lycain Family. 

David was stunned as the person name escaped his lips. "Nihyuh?"

He thought he was seeing things, but after a few seconds, David was able to recognise the person. 

It truly was Nihyuh. David was excited to see someone he was familiar with, he took a step forwards and was about to move towards his direction when someone stood in his way. 

"What do you think you are doing?" One of the four helpers of the young master asked. 

David frowned slightly. As he glanced at the person standing in his way. It was the same person Flint had sent almost 12 inches into the ground, but it appears this young man hadn't learnt his lessons yet. 

"What does it look like I'm doing?" David retorted. 

"To me and to everyone else, it looked like you are going to the enemy's camp to inform them of our strength and weakness." The violet eyed man speculated with a smirk. 

David couldn't help but roll his eyes. "If I want to do something like that, you'd think I would do it so openly? Use your brain and don't be stupid."

The young man's expression darkened and he was about to argue when the voice of the young master interrupted them.

"What's happening here Aheali?"

"Young master, not to be rude but I warned you about this traitor, he was about to go to one of the other eight families to inform then of our strategies." Aheali the young man with the violet eye responded, very quick to point David out as the traitor. The others looked on, but refused to say anything to help or interject.

David massaged his head, this young man was trying to make things difficult for him probably because he had embarrassed him in front of anyone.

"Is this true?" The young master glanced at Aheali and then at David.

David shrugged. "I saw someone I knew from my institute over there, I was about to go greet the person when this idiot started making assumptions."

"See! This is what I'm talking about! Young master, you-"

"Keep quiet." It was just a two word sentence that came out from young master Alan's mouth softly, but Aheali words got stuck in his throat as he refused to say a single word.

Although feeling indignant, he kept his mouth shut. He was aware about one thing, the opportunity to venture within the battlegeouns has been granted to him by the young master, it was something he should be grateful about. Therefore, he didn't want to ruin it because of some useless person.

"Since the person was your classmate, I permit you to go meet whoever the person is as long as you don't stay too far from the camp." The servants were almost done with making the camps in the area they had selected.

David was surprised, and he gazed intently at the young master before nodding his head. "Thanks for your permission."

With that he took off. An headache wa already forming from the drama that had just taken place. This was why he hated teaming up with people, the drama was something he absolutely loathed. 

His eyes fixated on the young man within the Lycain Family speaking to a group of people that were surrounding him. David frowned and his footstep heading towards that direction stopped.

He could feel that Nihyuh was someone of a very high status and possibly a young master like Alan. 

David had just stopped when Nihyuh seem to have noticed something, his nose flared and he shifted his neck sideways. Hie eyes immediately locked onto another pair of eyes and he was stunned.

But after a few seconds, it was as though northing has happened as he turned back towards his people as they continued discussing. 

David's eyebrow rose slightly and he squinted his eyes, with that he headed back to the Kirrin Family's tent. 

Time passed and roughly at the exact timing of an hour, the eight Families and their representatives had all arrived. 

"It is finally time." David's eyes opened from his meditation. And he stood up from his cross-legged position, heading out from his tent. 

Within a few minutes, they eight families had gathered a kilometer away from the Gloom Cave. Since the murderous intent was so high, staying close to the Gloom Cave would definitely affect one's mentality and those of low willpower would turn insane with time.

To avoid that, they had withdrawn more than a thousand meters away from the cave. 

At the sky, a very ancient and old looking man could be seen floating as though standing on an invincible platform. No one really knows who the man was, but it's been said they the right family respected the old man a great deal and had invited him to oversee thw Gloom Cave incase other families had any ideas about entering the cave 

Seeing that the Nine families have all gathered, the old man began to speak. 

"The battle ground is filled with countless treasures and dangers, a pity only those of the younger generation amand limited strength are permitted into the cave."

Sighing softly the old man raised his hands wide as he glanced to the skies. "Let the treasure hunt begin."

The others were stunned at first since the old man's speech was very short, but it made senses, the man was old after all, every moment meant much to him he wouldn't waste it speaking senseless words. 

Rumble!!! 

The atmosphere shook as multiple people took off with speed that could put a bullet to shame.

The waves here prevented any twch from been taken out and then used, otherwise numerous sky walkers would have been taken out and then used immediately. 

David sped through the terrain with the young master in front and the others surrounding him as they headed towards the cave.

But as they got closer, their speed also gradually started to decrease. There seem to be some sort of barrier as the air resistance was gradually increasing as they got closer.

David was moving at the young master's speed, with his strength, he barely noticed the air resistance, but he noticed the others speed was also getting slower.

As they hit 800 meters to the cave, their speed had suffered a whopping 20 percent decrease and it didn't seem that it was all as the closer they get to the cave the fiercer the air resistance is.

David could see the eldest son of the Qilin family had overtaken them, with his axe on both hands, he dashes through the grass fields like a meteor, tearing apart the tall grasses like foams.

The princess was with her group, but she was slightly faster than the Young master Alan but was behind the eldest young master.

David frowned slightly. He could tell young master Alan was purposely stalling, reducing his own speed, but he just couldn't tell why. Surely, his strength was greater than that.

David glanced at the other eight families and could see that they weren't using their full speed either, as though they were waiting for something.

600 meters... 500 meters... Four hundred meters...

Boom!

David's face had a strange twist as he felt as though an hammer had been slammed into his brain. His speed took a drastic decrease as he frowned slightly, with his senses, he could tell that this happened to everyone, not a single person excluded. 

"A mental strength attack?" David was surprised, but if there was something he was the least scared of apart from a physical attack, it was mental attack. 

In just a second, he had gotten used to the repelling mental waves and was about to move when he saw his other teammates had slightly pale expressions, but they had managed within the span of a minute. 

The young master got used to it quicker than the others which wasn't a surprise to David. With that, the team continued forwards. 

300 meters... 200 meters... 100 meters...

Rumble! 

Another brutal wave of killing intent slammed into their brains and one could literally see the black waves of evil roiling ofd from the Gloom Cave, attacking them fiercely!

David gritted his teeth softly aa he ensured the twisted thoughts popping up in his brain.. "Not now."
