Chapter 2297 Raw 2404 : Behind You

Various exciting scenes occurred in the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb. The huge light screen in the imperial palace’s drill ground displayed these scenes at all times.

Under the control of the imperial ancestral temple’s patriarchs, the light screen showed the various feudal lords and powerhouses everything.

“The Thirteenth Prince is incredible. He split into three groups and already conquered four Inferior Grade inheritances.”

Wang Yi’s guests were mostly outstanding talents with Great Desolate Eon bloodlines. When they first entered the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb, they held a considerable advantage.

The other princes’ guests had to endure the spatial pressure and did not dare to clash with others.

The moment they ran into any setbacks, they mostly chose to withdraw.

The spatial pressure in the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb was simply too intense. The Great Desolate Eon aura present everywhere made it difficult for them to bring out even fifty percent of their strength.

These people could only wait until they collected sufficient Dragon Essence and acclimatized to the spatial pressure here.

“The First Prince is truly lucky; he actually managed to find a Superior Grade inheritance!”

The light screen showed the First Prince leading Zhuo Yu and others of his party to conquer an inheritance that obviously possessed stronger Dragon Essence than other places.

However, everyone understood in their hearts whether it was due to the First Prince’s good fortune or the insider information that the imperial ancestral temple’s patriarchs provided.

“Hahaha! The Fourth Prince is very unlucky. He did not find any inheritances and could only hunt ferocious beasts. I think it will be difficult for him to last to the next round.”

“Hey! What’s wrong with the Tenth Prince? His Luck decreased by half!”

“He is in the snowy region. If I recall right, no one has entered the ice inheritance there. It is one of the most intact inheritances of the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb. What happened there?”

“The ice inheritance is gone!”

When the light screen showed the Tenth Prince, Xiao Chen had left already. No one had noticed Xiao Chen.

Everyone saw only a dispirited Tenth Prince with a pale complexion and the crumbled ancient palace behind him.

“This…what a fellow! Who exactly managed to benefit? Although this ice inheritance was just a Medial Grade inheritance, it was perfectly intact. It might be even more valuable than a Superior Grade inheritance.”

Although a Superior Grade inheritance was of a very high grade, it would be hard to guarantee that no one had ever conquered that inheritance in previous succession races.

It would be hard to say how much things were left there.

Given this, the higher value of a complete inheritance was clear.

At a snow mountain’s summit in the vast snowy region:

Xiao Chen stood on the summit, facing the wind and snow as he looked at the vibrant rose in his hand.

Within the ice inheritance, he had been given a choice between two: a treasure or the Ice Great Dao.

Without a doubt, Xiao Chen chose the latter.

“I’ll bring out the Dragon Essence in it first.”

Every treasure in the inheritances contained Dragon Essence. Furthermore, there would be more than what a ferocious beast contained.

When the jade strip absorbed the Dragon Essence from the vibrant red rose, Xiao Chen sensed that the Dragon Essence in his jade strip had increased significantly.

The Dragon Essence in the rose was even more than what the Tenth Prince transferred to him.

The Dragon Essence appeared like a crystalline immortal spring in the jade strip. In the next moment, the dragon image being nourished inside took form and charged out.

Then, the Dragon Essence moved about the surroundings of the jade strip.

Holding the jade strip in his hand, Xiao Chen immediately felt the spatial pressure of the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb vanish entirely.

“Unexpectedly, I managed to collect a dragon image so quickly.

Xiao Chen revealed joy on his face, pleasantly surprised at collecting this much Dragon Essence so quickly.

As far as Xiao Chen knew, it should be rather difficult to manifest a dragon image.

A dragon image would appear only after one accumulated a certain amount of Dragon Essence. The more dragon images around the jade strip, the more Luck one had.

“It is time to absorb the Ice Great Dao in there,” Xiao Chen muttered to himself as he put away the jade strip.

Compared to Dragon Essence, Xiao Chen felt more anticipation for the Ice Great Dao represented by the vibrant scarlet rose.

Right now, his Ice Great Dao had already reached the second layer. He wanted to see how much it would improve after he absorbed this rose.

Of course, this relied heavily on the white-clad Yan Emperor’s understanding of the Ice Great Dao.

Xiao Chen tightly grasped the rose, letting the thorns pierce his palm and tap his blood. When nourished by blood, the vibrant scarlet rose gave off a strange light in this vast snowy region.

“Boom!”

The rose suddenly scattered, its vibrant petals filling the air and drifting with the snow.

If the wind does not clear up, would it be a rain of rose petals or mountains and rivers covered in blood?

Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes. He slowly spread out his Ice Dao Domain, the drifting snow and rose petals turning into motes of light that entered his body.

While Xiao Chen refined the ice inheritance, the other princes’ guests did not remain idle.

At a place with undulating sand dunes and sand storms, the mysterious, evil-eyed man that parted from the First Prince wandered the desert.

This person wore a half-faced mask, and his strange left eye shone with a dull, blue light. This deterred others from looking directly at it. It felt like if one looked at it for too long, it would suck in one’s soul.

Many ferocious beasts lived in the desert. Occasionally, the evil-eyed man would see guests who could not find inheritances fighting ferocious beasts.

Just at this moment, two people appeared from behind. One of them shouted, “Stand still and hand over all the Dragon Essence you collected.”

There were all sorts of people among the many princes’ guests. When they came to the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb, they also exposed some of their bad habits.

When the black-clad, evil-eyed man heard that, he remained expressionless. Then, he turned around silently and looked at the two.

A scarlet cross deep in the evil-eyed man’s left eye flickered with a weak light. The two 3-Vein Sovereign Emperors trying to rob him immediately felt a chill.

Horror appeared in the two’s hearts for some reason.

“Thump! Thump!”

The heart of the short-haired man on the right pounded faster and faster until it felt like it was out of control. He felt his throat close off, and his breathing became rushed. He could not speak at all, his eyes opening wide.

Suddenly, blood leaked out of that person’s seven facial orifices without any warning. Then, his heart leaped out of his chest, that person dying on the spot. That person’s eyes remained wide open in endless horror like he suffered from boundless torture.

“Ah!”

The remaining 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor let out a startled cry in fright, trembling as he looked at this black-clad, evil-eyed man. Such a scene surpassed his understanding.

“Boom!”

Driven by desperation, this person’s aura greatly soared, trying to drive all the Divine Energy he had. Then, he ruthlessly threw a palm strike containing his Divine Energy, Soul Energy, and Dao Domain in the form of a fiercely burning eagle claw.

This claw tore through the sky, covering the sky in blazing flames.

Even a 4-Vein Sovereign Emperor would have to treat this attack with caution, unable to afford carelessness.

This was the peak strike of this person while in sheer terror. He wanted to use this to buy himself time to flee.

“Whoosh!”

The scarlet cross in the depths of the evil-eyed man’s left eye started spinning quickly. In the next moment, something strange happened.

As flames blazed in the entire sky, the evil-eyed man’s left eye swallowed up the eagle claw that looked like it could break a small world.

The eagle claw silently ceased to exist.

That 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor was utterly stunned, even forgetting to run. When he startled awake, he let out a shrill cry as he made a mad dash. However, he only just turned when a strong suction pulled his body back.

No matter how hard that 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor struggled, he could not resist. He could only flail about weakly in the air before the wild berserk force pulled him into the evil-eyed man’s left eye.

“Crunch! Crunch!”

It seemed like a powerful ferocious beast existed in the left eye. After it swallowed this person, crunching sounds rang out.

The surroundings turned eerily silent. Anyone who heard the crunching sounds would feel fearful for some reason.

Two 3-Vein Sovereign Emperors died silently to the evil-eyed man’s “eye.”

One frightened to death; the other consumed alive.

However, all this seemed like nothing to the evil-eyed man. His eyes did not change at all. He just turned around and continued walking in the desert towards the sunset.

After a while, the evil-eyed man finally met the person he wanted to meet, Yan Cangming, under the light of the huge setting sun.

Zhen Yuan, who hugged a saber, stood by Yan Cangming’s side with half-closed eyes.

Zhen Yuan did not look at the evil-eyed man, not even sparing him a glance.

When the evil-eyed man saw Yan Cangming, his expression finally changed. He revealed a faint smile and said softly, “Brother Yan, we meet again.”

“Lord Xi.” Yan Cangming performed a cupped-fist salute and bowed slightly, showing his respect to this person.

“Brother Yan is still as polite as before. You are good with etiquette and know when to advance and retreat. So, have you considered what I said to you before this?” the evil-eyed man asked indifferently without care.

Yan Cangming replied, “I’m afraid that I will have to disappoint Lord Xi. I will not hand over the Ethereal Immortal Palace key in my hand to anyone. However, I hold boundless respect for Lord Xi; all the more I don’t dare make you my enemy.”

“Boom!”

The evil-eyed man’s gaze sank, and his eyelids closed slightly as well. It felt like the sky pressed down heavily under this gaze.

The huge setting sun above seemed to turn insignificant.

Zhen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly. A bright gleam flashed in his half-closed eyes.

Zhen Yuan’s right hand unconsciously grasped his saber’s handle.

Dense, black lines appeared on Yan Cangming. They looked like somewhat sinister dragon scales. Black death Qi rose from his body, wriggling like it was alive.

However, Yan Cangming’s expression did not change. His eyes did not contain any enmity, either.

Suddenly, all the pressure disappeared.

The evil-eyed man showed a slight smile. This smile made the demonic clouds around, which formed earlier, scatter, allowing the light of the setting sun to brighten the desert.

“Brother Yan, I have always seen you as a friend. How could you say such things? Even if you had enmity for me, you are still my friend. It is normal for misunderstandings to happen between friends.”

The evil-eyed man felt slightly stunned. Then, his gaze suddenly shifted to the sky. “However, this friend, by hiding like that, you probably do not think the same way.”

“Hey, where are you looking? I’m behind you.”

The evil-eyed man’s expression flickered. He turned around and saw a person who seemed to have leaped out of the setting sun.

The person that appeared out of nowhere had an indistinct smile on his face, showing a calm expression. He carried a sword on his back.
