Chapter 431
431 Unexpected
“Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!”
A crisp sound reverberated in the hall. It was a magic sword that the red-robed man carried with him.
Other than a few pills and a magic longsword, nothing else was left on the red-robed man’s body after he was turned into ashes by Xia Pingan.
The few pills that had landed among the red-robed man’s ashes looked a little disgusting. No one was interested in picking them up. It would be too degrading.
When the five of them attacked just now, the bystanders were all watching, and none of them helped the red-robed man.
This kind of thing didn’t seem to be new in the divine Palace.
Until now, before he had obtained the first key, the team that old monster Tian Hua had sent to the fallen God land had been completely annihilated. None of them had survived.
Pooh, trash! a Summoner on True Monarch Wu Chen’s side spat at the pile of ashes as if he had vented his anger. Then, he cupped his hands at Xia ping ‘an and qu Yitong before returning to their respective resting places.
Xia Pingan and qu Yitong also retreated.
This move had left a good impression on Xia ping ‘an. This qu Yitong had dared to attack the red-robed man. He was indeed quite responsible.
“Many thanks, senior brother qu!” As soon as they returned, Xia Pingan cupped his fists at qu Yitong and said, ” this is my personal matter. I wanted to deal with it myself, but I didn’t expect senior brother qu to take action!
Junior Brother long, you’re welcome. Elder li has told me that you’re a member of our Wan Shen sect. You’re a talent that our Wan Shen sect is in urgent need of. Elder li asked me to take care of your safety. Since the people of old monster Tianhua dared to attack Junior Brother long, it means that they’re attacking our Wan Shen sect. It’s no big deal to kill you here! Qu Yitong said indifferently.
……
It was abnormally silent in the hall. Everyone was recovering their strength as if nothing had happened even though someone had just died here.
After another half an hour, with a flash at the gate of the palace, a person drilled in.
Junior Sister Gu, hehe! Qi Yu flashed towards Gu Yuqing as he pulled her hand and finally let out a sigh of relief.
Everyone was very happy to see another member of Wan Shen sect.
Gu Yuqing didn’t show any signs of an intense battle. No one knew how she passed the previous checkpoints. After entering the hall, she glanced at everyone’s faces and came to Xia Pingan. She bowed to Xia Pingan and said in embarrassment, ” thank you for your help, Junior Brother long!
“Senior Sister apprentice Gu, you’re too polite!”
Gu Yuqing was not a lively person who was good with words. Hearing Xia Pingan’s words, she just looked at Xia Pingan gratefully and did not say anything.
The group of people waited there.
……
After over 2 hours, the ground in the entire Palace suddenly quivered slightly. Closely after that, a wall in the front of the palace slowly rose up from the ground, revealing the other half of the palace.
he’s out, Yingying! someone shouted.
everyone, get ready to go! qu Yitong reminded the crowd. Everyone immediately perked up and rushed to the wall that was rising. They held their breaths and watched as the wall slowly rose.
Behind the rising wall was a thick, completely transparent crystal wall. Behind the wall was the other half of the palace. Through this thick crystal wall, Zhang tie could see the scene on the other side–armored puppet guards with huge swords and shields were standing solemnly in two rows on the opposite. Behind those puppet guards, there was a long Emerald table at the end of the palace, on which were snake-shaped golden keys.
At the sight of those keys on the table, everyone’s eyes flickered.
Xia Pingan touched the crystal wall in front of him, which was a few feet thick, and secretly pushed it with force. The crystal wall did not move at all, just like a mountain.
On the crystal wall in front of him, there was a fist-sized hole every few meters that led to the other side. No one could pass through such a hole, not even an ordinary summoned creature.
Qu Yitong directly slashed the crystal wall with his soul weapon longsword, causing sparks to fly in all directions. Qu Yitong was forced to take a step back by the counterforce of the longsword. However, there was not even a scratch on the crystal wall.
as expected, this wall can’t be broken through by force. It seems that I can only summon assassins into the corner. qu Yitong shook his head and put away the long sword in his hand.
While qu Yitong was speaking, Hua Yan from the Black Dragon sect and her Junior Sister Qin had already summoned two assassins.
The moment the two assassins were summoned, they had turned into black smoke and drilled into the fist-sized sinkhole on the crystal wall like snakes. Closely after that, they came out of the sinkhole and reappeared as assassins before darting towards the long Emerald table at the end of the palace as fast as lightning bolts.
The moment the two assassins entered the crystal wall, those puppet guards immediately moved. Some puppet guards rushed towards the two assassins while their huge shields gave out golden light.
hurry up! Everyone, summon the assassins to go in. We’ll have to destroy those guard puppets in one go to get the key! True Monarch Wu Chen’s people shouted. Seven assassins immediately turned into black smoke and entered the hole in the wall, fighting with the guard puppets.
The people from Wan Shen sect also summoned an assassin.
The assassin that Xia Pingan had summoned looked exactly the same as the dragon-slaying assassins that others had summoned. There was nothing unusual about it, so after it was summoned, it was not conspicuous at all and did not attract any attention.
As an assassin, once he became eye-catching, it meant that he had already failed when he appeared.
The battle on the other side of the crystal wall was extremely intense. As the assassins entered one by one, all of the puppet guards began to move, forming a line of defense. Swords, shields, and all sorts of spell techniques intertwined to intercept the assassins who entered the wall.
On the other side of the wall, the summoners who had summoned the assassins could only watch helplessly as their assassins performed.
For assassins of the same level, due to the difference in Summoners, the Assassin’s abilities, intelligence, and talent would be completely different. It was just like how Summoners of the same level were not exactly the same.
Very quickly, the assassins who entered were killed by the puppet guards, turning into light and dissipating.
It seemed that the puppet guards were born to counter the assassins ‘abilities. The armor on their bodies was like a tank’s armor, covering all the weaknesses of the puppet guards. The weapons and spells of the summoned assassins could not harm the puppet guards at all.
Seeing that the assassin he had summoned had been killed, the summoner immediately summoned a second assassin into the dungeon. He would not stop until he achieved his goal.
In the midst of the chaos, the assassin that Xia Pingan had summoned quietly released a large-scale smoke spell. The hall opposite them was suddenly filled with thick smoke, blocking everyone’s vision.
who is it? whose assassin is releasing the smoke spell? ” a Summoner on the side of True Monarch Wu Chen shouted.
The situation inside was too chaotic. There were roars of spells and exciting fights everywhere. The assassins and puppet guards were fighting each other, and people were moving like lightning. In this situation, no one could tell who had summoned the assassin and cast the smoke spell.
Xia Pingan did not expect the assassin he had summoned to release a smoke spell. This was not his order. He only felt that his assassin had released a smoke spell. This was entirely the spontaneous action of the assassin he had summoned to complete the mission.
In the thick smoke, the assassin summoned by Xia Pingan suddenly sped up more than twice as fast. The Assassin’s figure flashed past two shields and three huge swords like a ghost. He was the first to rush to the long Emerald table at the end of the hall. He grabbed a key, and his figure disappeared into smoke again with a bang.
A puppet opened its mouth and took a deep breath, sucking in all the smoke in the opposite Palace at once. As a result, they could see clearly again.
In just a few breaths, the summoner on this side had already discovered that two of the snake-shaped keys on the long Jade table opposite them were missing.
Everyone was shocked. They had no idea who the assassin was that had snatched the two keys.
In the next second, on the other side of the crystal wall, the assassin that Xia Pingan had summoned appeared with a bang. He once again turned into black smoke and slithered out of the winding passage like a snake. As soon as the assassin came out, he handed the key to Xia Pingan.
A Golden Door instantly appeared in the hall.
The people around them were dumbfounded. They did not expect Xia Pingan’s assassin to be the first to obtain the key.
senior brothers, I’ll go over first. Xia Pingan did not stand on ceremony. As soon as he got the key, he informed qu Yitong and flew towards the door.
Only one second later than Xia ping ‘an, the assassin that Hua Yan had summoned also obtained a key. He immediately broke through the encirclement of the puppet guards and made his way through the crystal wall. He handed the key to Hua Yan, and the second Golden Door appeared.
Xia ping ‘an and Hua Yan did not hesitate. After getting the keys, the two of them looked at each other from a distance, then pushed open the Golden Door and entered.
……
The moment he stepped through the door, Xia ping ‘an was ready to attack with all his might.
However, the next second, Xia Pingan was stunned.
What appeared in front of him was a similarly magnificent and huge Palace. In the palace, there were more than a dozen huge, pale snake bones with wings lying there. They were already lifeless.
The most important thing was that on one of the walls of the palace, there was a passage written in words that everyone could understand.
[ hahaha, I’ve taken all the fragments of the divine artifact here. Don’t think about it anymore. Let the little kids come in and take the divine artifact. You old guys want to eat sh * t? ]
Xia Pingan’s expression suddenly became strange.
Hua Yan’s figure appeared right after them. When he saw the bones of the giant snakes and the words on the palace walls, he was stunned.
After a while, a person from perfected Lord Wu Chen’s side, qu Yitong, Meng Ziqi, and the others entered this place one after another. Looking at the snake bones and the words left on the palace walls, everyone looked at each other and was dumbfounded.
Such a place could actually be taken by someone else?
F * ck, more importantly, the person who left this message was a little too mean.
pfft, pfft, pfft. Xia Pingan couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of True Monarch Minghe’s appearance. When he saw that everyone was looking at him, Xia Pingan stopped smiling and pretended to be serious. cough, cough. I just feel that the guy who left this message, Qianqian, is too hateful, Qianqian.
