Who had such big courage and skill to s.n.a.t.c.h away the golden sarcophagus under so many eyes?
The people were greatly shocked. They even find it unbelievable. They wanted to believe that the restriction had pulled back the golden sarcophagus. But, looking at the remaining blaze spirits charging underground, they were certain that this was not the doing of the restriction, rather someone had used a secret technique to s.n.a.t.c.h it successfully!
Inside the Flame Mountain, there was boiling hot magma. Between the ground and the magma, there was just a less than 7 meters thick thin layer of earth. Ye Chuan moved through this thin layer of earth with the golden sarcophagus, while dodging the magma that erupted from time to time.
He had finally obtained the 18 DemonG.o.ds Banner that could crush Sages according to the legend.
Even Ye Chuan who had seen all kinds of treasures in his past life was also excited. After refining this treasure, his cultivation will definitely soar. He will be able to breakthrough to Rank 7 Daoist Master realm, or might even reach Half Sage realm at one go. At that time, he will no longer need to fear Qing Tianhou, State Teacher Jiang Tunsheng and so on super experts. He might even be able to trample them under his foot!
Ye Chuan who longed for strength and breakthrough got more and more excited. Unfortunately, he didn't have much time to be happy, great danger was following behind him. The temperature of this thin layer of earth suddenly rose rapidly.
The speed of blaze spirits that guarded the golden sarcophagus was alarming.
These blaze spirits that were fighting ferociously above the ground drilled into the ground and chased after him even more ferociously.
Ye Chuan quickly changed his direction, hoping to shake off these ferocious pursuers, but very quickly, he discovered that that was practically impossible.
The ferocious blaze spirits rushed towards him from all directions and their number was increasing. There was some that came from above ground and there were some that came from the magma below. After changing direction several times, Ye Chuan discovered that he was completely surrounded. He was unable to cover the distance he had thought before. But, if he didn't go up now, then he might get killed by these blaze spirit.
Ye Chuan roared and placed the golden sarcophagus on his shoulder, then rushed to breakout of the ground.
A hint of ice-cold blade light whistled in front of Ye Chuan practically at the same time when he broke out of the ground.
Qing Tianhou?
The heart of Ye Chuan shook. This blade light was dazzling. Instantly, he was unable to anything else other than this blade light. He didn't know where and who the enemy was, but, in this Great Monarch Grave, other than Qing Tianhou, who had such a fierce blade technique?
“You dare to take this Lord Hou's thing, courting death!”
Sure enough, a familiar cold voice resounded. It was none other than Qing Tianhou.
Ye Chuan suddenly swayed and dodged this blade light as if he was weightless despite carrying the heavy golden sarcophagus. But, the big bamboo hat on his head was damaged under this fierce attack.
At the critical moment of life and death, Ye Chuan circulated Heaven Swallowing Talismans within his body sparing no effort, but unlike the past, he was unable to completely dodge this blade of Qing Tianhou. His left shoulder was dripping with blood. His entire left arm was nearly chopped off.
Was this the Qingtian Blade Technique?
Ye Chuan was shocked in his heart and reexamined the fighting power of Qing Tianhou. But, he didn't know that, Qing Tianhou was also shocked. After the golden sarcophagus was s.n.a.t.c.hed, he had locked onto the aura of Ye Chuan and was chasing from above the ground, so the instant Ye Chuan appeared, he made a killing move. With his fighting power, furthermore, a surprise attack, he basically had thought that this single blade will kill Ye Chuan and then he would s.n.a.t.c.h the golden sarcophagus, but who would have thought that Ye Chuan was able to dodge it?
Since there was no death, this attack was a failure for Qing Tianhou!
Ye Chuan looked up while breathing heavily. He completely ignored his b.l.o.o.d.y wound.
Standing close to Qing Tianhou, he truly understood how terrifying this fellow was. And since his energy fluctuation was locked on by the strong power of Qing Tianhou, he basically was unable to shake him off no matter where he ran. Moreover, he couldn't even resist. After the dust in the sky settled down, the atmosphere became heavier and the pressure increased by ten times.
When powerful experts fought, they would have a contest of aura before making a move. This so-called aura was actually energy fluctuation or the pressure of cultivators. After breaking through to Rank 6 Daoist Master realm and condensing ten Heaven Swallowing Talismans, the energy fluctuation of Ye Chuan was amazing. Even average Rank 7 Daoist Master realm experts might not necessarily be his match, but compared to this peak Half Sage Qing Tianhou, there was a huge gap. He basically not his opponent!
“Eh, it's you!”
Qing Tianhou exclaimed and stopped the halberd he had already raised. Only at this moment, he was able to clearly see who had s.n.a.t.c.hed the golden sarcophagus under the eyes of everyone. He had never expected him to be this kid Ye Chuan.
The ground shook and many blaze spirits also broke out of the ground, surrounding these two people. In an instant, it appeared as if all the remaining blaze spirits of this Great Monarch Grave had rushed out, wanting to kill anyone that seized the golden sarcophagus!
It was already hard to deal with Qing Tianhou, now with the addition of so many blaze spirits, how can he break out of this encirclement?
The heart of Ye Chuan was getting heavier and heavier.
With his extraordinary calmness and patience, he had obtained this golden sarcophagus, but now, it was difficult to get away.
“Yes, it's me, Lord Hou, we meet again.”
After a brief period of tension, Ye Chuan calmed down and took a step forward. Even when facing this super expert Qing Tianhou, he was still undaunted and just pulled down the big bamboo hat a little. Firstly, it was to cover his face, and secondly, it was also to take advantage of this moment to size up the circ.u.mstances around.
Seeing Qing Tianhou with dense killing intent and numerous fierce blaze spirits, many loose cultivators and devils didn't dare to act rashly. Only State Teacher Jiang Tunsheng slowly approached and aimed the Emperor Bow. The pressure on Ye Chuan who was already in a bad situation increased. The bones within his body were already making creaking sounds.
He already wasn't able to deal with one super expert, now with the addition of another super expert, he was unable to endure!
Now, these two super experts who originally were trying to kill each other simultaneously locked onto the energy fluctuation of Ye Chuan, in addition, there were numerous ferocious blaze spirits glaring at him, and there were also many loose cultivators and devils eying him covetously. Ye Chuan had suddenly become the target of everyone. The golden sarcophagus on his shoulder had turned into a hot potato. But, also because he was the target of everyone, no one dared to act rashly and a strange scene appeared here.
A drop of sweat flowed down the face of Ye Chuan. His heart was getting heavier and heavier, but he had to think of a way to escape this circ.u.mstance.
