Chapter 740 - Taking the Entire Gold Palace
Chapter 740: Taking the Entire Gold Palace
The other three all nodded and agreed to Ye Mo’s plan.
With Ye Mo and Yao Yue’s current strength, they had no opponents in the tenth division.
Ye Mo hadn’t planned on stealing more Demonic Crystals, or killing more beasts. He wanted to quietly cultivate for a few days.
Over the last 10 days of the competition, the relationship between Xiao Cao and Yao Yue slowly began to thaw.
But Ye Mo didn’t bother with those trifling things. The two women had been found, but Xiao Yue, who he was most concerned about, was still in danger.
The Saint Ancestor Bloodsaber had said he had a half a year to save Xiao Yue. A half a year before the day of the eclipse arrived. But that was a general period of time. He didn’t know how many days he had left.
Over the last ten days, Ye Mo gradually mastered the powers of the Profound World Realm. Now he wanted the second stage of the competition to begin. He wanted to see how strong the famous Castellans of the Zone of Chaos really were.
What kind of power did those five-and six-star Castellans have, let alone the seven-star Castellans?
But the key was to exchange for the Red Dragon Wings first so that, in the second stage of the competition, Ye Mo would have the strength to protect himself.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside their cave.
“The palaces are appearing!” Liu Xing said.
Ye Mo immediately woke up from his state of meditation and rushed out of the cave. From a void, three streams of light shot out. A bronze, silver and gold light shot out in different directions.
“Little Yao, I’ll leave Xiao Cao to you,” Ye Mo said hurriedly. “I’m going to go to the Gold Palace.”
Ye Mo flew into the sky and rushed in the direction of the gold light.
On a huge mountain in the tenth district, the Gold Palace fell from the sky and landed on the peak.
It was a flying palace and a high-grade Bejewelled Weapon. Inside were four resources that could be exchanged.
The Sky Shaking Thunder Hammer, the Water Changing Ice Sword, the Red Dragon Wings, and the White Fog Spirit Jade.
The four treasures would be considered rare and valuable in any of the zones. But, if someone wanted to exchange for them, they would have to have the strength to compete for them.
“Qingshan Green Water!”
A thin, handsome man had arrived in front of the Gold Palace first. Dozens of experts had arrived, hot on his heels.
The first man was Song Qingshan. He had made it to number three on the Thousand Cities List earlier with strength in the early Profound Heavens Realm. He had now advanced to the mid-Profound Heavens Realm.
This Song Qingshan was from the strongest part of the Lingwu Continent; the Zone of Lingwu, the holy land where experts came from. Song Qingshan was very talented. He was able to reach number three on the Demonic Crystals List with just cultivation in the early Profound Heavens Realm. That meant he had to be much more powerful than the average expert.
Moreover, there were more than a dozen experts following Song Qingshan closely. They were all well-known Castellans in the Zone of Chaos.
Ye Mo saw another man he recognized. The man’s head was covered with long red hair, and its roots stood up like flames. He was Fen Qiancheng, the brother of Fen Gongwuliang. He had strength in the mid Profound Heavens Realm and had inherited the complete Burning Flame Power. He was born with an extremely hot power in his meridians, which could burn everything for thousands of miles around.
But the more than a dozen experts who arrived with Song Qingshan weren’t his companions, but were the first ones to try to enter the Gold Palace.
Kill!
Song Qingshan laughed out loud. With a wave of the Long Sword in his hand, a blue light was emitted. He waved his arm as he rushed toward the several Castellans who had arrived with him. Those Castellans instantly split into two, as screams echoed off the mountains, overlapping each other in a cacophony of the dying.
Several Castellans rushed over. It seemed as if Song Qingshan didn’t plan on entering the Gold Palace, and instead was waiting for everyone to come rush to their death.
At that moment, Fen Qiancheng activated his attack and aimed toward Song Qingshan. That attack made it impossible for Song Qingshan to enter the Gold Palace with his companion for a short moment.
“Damn it! These people don’t care if they live or die!”
Song Qingshan and his companion together were indeed very strong. One was an expert from Zone of Lingwu, and the other was a two-star Castellan.
But it was difficult for them to enter the Gold Palace with so many people rushing forward to attack them.
“You useless bunch dare to fight against me and Song Qingshan. We’re taking the entire Gold Palace, so get out of here,” Song Qingshan’s companion shouted at the crowd as Song Qingshan himself exploded.
The Long Sword in his hand trembled. Streams of blue blade rays transformed into green Wills. It was very elegant and calm. But endless killing intent was contained within the calm.
“What? Song Qingshan? Is he the Song Qingshan, who won third place in the Thousand Cities List with strength in the early Profound Heavens Realm?”
“He’s actually advanced to the mid-Profound Heavens Realm since then. Maybe we should hang back, for now. Let other people lead the charge.”
“Damn it. I wanted that Water Changing Ice. You don’t run into a weapon like that every day.”
Watching Song Qingshan and his companion stand in front of the Gold Palace, a few Castellans secretly sighed.
But Fen Qiancheng was still unwilling to give in to him. He stood on the side and glared at Song Qingshan.
Although he had the strength to compete with Song Qingshan, it was very likely that both sides would lose after their battle. They might just weaken each other enough for another castellan to steal the palace from them both.
“Song Qingshan, my name is Fen Qiancheng. I’m also a famous Castellan. I need to exchange for the White Fog Spirit Jade. If you don’t need it, we can go in together.”
“Fen Qiancheng?” Song Qingshan said faintly. “I know who you are. You’re pretty strong. Unfortunately, I’ll be taking all the resources in the Gold Palace.”
“You want all of them?” Fen Qiancheng asked incredulously. “The four resources inside the palace add up to more than 15,000 Demonic Crystals. Do you really have that many? I’m going to take that White Fog Spirit Jade. If you’re going to be this unreasonable, then don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Ah! Fen Qiancheng, if you want to go in, you can,” Song Qingshan said with a smile. “I can see that you’re very strong. If you want to go in, then, during the second stage of the competition, you must join my League.”
“Your League?” Fen Qiancheng raised an eyebrow. “Do you have still more experts around you?”
“A five-star Castellan,” Song Qingshand responded.
“Haha!” Fen Qiancheng laughed. “I’d love to have a five-star Castellan.”
With a five-star Castellan as the leader in forming an Alliance, they could dominate the second stage of the competition. Anyone would like to be a part of such a League.
When a few Castellans saw the two men coming to an agreement, they decided to retreat.
“Let’s go take a look at the Silver Palace and the Bronze Palace. We won’t get close to the four treasures inside the Gold Palace.”
Boom!
But, right at that moment, a terrifying Spearlight bombardment hit with a heavy force.
Fen Qiancheng and Song Qingshan were both shocked. Spearlight with an irresistible authority had unexpectedly made the Gold Palace fly out. It landed somewhere far away from them. A black shadow then descended from the sky.
“I am taking the entire Gold Palace.”
