Chapter 137: Temptation

Kritos <Greater Inspection skill> was useless on these objects. He couldn't fetch any information from his skill. The level between him and the treasures is huge.

Not only Kritos, those who were already present all felt the temptation when they stared at the objects floating above the tombs. They all felt a rush of impulse, wanting nothing more than to grab those mystic arts and weapons away. Despite their strong wills, it was exceedingly hard to rid themselves of the temptation.

Bzzz!

Finally, in this graveyard, a terrifying whistling sound echoed through the air. In a certain direction, a beam of light broke the dome of the heavens, grabbing the attention of all who ventured here. Kipo's countenance grew incredibly unsightly as killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"Yong, YOU ARE COURTING DEATH!" Kipo roared in rage. "Everyone return here and gather by my side immediately!"

Several figures flashed, returning to the side of Kipo. Kritos returned as well, his gaze now fixed onto Yong. It is better if he only watches for time being before he could his situation.

Yong was a Peak genius of the White Earth Sect. He had discovered an extremely terrifying mystic weapon that contained an overwhelming amount of earth-elemental energy floating atop a tomb. Yong naturally wanted to seize the item for his own. However, the instant he touched it, the earth beneath broke apart, and over there, a figure could suddenly be seen standing there.

This man had a sharp-looking countenance and his yellow hair were dancing wildly in the wind. He was clad in a brown-colored long robe and his eyes were staring straight at Yong. The depthless eyes of his caused the souls of everyone present to shiver.

"Who are you?" The face of the yellow-haired man was wan and swallow, yet he exuded a boundless sharpness. His eyes were locked on to Yong, causing Yong's entire body to involuntarily tremble from fear and terror.

"Are you the one who buried me in here? And now you wanted to Steal my treasure? Never!" His voice seemed to come from ages long past, and as he stepped out, Yong felt an incomparably heavy pressure boring down on him.

His countenance pales as he repeatedly shooking his head, "I'm not the one."

"You bury my soul. Now, You wanted to steal my treasure You should die, DIE and Die!!" The yellow-hair figure took another step forwards, as Yong retreated with explosive speed. However, that figure merely stretched his palms out and grabbed the air. With an explosive sound, the earth on the ground flew up, forming a sand storm around Yong instantly, restricting his movements and pressing down on him with enough force to bury him.

"YOU SHOULD DIE!" A fearsome killing intent flashed in the eyes of that man. Strands of his yellow hair transformed into a countless sharp sand sword that exploded outwards.

"NOOOO~ SAVE ME!" Yong's countenance flashed with despair. After which, a sharp sand sword penetrated through Yong's head, pinning him onto the ground.

At this moment, Kipo and the others all arrived somewhere near that yellow-haired figure. Their footsteps abruptly stopped, only to see the yellow-haired figure pulling out the sand sword, which turned back into a strand of his yellow formless sand. That sand glistened with blood, shining in an extremely blinding manner, yet also exuding a sense of incredible power.

"How powerful." The expressions of Amber and the rest were all incredibly grim. The aura exuded from this man was merely at the peak of Foundation Realm, similar to all the peak geniuses. Yong wasn't an ordinary person, his combat prowess could be considered very strong as well. However, in front of this yellow-haired figure, he didn't even have the strength to resist.

The eyes of the person shifted onto Amber and the rest. His eyes glimmered with yellow light and just a single gaze caused everyone to perspire profusely as their souls quavered in terror.

"Are all of you the ones who buried my soul, and want to steal my treasure?" That figure stared wildly at Amber and the rest. After which, he mumbled to himself as he stared at the sky, "And as for me, who am I?" 

"Prepare to join hands, use all our strength to kill him," Kipo spoke in a low voice. Everyone started to blast out their auras causing this entire space to tremble.

"Who am I?" That person seemed not to be aware that Kipo and the rest were already preparing to attack him. He was still staring at the sky when Kipo issued the order to surround him.

"Bring him under our control first. Act NOW!" Kipo roared. As the sound of his voice faded, there were ancient vines, iron chains, the power of water all acting in accord, erupting forth at the same moment, trying to lock that yellow-haired figure down.

BOOM!

The figure retracted his gaze, shifting it onto Siko. The island trembled violently as it suddenly rose up, forming a protective dome enveloping the figure within. At the same time, the attacks of Kipo and the rest arrived, furiously slamming onto that earthen dome, trying to break it apart.

The dome broke apart, the yellow-haired figure appeared once more. However, the restrictions binding him had all already been struggled free of.

BOOM!

The figure slowly stepped out. Just this single step caused a random opponent to be swallowed up by the sand. He lifted his palms and slammed them forward. That casual palm strike shattered the sand, alongside with the poor victim trapped within it earlier.

At the same time, the experts under Kipo unleashed another bout of attacks. 

On the other hand, Amber's hair fluttered wildly in the wind as he punched out. 

Brilliant fist light flashed, even the void was trembling as the force of his punch lashed out. However, that yellow-haired figure merely lifted his hands. A golden screen of light manifested before him as the attack landed. Rumbling sounds echoed out as cracks spread like spiderwebs across the golden screen of light. However, Amber's attack wasn't powerful enough to shatter the defense mounted by the yellow-haired figure.

"What is this? This is simply too powerful."
