Chapter 566 - Fight for Ancient Scripture

Chapter 566 - Fight for Ancient Scripture

The intensity of the battle far surpassed the crowd’s imagination.

Many ghost soldiers, skeleton jiangshi, and human martial artists met their end and died gruesome deaths.

“Heck, this place is a cemetery! Who the hell said there were treasures here?!” cursed a martial artist, frustrated and bitter.

Everyone was on edge right now.

Initially, they saw each other as competitors for the treasures, but now, breaking through the great hall’s entrance was the primary concern.

They started with three to four hundred people; after fighting for a while, half of them had died tragically at the hands of the ghost soldiers and skeleton jiangshi.

This great hall had become a meat grinder that minced geniuses to death.

The geniuses on the Hidden Dragon Island had been selected carefully through a rigorous procedure. They were the best of their generation.

However, they were now dying like ants. It was a horrible sight.

And they couldn’t even retreat, as they had paid a huge price to get this close to the great hall’s entrance. They could only march forward, kill all these skeleton jiangshi, and obtain the treasures inside. That was the only way to make their sacrifices worthwhile.

Rumble!

A loud noise rang out. The combined forces of Li Yao’s party of five sent the incomparably ferocious Flying Hairy Jiangshi flying, knocking down the doors.

The Flying Hairy Jiangshi was a nine-revolution Golden Core invincible expert, but it still couldn’t withstand the combined might of these elite geniuses. Each of them possessed numerous ultimate techniques. Together, they were a terrifying force.

“Good!”

The crowd was encouraged when they saw the sorry state of the Flying Hairy Jiangshi. They gathered their strength again and pushed back the skeleton jiangshi, breaking their formation.

“Kill!”

“The treasures are inside. Kill all these skeleton jiangshi and it will be ours!”

“What did we come to the Hidden Dragon Island for? For treasures, for opportunities, for strength! Everyone, step on it!” shouted someone, encouraging the crowd.

Chen Fan shook his head within the crowd.

People like them shouted to motivate others while hiding among the crowd. They made the others charge and break through the enemy lines.

Finally, the crowd’s combined efforts forced the skeleton jiangshi to retreat.

“You dare!”

“In your dream!”

Li Yao, Gongsun Zhong, Qiu Yuexin, and the others also simultaneously came back to their senses and made their move. They sent out various attacks at Li Yao.

Nobody cared about his identity now. Anyone standing in their way of obtaining treasure was an enemy. They had no qualms about attacking the Great Li Imperial Court’s prince now.

“You’re all looking to die!” Li Yao instantly grew enraged. His aura surged, shocking heaven and earth. He turned around fiercely and struck out with both fists. Several punches blasted out with powerful momentum, their fierce might shook all the celestial bodies.

He dealt with all the attacks and tried to grab the ancient scripture again.

Just when the ancient scripture was about to fall into Li Yao’s hands, a rumbling noise rang out. A hill-sized dharma seal descended, rumbling. It crushed the air as it tried to suppress and kill Li Yao.

It was Xuanyuan Po’s Mountain Suppressing Seal.

Rumble!

Li Yao instantly withdrew, dodging this attack. The Mountain Suppressing Seal struck the ground violently, creating a huge crater on the floor.

Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Po tried to take the ancient scripture after forcing Li Yao back.

However...

“The ancient scripture belongs to whoever is capable! Slash!” A heaven-shocking sword light tore through space and slashed toward Xuanyuan Po like a bolt of lightning. It was like a heaven-splitting sword, capable of destroying everything, ashes to ashes and dust to dust.

Gongsun Zhong had also struck, going all out.

“Damn it!” Xuanyuan Po’s expression darkened. He hurriedly channeled the Mountain Suppressing Seal to block in front of him.

“Hmph, this ancient scripture is our Battle Heaven Alliance’s!” Yun Tao’s figure blurred as he unleashed incredible powers that swept through everything.

“Bastards, do you all want to take our Battle Heaven Alliance as your enemy?” Nie Tao sent some martial artists trying to get close flying. Then, his right hand grabbed at the air, turning into a towering hand that swept out at the remaining people.

“Immortal Slaying Chakram!” Qiu Yuexin was also no weak woman.

A clear and cold chakram appeared at the back of her head. She looked incomparably beautiful but was full of icy killing intent.

Boom tch!

The chakram quickly slashed at Nie Tao’s true primeval hand, blowing it up.
