Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 781: Chapter 780: First in Both Challenges! (2 updates!)

Because the Nine Great Super Sects’ Floating Stones were hit, their speed drastically reduced, resulting in the Phoenix Sect reaching a parallel position with them in merely a few seconds.

Moreover, since the Phoenix Sect’s Floating Stone was inherently fast, it could be said that the Nine Great Super Sects watched, helpless, as the Phoenix Sect passed them by and snatched the first place position.

Among them, powers like the Sword Immortal Tomb and Giant Island wanted to take action against the Phoenix Sect, but the exit was just in sight. To act now would undoubtedly be a waste of time, only benefiting sects like One Slash Palace for nothing.

Naturally, they would not do such a thing.

So, despite feeling extremely angry that the Phoenix Sect had grabbed the first-place position, they could only helplessly accept this outcome. What they had to do was try their best to snatch the second or at least the third place.

The first three places were incomparably different from the top ten.

Under this absurd tacit agreement, not a single Super Sect took action against the Phoenix Sect, even though they had been bombarded by the Phoenix Sect, they could only grit their teeth and bear it.

”Boom!”

Jin Guang spread, tracing a path that got further and further away from the sight of the Nine Great Super Sects.

”You bastard!”

Nangong Yu suddenly shouted, ”You think you can just leave like this? I, Nangong Yu, will not suffer a loss for nothing!”

As these words fell, the others were stunned.

What did Nangong Yu mean? The Phoenix Sect had not easily gained the first place only to hang around here waiting for them to overtake, had it?

And in the next moment, they understood Nangong Yu’s meaning.

”Fire the cannons!”

As an explosive shout came from the front, four massive booms resounded consecutively, with towering Light Pillars once again surging forth, drawing a beautiful arc across the Void, heading straight for the back.

These were four Light Pillars, and the targets of these four Light Pillars... were Giant Island, Sword Immortal Tomb, Immortal Dao Court, and Sect of the Battle God!

”Damn it!!!”

Seeing this scene, these four Super Sects were nearly driven mad. They had not anticipated that after giving way to the first position and not besieging the Phoenix Sect, the Phoenix Sect would actually act so ruthlessly against them!!!

”Su Baliu, may you die a terrible death!”

”I swear, If I don’t kill you in this life, I will not call myself human!”

”Su Han, Su Baliu, I curse your ancestors for eighteen generations, you motherfucking bitch!!”

At this moment, they spoke whatever foul language they could muster.

And that was all they could do—mere verbal insults.

In response, Su Han acted as if he hadn’t heard, turning back to look at Nangong Yu and smiling slightly, ”Now you’re not at a loss, right?”

”Hmph, this is somewhat better,” Nangong Yu retorted haughtily.

One Slash Palace was already in a leading position. Even if overtaken by the Phoenix Sect, they would at least be second.

The attack Su Han launched now was just icing on the cake.

”I’ll buy some of your Demon Crystal Cannons!” Nangong Yu called out.

After a moment’s thought, Su Han said, ”Two hundred billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones each.”

”Agreeable. I didn’t bring that many Spirit Stones. After the second barrier, I’ll have someone deliver them to you,” Nangong Yu agreed directly.

”Alright, I’ll give you three.”

Without a second word, Su Han waved his hand, and three Demon Crystal Stones immediately flew into the void, heading straight for One Slash Palace.

One Slash Palace rapidly advanced, catching the three Demon Crystal Cannons, then turned to look around and threatened, ”Who dares to compete with me for second place?”

With hands on hips and brows grimly furrowed, she looked every bit the spitfire.

At this, Su Han simply shook his head and chuckled.

In fact, only a Mage could operate the Demon Crystal Cannon, so even if Nangong Yu bought it, it wouldn’t be of much use to him.

Of course, if the price was right, Su Han wouldn’t mind training a few Mages for One Slash Palace.

Because of the presence of the Demon Crystal Cannon, the other Super Sects, such as the Holy Spirit Palace and the Demon Domain which was closest to them, all twitched their faces fiercely.

They indeed had other means, but clearly, those means couldn’t compare with the Demon Crystal Cannon. Seeing Nangong Yu purchasing the Demon Crystal Cannon, they immediately acted more subdued.

”Su Han.”

Just then, a charming voice came from the direction of the Sect of Peace.

Stopping in his tracks, Su Han turned to look, only to see that the speaker was none other than the Princess of Peace, Yin Luoxuan.

”Might I purchase a few of those Demon Crystal Cannons?” Yin Luoxuan pursed her lips and asked.

After a brief contemplation, Su Han finally uttered a few words, ”Sorry, I don’t have many left.”

Yin Luoxuan was taken aback, then chose not to speak further.

...

Everyone in the Central Domain was waiting.

In the Void, there was a vortex which served as the exit of the second stage—the entrance was from the cracks beside, and the exit led out through this vortex.

”Boom!”

At a certain moment, a tremendous noise burst forth. A Floating Stone of Ten Thousand Feet appeared at the location of the vortex, and figures leaped down from it—it was Phoenix Sect!

”As expected...”

”Sigh, Phoenix Sect indeed has some tricks up their sleeves. They were ranked beyond a hundred originally, yet they managed to get the first place.”

”This Su Baliu truly has a deep understanding of human nature, realizing that the Nine Great Sects wouldn’t waste time to besiege them. I seriously doubt if he is really under thirty years old.”

”First place in both the first and second challenges. Even if they don’t rank in the third, they will probably at least get a Third Level pass, won’t they?”

”It has to be more than a Third Level, at least a First Level pass. And if Phoenix Sect can secure first place in the third challenge as well... then, they might just get the most powerful pass like One Slash Palace did seven thousand years ago!”

”The most powerful pass? That’s wishful thinking. Throughout history, only One Slash Palace has ever obtained it, right? Moreover, the third challenge is the arena battle, which is about showing one’s true strength. The Demon Crystal Cannon cannot be used there. With Phoenix Sect’s overall strength, I find it unlikely.”

Seeing the people from Phoenix Sect emerge, a series of gasps and exclamations spread through the crowd.

Short on their heels was One Slash Palace.

Su Han glanced back at Nangong Yu, said nothing, and immediately turned to leave with the members of Phoenix Sect.

”You stinking Su Han, you big jerk, stop right there!” Nangong Yu’s voice came from behind.

Su Han’s body jolted but he did not slow down, instead, he quickened his pace.

”You dare deceive me!!!” Nangong Yu’s voice sounded furiously angry.

The expressions of the two caused those around to show looks of astonishment.

Why did this seem like... bantering with a touch of flirtation?

”I didn’t deceive you, you didn’t ask me either. Anyway, I’ve already sold you the Demon Crystal Cannon, how you use it is your problem.”

With those words, Su Han quickly left with the people from Phoenix Sect, leaving Nangong Yu stamping her little foot furiously in the Void.
