Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 2427: Chapter 2427: Power of Heaven and Earth

”However, I need to remind you of something first!”

Before Su Han could speak, the old Guardian went on, ”If you don’t reach ten thousand zhang, then even as the Guardian here, I can’t give you the ten-thousand-zhang fortune. And if you rely on the power of the Supreme Crown and charge all the way to ten thousand zhang, you’ll end up destroying this place. At that time, don’t talk about the ten-thousand-zhang fortune— even the previous five-thousand and eight-thousand-zhang fortunes, you won’t get any of them.”

”So in other words, no matter what, I can’t get that ten-thousand-zhang fortune anymore?” Su Han shook his head with a bitter smile.

”And you’re already acting all helpless?”

The old man snorted coldly. ”The Three Imperial Beings did indeed set the rule that no matter what item, no matter what method, it can all be used on this bridge. After all, no matter what item it is, it’s ultimately built on one’s Cultivation Base. In this Lower-Class Star Region, even if someone possesses something on the level of the Sun God Bow, if their Cultivation Base is too low and they can’t draw out its full power, what good does it do?”

”But who would’ve thought you’d actually obtain the Supreme Crown!!!”

Speaking up to here, the old man’s voice was practically a roar. ”Only a supreme existence like the Supreme Crown can unleash passive power regardless of the user’s Cultivation Base. And that power is terrifying to the extreme— enough to destroy the entire Three Emperor Mountain!”

”Alright then, after saying so much, the gist is that you’re just trying not to give me the fortune at the ten-thousand-zhang mark, right?”

Su Han waved his hand, cutting off the old man’s words. ”Honestly, this trip into Three Emperor Mountain, thanks to that ’back door’ you opened, both I, Su Han, and the whole Phoenix Sect have already reaped immense gains.”

”I am not a greedy man. That ten-thousand-zhang fortune—if I can’t get it, then so be it. You don’t need to overthink it. I won’t repay kindness with enmity and destroy this Three Emperor Mountain.”

”Then what exactly is the deal you want to make?” the old man asked, a little anxious.

”I don’t want the ten-thousand-zhang fortune. But in the future, whenever people from the Phoenix Sect come here, no matter when, no matter their Cultivation Base, you must open the entrance to Three Emperor Mountain for them. Moreover, just like this time, you have to give them at least some benefits so they don’t come for nothing.”

Su Han finally spoke out his true objective.

After settling the Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects, it probably won’t be long before he heads to a Middle-Class Star Region.

He has to lay the best possible foundation for the Phoenix Sect.

And when the old man heard this, he nearly blew his top.

”What did you say?!”

”Opening Three Emperor Mountain unconditionally? No restriction on time? No restriction on Cultivation Base? And you want me to give them benefits every single time? Why don’t you just go rob someone!!”

”Even if the Three Emperors’ wealth is enormous, it still won’t stand up to you lot squandering it like this, will it? You might as well just say you want to hand the entire Three Emperor Mountain over to your Phoenix Sect!”

Su Han’s eyes flashed. ”I really hadn’t thought of that. But if you truly have such an idea, I wouldn’t refuse.”

”Get lost!!”

”What did you say?”

Su Han’s expression turned cold, and the Supreme Crown and Supreme Treasure Pearl in his hands immediately swept up.

The old Guardian’s tone stalled, and he softened again.

”The orders given by the Three Emperors were to cultivate pillars among mankind. Three Emperor Mountain doesn’t belong to any one person, nor to any one Sect. As long as they meet the conditions, anyone can come in. If I violate the commands of the Three Emperors, I will be punished. What you’re asking me to do is impossible.”

Su Han smiled faintly. ”I was just joking earlier. After all, I already said, I’m not that kind of greedy person.”

The old man: ”...”

He practically wanted to stuff the entire Three Emperor Mountain into his pocket, and this isn’t greed???

If possible, the old man would rather grant Su Han the fortune at the ten-thousand-zhang mark than agree to these conditions!

”Three times!”

The old man said in a deep voice, ”This isn’t because you’re threatening me, but for the sake of the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor’s face. I’ll give your Phoenix Sect three special chances!”

”For these three times, no matter when they come in, I will do as you said and open the true entrance for them. And I won’t let them encounter any danger. Likewise, I’ll give them some benefits.”

”But only three times—at most three!”

”After those three times, people from the Phoenix Sect, unless they have some special means, will be treated the same as everyone else!”

”Good, then it’s settled!” Su Han’s eyes flashed.

Three chances are already enough.

These three chances can very well become the Phoenix Sect’s trump card to save itself if it faces disaster in the future.

”Swoosh!”

The old man waved his palm. The faint Jin Guang around him instantly condensed into a golden token, which fell into Su Han’s hand.

”In the future, if someone comes, I’ll judge them by this item.” The old man’s tone was rather unpleasant.

”Many thanks.”

Su Han grabbed the token, studied it for a moment, then put it away.

On this trip to Three Emperor Mountain, aside from that final Death Cliff, he has practically wrung dry every exploitable spot in the other four regions.

”Also, this is the fortune you earned by reaching five thousand zhang and eight thousand zhang!”

With a cold snort, the old man spoke.

He reached upward with his palm, directly tearing open the Void. Within it appeared cloud layers suffused with various colors...

These clouds were like Pills, spreading a rich fragrance.

Even just drifting out like this, everyone only had to take a single breath to feel clear-headed and refreshed!

”Now this is a true Supreme Treasure!”

Everyone’s eyes burned hot at this moment.

”These were left behind by the Three Emperors. If anyone tries to snatch them by force, they’ll self-destruct.” The old man swept his gaze over everyone.

Everyone immediately curled their lips.

Setting aside whether they would really self-destruct, with this old man standing here, there’s probably no one who dares to try and snatch them, right?

Those words were obviously meant for Su Han.

Only Su Han, holding the Supreme Crown, had any chance of coercing the old man and then... cough cough, forcefully taking them.

”Swoosh!”

The old man grabbed with his large hand, plucking out two clouds from within—one white, one yellow.

Su Han felt clearly that the aura of the yellow cloud was obviously much richer than that of the white.

Among all those cloud layers, the white one was clearly the most Low-Level.

”The five-thousand-zhang fortune is white; the eight-thousand-zhang fortune is yellow. Take them!” The old man tossed the clouds toward Su Han.

As the two clouds landed in Su Han’s hands, they had already fully solidified, shrinking down to palm-size.

Su Han could feel the dense aura emanating from within the clouds.

”Power of Heaven and Earth...” he murmured.

The force condensed into these clouds was neither Spiritual Power nor Star Power, nor was it immortal power.

Rather, it was the Power of Heaven and Earth that encompasses everything!

If the white cloud is merely ordinary Power of Heaven and Earth, then the yellow cloud is several times, even ten times that amount!

No one knows better than Su Han how precious this thing is.

Thus, the moment he grabbed those two clouds, he immediately fell into internal conflict.
