Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1750: Chapter 1750: Breaking the Deadlock

Within the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion, there are naturally prohibitions.

Those who enter may leave at any time if they wish.

Of course, leaving would mean you would no longer have any chance with the opportunities within the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion.

At this moment, Zhang Baicao’s departure left the remaining dozen or so Heavenly Talents looking at each other.

There was panic, reluctance, fear, and sadness.

”Forget it, let’s just leave.” A Heavenly Talent said weakly.

”Opportunities are important, but life is more important.”

”Young Master Lianxing, Young Master Huowu, will you leave with us?”

Each Heavenly Talent was already as weak as gossamer.

Their skin was so dry it was about to crack.

If they didn’t leave soon, they might really end up buried here.

Being inside the Alchemy Furnace, being burned and refined like materials, that feeling was truly terrifying.

Of course, the fear of death made people’s hearts race even more.

Especially to be melted into water, dying so miserably, even the top Heavenly Talents present did not dare take such a risk.

”I won’t leave.” Gongsun Huowu shook her head, her bloodless face full of seriousness.

”If the little thief leaves, I’ll leave. If the little thief doesn’t leave, then I won’t leave either.”

Gu Lianxing smiled wanly, ”Originally, I thought it was safer to follow Young Master Xiao Yi without dragging Brother Ye down, so I came along.”

”Now, I can’t just abandon Young Master Xiao Yi.”

”If Young Master Xiao Yi doesn’t leave, Lianxing will stay here with him.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, ”Wait a little longer, rest assured, I have confidence.”

”The most difficult of the eighteen prohibitions? Just a joke.”

Xiao Yi spoke with full confidence.

...

Outside, in the midst of the prohibitions.

Elders from various factions waited anxiously outside.

Leading them were Ao Donglou, the Eighteen Mansions Elders, and the Five Great Academy Elders.

”Considering the time, a team should be coming out soon.” Ao Donglou chuckled softly.

”Oh?” Elders from various factions showed surprise on their faces.

”We who are outside have no idea what’s happening inside the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb.”

”Why is Palace Master Ao so sure a team will come out so soon?”

Ao Donglou smiled.

The Eighteen Mansions Elders laughed, ”It’s simple; among the eighteen prohibitions, there is one most difficult prohibition, called the Alchemy Prohibition.”

”Since the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb opened, no one has ever passed it.”

”No one ever passed it?” Elders from various factions were shocked.

”Who is in that prohibition?”

Elders from various factions questioned anxiously, fearing their own Heavenly Talents were involved.

”I don’t know.” The Eighteen Mansions Elders shook their heads, ”After the eighteen prohibitions formed, Heavenly Talents with quotas led teams in.”

”No one knows which prohibition is the Alchemy Prohibition; it’s all up to luck.”

Ao Donglou smiled, ”I’ve hosted the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb event several times.”

”Every time, not long after it opens, there’s always a team forced out.”

”This time, we’ll see who the unlucky one is.”

Almost as Ao Donglou finished speaking.

In the front, a boom sounded.

A figure was blasted out directly.

”Here it comes.” Ao Donglou and others looked ahead.

”Hmm? Zhang Baicao? The Young Sect Master of Holy Grass Sect in Six Dragon Territory?”

Yes, it was Zhang Baicao who was blasted out.

At this moment, Zhang Baicao’s skin was cracked, looking extremely miserable.

Judging by his injuries, they were not light at all.

Seeing this, Ao Donglou’s face suddenly changed, ”If I remember correctly, weren’t you following Xiao Yixiao’s team? How come...”

As Ao Donglou spoke, a burst of Pure Element Power was injected into Zhang Baicao’s body.

Zhang Baicao steadied his breath and said, ”We encountered the Alchemy Prohibition, damn it...”

”What?” Ao Donglou’s face turned slightly pale, ”Xiao Yixiao’s team encountered the Alchemy Prohibition?”

The Five Great Academy Elders sneered, ”Looks like that little thief Xiao Yi is the unlucky one this time.”

”Haha, what of the Twin Stars; it seems they will be blasted out of the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb in minutes.”

The Heavenly Star Mansion Elders and the Heavenly Rope Mansion Elders also changed their expressions, ”Their Young Sect Masters...”

”Sigh.” Before they finished speaking, they sighed.

Every time the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb opened, those who encountered the Alchemy Prohibition never passed, no one ever survived.

This time, there should be no exception.

”Perhaps, there might be a variable?” Ao Donglou frowned.

”With Xiao Yixiao’s skills...”

”A variable?” The Five Great Academy Elders sneered, ”Ao Donglou, why deceive yourself?”

”Don’t you know what’s inside the Alchemy Prohibition?”

”It’s simply a dead end.”

”Competing in alchemy speed with the means left by the Ancient Emperor? Isn’t that a joke?”

Ao Donglou squinted his eyes.

The Five Great Academy Elders sneered, ”If it were Purple Flame Yi Xiao who went in, with his impending role in Medicine Venerate Hall and Flame Hall, his terrifying fire control and alchemy skills, maybe there’d be a chance to break the deadlock.”

”But alas, it wasn’t him, it was the other of the Twin Stars.”

”That Sword Dao demon has no chance.”

”Haha, that’s destiny, can’t blame anyone else.”

The Five Great Academy Elders sneered.

...

Inside the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb.

In a place filled with crisscrossing Sword Qi, Zhang Nanfeng advanced with a sword.

Behind him, a group of Heavenly Talents followed.

However, the situation of these Heavenly Talents was evidently not good.

”Damn it.” Yue Tian gritted his teeth, ”If I had known you were this weak, I would have followed my own Domain Master.”

Zhang Nanfeng smirked, ”If not for your friendship with Senior Brother Xiao Yi, do you think I’d bring you along?”

”We’re considered lucky.” Muu Ning smiled, ”The Sword Qi Restriction is the weakest of the eighteen restrictions, it’s not hard for us to pass.”

...

In a land of swirling yellow sand.

Whoosh... several sharp arrows broke through the sky, shattering countless grains of sand.

”Haha.” Lingg Hong laughed several times, ”Though I’m the weakest among the leaders.”

”With the help of you all, it’s truly strong join hands.”

”Hmph, what is that little thief Xiao Yi.”

”We can compete for the Ancient Emperor’s opportunity too.”

...

In a pale land.

The Black Cloud Academy team was surrounded by hundreds of puppets.

”Damn it.” Tong Ye gritted his teeth, ”Such bad luck, encountering the second hardest of the eighteen restrictions, the Puppet Land.”

”These Body Cultivation Puppets are very tricky.” Qin Yi’s face looked grim.

”Suppress.” At that moment, a vast Sword Qi hovered above.

”With me here, no need to worry.” Mo Youu swung a sword, instantly suppressing the surrounding Body Cultivation Puppets.

Qing Lin leapt over the crowd, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with numerous Body Cultivation Puppets, not falling behind at all.

”Qing Lin is such a freak.” The Academic Disciples showed expressions of shock.

”I wonder how Xiao Yi is doing now...”

...

Inside the Alchemy Prohibition.

Snap... snap...

Dozens of Heavenly Talents had already fainted to the ground.

Now, even the strongest two, Gu Lianxing and another, blacked out and collapsed.

Only, before fainting, the two weakly murmured a phrase.

”Little... thief, it’s up to you.”

”Young Master Xiao Yi...”

The two only had time to murmur weakly.

All around, flames were already raging, blazing fiercely.

Xiao Yi gritted his teeth, and the Primordial Power within him suddenly surged.

”Hundred Dao Pill, condense.” A loud shout.

From the Fire Furnace, bursts of Dan Fragrance wafted out.

”It’s done.” Xiao Yi’s face lit up with joy, ”Break for me.”

A Purple Lightning appeared out of thin air in his hand, and with a swing of his sword, the surrounding raging flames dissipated completely.

”Go.” With a wave of his hand, Xiao Yi encapsulated everyone with surging Primordial Power and instantly leaped up.

...

Third update.

Today’s update, done.
