Chapter 644: 0645 Great Emperor Level Opportunity (Fourth Update)
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
One after another, figures descended, and many descendants of the ancient clans had all arrived at the burial site of the Great Emperor, publicly known to all.
"Is this the place where the Great Emperor is buried?"
The sight in front of them didn’t resemble a cemetery but looked more like a palace.
However, for the time being, no one stepped forward because there were quite a few corpses lying there, warning others that this place was dangerous.
In front of the crowd, there was a bridge; this bridge led to the palace. Only by crossing this bridge could one enter.
"Look, it’s Mu Cannan, Shi Qingbing!"
Someone pointed to the two young men, noticing these two outstanding individuals from the ancient lands.
"Just now, when Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing stepped onto this bridge, they both got injured, and they are now recovering," someone explained to those who had just arrived.
"Just a bridge stumped the two strongest elites of our ancient lands?" Many people were stunned. If even Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing couldn’t get through, then there was no need to mention the rest of them.
"Of course, This bridge is dangerous. As soon as someone steps forward, they will be attacked. Look at the front, middle, and back of the bridge, where there are two stone statues wielding weapons. These six stone statues are very strong. For those who are not afraid of death to step forward, isn’t this what happens, being stabbed right through the chest by a statue?"
Many people turned their gaze towards the ancient clan descendants on the ground still bleeding profusely from their chests, and couldn’t help but click their tongues in amazement.
"Isn’t this the elite of the Mo Clan, who died here like this?" someone recognized the figure on the ground and exclaimed.
The Mo Clan was also considered a mid-tier ancient clan in the ancient lands. Their elite might not compare to the upper clans and the three great ancient clans, but among the mid-tier clans, he also held a high ranking. Having not even crossed the bridge, to die here was truly shocking for many.
However, seeing that both Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing were injured, it was no surprise that the elite of the Mo Clan had perished; it only showed how difficult it was to seize the opportunity.
Some of the ancient clan descendants who had arrived later had their previously eager hearts cooled by half at this point. The death of the Mo Clan elite was like a bucket of cold water being poured down; if anyone still lacked self-awareness and recklessly attempted to cross the bridge, they would inevitably meet the same fate.
At this moment, more and more people had stopped here, many were waiting for Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing’s next attempt to cross the bridge.
After all, as the strongest present, if even they couldn’t make it across, the others held even less hope.
Of course, there were still some who were not afraid to die and chose to risk an attempt.
The result was that as soon as they set foot on the bridge, two stone statues moved instantly, and the ancient clan descendant was cut in two. The two statues flashed again and returned to their original spots, motionless.
Seeing the power of the stone statues made many more people aware; many were amazed. Such speed was unattainable even for an average legendary realm. If the first challenge was this difficult, then how could they possibly face what comes after!
Seeing this, some ancient clan descendants felt that obtaining the legacy of the Great Emperor was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
"I wonder what Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing will do?" Many people were curious whether the two would give up.
Just as people were discussing incessantly, Ji Lingchen came slowly.
Accompanied by several ancient clan descendants, he said to the people, "Make way, make way."
The pushed aside clanspeople were discontented, but seeing Ji Lingchen, who followed behind them, they could only swallow their anger; after all, he was the number one person in the ancient lands.
"Ji Lingchen has arrived!"
Many people’s eyes lit up. Now that the elites of the three great ancient clans had gathered, surely Ji Lingchen, with his strength, should be able to get through.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing, who were sitting in recovery, opened their eyes one after another. They saw Ji Lingchen step forward, without turning back to look at them, and spoke indifferently, "Inside the Great Emperor’s tomb, where one cannot borrow external forces or use domains, the only way to deal with the six troublesome stone automatons is for the three of us to join forces. Are you two sufficiently recovered?"
"We’ve been waiting for you. Our previous attacks were merely to test the strength of the stone automatons," said Mu Cannan.
"Ji Lingchen, you’ve been quite slow," added Shi Qingbing, before quickly changing the subject, "Was it you who spread the news of this Emperor Level opportunity?"
A white gleam burst forth from Ji Lingchen’s eyes, "I was about to ask you two the same question... It seems only our three ancient clans knew about this, yet now, everyone in the ancient clans is aware..."
"Enough, now that it’s known, it’s known—it’s fine. In the end, it’s the three of us contending for the Emperor’s opportunity. As for them..." Mu Cannan glanced at the many descendants of the ancient clans behind them, not saying much more, but the implication was clear—the others didn’t stand a chance.
"Heh... In that case, let’s make our move!" Ji Lingchen stated lightly.
A gleam of determination shone in the eyes of Mu Cannan and Shi Qingbing. Brimming with fighting spirit, the three stood at the head of the bridge and struck out in an instant.
Suddenly, two stone automatons swung their weapons and were locked in fierce battle with the three.
Bang, bang, bang!
All sorts of attacks raged on the bridge, each one terrifyingly potent, causing many to retreat for fear of being injured themselves.
It must be said, with the three of them working together, the two stone automatons no longer had their initial dominance. They were suppressed by the trio, who were also steadily advancing toward the middle of the bridge.
Whoosh, whoosh...
The stone automatons stationed in the center of the bridge made their move. These two were even stronger than the previous ones, stirring up a spray of water from below the bridge with their first attack.
The three men dodged and weaved through the fight against the four stone automatons, swiftly making their way to the far end of the bridge.
The last two stone automatons moved. The three, facing off against six stone automatons, felt an immense increase in pressure. Their only advantage was the narrowness of the bridge, which they exploited to bypass the stone automatons while continuing to fight and move backward.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Having crossed the bridge, the three stepped off and out of its range. The stone automatons ceased their assault, returned to their positions, and once again became motionless.
The three scions of the ancient clans had passed through!
On the other side of the bridge, the many descendants of the ancient clans showed their envy. This meant the three of them might have a chance at obtaining the Emperor’s legacy.
Other scions of the ancient clans could not sit still any longer, such as Sun Baichi from the upper-class Sun clan, and Yue Lun from the Yue clan, who had seen Ji Lingchen and the others cooperate to cross the bridge.
The two of them rallied other powerful figures from their ancient clans, ready to employ the same strategy to get across the floating bridge.
An Emperor Level opportunity was something no one could remain calm about. The lessons learned by those who had set out confidently but prematurely met their end were quickly forgotten. With the prospect of fortune before them, many were unwilling to merely stand by and watch.
Since Ji Lingchen and his two allies had succeeded, they held out hope of doing the same.
Soon, the floating bridge became a scene of clashing swords and flashing blades as the descendants of the ancient clans began to fight, continuously provoking the stone automatons into battle.
Ji Lingchen, Mu Cannan, and Shi Qingbing, the first three to make it across, looked back at the many descendants of the ancient clans still embroiled in combat and trying to make their way across.
"Gentlemen, our collaboration ends here. From now on, it’s every man for himself with whatever means we have!" Ji Lingchen said calmly.
Afterward, the three quickly leapt into the great hall, disappearing from view in the blink of an eye.
