Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 225: Chapter 223: Scramble

“This thing must be a Holy Artifact for Artifact Refining and Alchemy,” someone couldn’t help but say. “I can sense an astonishing Pill Fragrance emanating from within. If there are no pills inside, then it surely was once used to refine extremely terrifying pills!”

Even if he hadn’t said it, the others could see it too.

This Golden Furnace was originally amidst the mountains, yet illusory shadows loomed at the mountain peak, indicating its preciousness.

“Whoever dares to compete with me for it, I will let him die!”

Mo Jiuyou stared intently at the Golden Furnace, breathing increasingly heavily.

He had a premonition that this Golden Furnace was like the Holy Artifact that Great King Yun Ye of the giant island had obtained; if he could get it, his status and identity would surely skyrocket.

However, no one paid him any mind. Even though he was a genius of the Chang’an Mountain Gate and the highest status person among those present, who would give up just because of his status when a Holy Artifact was right in front of them?

“Whoosh!”

Under everyone’s gaze, the Golden Furnace shone brightly, like a dazzling sun, extremely radiant.

“Grab it!”

Mo Jiuyou huffed coldly, suddenly dashed forward, and reached for the Golden Furnace amidst the giant rocks.

As the giant rocks hurtled through the air, a light appeared around Mo Jiuyou’s body, quickly transforming into a suit of armor that looked imposing.

At the same time, a silver-white Long Knife appeared in Mo Jiuyou’s hand. He swung it fiercely, and a ten-meter-long Sword Light flashed, striking the giant rock with a loud bang.

“Crack!”

With that strike, the giant rock was directly cleaved in two, and Mo Jiuyou’s figure passed through it.

“So sharp!”

Liu Feng, while running away to the distance, turned his head to look at Mo Jiuyou, utterly astonished.

Such giant rocks weighed millions of pounds, and earlier one had crushed a genius from a Second-Rate Sect to death, the latter not even having time to react. But with Mo Jiuyou’s move, it was split in half with a single slice.

“The descendants of these Grand Powers, although only at the Dragon Spirit Realm Peak of Cultivation Base, have many treasures at their disposal, like this silver-white Long Knife, which is at least of Mid-Grade Purple Gold Level!” Liu Feng sighed inwardly.

Mid-Grade Purple Gold Level weapons were worth at least one billion, these Grand Powers were truly wealthy.

While he was sighing inwardly, the others also demonstrated their strengths, rushing toward the Golden Furnace.

At this moment, they had all reacted, having found ways to deal with the giant rocks, easily dodging them.

Even if they truly couldn’t dodge and were hit by the rocks, they all had protective measures all over their bodies; they simply couldn’t die and didn’t even get hurt. At most, the rocks might delay them a bit.

“I have no hope,”

Liu Feng watched the many figures and finally gave up completely.

To compete with the descendants of so many Grand Powers for the treasure was truly too difficult, and he might even risk his life in the process.

Compared to those from Ninth-Rate or even Eighth-Rate Sects, his equipment was luxurious, even extravagant, but compared to the descendants of these Grand Powers, it seemed much colder.

“Get lost!”

Mo Jiuyou’s shout came from the void as a man dressed in blue sped forward, close to overtaking him.

Mo Jiuyou immediately made his move, sweeping the silver-white Long Knife, aiming it at the man in blue.

The latter’s face changed color; he had just witnessed the power of the silver-white Long Knife, and now with a cold huff, he quickly dodged to the side.

“Lan Yicen, you dare compete with me for this Golden Furnace?” Mo Jiuyou’s eyes flashed with a deadly aura.

“Heaven and earth’s treasures are there for those who can take them. This Golden Furnace is not yours,” Lan Yicen replied.

The man in blue, Momo Jiuyou referred to as ‘Lan Yicen,’ sneered. When he stepped into the void, his speed incredibly picked up once again, and in the blink of an eye, he surpassed Mo Jiuyou.

Mo Jiuyou’s face darkened. Lan Yicen was also from the First-Class Sect Extreme Night Sect. In terms of status, he was not the slightest bit inferior to Mo Jiuyou; it was just that the Extreme Night Sect’s foundation paled in comparison to that of Chang’an Mountain Gate.

“These bastards from the Extreme Night Sect focus on speed in their Cultivation Techniques. What Lan Yicen is using must be one of the Extreme Night Sect’s signature Dragon Techniques—the Kunpeng Movement Technique.”

Mo Jiuyou’s expression turned ugly: “In terms of strength, he is no match for me, but when it comes to speed, I simply can’t keep up with him!”

“Old Li, you two block that bastard for me!” Mo Jiuyou looked towards an elder beside him.

“Whiz whiz!”

Two figures immediately charged out. They were originally from the Dragon God Realm, suppressing their Cultivation Base to enter this place. Although their strength was also suppressed a great deal, given their Realm, when using the same Body Technique, their speed was naturally much faster.

“Li Chenglin, there are more Guardians who have entered this place than just you.”

Over at Lan Yicen’s side, two people also rushed over, both of them old women.

In nearly a blink of an eye, the four of them made contact, colliding fiercely with each other.

During this process, both Mo Jiuyou and Lan Yicen continued to rush towards the Golden Furnace.

“This Golden Furnace is mine!”

Lan Yicen’s eyes brightened, and he glanced back at Mo Jiuyou, only to see that the latter was still some distance behind him, allowing him to grab the Golden Furnace before Mo Jiuyou.

“Stop right there!”

Mo Jiuyou roared, his Long Knife suddenly swung out, and a tremendous Sword Light sliced through the void, reaching dozens of meters in length, and was several times more powerful than before.

The Sword Light tore through the void, aiming at Lan Yicen with incredible speed.

“In terms of strength, I can’t beat you, but in terms of speed, you’re still far behind!”

Lan Yicen snorted coldly, his figure suddenly becoming illusory.

The Sword Light slashed his body in two, but not a drop of blood flowed out.

“An afterimage?”

Someone exclaimed, but then frowned the very next moment, because that illusion was not an afterimage of Lan Yicen at all. With Lan Yicen’s speed, he was not fast enough to leave behind an afterimage.

“Whoosh!”

Lan Yicen’s figure appeared elsewhere, and he smirked at Mo Jiuyou before reaching out for the Golden Furnace.

However, at that moment, a golden palm suddenly emerged from the void, moving even faster than Lan Yicen.

“Dragon Seizing Hand?”

Lan Yicen’s face changed, and he bellowed, “Hua Yun, this is mine, dare you compete with me for it?!”

“Laughable.”

Not far behind Lan Yicen, a figure was swiftly approaching.

“You’ve said it yourself, heavenly treasures are there for anyone to claim, so why is this Golden Furnace suddenly yours?”

As this person spoke, his palm danced, and the golden palm in the void followed his movement, about to grab the Golden Furnace.

Mo Jiuyou’s face was sunken, and Lan Yicen looked even worse, as everyone thought the Golden Furnace would certainly become part of Hua Yun’s booty.

Unexpectedly, just as Hua Yun was about to seize the Golden Furnace, it suddenly quivered and transformed into a stream of light, screaming off into the distance.

And the direction the Golden Furnace surged toward… was right where Liuu Feng was!
