Chapter 2322 Raw 2429 : Situation Stable for Now?

“Damn it…the movements of the Ninth Prince’s guests are very orderly and well thought out. They can switch between offense and defense without opening any gaps. There are no openings at all.”

The princes whom the Demon Blood Vulture chased away earlier had gathered.

When the princes looked from afar at the Heavenly Book Scholar and the others dealing with the ferocious beast wave, they frowned heavily and showed sullen expressions.

Initially, it was the Second Prince, the Fifteenth Prince, and their groups of helpers who had been fighting over this altar.

Unexpectedly, the Ninth Prince Wang Yan led people over and forcibly snatched it away.

Xiao Chen forced the Second Prince, who led one group, to forfeit. The Demon Blood Vulture put the other side into a miserable state, prompting those princes to scatter.

The Fifteenth Prince Wang Qi’s strength was decent. Furthermore, he had three other princes helping him. Earlier, his momentum had been growing.

However, after the Demon Blood Vulture’s repeated killing moves, the number of his guests had been halved when they reassembled.

The Fifteenth Prince planned to take advantage of the time when the Ninth Prince’s guests were flustered from the ferocious beast wave to charge over again.

Unexpectedly, the Ninth Prince’s seven guests showed no openings under the Heavenly Book Scholar’s directions.

Before the first wave of ferocious beasts reached within fifty kilometers of the altar, it got wiped out.

“Fifteenth Elder Brother, don’t give up. It is just that Xiao Chen’s demonic pet is too strong. If we cannot deal with the Demon Blood Vulture, we will not have any chance at victory at all,” a prince said with lingering fear. The Demon Blood Vulture had cast a shadow in his heart.

The Fifteenth Prince showed an uncertain expression. He was reluctant to give up but could not think of any way to deal with this.

Not a single person among the many guests dared to step forward to fight that Demon Blood Vulture.

“If anyone can delay that Demon Blood Vulture, I will reward him with an Inferior Grade Soul Tool, a Rank 9 Heavenly Pill of his choosing, and two hundred fifty thousand kilograms of Origin Liquid!” Wang Qi said through clenched teeth, promising the limits of his resources.

However, when the Fifteenth Prince looked around, no one met his gaze.

This angered Wang Qi into scolding, “Bunch of trash!”

Actually, Wang Qi’s words somewhat wronged his guests. In reality, they were quite strong.

The problem was that his guests did not take orders from him; they were here only to obtain fortuitous encounters. They owed him no loyalty. It would not be a problem if their lives were guaranteed. After all, if their prince left the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb, they would have to leave as well. However, one would be expecting too much if one wanted these guests to risk their lives.

The Demon Blood Vulture’s bloodline had already mutated, possessing Divine Might. This meant that it had grown infinitely closer to the Great Desolate Eon’s Blood Phoenix.

If one got careless against such a demonic pet, one could die.

Who would be foolish enough to step out? Nothing was more important than their own lives.

Furthermore, these experts were Divine Vein Sovereign Emperors. After they left the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb, they did not need to show any respect to the prince. No matter where they went, they could be overlords of that area. The two sides were just being polite to each other; the guests did not fear the prince.

Hence, no matter how angry the Fifteenth Prince got, it was pointless.

“Haha! Fifteenth Younger Brother, why so angry? All those here are Sovereign Emperor outstanding talents, people much stronger than us. If they are trash, then what are we?”

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

A disharmonious voice came from the distance. After this voice sounded, a group of people appeared in front of the Fifteenth Prince.

A trace of rage flashed across the Fifteenth Prince’s face. When he saw the leader of that group, he asked sullenly, “Seventh Elder Brother, are you here just to lecture me?”

The person who came was the Seventh Prince Wang Xu, who naturally could not swallow the frustration from being miserably played by Xiao Chen.

After reorganizing, the Seventh Prince had immediately charged over.

“Greetings, Seventh Prince.”

The many guests around the Fifteenth Prince did not show much change in expression when they heard Wang Xu’s words. However, they more or less agreed with him. After Wang Xu appeared, they greeted him.

After Wang Xu politely returned the greetings, he looked at Wang Qi and said, “Fifteenth Younger Brother, you are no longer a threat to Ninth Brother. No matter what, you have to acknowledge this.”

Wang Qi’s eyes sank, but his lips curled up in mockery as he retorted, “So what? Are you strong enough to pose a threat to him? Earlier, I saw that you could not do anything about Xiao Chen’s pursuit, either.”

Wang Qi’s tone sounded somewhat taunting, but Wang Xu did not get angry. He replied indifferently, “Indeed, I do not have much of a chance of victory. However, if you are willing to help me, Ninth Brother will lose for sure. As for the Demon Blood Vulture you are worried about, I have guests that can deal with it. As for the remaining Xiao Chen…I have already thought of a measure.”

“Really?” Wang Qi asked with some disbelief. He looked at Wang Xu contemplatively.

“Do you think that you have a choice? You can either choose to follow me or wander around to try and seek help from others. After that, you can only wait to be eliminated when the second round ends. If I can enter the third round, I will definitely give you plenty of benefits. Hehe! The Ancient Yan Emperor Tree will appear in the third round. I’m sure I don’t have to explain the fortuitous encounter that it provides, right?” Wang Xu laughed, appearing confident, unworried that the other party would reject.

“Fifteenth Elder Brother, just agree. Seventh Brother is stronger than us.”

“If you do not agree, we will just follow Seventh Brother ourselves. In any case, it makes no difference to us.”

When the princes who initially followed the Fifteenth Prince heard what Wang Xu said, they felt tempted.

Wang Qi’s expression changed. Then, he said, “As long as you can deal with that Demon Blood Vulture, there is no problem with following you and giving it a try.”

Wang Xu turned his head and looked at a middle-aged man among his guests. “Mister Lu, I will leave the Demon Blood Vulture to you.”

That middle-aged man wore strange clothing and leaked a faint Demonic Might. He was actually a Demonic Dao Sovereign Emperor.

Mister Lu nodded with an indifferent expression. “The Demon Blood Vulture comes from the Ash Gray Sea. It is incredibly strong, but it is not without weaknesses. I have a way to deal with it. However, I am not a match for that Xiao Chen, so I can only depend on Senior Ma.”

The skinny, old man chuckled. “Don’t worry. He cannot do anything to me, no matter how strong he is. The difference in cultivation cannot be offset so easily. I just need to think of a way to delay him and wait for you all to chase the Ninth Prince out of the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb.”

“Good. We will wait to take action after two more waves of ferocious beasts have passed.”

“Sure.”

After making up their minds, these people started preparing. Including the Seventh Prince Wang Xu, this group had five princes.

With so many princes gathering, the many powerhouses at the palace’s drill ground worried for the Ninth Prince Wang Yan.

Most of the princes occupying altars only faced attacks from three princes at most. However, the Ninth Prince now faced five.

“This is really worrying for the Ninth Prince.”

“Indeed. During the first round, the Thirteenth Prince targeted him, nearly resulting in a wipeout. Now, five princes are targeting him in this round.”

“It is difficult. The five princes have at least forty Sovereign Emperors under them.

“The most crucial thing is that they are still so cautious. Just look at their plan. They are only going to attack after two more waves of ferocious beasts have passed.”

The various powerhouses and Noble Clans’ Clan Heads paying attention to the eight altars felt somewhat worried for the Ninth Prince.

---

At the same time, the chaotic battles in the entire core region slowly peaked.

Naturally, the First Prince Wang Fei’s refinement went the smoothest. He had the most guests, and all of them were talented experts.

Be it the Azure Lotus Holy Daughter, the Black Lotus Church’s Holy Son, or that mysterious man shrouded in bloody shadows, they could all be called super experts.

There was the even more horrifying Xi hidden in the darkness, yet to make a move.

The most convenient thing was that no other prince dared to target him. Thus, Wang Fei could focus on refining his Yan Imperial Sword without worrying about other things.

However, Wang Fei had chosen the Ruler Dao. Completing the refinement would not be easy, even without any interference.

Nevertheless, Wang Fei’s strength would soar greatly once he succeeded.

Up to now, nearly everyone thought highly of the First Prince. The other princes, no matter who it was, were all inferior.

Aside from the First Prince, a few of the other princes could not be underestimated, either.

For example, the Eighth Prince Wang Feng. When Dao Yan brought out his ice small world and froze thousands of Sovereign-Emperor-level ferocious beasts with the wave of a hand, he shocked everyone. Such strength could nearly be considered unparalleled.

Aside from Dao Yan, no one else in the entire Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb showed a tenth-layer Dao Domain.

Furthermore, there were three experts from the Profound Heaven Holy Land: the Holy Son Wenren Yu, Mu Yunzhu, and Gu Yuhan. These three showed the strength of a super expert.

They already easily cleared three ferocious beast waves, completely destroying all of the ferocious beasts fifty thousand kilometers from the altar.

A different scene appeared at the Thirteenth Prince’s altar.

Sikong Shu and the Silver Dragon King brought out their Great Desolate Divine Might and scared the surrounding ferocious beasts into trembling, deterring them from getting close.

The means of winning without a fight made everyone sigh in amazement.

The Eleventh Prince and the Sixth Prince were both worth noting, as well. Both of them had an expert with a Death Dao Domain. Using the mysteries of death, they turned the dead Sovereign-Emperor-level ferocious beasts into zombies.

They easily faced the endlessly surging ferocious beast waves, not getting flustered at all.

The people outside believed that the First Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Thirteenth Prince, as well as the Eleventh Prince and the Sixth Prince, would have no problems clearing the second round.

As for the other princes occupying altars, there were many variables, and they might be chased off.

This was the general situation in the core region. To these powerhouses, there would not be any other variables.
