Jointly attack the mountain?
Upon hearing Chen Tianming’s words, Xiao Yichen quickly exchanged a glance with Qi Tian. Qi Tian gave a slight nod.
Xiao Yichen asked: “Chen Tianming, if we follow your suggestion and everyone joins forces to attack the mountain, then once the grand array is broken, who will the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance belong to?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their eyes to Chen Tianming.
Chen Tianming smiled: “That is simple. Once the grand array is opened, everyone can show their own abilities. As for who ultimately obtains the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance, that will depend on each person’s fortune.”
“However, I advise you all not to compete with me for it.”
“Because I am determined to obtain the Dragon Soul inheritance.”
“I am favoured by destiny. The Dragon Emperor’s inheritance is destined to be mine.”
Hmph!
A chorus of cold snorts rang out across the scene.
“We have not even seen a shadow of the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance, yet you already claim it is yours. What arrogance.”
“Such an opportunity as the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance can only belong to someone with great destiny. Chen Tianming, are you worthy?”
“Chen Tianming, even if you obtain the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance, do not think you will walk out alive.”
“…”
Voices poured into everyone’s ears.
Chen Tianming was not angry. Instead, he laughed: “No matter how unwilling you are, in the end, the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance will definitely be mine. I know what you are all thinking. I advise you not to even dream of keeping me here.”
“It is not that I fear you. Rather, anyone who dares to be my enemy, I will make sure your entire group perishes.”
Utterly arrogant.
Xiao Yichen exchanged another glance with Qi Tian. The two instantly understood each other’s intentions and reached a tacit agreement.
Join forces to kill Chen Tianming!
At this moment, Chen Tianming spoke again: “Discussing who the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance belongs to is still too early in the current situation. First, we need to break the array on the mountain peak.”
“If this grand array cannot be broken, everything else is empty talk.”
“If you are willing to join me in attacking the mountain, then let us all strike together. If anyone is unwilling, then get lost immediately and do not stay here obstructing the view.”
“And if anyone tries to fish in troubled waters, be careful, because I will not be polite.”
Chen Tianming’s gaze swept sharply over the disciples of the various major forces like a sword, extremely intimidating.
A brief silence fell over the scene.
A moment later.
“I think Chen Tianming’s proposal is feasible.” A voice came from the direction of the Taichu Holy Land.
The speaker was the young man standing at the very front of the group. He was the second divine son of the Taichu Holy Land, Li Jian!
Wu Qinghao followed up: “I also think it is workable.”
As for the Huanggu Holy Land side, although Wang Cong wished he could kill Chen Tianming right then and there, at this moment, even he had to admit that Chen Tianming’s proposal was not a bad idea.
Rather than everyone standing here helplessly with nothing to do, it was better for them to unite and attack the mountain together.
“I have no objections.” Wang Cong said.
“Xiao Yichen, Qi Tian, what about you two?” Chen Tianming asked.
“I agree.” Qi Tian replied.
Xiao Yichen said: “As you said, let us all join forces to break open this grand array.”
“Excellent.” Chen Tianming smiled.
This outcome was within his expectations. After all, the reason they had come to the Dragon Burial Nest was precisely for the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance. Otherwise, who would come here with nothing better to do?
Chen Tianming said: “For this attack on the mountain, the divine sons of the six top forces of the Eastern Wasteland will take action. As for the rest of you, all retreat to avoid injuring the innocent.”
In truth, Chen Tianming was warning the disciples of the other sects that their cultivation was insufficient. They could not help even if they tried, and they might even lose their lives, so they should get far away.
“Retreat!” Xiao Yichen gave the order, and the disciples of the Butian Sect behind him quickly withdrew a thousand metres.
“Pa!”
Wu Qinghao snapped his fingers, and the Chaos Holy Land disciples following him also retreated far away.
From the Huanggu Holy Land direction.
Wang Cong instructed Fang Tianming and the others: “You all retreat as well. Be careful and act according to the situation.”
“Yes.” Fang Tianming and the others quickly withdrew.
Qi Tian softly said to Ye Qiu: “Junior brother, you should also retreat to a safe place.”
“Senior brother, be careful.” Ye Qiu reminded him, then transmitted his voice: “Chen Tianming has bad intentions. Senior brother must be on guard.”
“I know.” Qi Tian transmitted back: “Do not worry. He is as good as dead.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu cupped his fists in salute, then took Changmei Zhenren and quickly retreated a thousand metres away to find a quiet spot to wait.
Li Jian waved his hand, and the disciples of the Taichu Holy Land behind him swiftly withdrew.
As for the Qingyun Sword Sect side, Chen Tianming was alone with no disciples behind him. It was unknown whether they had all died or simply had not arrived.
Soon, only six people remained in front of the mountain peak.
Qi Tian, Chen Tianming, Xiao Yichen, Wang Cong, Li Jian, Wu Qinghao!
These six came from the six top forces of the Eastern Wasteland, each one a peerless genius!
Moreover, the lowest cultivation among them was at the peak of the Tongshen realm.
Qi Tian, Chen Tianming, and Xiao Yichen even had the strength to contend with saint-level powerhouses.
The six stood in a line.
Each one erupted with powerful battle intent, all staring fixedly at the golden mountain before them.
“Everyone, the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance is inside this mountain. Only by breaking the grand array on the mountain can we see the inheritance. So I hope that when you strike, you all go all out and do not hold back.”
After Chen Tianming finished speaking, he asked: “Who will go first?”
“I will!”
Wang Cong stepped forward a few paces. Instantly, his body erupted with blazing golden light, as if a sun were burning inside him. The radiance was dazzling.
At the same time, a golden great bell appeared above Wang Cong’s head.
The golden great bell was like a towering mountain, majestic and grand. The bell walls were engraved with countless runes, as if innumerable divine spirits were chanting softly, releasing a terrifying aura.
“The Saint King Bell!”
Many people present recognised the great bell above Wang Cong’s head and cried out in shock.
The Saint King Bell was a peerless saint artefact!
It was said that this bell had been forged by an ancient saint king of the Huanggu Holy Land over a full three thousand years. Its power was extremely formidable.
“Boom!”
Wang Cong struck with the Heaven-Dominating Fist. He pushed his combat power to the limit. A punch shot out, and the golden fist imprint was like a massive star crashing towards the golden mountain.
Immediately after.
“Dang!”
A resounding bell toll shook the heavens and earth. The Saint King Bell slammed heavily into the golden mountain.
However, Wang Cong’s attack and the power of the Saint King Bell were like a pebble thrown into the sea. They did not stir the slightest ripple.
“What?”
Everyone present changed colour.
Especially the peerless geniuses. They could all see that when Wang Cong activated the Saint King Bell, his strength was extremely terrifying. Even against a saint-level powerhouse, he could fight.
Yet no one had expected that such immense power could not shake the golden mountain in the slightest.
It was too terrifying.
Chen Tianming sneered: “Trash!”
Wang Cong’s face turned alternately pale and flushed. He turned back and glared angrily at Chen Tianming: “Do not just talk big. If you have the ability, try it yourself?”
“Fine. Let me show you what I am capable of.” Chen Tianming said as he gripped the hilt of the sword behind his back.
