Chapter 760, Breaking Through the Door

Translator: Silavin

 

*Swish!*

 

As Gu Feitian attacked, Yao Yue’s hands danced rapidly. Before him, crimson Yuan Energy swiftly condensed, terrible fluctuations rippling outward from within.

 

“Break!”

 

With Yao Yue’s sharp cry, the silver Yuan Energy before him shot forth like an eerie crescent moon. Wherever it passed, space itself seemed to ripple.

 

The moment both struck, the World Energy around them violently fluctuated. Sensing this disturbance, everyone’s expressions shifted. Qiao Linlang and Xia Lieyang, who had previously considered themselves comparable to these two, now wore considerably more solemn expressions.

 

*Boom! Boom! Boom!…*

 

Simultaneously, over a dozen Martial Emperors unleashed formidable assaults. Various Yuan Energy attacks rapidly bombarded the same point on the stone door.

 

Finally, Mu Yanzhen smiled softly, her delicate jade hand pointing into the empty air before her. Qin Yichen observed with some shock as space itself seemed to collapse beneath those slender fingers. An obscure fluctuation rippled outward, and before her, a distorted trace shot toward the stone door.

 

Within mere moments, those overwhelming attacks converged, hammering violently against the stone door.

 

As these magnificent assaults descended, the stone door emanated obscure fluctuations. Upon its surface, intricate mystical patterns manifested.

 

*Boom!*

 

First to arrive was Gu Feitian’s domineering golden beam, striking a single point on the door and causing those obscure patterns to ripple.

 

*Bang!*

 

Immediately after, the crimson eerie crescent moon followed. As it impacted, the mystical patterns upon the stone door rippled more rapidly, their lustre dimming considerably.

 

*Boom! Boom!*

 

The next instant, assaults from over a dozen Martial Emperors descended in overwhelming waves. Amid thunderous impacts, the patterns on the door flickered frantically.

 

Yet as the violent Yuan Energy fluctuations gradually dissipated, though the door’s patterns had grown extremely dim, they continued persistently flickering.

 

This sight caused everyone’s pupils to contract. Having endured attacks from so many Martial Emperors, these seals remained unbroken.

 

*Buzz…* While the crowd marveled at its resilience, an obscure fluctuation accompanied by subtle spatial distortion quietly arrived.

 

*Crack!* An invisible wave rippled outward. Then, under astonished gazes, visible fissures fractured across the door.

 

“Damn it, what a drag!” At that moment, Li Yuanba’s impatient voice suddenly rang out. Everyone witnessed his massive frame charging forward, dual hammers in hand.

 

*Boom!*

 

A thunderous crash followed. Where the patterns had cracked, the stone door shattered into rubble beneath a single hammer blow.

 

Before anyone could react, Li Yuanba’s imposing figure had already flashed through the breach.

 

“Huh?”

 

Witnessing this, peculiar light flashed through Mu Yanzhen’s beautiful eyes.

 

“Damn it!”

 

Seeing Li Yuanba enter first, numerous experts cursed before hastily rushing forward. Their actions resembled those of men abstinent for a decade suddenly glimpsing naked beauties ahead.

 

Gu Feitian and Yao Yue, however, found themselves somewhat embarrassed. Having intended to maintain their image before Mu Yanzhen, they had not immediately charged inside.

 

“Miss Yanzhen, we shall meet again inside.” Eventually, Gu Feitian could not restrain himself any longer. Cupping his fists toward Mu Yanzhen, he flashed forward. Seeing this, Yao Yue also nodded toward Mu Yanzhen before following closely.

 

Finally, only the unhurried Qin Yichen and Mu Yanzhen remained.

 

“That brute wielding giant hammers, is he your companion?”

 

Just as Qin Yichen was prepared to proceed, Mu Yanzhen’s pleasant voice suddenly sounded.

 

Qin Yichen frowned slightly, regarding her with some wariness. Though Mu Yanzhen exhibited no Yuan Energy fluctuations, he keenly sensed from her a danger even greater than that posed by Gu Feitian or Yao Yue!

 

“Hehe, using Early Stage Martial Emperor Realm cultivation to pressure a Late Stage Martial Emperor who had summoned their Martial Soul to such an extent, truly impressive.”

 

Mu Yanzhen’s laughter-tinged voice continued. Within her clear, water-like eyes gleamed rare interest.

 

“He only possesses greater physical strength. The ones you should worry about isn’t him, but those guys fawning over you.”

 

Hearing this, Qin Yichen’s expression tensed. This woman had observed Li Yuanba’s earlier actions. However, he had no desire to provoke someone of unfathomable depth. Immediately, he responded with a light laugh.

 

“You worry too much.” Just as Qin Yichen attempted to redirect attention toward Gu Feitian and others, hoping to plant wariness in Mu Yanzhen’s mind that might constrain them, Mu Yanzhen casually dismissed his concern. Her form glided ghost-like forward, disappearing into the darkness beyond the stone door within several flashes.

 

Witnessing this, Qin Yichen felt somewhat perplexed, unable to comprehend Mu Yanzhen’s true intentions.

 

Fortunately, she seemed to harbour no ill will toward him. This was a fact that greatly satisfied him. At least he would not inexplicably gain another enemy like Xia Lieyang or Qiao Linlang, like he had when he first entered the ancient battlefield…

 

Qin Yichen’s gaze swept across the doorway. Currently, no figures remain. Clearly, everyone had impatiently rushed inside seeking the inheritance.

 

[Good… If Li Yuanba had left and I faced both Qiao Linlang and Xia Lieyang simultaneously, that would have been troublesome…]

 

Seeing no worrisome figures, Qin Yichen shook his head with a long sigh. Then, he too stepped toward the stone door.

 

Upon entering, that oppressive sensation which had dissipated returned with overwhelming force. Though the pressure proved less intense than before, it still caused Qin Yichen’s body to stiffen, even slightly impeding his circulation of Yuan Energy.

 

“Demon Subduing Great Saint… after so many years, to think that this level of pressure still remains.”

 

After inwardly marvelling, excitement surged in Qin Yichen’s eyes. Circulating his Yuan Energy, he rapidly advanced through the passageway.
