186: Chapter 186 Nine Dragons Fangtian Ancient Jade

This was a conspiracy set up by Xuan Ming, a certain-kill trap aimed at Hun Tiandi.

But could the result truly be as he wished?

Xuan Ming cleverly set a life-and-death trap, and Hun Tiandi stepped into it fearlessly and calmly; the ending would be marked by someone's lowered eyes and tears, and someone's sorrowful song.

In the small courtyard, Lei Xuanji and the others dispersed, while Liu Ling and Yan Xing remained, looking at Hun Tiandi uneasily.

"Is something the matter?" Hun Tiandi said indifferently.

"Reporting to Lord, your subordinate has caused trouble..." Liu Ling spoke slowly, informing him of everything that had happened during the rank-seven high-grade Alchemist assessment, including the killing of the Qiu Family members.

"You did well..." Hun Tiandi smiled slightly and waved his hand for Liu Ling and the other to leave.

Hun Tiandi returned to his room, and Elder Dan floated out of the purple ring, speaking slowly.

"Young Master Yun, you're going to Tianmen Mountain. Why were you so excited to hear the dragon roar nine times?" Elder Dan's sharp eyes held a hint of curiosity.

"Hahaha, Teacher, this time the nine dragon roars at Tianmen Mountain signify the appearance of a true treasure, which concerns the foundation of my future. That treasure might be useless to others, but it will provide me with significant assistance."

"No matter if the path ahead is an abyss or a nether sea, I must go."

Hun Tiandi slowly clenched his fist, extremely determined.

"Oh?" Elder Dan questioned, then widened his eyes. Knowing Hun Tiandi, for him to be so cautious, this treasure must be worth a fortune.

"nine dragon fangtian ancient jade!" Hun Tiandi said with a solemn expression.

"nine dragon fangtian ancient jade? What is that? Is it more precious than the Peerless Jade Embryo you obtained in the Fallen God Stream?"

Elder Dan frowned, clearly unaware of the value of both treasures.

Hun Tiandi looked at Elder Dan and smiled slightly. This nine dragon fangtian ancient jade was something he had noted down to search for when he obtained the Heavenly Silkworm Dragon Emperor's Method of the Imperial Dynasty.

Naturally, ordinary people would not be able to recognize it.

Elder Dan was somewhat puzzled, his aged eyes looking at Hun Tiandi with a touch of gratification in his heart.

Hun Tiandi sat cross-legged in quiet cultivation, waiting for tomorrow at Tianmen Mountain. This was a battle of life and death; it would depend on who was more skilled.

The night shimmered, and silver starlight fell upon Dan City in dots, twinkling and looking quite brilliant.

With a flip of his hand, he took out the purple heart barrier-breaking wine and gulped it down. His Dou Qi enveloped the energy of the spiritual wine, dispersing it into his limbs and bones, constantly circulating.

Streams of spiritual wine energy were refined into Dou Qi and poured into the vortex Dou Crystal.

Everything was silent.

The Qiu Family.

In a spacious manor's magnificent hall, the deceased middle-aged man lay there while the Qiu Family elders glared with righteous indignation.

"Patriarch, this rank-seven high-grade Alchemist named Liu Ling is too arrogant. He must be killed!"

"Indeed, if we don't avenge this, the prestige of our Pill Tower's five great families will be lost..."

"Qiu Yue, tell us about the scene at that time?" A white-bearded old man looked at the Pink-robed Girl with a serious face.

Under the Pink-robed Girl's narration, the high-level leadership of the Qiu Family finally understood the situation clearly.

"Patriarch, I request to send out the clan's elites to kill Liu Ling!"

"Exactly, if we don't pull out the grass by its roots, it will bring endless trouble to the Qiu Family!"

The Qiu Family elders in the hall discussed heatedly, their murderous intent surging as if they wanted to avenge the fallen Qiu Family elder.

"Order the Fifth Elder to lead the second squad of elites to kill Liu Ling..."

The Qiu Family Patriarch, about fifty years old, spoke coldly. The Fifth Elder then took the order and left.

The pink-robed woman, Qiu Yue, felt anxious. The Fifth Elder was so arrogant; the outcome would definitely not be as desired.

A hint of despair appeared on her fair face; once a rank-seven high-grade Alchemist was provoked, it would not end well regardless of how one looked at it.

Meanwhile, the Bai Family, Dan Family, Cao Family, and Ye Family—the four great families—were all discussing. The Dan Family and Ye Family did not intend to take action, adopting a wait-and-see attitude.

The positions of the five great elders of the Pill Tower concerned the face of the Pill Tower.

Even the Qiu Family sent experts to the Pill Tower for help. The target this time was a madman who dared to kill someone in the assessment area.

The power behind him must not be simple.

This time, with the Tianyin Sect's Xuan Ming setting the trap and joining forces with the Qiu Family, they had laid a life-and-death trap. It remained to be seen who would be more skilled.

In the small courtyard, Hun Tiandi adjusted his breathing, his mind racing. Based on the Blood God Child's intelligence, he already knew that Tianmen Mountain was a death trap.

Yet he was still willing to enter. When Hun Tiandi judged the vibration of the nine dragon roars, he had already confirmed that this time in Tianmen Mountain...

...there was a treasure he needed. It just depended on who could win.

In Dan City, after the anomaly at Tianmen Mountain, many experts showed excitement. If they could obtain a rare treasure, they might be able to shake the Central Plains.

Among the crowd, powerful human experts turned into streaks of light and sped away. At this moment, Tianmen Mountain became a place of gathering storms.

"Qianyou, don't show yourself this time. Involving the Pill Tower's five great families will have an impact on you."

The next day, Hun Tiandi stood with his hands behind his back in the small courtyard. After everyone appeared, he spoke indifferently.

"You... don't need my help?" Feng Qianyou asked in confusion.

"I do, but as the Holy Maiden of the Pill Tower, your identity is too sensitive..." Hun Tiandi said calmly.

"Sister Qianyou, this operation at Tianmen Mountain is a trap. As a person of the Pill Tower, it's better for you to leave."

Lei Xuanji, who was beside Hun Tiandi, pressed her full curves against his arm, her chest pressed into an extremely distorted shape.

Seemingly provoking Feng Qianyou, Lei Xuanji deliberately baited her.

"Liu Ling and Yan Xing, you two protect General Ye Wudi and his sister. I will handle the rest personally..."

Hun Tiandi spoke indifferently, turning his head to look at the two.

"Yes, Lord!" Liu Ling and the other bowed respectfully.

Having arranged everything, Hun Tiandi waved his sleeve and turned to leave the small courtyard. On the crowded street, he took a deep breath.

His keen soul power sensed unfriendly gazes watching him from all directions.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth; how could he not know he was being tailed?

In Dan City, only two parties held hostility toward Hun Tiandi: the Qiu Family, one of the five great families, and the top-tier power, the Tianyin Sect.

However, Hun Tiandi did not regret it. Not to mention provoking these two forces, even if it were the five great families and the Pill Tower, he would not retreat in the slightest.

"Young Master Yun, it seems quite a few people are full of hostility toward you..."

At this time, Elder Dan reminded him jokingly.

"They're just clowns. If they dare to provoke me openly, I'll kill them all."

Hun Tiandi grinned and then stopped paying attention, walking toward the distance.

"Go report to the Young Sect Leader, Yun Tian has come out." Not far away, a cold voice sounded, speaking to a servant nearby.

After one figure left, he followed closely behind.

In fact, behind him, unknown to him, a black-haired youth was also following very covertly.

Even the Qiu Family members hurried back to report to their Patriarch that Liu Ling was leaving Dan City. For a moment, the atmosphere in Dan City became eerie.

"Reporting to the Patriarch, Liu Ling has left the courtyard and is heading outside Dan City..."

The servant reported.

"Fifth Elder, set out! The prestige of my Qiu Family must not be insulted!" the Qiu Family Patriarch said coldly, his gaze fixed on the space ahead of Hun Tiandi.

"Yes, Patriarch!" The Fifth Elder smiled cruelly and then left the Qiu Family.

On the bustling street, Hun Tiandi looked calm with a hint of a smile, exclaiming in his heart.

"nine dragon fangtian ancient jade, this Emperor is coming..."
