362: Chapter 362 Ten Scrolls, a Fierce Battle for Them

Hun Tiandi's expression turned cold, and he let out a thunderous snort, forcibly suppressing his restless King Qi.

At this moment, he looked up and watched the figures rushing toward the Ancient Hall. He moved forward at a steady pace, and upon entering, he saw many figures gathered in the main hall.

Inside the Ancient Hall!

At this time, everyone's eyes were fixed on the light clusters suspended in mid-air. Inside the light clusters were scrolls, each emitting a powerful aura.

As the light gradually dimmed, the ten light clusters trembled violently, followed by a burst of blinding radiance.

The scrolls within the light transformed into streaks of light, darting about wildly.

The chaotic movement of the scrolls instantly ignited the entire hall, sending it into a frenzy.

Simultaneously, the crowd, who had long been impatient and hungry for them, chased after the scrolls, and the scene instantly fell into chaos.

The sculptures on both sides burst open, and their blood-red eyes snapped open, releasing a dense slaughterous aura that permeated the entire area.

Boom...

The originally quiet Ancient Hall erupted like a hundred thousand tons of explosives as everyone began to slaughter one another.

Swoosh...

Ten beams of light of various colors drew lines through the air. Peering through the light, one could see the ancient aura emanating from the scrolls.

The aura spreading from the scrolls turned the eyes of the chasing experts blood-red.

"A Heaven Rank Dou Skill has appeared!"

As the roar fell, powerful surges of Dou Qi erupted within the Ancient Hall, and figures dashed forward like magical beasts in a frenzy.

They desperately lunged toward those scrolls.

However, the ten scrolls seemed to possess a level of sentience; they darted through the air, evading the grasping hands.

Splurt!

Densely packed figures crisscrossed and clashed in mid-air. One figure after another fell, spitting out blood and crashing heavily onto the ground.

The sounds were like muffled thunder, making the observers' hearts pound with fear.

These detestable fellows were truly striking with deadly intent.

"Wait a bit longer!" the Blood Shadow Clone said in a low voice. The situation had already spiraled out of control; anyone who made a move now would become a target.

He had to speak up to stop Mei Niang and the others who were about to act.

Behind him, Yan Xing and the others nodded upon hearing this, their eyes fixed on the figures fighting in mid-air. Mei Niang asked indifferently, "Can you tell which one is the Heaven Rank Dou Skill?"

The Blood Shadow Clone shook his head and said softly, "I can't tell. The auras of these ten scrolls are nearly identical; none of them are likely to be ordinary items. As for which one is a Heaven Rank Dou Skill or a Cultivation Method, it can only depend on luck!"

However, it wouldn't be easy to claim one.

The original Hun Tiandi stood outside the hall, releasing his soul perception. These ten scrolls contained formidable energy.

It was likely that the Dragon Tribe ancestors who left these treasures behind would not let people obtain them so easily.

"Sigh, as expected of ruins left by Dragon Tribe experts. Such powerful Cultivation Methods or Dou Techniques are things that even some first-rate forces might not possess!"

"Yet here, they are placed so casually, and in such great numbers!"

Hun Tiandi scanned the scene but did not make a move; this was not something he could participate in.

He had a suspicion in his heart and didn't know if it would come true. He quietly circulated the Purple Dragon King Qi within his body, and wisps of a mysterious current were released from him.

They spread toward the main hall.

Ah...

Suddenly, inside the Ancient Hall, a person near a sculpture let out a miserable scream as his chest was pierced by a blood-red palm, blood spraying everywhere.

It turned out the stone statues had revived, their bodies filled with a dense slaughterous aura.

They directly attacked anyone who came near them. Their strength was terrifying, all at the Dou Zun level, with an overwhelming momentum.

In the blink of an eye, the area within a hundred meters of the stone statues was stained dark red with blood, and a thick scent of gore filled the air, striking fear into everyone's hearts.

"Damn it, the stone statues have awakened?"

Hun Tiandi furrowed his brows. As expected, it wasn't simple. The Dragon Tribe ancestors had left stone statues to guard the place; how could their strength be weak? They were Dou Zun puppets.

These were as powerful as the Human Puppet he had encountered back when he met his teacher.

Except for some major forces, others simply couldn't resist them. After a few exchanges, they were directly killed!

This scene made the individuals and forces who had previously planned to reap the benefits of the conflict unable to stay out of it.

The current situation was that anyone who approached a scroll would not only be attacked by a group of people but also by the stone statues.

The moment someone obtained a scroll, before they could even see it clearly, they were killed!

Swoosh!

While everyone was staring each other down, the Purple Dragon King Qi that Hun Tiandi had activated had already spread into the Ancient Hall. Suddenly, a scroll in mid-air began to hum and tremble.

As if sensing something familiar, it turned into a streak of light and flew toward Hun Tiandi.

This shocking scene left everyone present dumbfounded.

"The scroll is choosing its master? How is that possible..." Watching the scroll fly toward Hun Tiandi, Miss Xiao Yuer moved, intending to intercept it.

The moment she struck, the scroll automatically veered off, dodging Miss Xiao Yuer's palm print.

Jie jie jie!

Hun Tiandi gave a wicked smile as he grabbed the scroll in his palm, retracted his Purple Dragon King Qi, and then turned to dash toward the distant deep forest.

If he didn't leave now, when would he!

He disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye. Miss Xiao Yuer said angrily, "Bastard! For some reason, I felt a familiar aura!"

Mei Niang looked at the departing figure and fell into deep thought.

"The strength of these stone statues is at the Dou Zun level. If anyone wants to fight for the scrolls, feel free to do so yourselves!"

"Success or failure depends entirely on yourselves. If you are lucky enough to get a scroll, it belongs to you!"

The Blood Shadow Clone said in a deep voice, showing no intention of intervening, and even stepped back.

He wasn't lacking in Cultivation Methods or Dou Techniques... If it weren't for the stone statues, he might have joined the fray.

Yan Xing, Liu Ling, and the others looked at each other and tacitly chose to retreat.

Dou Techniques and Cultivation Methods were important, but their lives were more precious!

Kill!

But the people in the Ancient Hall had long been bewitched by the Heaven Rank Dou Skill and had lost their reason, no longer caring about status or strength.

They showed no mercy in their attacks.

Mu Qingluan took action, fighting for a scroll. Amidst the siege, using her sharp movement technique, she actually managed to snatch a scroll. Without time to inspect it, she gripped it tightly in her hand.

The light dissipated, revealing an emerald green scroll, which she then placed into her storage ring.

She dashed out of the Ancient Hall—a smart choice. If she struck again, she would surely become the target of everyone's siege.

"Get lost!"

Miss Xiao Yuer shouted sharply, pale green flames surging around her body and condensing into a roaring flame tiger. She grabbed a crimson scroll.

It was clearly of the fire attribute, perfectly suited for Miss Xiao Yuer.

Because of the intimidation from her previous use of the Five-Colored Fire Lotus, no one fought her for it, and she easily obtained the scroll. The light faded, and she stored it in her storage ring.

As the slaughter continued, the Woman in Blue and the red-robed old man each snatched a scroll and retreated from the Ancient Hall.

The remaining scrolls were also obtained by those with great fortune.

After exiting the Ancient Hall, strangely, the stone statues stopped their pursuit, as if they could only move within the hall.

Only a blood-stained land remained, where many experts had their souls buried.

On the Fighting Qi Continent, the law of survival was just this cruel; if you don't fight, you won't become an expert, but fighting might cost you your life.

After everyone left the Ancient Hall, they discovered a longbow and nine long arrows placed in the center of the hall, yet they emitted no aura at all.

They looked like mere decorations.

However, since they were placed in the Ancient Hall by Dragon Tribe ancestors, they were likely not simple. But now, twelve stone statues stood tall in the hall.

The slaughterous aura was like a tide, emitting a faint red glow.

Yet no one dared to barge in.
