775: Chapter 776?! There's another one!

The faces of the powerhouses at the Peak of the pyramid were already grim enough to drip water.

Mo Cha's body was surrounded by boiling demonic flames, his crimson eyes were bloodshot, and nine Demonic Chains danced frantically, letting out ear-piercing shrieks.

The Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed was close at hand, yet he had been obstructed time and again; his madness was on the verge of spiraling out of control.

Xuan Yi was hidden within the Void Realm, his aura ethereal and hard to detect. His venomous eyes were locked firmly onto Xiao Ruobai; now that his killing blow had been thwarted, his killing intent had reached its Peak.

Ao Zhan's Dragon Might was vast, his Dragon pupils surged like clouds and wind, and the Dragon Qi around him roared faintly as he waited for an Opportunity to move.

Huang Jiutian, the Daoist Son of Myriad Phenomena, Luo Shenyue, and others had varying expressions, ranging from solemnity and suspicion to greed.

Their gazes scanned back and forth between the top figures in the field, each with their own calculations.

At the outermost edge of the crowd, Xia Wudao's eyes flickered before he suddenly rushed out, pointing at Xiao Ruobai's group and roaring hoarsely:

"The Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed is right before our eyes! This is a Heaven-Defying Opportunity that only appears once in an eternity!!"

"Li Xuanfeng and Shi Jingxian have already been tied up! Take them down and we shall share the dao seed!"

"What are you waiting for? Attack together! Seize the dao seed and prove the Immortal Path!"

The crowd grew restless, and killing intent boiled frantically like a tsunami!

The roars were like blades cutting through the dead silence. The Prodigies, completely ignited by greed and ferocity, could no longer suppress the agitation in their hearts.

Mo Cha's crimson eyes shot forth a fierce light, and the nine Demonic Chains danced like dragons and snakes, being the first to tear through the air and pounce forward!

"The dao seed is mine! Those who stand in my way shall die!"

A group of demonic cultivators followed closely behind, their Devilish Qi rolling like a tide and their Evil Qi soaring to the heavens.

The other Prodigies no longer hesitated. Divine light, Magic Treasures, and Bloodline Power erupted all at once, as a dense onslaught crushed forward like a world-destroying torrent!

"Finally willing to make a move."

Xiao Ruobai's gaze turned cold as the War God Halberd swept through the air, its pale golden radiance surging in all directions.

"Fight!"

Fang Hanyu, Mo Yu, and Ling Xi stepped forward simultaneously, while Wang Xiaopang formed a hand seal, causing the light of Talismans to spread across the sky.

The flames of war that had just subsided instantly exploded with violence once more!

Upon the cliff, the sounds of slaughter shook the heavens!

Immortal light and demonic fire collided, Sword Qi and Divine Abilities boomed, and the entire cliff trembled violently as if it would collapse at any moment.

Ji Qingyi's moon-white gown fluttered even without wind, and clear moonlight surrounded her body.

She was in no hurry to join the melee; her gaze remained indifferent as she scanned the entire battlefield, particularly staring at that patch of deathly silent Void Realm, never leaving Xiao Ruobai's side for a moment.

Taiyin Divine Power quietly circulated, ready at any time to block Xuan Yi's hidden assassination strike.

At the edge of the battlefield, Shen Jinghong watched the boiling battle and scanned the entire field.

Senior Brother Li Xuanfeng's Sword Qi was as imposing as a mountain, steadily blocking all the killing moves of the Little Sword Emperor, while that madman Shi Jingxian was fighting Gu Shitian with such intensity that the ground shook.

The Yaochi Holy Master was enveloped in moonlight at the core, constantly alert to the snake-like killing intent of Xuan Yi in the shadows, her Taiyin Power silently spreading and freezing all possibilities of concealment.

Further out, several fellow disciples including Mu Chenyu, Su Qingyuan, Yun Qingjue, Lin Xiaowan, and Lu Chenyu had solemn auras.

Their positions seemed casual, but in reality, they had already locked down several key entry angles, ensuring they could respond to any sudden situation immediately.

It was stable.

Shen Jinghong instantly made a judgment in her heart; this battle before her would not end anytime soon.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she unobtrusively nudged Lin Mochen with her elbow, who was also standing silently nearby with his aura concealed.

Lin Mochen's aura was restrained as he silently watched the battlefield. Sensing Shen Jinghong's touch, he turned his head slightly with a questioning look in his eyes.

Shen Jinghong sent a secret transmission:

"Senior Brother Lin, it's getting lively here, and Senior Brother Mu and the others are watching. This fight won't end anytime soon, so why don't we...?"

Lin Mochen's eyes brightened slightly, and the corner of his mouth moved almost imperceptibly as his gaze swept over the heavenly pride list glowing in the sky.

He then quickly scanned several directions deep within the Ancient Plains where he had already noticed abnormal spiritual power fluctuations; there was a high probability that many fat sheep were hidden there.

Right now, the top Prodigies were all concentrated here, so what were they waiting for?

"Let's go."

The two exchanged a look; no more words were needed as they shared a tacit understanding.

With extreme tacit understanding, they restrained all their auras and silently merged into the shadows outside the turbulence, vanishing into the depths of the Ancient Plains in an instant.

At the edge of the main battlefield, a lonely figure stood quietly.

It was the Youth with the Saber on His Back.

Dressed in black with a long blade on his back, he had not made a move from beginning to end, merely standing there like an outsider, quietly watching everything in the field.

His gaze did not fall on the fiercely fighting Li Xuanfeng or Ling Guzhou, nor did it fall on that much-anticipated Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed; instead, it remained fixed on Xiao Ruobai.

The scenes of his previous exchange with Xiao Ruobai flashed through his mind.

Xiao Ruobai's crushing punch, the terror of his War God Power, the resilience of his Dao Heart, and his unfathomable strength had left an extremely deep impression on him.

He was very clear about Xiao Ruobai's true strength.

That was an opponent who hid his strength deeply and possessed a terrifyingly profound foundation; he was by no means as simple as he appeared on the surface.

Now, Xiao Ruobai was protected by three great powerhouses: Ji Qingyi, Li Xuanfeng, and Shi Jingxian.

Behind him was also a group of experts including Mo Yu, Azure Rakshasa, and Sword White Robe; the strength of this lineup could be described as terrifying.

Even if all the Prodigies present joined forces to attack, taking them down would inevitably require paying an extremely heavy price, ultimately resulting in both sides suffering losses.

And there was only one Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed; even if they won in the end, who would get it?

This struggle had no meaning from the very beginning.

Rather than wasting time here, consuming cultivation, or even losing one's life, it was better to leave early and find one's own Opportunity.

The Youth with the Saber on His Back was silent for a moment, his eyes calm and without ripples; he did not hesitate and felt no lingering attachment.

He turned and stepped into the Void Realm, his figure dissipating directly as he completely withdrew from this competition that had no chance of victory.

This scene happened to fall into the eyes of Huang Jiutian and the Daoist Son of Myriad Phenomena.

Huang Jiutian, who possessed the True Phoenix Bloodline, was a top existence on the heavenly pride list with an unfathomable cultivation.

He had been watching the Youth with the Saber on His Back as well as the Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed, originally thinking that the Youth with the Saber on His Back would be one of the strongest competitors.

But now, he had actually given up?

That was a Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed, an Opportunity that only appeared once in an eternity, yet he just gave it up like that?

Beside him, the Daoist Son of Myriad Phenomena, wearing an Eight Trigrams Daoist Robe, looked solemn with his brows tightly furrowed, his heart also churning with stormy waves.

He was very clear about the Youth with the Saber on His Back's strength; it was not a bit weaker than his own, perhaps even a fraction stronger. Such a powerhouse had actually taken the initiative to give up the struggle.

But the Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed was right before them, and the Opportunity to ascend to the heavens in a single step was close at hand; they truly could not bear to give up just like that.

Their gazes shifted back and forth between the battlefield and the Void Realm. A ruthless look appeared in their eyes, their auras quietly tensed, and as they slightly moved their feet, they were about to strike!

Suddenly!

Huang Jiutian and the Daoist Son of Myriad Phenomena both stiffened simultaneously, their expressions changed drastically, and their pupils constricted violently.

They felt an aura that wasn't overbearing, yet was exceptionally precise, silently entangling them.

That aura was not the least bit weaker than theirs; as long as they dared to make any move to attack Xiao Ruobai or snatch the Quasi-Immortal Emperor dao seed, that aura would strike out resolutely in the next instant!

Not far away, Ao Zhan's Dragon Might rippled slightly as he narrowed his golden eyes, his expression also darkening slightly.

He also clearly perceived that two formidable auras had quietly locked onto his position.

Though they were only in the Immortal King Realm, they were incredibly refined, each strand like a divine sword tempered a thousand times over—sharp and steady.

Despite being in the Immortal King Realm, they could emit a sense of pressure that even an Immortal Sovereign like him dared not underestimate.

Huang Jiutian: "..."

The Daoist Son of Myriad Phenomena: "..."

Ao Zhan: "..."

The few of them froze on the spot, not because they were afraid they couldn't win.

It was... how are there still more?!

Ji Qingyi, Li Xuanfeng, and Shi Jingxian were already terrifying enough, but now more figures whose auras were not the least bit weaker than theirs had emerged from the shadows?

The corner of the Daoist Son of Myriad Phenomena's mouth twitched slightly, and only one thought flashed frantically in his mind:

Is this a Nest of Prodigies?!
