198: Chapter 197 Fifty Custom-Made [Tianhe Navy] Soldiers Are Ready!!

Shocked, Sun Po continued to ask: "What about the [emperor yus ding] inside [Tianhe Budu]?

Could it be that General Xiang found it too light when lifting it? Feeling like a fake?"

[Overlord Xiang Yu] instead said: "Not so, the world originally had nine continents, but now only five remain, yet the subordinate found that although this [emperor yus ding] of [Tianhe Budu] is similarly closely connected to the fortune of the mountains and rivers of a continent, this continent is not any continent in the present world, nor even any continent in the past nine continents.

Therefore, the subordinate guessed that this [emperor yus ding] is not an item of this realm."

Sun Po understood, but didn't expect it to be for this reason. He didn't expect that when the [mod loading system] made the [emperor yus ding] MOD, it actually didn't just reference the [emperor yus ding] in his mind, or rather not just the [emperor yus ding] in his mind, but referenced the form of the [emperor yus ding] in this realm.

But what about this connection to the fortune of a continent's mountains and rivers? And which continent is it with?

Sun Po only knew that China on Earth where he lived in his previous life has had the saying of the Nine Provinces since ancient times, which are Qing, Ji, You, Liang, Yong, Chong, Xu, Yang, and Yu. He just didn't know which nine provinces the nine provinces of this world were?

He asked again: "Then does General Xiang know why only five of the world's nine continents remain? What about the other four continents? Have they sunk?"

In his previous life, he had heard similar theories about continent sinking, and now he couldn't help thinking in this direction.

[Overlord Xiang Yu] was stunned for a moment and said: "Continent sinking? Such a novel theory, but the subordinate is also unclear about this."

But immediately afterwards, Sun Po felt something was wrong. If [Overlord Xiang Yu] truly had the power to easily shake the land of a continent, then his current performance was a bit too weak.

After all, that was the weight of a truly continental land; it was simply unimaginable.

If he had such power, let alone orange cards, even golden cards couldn't stop [Overlord Xiang Yu].

But upon hearing Sun Po's doubts, [Overlord Xiang Yu] said: "My Lord's eyes are like torches. The power to shake a continent is too formidable. Even the subordinate's body during lifetime could not fully bear this power, and could only barely control it through the inheritance of the Tyrant. My Lord has also seen the projection of the demon god behind the subordinate when the subordinate cast the descent of the tyrant realm, right?"

Sun Po nodded and said: "Seen it. A single glance is not enough to see its full picture; it can be called reaching the heavens and earth."

Naturally he remembered. In the [Jinshan Temple] secret realm, the two terrifying demon god projections behind [Overlord Xiang Yu] left a very deep impression on Sun Po.

Especially that blood-colored demon god projection representing the one named Tyrant, which was simply unimaginably huge to Sun Po.

[Overlord Xiang Yu] continued: "The reason why they are so huge is precisely because the subordinate's body is too weak at this time and cannot control too much power. The stronger the subordinate is, the more power can be controlled, and the more power can be controlled, the smaller the demon god projection summoned by the skill of the descent of the tyrant realm will be, until it completely disappears, and he will fully control the power of these two demon gods."

Sun Po thought to himself that these hidden traits were a bit too many; the skill description of the descent of the tyrant realm didn't say this much.

At the same time, Sun Po also understood somewhat and said: "So you lifting that [emperor yus ding] in [Tianhe Budu], including killing this [Armored Rock Boar King], can help you digest [Demon Gods Mighty Power] and that power of yours from lifetime that shook a continent?"

Sun Po looked at [Overlord Xiang Yu] with a strange look. This fellow's potential could no longer be described with words, and perhaps he hadn't even reached his peak when he committed suicide at [Wu River] in his lifetime. What a pity.

Previously, he had still worried that Wuzhiqi and [Overlord Xiang Yu] bickered all day long, and in case one day one side reached the upper limit of its potential, it would be suppressed by the other.

Now it seemed that neither of these two sparring partners was simple.

Wuzhiqi's supreme comprehension and the [Six-Eared Macaque] bloodline caused it to possess an overwhelming number of skills and extremely strong research capabilities. This fellow would churn out some perverted research achievements from time to time, such as this customized version of [Tianhe Naval Forces] featuring the [Qiankun Great Shift].

In many tricky situations, Wuzhiqi could always find different skills to solve them.

As for [Overlord Xiang Yu], his innate conditions were too superior. He didn't have Wuzhiqi's perverted comprehension, and he wasn't even a [deity card].

But he possessed the legacy of the ancient Chaos Three Thousand Demon Gods—and two of them at that.

That was power left over from the Chaos Era, which was even older than the Primeval Era. No one knew where his upper limit was, because Sun Po had not yet seen a second person possessing such power.

At the same time, he also possessed the bestowal of one of the Nine Cauldrons—that power to shake a continent.

This even resulted in the fact that even though his physical body had grown strong to this extent, and he possessed infinite growth traits like [Hating Heaven Without Handles] and [Hating Earth Without Rings], he still could not successfully control all the power contained within his body.

If other cards were growing stronger, then [Overlord Xiang Yu] was reviving. It was hard to imagine that even before reaching his level from his lifetime, he was already at the 9-star orange combat power, and during his lifetime he had not fully controlled all the power within his body.

If Wuzhiqi's comprehension was a mechanics-based cheat, then the almost infinite potential on [Overlord Xiang Yu] was perfect numerical value.

These two cards could act as old sparring partners for so long because they each had their own strengths, or rather, each had their own cheating methods.

[Overlord Xiang Yu], however, looked in a great mood and said: "Although I did not feel the weight of a continent's land when lifting the [emperor yus ding] in [Tianhe Budu], I know it is no different from the [emperor yus ding] I lifted in my lifetime; it likewise contains the fortune of a continent's mountains and rivers."

"It's just that My Lord possesses vast magical powers, allowing someone without sufficient fortune to lift it without triggering the weight of that continent's mountain and river fortune."

Sun Po felt a bit guilty. Vast magical powers? Me?

Fine, if you say I have vast magical powers, then I do. After all, the [mod loading system] is my exclusive talent; it having vast magical powers and me having vast magical powers are the same thing.

[Overlord Xiang Yu] did not notice Sun Po's guilt and continued: "Perhaps stones from other hills can be used to polish jade; gradually, the subordinate found that coming into contact with the [emperor yus ding] in this [Tianhe Budu] is immensely beneficial to the subordinate. Not only does it accelerate the speed of mastering [Demon Gods Mighty Power], but it can also slowly recover the power from lifetime that shook a continent. Therefore, the subordinate's strength has increased so greatly, and now having plundered a portion of this beast's strength and blood qi, I am one step closer to recovering my peak state and even fully controlling the power within my body."

Sun Po completely understood. To put it bluntly, [Overlord Xiang Yu] was very fierce in his lifetime, and after using a fitness equipment called [emperor yus ding], there was another burst of ox-like strength inside his body capable of throwing a continent to smash people.

But he never developed these bursts of ox-like strength from birth to death, and now that he turned into a card, he was even more of a weakling.

He happened to find a fitness equipment in his [Tianhe Budu] that was the same model as his previous life but a different brand, which could help him retrieve that ox-like strength of taking a continent to smash people in his lifetime, and could also accelerate the control of the other bursts of ox-like strength in his body.

To make it sound so complicated, wasn't it just saying that you are strong, and your strength will be even greater when lifting fitness equipment in the future?

However, complaining aside, [Overlord Xiang Yu]'s potential was no joke. Since killing this [Armored Rock Boar] was so suitable for his traits of [Hating Heaven Without Handles] and [Hating Earth Without Rings], it would be better to let him team up with the [Tianhe Naval Forces], with one responsible for killing and the other responsible for manipulation.

Now, the [Tianhe Naval Forces] Zhang Wuji had likewise played the newly resurrected [Armored Rock Boar King] in the palm of his hand. The big wild boar led a group of small wild boars, crashing into this one and then that one, crashing into each other from time to time until their bones broke and tendons snapped, only to be as good as new shortly after.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in Sun Po's heart.

"Master, fifty [Tianhe Naval Forces] should be enough to deal with all the [Armored Rock Boar]s in this forest. Next, this secret realm should not have much difficulty."

Before Sun Po could speak, the screen of the wrist watch automatically lit up, projecting one bloody image after another.

"Contestant [Sword Obsessed] has been eliminated!!"

"Contestant [Old Three Wu] has been eliminated!!"

"Contestant [Hattori Renxin] has been eliminated!!"

"Contestant [Halaso Nuxin] has been eliminated!!"

Sun Po was speechless.

Good news: ranking went up, to 19th place.

Bad news: only 19 people were left.

At this moment, outside the arena.

The contestants had reached the most intense life-and-death moment, yet Sun Po here stopped exploring as if on vacation, delaying in place for several hours.

——

At this time, there were only 19 people left in the entire tournament. Aside from Sun Po's battle screen, the quality of the monsters was getting higher and higher, and their numbers were also increasing.

It seemed that these monsters saw that many contestants were about to reach their limits, and more purple monsters that were previously unknown where they were hiding also rushed out.

Combined with the previous low-star orange monsters and a small number of high-star orange monsters, they formed an extremely terrifying monster frenzy.

The sword-eating swordsman [Sword Obsessed] looked at the broken sword in his hand, and was engulfed by the monsters with a look of relief in his eyes.

Yuan Zongli's countless giant beast and raptor projections, as well as the monstrous sea of blood behind him, could not block the terrifying monsters flashing with mechanical red light in front of him. He roared angrily like a trapped beast, but was ultimately blasted to death by beams of laser. Yet after the lasers passed, Yuan Zongli's body completely disappeared without a trace.

In Qin Wudao's screen, the sea surface was full of severed limbs of various aquatic creatures, but countless even larger and more terrifying aquatic creatures continued to surge forward.

The water tornado of that [Black Dragon] was no longer lethal enough against those monsters at this moment, and those monsters were about to completely surround the [Black Dragon] and Qin Wudao.

Qin Wudao's [Black Dragon] had not rested since entering the secret realm, and was already about to fail to hold on.

But Qin Wudao truly lived up to his name. While other contestants were already sweating profusely and jumping with anxiety, only at this moment did he truly begin to display his true edge.

The next second, a huge long strip-like black shadow appeared in Qin Wudao's screen. It looked like a dragon, but it was square and overly rigid.

When this long strip-like black shadow was fully revealed, completely surrounding Qin Wudao and the [Black Dragon], everyone could finally see clearly.

That was an extremely long and majestic building constructed from bricks and stones. The hundred-meter-long [Black Dragon] was as small as a larva in front of it.

This building was like a living long dragon, surrounding Qin Wudao like this, slowly rotating.

It looked ancient, worn, huge, and very dilapidated, as if it would collapse in the next second.

But all those monsters were unable to advance an inch the moment they came into contact with it, stubbornly unable to cross this huge building by a single step. If Sun Po were here, he would definitely be able to recognize this building immediately.

Black Pharaoh had also summoned his first card at this time, which was a huge Sphinx stone statue of orange quality.

Black Pharaoh stood on top of the Sphinx stone statue, holding his staff high, and the earth-yellow crystal at the top of the staff emitted a more dazzling light.

The range of the earth-yellow sandstorm surrounding Black Pharaoh expanded dozens of times in an instant. Not only was the scale larger, but the wind force was also stronger. The golden-yellow sun disc behind him also rose above the Sphinx stone statue, and the blood of those monsters blown into mummies by the sandstorm flew into the high sky, converging toward the center of the golden disc, looking extremely intimidating.

"What is this? Something seems to be coming out of the big disc behind him."

Li Tiance was also unable to hide his strength any longer at this moment. Countless purple-tier monsters, more than a hundred low-star orange monsters, and a dozen high-star orange monsters meant it was truly not the time to hide his strength anymore.

In front of the magma abyss, the huge [Xuanwu Gate] and the pavilions and terraces behind it rose from the ground.

Dense crimson-red demon-like monsters flapped their wings and lunged toward this huge [Xuanwu Gate].

The next second, eight hundred identical black-faced men holding double maces and wearing embroidered dark armor poured out from the door.

They were as if they had been copied, not only with identical actions, but even their voices and expressions were completely indistinguishable.

"Clang, clang, clang!!!"

Eight hundred pairs of long maces collided, stirring up intense buzzing sounds.

Li Tiance stood on top of the three large characters [Xuanwu Gate] on the lintel, raising his golden bow and white arrow, and said: "Yuchi, help me exterminate the monsters!!"

The audience off the stage were watching the screens of contestants they originally favored turn bloody one by one, and their discussions became increasingly intense.

"Yuan Zongli is truly a pity, just dying like this? Can the [Yuan Family] let it rest?"

"He is indeed unlucky, encountering these monsters that seem like old-era technology. His entire skill set was countered to death, and the cards in his hand were not good at dealing with such monsters."

"My evaluation is that he is not as poised as the sword-eating brother."

"Heh, why don't you go up and try?"

The discussion about Black Pharaoh and Qin Wudao was still the highest. "Black Pharaoh is truly unfathomable; it's only at this stage that he is barely forced to reveal one card."

"Qin Wudao is even more cheap. Is this huge long wall of his a card? Isn't this too cheap? Directly turning on invincibility?"

"It seems to be Qin Wudao's exclusive talent. The [Qin Family] Dragon, did you think it was joking with you?"

Besides these two, the ones with the highest discussion were undoubtedly Sun Po and Li Tiance.
