Chapter 1069: Chapter 1068: The Man in Azure Robes
The only thing that could resonate with the Thunder Emperor Order he possessed, apart from the Flame Emperor Order, what else could it be?
Above the altar, at the moment the Flame Gate formed, an extremely vast ancient surge suddenly transmitted from that gate.
"What could possibly be inside that possesses such a terrifying surge?"
Some warriors looked at that flame portal in shock, murmuring to themselves.
"It’s estimated that there must be some ancient treasures inside, right?"
One warrior’s eyes sparkled with excitement, thinking that if he could obtain the treasures inside, his power would surely spike and reach a brand new realm.
"Go!"
At the instant the flame portal appeared, Huangfu Qi and the Hook-Nosed Elder swiftly dashed out. Following them, the Azure Dragon Family and the Ice and Fire Dual Swords rushed toward the flame portal at their fastest speeds.
However, just as they were about to approach the flame portal, a cyan figure unexpectedly appeared in front of the portal.
Upon seeing this unexpected figure, everyone was shocked and quickly halted, having already suffered enough. Faced with such a situation, they dared not recklessly charge forward.
"The place beyond is not a realm you are qualified to step into. You may leave now."
The cyan figure appeared with a gentle voice spreading out, carrying an irresistible tone.
"Who do you think you are, daring to obstruct our treasure hunting!"
The sudden cyan figure startled Huangfu Qi and the others, but upon hearing these words, they were filled with rage, instantly numerous experts attacking fiercely at the cyan figure.
Facing such fierce attacks, the cyan figure didn’t flinch in the slightest, raising his head slightly, revealing a masked face from which cold auras emanated from his eyes.
He raised his right hand, forming a sword finger, as the azure treasure sword behind him automatically unsheathed, suddenly splitting into hundreds of flying swords in the process!
Every offensive collapsed at the instant of contact with those flying swords.
"It’s you!"
Seeing this scene, the Hook-Nosed Elder’s expression drastically changed, this cyan figure was the mysterious expert who wielded the controlling gift of hundred swords before. He should have been cautious then, never expecting him to appear now!
However, just as his voice fell, a flying sword struck him, sending his body flying embarrassingly backward. This time, whether it was the Ice and Fire Dual Swords or Elder Bai from the Azure Dragon Family or Murong Qingcheng, they were all effortlessly repelled by those azure flying swords.
All the experts were somewhat dumbfounded at this moment, wondering where this fellow came from with such horrifying strength?
With a casual gesture, he sent all the experts here flying, so much so that even a Senior Half-Saint was no match for him, just how formidable was this individual’s strength? What was going on, wasn’t it said that Saints couldn’t enter?
The Saints from various aristocratic families were all blocked outside this cave mansion, yet this person evidently possessed Saint-level strength, how did he get in?
Inside the hall, chaos unfolded as Huangfu Qi, Murong Qingcheng, and the Ice and Fire Dual Swords stabilized themselves, then looked at the cyan figure with fear.
Ling Chen’s gaze also fell on this cyan figure. He didn’t know why, but from this cyan figure, he could sense a faint familiarity.
This cyan figure’s aura was quite similar to someone Ling Chen had encountered before, and indeed, that person was the Master of Cyan Robe Association.
However, the Master of Cyan Robe Association’s strength was far from comparable to the person before him.
The mysterious expert who rescued him earlier was clearly this person, but why did this person rescue him?
"Your Excellency, who might you be? This cave mansion is the target of our Huangfu Clan and Azure Dragon Family; are you intending to feud with our two families?" the Hook-Nosed Elder said fiercely.
Despite being extremely dissatisfied, he dared not confront him alone, so he dragged in the Azure Dragon Family, even if the opponent was a Saint, they couldn’t disregard the Azure Dragon Family, right?
"This cave mansion was opened jointly by our various forces, yet now Your Excellency is preventing us from entering, isn’t it overly domineering?" Murong Qingcheng also frowned, unwilling to halt here.
"The things inside aren’t for you to touch, and entering recklessly will only send you to your death."
A very calm voice came from beneath the cyan mask of the swordsman in cyan robes.
"Really? We can handle our own lives, and hopefully, Your Excellency won’t obstruct us, allowing us to enter, how about it?"
Huangfu Qi remained persistent.
"Get lost when told, so much nonsense."
The swordsman in cyan robes’ tone turned much colder, "You have ten breaths to leave here, or else just leave your life behind!"
As soon as the words fell, the flying swords around the swordsman in cyan robes started spinning, the astonishing blades aimed at everyone, making them feel as though their necks were severed, terrifyingly unnerved by the horrifying power that none could withstand.
This swordsman in cyan robes was far superior to anyone here.
Even if they joined forces, there was no chance of victory.
"Damn it!"
The Hook-Nosed Elder was utterly gloomy, everyone felt extremely depressed; they had overcome numerous trials and dangers to reach here, on the brink of entering the ultimate treasure hunting ground, unexpectedly to be stopped halfway by the swordsman in cyan robes.
But faced with this situation, who dared defy the swordsman in cyan robes?
"Five breaths!"
The swordsman in cyan robes’ gaze was like steel needles, chilling wherever it passed, leaving everyone no doubt that when time was up, he would unleash a slaughter.
"Go!"
The Hook-Nosed Elder waved to the Huangfu Clan, despite his reluctance, he dared not fight the swordsman in cyan robes, so he chose to leave.
Not only him, Murong Qingcheng, the Azure Dragon Family, Ice and Fire Dual Swords, they all chose to leave, each suppressing their unwillingness, turning to leave the island.
Among them, naturally, was Ling Chen.
At this time, Ling Chen was also rather disappointed. Even though he was desperate for the Flame Emperor Order, this towering figure’s strength was overwhelming, far beyond what he could handle alone. Even those Saint families had retreated one by one, what could a lone man like him do?
"Boy, stay."
Just as Ling Chen was about to leave with the others, suddenly, the swordsman in cyan robes’ voice called out.
"Hmm?"
Ling Chen abruptly stiffened, hesitated before turning around, face showing surprise, "Senior? You called me?"
"Mm, you come in with me."
The swordsman in cyan robes nodded, speaking calmly.
Upon hearing this, Ling Chen’s eyes immediately filled with joy, not knowing why the swordsman in cyan robes wanted him inside the Fiery Region. However, entering the Fiery Region meant he had a chance to obtain the Flame Emperor Order, even if only a glimmer of hope!
"Alright!"
Therefore, when the words of the swordsman in cyan robes fell, Ling Chen immediately nodded without hesitation, agreeing.
