Chapter 1732: Chapter 1729: Seven Stone Platforms!
Seeing Li Chen use thunderous means to ruthlessly kill Mo Qing, Snow Princess and Yans Ziyi, Liuu Kewei quickly gathered around.
Snow Princess looked at Li Chen and asked, "Li Chen, how come you’re here?"
Li Chen shrugged and casually retorted, "You can be here, why can’t I?"
Hearing Li Chen’s response, Snow Princess was rendered speechless.
"I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t accompany you. Be careful!"
After speaking, Li Chen ignored Snow Princess and the other two women, transforming into a streak of light, darting towards the depths of the palace.
Seeing Li Chen’s indifferent manner, Snow Princess stomped her feet in anger, gritting her teeth, "Hmph, what’s so great about him, acting so aloof?"
Liuu Kewei blinked her bright eyes and asked, "Holy Daughter, what should we do now?"
Snow Princess glanced at the fading figure of Li Chen and said, "Let’s follow and take a look!"
Liuu Kewei and Yans Ziyi exchanged looks, both nodding in agreement to Snow Princess’s suggestion.
Thus, the three women quickly pursued in the direction Li Chen had vanished.
Meanwhile, deep within the hall:
Mo Zhan, Zhuge Qingyun, Master Jingkong, and Li Mengjiao, among other Heavenly Pride, were fiercely battling the guards of the inner hall.
The guards of the inner hall were evidently stronger than those of the outer hall.
However, Mo Zhan, Zhuge Qingyun, and the others were top talents of their respective sects, highly gifted, each possessing secret techniques and numerous top-notch magical treasures.
Thus, passing through here was not a difficult task for them.
After clearing the inner hall’s guards, a thunderous rumbling sound echoed again within.
Soon, seven stone platforms came into view of the crowd.
Before the crowd could figure out what this was all about, an ancient voice filled with a sense of time suddenly sounded in the hall.
"Whoever occupies a stone platform and persists for the time it takes an incense stick to burn, shall qualify to enter the central hall. Each stone platform can only carry one person, remember, remember!"
Hearing this ancient voice, Master Jingkong, Li Mengjiao, Zhuge Liuyun, and others instinctively glanced at each other.
During this deathly silence, Zhao Wuyou’s voice suddenly rang out.
"The stone platform in the middle is mine!"
Before the words had completely fallen, Zhao Wuyou immediately closed the distance with a step and leaped onto the central stone platform.
Seeing this, Mo Zhan, Master Jingkong, Li Mengjiao, and Zhuge Qingyun, these four top talents, were not to be outdone, each seizing a stone platform.
Since they all knew each other’s strengths, none had confidence to defeat the other within the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
Therefore, Mo Zhan, Master Jingkong, Li Mengjiao, and Zhuge Qingyun tacitly occupied the empty stone platforms.
The ancient ethereal voice had not fully subsided when five of the seven stone platforms were already occupied.
The remaining Heavenly Pride, seeing this, frenziedly fought to occupy the only two empty stone platforms.
The cultivators who entered here numbered eight hundred, if not a thousand.
And reaching here showed they all had some extraordinary skills.
Though their talents paled in comparison to Zhao Wuyou, Zhuge Qingyun, Li Mengjiao, these top Heavenly Pride, within their sects, they were also outstanding talents.
Now, fighting for the qualification to enter the central hall, they were almost brawling like madmen.
After only fifteen minutes of brutal fighting, around the two empty stone platforms lay corpses strewn about.
Blood pooled together, emitting a pungent scent of iron.
Faced with such a bloody scene, neither Mo Zhan, Zhuge Qingyun, Li Mengjiao, Zhao Wuyou, nor even the compassionate Master Jingkong made any move to stop it.
Even witnessing their fellow sect disciples being killed or injured, they had no intention to intervene.
In short, as long as it didn’t threaten their interests, they could all stand by and watch indifferently.
After rounds of fierce competition, the two remaining stone platforms finally welcomed their respective masters.
One of them was the second Heavenly Pride of the Zhao Family, Zhao Wuxin!
The other was the renowned genius Loose Cultivator of the Heavenly Domain, Dugu Bai!
Seeing that the Zhao Family occupied two seats on the seven stone platforms, Zhao Wuyou couldn’t help but smile smugly.
Seeing the smug expression on Zhao Wuyou’s face, Mo Zhan felt a burning sense of injustice in his heart.
If Mo Qing were here, Zhao Wuxin would definitely not have succeeded.
With this thought, Mo Zhan immediately used the unique communication method of their Heavenly Demon Sect to notify Mo Qing.
Instructing her to come quickly!
However, unexpectedly, Mo Zhan was shocked to discover that he had completely lost contact with Mo Qing.
He and Mo Qing were in sync, and never had this occurred once before.
While Mo Zhan was puzzled, some familiar figures suddenly entered his sight.
Mo Zhan looked up and saw those coming were indeed the Saintess of Qianxue Hall, Snow Princess, and her companions.
Mo Qing had followed Snow Princess, yet now Snow Princess was here safe and sound, while Mo Qing was nowhere to be seen...
Thinking of this, a bad thought immediately surfaced in Mo Zhan’s heart.
However, he then thought, Mo Qing was a Half-step Tribulation cultivator, while Snow Princess, Yans Ziyi, and the others were only at the Late Stage Great Mahayana.
Even combined, they could not possibly be Mo Qing’s match.
Let alone slay Mo Qing.
There certainly must be some unknown secret behind this.
Just as Mo Zhan was racking his brain, a sharp and mighty Sword Rainbow suddenly slashed towards the stone platform where Zhao Wuxin stood.
The one who struck was naturally Li Chen.
When the stone platforms had just opened, he had already arrived here.
But at that time, all attention was on the stone platforms, and no one noticed his presence.
When the fierce battle for the stone platforms erupted earlier, he did not take action, merely watching coldly.
Now that all seven stone platforms had owners.
Only then did Li Chen suddenly strike.
Choosing Zhao Wuxin as his target was a decision Li Chen made after careful consideration.
Among these seven, Zhao Wuxin had the weakest cultivation, so taking him down was naturally a piece of cake.
In fact, even with the other six top Heavenly Pride, facing any one of them one-on-one, Li Chen was confident he could take them down within fifteen minutes.
However, that would reveal some of his trump cards, making him a target for everyone, leading to unnecessary trouble.
Furthermore, ever since he killed Zhao Meng, he had set himself on a path of enmity with the Zhao Family.
Directly killing Zhao Wuxin would also eliminate a future threat for himself in advance.
Zhao Wuxin, who had just steadied himself on the stone platform, was feeling triumphant, never expecting someone would dare attack him.
In haste, he quickly summoned a profound blue light curtain to block it...
