Chapter 608 - 284: Thunder Flame Golden Crystal

Chapter 608: Chapter 284: Thunder Flame Golden Crystal

“A life-and-death duel, do you dare to face it?”

Qi Feiyu stared at Luo Cheng, his gaze as sharp as a needle, and his cold, severe voice echoed through the Outer Sect Square.

Luo Cheng locked eyes with Qi Feiyu, about to speak.

Crack!

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky and instantly appeared before Luo Cheng, from which a figure emerged.

The old man had white hair and beard, an imposing figure, and a thick brow, dressed in a large yellow robe. Sparks of lightning flickered around him, and his very presence exerted a psychological pressure!

“Supreme Elder Ming Sect!”

Seeing the newcomer, the Inner Sect elders present all bowed in salute.

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect looked directly at Luo Cheng: “Luo Cheng, I have matters to discuss with you, come with me!”

Luo Cheng had decisively defeated Yu Yiyao, impressing the Supreme Elder Ming Sect greatly!

Qi Feiyu, being one of the top ten seed disciples of the Inner Sect and a direct disciple of the Shi Huang Supreme Elder, not only comprehended a seventy percent Sword Intent Prototype, but also practiced the Xuanyuan Sect’s most advanced cultivation techniques and martial arts, his combat prowess extraordinary!

Although Luo Cheng defeated Yu Yiyao, he would find it difficult to contend with Qi Feiyu.

Thus, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect stepped in, intending to forcibly take Luo Cheng away to prevent him from suffering loss.

Seeing Luo Cheng being taken away, Qi Feiyu’s expression turned grim, unwilling to leave matters unresolved, he took a deep breath and said:

“Supreme Elder Ming Sect…”

Hmm?

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect frowned, his gaze landing on Qi Feiyu, lightning dancing in his pupils, his overwhelming aura forcibly pushing Qi Feiyu’s words back.

Humph!

At this moment, a muffled sound exploded across the sky.

Swish!

In a flash, a figure enveloped in intense flames descended above the square, suspended like a sun, its fierce aura raising the temperature of the entire square.

“Shi Huang Supreme Elder!”

The crowd’s expressions changed immediately, surprised by another Supreme Elder’s personal arrival.

Many Inner Sect elders were well aware that the Shi Huang Supreme Elder was a supporter of Crown Prince Hall and had always been at odds with the Supreme Elder Ming Sect, so this appearance was no coincidence.

The Shi Huang Supreme Elder glanced at Luo Cheng, his gaze like a falling sun, instilling a deep sense of fear, compelling one to kneel in submission.

Luo Cheng’s brow furrowed slightly, his Sea of Consciousness rippling with golden waves, yet his expression remained calm.

Hehe!

The Shi Huang Supreme Elder narrowed his eyes, let out a cold laugh, and then turned to the Supreme Elder Ming Sect, saying:

“Elder Ming Sect, this is a dispute among disciples, it should be resolved by themselves. Your intervention is not appropriate!”

“What’s inappropriate about it?”

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect, being of a fiery temperament, ignored Elder Shi Huang and said to Luo Cheng:

“Luo Cheng, let’s go!”

With that, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect grabbed Luo Cheng’s arm, ready to leave.

Seeing this, Qi Feiyu quickly stepped forward, cupping his hands:

“Supreme Elder, Luo Cheng and I have an agreement, this battle must happen! Please allow us to duel first!”

“Shut up! You’re one of the top ten Inner Sect disciples, challenging a Peak of Eighth Layer Awakening Vein Realm expert, aren’t you ashamed?”

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect glared, about to lose his temper.

At this moment, Luo Cheng spoke up.

“Supreme Elder Ming Sect, he is correct, this battle must happen.”

Hearing this, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect frowned deeply, a fire of anger rising in his heart, annoyed at Luo Cheng’s lack of discernment, thinking he could truly underestimate one of the top ten seed disciples!

“Stop speaking nonsense! Well then, the duel can be discussed later…”

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect did not want Luo Cheng to be harmed and intended to forcibly take him away.

Luo Cheng was helpless, understanding the concern of the Supreme Elder Ming Sect, surprised only at his appearance instead of the Kuishui Supreme Elder.

He recalled the first time they met when the Supreme Elder Ming Sect had been dismissive, yet now he took him very seriously.

“Indeed, strength is everything, it’s only when you’re exceptional that others take you seriously…”

Luo Cheng sighed internally, knowing he couldn’t persuade him, he moved his mind, channeling Sword Intent through his arm to the Supreme Elder Ming Sect’s hand.

Hmm!!!!?

Preparing to leave, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect’s gaze shook in disbelief as he looked at Luo Cheng, lightning danced in his eyes, seeing through everything: “You…”

Luo Cheng nodded slightly, offering a reassuring look.

At this moment, the Shi Huang Supreme Elder landed beside Qi Feiyu, crossed his arms, and spoke:

“Elder Ming Sect, they both willingly agreed to a life-and-death duel, no one has the right to stop it. Taking him away now would only burden him with a reputation for desertion, unable to hold his head high, and you would be criticized for being unfair.”

He spoke calmly, yet not giving way at all, directly placing a heavy accusation on the Supreme Elder Ming Sect, confronting him head-on.

Typically, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect would explode in anger, but at this moment, contrary to expectations, he was unexpectedly calm, nodding instead:

“Since both parties agree to a life-and-death duel, we should permit it. However…”

Changing his tone, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect pointed to Qi Feiyu and said: “Shi Huang, you insist on a life-and-death duel, aren’t you afraid that the young one might unexpectedly lose today? A direct disciple of a Supreme Elder, a Peak of Ninth Layer expert, if killed by a Peak of Eighth Layer expert, wouldn’t that be quite disgraceful to spread around?”

The Shi Huang Supreme Elder coldly laughed: “Rest assured, there isn’t the slightest possibility of that happening. My disciples aren’t like yours, lacking talent and engaging in a life-and-death duel only to end up dead and dismembered.”

Hearing this, the atmosphere in the square fell to freezing point.

Those aware of the right circumstances dared not even breathe.

Ten years ago, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect had taken on a closed-door disciple, who was exceptionally gifted, awakening a Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul, stepping into the Four Extremes Secret Realm before eighteen, becoming a Great Power Level expert, rumored to have a future opportunity to appear on the Domain List!

However, perhaps due to reaching fame and success too young, this person became terribly arrogant, during an external training, met a Fierce Cloud Sect True Disciple whose cultivation surpassed his own, they fell into a dispute and set up a life-and-death duel, leading to a dismal, dismembered end.

This incident remained a thorn in the Supreme Elder Ming Sect’s heart, and for the past decade, he hadn’t taken any more disciples, remaining in seclusion, not expecting today for Shi Huang Supreme Elder to bring up the old matter!

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect’s brow twitched vigorously, surrounded by streaks of lightning, twisting space itself, everyone feeling the suffocating sensation of an imminent volcanic eruption.

Just when everyone thought a storm would erupt, the Supreme Elder Ming Sect unexpectedly took a deep breath, fixed his gaze on the Shi Huang Supreme Elder, and coldly laughed:

“Shi Huang, since you have such confidence in your disciple, while I place my bet on Luo Cheng! Let’s have a wager then!”

“Oh? What do you want to bet?”

The Shi Huang Supreme Elder nonchalantly flicked his fingers.

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect said: “I heard that not long ago, you obtained a Thunder Flame Golden Crystal.”

“Thunder Flame Golden Crystal!”

Upon hearing this, the Shi Huang Supreme Elder’s face turned cold.

The Thunder Flame Golden Crystal is a treasure formed through millennia of nurturing by Thunder Spirit Essence Qi and Fire Spirit Essence Qi, landing in his hands by sheer chance, being greatly beneficial to his cultivation of Fire Element Techniques, not expecting the Supreme Elder Ming Sect to wager on it, a truly demanding stake!

“What, you don’t dare to bet?”

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect coldly smirked as the other hesitated.

“Humph, why wouldn’t I dare! I, True Master Shi Huang, have yet to lose to anyone!”

Shi Huang Supreme Elder snorted coldly: “But what will you wager against my Thunder Flame Golden Crystal?”

“This!”

The Supreme Elder Ming Sect did not waste speech, with a flick of a finger, a half-foot tall plant, entirely fiery red like glass, bearing seven leaves, with seven stars faintly shimmering along.

As the plant appeared, Luo Cheng immediately felt an overwhelmingly fierce aura rush toward him, infiltrating through every pore, as if about to ignite at any moment, only relaxing slightly after activating his Protective Essence Energy, inwardly marveling at the Taishang Elders’ resources, casually revealing treasures such as Seven-star Spirit Plants like this!

“Seven-leaf Flame Grass!”

Shi Huang’s eyes lit up, the significance of the Seven-leaf Flame Grass slightly less precious than his Thunder Flame Golden Crystal, yet beneficial as a Fire Attribute Spirit Plant, more useful to him!

“Good! I want your Seven-leaf Flame Grass!” Shi Huang Supreme Elder gently patted Qi Feiyu, glanced at Luo Cheng, and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
