A disciple from a second-rate force actually had the possibility of picking a Heaven and Earth treasure and returning successfully. Naturally, these first-rate forces' geniuses found it hard to accept.
Therefore, some of them even secretly cursed, hoping that the Mysterious Yang Cauldron Rune above Yan Chutian's head would dim as soon as possible, catching him off guard.
However, they didn't expect that while they were cursing, Yan Chutian didn't stop in front of the first Heaven and Earth treasure. Instead, he continued to walk backward.
This made their gazes stagnate at first, then they revealed ecstatic expressions and mocked.
"Haha … this second-rate force's disciple is really crazy. He actually wants to continue forward!"
"Arrogant! It's already a great fortune to be able to pick a Heaven and Earth treasure. He actually continues to go deeper. Does he really think he's so good?! "
"Even the geniuses from the top eight first-rate forces don't dare to do this. Could it be that this second-rate force's disciple thinks he's stronger than them?"
"…"
Not only the spectating geniuses, but even the geniuses who were persevering on the small mountain and had begun to return as soon as possible were suddenly stunned at this moment. Many incomprehensible gazes were constantly cast over.
They admitted that Yan Chutian, who came from a second-rate force, could actually persevere to this point. It really surprised them. However, no matter how surprised they were, even they could pick a Heaven and Earth treasure at will and return. Yet, the other party actually continued to go deeper?
In addition to being shocked, these geniuses gently shook their heads without exception. In their opinion, Yan Chutian was too arrogant. Even if there were Heaven and Earth treasures in the depths of this small mountain, he still had to act according to his ability.
Now, he was undoubtedly courting death!
After shaking their heads, they didn't stay any longer because there wasn't much time left for them. If they delayed any longer, they were afraid that even they wouldn't be able to walk out of this place where opportunities and dangers coexisted.
At this moment, Yan Chutian had completely ignored the outside world. In his eyes, there was only the Dao Sculpting Lotus.
He had to get the Dao Sculpting Lotus, even if he had to bear great danger. Perhaps this might seem very stupid to outsiders, and it didn't conform to his usual calm temperament.
However, since it concerned Qiu Yu, he couldn't think too much about it.
As he walked forward with great difficulty, the Mystic Yang Cauldron Rune above his head dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even though the quality of his spirit rune was extremely high, it was unable to persevere and eventually faded away.
With the disappearance of the Mystic Yang Cauldron Rune, Yan Chutian could only summon the third spirit rune, which was the True Dragon Rune.
Dazzling flames appeared. As the flames surged, they obscured his body. Only his four limbs could be vaguely seen, but it was impossible to discern his true appearance.
The appearance of the Mark of the True Dragon greatly reduced the pressure on Yan Chutian, and he continued forward.
At the same time, the spectating sky-prides were shocked by the appearance of the third spiritual inscription on Yan Chutian's head. However, they were not too surprised. Instead, they smiled coldly.
They couldn't see what Yan Chutian's third spirit pattern was, but they didn't need to care about it. Before returning, he had already executed the last spirit rune. In their eyes, the current Yan Chutian was no different from a dead man!
Countless prided geniuses from before had proven this principle. If the third and final Spirit Rune had been unleashed but had yet to return, they would have already turned into a small mountain of dust by now.
Now that the results were confirmed, apart from mocking them for overestimating their own capabilities, the spectating prodigies all turned their gazes towards those prodigies who had obtained heavenly treasures and were returning at top speed.
They were all looking forward to seeing if someone could really bring out a stalk of Heavenly Treasures from the small mountain.
If there was, it was equivalent to a ray of hope, and it would give them confidence. If there wasn't, they might as well leave as soon as possible, lest they continue to waste time here.
"No …!"
Suddenly, a painful roar rang out. Looking over, one could see a sky-pride from a first-rate force looking up at the sky. At this moment, the giant tiger spirit rune floating above his head was rapidly dimming.
Moments after he roared, the giant tiger spirit rune swept back and disappeared before his eyes.
At this moment, the sky-pride's expression became extremely fearful, and he wanted to rush out of the small mountain. However, the spirit rune had already dissipated, so how could he still move?
After a while, the sky-prides fell to the ground. Wisps of strange black gas drilled out of his body and gathered at the shore of the small mountain. As for his body, it turned into dust.
This sky-pride wasn't an exception. The more sky-prides walked out, the dimmer the spirit runes floating above their heads became. Without exception, all of these spiritual inscriptions were their third and final spiritual inscriptions.
Once the spirit runes dissipated, how could they persist? Even if they took a few steps forward, it wouldn't change the final result. They would all turn into black gas and dust.
"Spirit Demon Sword Rune!"
However, it wasn't that no sky-prides had succeeded. The sky-pride from the Demon Slaying Hall gritted his teeth and roared. The originally dim spirit rune shone brightly again, causing his retreating body to accelerate again. Finally, before the spirit rune on his head dimmed, he retreated from the small mountain.
However, after retreating, his face had become extremely pale, and the power of the spirit rune was even weaker.
If the sky-prides who were watching made a move to snatch it, he probably wouldn't be able to resist at all.
However, the sky-prides who were watching struggled and didn't make a move in the end. Firstly, as sky-prides, they had their own pride and disdained to be so despicable.
Secondly, this sky-pride was from the Demon Slaying Hall, which was one of the top eight first-rate forces. This made them wary.
Immediately after, another sky-pride from the Demon Slaying Hall successfully returned from the small mountain, his life hanging by a thread.
However, his situation was even worse than the former. His body was injured, and he hurriedly consumed a precious elixir to stabilize himself.
He was a sky-pride from the Star Moon Palace!
The two sky-prides had paid a huge price to retrieve the treasures from the small mountain. However, other than being envious, the surrounding people didn't do anything else.
Seeing the two sky-prides in such a state, they couldn't help but give up on trying to reach the shore. This was because it seemed like they were simply seeking their own deaths.
Other than the two sky-prides, everyone else had died on the small mountain. They and the treasures they had obtained had all turned into dust.
"Hmm, that second-rate force's disciple is still persevering?!"
Suddenly, a low cry of surprise sounded. Everyone looked over and saw that there was indeed a thin and small figure slowly returning from the small mountain.
They couldn't help but be shocked. Other than the two sky-prides from the Demon Slaying Hall and the Star Moon Palace, everyone else had died on the small mountain. Yet, he was still alive?
"What kind of spirit rune is that on his head? It can actually last for so long?!"
