Chapter 1656: Opening the Crystal Coffin
"That's for sure. When I open the crystal coffin, all of you can follow behind me …"
How would Ning Yue not know what Di Feng was thinking?
However, Ning Yue knew his limits. He stopped halfway through his sentence and looked at Imperial Peak without blinking. He extended three fingers and said faintly, "Three meters."
"Have you lost your mind?"
Di Feng looked at Ning Yue as though he was looking at an idiot and said coldly, "The lowest condition I can accept is one meter. I can only stay one meter away from you!"
Ning Yue did not reply to Di Feng's roar. He shrugged his shoulders and closed his eyes to rest.
Although there was still a minute before the crystal coffin would open, Ning Yue did not compromise.
With a distance of three meters, Ning Yue was confident that he could snatch the World's Tree Branch from the crystal coffin. Then, he would activate the mini world that he had gotten from Hundred-Armed Devil to avoid the siege of Di Feng and the others.
If not, he could enter the Pagoda of Yuzun and rely on it to block their attacks.
However, Ning Yue did not want to use the Pagoda of Yuzun unless it was absolutely necessary.
Firstly, he did not know if the Pagoda of Yuzun could withstand the joint attack of Pinnacle Heavenly Sovereigns. Secondly, he had no way of contacting the mysterious expert in the Pagoda of Yuzun.
With these two concerns, Ning Yue had to be extremely careful.
"Three meters it is. We have no objections."
Before Di Feng could reply to Ning Yue, Tang Mo and Tang Gu, who were beside him, spoke in unison.
To Tang Mo and Tang Gu, there was no difference between three meters and one meter.
In fact, three meters was more advantageous to them.
After all, there were many Heavenly Sovereigns. If they were only one meter away from Ning Yue, they would definitely be attacked by the other experts.
Three meters was just nice for a buffer.
"You guys!"
Di Feng's face turned green when he heard Tang Mo and Tang Gu agreeing to Ning Yue.
"Alright, I agree as well!"
Di Feng clenched his teeth and said coldly.
Even the only two allies had reached an agreement with Ning Yue. Di Feng knew that if he continued to be stubborn, he would become a public enemy.
Three meters, so be it. He had a trump card anyway. He could snatch the key before Ning Yue inserted it into the hole.
Imperial Peak was the biggest thorn.
Since even he had agreed, the others naturally had no objections.
"I have another condition."
Ning Yue didn't take the golden key to the crystal coffin. Instead, he pointed at Zhao Lin and the five stone beetles and said, "I'm going to take them with me."
"How troublesome!" Di Feng glared at Ning Yue and bellowed, "You're a piece of trash and you brought a few other pieces of trash along. You're extremely stupid."
"Hehe, whether I'm stupid or not, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?" The corners of Ning Yue's mouth curled up into a smile. He then grabbed Zhao Lin's right arm and dashed towards the crystal coffin.
Swoosh!
Behind Ning Yue, the five stone beetles flapped their wings and followed closely behind Ning Yue.
Swoosh!
As for Gao Zhengde and the rest, they didn't dare to be slow. They followed closely behind Ning Yue.
Ning Yue's speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he brought Zhao Lin to the crystal coffin.
The five stone beetles lined up on both sides of Ning Yue.
Three meters away from Ning Yue, Gao Zhengde's group, Emperor Feng's group, Hundred-Armed Devil's group stood on the spot.
They controlled the distance very well.
Three meters meant three meters. They didn't cross the line at all.
Behind Gao Zhengde and the rest, the warriors whose cultivation was lower than Peak Sky Supreme looked nervous as they stared at the crystal coffin.
Since they came to the main hall, it meant that everyone wanted to get the Elixir Pills in the crystal coffin.
Although their cultivation hadn't reached Peak Sky Supreme, they had many trump cards.
Everyone was confident that they would be able to snatch one or two magic treasures and elixirs.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and open the crystal coffin!"
What surprised Ning Yue was that Di Feng couldn't wait any longer and shouted at him.
From what Ning Yue saw, Di Feng's actions indicated that he didn't want him to open the crystal coffin.
However, Di Feng's actions were very different from what he had done earlier.
There must be something fishy when something was out of the ordinary!
Ning Yue became cautious.
For a Peak Sky Supreme like Di Feng, there was no need for him to care about two different expressions.
There were only two possibilities for such a situation.
First, Di Feng did it on purpose to disrupt Ning Yue's mentality.
Second, Di Feng was in a hurry to get the golden key!
"He has murderous intent!"
Suddenly, the sapling's words rang in Ning Yue's head.
"Murderous intent?"
Hearing what the sapling said, Ning Yue was stunned. Then, he extended his perception and looked at Di Feng.
Ning Yue was shocked by what he saw.
Even though Di Feng hid it well, the murderous intent that he gave off was noticed by Ning Yue's sharp perception.
"Why does he want to kill me? Could it be that he doesn't want me to open the crystal coffin? "
Ning Yue was in a dilemma.
On one hand, if he opened the crystal coffin, he might be attacked by Di Feng's fatal attack.
On the other hand, if he didn't open the crystal coffin, it would open by itself.
After all, there were only ten seconds left from the three-minute period that the sapling had predicted.
Ten seconds didn't allow Ning Yue to think too much.
"Let's risk it!"
Ning Yue clenched his teeth. He extended his right hand and threw the golden key into the hole on the crystal coffin.
As he was worried that Di Feng would create trouble, Ning Yue quickly ordered the sapling to open the mini dimension when he threw the golden key. He wanted to use the mini dimension to defend against Di Feng's sudden attack.
Swoosh!
As expected, there was a slight movement in the void next to Di Feng as soon as the mini world was opened.
There was a cold gleam that dashed towards Ning Yue from the void.
Pfft!
However, Di Feng had miscalculated this time.
When the cold gleam hit the mini dimension, he spat a mouthful of blood and revealed his original form.
"Snowtail Rat!"
Gao Zhengde and the rest were shocked to see the snow-white rat that was the size of a fist on the ground.
The so-called snow-tailed rat was an extremely vicious rat species.
The scariest part of the Snowtail Rat was that it could control a warrior without making a sound!
The technique that the Snowtail Rat used to control the warrior was to drill into the warrior's brain and swallow the warrior's brain juice and memory at the same time.
Hence, the Snowtail Rat had another name, which was Brain-Eating Rat!
Crack!
Everyone's attention didn't stay on the Brain-Eating Rat for long before they were attracted by the cracking sound that came from the crystal coffin.
"Sh * t!"
There was no doubt that the cracking sound was caused by the friction between the golden key and the crystal coffin.
The situation made Di Feng's face change.
At this moment, Di Feng couldn't care less. He immediately shouted, "Stop! You can't open the crystal coffin!"
Creak!
However, Di Feng's shout was obviously slower by half a beat.
