Held as scheduled
"Peak late Yin Yang Stage!"
Feeling the aura emitted by one of the warriors, Zhang Lei's expression changed drastically, and his heart sank to the bottom.
Including the Fourth Elder, there were only two middle-stage Yin Yang stage cultivators in the secret chamber.
In the current situation, not to mention two Middle Yin Yang Stage warriors, even four or five of them wouldn't be a match for the Peak late Yin Yang Stage warrior.
Furthermore, other than the Peak late Yin Yang Stage warrior, there was also an extremely powerful black dog!
"Anyone who refuses to swear an oath to the heavens will be killed without mercy!"
Ning Yue first said to Leng Mian and Xun Jianwen, then his figure flashed and he left the secret room.
Seeing that Ning Yue had left, the Dark Emperor did not stay in the secret room for long and quickly left.
"Ning Yue, why didn't you control them and let Leng Mian and Xun Jianwen fight instead?"
Outside the secret room, the Dark Emperor was very puzzled.
Leng Mian was a member of the imperial family, and Xun Jianwen was a member of the Corpse Yin Sect. In the Dark Emperor's opinion, it was somewhat unreasonable for them to control the Zhang family's upper echelons.
If they betrayed him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Hehe, if you want to spend extra effort to control them, I have no objections." How could Ning Yue not know what the Dark Emperor was thinking?
"That's what you said!"
As soon as Ning Yue finished speaking, the Dark Emperor revealed a happy expression and immediately leaped into the secret room.
Seeing the Dark Emperor's actions, the corner of Ning Yue's mouth twitched a few times.
Actually, he also wanted to personally control the Zhang family's upper echelons, but the strength of his soul force did not support him doing so.
After all, every time he controlled a warrior, he would need to consume some soul force.
His soul force was only at the peak of the fifth grade, so it was not enough for him to control so many warriors.
"The Corpse Yin Sect has lost two warriors at the peak of the Yin Yang Stage here. They will definitely not let this matter rest. I wonder if controlling the Zhang family's upper echelons is right or wrong."
Ning Yue took a deep breath and muttered.
Asura and Gui Sha were both experts of the Corpse Sect. Once the Corpse Sect found out that they had died in the Zhang family's forbidden area, they would definitely investigate.
After all, compared to the hall masters of the Corpse Sect, Asura and Gui Sha were much stronger, and their cultivation had reached the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm.
"There's no point in thinking so much. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. The Corpse Sect's Fate Realm cultivators will not dare to make a move in the capital."
Shaking his head, Ning Yue thought to himself, "Now that I have advanced to the pinnacle of the Primal Core stage, coupled with the Dark Emperor and the Red Demon, it should be easy for me to fight against a pinnacle of the Yin-Yang stage."
Ning Yue, who was at the peak of the Primal Core stage, the Dark Emperor, who was at the early stage of the Yin-Yang stage, and the Red Devil, who was at the early stage of the Yin-Yang stage.
Out of the three of them, any one of them was a freak among freaks.
Individually, they could contend with a late-stage Yin Yang stage cultivator. If they worked together, it wouldn't be difficult for them to contend with a pinnacle Yin Yang stage cultivator.
If Ning Yue could advance to Yin-Yang Realm, he could even kill a Peak Yin-Yang Realm martial artist!
Creak!
About twenty minutes later, the door of the secret chamber was slowly pushed open from the inside.
The Dark Emperor and Leng Mian walked out side by side.
Behind them, there were only five martial artists left. One was a half-step Yin Yang stage, two were early-stage Yin Yang stage, and two were mid-stage Yin Yang stage.
Seeing this, Ning Yue was slightly stunned and asked doubtfully, "The other dozen martial artists?"
There were more than a dozen martial artists in the secret chamber just now. Why were there only five now?
"It has nothing to do with me."
The Dark Emperor shook his head and tried his best to disassociate himself. "After you left, not only did they not swear the Heavenly Dao Oath, they even attacked us."
At this point, the Dark Emperor seemed to be filled with righteous indignation.
"In order to protect myself, I had to personally attack and kill more than a dozen martial artists!" The Dark Emperor said angrily, "These people just don't know what's good for them. After beating them up and killing a few martial artists, they became obedient and naturally swore the Heavenly Dao Oath."
"F * ck!"
Ning Yue cursed in his heart. The Dark Emperor was indeed troublesome.
No matter what, the Zhang Family was a first-rate faction in the capital, and their business covered the entire Great Xia Kingdom.
If too much of the upper echelon's fighting strength was lost, they might not be able to care about the surrounding businesses and not be able to control the forces below.
In such a situation, the family could easily fall apart.
"Forget it, I won't lower myself to your level." Ning Yue thought for a moment and said, "Get that middle-stage Yin Yang Realm martial artist to bring all of the Zhang Family's essence crystals over. I want to use them."
"Hehe, if I knew you would ask that, I would have already asked for all the essence crystals."
The Dark Emperor chuckled and threw a storage bag to Ning Yue.
Pa!
Ning Yue took the storage bag, slightly released his soul force, and began to explore.
"Are you f * cking sure you're not kidding me?"
'Looking' at the number of essence crystals in the storage bag, Ning Yue could not help but curse, "The Zhang Family only has 100,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals?"
"Sigh, you don't know." The Dark Emperor waved his hand and said, "The Zhang Family originally had a few million transcendent-grade essence crystals, but not long ago, they were all taken away by the experts of the Corpse Sect and brought to the Coiling Dragon Ridge."
"Coiling Dragon Ridge?" Ning Yue temporarily ignored the matter of the essence crystals and asked doubtfully.
"That's right, there are three powerful forces in the Coiling Dragon Ridge: Danwu College, Corpse Sect, and the imperial family."
The Dark Emperor explained, "They are fighting in the Coiling Dragon Ridge, and it seems like the outcome will not be decided in a short period of time."
"You win!"
Ning Yue noticed the smile on the Dark Emperor's face and instantly understood.
The Dark Emperor must be eating alone!
With Ning Yue's understanding of the Dark Emperor, if the Dark Emperor was willing to leave him 100,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals, he must have at least 500,000 on him!
"Let's go to Sikong Ling's place and prepare for the alchemy competition!"
Ning Yue did not want to be entangled with the Dark Emperor. After saying that, he immediately leaped up and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As for the Dark Emperor, Leng Mian, and the rest, they followed closely behind Ning Yue and disappeared together.
… …
In the west of the Great Xia Kingdom, there was an extremely large group of palaces. At the center of the palaces was a huge square.
This square belonged to the Alchemy Union.
It could be said that all the major events of the Alchemy Union would be held here.
Today was the day of the alchemy competition.
Ever since the Alchemy Union announced that they would be holding the alchemy competition, the martial artists in the capital had been paying close attention to it.
After dragging it for so long, today's alchemy competition was finally held as scheduled.
The square surrounded by many luxurious palaces was already occupied by a dense crowd.
Although there were many people, there was not the slightest noise. Instead, it was abnormally quiet.
However, the aura emitted from everyone was soaring into the sky. It was a spectacular sight.
In the center of the square, there were ten huge round platforms. On each platform, there were dozens of stone tables.
On the stone tables, there was a small cauldron and a storage bag.
Behind the ten round platforms, there was a huge square platform with several figures sitting on it.
"Hehe, Brother Dan, it's our Alchemy Union's honor to have you as the chief examiner for this alchemy competition."
