The air of the divine city was filled with the smell of blood. Forty-one bloody incidents had occurred on the day before the battle, and many people had died. All of this was because of the ultimate confrontation that was about to begin.
"I'll bet a piece of Nine Heavens Divine Jade — Scarlet Jade King that Yuan Gu will win!"
A world-shocking gamble had begun. The Nine Heavens Divine Jade was a divine material that could be used to forge divine weapons. It was difficult to find in this world and could be considered priceless treasures. Even saints would be tempted.
"A piece of Great Luo Silver Essence!"
The monkey arrived and gambled generously with that ancient race expert. It was also a rare divine material the size of a human's head that was rarely seen in many years.
"Sacred Prince, are you betting on the human race's divine physique to win?" An ancient race expert was somewhat dissatisfied, but due to the other party's status, he didn't act out directly.
"Can't I?" The monkey cast a sidelong glance and said in a domineering manner, "Could it be that all the ancient tribes belong to the Primordial Lake Race?"
This world-shocking gamble was something that everyone could participate in. Of course, there were also private gamblers that only took place between two people. They were betting on rare treasures because no one else could take them out.
On the other side of the gambling house, Dongfang Ye, Li Heishui, and Li Tian were also betting on Ye Fan to win and cut off Yuan Gu's head.
However, it was difficult for them to bet privately like the monkey because divine materials were too rare. Even the ancient race's precious materials were not enough. Who would be willing to take them out?
In another gambling house, the Heavenly Prince's appearance made all the cultivators nervous. He took out a sparkling and translucent pendant. It didn't emit any radiance, but it was enough to move people's hearts.
The Dao Comprehension Tea Tree's core.
When someone revealed the origins of this pendant, it immediately caused a commotion. Many people turned pale with fright. This was a priceless material that couldn't be exchanged for anything.
"It really is the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree's core."
The gambling house immediately flared up. What kind of heaven-defying treasure was this? With it in hand, one's cultivation would be much faster. It could help one comprehend the dao and was an immortal treasure that one could only dream of.
"Left behind by the Undying Heavenly Emperor …"
Very quickly, people thought of some ancient secrets. Back then, the Undying Heavenly Emperor chopped down the Dao Comprehension Tree and refined it into a dao coffin. He buried himself in the style of a god, and no one could compare to him since ancient times.
It was clear that this Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree Heart was real, obtained after being refined, left for his son. It was difficult to find a second one in this world, a dreamlike level immortal material.
The crystalline heart of the tree was only the size of a longan. It was warm and translucent, and it emanated strand after strand of ripples of the Dao. They interweaved into an expanse of mysterious and profound markings in the surroundings, and they were innately capable of resonating with the Dao.
This gambling house was in an uproar, and news immediately spread. This pendant was too precious, and its value was almost immeasurable.
"I bet that Yuan Gu will win, and the blood of the Human Race's Sacred Physique will be sprinkled all over Qixia Plain." The Heavenly Prince's complexion was like jade as he calmly spoke. His black hair fell over his shoulders, and he was even more beautiful than a woman. His body was sparkling and translucent, almost perfect. He could be considered a flawless man.
Everyone in the divine city knew about it, and many people rushed there.
"I'll bet with you!" A human race old cultivator brought out a damaged holy weapon.
The Heavenly Prince shook his head in disdain and said, "Far from enough. You don't have the qualifications at all. If you want to bet with me, then you have to reveal your own stake. At the very least, you have to bring out a great emperor's ancient scripture."
"This poor Daoist will bet with you!" Duan De immediately appeared. The grave robber couldn't remain calm, bringing out two stalks of ancient king medicine. This immediately triggered a huge commotion.
"King Medicine! A single stalk can prolong one's life by several hundred years, yet he brought out two at once. What kind of background does this damn fatty have?"
This truly left everyone shocked. The drying up of one's lifespan was a problem that every cultivator had to face in the end. A single stalk of king medicine was hard to find, let alone two living stalks at once.
Only a few people knew of Duan De's identity. They warned the people around them, saying, "Shh, lower your voice. Don't slander him. This is someone who holds grudges the most. Be careful of your family's ancestral graves being dug up."
"Two stalks of king medicine isn't enough. If you want to steal the qilin divine medicine seed, then that's more like it." The Heavenly Prince laughed coldly.
At this moment, everyone came to a realization. He came specifically for the undying medicine on Ye Fan's body. This was a bet of life and death.
"Woof!" The Black Emperor growled, secretly hating that he couldn't find Ye Fan's whereabouts. Otherwise, he was prepared to throw caution to the wind and gamble. His large eyes stared at the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree, his heart unable to shift.
Meanwhile, the monkey, Li Tian, Dongfang Ye, and the others also came. They stared at the Heavenly Prince and forcefully restrained themselves from rushing over to kill him. This was because he had a protector by his side.
Of course, the people around him didn't dare to make a move against them. As long as the Victorious Fighting Buddha existed in this world, all those who went against him would have to be on tenterhooks.
"Sacred Prince, how about we make a bet? If you don't have a suitable stake, then pick out one or two of your father's scriptures." The Heavenly Prince said.
"This bastard is provoking me." The Black Emperor bared his teeth.
"Why don't we go to Sunset Perch Plains and have a great battle? If I die, you can take away the scriptures left behind by my father. If you die, I can take away the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree's heart." The monkey opposed with equal harshness.
"What's there to argue about? We are all members of the royal family that survived since the ancient times. We should get along with each other. "An ancient race elder stepped out to mediate.
In the end, the monkey and the Heavenly Prince both snorted coldly. The Primordial Royal Family appeared to be harmonious on the surface, but when had they ever truly gotten along? They each controlled a few powerful tribes and rarely did they unite against external enemies.
"This poor Daoist will make a bet with you." At this moment, a young Daoist walked in. In his hand was a page of scripture that flowed with dao marks. Before anyone could see it clearly, he had already put it away.
"Who are you? What are you going to bet with me?" The Heavenly Prince asked indifferently. However, his heart was shaken. That page of scripture just now was definitely not an ordinary item.
"This poor Daoist is Yuanshi. I will use a scroll of Yuanshi Scripture as the wager." The young Daoist revealed a mouthful of snow-white teeth and smiled confidently.
"I've never heard of it before. You want to use a random scripture to compete with the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree's heart?" A person beside the Heavenly Prince sneered.
Swoosh!
The page of scripture flickered once again. Nine mysterious ancient characters burst forth with brilliance and disappeared in a flash, leaving behind a type of dao rhythm in the air. This immediately caused all the experts to be astonished.
"How about it? There are nine emperor characters on it. Is the wager enough?" This Daoist was naturally Ye Fan. He had also come to the God City. Now that his origin technique was not far from the Heavenly Master Realm, even if he had the Heaven's Eye, no one would be able to see through his true body.
"Alright, I will bet with you!" A world-shaking gamble began.
…
Sunset Perch Plains was an ancient battlefield. Not even a blade of grass grew here. It was vast and boundless. It had existed since the ancient times, and there were countless legends about it.
According to the ancient records of the various races, the Yuan Emperor killed the strongest opponent in his life here. From then on, he walked on the path of invincibility and finally became an emperor.
Yuan Gu chose this place for the decisive battle. His determination and meaning were obvious. He was determined to prove his dao and walk on his own supreme emperor's path!
Early in the morning, a ray of multicolored light streaked across the sky. The bright red sun rose from the horizon, illuminating the plains and making this place much livelier.
At this moment, Sunset Perch Plains was not deserted. It was already densely packed with people. It was unknown how many cultivators had crossed the void and arrived. Moreover, it was still ongoing. From time to time, the domain gates would open. Everyone had been waiting for this battle for many days.
This was originally a wilderness, but now it was filled with a sea of people. One couldn't see the end with a single glance, and it became a kind of wonder.
The Southern Mountains Barbarian King had arrived. He rode on the back of the Azure Dragon and descended. Those who were attentive saw a small black turtle lying on his head, and their hearts were all shaken.
"The people from the Demon Imperial Palace have also arrived …" A group of ancient demons descended, including the Southern Demon and Qi Huoshui. They did not want to miss this battle.
"Amitabha." Buddhist chants rang out. Several golden arhats appeared, and behind them were more than ten young monks. Buddhist light shone from the back of each of their heads, forming a wheel, mysterious and powerful.
"They are from the Great Leiyin Temple!" Quite a few people cried out in alarm. There were many ancient temples in the Western Desert, but in terms of their roots, they all originated from Mount Meru.
Suddenly, a commotion broke out in the distance. The people from the Primitive Lake had arrived. They were a dense mass of over a thousand people, and among them, there were no less than a hundred from the Emperor Clan. There were even ancient kings among them!
Not to mention anything else, just this aura alone was enough to intimidate any opponent. With an ancestral king overseeing the formation, who wouldn't be shocked? On the contrary, Yuan Gu would definitely be more domineering.
"Can Ye Fan win?" Ji Ziyue was filled with worry as she searched with her big eyes. Ye Fan had not arrived yet. She stood shoulder to shoulder with Ji Haoyue, flanked by quite a few old-timers from the Ji Clan.
"What right does the divine physique have to compete with the ancient emperor's bloodline? Why did you muster such a large force? We can kill him with our own hands!"
Over a thousand people had gathered at the Primitive Lake, and quite a few radical young disciples were discussing. They didn't accept the divine physique at all and believed that there was no need for Yuan Gu to make a move. They were enough.
Immediately, many people from the neighboring ancient tribes responded. In a moment, the atmosphere here was flourishing to the extreme. Yuan Gu hadn't appeared yet, but this place was already boiling over.
"Where is the human race's divine physique?" A young man from the ancient race stood up and said with a cold gaze, "You want to fight against the ancient emperor's bloodline? I don't think there is a need. I will kill you myself!"
This was a youth from the king race, one of the eight great king races under the Primitive Lake. His cultivation had reached the great circle of immortal two and was about to sever one's dao.
Everyone's hearts trembled. This was definitely arranged by someone. On one hand, they made Yuan Gu's aura flourish, and on the other hand, they attacked the human race's divine physique, continuously weakening his aura before the battle.
It wasn't necessarily the royal family of the Primitive Lake who wanted to do this. It was possible that the powerful tribes under them had made this decision.
"That's right. What does the human race's divine physique count for? What qualifications does he have to fight against the ancient emperor's bloodline? I think I should go out and kill him first!" Another young expert from the ancient race stood up.
"A group of filthy brats. This poor Taoist will kill you all." At this moment, a tall and sturdy figure stepped forward.
"Who are you?"
"This poor Taoist is Tongtian. I will kill all of you rotten firewood. Don't affect the real battle." The young Taoist who called himself Tongtian strode forward.
"Since you dare to come, then it will be a battle of life and death." The few ancient race members who had been clamoring just now walked forward with a fiendish smile.
"This poor Taoist will send you all on your way!" The young Taoist shouted loudly and unexpectedly attacked the few people at the same time.
In an instant, all kinds of lights danced in the air. These people were all sucked in and began a battle of life and death.
However, the battle didn't last for long. Very soon, blood splashed everywhere as several ancient race members were cut in half, dying the ground red with their blood.
The Dragon Sparrow soared through the sky. The Eastern Wasteland's demon giants had arrived. The Crimson Dragon Daoist, the successor of the Sky Demon Palace, Yao Yuekong, and a group of people descended. Among them was a woman who looked like a fairy from the nine heavens. Her style was peerless and could cause the downfall of cities and countries. She was the Azure Emperor's descendant, Yan Ruyu.
On the other side, the realm gate opened. Saint Child Yao Guang appeared with the identity of the successor. He had an indescribable temperament, and many old antiques guarded and respected him.
"The Nine Phoenix Ancestor has arrived!"
In the distance, an ancient divine carriage appeared in the void with nine terrifying archaic beasts pulling it. No one had thought that this battle would alarm such a peerless character.
"No one is allowed to be rude and cause trouble. Let the human race's divine physique fight against the ancient race." A cold voice came from the carriage.
