Snowflakes fell from the sky, swirling in the air and covering the earth.
The five altars would light up from time to time, and people would emerge from the altars.
When it was someone from the Mountain Flow Mansion, the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion would be delighted. When it was a prodigy from the Mystic Underworld Territory, the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion would be enraged.
Time passed slowly, and the three-day deadline was approaching.
There were more than 60 prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion, and more than 30 from the Mystic Underworld Territory.
One after another, the Puppet Underground Palace was about to close.
Ten!
Nine!
Eight!
Seven!
Six!
Five!
Four!
Three!
Two!
One!
The Puppet Underground Palace closed.
"No …" A few prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion had collected enough puppet cores and were rushing to the altars at full speed. However, the altars gradually became blurry in front of them. After three breaths, the altars completely disappeared, leaving them with nothing.
They beat their chests and stomped their feet.
They were furious!
Just a little bit more, and they would have been able to break out of the Puppet Underground Palace.
It was just a little bit of time difference.
…
100 prodigies!
There were 100 prodigies at the foot of the majestic snowy mountain.
75 prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion!
35 prodigies from the Mystic Underworld Territory!
There were 40 more prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion than the Mystic Underworld Territory, more than double.
However, the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion were not happy at all.
After all, this was the territory of the Mountain Flow Prefecture, their territory. Furthermore, they had undergone similar training before, so they had the advantage. Moreover, they had a total of 200 people, which was almost 100 more than the Realm of Mystic Underworld.
An extra 40 prodigies would not be enough to crush the Mystic Underworld Territory.
However, they could only crush the Mystic Underworld Territory in the second stage.
Zhao Xingkong had already gathered all the prodigies from the Mountain Flow Mansion to come up with a plan. As for the Blazing Phoenix King, he did not participate.
"The second stage, Capture the Flag for Sky Peak. There is no time limit. It will end when all 30 flags are uprooted." A majestic voice rang out, as though it came from the heavens. "Before all the flags are uprooted, you can snatch the flags that others have. Remember, you cannot kill anyone, or you will be eliminated immediately. Those who have already obtained a flag are not allowed to attack or hand it to others. Otherwise, you will be disqualified..."
Rules!
It was very clear.
All one hundred people heard the voice and understood the rules.
The Snow Mountain was thousands of feet high. Such a height was naturally very high in the eyes of an ordinary person. Nobody knew how long it would take to climb it. However, it wasn't a big deal for a semi-sage expert. He could easily reach the summit in a short time.
In this way, seizing the flag on this Heavenly Peak doesn't seem to be too difficult, right?
Was that really the case?
"I hereby announce that the second stage, the Battle for the Flag … has begun!"
As the god-like voice rang out, the one hundred Heaven's Favorites all burst into action and charged towards the snowy mountain at an astonishing speed.
Snow Mountain … No path!
There was a thick layer of white snow. Snowflakes continued to fall, thickening the layer of snow.
Blazing Phoenix King was the fastest. It was as if he had a pair of fiery wings, and in the blink of an eye, he had left everyone behind. Wherever he passed, the snow melted into water vapor, and the thick snow on the ground also left behind a trail of melting, like a gurgling stream.
But in an instant, it was covered by snowflakes and turned into snow.
Fast!
Blazing Phoenix King's speed was indescribably fast. Even with Chen Zong's amazing eyesight, he could only see a streak of red light rushing towards the snowy mountain.
Blazing Phoenix King's speed was more than 50% faster than his own. If he were to fight against an enemy, he would be defeated or even killed.
Semi-Sage level!
How could there be such a terrifying person in the Semi-Sage level?
However, Chen Zong didn't feel afraid. Instead, he felt an indescribable excitement.
There was someone in the Semi-Sage level who could reach such a level. This meant that he had the chance to reach such a level, or even …
Surpass!
Go!
Go!
Go!
Using his movement technique, Chen Zong was as swift as a flash of light. As soon as he rushed into the snowy mountain, he felt his body sink. He immediately felt something different.
Pressure!
An invisible pressure came from all directions and pressed on his body. Moreover, it was extremely cold. The cold air penetrated his body and seemed to freeze his Qi, blood, and Semi-Sage power.
Whether it was his Qi, blood, or Semi-Sage power, the operating speed was reduced by half. His limbs were numb, which obviously affected his speed.
He wasn't the only one affected. The others were affected as well. Chen Zong was even more shocked. Blazing Phoenix King didn't seem to be affected at all.
If he could still explode with such amazing speed while being affected, it could only mean that Blazing Phoenix King's true speed was even more amazing.
Terrifying!
It was really terrifying.
As Xu Mubai's figure drifted, it seemed as if he was shuttling through the cracks in the void. It felt unreal, like a white shadow that seemed to have merged with the snowy mountain. However, if one looked closely, there seemed to be a hint of darkness flickering within.
It was pitch-black, so dark that it was deep.
Zhao Xingkong was also very fast, like a cold star breaking through the sky. He was almost at the same level as Xu Mubai. Moreover, his power was amazing. He had the shocking determination to surpass Xu Mubai.
The Blazing Phoenix King was the fastest, followed by Xu Mubai and Zhao Xingkong, who were almost at the same level. Following them were the peerless geniuses of the Mountain Flow Mansion and the Mystic Nether Realm who were ranked in the top ten.
Blazing Phoenix King was in the first echelon. He was alone.
Xu Mubai and Zhao Xingkong were in the second echelon.
There were more than a dozen geniuses in the top ten. They were in the third echelon.
Chen Zong was in the fourth echelon.
Then, there was the fifth echelon.
Rumble!
It was as if the sleeping Snow Mountain God had been awakened by the commotion. In an instant, it exploded with a towering rage. That rage caused the snow mountain to tremble. The thick layer of snow was shaken and tumbled in an instant. It was like a wave that came crashing down from the sky.
The roar became sharper and sharper. It was like a huge wave swooping down. At first, it was weak, but it quickly grew stronger and stronger. It was as if the mountains were collapsing and the earth was cracking. The entire snowy mountain shook violently.
Avalanche!
Mega Avalanche!
The avalanche of this snowy mountain was different from the avalanches of ordinary snowy mountains. They were two different concepts.
Under the terrifying avalanche, the originally astonishing pressure more than doubled in an instant. As the avalanche grew stronger, it gradually increased, as if it was going to drown and destroy everyone.
Terrifying beyond compare!
Everyone's expression changed drastically.
The first to bear the brunt was Fierce Phoenix King.
An extremely loud cry resounded through the sky. Then, the fire on Fierce Phoenix King's body seemed to explode in all directions. It spread out to ten meters and condensed into an extremely noble fire phoenix phantom.
The blazing fire was monstrous, and the extremely hot aura seemed to be able to burn the mountains and boil the sea.
It did not stop at all. It was extremely brazen.
Under the ten-meter-tall fire phoenix, Fierce Phoenix King rushed out with an incomparably astonishing aura. It was as if he was going to compete with the Mega Avalanche.
The Mega Avalanche was the power of nature. It was extremely terrifying and majestic. No human could resist it. However, at this moment, Fierce Phoenix King wanted to challenge it and fight it head-on. One had to admit that Fierce Phoenix King's willpower was extremely strong and terrifying.
This made everyone admire him, whether it was the geniuses of the Mountain Flow Prefecture or the Mystic Underworld Territory.
"This person must have a bloodline," Chen Zong thought to himself.
Moreover, it was even more amazing than a high-grade bloodline. Could it be a transcendent bloodline?
Chen Zong did not know what a transcendent bloodline was like, but he had heard that it was very powerful. It was far superior to a high-grade bloodline and belonged to two different levels.
It was like the gap between the Half-Saint Realm and the Saint Realm.
If Fierce Phoenix King had a transcendent bloodline, it would make sense for him to have such strength.
In an instant, Fierce Phoenix King collided with the Mega Avalanche. In an instant, the ten-meter-tall fire phoenix seemed to be extinguished. The power of the Mega Avalanche was too strong.
But the Fierce Phoenix King suddenly spread its wings, and in an instant, it burst out with all its blazing heat, as if it could burn the world and everything.
Boom!
The sound of the explosion was extremely shocking. Countless snowflakes were blown up, turning into white smoke and dissipating.
Go!
Like a hot knife through butter, nothing could stop it.
Fierce Phoenix King faced the terrifying power of the Mega Avalanche and rushed straight up with the blazing flames. It seemed that even the anger of the Mountain God could not stop her will.
In the blink of an eye, Fierce Phoenix King's figure disappeared in front of everyone's eyes. Only the boundless white snow waves rolled down. It was powerful and domineering, as if it had come from ancient times and swept across the world.
Chen Zong felt that the avalanches he had seen in the past were like small snakes compared to giant pythons. They were not on the same level at all.
For no reason, a trace of fear grew in the depths of his heart.
It was as if the terrifying power of the Mega Avalanche would swallow, crush, and destroy his body.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Zong's eyes flashed. Like a sharp sword being unsheathed, the extreme sharpness shattered the trace of fear in his heart in an instant.
With a powerful soul and astonishing will, as well as half-step sword intent, Chen Zong could better resist the invasion of the Outer Evils.
Fear and fear were one of the Outer Evils.
However, not everyone had Chen Zong's ability. There were only a few who had extremely fast reactions.
Xu Mubai and Zhao Xingkong's figures moved at the same time, and they exploded with their own abilities.
Xu Mubai's body was filled with a layer of light that seemed to be white and black at the same time. The black and white seemed to be constantly rotating, and his body became more and more ethereal. He took a step forward, and it seemed as if he was shuttling through the void. Layers of ripples spread out as he faced the Mega Avalanche.
On the other hand, an extremely terrifying sharpness spread out from Zhao Xingkong's body. The sharpness carried a boundless aura as if it came from ancient times, and it seemed as if it could tear the sky apart.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! An extremely terrifying golden sword-light soared into the sky from Jian Lingxiao, the peerless genius who was ranked second on the Netherworld Ranking. It seemed as if it was going to pierce through heaven and earth, and it was extremely shocking.
From the extremely terrifying golden sword-light, Chen Zong felt the aura of half-step sword intent.
The sharpness was sharp and limitless!
Chen Zong concluded that what Jian Lingxiao had comprehended was most likely not the Basic Sword Dao Intent. It was at least the Intermediate Sword Dao Intent.
At the same level, an Intermediate Sword Dao Intent was more powerful than a Basic Sword Dao Intent.
