Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 908 - 907: Deceiving the Heavens to Cross the Sea

"It's highly possible. The Sacred Artifact possesses a spirit, and once in action, it can annihilate a swath of Emperor Dao powerhouses. Even though Chu Ming is a Sealed Saint-level genius, it's likely he won't escape a doomed fate!"

"Truly overestimating oneself. How can a martial artist at the mere Second Heaven of Emperor Dao dare to covet such a heavenly treasure like a Sacred Artifact?"

In the square, many Outer Palace disciples whispered among themselves, their words filled with mockery!

"Look quickly! Chu Ming's figure has appeared on the holographic projection again!!"

Someone suddenly exclaimed in the square, and instantly, many Outer Palace disciples looked up at the holographic projection, eyes filled with utter shock!

On the holographic projection, Chu Ming was blasted out from the Bronze Iron Wall, spewing several mouthfuls of fresh blood mid-air, eyes panicked, looking utterly disheveled!

"He actually escaped?"

"Tsk, being able to escape from the hands of a Sacred Artifact's spirit is something he can certainly boast about!"

"What a pity for such a Sacred Artifact. If I seized it, my combat power could almost instantly rival a Ninth Layer Emperor Dao martial artist, and I'd secure a place in the Inner Palace!"

Amid the discussions in the square, on the holographic projection, Chu Ming, after escaping from the Bronze Iron Wall, flew towards the exit of the relic!

"A clever little fellow indeed!"

In his heart, the Tianyuan Ancestor silently praised, knowing that if he didn't realize Chu Ming already possessed the Eye of Illusion, he too might have been deceived by Chu Ming!

In the Ancient Yuan Illusion Realm, Chu Ming took out several Healing Elixirs from his Storage Ring, popping them into his mouth, thinking darkly: "I wonder if I can fool them?"

After a while, the pallor on his face gradually faded. His injuries, self-inflicted, although they appeared severe, were merely superficial wounds!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As Chu Ming fled, the entire relic began to shake violently, beams of blinding light shooting skyward, and on closer inspection, each light beam contained a terrifying vertical eye!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Pfft!

Rays of purple death beams fired from these vertical eyes, tearing through the void, striking the bronze walls, which crumbled like tofu, instantly plunging the entire relic into chaos!

"What's happening? Why has the Sacred Artifact suddenly gone berserk?"

"Damn it, someone must have provoked the spirit of the Sacred Artifact, causing it to riot suddenly!"

"Stop talking, let's just flee for our lives! The entire relic is about to collapse!"

Amid countless curses, geniuses at the Sealed Saint and Sealed King levels fled like frightened dogs towards the relic's exit!

Rumble!

A Bronze Iron Wall was shattered, countless pieces flying around, and several Sealed Marquis level geniuses who weren't fast enough were blasted into a mist of blood, only their True Spirits surviving!

Whoosh!

"The exit is just ahead!!!"

A Sealed King-level genius roared, his body surging forward, reaching the exit in an instant, chased by a trail of disheveled geniuses!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Majestic figures flew out from the relic, and Chu Ming joined the crowd, exiting the relic, scanning the surroundings nonchalantly before transforming into a streak of light, flying into the distance!

The young talents escaping from the relic, though unwilling, could only grit their teeth and retreat upon seeing the terrifying death beams in the sky!

"Cough, cough, cough…"

Fang Xuanji, leading the Wild Dragon Association's team, fled embarrassingly from the relic, which had now largely collapsed!

Fang Xuanji looked back at the relic, his expression slightly grim, as their expedition had cost the lives of fifty to sixty Wild Dragon members, nearly a tenth of their number!

However, thinking of the two treasures in his Storage Ring, Fang Xuanji's expression softened a bit. The losses were great, but the gains were equally massive!

Following Fang Xuanji, the other members of the Five Great Powers escaped from the relic, each wounded, with the Seven Swords Association suffering the most, losing not only Li Ke but also having Lei Wuji gravely injured! 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang's face was like scorched charcoal. This blow to their association was monumental, and the gains from the relic couldn't compensate for their losses!

"Could Chu Ming have died in there?"

Fang Xuanji's eyes swept the surroundings, but he didn't find any trace of Chu Ming, frowning slightly. Yet, considering Chu Ming's prowess, Fang Xuanji dispelled the thought, unwilling to admit it, but had to concede that even with the relic's collapse, Chu Ming wouldn't perish inside!

"My brother should emerge from that place soon. Then, I'll let him deal with Chu Ming!"

Fang Xuanji thought to himself. The president of the Wild Dragon Association, Cao Wu, was one of the top ten new masters, his combat strength not a bit weaker than Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang!

Rumble!

Shortly after the five major forces left, the entire relic collapsed with a roar, endless dust flying everywhere, and in the sky above the Blood Moon Secret Forest, a massive mushroom cloud formed!

In the sky, Chu Ming closed his eyes, and deep in his mind, a dark-cyan eyeball quietly floated—none other than the Eye of Illusion!

"Xiao Ai, see where there's Elemental Power Grass!"

Chu Ming instructed Xiao Ai. Though he had snatched quite a bit of Elemental Power Grass, compared to the Five Great Powers, it was a drop in the ocean. Without diligently gathering Elemental Power Grass, he couldn't possibly enter the top ten freshmen!

"On the cliff three miles ahead, there's a Lower Grade Emperor-level Elemental Power Grass!"

Xiao Ai's response echoed in his mind!

Whoosh!

Chu Ming's figure flickered, turning into a stream of light, shooting towards the distant cliff!

...

Boom!

At the top of a mountain, a violent explosion echoed, countless rocks splintering, and on the mountain's surface, were countless horrifying prohibitions, any one of which could obliterate a Sixth Layer Emperor Dao powerhouse!

Tap, tap, tap…

Footsteps emanated from within the mountain, and soon, a young man wearing a gray robe emerged from the edge of the mountain crack, his chin with sparse stubble, hair slightly messy, yet his eyes shone like stars!

"I, Cao Wu, finally got out of this damned place!"

This gray-robed young man was none other than the Wild Dragon Association's president, one of the top ten new masters, Cao Wu!

"After half a month, that Upper Grade Emperor martial arts finally achieved minor success. Now, the likes of Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang are far behind me. Perhaps, in the entire Ancient Yuan Illusion Realm, only the black cat girl Humor stands as my rival!"
