Weapon Master-Chapter 2221
Chapter 2221 goes first!
Upon hearing these words, all the Empyreans, including Yuan Chao, Wei Xuanji, and the others were shocked.
Just now, Yuan Chao's threat was extremely obvious. If Tang Huan did not agree, the dozens of Sky Sovereigns would work together and force Tang Huan to scout out the path. After all, Tang Huan was just a small number of people, even if it was Qin Xian Ye who was ranked second, he still wouldn't be able to fight against tens of Sky Sovereigns.
However, according to everyone's judgement, with Tang Huan's character, she would not easily submit.
In order to achieve their goal, everyone had even made preparations to engage in a chaotic battle on the high platform. After getting rid of Liu Li, Qin Xian Ye and Ji Qingtian, Tang Huan was too weak to contend against the rest. If he wanted to live, she could only scout the path for the rest.
However, Tang Huan's current reaction was completely out of everyone's expectations. Before anyone could even try to force him, Tang Huan had already agreed to it.
This was completely illogical.
Something abnormal must have happened!
Everyone looked at each other, exchanging glances, and they could all see the astonishment in each other's eyes, even Gu Daozi who had been focusing on the mountain range opposite them had retracted his gaze, and looked at Tang Huan in the blink of an eye, with suspicion in her eyes.
Liu Li, Qin Xian Ye, and Ji Qing Tian looked at each other in disbelief. However, after being stunned for a short moment, the three of them came back to their senses.
"Little brother Tang Huan, no, this passage …"
Liu Li anxiously tried to stop her, but before she could finish, Tang Huan slightly smiled and calmly comforted her, "Sister Liu Li, don't worry, it's just a scout. If I really encounter some danger, I'll just come back here."
When Liu Li heard this, she couldn't help but slightly frown.
She understood Tang Huan's temperament and knew that he was definitely not a reckless person. Hearing Tang Huan say that, she immediately understood, there must be something else going on. Tang Huan definitely would not send herself to her death. Since she dared to make such a decision, she must have a guarantee of her own safety.
"In that case, be careful."
Liu Li took in a deep breath and deeply forgot about Tang Huan.
Both Qin Xian Ye and Ji Qing Tian had heavy expressions on their faces. Since Liu Li could think of this, they could naturally do the same. However, Tang Huan had never experienced this "Celestial Sect of Ancestral Immortals" trial, so even if he managed to obtain the relevant information, he was afraid that he might not be able to guarantee his own safety.
Just by looking at Tang Huan's expression, one could tell that he had already made up his mind. With just the two of them, it would be difficult to persuade Tang Huan to change his mind.
"No need to force it."
Qin Xian Ye looked at Tang Huan, and said slowly: "When the four of us join forces, even if we were to die, at least half of the Heavenly Sovereigns on this stage would accompany us in death." As the words left her mouth, Qin Xian Ye's tone was calm, but the surrounding Empyreans felt a chill in their hearts.
"That's right. Worse comes to worse, it's just a matter of life and death."
Ji Qingtian's eyes swept the area as he let out a loud laugh.
When the surrounding people heard this, their hearts palpitated. If they really fought, Tang Huan, Liu Li, Qin Xian Ye and Ji Qingtian would not be defeated. But, if Tang Huan and the rest were to really fight until they die, then the casualties would be truly severe. What Qin Xian Ye said just now was not a false threat.
"It's not to this extent yet."
Tang Huan smiled gratefully at Qin Xian Ye and Ji Qingtian, then mockingly swept her eyes over the surrounding Sky Sovereign, "These scoundrels only saw the possible hidden dangers of the passage, but not the benefits that it would bring. On that mountain peak, even if there were truly precious treasures that could help verify one's dao status, there would definitely not be too many of them. It would be good if there were one or two. The sooner we pass through the passageway and reach the mountain peak, the sooner we will be able to seize the initiative. "
The surroundings fell silent. Many Empyreans had expressions of shame on their faces.
The earlier one passed through the passageway, the greater the chance of obtaining more benefits … Everyone understood this logic. However, understanding was one thing, daring to take the risk was another. After cultivating for so many years to reach the Empyrean Realm, this caused the experts here to value their lives even more.
"If I can pass this round, as the first person to climb the mountain, the precious treasure that can help me prove the position of Dao deity will definitely be in my pocket!"
Tang Huan laughed loudly, "Everyone, I will be leaving first."
Seemingly at the instant his voice fell, Tang Huan shot forwards explosively. Many of the Sky Sovereigns didn't have the time to think about it, as they stared at Tang Huan's figure without blinking. At this time, Liu Li, Qin Xian Ye and Ji Qingtian seemed to have sensed something, and looked at each other quickly. They were all slightly surprised.
After a moment, Tang Huan rushed out of the stage under the watch of dozens of gazes.
Right at the instant when Tang Huan was about to leave the range of the stage, his body seemed to have been pressed on top of by a huge, heavy rock. His body descended in a straight line, and quickly floated above the cloud passage.
Seeing this scene, everyone's heart moved. Originally, some people thought that they could go through the void, directly passing through the clouds and mist to arrive at the summit, but the situation that Tang Huan was in just now, was like a blow to their heads, destroying their fantasies.
With a quick thought, everyone felt relieved.
The test that the Immortal Spirit Ancestral Court had set up against the ancient immortals, how could there be a shortcut?
Once they entered the range of the passage, not to mention walking through the void, they probably wouldn't be able to perform the necessary actions with all of their spatial artifacts and other similar means. If he wanted to pass through the passage of clouds, perhaps he would have to use the most primitive method and walk through it step by step.
That seemed to be the case.
After entering the Cloud Mist Passage, Tang Huan moved her legs, moving forward step by step.
Dozens of Sky Sovereign s opened their eyes wide, staring at Tang Huan without blinking, memorizing every single movement and trajectory of its body. No matter how minuscule it was, they did not let it go. Because, no one could be sure if Tang Huan's minute movements hid the dangerous profound principles behind it.
Not long after, Tang Huan had already walked for more than 10 metres.
But what caused everyone to be baffled was, from start to finish, Tang Huan did not encounter any sort of danger. Just like that, step by step, he walked forward, but Tang Huan seemed to be strolling leisurely, as though nothing unusual happened around him … Seeing this scene, everyone was somewhat amazed.
However, a moment later, several Empyreans' eyes lit up.
Even though Tang Huan had not encountered any danger, there was a pattern to her footsteps. Every time he took nine steps forward, she would have to take half a step to the front to the left, then return to his original position and continue moving forward. After another nine steps, she took half a step forward to the right, and then returned to his original position …
He went back and forth like this, going back and forth in a never-ending cycle.
