"boom!!!"
The earth exploded, splitting open a terrifying abyss ten thousand feet deep. Divine sense swept over it, but it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea; it was impossible to fathom how deep it was.
With such terrifying destructive power, the original lake disappeared completely, turning into flat land.
"This...this...this...this...this...who is this person...?" The man in white trembled even more violently, his mouth twitching even more than before, he simply couldn't believe his eyes.
Before Gu Changqing, an old man clad in bronze armor and wielding a red longsword appeared out of nowhere. His aura was restrained yet vast and unfathomable. A casual sweep of his divine sense made Gu Changqing feel as if he were being stared at by a god. The terrifying fluctuations almost made him lose his balance, and he felt as if he were about to explode.
My mind was buzzing, as if it had crashed.
"What? It's him?! He actually came too?!" Upon seeing this person, even Kunlun Daoist was so frightened that he took a step back, his heart trembling with fear.
He recognized this person; he was an ancient and powerful being even more terrifying than himself. After he destroyed the entire Holy Land, an ancient expert suddenly appeared out of nowhere and crushed him with a single finger.
The battle went like this:
He used all his skills, wielding his divine weapon and slashing, but he couldn't even break a single hair on his opponent's head.
Then the other party simply used one finger to casually point at him, and he instantly broke his bones and was sent flying tens of thousands of miles away, almost dying from the fall.
"Holy crap! Here comes an even more ruthless one!" The others exchanged bewildered glances upon seeing this. Good heavens, who is this person? Even Kunlun Daoist was so frightened that he retreated. Could he be an even more powerful ancient expert?!
Immediately, everyone trembled, their scalps tingled, and they dared not utter a word.
They vaguely guessed that this person was even more terrifying than the Kunlun Taoist. If the Kunlun Taoist had frightened them, this person had filled them with dread, causing them to convulse!
"So you're here too." Under the spotlight, the old man turned and glanced at the Kunlun Taoist, saying indifferently.
"Yes, yes, yes, I'm here too, haha, what a coincidence! I didn't expect you to have your eye on this treasure that has just appeared. Unfortunately, something came up at my home, so I won't compete with you. I'll be leaving now." Kunlun Daoist was so frightened that his face turned ashen and he stammered.
After saying that, he immediately turned to leave.
"Wait, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" The old man waved his hand casually, and Kunlun Daoist's figure was immediately frozen in place, unable to move.
"Hiss!" Everyone's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Holy crap, he captured Kunlun Daoist with a casual wave of his hand. This guy is terrifying!
"This..." Kunlun Daoist was terrified when he realized he couldn't leave. He said in a trembling voice, "I wonder if there is anything you need from me, senior? Please tell me and I will do as you wish."
"Hehe, it's nothing. I need a lot of essence blood. To be honest, a few days ago I obtained an ancient magic artifact by chance. But unfortunately, because this artifact is too ancient, a large part of its power has been lost. It needs a lot of essence blood to activate it and bring it back to its peak state. Now that I see a treasure has appeared here, I immediately expected that many people would come here to gather. So, wouldn't it save me a lot of effort to collect essence blood?" The old man stroked his beard and laughed.
He was a god of war from the ancient times named Sima Zhao, whose strength was immense and terrifying.
His Taoist name was even more famous: Tongtian Daoren. Anyone in the Nine Heavens Realm who heard his name would be terrified.
After saying that, Tongtian Daoren looked around and said indifferently, "I want the treasures that have appeared this time, and I also want your essence blood. If you know what's good for you, release a drop of your essence blood now, so that I won't have to do it myself."
"Once I take action, the consequences will be severe. Do you all understand?" Tongtian Daoren added.
"What? It actually requires essence blood?"
"Damn it, what am I going to do? You can't just give away your essence blood like that, what if that person..."
"That's right. What if that person has malicious intentions? Our souls will be in their hands. But this person is so powerful, what should we do..."
Many people in the room paled in shock, their hearts filled with turmoil.
At the same time, he was filled with regret, wondering why he had come here today and had actually encountered such a terrifying ancient power!
For a moment, everyone was terrified and no one spoke.
Even Kunlun Daoist felt a chill run down his spine in an instant, cursing himself a thousand times in his heart: Kunlun, Kunlun, why did you have to be so blind as to come here today? You've run into such a big shot, now you're really in trouble!
"What, no one's speaking? Do you want me to do it myself?" Tongtian Daoren's eyes turned ruthless as he saw that no one around him was speaking, and he said in a deep voice.
The scene remained silent, deathly still.
Nonsense, in this situation, who dares to speak? Who dares to speak?
Before he could even utter a word, he had already angered Tongtian Daoren, and by then he wouldn't even know how he died.
The old Taoist Master Tongtian swept his aged eyes across the entire room, and seeing that no one spoke, he couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
"It seems no one is willing to hand it over. Hmph, it seems many of you are unaware of my strength. I am a peak Immortal King, about to step into the next level. If I were to make a move, none of you could match me. If you're afraid, hand over the item to avoid having your soul extracted and refined. Understand?" Tongtian Daoist snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.
However, after he finished speaking, no one said anything.
Tongtian Daoren's eyes were solemn as he gazed at the entire audience without uttering a word.
A moment later, he casually picked up a piece of trash and said, "You, come here."
ah?
Gu Changqing was slightly taken aback and said, "You called me Gu?"
“Yes, that’s who I’m calling for. Hand over a drop of your essence blood,” said Tongtian Daoren.
Gu Changqing sneered and said, "What if I refuse to hand it over?"
"Hehe, that depends on how capable you are, young friend. As I just said, my cultivation is at the peak of the Immortal King realm, invincible across the entire Immortal King level. If you don't know what's good for you, you will be annihilated today. But I am kind and merciful, and I will spare your life. Do you understand?" Tongtian Daoren also sneered and said directly.
“Alright, but I have another question: if I dare to give it to you, do you dare to take it?” Gu Changqing stroked his chin with his right hand, his eyes becoming playful as he spoke.
"Why wouldn't I dare to take it? There's nothing in this world that I wouldn't dare to do. Enough with the nonsense, if you know what's good for you, hand it over now, or I'll have to take it myself." Tongtian Daoren's voice turned deep. If the other party continued to waste words, he wouldn't hesitate to take action and start a massacre.
