Thinking of this, a bright smile appeared on Qin Xuan's face. Now that he had obtained the Nine Dragons Arching the Pearl Cauldron and gained the recognition of this stone tablet, he would be the only person to obtain the complete inheritance in this Desolate Domain Competition.
He's destined to win this battle.
Gu Yifeng frowned slightly as he looked at the figure in the void, wondering why the other party kept staring at him.
"Brother Gu, we meet again." A hearty laugh rang out, and a group of figures strolled out from the void, rapidly approaching this place.
Gu Yifeng looked over, then his expression changed. The people who had arrived were none other than Di Xing and his group.
Clearly, they've arrived here too.
"Young Master Di, you have quite the refined taste, coming here to join in the fun?" Gu Yifeng said calmly to Di Xing, his voice indifferent, without the slightest bit of politeness, as if it were just a friendly greeting.
"I'm just curious, Brother Gu, why are you in such a hurry to go to the third round of the competition? Who do you want to fight?" Di Xing asked with a smile, his eyes filled with anticipation.
He knew Gu Yifeng's personality quite well; he was proud and aloof, and ordinary opponents could not arouse his interest. He was only willing to take action against the top figures among his peers.
As far as he knew, the only people who could be considered top-tier were Lei Wanjun, Murong Guangzhao, and Xiao Muyu. Apart from these three, he couldn't think of anyone else Gu Yifeng could invite to join the battle.
Therefore, he wanted to see who Gu Yifeng wanted to fight.
"I want to challenge Lei Wanjun and Murong Guangzhao. Do you have any objections?" Gu Yifeng glanced indifferently at Di Xing. Di Xing raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect Gu Yifeng to say such a thing. He actually wanted to challenge two top figures. Was he crazy?
"Senior Brother Lei and Senior Brother Murong are both at the peak of the sixth level of the Yuanhuang realm. Isn't Gu Yifeng being a bit arrogant to say that?" A strange look appeared in the crowd's eyes. Lei Wanjun was skilled in lightning-based techniques, with violent and fierce attacks, while Murong Guangzhao cultivated water-based techniques, with soft and delicate attacks and extremely amazing defense.
Either of these two techniques is extremely threatening, and their power would be multiplied once they are used. Even if Gu Yifeng's combat strength is heaven-defying, he wouldn't dare to provoke them easily, right?
Di Xing's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on his lips. He said, "Since Brother Gu insists on this, then I will wait and see. I hope Brother Gu can surprise me."
"Don't worry, I will disappoint you." Gu Yifeng nodded calmly, then his figure soared into the air and shot straight toward the stone tablet.
As they watched Gu Yifeng's retreating figure, the crowd couldn't help but show a strange expression, wondering what they were thinking.
They originally thought that Gu Yifeng would head straight for the Emperor Star, after all, the Emperor Star was ranked seventh on the Desolate Domain Ranking, and Gu Yifeng should know that his strength was inferior to that of his opponent, but he directly went after the second and third. This courage made many people secretly praise him as extraordinary.
At this moment, Di Xing's expression turned slightly cold, and his gaze toward Gu Yifeng was full of sharpness. This guy was far too arrogant and presumptuous, and he simply didn't take him seriously!
A domineering and unparalleled sword intent storm faintly erupted from his body, sweeping across the vast space around him, making many people feel a chill run down their spines and even feel their breath catch in their throats.
“Look at that stone tablet, there seem to be words on it.”
"Yes, it seems like there's something carved on it, but we can't quite understand it..." someone whispered, carefully examining the inscription on the stone tablet.
Lines of large golden characters slowly floated on the surface of the stone tablet, releasing a dazzling and brilliant light, like a golden waterfall cascading down, infinitely beautiful and giving people a dreamlike sense of beauty.
"The clash of swords and the decisive killing—could this be the legacy of the Slaughtering Immortal Palace?" Suddenly, someone looked up, staring intently at the stone tablet, and murmured to themselves.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed, and their gazes all focused on the stone tablet. Their minds raced, and after a moment, they all nodded in agreement, agreeing that this guess was very likely.
"Gu Yifeng actually obtained the inheritance of the Immortal Palace of Slaughter?" Qin Xuan's heart trembled violently. Although he had been here before, he had not found anything engraved on the stone tablet. Gu Yifeng had actually found it. His luck was simply too strong.
The Di clan's crowd also showed a hint of surprise. Di Xing's deep gaze looked at the dashing young man in front of him, a dazzling light flashing in his eyes. This Gu Yifeng is truly a man who, when he speaks, amazes everyone!
"Brother Emperor, the person Gu Yifeng is challenging now is probably Xiao Muyu, whom we encountered before." A voice came from beside Emperor Xing. Emperor Xing looked over and saw Emperor Hao standing there, speaking with a solemn expression.
Back then, Di Xing led the Di clan disciples into an ancient ruin in search of an opportunity. They happened to find Xiao Muyu being devoured by a demon king. They joined forces to break the formation and save Xiao Muyu's life, thus forging a good relationship.
They still vividly remember that battle, in which Gu Yifeng cleaved the Demon King's body with a single sword strike.
That level of strength was monstrous, even surpassing Lei Wanjun's.
"You mean he wants to fight Xiao Muyu?" Di Xing's eyes narrowed into slits, his gaze growing colder and colder. Was Gu Yifeng deliberately provoking him?
In other places, he might have shown Gu Yifeng some leniency, but here, he would never give him a way out.
He wanted to show Gu Yifeng that the Di family could not be humiliated!
“That’s right, he does indeed want to challenge Xiao Muyu.” Di Hao nodded in response, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes. Although Xiao Muyu’s cultivation level was higher than Gu Yifeng’s, it was still difficult to predict who would win in their battle.
"Well then, we'll see." Di Xing's expression instantly returned to normal, and he looked at Gu Yifeng's figure with a smile. Then he stepped forward and stepped onto the stone tablet.
Suddenly, he clenched his right hand, and a silver spear appeared in his hand. The spear was straight and gleamed with a dazzling light, as if it contained a powerful force.
A hint of relief appeared in Di Hao's eyes. Sure enough, Di Xing was completely enraged.
"Junior Brother Gu, take care." Di Xing looked at Gu Yifeng and said in a sincere voice, which stirred a ripple in Gu Yifeng's heart.
Emperor Star, this is serious.
However, a bright smile quickly appeared on his face, and he waved his fist at Di Xing, saying, "Take care."
The two then walked to the stone tablets and stopped about 100 meters apart.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Emperor Xing was enveloped in a dazzling, purplish-black light, and his aura suddenly became even more powerful, like an emperor reigning over the world. Holding a spear, he stood on the stone tablet, his body as still as a sculpture.
His gaze was fixed on Gu Yifeng's figure, a faint hint of mockery on his face, and he said, "If you want to fight, then let's fight!"
"Buzz!"
