Chapter 52

Meanwhile, the Celestial Emperor of the Center was confident that he would obtain all the Primordial cultivation techniques, and that he would definitely be able to take away the Source of Immortal Power in the future.

Among them were the family members and friends of others, which meant some people would simply not step down.

He went down the stairs diagonally opposite the dormitory door and sneaked a peek at the door of his head teacher, Qin Wanru.

"Oh no, there is a variable!" The Patriarch of the Soul Clan, resembling a wraith of impermanence, suddenly let out a sharp scream, then leaped over three feet high like a cat whose fur stood on end. His ghostly hair and clothes fluttered without any wind, making him look as though he had been possessed by a demon, his crimson eyes terrifyingly bloodshot.

Six? Six S3 Destroyers? How could so many zombies of this caliber appear in Tokonosu City? Isn't this utter bullshit? And they are even concentrated together, right inside this prison? Is that so-called evolution probability definitely not some scam? Could it be something cooked up by some mainland pseudo-expert or professor?

"Good thing I arrived just in time!" At this moment, Jiang Wei almost wanted to thank the heavens—thank the heavens for letting him return to the mortal realm at such a crucial moment, and for allowing him to save Lü Qing and the others just in the nick of time.

"Damn it, if this thing goes out of control and explodes, my hand is going to be blown to pieces, right?!" Jiang Wei currently felt as though he were gripping an oversized firecracker in his hand, one that could detonate at any second.

"It sounds somewhat reasonable, but there is a problem. Right now we are facing the threat of the God Clan. Won't such a high-profile move cause trouble?" The Leader of the Samsara Sect objected with some reservation.

Di Shuyue was slightly startled. He indeed had a secret, but even his adoptive father Di Jingxian... no, it should be Lin Jinghun—did not know about it. Now that his sworn brother brought it up, a wave of anxiety inevitably stirred within his heart.

Upon reaching this grand hall, one had only a single choice: either choose the Dragon Pool or choose a weapon.

The moment the voice faded, Shen Ze walked in from outside the hall with a blank expression. Aside from Eunuch Luo, he was followed by a tall and slender figure, who was none other than Gu Qingming.

Whether it was spoken aloud or made up, Wei Xuan no longer had the time to quibble with him. The fragrant steak had already been prepared and served, and its rich aroma immediately lured her soul away.

Tian Xiaoli and Shui Yuanquan exchanged glances. Shui Yuanquan directly averted his gaze, wearing an expression that seemed to say, "What the hell does that have to do with me?"

"You could say yes, and you could say no, because I am just that idle!" The middle-aged man looked at Fan Yu and said with a helpless, exhausted air.

The sound of battle drums thundered. Nobody knew who had given the order first, but in the blink of an eye, the troops of both sides had already clashed fiercely.

The pain in his anus gave him an indescribable sensation. So this was what getting buggered felt like. While his mind was still lingering on that bizarre pain in his chrysanthemum, he suddenly felt his neck twist sharply.

The morale of the entire army soared to the maximum. Among them were their brothers, yet those who survived were all fiercely loyal individuals.

Damn it, why is my luck so rotten? I haven't even had the time to warm these banknotes in my hands, and now it looks like I won't be able to hold onto them.

Knowing that the two youths would not accompany him, the man in black exchanged glances with them, and then his figure sprung into motion.

"Actually, Sister Hua and A Duo are not bad by nature. As long as they are guided properly, they might turn out fine in the future," Chen Xiaotang said.

If this were a human-grade astral artifact, Zhao Xuan wouldn't yearn for it all that much. But if it were an earth-grade or even heaven-grade astral artifact, it would be a completely different story. To Zhao Xuan at present, it held an immense attraction just the same.

The area outside the cave had somehow entirely turned into a lake. All the previous pools had vanished completely, and the water level of the original lake had risen dramatically, reaching right up to the entrance of the Black-Feathered Messenger's cave.

Zhao Ziyue had assisted with such matters many times before, but today, upon hearing Wang Zijun's instructions, a sense of stifling frustration welled up inside him, and an inexplicable surge of irritation rose from the bottom of his heart.

Before the holiday, Wang Zijun had roughly glanced at the duty roster and clearly remembered that Zhu Changyou was not scheduled for duty today. Encountering him here by surprise today, he could not help but nod inwardly in his mind.

A driver serving leaders within government organs must possess sharp situational awareness: whatever is required to serve the leadership must be meticulously executed by all means, while whatever one ought not to get involved in must be avoided at all costs.

Qin Hongjin and Fang Chunlan sat to one side listening. At this moment, expressions of utter shock appeared on both of their faces; clearly, they had been terrified by Wang Zijun's plan.

"For example, the age gap between you and me, the seven-year itch, and all that..." Li Wei felt that whatever he was saying was completely off the rails.

The audience below erupted entirely. People cheered, picking up the wine glasses beside them and clinking them with their friends to celebrate this deeply meaningful moment.

"Hmph, but when I say my true essence is abundant, I am not joking around," Cheng Tian said as the aura across his entire body suddenly surged violently, radiating a powerful wave of primordial energy from within him.

Originally drawing sidelong glances from countless people, a single remark from Han Lianyi attracted an even larger crowd to stop and watch.

"Great Elder, Senior Brother Cheng Tian doesn't seem to have practiced the Art of Sword Control. Is there any possibility he can break through?" a disciple asked.

Regarding Ye Lin's plight, Cheng Tian and Yang Lianquan felt considerable sympathy, and through it, the two of them also came to realize that the world of cultivation was far colder and more selfish than the mortal realm.

Wu Hang was deeply alarmed upon receiving the news and hurriedly ordered a citywide lockdown. All garrison troops and able-bodied men within Chengdu were deployed to the city walls for defense, while scouts were simultaneously dispatched outside the city to locate the main army under Wen Pulu's command and relay this intelligence to him.

Seeing this, Cheng Tian could not help but furrow his brows. A life-and-death arena truly demanded a final settlement of life and death; unless there was a vast disparity in strength, even victory would be a pyrrhic one, where killing a thousand enemies cost eight hundred of one's own.

When Li Hao casually closed the room door behind him, followed by a crisp "click," it was successfully bolted from the inside. Li Hao activated his Godly Tycoon inspection privilege to check whether there were any pinhole cameras or similar covert recording devices in the room. Two seconds later, the privilege display indicated: [None].

After inquiring at several fairly large shops consecutively, it turned out just as Xiaoyaozi had said—there were indeed no Flame Crystals available for sale.

In truth, he was also quite eager to meet this fellow who was taking over the Lion King, just to see if he was qualified enough.
