Dragon War God

Chapter 855 – Number One Beauty

The mist in the entrance swirled and absorbed the sword light. Nothing happened, not even a ripple.

The Five Emperors’ Secret Realm already had the Bone Demons as guards. The Five Emperors wouldn’t prepare other tests of this nature. Long Chen had a feeling that if he charged inside directly, he would enter the tower.

Just as this thought popped into his head, Wu Lian, who was standing in front of the whirlpool with her billowing dress and magnificent sword, ran in. The snow-white figure was immediately swallowed by the black whirlpool.

“Wu Lian, it’s dangerous ...” cried Feng Qing, but when he spoke, Wu Lian had already entered. He gritted his teeth. If he did not go in now, the Demon clan and the Five Elements Alliance would not hesitate to kill him. Therefore, he followed her.

“That woman is bold.” Bai Lan chuckled, then he waved and the trio entered the mist. The dark and creepy-looking mist was actually as soft as clouds. It was gentle and comfortable, taking Long Chen into a warm and gentle atmosphere.

Suddenly, his surroundings turned ice-cold.

Long Chen’s eyes sprang open, then the trio quickly stood together to prevent other people from ambushing them. However, it was clear that Wu Lian was not attacking them.

After confirming that there was no threat, Long Chen looked around him. They were in a vast, empty space. This was likely the first floor of the Black Bone Tower. The first floor was vast, and there were green flames on the walls. The green lights opposite them were so far away that they seemed to be on the horizon.

More than a hundred green flames surrounded Long Chen.

They were not bright enough to light up the whole area, but they could see that the tower was empty. Wu Lian and Feng Qing were around ten meters away from Long Chen. They had also just arrived and only just came to their senses!

“There’s something there!” cried Bai Lan. The trio immediately looked toward where he had pointed. The thing that appeared was likely at the center of the first floor. It was identical to the five-colored altar outside, and there were five colors arranged in a fan spinning around a center point. They shone brightly, which was why Bai Lan had spotted it.

The five-colored altar here looked more real than the illusory altar they saw outside.

When Long Chen’s trio moved, Wu Lian and Feng Qing followed. Two factions, a total of five people, quickly arrived by the five-colored altar, though no one did anything.

The altar was spinning, and they could not figure it out.

“Look!” someone said.

Long Chen peered carefully and saw that the light from the altar had risen to form several small, colorful characters in the air.

This was their first time seeing something related to the Five Emperors since coming to the Five Emperors’ Secret Realm.

“Out of ten, five advance?”

“Does it mean that out of the ten participants, only five can enter?” Everyone thought of this quickly.

There were five sections on the five-colored altar. Did it mean that only one person could enter per section? Could they advance to the next floor once they stepped on the altar?

And had the Five Elements Alliance and the Long-Bearded Guest lost their rights to enter because they had taken more time defeating the Bone Demons?

After reading the small characters, all five quickly stepped on the nearest color!

As far as they understood, they would enter the next floor!

There were a total of five people here, and there were five sections. It was the perfect fit. Long Chen stood between Bai Lan and Lei Ji, trying to avoid an ambush from Wu Lian and Feng Qing.

All of them stood very close to each other, so they stepped on the altar at the same time. They initially thought that they could advance, but suddenly, a strong resisting force came from the altar, throwing them back!

However, this energy likely came from the Five Emperors, so it was gentle and did not hurt them.

“What happened?” The five of them looked at each other. It said that five would advance, so why hadn’t anything happened after they stepped on the altar?

“Could it mean that we need to wait for everyone to enter, then kill each other until only five remain?” said Long Chen after some thought.

“It’s very likely!” Bai Lan’s brows were furrowed.

If that was the case, it was a very brutal process.

Only five could survive. Long Chen’s side had three people. Four out of the ten were Second Heavenly Martial Stage cultivators. If Long Chen wanted the best scenario where he, Bai Lan, and Lei Ji could survive, then one of the Second Heavenly Martial Stage cultivators would have to die.

Killing a Second Heavenly Martial Stage cultivator was extremely difficult.

The Five Elements Alliance had the largest group and Wu Lian was the strongest person present. As a result, it was difficult even for Bai Lan to keep himself alive, let alone protect Long Chen.

“This is going to be troublesome ...” The trio looked at each other, then they quickly distanced themselves from Wu Lian.

If a massacre was going to take place, then Long Chen would surely be the target of Wu Lian and Feng Qing. Violence was unavoidable between enemies, and this was the perfect chance to kill him!

When the two sides quickly parted, the Five Elements Alliance members and the Long-Bearded Guest arrived. They had fallen behind and were panicking when they entered. However, when they saw that Long Chen and the others were there, they sighed in relief.

They did not even bother to look around; they just immediately made their way to the side of the altar. Even the Long-Bearded Guest did not dare stand with the Five Elements Alliance now.

It was likely that there had been a conflict between them just now.

The Long-Bearded Guest was not part of the nine clans and was working alone, so he was vulnerable. This was the reason why the nine major clans had forced him to hand over one slot from the Yellow Emperor Key.

When the Long-Bearded Guest first retrieved the Yellow Emperor Key, he was surrounded by the nine major clans. Knowing that he was in a dangerous situation, he presented the idea to share his key, and the nine clans were finally willing to let him go. The nine clans were unimaginably powerful in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory after all. Even though the wandering cultivator was powerful, it was difficult for him to do anything without a wealthy background.

“Out of ten, five advance?” They all saw the row of characters.

“Only five people can enter out of the ten?” They quickly understood. This was undeniably a brutal and bloody process.

They could trust the people in their own faction, but they definitely could not trust the others.

The Five Elements Alliance and the Long-Bearded Guest instantly separated from the other people. Everyone looked at each other. No one moved first.

Suddenly, the space quietened down. They could even hear the sounds of their own breathing.

After a long silence, there was bound to be someone who could not hold back any longer. Feng Qing had been eyeing Long Chen for a long time, and everyone could tell that he wanted this chance to kill him.

When they saw that the Divine Wind Faction was eyeing the Thunder Demon Faction, the Five Elements Alliance and the Long-Bearded Guest smartly chose not to speak.

Feng Qing made the first move by saying, “Long-Bearded Guest, haven’t you always wanted the Wind clan’s Shifting Winds technique? If you join us and help us kill Long Chen, it will be yours.”

Next to him, Wu Lian’s expression did not change. However, her eyes, which were not covered by her veil, were fixed on the Long-Bearded Guest, waiting to see what he would say.

If the Long-Bearded Guest was willing to join them, then Wu Lian could occupy Bai Lan, Feng Qing could fight Lei Ji, and the Long-Bearded Guest could easily kill Long Chen as he was at the Second Heavenly Martial Stage.

“It’s best if you can capture the brat,” Feng Qing added.

Everyone looked at the Long-Bearded Guest for his decision.

When they saw that they were not involved, the Five Elements Alliance naturally acted haughtily. Just let them fight to their deaths. That way, the Five Elements Alliance would not need to fight to enter the next level.

The atmosphere turned strange.

The Long-Bearded Guest did not speak and merely smiled. However, based on the look deep in his eyes, he seemed to be hesitating.

“Long-Beard, you do not have a strong background, so it’s best you don’t wade into muddy waters like that, or you’ll get yourself killed,” said Bai Lan, also worried that the Long-Bearded Guest would attack Long Chen.

He had said exactly what the Long-Bearded Guest was thinking.

He was working alone, and the worst thing he could do was make the first move and stand out. Once Long Chen and the Thunder Demon faction were killed, he would be next.

“Brother Feng, the Shifting Winds technique is merely an Emperor-tier combat technique. That brat Long Chen is strong, so I am not confident I can kill him. You should get someone stronger to do that!” said the Long-Bearded Guest decisively.

It was best he stayed away from this drama.

“Tell me what you want. We will surely satisfy you,” said Feng Qing with a low voice, not giving up.

The Long-Bearded Guest laughed and said, “If Lady Wu takes off her veil and shows me her face, I may consider it. I heard that Lady Wu is not just number one in terms of strength, she is also the number one beauty in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. I am very curious. How beautiful could the number one beauty be?”

At the top level, it was difficult to compare beautiful people.

However, even two women who looked identical could be differentiated based on their elegance, culture, outfits, and other factors.
