Chapter 61 - City Faction War
After Battle Angel Michael and the group obtained the Ancient Dragon Tomb, they proceeded smoothly. They didn"t offend anyone and didn"t have any conflicts with other parties to ensure that they would be able to bring back the Ancient Dragon Tomb.
They walked and walked but still ended up in trouble.
They didn"t cause trouble but trouble somehow happened to find them.
Because they had rushed for close to a month, they decided to stop and rest for just one night. Everyone was tired and prepared to head to the ancient city right after a night"s rest.
But that night of rest ended up trapping them on the battlefield!
In the distance, many heavy seals and barriers fell which locked up the area around. Battle Angel Michael and White Emperor Tian Guangming were stunned when they saw the numerous people who entered this region.
"One night"s rest and this place ended up being sealed? Why?" Tian Guangming asked in confusion.
Long Haishou was at a total loss and shook his head, "I have entered the Heaven and Earth Battlefield several times and have never faced such a situation."
"What do these people want to do?" Long Xun"s eyes opened wide. She felt that this was a difficult task.
Everyone who was able to survive in the Heaven and Earth Battlefield was strong.
Saints might have been able to rule supreme in Dali Land, but in the Heaven and Earth Battlefield, they were nothing. They could only be considered average strength here.
After all, Saints were split into many levels: Small Saint, Great Saint, etc...
"Let"s grab a person and ask him." Michael said right away. They couldn"t afford to waste any time here. If people found out that they had the Ancient Dragon Tomb, they would be hunted down and surrounded.
Long Haishou"s expression became cold as he said, "I will do it. I will capture a person and ask him what is going on."
Long Haishou was a Saint but he was only two levels out and had already reached the Out of Emptiness Realm.
Long Haishou was only at the second level, but he was near completion and could break into the next at any time.
Thus, he wasn"t considered weak.
It was best if he was the one who attacked. The three of them hid in the forest and looked outside.
The land for 10,000 miles around was locked up. Many people entered and after seeing the ident.i.ty and faction that the other person belonged to, they started to kill one another.
No matter if one was good or bad, as long as one was from a different faction, they would just be killed right away.
Such a style made Michael frown. They seemed to be wrapped up in a storm and were unable to break free!
Long Haishou was really quick; his actions were accurate and vicious. He found a boy, who had been separated from the group, and captured him right away.
Peng!
Long Haishou tossed him to the ground, frowning as he asked, "Tell me, what is happening here?"
This thin man"s cultivation was really average. He was so terrified that he shivered and stammered, "This is the City Faction War"s battlefield. Why are you asking me when you are here?"
"What do you mean by City Faction War?" Michael frowned and asked.
"This City Faction War has occasionally happened during these 10,000 years. People from the two ancient cities will gather on the battlefield and select factions to kill one another. The ones who win, in the end, will be able to obtain huge rewards." The thin man looked at Michael, Tian Guangming, and the others, shivering as he replied.
"What Factions?" Tian Guangming asked.
"Order, Chaos, Neutral!" The thin man replied right away.
"Which faction do you belong to?" Michael replied right away.
"I am the Order Faction. We just need to kill the Chaos Faction and we will win. We also have a castle protecting us." The thin man replied.
"So you are going up against the Chaos Faction, and the Chaos Faction also has a castle?" Long Xun guessed.
"Right!" The thin guy nodded his head.
"Then, what about the Neutral Faction? Don"t they have a city?" Long Haishou frowned and asked. In his heart, he knew that they were wrapped up in a bad situation.
"The Neutral Faction is free to do whatever they want, but they need to wipe out both Chaos and Order to win and obtain the reward." The thin guy explained.
"Isn"t it too difficult being in the Neutral Faction?" Tian Guangming frowned.
"It is, which is why the rewards are huge."
"Once they succeeded, they would gain much more than the other two factions added together." The thin man said with an envious tone.
"So, those who are really skilled will all choose the Neutral Faction?" Michael understood the crux of the situation.
"Right, they are much stronger than me. Do you all belong to the Neutral Faction?" The thin man asked carefully.
"We are not!" Tian Guangming replied.
"I am finished." The thin guy"s eyes turned black and his heart collapsed.
If they weren"t neutral and captured him, that meant that they were from the Chaos Faction.
He was dead!
"We are not from Chaos Faction either!" Long Haishou smiled. He didn"t even think about killing him but the thin guy was so afraid.
"You are not Neutral and not Chaos, so you are with us. Are you all thinking about killing one of your own and taking more of the treasure?" The thin guy started to think about how he was about to die.
"We are not from the Order Camp!" Michael said calmly.
The thin guy was stunned. He looked around at the four of them and asked carefully, "G.o.d, who are all of you?"
"We are not involved in this. We were resting here and haven"t gone anywhere, but we woke up and found that this place had changed. This is why we grabbed you to ask for your help." Long Xun said.
"Oh, you are really terrified me to death. Continue asking me, I will tell you everything I know." The thin guy heaved a sigh of relief and said.
"How do we leave this so-called City Faction War?" Michael asked right away.
The thin guy scratched his head and said, "People who have come in and chosen factions shouldn"t be able to go out. They have to wait till the battle ends and an outcome is reached before they can exit."
"We didn"t come in willingly; we were sealed here." Tian Guangming emphasized.
"Also, we don"t want to partic.i.p.ate in this so-called City Faction War. We have something urgent to deal with and have to leave." Michael added.
The thin guy thought about it and said, "If you all really want to go out, then end this battle quickly."
"What do you mean?" Tian Guangming asked curiously.
"We must kill everyone who is in this battle?" Long Haishou frowned.
"Of course not, don"t think about it that way." The thin guy was so terrified he started sweating. How could he say something to harm himself?
"What I am saying is that you can go destroy the Order Faction"s castle and then destroy the Chaos Faction castle. Once both are demolished, then the war will end. Only then will you have a chance to go out. This is because the world will weaken if the castles are destroyed." The thin guy spoke his thoughts right away.
"We can try but I don"t know how strong they are." Michael said right away.
"In the past, how long did this City Faction War last for?" Tian Guangming asked.
"At least three years, but it might even take 10!" The thin guy said right away.
"Okay, let"s go destroy the castle!" Tian Guangming didn"t hesitate, pulling Michael over, with the intention of destroying the castle.
