Volume 1 Chapter 720 Seize The Inheritance
Kong Yun walked to the Inheritance Land and saw that the entrance to the Inheritance Land was filled with people. Inside, there were four major camps, namely, the four great clans. Kong Yun walked towards the Dongfang Clan. When Kong Yun saw these people, he was very surprised. He looked at Kong Yun like he was looking at a monster. Kong Yun was puzzled.
Kong Yun lowered his head and found that his clothes were different from the Dongfang Clan"s. At this moment, Kong Yun remembered that he was dressed up as the Ximen Clan and that he had gone to the wrong place.
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you s.n.a.t.c.hed my treasure from me a while ago. I"ll let you off this time. I won"t let you off the next time. Hmph!" Kong Yun said in a hurry. Kong Yun put down his harsh words. He turned around and walked towards the location of the Ximen Clan.
The person from the Dongfang Clan who had been scolded was dumbfounded. He didn"t even know this person, so how could he be scolded? At this moment, Dongfang Xue threw a glance over, and that person immediately shut his mouth. However, he looked at Kong Yun as if he wanted to eat him up.
Ximen Hong also glanced at Kong Yun and told him not to cause trouble. At this critical moment, there was a possibility that a small matter could trigger a war, which was detrimental to the fight for treasures.
Ximen Hong felt that something was wrong in his heart. He glanced at Kong Yun again and found that Kong Yun was very honest now, so he focused his attention on the inheritance.
At this moment, the earth began to tremble, but the people here were not afraid. These were cultivators, and earthquakes could not pose a threat to them at all.
A whirlpool appeared at the entrance of the inheritance. In the middle of the whirlpool was an entrance, but at this moment, no one took the lead to go inside. The dangers inside were unknown. If he rashly entered, he might suffer heavy losses.
As time went on, the Dongfang Clan took the lead and couldn"t help but say, "Everyone, since you guys aren"t going in, then let"s go first." Dongfang Xue smiled and walked into the entrance.
"Let"s go too." After that, the Ximen Clan walked in. Kong Yun walked at the end of the line, his expression calm, but he was very vigilant in his heart.
Immediately after, the people from the four great clans arrived at the Land of Inheritance. It was a gray world inside, but the power inside was very rich. Cultivating here would yield twice the result with half the effort.
Eight entrances appeared inside, all of them emitting the same aura. Everyone, look at me, look at you, you don"t know which way to go.
At this time, everyone could only rely on luck. This was not a formation, but a simple eight entrance. There were different tests inside. Beiming Zi looked at the entrance and wrinkled her face. She then led the Beiming Clan to the middle of the road.
Kong Yun was also in a difficult situation at this moment. He didn"t have any thoughts at all. He could only follow the Ximen Clan. This way, his danger was less. If he left, his danger would be much greater.
Kong Yun followed the Ximen Clan into an entrance. It was pitch black, and the two neighbors couldn"t see it. At this moment, whoosh whoosh!
Countless arrows were fired in the darkness, shooting towards everyone. Everyone hurriedly began to block them, but in this dark environment, it was very difficult to block them. A person"s skin was scratched a little, and he was secretly rejoicing in himself. Before he could be happy, this person"s skin began to rot, instantly covering his entire body, and in a few breaths, he lost his life aura.
Kong Yun"s expression changed. What a powerful poison! Kong Yun took out his lightning tribulation sword and began to block it carefully.
This time, the rain of arrows alone cost nearly half of the lives of the Ximen Clan. Ximen Hong"s face was covered with a trace of worry. These people were not weak. If these people died, their family"s points would be reduced and their chances of fighting for the City Lord would be reduced.
Everyone continued to walk forward. Pa ~ This sound caused everyone to immediately enter a state of battle. Following that, there were a few more sounds. But nothing fatal was found. At this moment, Kong Yun"s eyes widened and covered his nose. At the same time, he shouted loudly, "The air is poisonous. Hold your breath."
Just as he finished speaking, a few miserable cries sounded in everyone"s ears. These few screams made people"s hearts go cold.
Even so, they were still unable to stop the advance of the crowd. Finally, a light appeared at the end of the pa.s.sageway. This light inspired people"s confidence, and everyone"s mood became cheerful. One of them couldn"t hold on any longer and accelerated his speed. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he disappeared with a miserable scream.
At this time, everyone"s mood turned cold again. They didn"t know what to do next.
"Go ahead. There"s no other way now." Ximen Hong said this helplessly, causing everyone to shake their heads. Everyone knew that Ximen Hong was right, but they still felt uncomfortable in their hearts.
As the light got closer and closer, everyone became more and more vigilant. When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, they discovered that this was a sea of flames, surrounded by flames everywhere. There was a fire bridge in the middle, so they could not cross it at all.
Could it be that this was a dead end? These words sounded in everyone"s hearts. Kong Yun walked to the front, looked at the sea of flames, and stretched out his hand to give it a try. When everyone saw Kong Yun"s movements, they all thought that Kong Yun"s hand had been burned away. However, it was not as everyone thought. Kong Yun"s hand was perfect, but Kong Yun felt that his hand was extremely painful.
This confirmed Kong Yun"s thoughts. "This is an illusion, but this illusion is very smart. There is nothing wrong with our bodies, but we will feel incomparable pain. We will be able to cross it safely by stepping on this fire bridge." After Kong Yun finished speaking, he walked up. Everyone saw that it was as Kong Yun had said, and nothing had happened.
However, when people stepped onto the bridge, they immediately felt incomparable heartache. Some of them were undetermined, because they couldn"t help but jump off the iron rope bridge with such pain.
Kong Yun took the lead and took the lead in crossing the Iron Cable Bridge. Looking at the people on the bridge, his face was covered in sweat, and his expression was extremely uncomfortable.
After everyone had crossed the bridge, Kong Yun slowly said, "If what I expected is correct, the front is the destination of our trip. I think we should speed up and strive to get ahead of them and seize the inheritance." After Kong Yun finished speaking, he looked at Ximen Hong.
Ximen Hong stood up and looked at the crowd. "This brother is right. This time, we came here for the sake of inheritance. Let"s go there early and have a better chance." Ximen Hong"s words carried weight, and with the approval of the majority of the people, everyone began to set foot on the journey again.
Indeed, as Kong Yun said, there was no danger. Everyone smoothly arrived at this hall and saw that there were ten stone platforms in the center of the hall. Everyone saw that this was the inheritance, but there were only ten spots. This caused everyone to hesitate. At this moment, the disciples of the four great clans entered the hall one after another and immediately focused their attention on the stone platforms.
"Looks like there are a total of ten spots. Then I won"t stand on ceremony." Beiming Zi jumped onto a stone platform and sat down. Beiming Zi deserved her spot, and no one dared to challenge her.
"Since that"s the case, I won"t be polite anymore." Nan Dongming, Dongfang Xue, and Ximen Hong all jumped onto a stone platform and sat down.
With only six stone platforms left, these people began to hesitate. After all, none of these people were convinced by anyone. Kong Yun was not anxious at this moment, but quietly watched from the side.
Following that, the number two figures of the four great clans also stepped onto the stone platform. Although their strengths were inferior to those of the leading figures, they were still extremely powerful existences.
The others looked at the last two spots, but Kong Yun didn"t. Nangong Ming had sent people to kill him many times. Although none of them had succeeded, Kong Yun couldn"t bear it.
Kong Yun slowly walked in front of Nangong Ming. He looked at Nangong Ming and the corners of his mouth curled up. "Young Master Nangong, I don"t think you can sit here anymore. I"ll take good care of your seat. Just give it to me."
"Brat, I don"t think you want to live anymore. How dare you challenge me?" Nangong Ming"s anger was instantly stirred up by Kong Yun. Kong Yun did not choose anyone else but Nangong Ming. In fact, it was Nangong Ming"s contempt. Then, these words instantly ignited Nangong Ming"s anger.
Kong Yun waved his hand, indicating that Nangong Ming could begin. With a flash, Nangong Ming arrived in front of Kong Yun. Without the slightest hesitation, he slapped Kong Yun"s face with his palm. Kong Yun had already seen this step. Kong Yun rubbed his body and dodged his face. Then, he grabbed Nangong Ming"s whoosh and flew forward. Nangong Ming almost fell to the ground and ate s.h.i.t.
Nangong Ming"s expression was extremely embarra.s.sed. After all, he was a person guarding the four great clans. If he did not perform well, he would lose the face of the Nangong clan. He could not afford to bear this responsibility.
Nangong Ming increased his attack and even used his momentum. Kong Yun was definitely not as skilled in using his momentum as Nangong Ming, but he could not allow Nangong Ming to hang him.
The two of them fought back and forth. They were both colorful and exciting. When the people sitting on the stone platform saw this, they nodded and felt a little admiration in their hearts.
"Alright, I won"t play with you anymore. I"ll send you away." Kong Yun"s expression froze as he dodged Nangong Ming"s attack. He struck Nangong Ming"s chest with his palm. Pu ~ Nangong Ming spat out blood and flew away. Several ribs on his chest were broken.
Nangong"s face was filled with disbelief. He simply did not believe that he could lose. However, seeing Kong Yun walk onto the stone platform, he was helpless and very uncomfortable. When Kong Yun sat on the stone platform, he smiled at Nangong Ming. Nangong Ming was enraged and fainted.
This time, Kong Yun was very happy. He punished Nangong Ming himself, and the next time was Dongfang Xue.
During the fight with Nangong Ming, the wound on Kong Yun"s shoulder split open, leaving behind a trace of blood. This scene happened to be seen by Beiming Zi. She laughed. I finally found you. Let me see where you ran to this time. The Ghost Steps are mine. Beiming Zi couldn"t help but laugh in her heart when she thought of how she could obtain the Spectral Steps.
The first thing Kong Yun did on stage was to treat his own wound. He knew that this wound would expose his ident.i.ty, but he didn"t expect that it had already been exposed.
