Chapter 1321 - A Shocking Discovery
"Trying to tell us where to go? Isn"t this Duan Qing being too disrespectful? Young Master, if we had known the kind of person he was, we shouldn"t have helped him in the first place."
The two Martial Monarchs wore a disdainful look when they heard Qin Nan"s words.
They would not believe that in just a few breaths" time, Duan Qing whose aura was only at the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm would be able to tell which of the Dragon-scaled Bridges were better.
"Forget it, time is running short. Use the formation and keep searching for the right one."
The World"s Imperious Ruler shook his head. He closed his eyes and gathered his focus.
He had only helped at the Dragon Palace Dojo as he was simply not fond of Xuesha and his crew. As for the decisions that Duan Qing had made after that, it was none of this business.
Meanwhile, when Qin Nan and Sima Kong flew toward the bridges, the Martial Monarchs on the dojo were startled, including the purple illusionary figure.
No one had expected someone to make up their minds in just less than a few breaths" time.
"Are they...Duan Qing and the G.o.d of Thieves?"
The Martial Monarchs opened their eyes and glanced toward the duo. They were startled once again when they took a closer look at the two figures.
"HAHAHA, making their decision in less than a few breaths" time? It seems like this Duan Qing and the G.o.d of Thieves are clearly aware that they have no chance of choosing the right bridge, so they have decided to choose a random one to stop wasting their time?"
Xuesha, Taoyan, and Leiyuan burst out laughing, whose tones were full of mockery.
Was this how they are going to avoid all the death traps and forbidding auras?
Was this how he was going to the deepest part of the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace?
What a joke.
The other Martial Monarchs nodded, who dismissed Qin Nan and Sima Kong even more.
Obviously, they all agreed with the three Martial Monarchs.
Qin Nan and Sima Kong were not bothered by the remarks. They simply glanced in the direction of the three Martial Monarchs silently, before they disappeared on the eighteenth Dragon-scaled Bridge.
"This..."
The purple illusionary figure suddenly held his breath, as his heart was filled with great shock.
Those two had picked the eighteenth Dragon-scaled Bridge in just less than a few breaths" time?
How had they done that?
"Humph, they"d better stumble into traps and die to them."
The three Martial Monarchs were unaware of the purple illusionary figure"s astonishment. They cursed in their hearts and continued to focus on their tasks.
The other Martial Monarchs withdrew their gazes and thoughts. They continued to observe the bridges.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. The period it took half an incense stick to burn had gone.
Many of the Martial Monarchs had managed to detect some hints from their observation, who transformed into rays of light heading for the respective Dragon-scaled Bridges.
When it was almost the end of the time given, Sheng Tianjing, Zhuang Cidao, Old Man Kongwu, and the Frost Queen unleashed great auras simultaneously.
"Sheng Tianjing and the others are making their moves."
The remaining Martial Monarchs, including the World"s Imperious Ruler, were startled, who quickly glanced ahead.
They were very concerned about the choices that these experts were about to make. Some of them had specifically waited for this moment just to tail them.
Whoosh.
Sheng Tianjing"s figure was the first to move, rus.h.i.+ng toward the twenty-seventh Dragon-scaled Bridge with his crew.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Following this, Old Man Kongwu, the Frost Queen, and Martial Monarch Cangsong headed for the sixty-third, eighty-ninth, and nine hundred and thirty-sixth Dragon-scaled Bridges respectively.
"Let"s go!"
"Follow them, quick!"
"Although this might mean we won"t be able to find many Inverse Dragon Scales, we can still avoid the death traps and find our way to the middle of the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace!"
The eyes of many Martial Monarchs glistened, as their figures dashed forward!
"Mm? The Dragon-scaled Bridges that they are heading for, their numbers sound familiar..."
The World"s Imperious Ruler and the other two Martial Monarchs frowned slightly upon seeing this.
"Cultivators, I"ll be going first."
A gentle voice spoke, as Zhuang Cidao who had remained stationary withdrew his aura and disappeared from the dojo as he proceeded to the three hundred and fifty-fourth Dragon-scaled Bridge.
"Three hundred and fifty-fourth?"
The World"s Imperious Ruler and the two Martial Monarchs were startled.
Their expressions changed tremendously when they recalled something.
Twenty-seventh, sixty-third, eighty-ninth, three hundred and fifty-fourth, nine hundred and thirty-sixth—the five Dragon-scaled Bridges that Sheng Tianjing, Zhuang Cidao, Old Man Kongwu, and the others had chosen were exactly the same as Duan Qing had told them before!
If this were a coincidence, wasn"t it too much of a coincidence?
"Does that mean..."
The two Martial Monarchs said with a trembling voice, whose heart was experiencing a great tide.
Although it was entirely unbelievable, they could not help but admit it after witnessing what had just happened.
That Duan Qing whose aura was only at the mere first-layer Martial Monarch Realm had indeed known which Dragon-scaled Bridges were the better options in just a few breaths" time.
"What a surprise, who would have expected this, we were being...too stubborn just then."
The World"s Imperious Ruler took a deep breath.
"Young Master...what shall we do?"
The tone of the two Martial Monarchs weakened significantly, as they could feel their hearts dripping blood.
According to Duan Qing, the eighteenth Dragon-scaled Bridge was better than the ones that Sheng Tianjing, Zhuang Cidao, and the others had chosen.
However, they had rejected such a great offer.
"Duan Qing told us six other Dragon-scaled Bridges and there"s only one left now. We should take it as soon as possible."
The World"s Imperious Ruler reacted and withdrew his thoughts. He unleashed his cultivation and flew rapidly toward the one thousand three hundred and sixty-fourth Dragon-scaled Bridge.
The other two Martial Monarchs followed behind him.
"c.r.a.p."
Xuesha and his crew were startled when they saw this.
They had just learned from their secret technique that this one thousand three hundred and sixty-fourth Dragon-scaled Bridge was relatively outstanding compared to the others.
And now the World"s Imperious Ruler and his crew were one step ahead?
"We have no choice but to choose another one."
The trio collected their thoughts. They clenched their teeth and headed in another direction.
