178: C178 Third Round

C178 Third Round

More and more cultivators flooded into the city, and at any moment, one could see powerful auras flying through the air and entering the city.

The county city had been very restless lately. The killer Haotian had yet to be found after the sixth prince had been killed. Some of the old servants were extremely frightened. Once the Cloud County's ruler returned, it would be a great disturbance.

However, Meng Xuan wasn't worried at all. In fact, the Sixth Prince hadn't actually died. The Eternal God was trapped by Meng Xuan in the Realm of the Gods' crystal, so he was prepared to find a suitable opportunity to refine it into the soul Gu streamer.

The location of the third round of preliminaries was in the northern part of the Grand Cloud County. It was a wasteland, with low hills everywhere and few signs of life. Pits and craters could be seen there, and some of the mountains were carved with the marks of swords and axes. These were the result of a great battle between Divine level experts.

It was very obvious that some of the mountains had been cut off with one palm, leaving only half of the mountainside behind.

The entire tone of the world was crimson, as if scorched by the earth. The material of the soil was extremely tough and durable.

At the edge of the Wasteland, there was a huge platform. It was over three hundred feet in size, and there were a dozen old gods standing on top of it. They stood around a golden chair like stars around the moon.

The golden chair was empty and unattended.

This was because the Cloud County's prefecture lord had been summoned by the Nine Li Empire and had yet to return.

"If the duke isn't here, then who's presiding over the tournament?"

"I don't know. At the very least, there should be someone with authority. Otherwise, how could they convince the masses?"

"Let's wait and see."

Everyone began to discuss among themselves. There were already countless cultivators gathered around the edge of the Wasteland, densely packed and anxious.

"I will be presiding over the third round of the Large Competition today." Just as everyone was feeling agitated, a voice sounded. Subsequently, a graceful figure appeared out of thin air. She was wearing a purple robe with a purple veil covering her face.

From the look of it, it was possible to see that she was completely shaken. Infinite beautiful curves, concave and convex ups and downs, exquisite have. Her pair of eyes were like gems, and her eyebrows were curved like the crescent moon in the sky.

Princess Yun Chang!

"Because the Cloud County's Duke has temporary important matters to attend to, I have already taken the initiative to request for orders from the Imperial Family. I will be presiding over the Cloud City's Large Competition. "Everyone, don't worry. This Large Competition will definitely be fair, and we will all depend on our strength to speak." Princess Yun Chang's cold eyes swept across the crowd.

A mocking expression appeared on Meng Xuan's face.

It was obvious that Princess Yun Chang had come for Haotian. She was sure that since Haotian had come to the Cloud County, he must also want to participate in the Large Competition. Otherwise, they wouldn't have crossed over from the Sunset Mountains to this place for no reason.

Her gaze swept across the crowd and landed on Meng Xuan a moment later. She narrowed her gem-like eyes and saw that Meng Xuan was baring his pure white teeth at her.

"I suspect more and more that Haotian is you …" Princess Yun Chang muttered to herself, as her eyes revealed an expression of interest. Because after her investigation, she discovered that Haotian's trajectory was almost exactly the same as Meng Xuan's.

"The rules of the Large Competition are very simple. There isn't much of a difference from the first and second rounds. It's still a drawing of lots, but the number of people has increased quite a bit. " Yun Chang said, "According to the report, there are eighty young Eternal Gods in the Cloud County. The top ten rankers would be sent to the ancient kingdom to undergo the final three countries' competition. So each of you will have to go through at least three great battles before you can advance! "

The crowd began to get excited. They were all experts from different provinces and they were all very conceited. He had been waiting for this day for a long time. The battle for hegemony between the Hundred Gods was a supreme honor. There were many people who had already participated in the Hundred God Battle and were already on the list.

Everyone looked at the few figures at the edge of the crowd. Those were all deities from the past. Even though they were still young, they had all participated once. He was preparing for another great future.

"As long as we don't meet those people, we still have hope." Tang Zong pointed at the few figures.

One of them carried an Immortal sword on his back; it was very dazzling. Standing there, he looked extremely proud and aloof. He closed his eyes and crossed his arms, not moving at all.

"Jian Eleven, the thirty-second ranked person on the previous Hundred God Rankings!"

"Zhu Jiuyin, the twenty-second member of the Hundred God Rankings."

"Golden Ferocious Lion, the twenty-sixth rank on the Hundred God Rankings!"

Seventh Prince also came, he was standing with a few other people and whispering about something. Beside him stood a figure. The square face was very mighty. It showed its might even though it was not angry. He was 25 or 26 years old, but he was like the Human Emperor. The seventh prince glanced at Meng Xuan and the others, ridicule in his eyes. After which, that incomparably imposing young man inclined his head and directed his gaze in Meng Xuan's direction.

"Fourth Prince, Yun Zhao!" Tang Zong narrowed his eyes and said, "A few years ago, it was only slightly worse than during the day. I wonder if it's possible to refine the ancestor's divine power now."2

Although the eighth prince Yun Zang had lost, he had used some sort of method to get back into the fray. However, his aura had become even more powerful, and his destroyed body had reformed successfully. At this moment, he turned into a dazzling golden figure, and behind his head was a treasured wheel that was slowly spinning. His aura grew even more powerful as a faint aura of power from the Ancestral Founder emanated out from him.

"Eh …" Yun Zong found a Heaven Ranked fleshly body! " Meng Xuan said, "It should be possession. His strength is much stronger than before. That Fourth Prince Yun Zhao is not simple, he has definitely refined the might of an ancestor! "

Yun Zong's gaze pierced through the empty space as it landed on Tang Zong. "Tang Zong, I hope we can meet today!"

Tang Zang lowered his eyes and did not speak.

Murong Ke didn't have such a good temper. He sneered and said, "You've clearly been defeated, yet you still dare to participate." But there's nothing we can do about it. Who asked your father to be a duke? "

His words were very impolite, directly exposing the true nature of Yun Zou.

"Hmm?" The light in the fourth prince's eyes was like swords as it pierced Mu Rong Hao's body. Mu Rong Jun let out a muffled groan. His eyes were filled with pain, as two streams of blood flowed down from them. He painfully closed his eyes and retreated a few steps.

A sword of thought!

Meng Xuan moved to the side and stood in front of Murong, cutting off the fourth prince's gaze. A cold smile appeared in his eyes. He wasn't the slightest bit unfamiliar with this divine ability. Back when he was in the empty city, he had killed Yale, and he had once obtained a book. At that time, the devil race expert, Yeru Xie, also used this kind of ability. Back then, he was still very curious as to who was the one that imparted this ability to the young experts of the demon race. From the looks of it, he was someone from the Cloud County!

Meng Xuan blocked the fourth prince's gaze and looked back at him fearlessly.

The fourth prince's face remained impassive as he walked toward Meng Xuan. As he walked forward, an illusory image of a gorgeous lid appeared above his head. It was extremely luxurious and flickering with golden light. The light shot in all directions as it pierced through the Dou Zhe's mansion. He was like a human emperor patrolling the world.

"You are Meng Xuan?" The fourth prince's voice was deep and deep, and his eyes shone as he stared at Meng Xuan like two golden lamps.
