?Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Everyone, Please Leave_1 Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Everyone, Please Leave_1 There were also ancient martial artists who had not reached the Kingly realm; they could only watch the battle from around the altar, completely disqualified from participating in combat, and even getting close would easily result in injury.
“Chu Wuya fighting Li Tianfan—this battle is truly a rare opportunity, and no one knows who will win or lose,”
“Legend has it they once fought before, but at that time, Chu Wuya barely won by half a move.
So many years have passed since then, surely both their strengths have greatly improved.
Now, predicting who will win is really hard to say,”
“Look, that Chi Fengzi from Longhu Mountain is usually so low-profile, keeping a low-key presence.
Who would’ve thought he’d be so strong that Luo Xiong can’t beat him easily?”
“Tsk tsk, what’s so interesting about their fight?
Just look at Ye Xinyu from Bing Xuan Sect—that’s the most beautiful woman in the Ancient Martial World you’re looking at there.
Who knew she could be so charming in battle too?”
“Huh?
Look, who is that woman in red?
She can actually match Ye Xinyu without clearly losing, her strength is obviously not weak.”
The crowd was abuzz with discussions.
?????.??
Especially regarding the young woman in red, many people were quite puzzled.
The young woman in red looked quite young, even a few years younger than Ye Xinyu, but her strength was so formidable that she had not only broken through to the Kingly realm but also fought Ye Xinyu to a standstill.
Besides her astonishing strength, the young woman in red was exceedingly beautiful, in no way inferior to Ye Xinyu.
Her features were perfect, her skin soft and white as snow, delicate enough to break at a blow.
Especially the fiery red clothes she wore added a burning, heart-stirring quality to her aura, perfectly complementing her vigor.
If Ye Xinyu was like a cold snow lotus born on the summit of a snowy mountain, holy and aloof, giving off a sanctified feeling that could only be admired from afar and not desecrated,
Then, in stark contrast to Ye Xinyu, the woman in red was as warm as fire.
Every move she made seemed to kindle a flame in one’s heart, irresistibly causing it to flutter.
The battle between the two stunning women was like the collision of ice and fire.
Remarkably different, yet it offered an incredibly pleasing sight to behold.
Nevertheless, this made the bystanders even more curious about the identity and origins of the young woman in red.
After all, given the young woman in red’s strength, she would have more than qualified for the Valor List, and with her unparalleled beauty, she was bound to be well-known.
Just like Chu Wuya, Li Tianfan, and Ye Xinyu, their fame in the Ancient Martial World was almost universally recognized.
Yet nobody knew the origins of this young woman in red, which was truly strange.
Moreover, it seemed no one had noticed just when this young woman in red had entered the relics?
It was as if she appeared out of thin air.
Could it be that she came from some hidden family or sect?
This speculation wasn’t without reason, as there had been similar instances in the past.
For example, about thirty years ago, out of nowhere, a mysterious young man with a mask on his face emerged.
No one had ever seen his true face.
His appearance was like a fleeting ephemera, although he was only around for a short six months.
However, in those mere six months, he had beaten every strong person on the Valor List one by one, after which he disappeared again.
Up until now, no one knows the true identity and origins of that mysterious person.
However, the mainstream opinion is that he came from some hidden super sect.
Now, decades have passed, and that mysterious strong person has probably reached the Dongxu realm and become even more terrifying.
Could it be that this young woman in red has a similar background?
In fact, not only were the bystanders puzzled about the identity of the woman in red, but even Ye Xinyu, who was currently fighting her, was equally astonished.
Ye Xinyu had cultivated the divine arts of Bing Xuan Sect, and she was naturally born with an exceptional physique.
If she fought with her full strength, she was confident even against Chu Wuya.
However, she was completely unable to get the better of the woman in red.
She even had a feeling that the woman in red seemed to be holding back, not using her full strength.
This notion made the normally proud and confident Ye Xinyu become increasingly agitated, her attacks turning more fierce.
Yet even so, she still couldn’t prevail over the woman in red.
Xu Fan and his two companions arrived here without alarming anyone.
Only Shen Jianting, upon witnessing the battle on the altar, couldn’t help feeling his blood boil, filled with an overwhelming desire for combat.
The Treasured Sword he carried on his back seemed to sense its master’s combative spirit and quivered slightly.
Having just acquired the final Longsword and with his strength significantly increased, how could he remain indifferent in the face of battle against so many powerful fighters?
How could I, Shen Jianting, not be part of the ranks of the strong?
Without hesitation, Shen Jianting leaped onto the altar and joined the fray.
In fact, with Xu Fan present, Shen Jianting had essentially given up on the Northern Territory Sovereign’s legacy.
The sole reason he joined the fight was his strong desire for battle, untainted by any ambition.
Once on the platform, Shen Jianting’s target was clear; he didn’t go after others but charged straight at Luo Xiong.
However, Shen Jianting naturally did not wish to bully the fewer in number, so he first unleashed a fierce assault against Chi Fengzi, pushing him back with several strikes before engaging Luo Xiong.
Chi Fengzi was not upset; he merely chuckled and leaped to one side to observe the battle.
But Xu Fan wasn’t very interested in the battles on the stage; his attention was primarily on the altar itself.
Upon careful observation, he noticed that the positions of the stone pillars on the altar seemed deliberate, as if—they formed an array?
With Xu Fan’s knowledge, he couldn’t fully understand it at a glance.
It seemed that the Northern Territory Sovereign must have had a profound mastery of formations.
However, as time passed, after countless years, the energy of the formation had long been depleted.
Even if the formation was exquisite, without energy, it was merely an ornament, incapable of functioning.
Meanwhile, in the middle of the altar, there was a purple sphere floating tens of meters in the air, from which faint electric light radiated.
It was unclear what exactly was contained within, but one could distinctly sense that the energy inside was incredibly powerful.
Xu Fan swept his Divine Sense across it, but for the moment, he couldn’t penetrate the sphere’s defenses to look inside.
This left Xu Fan somewhat surprised.
To think that he had reached the level of a Golden Core, and yet his Divine Sense still couldn’t break through the sphere.
From this, it seemed that the protection level of the sphere was at least at the Golden Core level, and possibly even higher.
Most likely, the contents of the sphere were the Northern Territory Sovereign’s legacy!
And the powerful fighters on the altar were naturally vying for this legacy.
There was only one legacy, so only the final victor would be worthy of receiving the Northern Territory Sovereign’s legacy.
With such a tempting prize, no one was willing to give up easily.
The battle among them was fierce, and it seemed unlikely that a winner would be decided quickly.
The cultivators who were slightly less powerful also hadn’t given up the struggle; they continued to watch from the periphery while constantly looking for opportunities.
If the strong on the altar were to be mutually wounded, wouldn’t that be their chance?
Even if they were not qualified to vie for the Northern Territory Sovereign’s legacy, simply witnessing a battle of such caliber was greatly beneficial to them.
