Chapter 193: Someone

The silence arrived too explosively.

Shao Hengyang's pupils contracted, and he swallowed with difficulty.

Boom.

Behind him, Gong Fanling's body suddenly slammed onto the Ice Surface, sliding continuously and carving out a deep gully.

She stared blankly at the sky, her beautiful pupils flickering with profound dullness.

"Chen... Yan, why...?"

Gong Fanling spoke in a daze, and a mouthful of blood was instantly spat out.

Splash.

An invisible giant hand condensed and brought Gong Fanling, Huo Tingnan, and the other Gong Family Prodigy members out of the Tianjiao Trial.

In the Outer Realm, the crowd was clamoring.

The leaderboard for the Third Pass of the Tianjiao Trial, the Extreme Cold Northern Lands, had vanished in an instant, and no one understood the situation.

Previously, when Qiu Wei and the others were instantly eliminated, they had not revealed anything regarding the Tianjiao Trial.

At this moment, seeing Gong Fanling and the others also being eliminated,

the surroundings went quiet.

Pair after pair of pupils looked toward those few people.

"Miss Gong..., quick... ambulance!!!"

Someone suddenly shouted aloud, only to see Gong Fanling and Huo Tingnan covered in blood, both of their pupils flickering with unconcealable Scream.

Gong Hangwen arrived in an instant, his breath hitching as he looked at Gong Fanling, who had collapsed on the ground.

"What happened?"

Gong Hangwen shouted in a low voice:

"What on earth happened!"

Gong Fanling's Mu Jin was strained; she opened her mouth, wanting to say something.

In an instant.

Gong Fanling opened her mouth wide, Difficult to Breathe, trembling uncontrollably.

At this moment, she locked eyes with a pair of aged and solemn pupils.

The terrifying, powerful, and indescribable World Truth bound her at this moment.

Xia Hanzhou!

The creator of the Tianjiao Trial was gazing at her at this moment.

Across thousands of Mountains and waters, he was warning her.

Gong Fanling trembled all over, her expression becoming extremely strained, and two lines of Tears flowed down.

To the side, Gong Hangwen's Mu Guang also shrank; he looked hurriedly in a certain direction and bowed quickly.

"It was Hangwen's presumption; I should not have inquired about the Tianjiao Trial!"

The next moment.

"Ah!!!"

Gong Fanling let out a scream, and the next moment, she instantly fainted.

Gong Hangwen's expression was incredibly poor.

All around, as everyone looked on, some were shocked, some were horrified, and some were extremely conflicted.

Gong Hangwen was already almost an existence at the Crown of Yunmeng City.

But at this moment, before that unknown and powerful existence, he actually had to adopt the posture of a junior.

It was also at this time.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

On the massive Golden Formation Disk, ripples emerged.

One figure after another walked out slowly.

It was precisely Shao Hengyang, Shen Youning, and the others.

Shen Youning was fine, but Shao Hengyang looked as if he had suffered a massive blow.

As for Lu Linqian and the other Heavenly Pride, some were extremely shocked, while others revealed a Smile of reflected glory.

Unlike Gong Fanling, these people walked out completely unscathed.

It would have been nothing, but both sides were top Heavenly Pride of the New Dragon Guard and the Gong Family; the sudden difference in their appearance made people suspicious.

Shen Yiwei arrived, looked at Shao Hengyang, and smiled:

"Not bad, it looks like you have improved a lot."

Shao Hengyang nodded; Chen Yan had given him the method to create the Blazing Sun Tree Pattern, and by utilizing the Blazing Sun Fertilizer, both he and Lu Linqian had improved significantly.

To the side, Gong Hangwen looked over with a low Mu Jin.

He wanted to speak but stopped, yet Shen Yiwei spoke first:

"Where is Chen Yan?"

As these words fell, the surroundings went quiet once again.

"He... he is doing quite well."

Shao Hengyang spoke in a low voice.

He was different from others; although he regarded Chen Yan as a teammate, in some respects, he also regarded Chen Yan as a rival.

In this way, he could motivate himself to become more powerful.

However.........

But what the hell was that just now?

Chen Yan stood there, flawless, his entire body's strength rounded into one, just like a fierce tiger, awe-inspiring.

Seeing Chen Yan strong, he was very happy.

Seeing Chen Yan strong to that degree, he could not be happy.

"It's good that you're fine." Shen Yiwei let out a breath of relief.

That was exactly what he wanted to ask.

In the distance, Chen Yuhu, who was just about to rush over, also slowly exhaled a breath.

To the side, Gong Hangwen was already arranging for people to take Gong Fanling away, yet his peripheral vision frequently peeked toward Shen Yiwei's side.

He also wanted to know Chen Yan's current situation.

It was also at this moment.

Among the University Alliance, a female student now seemed to be harboring immense courage as she rushed to Chen Yuhu's side and instantly bowed, saying:

"Uncle, may I ask how you educated Chen Yan? Please, you must tell me; even if I have to pay a great price, I am willing."

The girl's voice was clear, and at this moment, she seemed like someone who had grasped a tremendous opportunity, incredibly excited.

Soon, several other Heavenly Prides of the University Alliance also arrived before Chen Yuhu, their postures respectful.

This actually left Chen Yuhu stunned on the spot.

The surroundings were shocked.

Although they did not know what had happened inside the Heaven's Chosen Trial Grounds, those Heavenly Prides could not possibly speak of it.

But at this moment, the attitude of these university Heavenly Prides seemed to have already explained everything.

Gong Hangwen's Mu Jin trembled instantly, a dark light flickering in the depths of his eyes.

His heart was pounding.

What exactly did Chen Yan do inside the Heaven's Chosen Trial Grounds?

To what degree had the other party's talent reached now?

Gong Hangwen was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, but at this moment, he no longer had his composure.

He had once wanted to recruit Chen Yan, only to give up because of the Chu Family.

Now, he regretted it extremely.

Time slowly passed.

Half a day later.

A roar sounded.

A dragon's roar coming from extremely far away resounded.

This dragon's roar was very faint, but extremely grand.

Ordinary people did not hear it at all, but all martial artists above the third rank had a slight sensing of it.

Shen Yiwei, Gong Hangwen, and others had their Mu Guang tremble even more, and they instantly soared into the air.

They stood high above the sky, looking toward the north.

In that place, Cold Light shot up into the sky, the momentum terrifying, as if it could cut down all Ten Thousand Things in the world beneath it.

The Yun Xu surged and changed, and within it, a giant dragon seemed to appear, its form winding and coiling, the momentum majestic.

One by one, ice lotuses slowly bloomed from the sky, elegant and transcendent.

Lao City, the Ice Pi is undergoing Dragon Transformation!

Chen Min is about to break the Limit-Breaking Hundred Meridians.

The pair of fatigued eyes in Shen Yiwei's expression bloomed with a ray of sharp light at this moment.

Immediately following, he hurriedly looked toward the Heaven's Chosen Trial Grounds.

The battle for the limit-break is about to begin.

Is Chen Yan prepared?

Chen Yan only began the Cultivation Technique of the Spirit Organs three days before entering the Heaven's Chosen Trial Grounds.

Even knowing Chen Yan's will is strong.

But in the end, Chen Yan is too far behind the other party.

At the same time.

Heaven and Earth were vast and dim, with one cold peak after another standing like ice hairpins.

The silver-white giant beast, with a body like a tiger and a size of a hundred meters, hissed repeatedly.

Its body began to show cracks, and the shadow of a giant dragon condensed upon it.

One dragon roar after another was spat out from its Mouth.

Endless dragon might overflowed throughout the entire Lao City Heaven's Chosen Trial Grounds; the space was vibrating, extremely majestic.

The youth in a Blood Dress held a Broken Sword and stepped through the high sky.

Behind, the Blood Dress Woman chased closely, slashing a Knife down at the youth.

The massive Knife shadow was vast and mighty, extending a trail of cyan air waves.

Chen Min looked back, and the Broken Sword in his hand swung out.

Boom!

Knife and sword collided, the tremor sweeping out.

The Blood Skirt Woman was instantly knocked flying away.

"Chen Min, what exactly are you trying to do!"

The Blood Skirt Woman shouted in a low voice, carrying Anger.

The Ice Spirit of Qingqiong Grade A can be produced when the Ice Bi undergoes Dragon Transformation.

But to obtain the Ice Spirit, one must wait for the Ice Bi to successfully complete its Dragon Transformation.

Chen Min at this moment is clearly intending to interrupt the Ice Bi's Dragon Transformation.

Chen Min's Mu Jin is calm; he walks step by step through the void until he arrives before the Ice Bi.

Roar!

The massive dragon roar carries with it fury.

The Ancient Beast instantly lunges to tear at Chen Min.

Hiss!

The massive Black Chains binding its body are suddenly pulled taut.

An avalanche descends ferociously.

The waves of snow surge down with the momentum of collapsing clouds and the power of toppling mountains and overturning seas.

Chen Min's Mu Jin is calm; with a single wave of his hand, a Jade Slip appears in his palm.

He slowly looks toward the Blood Skirt Woman behind him:

"Your Highness, it is said that Lu Mingxin of the Five Clans Lu Family only achieved Awakening at thirty, only achieved Divine Organ Casting at forty, and achieved Perfect Divine Organ Casting at sixty.

The world calls him a Waste, but it was on the very day he achieved Perfect Casting."

Chen Min's Mu Jin is calm, his Mu Guang containing a fighting spirit:

"But on the day he achieved the perfect Divine Organ, he reached the Hundred Meridians at sunrise, the Golden Body at sunset, and the Origin the following day."

The Blood Skirt Woman's breathing hitches, and in an instant, she is filled with extreme rage:

"You dare to lay a hand on the Ice Bi!"

"At this point, what use is it to ask me if I dare? I, Chen Min, do not even fear death."

Chen Min grips the Jade Slip; a halo permeates its surface like a misty veil, gradually converging and condensing into a Sword Shadow.

"Inside this Jade Slip is condensed one strike from my Father; one strike can slay the Ice Bi. I will not kill the Ice Bi, but I must have the Essence Blood from the moment of its Dragon Transformation."

Chen Min pauses, the Jade Slip dissolving completely into a Sword Shadow, with endless sword pressure condensed within.

"I could have reached the Hundred Meridians five years ago, but I did not, all for the sake of today.

Suppressing my own limits, bathing in Dragon Blood, to achieve the Golden Body in one day!"

Having said this, he is about to thrust the sword out.

"You dare!!!" the Blood Skirt Woman roars in anger, attacking with a Knife.

"Audacious!"

A grand voice suddenly resounds, and a Giant Hand instantly shrouds the sky above the Trial Ground.

"Luo Pu, you dare to strike at the Ice Bi!!!"

Endless pressure instantly descends in Suppression.

Clang!

The massive Array Disk shrouding the Trial Ground is squeezed until cracks appear; energy compressed to the extreme seeps through the cracks and instantly binds itself to Chen Min's body.

Boom, boom, boom!

Chen Min's body is squeezed until Blood Traces appear.

Clang!!!

Sounds of bones cracking resound.

Chen Min vomits blood, yet he laughs loudly:

"I, Chen Min, act against Heaven; if you can kill me, then kill me right here!"

His pupils become incomparably solemn, a surge of Scream rising in the depths of his eyes, only to be instantly suppressed by him.

His body, however, cannot help but tremble as he looks at the approaching Blood Skirt Woman:

"Do you understand? Pursuing a grand ambition is an intoxicating feeling; it makes me forget life and death, even though I am terrified to the core.

But my heart tells me I cannot retreat."

Buzz!

Outer Realm.

A sound of a sword rings out, and a massive Sword Shadow strikes, severing the Giant Hand.

"Chen Zhangyuan!" an angry voice resounds.

Invincible Son Chen Changyuan appears, his Mu Jin filled with Fierce Light; he extends a hand, and a scroll of contract slowly rolls out.

"The Ice Bi has already been sold to me, Luo Pu, by Xia Chenwang; it is in White Paper and black ink, with a blood seal—do you wish to see it?!"

Chen Changyuan shouts in a low voice.

Above the Sky, the man wearing a military uniform has his Mu Guang turn sharp in an instant; he stares fixedly at the contract in Chen Changyuan's hand, his whole body trembling.

Behind him, the incomparably enraged Luo Puxin and the others also freeze in place.

"Xia Chenwang!!!"

The Military Uniform Man roars, Anger rising in his heart, yet at this moment he slowly closes his eyes.

"He dared to sell the Ice Bi, he actually dared to sell it!

Great Xia General...!" he bellows.

Behind him, Luo Puxin speaks up immediately:

"Buzhang, watch your words!!!"

The Military Uniform Man, however, tilts his head back, eyes closed, filled with extreme Disappointment.

"This job as the Wushiwei Buzhang of Lao City, I, Lin Yu, will not do it anymore!"

He let out a Low Roar and turned to leave.

Luo Puxin and the others looked at Lin Yu, who was leaving alone, their expressions extremely ugly.

"I'm not doing this anymore either, Brother Lin Yu, wait for me!"

"Damn it, even selling the Ice Bi, what is there left to stay for in this Great Xia!"

"What is there not to dare say, what is there not to dare say, Great Xia is finished!"

One by one, the Elder Military Guards followed Lin Yu as he left.

Beside Luo Puxin, someone spoke up:

"Lao Luo, let's go together, let's follow Brother Lin Yu together."

Luo Puxin's expression was livid; he glanced at Lin Yu, who was determined to leave, and then slowly shook his head:

"Minister Lin Yu is disappointed to the extreme; Chief Lu Xunyang has been gone for five years, and everyone can no longer wait.

Minister Lin Yu likely wants to go to the Ancient God Forbidden Land to find him personally.

They feel that Great Xia is beyond saving.

I feel there is still hope, I will stay for now."

That person's breathing hitched, then he nodded:

"Then I will stay too."

Luo Puxin was somewhat surprised.

That person, however, laughed:

"Someone has to suffer, right?"

Luo Puxin nodded and said in a low voice:

"Rest assured, someone will stand up!"

"Who, Shen Yiwei?" that person asked strangely:

"Shen Yiwei, it's not that I'm saying anything, but having suffered such heavy injuries and being busy all day long,

his eyelids can barely stay open; it's already a miracle that he is still alive."

Luo Puxin shook his head and simply said:

"There is someone!"

Is there someone?

He did not know.

Facing a Chen Min like this, could Chen Yan...

He did not know.

But he felt there was hope.

He did not know why.

…………

In the distance, the Chen Family's Invincible Son Chen Changyuan watched all of this with cold eyes.

"Lu Xunyang?" Chen Changyuan's brows knit together:

"No matter how powerful he is, having stayed in the Ancient God Forbidden Land for five years, he has likely already been transformed into an Ancient Divine Beast."

It was precisely at this moment.

Roar!

A shrill shriek resounded.

Above the Yun Tian.

The dragon shadow formed by the Yun Xu shattered instantly.

Inside the Tianjiao Trial.

A sword fell, and Dragon Blood poured from the Heaven.

Chen Min bathed in Dragon Blood.

Buzz!

Beside him, a mist appeared.

In the distance, the Blood Skirt Woman's body trembled, and a mist appeared before her as well.

Within the Extreme Cold Northern Lands, the fingers of Yu Saixian, who was arranging her hair, froze as she felt the restlessness of the Yin Zhe within her body.

Chen Min's Mu Jin was calm; he sat cross-legged, and a Cold Intent erupted from his entire body.

He looked toward the mist and saw the blurred figures of Yu Saixian and the Blood Skirt Woman, and saw the Newcomer who had just had their Awakening three months ago.

Suddenly, his Mu Guang narrowed slightly, becoming surprised.
