Chapter 423: Trapped
Boom!
"Very good!"
He Bo was full of killing intent, the golden blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth making him even more furious. He had forgotten how many years it had been since he was injured.
He didn't expect that today, he would actually be schemed against by someone. The other party's cultivation was not as good as his own, yet relying on external means, he injured him.
This made the arrogant him difficult to accept for a moment, the indignation and killing intent in his eyes like substance.
Ji Ying looked at the other party, his expression also becoming increasingly serious. Regarding the other party's anger, he didn't care at all; what he was thinking about was how to suppress the other party.
The exchange just now, the other party's cultivation was still above his own, and the other party's means were not at all inferior to his.
If it weren't for him borrowing the Fusang Divine Tree and the geographical advantage of this place, wanting to injure the other party would truly be a pipe dream.
However, even if he injured the other party, he was still far from suppressing the other party.
Who won and who lost, they would only know after continuing to fight.
However, just when the two were about to fight, suddenly both their expressions moved. They had already sensed that this grotto-heaven hidden deep underground had already had a third person arrive, and not just one person.
In this way, the two also stopped. After all, regarding these newly arrived people, no one knew whether they were friends or foes.
However, both of them also understood in their hearts that the arrivals could not be friends, and even if they were originally friends, now they felt it was impossible to have their previous relationship.
Regarding the Taiyi Divine Emperor's inheritance, no one would let go. The two could only look at the outside of the grotto-heaven alertly.
Before long, four figures gradually walked into the grotto-heaven.
Seeing these four figures, the two's expressions were different.
Ji Ying's heart was shocked. The aura on the four people was not human. Instantly, he also understood that the arrivals were from the Divine Court side, and his heart suddenly sank.
In this way, the human race side had only him, while he had to face five experts from the Divine Court side at the same realm.
Even if he borrowed the geographical advantage and the Fusang Divine Tree, it was difficult to resist.
The four newly arrived deities, sensing their auras, were not inferior to this He Bo, especially the black-robed one at the head, who was even more unfathomable like him.
"High Priest!"
He Bo's expression changed several times before he bowed and saluted.
Immediately, his gaze looked toward the other three people, his eyes flickering. The four suddenly arriving deities made He Bo's heart feel the same as Ji Ying's, and he even felt more pressure than Ji Ying.
Because he was clear about the High Priest's prestige.
Wanting to compete with the High Priest was truly very difficult. However, he looked at the three people behind the High Priest; he was also very familiar with these three: Azure Bird, Hundred Ghosts, and Heavenly Mountain.
The cultivation of the three deities was about the same as his. If these three were here to assist the High Priest, he wouldn't have any chance at all.
Of course, He Bo quickly recovered. He didn't believe that these three were willing to be driven by the High Priest, especially the Azure Bird, who was of the Demon God lineage.
Taiyi Divine Emperor's Divine Core and inheritance—he didn't believe the other party would give up. After all, the current Demon God lineage was becoming increasingly weak in the Divine Court. If they could obtain the Taiyi Divine Emperor's inheritance, the Demon God lineage would have a chance to rise again.
He believed the other party would definitely not give up.
As for Hundred Ghosts and Heavenly Mountain, the two deities naturally would not be willing to give up. In this way, it was not that there was no chance.
If the four joined forces, perhaps they could exclude the High Priest from this line. Only by forcing the High Priest back would they have a chance to obtain this Taiyi Divine Emperor's inheritance.
Thinking of this, He Bo also stabilized.
The High Priest and the four entered the grotto-heaven and saw the magnificent palace, as well as that huge Taiyi statue, all full of excitement.
Especially the High Priest, looking at that familiar statue, his eyes were somewhat dazed, as if recalling something.
"Divine Emperor Lord."
He whispered a sentence in his mouth.
Immediately, he looked at Ji Ying: "Human! You are a descendant of the Ji clan."
Being pointed out his identity by the High Priest, Ji Ying was also shocked. He didn't expect that he had hidden so deeply, yet he was still discovered, and the one who discovered him was actually a deity of the Divine Court.
"Hmph! Just by the Ji clan, you dare to covet Divine Emperor Lord's inheritance. Overestimating your capabilities."
The High Priest looked at him with full disgust before moving his gaze away. Clearly, he didn't put this person in his eyes at all.
"The High Priest is right. This place is my Divine Emperor's inheritance place; how can this lowly human set foot here?"
"Why not just behead him first?"
He Bo suddenly suggested with a smile.
The moment the High Priest spoke, Ji Ying felt something was wrong. In his heart, he had originally thought about whether he could use the discord between the deities to let them compete with each other first.
After all, as far as he knew, the Divine Court was also fighting for itself, not to mention this was the inheritance of the Divine Court's Divine Emperor; several people must have the intention to occupy it.
It was a pity that these deities were not stupid, so Ji Ying did not dare to sit and wait for death. The moment He Bo's voice fell, he moved.
His figure sped toward the palace.
"You dare!"
"You're courting death!"
Seeing Ji Ying's sudden movement, He Bo and the other deities' expressions changed wildly, and then they roared, the four figures chasing after him without distinction of order.
It was just that they didn't see the slight curl of Ji Ying's mouth.
And just at this moment, suddenly the palace boomed, and it changed all at once.
"Not good!"
Everyone's expressions changed wildly, because they discovered they were in another space, a magma world full of infinite flames. In the sky, there were also constant purple flames, turning into meteors, falling from the sky, smashing toward them.
These meteor fireballs made them all feel danger.
"What is this place?"
The deities quickly dodged, their expressions extremely ugly.
"This might be the inheritance test left by Divine Emperor Lord. Everyone, don't forget, what is Divine Emperor Lord's original form?"
The Azure Bird said with a grave expression. Once this was said, everyone also understood. Divine Emperor Lord's original form was a Three-Legged Golden Crow, an ancient divine beast, a top-tier bloodline between heaven and earth. In terms of foundation, compared to their Innate Deities, it was even a few notches higher.
This world of flames was very likely left by Taiyi Divine Emperor, for the sake of testing.
As for that human, they didn't think about it at all. After all, this space, even for them, felt tricky and dangerous. They didn't believe that the other party could arrange such means.
"Damn it! Where did that human run off to?"
Suddenly, He Bo discovered that among them, there was actually no human. Clearly, the other party also entered the palace and triggered the array; why did they fall into this flame world, while the former did not?
"Find him! Find him and immediately make a move."
The Azure Bird, upon hearing this, also frowned, his expression somewhat ugly. The situation right now had already exceeded their expectations. Not only did they not see the human, but even the High Priest did not come in.
Did the High Priest know long ago about the test space left by Divine Emperor Lord, which was why he didn't move?
If this was the case, then it would be troublesome. They were trapped in this flame space and couldn't get out. If the inheritance was obtained by the High Priest, they would get nothing. ===== CHAPTER 424 =====
