Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 417 The Twelve Yuan Chen Sword Formation: Snatching Chestnuts from the Fire!
Emperor Xihuan slowly rose and surveyed the current situation with his gaze.

A group of female swordswomen surrounded a young man, their diverse sword intents dominating the eastern position, forming an extreme sharpness.

In the West, a terrifying dark cloud formed by countless Gu worms lingers for a long time, and one can vaguely see a giant humanoid monster lurking in the center of the Gu worms.

In the south, a tidal wave of countless zombies and ghosts surged, and in the center of the swirling formation, a gaunt old man sneered at him.

However, Emperor Xihuan's gaze ultimately fell on the north, where he was most wary of the person who led his troops. A monster with the head of a jackal and the body of a dragon had sharp eyes.

This military spirit possesses the gaze of an eagle and the maw of a wolf. If we kill him, we will have the chance to shed the final jackal's head and become a true dragon.

The other three's target might be the Heavenly Ring, but this traitor, Seven Kill Martial Lord, also wants to kill him.

However, Emperor Xihuan was mistaken. If given the opportunity, the other three would also want to kill him.

After all, this is a treasure chest.

Subsequently, a question arose in Emperor Xihuan's mind.

So, one is missing?
But upon further reflection, although the opponent's move was powerful, it was indeed no match for these four people.

"I have reigned for three thousand years and received the mandate of heaven for thirty generations." Emperor Xihuan, his Xuanhuang True Qi drawing upon the Heavenly Mandate Dragon, cleared a space and continued, "So, where exactly did you all come from?"

"Although the world is vast and I have seen many talented people, I have never seen anyone like you."

Emperor Xihuan now doubts their origins.

He had seen geniuses before; in fact, during one of the Heavenly Rings, a person with great fortune obtained the Hidden Dragon Destiny. Before the Heavenly Ring descended, his strength had not yet recovered, and he almost killed him.

But in the end, his destiny prevailed.

Even so, the strength of that person with great fortune is worlds apart from that of the four people currently in the room.

These four people seemed more like visitors from outer space.

The four of them did not answer his question, but just stared at him coldly.

They didn't have time to waste words with Emperor Xihuan; their goal from beginning to end was the Heavenly Ring.

There is only one Heavenly Ring, but all their job quests require the Heavenly Ring as a job material.

Only one person from each of the five factions is destined to complete the class quest.

Seeing that the four people did not speak, Emperor Xihuan smiled and continued to guide the Heavenly Ring on his own.

As the Heavenly Ring drew closer, the colossal body of the Heavenly Dragon expanded, its coiled form gradually enveloping the entire palace.

The space occupied by the four people was forcibly pushed aside.

At the same time, Emperor Xihuan's power was completely unleashed, restoring him to his original strength.

All four people present noticed this, but their expressions did not change.

They had anticipated the fourth tier.

Behind the leader of the Sword Sect was a female swordswoman dressed in a blue cloud robe and white rainbow skirt, with dragon patterns wrapped around the sword on her lower body.

Its sword intent rose steadily, transforming into an overwhelming sword aura that overwhelmed Emperor Xi Huan's Heavenly Mandate Dragon, causing it to retreat.

From within the cloud of Gu worms, a golden light emerged, revealing a golden centipede, its entire body golden and resembling a dragon.

Despite its small and delicate appearance, barely the size of a palm, it took a big bite out of the Heavenly Dragon.

Amidst the tide of zombies and ghosts, a zombie dressed in a dragon robe emerged from the separated torrent of corpses and ghosts. In its blood-red eyes resided a vengeful dragon constructed from feng shui principles.

With a single gulp, a surge of malevolent energy erupted from its mouth, staining a portion of the Heavenly Dragon black.

The most ferocious of them all should be the Jackal-headed Dragon. As the Seven Kill Martial Lord raised his battle flag, the Jackal-headed Dragon's body instantly swelled up, carrying a phantom prefecture on its back.

Greed surged rapidly in the jackal-headed dragon's eyes, and it bit off the right claw of the Heavenly Destiny True Dragon in one bite, swallowing it down in a few gulps.

If Emperor Xihuan hadn't acted quickly, they might have been bitten again.

At this moment, Emperor Xihuan's face had turned completely gloomy.

He thought that once he regained his strength, he would be able to turn the tide, but he never expected that these four people would be comparable to him.

He had absolutely no chance of winning against four opponents.

He didn't think the four of them would fight amongst themselves before they obtained the Ring of Heaven.

I suppressed my thoughts; there's no point in thinking about these things now.

Once he obtains the Ring of Heaven, his strength will increase even further.

We can figure out a way to defeat them one by one when the time comes.

The Heavenly Ring landed in front of him, gradually solidifying from nothingness.

As the last bit of solidity coalesced, an unparalleled aura instantly emerged from the Heavenly Ring.

He reached out to grab it, and everyone else moved.

Guo Ming was closest to Emperor Xi Huan and acted the fastest.

"The Twelve Yuan Chen Sword Formation!"

"The Twelve Earthly Branches Sword Stance!!"

"rise!!!"

All that could be seen were sword shadows filling the sky, and an inverted river of swords covering the entire firmament.

In the Twelve Zodiac Sword Formation, each of the twelve animals—rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig—corresponds to a flying sword.

This is the result of the twelve high-quality, superior-grade consumables that Chu Danqing originally gave to the Guo family.

The transaction fees alone amounted to 60,000 amusement park points, not to mention the purchase costs. And these costs have now become part of Chu Danqing's strength.

Guo Ming single-handedly broke the five opposing camps, first using sword formations and sword momentum to forcefully block the Jiaowen Spirit Sword Woman, the Dragon-like Golden Silkworm Gu, the Dragon-vengeful Emperor Corpse, and the Jackal-headed Dragon Soul.

And this was just the beginning. He directly led Chu Danqing and Da Bao, used the Su Nu Sword to sever the Heavenly Mandate True Dragon, and fought his way to Emperor Xi Huan despite the Xuanhuang True Qi.

The whole process happened in the blink of an eye.

In addition, they lived very close to Emperor Xihuan.

It was precisely for this reason that the four members of the opposing camp did not suspect that Chu Danqing was lurking nearby; they believed that Emperor Xihuan was a hidden dragon with a wood element destiny.

After all, they had been misled by the substitution technique, believing that the Hidden Dragon of the Wood Element had not been obtained by the Dimensional Apostles of Dimension Paradise, but was in the natives.

This ever-widening information gap led to this success.

The spirit of the Plain Maiden Sword appeared behind Guo Ming, and the most powerful sword energy in history burst forth from the sniper rifle, instantly striking Emperor Xi Huan.

Emperor Xihuan used his Xuanhuang True Qi to resist, and although he managed to block it, he also had to take two steps back.

These two steps are the most fatal.

Because Guo Ming had already brought Chu Danqing and Da Bao to the front of the Heavenly Ring.

Chu Danqing caught the Heavenly Ring with one hand, and activated all available active skills and effects with the other.

Gathering of Righteousness + Rainbow Radiance of the Seven-Colored Radiant Staff + Dragon Vein Power of the Nine Cauldrons Diagram

Furthermore, its own health points plummeted to 50%.

This happened so fast that by the time everyone reacted, the Heavenly Ring was already in Chu Danqing's hands.

Chu Danqing only saw that the mission was completed, but he didn't have time to check anything else, because according to the plan, he was going to run away next.

Kumashigeka was already prepared. All the scribes unleashed all their skills at the start, the generals guided the army's momentum with their own strength, and the soldiers raised their shields.

Seeing this, Guo Ming swung his hand and threw Chu Danqing and Da Bao away.

The timing of the appearance of the Military Force Master was just right. Six large hands caught Chu Danqing and Da Bao, and then twisted into a shape similar to a catapult.

"Release!" Xiong Zhigang gave the order, and with a loud bang, the Military Force Master exploded instantly.

Chu Danqing and Da Bao were accelerated to the extreme.

Da Bao twisted his body in mid-air, unleashing Bloodlust Frenzy, Fearless Before Gods, Tearful Claws, and 10% health remaining.

It has three layers of Frenzy, two layers of Fearlessness, and two layers of Killing Form. It's a pity that it lacks one layer of Fearlessness, otherwise it would have three layers of Killing Form.

The extra layer of frenzy comes from Chu Danqing's passive skill, Beast Hormone.

召唤物生命值低于50%、30%、10%时，分别触发五维属性+10%、攻击力+30%、濒死时狂暴5分钟。

Da Bao's combat power is not affected by the decrease in health points; on the contrary, it becomes terrifyingly strong.

He carved a bloody path through the air for Chu Danqing. Even a level 3 fighter could be torn to shreds by Da Bao at this moment.

Da Bao, transformed into a bloodthirsty shadow, led Chu Danqing and the Heavenly Ring out of the Heavenly Palace as the Military Force Master self-destructed.

Before anyone could react, the person had already disappeared.

Upon closer inspection, Xiong Zhigang, along with all the civil and military officials, had vanished.

Only Guo Ming remained.

The Dragon-Patterned Spirit Sword Woman, the Dragon-Faced Golden Silkworm Gu, the Dragon-Grievous Emperor Corpse, and the Jackal-Headed Dragon Army Soul all attacked simultaneously, and the four fourth-tier beings shattered the Twelve Yuan Chen Sword Formation in an instant.

In the critical moment, Emperor Xi Huan made a move. He activated the vast Xuanhuang True Qi and the Heavenly Mandate True Dragon to protect Chu Danqing who had fled and also blocked the attack.

But a ferocious look appeared on his face, clearly indicating that this action was not his intention.

As Guo Ming looked at the opening left by Emperor Xi Huan after he blocked the attack for him, Chu Danqing's "Gathering Righteousness" skill came to mind.

The thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately detonated the Twelve Yuan Chen Flying Swords, further widening the opening.

Without any hesitation, he flew on his sword and broke through the blockade, fleeing in the exact opposite direction from Chu Danqing.

The mission is complete. Now all we have to do is wait for Chu Danqing's bodyguard to summon him over.

Emperor Xihuan, now free from the effects of the "Gathering of Righteousness" buff, watched Guo Ming's departing figure with eyes blazing with fury.

The other four men were eyeing him menacingly.

"I was also tricked by them," Emperor Xihuan immediately said. "We can cooperate to find that brat's location."

"Instead of letting those scheming scoundrels profit, it would be better for the five of us to cooperate temporarily."

"Retrieve the Heavenly Ring first, then we'll fight," Emperor Xihuan said.

The four exchanged glances, and Seven Kill Martial Lord was the first to nod: "Okay."

The remaining three echoed and agreed.

But what they really wanted was to get it and then run away.

One against five is definitely no match, since each of them only has one Tier 4 summon.

The trump card is, of course, a separate matter.

"In that case, let's set off without delay." Emperor Xi Huan understood that the longer the delay, the more likely it was that unexpected problems would arise.

We need to retrieve the Ring of Heaven as soon as possible.
