One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

His spiritual senses, which had been hovering above the main hall, suddenly turned towards the back of the crowd.

That invisible greed reached its peak at that moment.

"Originally, I intended to choose the best vessel from among the champions of this competition to make do."

Xu Fu's voice revealed an almost perverse lust.

The entire temple was flashing red light intensely.

"but."

"I never expected that Heaven would be so kind to me!"

"Among you ants..."

The voice seemed to transform into an invisible giant hand, pointing towards the quiet girl who was being shielded behind Zhang Lingyu.

"There was such a perfect body hidden there!"

"With her, why should I need to fuse with those three mortal bodies?!"

"She alone is enough to contain my entire divine soul!!!"

"boom!!!"

Xu Fu finished speaking.

An overwhelming and terrifying suction force swept out directly from behind that huge throne!

The target has been locked on Chen Duo!

"Oh no! Protect Junior Uncle/Chen Duo!"

Zhang Chulan and Wang Ye, their eyes blazing with fury, stepped in front without hesitation to block their way.

A sudden gust of wind arose.

The sweeping, blood-red suction force was like a giant, materialized python, its jaws wide open, heading straight for Chen Duo!

"Don't think about it!"

Zhang Lingyu reacted extremely quickly.

He didn't even turn around; he simply pressed down with his hand behind his back.

"The Azure Pools of the Northern Frontier!"

In an instant, the pitch-black Yin Five Thunders erected a black lightning wall several meters high in front of Chen Duo.

Almost at the same time.

A brilliant light shone from beneath Wang Ye's feet, and he rapidly moved his hands in front of his chest:

"Chaotic clapper! Eight Gates Transport!"

Time and space were forcibly distorted at this moment, attempting to directly transfer the rushing blood light elsewhere.

Zhang Chulan, however, showed no mercy whatsoever.

Knowing full well that this old monster was no ordinary person, he poured all his Qi into the blade.

The purple-gold lightning seal on the hilt of the sword burst forth with dazzling light!

"Get back here, you little brat!"

Zhang Chulan gripped the sword with both hands and cleaved Mount Hua in two!

A purple-gold blade of light, over ten meters long, carrying the power to cleave through everything, slashed fiercely at the blood-red giant python!

A combined attack from several top young talents!

Boom!!!

The deafening explosion echoed through the hall, and the blinding light made everyone instinctively close their eyes.

Zhang Chulan gritted his teeth and gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with both hands.

He was prepared to be blasted away and cough up blood by the power of this ancient monster.

however.

Several seconds passed.

The expected overwhelming counterforce did not materialize.

That blood-red light, seemingly ferocious and capable of devouring even space itself.

When they collided with the attack line they had formed.

It actually... shattered.

It shattered into countless red specks of light, extinguishing in mid-air like fireworks.

"..."

An eerie silence fell over the main hall.

Zhang Chulan remained frozen in place, still in the posture of raising his sword to strike downwards.

He blinked, looked at the watermelon knife in his hand, and then turned to look at Wang Ye beside him.

"Old Wang..."

Zhang Chulan felt a huge sense of disappointment.

"This...that's it?"

"I thought that if this old monster made a move, we'd all have to break a few ribs."

"Why does his ultimate move seem... weak?"

Wang Ye stopped his movements, rubbed his wrists, and relaxed his tense shoulders.

He stared at the still-flickering crimson runes around him, a flash of realization crossing his eyes:

"We were all intimidated by his loud voice."

"If Xu Fu truly possessed extraordinary abilities, why would he have lingered in this cold, damp underground for a thousand years?"

"He's just a remnant soul now, bound to this temple. He can only exert some mental pressure through the formation."

"If a fight really breaks out..."

Wang Ye chuckled:

"Hehe, well, that's hard to say."

Hearing Wang Ye's insightful analysis...

Zhang Chulan's initial fear quickly disappeared.

He immediately switched to that familiar, shameless smugness.

"Hey! You scared me!"

Zhang Chulan slung the knife over his shoulder and swaggered forward a couple of steps.

He pointed to the dome, his face full of disdain:

"I'm telling you, Xu the big liar."

"You have quite a loud voice, but is that all the skill you've got?"

"Have you been trapped in this rock for too long? Are you suffering from calcium deficiency and osteoporosis?"

"With your empty promises and lack of substance, you think you can devour my junior uncle? I think you should save your energy and continue to be a load-bearing wall here!"

Faced with Zhang Chulan's unbridled close-range attack.

The red light around the main hall flickered intensely, clearly indicating that this powerful figure from a thousand years ago was extremely angry.

"Ignorant brat!!!"

Xu Fu's furious roar resounded:

"Since I dare to show myself, how could I be without means?"

"My spirit body is indeed unable to leave. But so what?!"

"As long as we have these two unparalleled, perfect divine materials, crushing you ants will be as easy as snapping our fingers!"

The words had barely left his mouth!

In front of the altar.

The two men who emerged from the giant bronze coffin finally moved.

Chapter 399 Today, whoever dares to run will die!

The man, dressed in dark patterned armor and with his long hair tied back, simply took a step forward without any expression.

"Click".

The moment that foot landed.

Zhang Chulan, who had just been mocking, froze completely with a smile.

"boom!"

Zhang Chulan felt a sudden weight on his shoulders.

He didn't even have time to react before his knees buckled and he collapsed heavily to the ground!

His knees smashed several cracks into the hard white jade floor tiles.

It wasn't just him!

Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing, Zhang Lingyu...

Even the American and Japanese teams in the distance.

At that moment, everyone felt that tangible, terrifying pressure that made even breathing feel like it was burning!

This is not the kind of intimidating force that Xu Fu used to bluff!

This is the ultimate killing aura emanating from the corpse puppet!
