Chapter 277: Chapter 277: The Melee Begins
Translator: 549690339
The spiritual energy surged, like a violent wave.
The mere aftereffects were enough to cause many others around to lose their footing, hastily retreating.
A deafening explosion echoed in the air, the two who had sneak-attacked Li Haofeng were not their opponents even when they teamed up, and were directly blown away.
Not only that, the one who had tried to lay hands on the Frenzy Demon Stones in the stone trough also didn’t get away.
Li Haofeng’s strategies were incredibly ruthless. After simultaneously repelling the two opponents, a long spear appeared in his right hand at who knows what moment, and he thrust it fiercely at the man trying to sneak-attack the stone trough before the latter could reach it. The spear was only an inch away from the man.
That one inch managed to totally halt the man.
The spear radiated a terrifyingly sharp aura, as if it would puncture the very air.
This immense power made the sneak attacker drenched in a cold sweat.
You must be joking, if he gets hit by this, he would probably be impaled directly.
However, everything only took place within a flash of a moment. Everyone could feel how strong Li Haofeng was. The others who had been thinking about intervening didn’t dare to act rashly anymore.
After all, they were only trying to hold back the others, not risking their lives. If they failed and lost their lives, it would really not be worth it.
Meanwhile, having completed the engraved aura, Li Haofeng sneered at the people around him and walked directly into the secret realm.
“What? They just let him in?”
“What the hell are these people doing? They don’t even try to stop him. If there had been a couple more people at that time, I guarantee Li Haofeng wouldn’t have been able to go in.”
“Humph, why didn’t you go then?”
“I’m not the people near the second secret realm…”
Jiang Xiaobai glanced at the man, chuckling silently to himself.
If this bastard was talking to him, he guaranteed this jerk would never see tomorrow’s sun.
After Li Haofeng entered the secret realm, a commotion broke out amongst those surrounding the altar. From the surrounding of the first to fifth secret realm, various degrees of fights broke out.
The journey to the gate of the secret realm wasn’t particularly difficult. Finding an opportunity to sneak in amidst this chaos was quite easy.
The real challenge was in how to block others’ attacks and successfully engrave the aura.
After all, at such a moment, everyone would drop whatever they were doing and gang up on that person.
Thankfully, there was a small tunnel leading to the entrance of the secret realm, able to block attacks from many directions. At most, only five people could attack from here at the same time.
As more and more began to rush forward, finding opportunities to start engraving auras, some were ultimately driven away or even killed on the spot due to their lack of strength.
The scene was extremely intense for a while.
As Jiang Xiaobai stood on the side witnessing everything, he had already made up his mind.
“The aura engraving only takes about five seconds, which means I have 5 seconds to work with. Hmmm, isn’t it a bit too much time for me?”
Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but smile to himself.
He had just covertly tested it. After the mysterious power for aura engraving descended, there would be no repulsion from the surroundings. He could completely meddle underground.
For example, he could steal the Frenzy Demon Stones you put in the stone trough, or even if he didn’t steal them, it would be quite easy for him to shock them out.
Once he figured this out, a cold look flashed in Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes as he casually glanced towards Xiao Wuwei standing indifferent at the fifth secret realm.
From the beginning, his target was the fifth secret realm.
The charge for this place was ten Frenzy Demon Stones, not like what he’d heard before, that over twenty Frenzy Demon Stones would be enough to enter all five realms.
Seeing this, the smile in Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes widened.
“Ten Frenzy Demon Stones for one entry, if I steal your Frenzy Demon Stones, let’s see how many you have. Then, I’ll bleed you dry little by little.”
Jiang Xiaobai sneered inwardly.
Just then, another person successfully broke through the obstacles and entered the first secret realm. This was the place that required the least expenditure and was relatively easier.
Now, Xiao Yuwei was located right next to the first secret realm, she was planning to start from here.
“Since you are here too, help this princess keep an eye on the surroundings. If anyone dares to block me, you can also give them a hand.”
Xiao Yuwei calmly said, “Consider it as a chance for you to practice.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth twitched, ‘well, what a practice opportunity.’
The excuse she found was quite impressive.
“You sure are something, to be able to say that with a straight face,” Jiang Xiaobai snorted.
“Humph, do you think that without you, this princess will have no means of entering?”
Xiao Yuwei sneered.
“Get ready, this princess shall be the next one to enter.”
Upon her command, the five people next to Xiao Yuwei instantly released their auras, particularly the old man in the initial stage of Dividing the Gods, whose aura immediately silenced quite a few people around them.
They didn’t think they could combat an expert of the Dividing the Gods stage even if they joined forces.
And everyone knew that this was Xiao Yuwei, the Seventeenth Princess of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. Her position was high and noble. Anyone who dared to lay a hand on her would certainly be hunted down to the death by the strong ones of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty once they left here.
Therefore, for a while, nobody dared to block the way, everyone stood still without moving an inch.
But contrary to this, Xiao Yuwei’s expression turned even more solemn.
What she was on guard against, was never these people.
Sure enough, the moment Xiao Yuwei placed three Frenzy Demon Stones into the stone trough, a figure darted out from behind, shockingly, a person in the initial stage of Dividing the Gods.
Without even thinking, she knew this was a surprise gift from those several princes of the dynasty.
“How dare you disturb the princess! Die for me!”
The old man by Xiao Yuwei’s side snorted, his hands formed into claws, attacking the oncoming person.
In the air, after tens of moves, the attacker fled away directly.
First contact, they were merely testing each other.
However, Xiao Yuwei’s aura was still not completely engraved. Behind the old man, another figure appeared.
The man aimed for Xiao Yuwei, who was in the middle of her aura engraving.
Because the timing was excellent, the most powerful warrior on Xiao Yuwei’s side was not present. The old man could not respond to this new attack.
Seeing this, everyone thought Xiao Yuwei was going to miss this opportunity.
But to everyone’s surprise, a bracelet suddenly appeared in Xiao Yuwei’s hand.
“You bastard, how is this possible!”
The attacker upon seeing this, cried out in alarm and fled without a second thought.
Seeing this, everyone sighed.
