Chapter 1175
Second Heaven and Earth
Hearing Zhuowen's words of praise, Zhuo Tian revealed a flattered expression. Zhuowen's image had long been deified in the hearts of many members of the Zhuo Family. Even though Zhuo Tian and Zhuowen were of the same generation, and in terms of seniority, Zhuowen was still Zhuo Tian's cousin, but Zhuo Tian still treated Zhuowen as if he was facing an elder of the family, and even showed more restraint.
Smiling and nodding at Zhuo Tian, Zhuowen's gaze fell on Zhuo Xiang 'er and Zhuo Meixue on the other side, and said with a smile, "What about the two of you?"
Hearing this, Zhuo Xiang 'er and Zhuo Meixue looked at each other and released their respective dragon souls.
Zhuo Xiang 'er's dragon soul was the same as Zhuo Tian's, it had also reached the third grade, and was called the Butterfly Fragrance Dragon. This dragon's appearance was extremely gorgeous and colorful, like a butterfly dancing among flowers. Moreover, this dragon's body emitted an invisible fragrance that had the effect of causing hallucinations and hypnosis.
The quality of Zhuo Meixue's dragon soul was inferior to Zhuo Xiang 'er's and Zhuo Tian's, it was only a second grade dragon soul. It was a huge dragon with ice and snow lingering around its body, and its might was not bad.
"The dragon souls you have awakened are not bad. The Azure Dragon Source around the Azure Dragon Hall is extremely beneficial to your dragon souls," Zhuowen said with a smile.
Zhuo Tian and the other two looked at each other and nodded solemnly, their eyes filled with excitement.
"Big brother Hantian, grandfather!
I'm about to go to the Second Heaven of the Azure Dragon Hall. Once I pass it, the Azure Dragon Hall will unlock more functions, and I can even choose a rather generous reward from there. "Zhuowen slowly stood up and said with a faint smile.
"The Second Heaven?
Zhuowen, from what you said, the Second Heaven should be an extremely dangerous place. If you can't pass it, what will the consequences be? "Lü Hantian asked with a frown.
Zhuowen said with a chuckle, "The consequence of not being able to pass it is death. At that time, the Azure Dragon Hall will choose a new successor."
"Dead?" The pupils of the surrounding crowd shrunk. Worry surged in their eyes as they looked at Zhuo Wen.
"The price is so high?" Lü Hantian and Zhuo Xiangding looked at each other and frowned.
"Big Brother Zhuo!
Can't we not challenge it? "Miao Lv's beautiful eyes were filled with nervousness as she twisted her hands together.
Lv Yitao, Luo Xing, and Qing Lian also revealed worried expressions. The reason why they were able to enter the Azure Dragon Palace to cultivate was all because of Zhuo Wen. If Zhuo Wen died, then they might be chased out by the power of the Azure Dragon Palace, which would not benefit them at all.
Zhuowen shook his head and said indifferently, "If you don't pay a price and take a certain risk, how can you obtain more power?"
Seeing Zhuowen say this, everyone knew that Zhuowen had already made up his mind, so no one came forward to persuade him.
Lü Hantian and Zhuo Xiangding cautiously patted Zhuowen's shoulder and said: "Zhuowen!
Be careful. "
"Big Brother Hantian, Grandfather!"
At this moment, I know that my life is very tough, and I won't die so easily. "Zhuowen grinned.
After saying that, Zhuowen walked out of the hall and arrived at the huge plaza in front of the hall. In front of the plaza, there was a stone tablet that was dozens of feet tall. On the stone tablet, there were three bold and powerful words, 'Azure Dragon Hall'.
Last time, the figure of the Azure Dragon Daoist had appeared in this plaza. Following the guidance of the Azure Dragon Daoist, he, Zhuowen, had entered the first layer of the world to undergo the trial. This time, he planned to enter the second layer of the world.
Sure enough, the moment Zhuowen arrived at the plaza, the clouds and mist that lingered in the plaza began to churn violently. Then, they gathered into a stalwart figure in the air above the plaza.
This stalwart figure was the image of a middle-aged man. He wore a loose robe and a feathered crown on his head. His eyes were like the moon and stars. Countless dragon shadows swept out from this stalwart figure and circled around him. It looked extremely shocking, and this person was the shadow of the Azure Dragon Daoist.
"You're here again. This time, are you preparing to enter the second layer of the world?" The Azure Dragon Daoist said indifferently.
Zhuowen nodded and said: "Senior, please accept my fist."
"The second layer of the world is filled with dangers. Even low-level Emperor realm experts have a high chance of dying. Even mid-level Emperor realm experts have a high chance of dying. Only high-level Emperor realm experts have a 655% chance of passing. Your cultivation is only at the peak of the Heavenly Venerable Realm. Although your battle strength is comparable to the third layer of the Emperor realm, the chances of passing the second layer of the world are not high.
Do you still want to try? "The Azure Dragon Daoist glanced at Zhuowen indifferently, his gaze as deep as the sea.
"Try!
Why wouldn't I try? "Zhuowen said indifferently.
The Azure Dragon Daoist revealed a smile and said: "You're bold!
Then I'll send you to the second layer of the world. "
As he spoke, the Azure Dragon Daoist waved his sleeve. A surge of milky white light burst out and enveloped Zhuowen.
Zhuowen only felt a surge of spatial power acting on his body. Then, he felt his vision turn black and the scene in front of him changed.
At this moment, Zhuowen was no longer in the square outside the Azure Dragon Hall. What appeared before him was a blue sky, thousands of miles of white clouds, and a feeling of constantly swaying.
Zhuowen only then realized that he was lying on the deck of a ship. The feeling of swaying was transmitted from this ship.
Zhuo Wen slowly stood up. Only then did he discover that the ship he was on was located in the middle of a lake. The lake where the ship was located was extremely large, and the surroundings of the lake were covered in dense, verdant forests.
The ship was rather large. It had a total of three floors, and Zhuowen was lying on the top of the third floor.
The clanging sound of weapons clashing resounded, immediately attracting Zhuowen's attention. Then, Zhuowen's gaze focused, and discovered that on the first floor of the ship, there were actually many bloody corpses. The blood on the deck had gathered into a rather terrifying stream, looking extremely terrifying.
On the deck, the only ones who were still alive were three people. These three people were two men and one woman. One woman and one man were struggling to block another man's attack. Obviously, this man and woman should be a couple.
In front of the couple was a thin man wearing a ghost mask. The ghost mask on the man's face had the word 'X' drawn on its forehead.
Lying on the third deck, Zhuowen looked at the battle below with interest. Because the man wearing the ghost mask had his back facing Zhuowen and was focused on dealing with a couple, he did not notice Zhuowen.
Although the couple was facing Zhuowen, the two of them were already exhausted from running for their lives under the attacks of the man in the ghost mask. How could they have the energy to raise their heads and look in Zhuowen's direction?
Therefore, this also led to the three people fighting not noticing Zhuowen at all when he was lying on the third deck. They were still brazenly watching Zhuowen.
Zhuowen could tell at a glance that the cultivation of the man in the ghost mask was around the advanced stage of the Heavenly Venerable Realm. The cultivation of the couple was much weaker, around the early stage of the Heavenly Venerable Realm. Logically speaking, two early stage Heavenly Venerable Realm warriors should not be in such a sorry state against a late stage Heavenly Venerable Realm warrior.
However, the man in the ghost mask was not simple. He was very powerful. Although his cultivation was at the advanced stage of the Heavenly Venerable Realm, his combat strength was probably comparable to that of an ordinary peak Heavenly Venerable Realm warrior. Against this couple, the outcome would be a crushing defeat.
The couple was in an extremely sorry state at the moment. Under the attacks of the man in the ghost mask, they were flustered and retreated in a panic. From time to time, more wounds would appear on their bodies, and fresh blood would gush out. Looking at their weakened auras and injuries, it would not be long before they died.
"Tenth Ultimate, who sent you here?
If I pay a higher reward than the person who sent you, will you let us live? "The woman with her hair coiled up in a bun asked in a deep voice.
The man wearing the ghost mask chuckled, and his unpleasant crow-like voice rang out, "My Ten Ultimates Palace has never betrayed our employer. Even if you pay a higher price than our employer, it's useless. Because as long as I kill you, everything on you will be mine."
"Moreover, I also heard that the two of you have a treasure map. With such a thing, do you still want to live?"
The man in the ghost mask laughed and waved the large blade in his right hand. A tyrannical blade aura swept out. Then, the woman with her hair coiled up in a bun let out a muffled groan and retreated. Cherry red blood flowed out from the corner of her mouth.
As she stumbled, the woman managed to stabilize her body with great difficulty. Just as she was about to rejoin the battle, she coincidentally saw Zhuowen sitting on the third deck. It was as if he was watching a show. He did not have any intention to help at all.
After seeing Zhuo Wen on the third deck, the woman couldn't help but be stunned. Zhuo Wen's face was very unfamiliar to her. She didn't seem to have such a person on this ship. She had no impression of him at all.
Moreover, on the ship, her trusted subordinates had all been killed by the Tenth Ultimate. How did this person appear here?
"Who are you?" The woman subconsciously shouted.
This voice immediately attracted the attention of the man wearing the ghost head mask. He swept his gaze around and also noticed Zhuo Wen, who was seated on the deck as though he was watching a good show. An extremely cold glint was emitted from his eyes.
Bang!
After forcing the couple back with a slash of his blade, the man in the ghost mask took a step forward and rushed towards Zhuowen. Under his attacks, the couple was already at the end of their rope. They could not escape even if they wanted to.
The black-robed young man who had suddenly appeared on the third deck gave him a sense of threat. He had to finish him off and not let him reap the benefits.
Seeing the decisive action of the man in the ghost mask, Zhuowen's eyes narrowed dangerously. The cultivation of the man in the ghost mask was only at the advanced Heavenly Venerate level. Yet, he dared to provoke him. He was simply courting death.
"This young man is finished."
Seeing the actions of the man in the ghost mask, the couple on the deck sighed softly. Zhuowen was too young. They naturally did not think that Zhuowen was stronger than the man in the ghost mask.
