Chapter 1282 – Two Ancient Gods
“Only the Spiritual Race’s Zhang Yutong has lost, and if we count True God Tian Qian of the Blazing Gold Race who issued a challenge just now but actually lost, the Blazing Gold Race has lost three matches now!”
“Now, if Ancient God Ice Origin gets out there and defeats someone, the Blazing Gold Race will have lost four matches!”
The spectating factions were all abuzz with chatter and surprise.
No one had expected this development, and the main source of their shock was none other than the legendary genius who had directly attained Rank Six.
“That scoundrel….” The wrinkled elder of the Life Sacred Land helplessly smiled.
Between these two races, one was bound to be the winner while the other was bound to be the loser, but he had hoped that the difference wouldn’t be too great so that the two races would maintain an equilibrium. However, Zhao Feng’s appearance greatly upset this balance.
“He has such a powerful Soul eye-bloodline!” The upper echelon members of the Blazing Gold Race were in a dour mood.
They originally planned for True God Tian Qian to defeat Zhao Feng straightaway and prevent him from showing any skills in this gambling match, but in the end, they only bolstered Zhao Feng’s reputation.
But even if Zhao Feng had defeated True God Tian Qian, the Blazing Gold Race would still be the final victor. This thought made the upper echelon of the Blazing Gold Race appear somewhat relieved.
“You idiots!” The youth with dark golden skin scolded the other Blazing Gold Race fighters.
The other fighters were all furious, but they didn’t dare to retort.
“Next time, I’ll go!” A cold and gloomy light flashed through the dark golden youth’s eyes.
“Mm, we’ll have Ancient God Gilded Gold go.” The voice of a Blazing Gold Race upper echelon member echoed in the fighters’ minds.
The Blazing Gold Race fighters were all startled by this order.
“This time, the Spiritual Race is going to lose for sure!” Ancient God Gold Fury couldn’t help but smile.
On the other side, Zhao Feng’s victory had won him the admiration of the other Spiritual Race fighters.
“Good! Zhao Feng, with you and Ancient God Ice Origin, my Spiritual Race is certain to win a major victory!” the Spiritual Race Fifth Elder said in an elated voice.
Ancient God Ice Origin’s brow slightly frowned in discomfort. This gambling match was clearly his stage, but Zhao Feng managed to grab the limelight ahead of him.
But the next round is my turn! Ancient God Ice Origin found it difficult to suppress his excitement.
This time, he would choose two weaker members of the Blazing Gold Race, defeating two in a row to completely outshine Zhao Feng!
But at this moment, the Spiritual Race Fourth Elder’s voice was like ice water drenching his body; “Ancient God Ice Origin, hold on for a moment. Let Bao Yuan go first.”
The Fourth Elder had a reserved expression, his profound eyes constantly sweeping over the Blazing Gold Race.
Logically speaking, the Blazing Gold Race should have been enraged and caught off guard by True God Tian Qian’s defeat, but its members had quickly calmed, and all of them appeared confident and assured. To be prudent, the Spiritual Race Fourth Elder decided to move Ancient God Ice Origin back in position.
“Then I’m going!” Bao Yuan jumped onto the stage with a smile.
Although he didn’t have the Spiritual Race bloodline, he was still extremely strong.
“You, come up and play with me!” Bao Yuan stared directly at that fiery woman of the Blazing Gold Race.
“I refuse.” The fiery woman’s reply was swift and certain.
She could clearly tell just how strong Bao Yuan was. In her condition, she was no match for him.
With his challenge refused, Bao Yuan could only pick someone else.
“Does the person next to you dare to step onto the fighting stage?” Bao Yuan’s eyes shifted to the dark golden man next to the fiery woman.
He sensed that this man with dark golden skin was very strong and could serve as a suitable opponent. This man had a rather gloomy expression and cold eyes, and he was also standing a bit in front of the others, making him a little more obvious.
“Ancient God Gilded Gold, you can go up now,” Ancient God Gold Fury whispered and softly chuckled.
“Okay!” Ancient God Gilded Gold’s eyes turned sharp and fierce as he flew onto the stage.
“Today, you can be the stepping stone for Bao Yuan!” Bao Yuan appeared to be aching to fight.
“Is that so?” Ancient God Gilded Gold sneered, as he unleashed the energy of his Divine Stages.
Boom!
This heaven-shaking and dominating energy was clearly that of an Ancient God!
“This is… Ancient God?” Bao Yuan’s face froze in shock, and his body trembled.
“What’s going on? Who is that youth?”
“The Blazing Gold Race actually had another Ancient God expert!”
The surrounding spectators exclaimed in shock.
A single Ancient God would have an enormous effect on the state of the match. Originally, the Spiritual Race had the absolute advantage, but now, the Spiritual Race seemed likely to lose.
“They had another Ancient God!”
Besides the Fourth Elder, the upper echelon of the Spiritual Race all stood up, the smiles on their faces replaced with dejection and concern.
“So that’s what was going on. The Blazing Gold Race was hiding another Ancient God expert!”
It was the Blazing Gold Race that proposed this gambling match. The Spiritual Race was suspicious about this, as the proposal was clearly to the Spiritual Race’s advantage, but if it didn’t agree, it would appear too timid. But they had never imagined that the Blazing Gold Race would be hiding another Ancient God.
“Elder, please be at ease. This Blazing Gold Race Ancient God should have just broken through very recently. I can deal with him!” Ancient God Ice Origin whispered.
As long as they sent out their fighters in the right order, Ancient God Ice Origin still had a chance of dealing with two Ancient Gods.
“That’s right. Have Zhao Feng exhaust this Ancient God and then have Ancient God Ice Origin force him into battle and finish him!”
Many of the Spiritual Race fighters instantly placed their hopes on Ancient God Ice Origin.
Zhao Feng was the strongest non-Ancient God on their team. He would be capable of wounding an Ancient God who had only recently broken through. Ancient God Ice Origin would then be sent to finish the job. In this way, the Spiritual Race would still hold the advantage.
At this moment, Ancient God Ice Origin became the Spiritual Race’s only hope.
Bzzzz!
Zhao Feng furtively activated his left eye and focused on Ancient God Gilded Gold.
There’s a secret seal on his Divine Stages! Zhao Feng immediately saw what was going on.
It appeared that an upper echelon Elder of the Blazing Gold Race had applied a secret technique to conceal Ancient God Gilded Gold’s true cultivation so that not even the Ancient Gods of the Spiritual Race could see the truth. But even now, there was still another seal on Ancient God Gilded Gold’s Divine Stages.
“Bao Yuan, do your best to injure him!” Ancient God Ice Origin messaged.
“Okay!” Bao Yuan’s eyes bulged in rage as he activated his bloodline in preparation to fight with all he had.
Boom!
Bao Yuan’s body grew nearly ten times larger into a massive black ape. Every hair on his body was like a black needle of steel, and his appearance was abnormally savage and fierce.
Swish!
A dark yellow hammer appeared in his hand, exuding an energy at the limits of an average-quality divine weapon.
“Wind Devil Hammer!” Bao Yuan immediately used one of his powerful combat skills.
His arms began to madly flail the hammer around like some mad devil. Dark whirlwinds began to sweep across the stage toward Ancient God Gilded Gold.
Bzzz! Hwoom!
A cold smile appeared on Ancient God Gilded Gold’s face. His body was instantly covered in a layer of dark golden metal while dark golden flames soared to the sky.
Ancient God Gilded Gold chose to directly confront Bao Yuan’s attack.
Boom! Bang!
Ancient God Gilded Gold punched, his dark golden fist of flame like a dragon as it pulverized everything in its path.
“Haha, this is all your strength amounts to!” Ancient God Gilded Gold punched here and there, annihilating Bao Yuan’s attacks.
Boom! Bang! Crash!
Bao Yuan roared, all the steely needles on his body standing up as he threw himself at Ancient God Gilded Gold.
Bao Yuan’s bloodline was one meant for close combat, but even with a divine weapon in hand, he was still no match for Ancient God Gilded Gold.
“This Ancient God has abnormal strength!” Many of the fighters of the Spiritual Race began to grow worried.
“I’ve defeated many Ancient Gods of his level. As long as I don’t have to fight Blazing Gold Race Ancient Gods in a row, I’m confident that I could defeat several hundred of them!” Ancient God Ice Origin sternly said.
He was now the only hope of the Spiritual Race. Only he could reverse the tides. If he was able to achieve the final victory, he might even be able to request more from the Spiritual Race.
“I didn’t think that the Blazing Gold Race would be so lowly as to intentionally hide the cultivation of this Ancient God. Moreover, this Ancient God doesn’t seem like someone who has just broken through….” The upper echelon members of the Spiritual Race had rather downcast looks.
They had been observing the battle between Bao Yuan and Ancient God Gilded Gold this entire time. With their insight and experience, they naturally noticed that Ancient God Gilded Gold had a very composed expression and didn’t appear to be using his full strength. Perhaps he was trying to avoid being wounded by slowly tiring Bao Yuan out.
It appeared that the Blazing Gold Race was not composed of fools. Even with two Ancient Gods, it chose to advance very cautiously.
“Damn!” Bao Yuan was absolutely furious. He was suppressed throughout this entire battle, unable to do anything to Ancient God Gilded Gold. He felt suffocated and oppressed.
“Black Demon Flurry!” Bao Yuan roared and used his ultimate move.
Boom!
His blood began to burn, creating black illusory flames that formed the image of a massive black ape in the air. Bao Yuan’s aura explosively swelled, and his body shot forward, his massive hammer covered in black energy as it smashed down at Ancient God Gilded Gold.
Boom! Boom! Boom…!
Explosions resounded over the stage.
Bao Yuan had apparently gone mad, flailing around the massive hammer and drowning Ancient God Gilded Gold in layers of black energy.
“Is this all you’ve got? The people of the Spiritual Race truly are weaklings!”
Ancient God Gilded Gold’s jeering laughter came out of the center of the black Divine Power. A moment later, a golden flame pierced through the darkness.
Thwish!
Ancient God Gilded Gold had transformed into a gold-plated mountain that directly collided with Bao Yuan’s head.
“Break!” Ancient God Gilded Gold had condensed a ball of dark golden light in his hand that exuded a dreadful searing energy, which he now released.
Boom! Bang!
Bao Yuan’s body rolled across the stage, eventually falling over the edge, drenched in blood.
“Bao Yuan lost!” Zhang Yutong whispered.
“This Ancient God Gilded Gold doesn’t appear to be very hurt.” Ancient God Ice Origin slightly frowned as he stared at Ancient God Gilded Gold.
Logically speaking, the frenzied attacks from a peak Rank Six True God like Bao Yuan should have at least wounded Ancient God Gilded Gold.
“Zhao Feng, when you go out there, put your all into wounding him. That’s the only way I can defeat him while preserving some of my strength,” Ancient God Ice Origin immediately said to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng would no longer have a chance to be in the limelight. He would have to offer himself up so that Ancient God Ice Origin could succeed.
But right at this moment, Ancient God Gilded Gold coldly barked from the stage, “Ancient God Ice Origin, come up here and fight me!”
After defeating Bao Yuan, Ancient God Gilded Gold had unexpectedly not chosen to rest, but instead issue a challenge. And the person he was challenging was none other than the strongest person on the Spiritual Race team, Ancient God Ice Origin.
