Chapter 1452: Chapter 1452: Another One Courting Death!

Nangong Ao is so frustrated!

He was almost about to suffer internal injuries from anger. He deeply regretted choosing to hide underground. Now it was so bad, difficult to counterattack, and he had to flee constantly, unable to even show his face.

Meteors fell from the sky as if they were free, wherever Nangong Ao hid, they would rain down intensely.

Even with Nangong Ao’s high realm, over time, he was feeling a bit confused by the bombardment.

“I just don’t believe this kid can hold out much longer!” Nangong Ao’s eyes were cold, wishing he could slap Ye Qiu to death.

Performing the Twelve Heavenly Tribulations technique continuously consumed Ye Qiu significantly. During the bombing, Ye Qiu grabbed a handful of pills from his Sumeru bag and stuffed them into his mouth.

What he swallowed was not refined pills, but beast pills. In that prehistoric world during the treasure contention, rankings were based on the number of beast pills, and Ye Qiu’s beast pills ranked just below the Saint Heir of Taiyi.

Later, they were led by the Artifact Spirit to climb the mountain top. The Demon Lord Holy Son, Luo Fu, Beast God, and even the Saint Heir of Taiyi, consumed all their beast pills during the climb, except for Ye Qiu, who reached the top purely by comprehending the Rule Power of lightning, leaving all the beast pills he obtained before unused.

Ye Qiu didn’t have many pills left. At his level, ordinary pills couldn’t immediately restore his strength. Only top-tier pills could, due to a lack of top-class herbs, and Ye Qiu didn’t have such pills. He had collected a lot of high-quality Crystal Stones from an ancient site, where he found a crystal stone vein. However, a few low-quality Crystal Stones were useless to him, only the supreme quality Crystal Stones could help a bit. But this stuff was limited; Ye Qiu didn’t want to use it rashly.

Previously, he discovered that the beast pills also had significant effects. Although not as pure in energy as Crystal Stones, they could restore about half of his strength.

After refining a handful of beast pills, Ye Qiu’s power was supplied, and the meteors in his hand continued to descend.

Nangong Ao waited a long time, and Ye Qiu’s attacks were unending, making Nangong Ao repeatedly surprised. How was this kid never stopping? Didn’t attacks require strength?

In the distance, the Turquoise Pool Saintess watched the battlefield. The other descendents were certain that although Ye Qiu’s attacks were strong, he couldn’t last long. But as the meteors fell with increasing intensity, the descendents became puzzled. As someone mentioned a small movement earlier, it seemed like something was swallowed, and they realized Ye Qiu’s strength might have been replenished in time. Otherwise, this level of attack couldn’t possibly continue for such a long time.

“Is it beast pills?” The Turquoise Pool Saintess was slightly taken aback. Although Ye Qiu was fast, she still sensed a trace of the beast pill’s aura.

“What beast pills?” asked Granny Bai, slightly startled, not knowing what the Saintess meant by beast pills.

The Turquoise Pool didn’t explain, just said lightly, “In this battle, he will still win.”

“Why does the Saintess say so?” Granny Bai was puzzled. Why was the Turquoise Pool so certain to believe that this native could defeat Nangong Ao?

The Turquoise Pool remained silent, but in her heart, she thought, “Not for anything else, but because of his sheer number of beast pills, over a thousand, he is unbeatable.”

“Oh no!”

One of the descendents frowned, speaking in regard to the current battle situation. Nangong Ao was no different from the strongman of the previous Mother Mountain Sect. One becomes a target, and Nangong Ao was similar, hiding underground yet still attacked, unable to retaliate, continuing like this, the defeat might very well be… Nangong Ao!

In truth, Nangong Ao was in a difficult situation he couldn’t talk about, trapped beneath the ground. For a short while it was manageable, but as time passed he felt utterly wretched. After all, he was a renowned figure on the ancestral land, yet he was oppressed by an emperor-level native.

More infuriating was that even though he could indeed rush out, if he simply lifted the realm-suppressing restrictions, and restored his power beyond the emperor realm, he wouldn’t fear mere meteor bombardment.

But despite that, Nangong Ao couldn’t use the power beyond the emperor realm. Once he did, he would break the rules and violate his oath.

It was exasperating, there had never been a time so frustrating. Clearly facing a low-level native, yet he had no solution at all.

Endless meteor bombardments, from start till now, not even a sign of weakening.

Nangong Ao’s notion of waiting for Ye Qiu to exhaust his power was shattered.

“No, I have to get out. I can’t lose to a native. I, Nangong Ao, can lose to anyone, but never to a native.”

Nangong Ao made up his mind, ignoring any oaths. With a fierce look, the aura of his emperor realm could no longer be contained, with a crash, Nangong Ao finally emerged from the ground.

Ha.

Nangong Ao felt as if he was seeing daylight again, an unparalleled comfort. The earlier underground hiding was excruciating, now he truly appreciated the comfort of being above ground.

Zizz…

The aura of his power beyond the emperor realm surged continuously, showcasing Nangong Ao’s might.

Feeling the aura from this moment on Nangong Ao, all the descendents were stunned.

“How did he restore his original power?”

“Did he forget the oath he just took?”

Regarding Nangong Ao’s blatant disregard for the oath, the other descendents found it inconceivable.

But Nangong Ao no longer cared, upholding some oath couldn’t be compared to avoiding defeat by a native.

“What’s going on? His aura?” In the distance, Jin Shanshun, Beast God, Qin Feng, and others all sensed Nangong Ao’s aura returning to his power beyond the emperor realm.

After a long pause, they realized Nangong Ao ignored the previous rules, violated the oath, and used power beyond the emperor realm.

“So shameless, wasn’t it agreed to fight at emperor realm strength? Now using power beyond emperor realm, truly…”

“His face is thicker than bark, I bet a hundred-meter needle couldn’t pierce it!”

“Shameless, utterly shameless, never seen such a brazen person!”

Ye Qiu’s side was all infuriated, unable to hold back from cursing loudly. Previously it was this guy who insisted on another battle, so battle it was, now he doesn’t follow the rules, using strength beyond the emperor realm, disregarding the oath, can he get any more shameless?

“Damn it, he’s really getting on my nerves.”

“Can such a guy even call himself strong? Just pure garbage!”

Even the usually silent and introverted Cain couldn’t resist swearing: “Even if his blood was given freely, I’d be reluctant to drink it, it’s disgusting.”

Everyone was furious, hearing the coarse insults from Ye Qiu’s side, the descendents, though displeased, held back, not striking back.

Because even they felt it was truly excessive to break the oath.

In the sky, Nangong Ao and Ye Qiu stared each other down.

“You used power beyond the emperor realm, violating your oath,” Ye Qiu said calmly.

Nangong Ao was indifferent, snorting, “So what, battling a weak native at a lowered realm is just a game, did you think we would take it seriously?”

“But you swore,” Ye Qiu’s gaze was calm, neither agitated nor angry, surprisingly serene.

“Oaths are meant to be broken, why should I, a strong man, keep a promise to a weakling like you,” Nangong Ao sneered.

“You’ll pay the price for your actions.”

“Price?” Nangong Ao scoffed, “What price? Heaven will punish me? This downfall planet’s heaven? Even if it wants to kill me, I’ll kill you first and take everything from you.”

Nangong Ao didn’t want to keep playing. He wanted to kill Ye Qiu, seize the Bahuang Sword, and take the Sumeru bag.

Ye Qiu squinted, smiling lightly, “Oh really? You want to take my things, but I’m afraid you won’t get the chance because, no need for me to deal with you, Heaven itself will punish you, wait for judgment!”

Finished speaking, Ye Qiu quickly retreated.

Nangong Ao saw Ye Qiu retreating and thought he was trying to run, shouting, “Where are you escaping to?”

Ye Qiu looked at Nangong Ao as if he were an idiot, reminding him, “Still thinking of killing me? Better protect yourself first.”

What?

Nangong Ao felt a peculiar aura locking onto him. He suddenly looked up, discovering a divine dragon gazing down at him, its enormous dragon eyes emitting a cold light.

At this sight, all the descendents were stunned. Wasn’t this the divine dragon Ye Qiu conjured earlier?

“No, this isn’t something he conjured, this dragon is more terrifying than all of us combined. It might be Earth’s will manifesting as a dragon, this is Divine Punishment!”

A descendent’s eyes flickered with fear, while the others stood stunned, their minds in turmoil.
