Chapter 3842: Tan Ge’s Plan
After the golden light projection finished speaking, it quickly dissipated, and everyone else’s gazes fell upon the Crown of the King.
Everyone was incredibly envious of being able to obtain something from the Emperor’s Legacy, and the sound of swallowing could even be heard.
“Senior Brother, could there be something strange about this thing?”
After a brief silence, Tan Ge said, “Xuanji Emperor was an ancient Great Master, incredibly powerful. Can his Legacy be obtained so easily?
I feel it’s somewhat illusory; could it be a trap?”
“I don’t think so.”
Before anyone else could speak, a little guy Disciple nearby quickly interjected, “Opportunity, Opportunity, this thing relies on fate.
If the fate arrives, perhaps it can be obtained easily; if not, even losing one’s life won’t yield any benefits.
In my opinion, having the chance to enter the Legacy Gate is a symbol of strength; the rest depends on Opportunity and luck.
I guess the other two doors definitely contain nothing, or perhaps endless dangers.
This is our authentic Legacy Gate, so it’s not strange to obtain Xuanji Emperor’s Crown of the King.”
After he finished speaking, the remaining few people nodded repeatedly. People are like this; when immense benefits are before them, there’s always a tendency to lean towards the positive, constantly finding various excuses for themselves.
A hint of greed flashed in Xifeng Lie’s eyes: “I think so too; this should be the true Xuanji Emperor’s Legacy.
It seems easy for us to come here, but that’s not the case. If it weren’t for my Immortal Venerable’s suppression, how could we have arrived here?
There’s been no movement behind us; I guess those people are probably fighting to the death, contending for the remaining few spots.”
“Senior Brother’s words make sense. It seems easy for us to come here, but it’s all thanks to Senior Brother’s protection…”
The people next to him nodded, constantly flattering him.
Tan Ge said, “Then what does Senior Brother mean?”
“What you said also makes a little sense. The path to any Legacy is rugged, and there might be unforeseen dangers.
Since that’s the case, I’ll try first. My strength is the strongest here, and I can handle any situation.”
Xifeng Lie adopted an ‘If I don’t go to Hell, who will?’ posture, then stepped towards the table.
A cold glint flashed in Tan Ge’s eyes. The reason he said so much earlier wasn’t because he truly saw something, but to scare his fellow Disciples and seize an Opportunity for himself.
Now it seemed everything was in vain. In the face of immense temptation, Xifeng Lie gave him no Opportunity to take advantage.
But there was no choice. He was an Early Stage Immortal Venerable, while Xifeng Lie was a Middle Stage Immortal Venerable. Compared to him, there was still a gap in strength, and a direct confrontation would definitely not work.
Xifeng Lie was filled with joy, stepping forward to the table. With an excited heart, he reached out to grab the Crown of the King.
But just then, a surprised cry suddenly came from behind him.
“Senior Brother, look, there’s someone over there.”
Xifeng Lie was startled and quickly looked up, but no matter how he looked, where was there any sign of a person?
Just then, a gentle breeze swept past him. Tan Ge quickly arrived at the table, snatched the Crown of the King, and placed it on his head.
“Hahaha, I succeeded! The Legacy of Xuanji Emperor belongs to me!”
Tan Ge burst into laughter, wild and triumphant. He didn’t want to lose this Opportunity, so he finally made a desperate move, using a feint to the east and strike to the west, ultimately seizing the Crown of the King.
In his opinion, he had become the ultimate winner. As long as he obtained the Legacy of Xuanji Emperor, why would he care about a Middle Stage Immortal Venerable?
Even returning to the Sect, no one would dare to provoke him, and he might even become the master of Guiyuan Sect in one fell swoop.
Xifeng Lie, on the other hand, was incredibly furious. No matter what, he was everyone’s Senior Brother and the strongest one, yet he had been outsmarted by someone else.
“You scoundrel, give it back to me!”
In his extreme anger, he was about to make a move to snatch the Crown of the King, but before he could act, he suddenly saw that the other party’s head was already enveloped by a mass of black Qi, constantly pouring into his mind.
“This…”
Seeing this scene, Xifeng Lie was startled and immediately stopped.
As a Genius of Guiyuan Sect, he was well-informed and quickly recognized this as Devilish Qi.
Xuanji Emperor was a renowned Immortal Emperor of the Righteous Path, rumored to have slain countless Demonic cultivators. How could such a person be from the Demonic Path, and how could his Legacy contain Devilish Qi?
Then there was only one conclusion: this Legacy was fake, and everything was a trap.
Understanding all of this, he broke out in a cold sweat.
He had originally been angry at Tan Ge’s shamelessness for snatching his Opportunity, but now it seemed the other party had saved him, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Similar to Dongfang Daoyuan earlier, Tan Ge at this moment was clutching the Crown of the King on his head with both hands, desperately trying to pull it off, but unfortunately, he couldn’t.
The infusion of black Qi was clearly extremely painful. His face was contorted, and he kept letting out beast-like howls.
Seeing all this, the three Disciples next to him were also greatly frightened. The little guy came closer and nervously said, “Senior Brother, what should we do now?”
“Kill him, eliminate the Devilish Qi and defend the Dao. We cannot let him completely turn into a Demonic cultivator.”
Xifeng Lie spoke with righteous indignation. He had already realized that the other party had fallen into a trap, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Moreover, as a Junior Brother, he had schemed against him. Although he didn’t gain any advantage, such betrayal was unforgivable, so the other party had to die.
Considering everything, he showed no mercy. The immortal sword in his hand burst forth with dazzling sword light, and he chopped down directly.
The sword light flickered. At this moment, Tan Ge was completely unprepared and was struck hard on the head by a sword.
However, the result was completely different from what was expected. The Crown of the King erupted with a black mist, directly devouring the sword light completely, and the sword, which was supposed to split mountains and rivers, exerted no power at all.
“This…”
Xifeng Lie’s expression changed; the power of the Devilish Qi was beyond his expectations.
“Again! I don’t believe I can’t kill you!”
This time, he was smarter and changed direction. The immortal sword in his hand no longer chopped down directly but stabbed towards the opponent’s heart.
This sword was both fast and ruthless. With a squelch, it completely pierced through Tan Ge’s left chest.
Having succeeded in one move, Xifeng Lie was overjoyed. He raised his hand and retrieved his immortal sword, but the subsequent scene once again shocked him immensely.
A hole was left in Tan Ge’s left chest, but no blood flowed out. Instead, black Qi surged, and it quickly healed itself.
“This… this is too powerful, isn’t it?”
The opponent’s power greatly astonished Xifeng Lie, and at the same time, a trace of fear arose in his heart.
It was clear that Tan Ge had not yet fully transformed into a Demonic cultivator, yet he was already so terrifying. Once he completed the transformation, the consequences would be unimaginable.
By then, let alone seeking Opportunity, none of the four of them would likely survive.
“What are you still looking at? Let’s all attack together!” Xifeng Lie roared, and the immortal sword in his hand stabbed out again. The three people next to him also awakened as if from a dream, waving their weapons and rushing forward.
