Chapter 56: Dilemma

In the dark Void Realm, Ancient Emperor flew forward at extreme speed with a gloomy face, disheveled hair, and a rather battered figure.

The numerous Yao Beasts in this Void Realm did not know what madness had struck them at this moment.

Every single one of them had completely rioted.

On his way to the first pass of the Ancient God Ruins, he had already eliminated more than one wave of Yao Beasts that attacked him without reason.

Among them, there was even a Yao Beast whose cultivation had reached the same Middle Stage of Soul Transformation as his.

However, Ancient Emperor's strength was extraordinary, and an ordinary Middle Stage Soul Transformation was truly no match for him.

Even against a normal Late Stage Soul Transformation, Ancient Emperor could rely on his numerous means to fight a battle with it.

Therefore, that Middle Stage Soul Transformation Yao Beast was unsurprisingly slain by Ancient Emperor.

Then its skin was stripped and its bones were dismantled, turning into Materials in Ancient Emperor's hands used for refining treasures and Alchemy.

However, to slay that Middle Stage Soul Transformation Yao Beast, Ancient Emperor also paid a considerable price.

The whisk in his hand was forcefully broken by that Middle Stage Soul Transformation Yao Beast, and he himself suffered not-so-light injuries.

Under this situation, Ancient Emperor's mood was very bad.

His main purpose for coming into this Ancient God Ruins was still for the nascent transformation pill.

Now he hadn't even seen the thing yet, and he actually suffered treasure damage and injuries.

This would place him in an extremely disadvantageous position in the subsequent competition for the nascent transformation pill.

Ancient Emperor was seen fleeing forward with a gloomy face.

Suddenly, Ancient Emperor felt a very strange feeling deep within his heart.

It was as if he had been targeted by something.

Moreover, the chaotic Void Realm along the way suddenly became quiet at this moment.

Within this silent void, Ancient Emperor felt a sense of oppression and discomfort.

Years of life-and-death experience made Ancient Emperor's heart suddenly startle, and his flying figure immediately stopped.

The moment Ancient Emperor's figure stopped, the scene before him could not help but make his heart somewhat terrified.

"What is this thing!"

Ancient Emperor looked forward, a flash of horror crossing his eyes.

Within the originally empty Void Realm in front of Ancient Emperor, a dazzling light suddenly lit up.

Then, a towering ancient tree suddenly appeared before Ancient Emperor's eyes.

The roots of this ancient tree actually plunged directly into the Void Realm.

Streaks of spatial rifts constantly flickered and flashed within the void pierced by the ancient tree.

Above the crown of the ancient tree, clusters of starry sky flame-like bright lights connected into a single piece.

Illuminating this place of the Void Realm with a magnificent color.

Ancient Emperor fixed his eyes and looked toward those clusters of firelight.

He discovered that those were not flames at all, but rather raven-like strange birds whose feathers flickered with a gold-black luster.

Ancient Emperor was somewhat uncomprehending as to why in this originally empty Void Realm

such a huge ancient tree would suddenly appear.

Could this tree even shuttle through space on its own?

Just when Ancient Emperor was attracted by this ancient tree and the countless gold-black strange birds on it,

a group of mountain-sized spiders were silently approaching Ancient Emperor's direction from all directions.

A faint flash of light occasionally swept across the bodies of these giant spiders.

Ancient Emperor's Soul Transformation Stage Divine Sense actually failed to discover them completely.

"Hisss!"

At this moment, a subtle, barely audible hiss was suddenly captured by the shocked Ancient Emperor.

Ancient Emperor's heart startled, and his figure immediately dodged slightly to one side.

Then a spider thread emitting a dim green light fiercely pierced through the spot where Ancient Emperor had just stood.

The reacting Ancient Emperor turned his head to look around.

Only to discover that he had been surrounded by a group of mountain-sized spiders.

"Hisss hisss hisss!"

Seeing that they were discovered by Ancient Emperor, the group of spiders that had sneaked over

no longer hid their figures, their mouths constantly wriggling.

Then they continuously sprayed huge, dim green spider webs formed by clumps of spider thread toward Ancient Emperor's body.

And those gold-black strange birds perched on the ancient tree also emitted bursts of harsh "croak" sounds at this moment.

Then they swarmed in flocks toward Ancient Emperor's direction.

Seeing this, Ancient Emperor's expression suddenly changed drastically.

At this moment, a location on the trunk of the towering ancient tree suddenly vibrated slightly.

Then the space at that trunk location suddenly shattered apart.

A purple-gold giant dragon with wings on its back and covered in scales dashed out from the space.

Immediately afterwards, the purple light on this purple-gold giant dragon's body converged.

Its figure rapidly changed and shrank, and finally a Daoist with a pale face revealed his figure from within.

Sun Xuan consumed a massive amount of magic power and finally escaped from the pursuit of that Three-Headed Turtle.

Under Sun Xuan's use, this Yinglong Transformation also became more and more proficient.

The Heaven-Patrolling Yinglong transformed by the Yinglong Transformation had as its strongest ability the opening of spatial channels to perform spatial shuttling.

However, Sun Xuan's cultivation magic power was insufficient at this moment, unable to bring out the maximum power of this Heaven-Patrolling Yinglong's innate ability.

It is rumored that adult forms of deities and demons like the Heaven-Patrolling Yinglong could even forcibly open cross-realm channels and shuttle through various plane worlds.

While escaping within the spatial channel, Sun Xuan suddenly felt that the void ahead was sealed by a huge energy.

If it were a true Heaven-Patrolling Yinglong, such a seal could be broken with a wave of the hand.

But Sun Xuan's magic power cultivation was too low, and the spatial channel opened by the Yinglong Transformation was directly severed by this giant force.

Then his figure involuntarily fell out of the spatial channel.

The instant he came out of the spatial channel, Sun Xuan dispersed this Divine Ability of the Yinglong Transformation that consumed massive magic power.

Then the scene before him completely dumbfounded Sun Xuan.

Before Sun Xuan could react, Ancient Emperor, who was besieged in the distance by flocks of gold-black strange birds and mountain-sized giant spiders,

directly shouted toward Sun Xuan's direction:

"Fellow Daoist Tongxuan, save me!"

He saw him shouting while resisting the attacks of numerous Yao Beasts.

Then he was actually able to free up his hands to swiftly set up obstruction Restrictions in the void around Sun Xuan with a few swooshes.

Used to prevent Sun Xuan from leaving.

This old bastard clearly wanted to drag Sun Xuan down with him.

The moment Ancient Emperor was surrounded by this group of demons and monsters earlier, half his heart had turned cold.

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better at this moment.

An unlucky fellow actually fell from the sky, dropping directly into this Yao Beast nest.

Seeing this scene, Ancient Emperor's heart rejoiced greatly.

Without saying another word, he set up interception Restrictions around this unlucky fellow.

"Better a Fellow Daoist die than this poor Daoist, Fellow Daoist Tongxuan, you mustn't blame this old man for being ruthless!"

After setting up the Restrictions, Ancient Emperor could not help thinking somewhat proudly within his heart.

Regarding his own Restriction cultivation, Ancient Emperor was still very confident.

In his view, among the group of people within this Ancient God Ruins, besides the Six Desires Demon Lord, there was no one else qualified to match him shoulder to shoulder.

Ancient Emperor's confidence was not without grounds.

At least for Sun Xuan at this moment, wanting to break the obstruction Restrictions set up by Ancient Emperor, besides violent dismantling, there was simply no second method.

But once violent dismantling was used to break the Restrictions, it would inevitably waste time.

Yet at this time, that group of gold-black strange birds and giant spiders had already separated a flock, rapidly surrounding him.

And the surrounding space had all been completely sealed off by this towering ancient tree.

Even if Sun Xuan wanted to use the Yinglong Transformation to open a spatial channel and escape, he couldn't do it.

For a moment, Sun Xuan could not help feeling a bit cornered.

"Gu Lan, you fucking seek death!"
