Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao-Chapter 4752: Tournament of the Nine Cities
Chapter 4752: Tournament of the Nine Cities
Editor: Henyee Translations
Ahead of them, there was a city that was like a divine bird that was spreading its wings and soaring high, wanting to charge into the Nine Heavens.
"Are we... going there?" a Saint asked softly.
They couldn’t help but feel apprehensive. This was because they had seen a divine bird that they suspected was the Azure Phoenix streak across the sky just then. It was extremely likely that the Azure Phoenix Great Emperor was in the city ahead of them.
Who wouldn’t be terrified to barge into the territory of a Great Emperor?
"There’s no need for so many people to go. Just a few people would do. We will go and investigate the situation first," Ling Han said with a smile.
This caused the Saints to sigh in relief. Otherwise, their hearts might not have been able to withstand it.
After some discussion, Ling Han, Buddha Doga, and the other Pseudo-Emperors set off as a group, entering into the Azure Phoenix City to see how things were going.
In any case, Ling Han had already absorbed most of them into his body. At that time, he had already endured for more than 200 years. As for now? It was no big deal.
Very soon, the four of them arrived at the city gates.
There were still guards here, but when they saw that one of Ling Han’s group was wearing a Silver Battle Armor, they immediately chuckled, "Which Great Emperor are you under, Milord?"
By the looks of it, the Silver Battle Armor was the standard for disciples of the Great Emperors.
Ling Han smiled and said, "I’m the disciple of the True Dragon Emperor, the Ninth King!"
In any case, this guy had long since died. However, only Ling Han and the others had seen him die. To outsiders, since he had died without a corpse, it could only be said that he had disappeared.
"So it’s the Ninth King. Please come in!" The guard hurriedly stepped aside, and said very considerately, "Lord Ninth King, you really targeted the timing and came just in time. The Nine Cities Tournament will be held tomorrow."
Yi, what Nine Cities Tournament?
Ling Han naturally didn’t ask. This question would definitely give him away.
They thought that he had come to participate in the competition of the Nine Cities, but what the heck was this?
Ling Han first pushed his doubts back into his mind. Then, with a wave of his hand, he brought Buddha Doga and the others into the city.
"What extravagance!" That guard hissed. He had come out to participate in a tournament, and actually brought three Saints with him as guards. Wasn’t this extravagant enough?
What he didn’t know was that Buddha Doga and the others were actually Pseudo-Emperors. Otherwise, his tongue would probably be sticking out of his mouth as he gaped.
After Ling Han entered the city, he randomly grabbed a person and ducked into a hidden spot, and then asked around.
In truth, when others saw him wearing a Silver Battle Armor, they would have long since developed reverence, and would definitely tell him everything they knew.
After a round of queries, Ling Han finally understood. As it turned out, a battle for supremacy among the disciples of the Great Emperors would be held in the Azure Phoenix City tomorrow, and the range of participation would be the nine great cities of the first line of defense, which included the True Dragon, Azure Phoenix, the Crimson Ape and the other Divine Beasts.
At first, Ling Han had not been interested in this. However, when he found out that the prize for the first place was a Genesis Substance-level Celestial medicine, he could not hold himself back any longer.
What he needed the most now was the Genesis Substance, which could allow him to accommodate more Regulations while his body would not experience Silent Destruction.
Of course, Genesis Substance was not all that multi-purpose. It only allowed the user to possess the ability to accommodate more Regulations without going through Silent Destruction. It did not mean that one would definitely be able to accommodate Regulations. The key was still the individual’s own ability.
Only if prodigies obtained it, would it be like adding wings to a tiger, and strengthen them further..
This was icing on the cake, and definitely not timely help.
"You want to participate?" When Buddha Doga saw Ling Han’s excited expression, he knew that Ling Han couldn’t hold himself back any longer.
Ling Han nodded earnestly, "M-hm."
Buddha Doga and the others exchanged hesitant glances.
If Ling Han wanted to participate in the competition, he could only pretend to be the disciple of the True Dragon Emperor. It would either be the Ninth King, or the Fifth King. However, there was still a Great Emperor in charge here, so how could it be easy to put on a disguise in front of such a being? freewebnøvel.com
If he was discovered, would he be directly blasted into smithereens?
"Ling Han, you have to consider carefully," Xia Houping said solemnly.
"You may be the only hope for the future," Qian Yanghao said.
Ling Han nodded earnestly, "Precisely because of this, I need to mature as soon as possible."
"All right!" Buddha Doga nodded. Being able to become Emperor, his temperament was naturally outstanding. Once he had made a decision, he would definitely not waver.
Ling Han stretched out a hand, and erased the memories of that person who had been questioned during this period of time.
Then, he boldly walked out, heading directly to a place in the city. At present, the disciples of the Great Emperors of the Nine Cities were all gathered here.
This kind of tournament wasn’t held often. On the other hand, there were pitifully few such tournaments. After all, the Genesis Substance was used as a reward, so how could it be held often?
Otherwise, no matter which Great Emperor, they would definitely go bankrupt.
When he arrived, this was actually a very simple and crude courtyard. After all, it was the Primitive Abyss. Being able to build a city was already an inconceivable feat, so how could he expect it to be resplendent and dazzling?
This was the temporary residence of the disciples of the Great Emperors. There were two guards at the entrance, and when they saw Ling Han, they immediately felt deep veneration.
"Lord!" They paid their respects. Wearing a Silver Battle Armor, that was the standard setup for disciples of a Great Emperor.
Ling Han couldn’t help but smile. This was really simple, saving him a lot of trouble.
"I am the Ninth King under the True Dragon Emperor," he declared proudly.
"Lord Ninth King!" The two guards bowed again.
"I’ve just arrived. Please bring me in," Ling Han said calmly. He didn’t want to give himself away.
"Understood!" A guard hurriedly brought Ling Han in.
Even though this courtyard was simple and crude, it still occupied a considerably large area, with multiple buildings lined up one after another.
Ling Han didn’t see anyone else, but he could sense that many rooms were exuding powerful fluctuations of aura.
Saint Tier!
Disciples of Great Emperors would definitely be Saint-level. Otherwise, they would not have been qualified to come here to participate in the so-called Nine Cities Tournament.
"Lord Ninth King, this is your residence." The guard led Ling Han to a more remote location. He seemed to be afraid that Ling Han would be unhappy, so he continued to explain, "You came later, so the good places have all been chosen by other Lords."
"It’s fine." Ling Han waved his hand, and strode into the house.
"Lord Ninth King, please have a good rest." The guard bowed again, then turned and left.
Ling Han entered the room, and his eyes swept over the surroundings. This place was even simpler. There wasn’t even a bed. There was only a bamboo mat, and it wasn’t very big either. This should be used for meditation.
However, Ling Han’s eyes lit up.
This bamboo mat was really something good!
He stretched out a hand to sense. There was a sliver of Genesis Qi within. Though he could not extract Genesis Substance, if he sat cross-legged on it and cultivated, the benefits would be much greater.
Hehe, though the conditions here were harsh, there was a considerable amount of good stuff.
Ling Han nodded. No matter what, this bamboo mat belonged to him now, and there was definitely no way he could return it.
"I have to think of a way to steal the bamboo mats in the other rooms as well," he muttered.
A night passed, and a new day arrived.
There was a man-made sun here. It was too simple. There was no need for a Great Emperor to move, and the Saint would be able to create a beautiful one.
Ling Han followed the others out of the Azure Phoenix City and into a large mountain.
There... was a mine here.
