Chapter 406: Chapter 407 - 413: The Fight Begins! (Fifth update)

Upon seeing this scene, everyone’s heart clenched with tension, their gaze fixed intently on Sky Crying Great Saint and Yang Zhen, searching for even the tiniest opportunity!

After Sky Crying Great Saint snorted coldly, his murky eyes suddenly erupted with a brilliant light, and he stared at Yang Zhen as he slowly rose to his feet.

Yang Zhen retained his arrogant pose with hand on hip, continuing to play the part of a statue.

The situation was dire, and inwardly Yang Zhen was cursing his luck.

When Sky Crying Great Saint’s eyes blazed gold, Yang Zhen felt a tremble in his Spirit Soul. Although he was uncertain why, he knew all too well: this was the feeling of facing a natural enemy.

This feeling… it was unsettling!

However, Yang Zhen dared not move. It wasn’t that he feared Sky Crying Great Saint, worse case scenario he could fight him tooth and nail. But that would undoubtedly waste precious time. Should he be squabbling with Sky Crying Great Saint and let someone else seize the opportunity to enter the main hall?

As if Yang Zhen, of all people, could ever do such a thing! Why on earth should he?

So now he had turned the color of dirt, a swirl of earthy aura coiled around him, even his pupils ceased to move, muttering in his heart that he was a clump of dirt, a mere statue!

However, something felt off to Yang Zhen. Judging by Sky Crying Great Saint’s expression, he had clearly grown suspicious. If this guy had a volatile disposition, even a hint of suspicion would be enough to prompt him to destroy the ‘statue’ before him first.

Bracing himself, Yang Zhen remained vigilant and prepared for any imminent action. Everyone else at the entrance of the main hall was holding their breath, especially the people of the Sha Clan, watching intently as if they would rush to fight Sky Crying Great Saint to the death the moment he attacked Yang Zhen.

Just at this nail-biting moment, a groaning sound echoed out, making everyone’s hair stand on end.

Everyone was dumbfounded, their faces changing dramatically.

Damn it! Who would dare to groan in a situation like this?

Wasn’t that just asking for death?

Nearly everyone turned their eyes toward the source of the sound, their expressions turned extremely ugly.

At the entrance of the great hall, under everyone’s feet, the slightly plump Tribulation Crossing Period powerhouse who had passed out was slowly coming to as if he was just stretching his body. However, before he could make any further moves, he was struck by excruciating pain.

Old Ghost Hei and Sha Clan Elder’s faces drained of their color, as they both rushed to silence the groaning man.

“Aaaah!”

An ear-piercing scream echoed throughout the entire hall, plunging it into a deathly silence.

Two figures moved at the same time!

With a roar, Sky Crying Great Saint’s body burst forth in a wave of dark energy, like a searing flame, his entire form skyrocketing. Like a comet streaking across the sky, trailing a long, dark wave, he sped toward the slightly plump powerhouse.

Almost at the same moment Sky Crying Great Saint moved, Yang Zhen exploded forward at a furious speed but without a hint of aura fluctuation. He was like a leaf, still with the aura of a statue. A wave of earth surged through the main hall, surrounding Yang Zhen’s feet, carrying him toward the interior of the main hall.

“Not good!”

Old Ghost Hei and Sha Clan Elder both cried out, exchanging a glance and spoke in unison, “Fight Sky Crying Great Saint till death if you value your lives!”

Boom- !

A violent wave of energy erupted, and at this point, no one thought of escape. The slightest thought of fleeing, and Sky Crying Great Saint might chase them down individually, leaving no chance of survival!

Boom boom boom!

Surges of overwhelming energy waves erupted around, and in the face of the attacking Sky Crying Great Saint, nobody dared to hide their true power. Everyone showed their full strength.

Inside the great hall, everybody was once again engaged in combat, but Yang Zhen had already slipped in.

“Damn it, my heart is thumping so hard!”

After entering, Yang Zhen glanced back to see the Sky Crying Great Saint single-handedly fighting many Tribulation Crossing Period experts. Although he was continuously retreating, he was nevertheless making all his opponents tumble awkwardly, and Yang Zhen immediately felt that characters of Saint level were truly terrifying. Even a body without any intelligence was incredibly ferocious.

Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er, along with those two jerks, the cat and the chicken, had already gone inside. When Yang Zhen rushed inside, he almost bumped into Han Yan’er.

“Why are you all here?”

Yang Zhen looked at everyone with a puzzled face – Hua Youyue, Han Yan’er, and the cheeky cat and chicken were all there.

Hua Youyue was sizing Yang Zhen up and down, asking, “Are you alright?”

Yang Zhen gave a mischievous smile: “Rest assured, what could possibly happen to me, the great Sao Saint? If it weren’t for that Sky Crying Great Saint, I would have killed him already.”

Seeing that Yang Zhen had the mood to joke around lightened Hua Youyue’s mood and she smiled.

Han Yan’er rolled her eyes at Yang Zhen, looked outside, and asked, “What is happening out there?”

“A fight has started!” Yang Zhen surpassing them both, said, “Looking at the situation, it doesn’t seem like the Sky Crying Great Saint will be able to hold on for too long. Let’s hurry up and see if there’s anything valuable inside.”

Hearing that the Sky Crying Great Saint might not be able to hold on for much longer, both Hua Youyue’s and Han Yan’er’s faces showed an odd expression. As they exchanged glances, they quickly followed after Yang Zhen without saying a word.

The cheeky cat came over to Yang Zhen, looking excited, and said, “Kid, guess what’s inside? If it weren’t for you might have died from the slap of that Sky Crying Great Saint, I would already be eating up the abundance inside by now. You should feel grateful to me!”

Hearing the cheeky cat’s words, Yang Zhen was taken aback and looked at him with confusion.

There are good things to eat inside, and the cheeky cat somehow resisted and came out with Hua Youyue and others to save him?

“It must not be anything good, otherwise, why would you, the unreliable one, have come out?” Yang Zhen sneered, ignoring the cheeky cat.

The cheeky cat was stunned and looked at Yang Zhen in astonishment. “Oh boy! How did you figure that out?”

This time, it was Yang Zhen’s turn to be surprised, he asked with a confused expression, “So there really is nothing good?”

The cheeky cat gave a weird laugh, darted forward and said: “Yeah, there’s nothing good, I don’t even want to go inside.”

Hua Youyue approached Yang Zhen, smiled faintly and said gently, “There are actually quite a few good things inside, and you better hurry up. Otherwise, once the Sky Crying Great Saint or the members of the Sha clan come in, you might not have much time to process.”

Hearing Hua Youyue’s words, Yang Zhen’s face lit up with excitement. He looked at Hua Youyue and said, “What sort of thing is it, so valuable?”

That being said, Yang Zhen was somewhat puzzled. Without waiting for Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er to respond, he further inquired, “If it’s so precious, why didn’t you guys process it?”

Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er looked at each other, shook their heads and said,

“We can’t process it!”

You can’t process it?” Yang Zhen looked surprised. “How do you know that I’ll be able to process the thing you can’t process?”

Han Yan’er glanced at Yang Zhen, “You… Is there something that others can understand that you can’t?”

Yang Zhen seemed confused. He looked at Han Yan’er strangely until she was irritated, exuding a strong aura of intent to fight and kill. Only then did Yang Zhen burst into laughter and rushed forward, “I like what you said, and you’re absolutely right.. There is nothing in the world Sao Saint can’t understand!”
