Chapter 2066 - 2066 2056 If I Want to Kill You

2066: Chapter 2056: If I Want to Kill You 2066: Chapter 2056: If I Want to Kill You After hearing the words of Zhuge Shenhou, the group stood frozen, initially thinking the Stone Soldier Eight Formations was the final barrier, only to discover there was more.

At that moment, Zhuge Shenhou still hovered in the air, such a Great Power wouldn’t simply dissipate into the universe.

However, his gaze was somber; the forthcoming crisis would be the greatest in human history, with most of humanity perishing in battle.

“Humans will surely lose.”

This was his deduction, but he knew in his heart that predictions like these were not accurate, and humanity still had a glimmer of hope in the darkness.

“It’s all on you now.”

Zhuge Shenhou cast an expectant gaze toward Long Yan below, who might be humanity’s only variable.

Yet, he would not interfere in Long Yan’s growth; the future would evolve based on the current events, and a slight alteration might change the future, which Zhuge Shenhou dared not risk.

Unaware of Zhuge Shenhou’s thoughts, Long Yan and the others saw The Prohibition in front of the Great Formation disappear along with the solving of the Stone Soldier Eight Formations, revealing a pitch-black cave.

As the group stepped in, gray flames appeared in the center of the road; though they were beneath the ground, the surroundings resembled a small universe, with the scenery beyond the staircase filled with stars.

The two women were mesmerized by the beautiful scene, but Long Yan urged them to move on.

The deeper they went, the more alarmed Long Yan became about the immense size of this final layer.

They had been walking for about an hour, but the staircase seemed endless.

Long Yan even wondered if Zhuge Shenhou’s words were just a joke to the group before he left.

After airing his grievances, they still had to continue their journey.

Finally, after four hours, the group reached the bottom level and found themselves before a grandiose castle.

Yes, a castle.

Though an underground castle was hard to believe, there it was.

Two White Tiger statues sat at the doorway, crafted from ordinary stone but looking so lifelike that it seemed they might pounce at any second.

“This castle does have an imposing air.”

Long Yan felt the ambiance around, everything was eerily quiet, but the castle itself emitted a familiar disturbance, not of True Qi, but something indescribable.

The group slowly pushed open the castle’s gate, and the gray flames flared up, instantly illuminating the formerly dark pathway.

“Why do we have to walk again?”

Lingxi rubbed her sore thighs, showing a bit of complaint in her voice, but the fleeting glimpse of her fair skin distracted Long Yan considerably.

Ignoring Lingxi’s complaints, Liu Qingyue just smiled tenderly, seeing the path to becoming the Ghostly Demon Princess as even more arduous.

Suddenly, the surrounding flames burst brilliantly, as if welcoming someone, and a vast shadow enveloped the three.

“Be careful.”

Instinctively pushing Liu Qingyue and Lingxi aside, Long Yan leaped high like a monkey, just as a Meteor Hammer smashed into the ground where they had just stood.

Looking at the towering figure before him, Long Yan was baffled; what was this thing?

The pristine fur, clad in ancient general’s armor, and the word “king” on its forehead, all conveyed the majesty of its master.

Standing in front of everyone was a white tiger that walked upright, and the meteor hammer that had just attacked the three people was indeed a masterpiece of the white tiger before them.

Without further explanation, the white tiger raised the meteor hammer high again.

Long Yan only had time to duck, and the whooshing sound of the wind grazed over his head, even lifting a strand of his hair.

With a “clang,” Dragon Tooth fiercely struck the battle armor on the chest of the white tiger, leaving only a shallow white mark on the armor despite the power of Dragon Tooth.

The immense force still made the white tiger take a few steps back, the meteor hammer in its hand tipping slightly, and its offensive momentum suddenly slowed.

Long Yan seized the opportunity, striking the chest armor of the white tiger with four or five consecutive slashes.

Under his power, the white tiger kept retreating without any chance to counterattack.

“Shatter.”

A layer of ghostly purple flames emerged on the blade of Dragon Tooth, and as the long knife slashed down, it was accompanied by a thunderous sound.

The white tiger’s chest armor completely disintegrated under this strike.

Long Yan’s hands did not slow; his long knife directly sliced through the form of the white tiger, but curiously, the body of the white tiger shattered in the air like a mirror.

“Be careful.”

Long Yan sheathed Dragon Tooth, noting the formidable ability of the white tiger, especially the strange battle armor which required five or six slashes with the sharp Dragon Tooth to shatter it.

And that single hammer blow from the white tiger had the strength of a God King Sixth level.

It seemed this final challenge was not so simple after all.

A fighting spirit ignited in Long Yan’s heart.

Just now, both Qin Tianlu and Peng Wang had not given Long Yan many opportunities to try out the legacy, making this a good chance to practice the Divine Marquis’s heritage.

As they continued on their way, more white tigers appeared like the earlier one, and Long Yan kept practicing the moves from the newly acquired Wuhou Inheritance.

Long Yan faintly felt that these moves could unleash even greater power, but his current strength was not yet sufficient to fully utilize them.

He made a quiet resolution to find a suitable opportunity to deeply comprehend their secrets once he got out.

The space gradually became narrower, and the roads had already narrowed into a tight path from earlier on, undoubtedly increasing the difficulty of Long Yan’s battles.

The white tiger before him now gripped a giant ax, which Dragon Tooth parried, the powerful force pushing Long Yan back a step.

The black and white light in his hand shone brilliantly, “Yin and Yang Infinity!”

A thick column of black and white light instantly engulfed the white tiger before him.

Lingxi tenderly wiped the sweat from Long Yan’s forehead, feeling a bit heartbroken that Long Yan had to face these monsters alone all the way.

At last, the winding path came to an end.

Long Yan looked at the gate before him, which, compared to the stone statues at the doorway, appeared crudely made and somewhat mismatched with the exquisite castle.

Accompanied by a creaking sound, the dusty gate was slowly pushed open by everyone; the space inside was not as large as imagined, just a rather cozy cabin.

Despite not being very spacious, it contained all essentials in a compact manner, the antique decor making Long Yan nostalgically recall his days in the Long Family.

An unfamiliar fragrance wafted through the air.

The incense burner was still emitting wisps of blue smoke, and four cups of hot tea were neatly arranged on the table.

Everything here seemed to bear traces of someone having lived here before.

Just as Long Yan was surveying his surroundings, a sudden cough sounded from behind the screen.

“Who?”

Long Yan reacted swiftly, positioning Dragon Tooth horizontally in front of his chest, his vigilance throughout the journey having kept everyone safe so far.

“There’s no need for that.

If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn’t be able to resist.”
