Chapter 1117: Chapter 1117: The Opponent Turns Out to Be Myself!

Carson Flores stepped forward, his figure moving through time and space like a shuttle, instantly arriving at the side and slightly behind the man.

The man reacted quickly, stabbing backwards with his sword in an attempt to force Carson back.

But Carson didn’t retreat. Instead, he reached out with his left hand, grabbed the short sword, then threw a punch with his right hand, landing a direct hit on the man’s head.

"Bang!"

The man’s head burst apart, turning into points of light, followed quickly by his body and even the short sword in Carson’s grip, all disintegrating and vanishing into the air.

Carson shook off his hand, a smile appearing on his face.

Another challenge overcome!

In the hall, a look of surprise appeared on the woman’s face.

She knew full well the power of that sword strike, yet Carson had grabbed the short sword with his bare hand, and was unscathed?

The woman’s gaze settled on Carson, and a few seconds later, her eyes widened in realization.

The young man had refined his entire skeletal structure into Magic Artifacts, and within his bones lingered the scent of Metal Essence and Earth Essence. Additionally, his entire body was suffused with the aura of a True Dragon, presumably having been tempered with True Dragon’s Blood.

This fellow’s encounters were quite something!

That pendant hanging on his chest was evidently the shadow of a Xuanwu, which was clearly the embodiment of a Xuanwu beast. No wonder even such a formidable assassin couldn’t breach his defense but instead got counter-killed by his baffling speed.

It seems to be the Murphy Family’s Ground Shrinking Technique.

This kid is covered head to toe in secrets!

The woman pondered for a moment, then pointed at the barrier, and the Light Gate of the sixth trial appeared before Carson.

Since you possess so many treasures, let’s arrange a formidable one for you!

A foe from the Later Stages of Hollow Void should be able to break through your Xuanwu Barrier, shouldn’t it?

The woman swept a glance at the light disc to the right. Bryant James had also reached the sixth trial, his method of attack unchanged.

Magical treasure attacks, abnormal phenomena shattering heaven and earth—simple, brutal, and efficient, although watching it felt somewhat uninteresting. While the first time might be novel, the second and third times appeared lackluster.

The woman returned her focus to Carson.

This guy is quite interesting!

Let’s see how he solves the trial this time.

Carson stepped into the sixth trial and saw a towering figure standing opposite.

As soon as he entered, the towering man didn’t speak; he summoned a large cauldron and hurled it toward Carson, shaking heaven and earth with its majestic force.

Carson’s pupils contracted—this person was very strong!

Much stronger than the previous challenger, at least a whole stage ahead. Was this the Later Stages of Hollow Void, or the Great Perfection of Hollow Void?

The Artifact Spirit of Ghost Tower was being too excessive.

He hadn’t even reached the Mid-Stage of God Transformation yet, and sending Hollow Void Stage Mountain-Lifting Apes and Mysterious Assassins after him was already outrageous. And now, to send such a powerful opponent?

This was a rhythm that wouldn’t be satisfied until he was eliminated!

This time, without hesitation, Carson activated his Xuanwu Barrier, and the Emperor Seal flew out, instantly growing massively in size and clashing against the cauldron.

"Boom!"

The cauldron trembled, the Emperor Seal striking awe, the ground fractured, valleys shattered, and debris cascaded downwards.

In the hall, the woman’s eyes widened as she exclaimed in a low voice, "Emperor Seal! He is the Human Emperor of this generation!"

In the barrier screen, Carson manipulated the Emperor Seal, relentlessly smashing it against his opponent without any fancy techniques—just pure, raw power.

The entire valley collapsed instantly due to their struggle.

After seven or eight consecutive impacts, the cauldron shattered with a thunderous noise, and the relentless power of the Emperor Seal crashed towards the towering man.

The towering man turned to retreat, but the Emperor Seal released an overbearing killing intent, like an invisible blade, striking the man instantly.

The man’s body halted, and in that brief delay, the Emperor Seal smashed down.

The man’s body broke apart inch by inch, then transformed into a myriad of light points.

Carson retracted the Emperor Seal, wiping a smear of blood from the corner of his mouth.

Bashing you to death!

The sixth trial was overcome, and next was the seventh. Kash Lam had been defeated in this trial.

Carson popped an elixir into his mouth, sat down cross-legged, and began his Cultivation Practice to heal.

The next combatant would undoubtedly be even stronger; he needed to be in the fullest state to meet the enemy.

Two hours later, Carson stood up, his expression calm as he stepped through the long-awaited Light Gate, entering the seventh trial.

There was something different about this Light Gate, but Carson didn’t notice it.

At the fog-shrouded summit stood a man with a hazy figure. Carson took a glance—why did that figure look familiar?

Suddenly, the person took a step forward. With runes flashing underfoot, he instantly appeared beside Carson, holding a longsword that radiated Sword Qi, directly slashing at Carson.

Ground Shrinking Technique!

Carson was shocked, instinctively activating the Xuanwu Barrier.

The sword chopped down on the Xuanwu Barrier, which immediately trembled a few times, and the color of the Barrier Light Screen faded slightly.

How could this opponent perform the Ground Shrinking Technique, and why did the sword in his hand resemble the Three Provinces Sword?

While Carson was still in shock, the man suddenly summoned a magical treasure, transforming it into a mountainous size and smashing it towards Carson.

Upon seeing it, Carson’s pupils sharply constricted.

Emperor Seal!

That magical treasure was actually the Emperor Seal!

A shock ran through Carson’s heart, and he finally realized why that man’s silhouette was so familiar.

That was none other than himself!

The opponent in the seventh trial turned out to be himself!
