Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: Resurrection of the Corpses

"Good!"

Carson Flores promptly agreed, unlike Demetrius Hester and Selena Smith, who wielded their strength and made other competitors leave or just killed them.

Why not just grab the artifact with his strength?

"His Excellency the Human Emperor is truly generous and magnanimous, incomparable to those hypocrites of the Central Divine Continent Alliance. Regardless of the outcome, I thank you here!"

Carson Flores sized up the others, who were all wearing identical masks that seemed to have the ability to shield perceptions, making it impossible to discern their true faces under the masks.

They were all dressed in black robes, tightly covered from head to toe, with only their gender apparent and nothing else discernible.

"Who are you, and why wear masks and hide yourselves?"

The lead masked man clasped his hands and said, "We are people fallen on hard times, inconvenient to show our true faces; otherwise, it would bring endless trouble. Please forgive us, Your Excellency."

Since they’d said as much, Carson Flores naturally could not press further—he took out the Water-Fire Mirror and said solemnly, "Then... forgive my offense!"

The Water-Fire Mirror shimmered, and an expanse of fire engulfed the masked individuals.

At the same moment, he stepped forward and disappeared from his spot.

"Attack!"

The lead masked man uttered a low cry, and a wine-red Gourd flew out, unleashing countless Flying Swords that came out like a star river falling to the earth, enveloping hundreds of meters around them.

Carson Flores had just reappeared not far from the Spectral Elemental Fire, and before the Water-Fire Mirror could activate, countless Flying Swords fell like heavy rain. Each sword bore a fierce force as if it would pierce through everything in the world.

Carson was startled, this guy was quick to react!

Blocked by the flames, he dared not recklessly enter the fire and used this offensive to stall himself, not giving him time to use his moves to subdue the Spectral Elemental Fire.

A gleam appeared on his Xuanwu Amulet, and a Xuanwu Barrier instantly surrounded him; meanwhile, the Emperor Seal flew out, hovering over his head and expanding instantly.

Each Flying Sword struck the Emperor Seal, sparking countless sparks. Occasionally, a cleverly angled Flying Sword bypassed the Emperor Seal, striking Carson but was blocked by the Xuanwu Barrier.

The lead man was inwardly shocked, this young man only had the strength of Divine Transformation but could easily block his attack without any harm, indeed not to be underestimated!

Thankfully, his move wasn’t aimed to kill Carson, but to stall him from subduing the Spectral Elemental Fire.

And he had succeeded.

It was indeed a strike from one with the Great Perfection of Hollow Void, something Carson couldn’t ignore; as he defended, a Flying Sword aimed at the Spectral Elemental Fire.

The previously calm Spectral Elemental Fire seemed enraged by this strike, suddenly drifting to the side and, with a distinct person-like behavior, blew towards the approaching Carson.

A silent white flame rushed towards Carson rapidly, and Kash Lam overhead, frightened, yelled, "Be careful! Don’t let it touch you!"

Carson wasn’t rushed; a spell landed on his Water-Fire Mirror, and a glow of fire sparked, sweeping out a red light screen instantly.

The incoming white fireball was swept by the red light screen, instantly losing its struggle like a fish caught in a net, and was swallowed by the red light into the Water-Fire Mirror.

Kash Lam excitedly yelled, "Awesome!"

The masked men in black robes watched this scene, their eyes fixed on the Water-Fire Mirror in Carson’s hands, heating up significantly.

This mirror could even absorb the Spectral Elemental Fire, one of the origin powers—no wonder Demetrius Hester of Youyan Pavilion was so keen, and Selena Smith and others openly fought for it despite Carson’s Human Emperor status.

This mirror was too strong!

They couldn’t let him get close to the Spectral Elemental Fire; otherwise, he might easily take it away, and their plans for the future would be untenable.

If they killed him today, then the Emperor Seal, the mirror, and the Spectral Elemental Fire would all be theirs, and they’d also get the reward from the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Array!

Thinking this, the lead masked man felt an even hotter surge of emotion.

Seeing its attack fail and its flames directly swallowed by the magical mirror, the Spectral Elemental Fire seemed frightened, turned, and charged into the cemetery, diving into a grave before Carson could get closer.

"Bang!"

The grave suddenly exploded, and a shadow shot out from it, launching a ferocious attack on Carson—a resurrected corpse!

Seeing the Spectral Elemental Fire dive into the grave, Carson was already prepared; seeing the resurrected corpse charging at him, he took a step and instantly disappeared from the spot.

The resurrected was a square-faced middle-aged man with full killing intent, swinging a broken sword that seemed as if it could split the heavenly dome.

Strong!

Carson was shocked, still pondering how to deal with this resurrected man, when suddenly, another grave burst open!
