However, Ye Chen was disappointed, he did not find the legendary old Dragon King!

In the legends, the Dragon King of the South Sea had battled with the Land Gods. If such an unparalleled figure were to descend, it's likely they would stand shoulder to shoulder with the Warring Kings. Where would they conceal their form?

A transcendent being like Na Wudao would radiate his own brilliance wherever he went, reaching the pinnacle of sublimation, because his existence was a supreme honor in itself!

"Grandmasters converging, how many peerless figures are there in this secluded forest? Even I am somewhat uncertain," Ye Chen said.

Ye Chen sensed the many terrifying auras, but how many martial artists had gathered here, he was also somewhat unsure.

These unparalleled experts were like dormant beasts, utterly inscrutable.

"Even if you are a beauty, even if you are interested in me, you shouldn't be staring at me like this, right?"

Fang Ruolan stared at Ye Chen like a statue without blinking an eyelid, making him feel quite uncomfortable.

"My master could arrive at any moment. Her methods of killing are strange and formless, I must watch you die and not miss a single exciting moment!" Fang Ruolan said coldly.

"..." Ye Chen felt a chill run down his spine.

"You must die!" Fang Ruolan said quietly.

"You silly girl, are you stupid?" Ye Chen was exasperated. If not for the consideration of the mysterious corpse Gu protecting Fang Ruolan, he would have stripped this Fang Ruolan naked and spanked her hard by now.

Fang Ruolan did not speak, standing there like a clay sculpture, coldly observing Ye Chen.

"..."

The weirdness of Fang Ruolan made Ye Chen rub his arms, feeling somewhat spooked. Her terrifying master wouldn't really stoop to kill him personally, would she?!

"Ancient powers have left their inheritance here, within the cave dwelling lies a heaven-defying transformation, awaiting the chosen one!" Just then, the commanding figure of the Warring King spoke. "Today, the world's martial artists have mostly gathered here, Song Deyu is of modest talent, and I humbly request my fellow practitioners to come forward and have a discussion about the cave dwelling and that heaven-defying transformation!"

Song Deyu was an unparalleled figure among the emperors, kings, and heroes, a being rumored to have battled with the Land Gods. At this moment, his voice thundered like celestial drums, causing the hidden hearts of the martial artists from all directions to tremble and startling many birds and beasts in the forest.

As most of the martial artists from the ten directions gathered, the Warring Kings finally took the lead in this meeting of the Peak Group.

"The Warring King's demeanor is unsurpassed, truly a figure who contended with Land Gods!"

A resounding cry arose as a peerless Grandmaster appeared, slightly bowing to the Warring King who was seated in the place of honor.

The Warring King was a colossus in the martial arts world, one of the highest-ranking individuals of this era, with many of the current talented figures being his juniors.

"It turns out to be the great virtuous one who meditates in West Tiger's Mouth, the Grandmaster of Three Rivers!" Song Deyu stood up and returned the bow.

The reputation of the Three Rivers Grandmaster was profound; he was a peak Grandmaster himself. Even if he was not listed among the Qingyun List, he was not far from it.

The courtesy of the Warring King moved the Three Rivers Grandmaster, and his expression shifted. In his early years, the Warring King was a fearsome and malevolent figure, known to have wrought untold slaughter. Rumor had it that he had been undertaking ascetic practice in the mountains in recent years. Surprisingly, the old king's character had become increasingly transcendent, and his former murderous aura seemed to have dissipated like smoke and clouds.

"Mr. Song, you have been in seclusion for so long that I thought you had entered Nirvana!" A dragon-like surge of energy shot up into the sky, emanating from a Qingyun strongman. However, his tone was extremely hostile, as if he had a grudge against the Warring King. "Fellow martial artists, do not hide but come forward quickly, let us see what affairs the Warring Kings have to discuss with us, the martial artists from the ten directions!"

This Qingyun strongman's skyward howl began to summon the martial artists, but his words seemed laced with provocation, his intent most sinister.

With the summons of the Qingyun, the multitude of heroes hidden within this forest finally stopped lying dormant and burst out in an instant.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Ye Chen suddenly felt an inexplicable tremor in his heart, as the vital energies soared into the sky like myriad fireworks exploding. These auras were some wild, some domineering, some refined, some unrestrained…

Grandmasters converged, heroes from all directions, well over a hundred in number—if such an array of matchless individuals were to form an alliance, even a Land God in person would struggle to suppress them!

"Today's Peak Group meeting is so lively, with so many Grandmasters gathered, it's truly a feast of the mighty!"

"The three kings of the chaotic era are renowned, issuing invitations to the heroes, who among the heroes from all directions would dare not to come?!"

"My body is nearly decaying, I wanted to use my remaining life to wander the world leisurely, but I did not expect to see so many of my peers!"

"Grandmasters are everywhere here, it seems that a great many of Huaxia's mighty have probably come here!"

"We are all of the younger generation, originally intending to join in the excitement at the Peak Group, but who would have thought we'd see so many senior experts!"

All the heroes from all directions revealed themselves, each hero's body emanating a sky-reaching energy. There were far more than a hundred Grandmasters here, their energies intertwined and shot skyward like a colossal tornado. Such a sight was extremely terrifying, one that even Grandmaster-level figures would find rare in their lifetimes!

Grandmaster-level figures are always as elusive as dragons, typically gathering in groups of three to five is already a crowd, never before has there been such a grand occasion like this!

One after another, peerless Grandmasters descended, filling Ye Chen's heart with shock. Although he had anticipated it, knowing that the Peak Group would be such a magnificent spectacle, yet when a hundred Grandmasters appeared together, the sheer momentum still made him uncontrollably tremble.

At the Peak Group, one aimed to use battle to suppress all heroes, could this shocking and magnificent undertaking be accomplished?

Ye Chen watched Na Wudao with some bewilderment. The aged king's face was calm, his gaze sweeping over the heroes from all directions that had appeared here.

"Na Wudao, by summoning the heroes here, what exactly do you intend to do?"

"Setting up a grand arena here, could it be you, with your towering reputation, intend to suppress these heroes from all directions?"

"That mighty figure's ancient tomb is about to emerge, that is what we are most worried about, what does it mean for the three kings to set up an arena here?"

A grand arena was constructed in this small forest, large enough to accommodate a hundred zhang, where Grandmaster figures could fight unrestrained.

The three kings of the chaotic era stood proudly atop the arena, their gazes sweeping over the assembled heroes from all directions, displaying an invincible and lofty presence.

However, those present were all proud and rebellious, pinnacle individuals who dominated a territory, and even with the infamous brutality of the three kings, they formed groups without fear.

In fact, the three kings had a notorious past, having committed numerous killings, and many of the assembled heroes held some grudge against them.

"Everyone knows, this place is about to receive a supreme opportunity, but entering that mighty figure's ancient tomb entails endless danger. I've summoned the heroes from all directions this time to form an alliance, to better seek out the many fortunes within that tomb!" Na Wudao's voice boomed like spring thunder.

Originally, many of the mighty had been expressing their opinions, but as soon as Na Wudao's voice rang out, it silenced all other discussion.

The atmosphere on-site became eerily quiet as all the heroes from all directions gazed towards the three kings on the arena, weighing the pros and cons of forming an alliance in their hearts.
