Chapter 2259 - Bro, You’re A Dragon

"Hahaha! They rolled over! I’m the fiercest!" Lan Huang looked up to the sky and laughed. Then it slammed into a hard ore and was immediately bruised.

"That’s what you call ‘too much joy brings sorrow’!"

With an angry roar, Lan Huang split the divine ore in half with its tail. "Stupid rock, you dare sneak an attack on this tortoise?!"

Tianming wanted to say, Bro, you’re really a dragon.

With Yin Chen and Lan Huang’s help, Tianming was approaching the center of the Pentaphase Ocean and he didn’t even have to do anything.

"Right now… we are… faster than… most people," Yin Chen said.

"That’s great." Tianming eagerly looked ahead.

"But there… is already… quite a… few people… close to… the center!"

In fact, they were more likely to get lost in the outer ring of the Pentaphase Ocean. Once they reached the beast horde, it became easier to determine the center. Those that could approach the center past the raging wildbeasts were basically astral gods, Tianming's toughest competitors.

"You can say that I’m not even qualified to compete with them!"

They were hundred-year-old disciples, but there was nothing Tianming could do. The huge difference in cultivation time was his weakness, and he didn’t feel good about it at all. Even so, Lan Huang and Yin Chen were still pushing themselves to the limit. Although many Yin Chens were being continuously destroyed by the Pentaphase Ocean, it still continued acting as Lan Huang’s eyes and ears, opening a path for the giant beast. The nova wildbeasts were unpredictable. When they encountered humans and lifebound beasts, they would madly attack.

Tianming had to avoid high-deific-class beasts. Attracting even one of them would waste too much time, and it was best to steer clear of low-sanctuary-class beasts. Those might kill them.

"Hurry up!"

Lan Huang's nine kui seas rapidly rotated as it split apart the waves, forging a path through the Pentaphase Ocean.

"We are… almost there!" Yin Chen shouted.

"Is there anyone else there?" Tianming could already see his destination ahead. In the center of the Pentaphase Ocean was a silent area, much like the eye of a storm. The manna, ring, and ring finger were all there. As soon as they arrived, Tianming had Lan Huang return to his lifebound space and hid himself.

"There is… no one… but—" At such a critical moment, Yin Chen's speech impediment was a real headache.

When he heard that there was no one, Tianming flickered toward the last wave of divine hazards and into the center, and only then did he hear Yin Chen's following words.

"But there... are people… nearby nearby…." Before Yin Chen could finish speaking, Tianming's gaze had already crossed the divine hazards and landed on several people who’d rushed into the center.

They’re all orderans. It's over… Tianming cried out in his heart. He was just a single step behind. Even if he was already a fifth-level stellaminor, he wasn’t even qualified to take a gamble in the face of astralsea divinities. It would be difficult once he missed it; in fact, he might be more than just a step behind.

"I need at least half an hour to go in, grab the item, and get out." All in all, he was a few steps too late. At this point, Tianming was extremely anxious.

"It's okay. Objectively speaking, you’re sixty, or even seventy years younger than them. There’s nothing you can do!" After laying eyes on their would-be opponents, Ying Huo didn't propose they go up and fight them either, because they were all ebon disciples dressed in black and red robes. The orders they possessed gave off a huge pressure, which proved that they were indeed astral gods. At least two of them were even stronger than Lin Jianxing. Tianming’s strength was far behind theirs, but what made him even more helpless were the ebon disciples that arrived while Ying Huo was speaking. With the addition of more than a dozen of them, there were now over twenty ebons and the number was still increasing. When the beast horde appeared, other disciples had avoided this place while the ebons chose to approach, looking for suitable warbeasts. One after another, powerful hundred-year-old disciples arrived.

The most frightening part was the fact that they didn't compete or fight among each other. They didn’t give others a chance at all. As soon as they arrived in the area, all of them quickly grouped together and formed a circle around the treasure. One person was in charge of grabbing items, while everyone else protected him. Thus, even if disciples from other forces entered, they would immediately give up upon seeing such a large group.

"The Lin Clan thinks that they’re the most united, but it looks like the ebons are the truly united ones.” Tianming could only helplessly and enviously look at the area surrounded by them.

There were hundreds of manna, which looked just like orders. The many layers of ordered manna gave off a dazzling glow. The ebons people had quickly arrived, because they had also been drawn by the bright light. The ordered manna were a spectacular sight indeed. In the center of the manna was a black pillar shaped like a ring finger made of stone, but not the ring itself. That was made of a mysterious jet black material and looked very simple, exactly the same as the image within the green skeleton.

"Its material is a bit like the chaos worldbangle." Of course, Tianming wouldn't think the mysterious ring was a chaos worldbangle just because of that.

By that time, fifty people had entered the center. Only five or six were disciples from other forces, while the remaining were all ebons. They were all protecting one person and vigilantly staring at the others. It was obvious that they didn't know what had awaited them before they arrived, so most of them were shocked by the manna. In the beginning, the ebon that was being protected by his companions had focused on taking the manna, only noticing the ring finger halfway through.

"You and you, put away the rest of the manna." After assigning two ebon disciples, the man quickly approached the stone pillar.

Seeing his reaction, Tianming knew that things were now completely hopeless.

"There’s too many ebons, so there’s nothing the other astral gods can do. They won’t get anything."

It was also a coincidence that the ebons were all nearby. In any other area, fighting might still occur and Tianming would be able to fish in troubled waters. But the only thing he could do now was helplessly watch. Among the ebons were at least thirty astral gods. To intimidate their opponents, they even let loose a large number of warbeasts, completely surrounding the treasure. Anyone that dared approach would be courting death! Tianming could only cast an envious gaze at the disciple the others regarded as their superior.
