This person hid in the crowd, not showing their face, but constantly changing positions to make noise and incite the crowd's emotions; their intentions were extremely malicious.
However, in the tense situation in Chengdu, where even the air was so dry that sparks flew, such despicable tactics were very effective.
Many people were blinded by greed, their adrenaline surging, and they were in a state of extreme agitation, like dry tinder doused in gasoline, ready to ignite at any moment. Stirred up by his words, figures flashed by, and a few people in the crowd couldn't hold back and rushed out.
"Hand over all your treasures..."
"Haha, die!"
Amidst the sinister laughter, bursts of energy surged forth, and the weaker, older powerhouses on the Elemental Altar became the targets of everyone's attacks. Picking on the weakest, almost all the attacks converged and rushed towards these individuals.
Just then--
"Snort!"
A soft snort struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer, leaving them feeling terrified and their mouths dry.
A blue figure flickered above the Elemental Altar.
Emperor Yassin, who had been silent all along, suddenly made his move without warning.
The men who leaped up had no time to react before being struck by an invisible, hidden force. Before they could even scream, a series of loud bangs echoed as they exploded in mid-air like lit firecrackers, turning into a cloud of blood mist. Limbs and severed bodies flew everywhere, and torrential rain of blood fell from the sky...
This sudden turn of events shocked everyone around.
"Damn it, he killed someone! He struck first! Damn it, how could he be so ruthless? What are you all hesitating for? Let's attack together, kill this murderous demon, and steal his treasures. We don't need to fight such a ruthless demon one-on-one..."
The voice that had been secretly making a fuss and stirring things up before reappeared.
This is an extremely cunning fellow. When he speaks, his voice constantly changes direction, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes up, sometimes down, making it impossible to catch his movements and find him among more than a hundred people.
However--
call out!!!
Emperor Yassin flicked his finger, and a wisp of golden sword energy slashed through the sky.
"Ah..."
A scream rang out, and the jeering abruptly ceased.
Among the crowd, a lean man with triangular eyes, around thirty years old, clutched his throat, letting out a hoarse roar, and collapsed to the ground in despair.
Emperor Yassin a man of great stature; he had long ago identified those who were stirring up trouble and struck them deadly with a single blow.
Such power and ferocity stunned the many powerful figures below the Elemental Altar. They looked at each other in dismay, no longer daring to act rashly. Emperor Yassin's eyes swept across them like lightning, and everyone felt a stinging pain in their eyes and cheeks as if being scraped by a knife. No one dared to meet his gaze and lowered their heads.
"This is the border of the Zenit Empire. Anyone who deliberately incites trouble shall die!"
The cold words and domineering phrases silenced the entire small square; no one dared to utter a word in rebuttal.
Although no one recognized the blue-haired middle-aged man displaying such power, Emperor Yassin's forceful statement was enough to make those who were preparing to stir up a chaotic battle and fish in troubled waters below the Elemental Altar feel as if they were in an ice cave, and could only forcibly suppress the burning desire and greed in their hearts and act according to the situation.
"Walk!"
After stunning everyone, Emperor Yassin had no intention of lingering any longer. He led his guards down the Elemental Altar and headed towards the outer perimeter.
Wherever he went, the powerful figures beneath the Elemental Altar avoided him like the plague, making way for him.
Emperor Yassin strolled away leisurely, taking his time.
Just as his figure was about to disappear around the corner of the street at the edge of the square, he seemed to remember something, turned around, and fixed his gaze on the Necromancer wearing the Y-mask on the Elemental Altar. A flash of fighting spirit appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly asked, "Was it you who killed Domenech?"
The core world has been completely shut down, and anyone who hasn't yet appeared at the Elemental Altar has naturally perished inside.
Domenech has not yet appeared, so he is obviously dead.
Among those who had entered the core small world, in Emperor Yassin's view, the only one with the strength to kill someone like Domenech was this masked man in black armor whose strength was unpredictable and whose origins were unknown. Emperor Yassin sensed the aura of Great Sun-Rank Venerable from this man.
Hasselbaink nodded.
"Very well, I apologize for the inconvenience today. I look forward to fighting you in the future." Emperor Yassin nodded.
He hadn't expected that a Cheng Yaojin would appear out of nowhere and kill Domenech, thus disrupting some of his plans. Yassin was a man of great pride and domineering nature. Although Hasselbaink's killing of Domenech might have been unintentional, in his eyes it was an offense against his authority, and naturally he wouldn't let it go so easily.
In that small, unintentional moment, it was already decided that a battle was inevitable between the two.
However, the Necromancer's hidden strength was such that even Yassin, who was known as "unrivaled in his life," was not confident of victory at this moment. In addition, there were still many things to be done, so this battle naturally had to be postponed for the time being.
"I'm looking forward to it." The Necromancer's tone was calm, without any fear in it.
Emperor Yassin snorted coldly and suddenly asked, "Where is Alexander?" In his view, with King of Chambord's strength and fortune, it was impossible for him to have perished in the small world, but at this moment he was nowhere to be seen. After all, he was a rising star of the Zenit Empire, so Emperor Yassin couldn't help but ask.
"They left long ago." The Necromancer said calmly.
"Oh, interesting." Emperor Yassin paused for a moment, then a smile appeared on his lips, as if he had thought of something. He stopped speaking, turned around, and led his guards away slowly and deliberately.
Everyone watched as the god-like figure disappeared into the distance. Only when they could no longer sense the terrifying, sharp metal-type Dou Qi aura, which was as sharp as a divine weapon, did they breathe a sigh of relief, and the feeling of trepidation in their hearts gradually disappeared.
The atmosphere at the scene immediately became heavy again.
Without Emperor Yassin's suppression, the greed and madness in the hearts of the many powerful figures beneath the Elemental Altar gradually resurfaced. Although Emperor Yassin had uttered harsh words before leaving, now that he was gone, a single sentence could not suppress these desperate individuals. The treasures that might be hidden on the lucky ones on the altar were even more alluring.
Splash!
Ajax raised his hand, and a fist-sized [ Sand of Earth's Fury ] floated above the heads of the group of five, casting wisps of orange-yellow mist that enveloped him and the Fairenton. Without a word, he walked directly towards the Elemental Altar.
" Demigod Dou Weapon?!"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise, recognizing the terrifying power and pressure unique to the Demigod Dou Weapon through the countless facets of this fist-sized sand, and immediately moved aside as if avoiding a snake or scorpion.
A Upper-Stage Full Moon Class expert wielding Demigod Dou Weapon is enough to sweep away any opponent below the Great Sun-Rank Venerable realm. The advantage in numbers cannot compensate for the absolute power of the opponent. Even if all the hundred or so people present were combined, they wouldn't be enough to kill the Ajax Emperor. No one dared to go up and die.
Soon, Fairenton and his group also left safely.
Whoosh!
The alluring and beautiful Crown Prince Gilano of the Saint-Germain Empire, as captivating as a woman, showed no intention of lingering. Waving her [ Black Crystal Staff ], she unleashed a cloud of black mist that enveloped herself and her four stunning concubines, allowing them to float more than twenty meters above the ground as if riding on clouds, gracefully heading towards the outer edge of the plaza...
"Another Demigod Dou Weapon?"
The powerful figures beneath the Elemental Altar swallowed hard, their throats dry, yet they dared not step forward to stop them, watching helplessly as five more people left.
At this moment, only seven elderly powerhouses who had previously entered the core small world thanks to Sun Fei's protection, and eight Necromancer remained on the Elemental Altar.
Emperor Yassin's previous words led many powerful figures beneath the Elemental Altar to classify the Necromancer as someone "not to be trifled with"—how could they possibly provoke someone capable of fighting a powerhouse like Emperor Yassin?
Therefore, the seven elderly powerhouses, whose strength was not particularly outstanding and who did not have any Demigod Dou Weapon protecting them, immediately became easy targets in everyone's eyes.
"You seven, hand over all the herbs and treasures you have, and I guarantee you can leave alive." From the crowd, a powerful figure with strength at the Upper-Stage Half Moon Class stepped forward, making no attempt to hide his greedy gaze as he pointed arrogantly at the seven people.
"What are you old fools dawdling for? Hurry up and hand over what you have, do you want to die?" Another powerful figure stepped forward to intimidate them.
More and more powerful figures stepped forward to intimidate, and the crowd gradually surrounded the Elemental Altar. Once they stepped onto the Elemental Altar, none of them had a friendly expression.
They chose this moment to ambush them here; none of them were kind-hearted, all harboring thoughts of murder and robbery. If it weren't for the strong performance of Emperor Yassin and his group earlier, this place would probably have long been a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Now, watching the other ten people leave, the greed and murderous intent in their hearts were almost uncontrollable.
"You..." The Old Man's faces turned as red as pig liver, and their white beards trembled with anger, but there was nothing they could do.
The air was thick with killing intent. Although they had made significant breakthroughs in the small world, they were powerless to fight against such a large number of powerful individuals.
An Old Man pleaded earnestly, offering to give up some of the thousand-year-old herbs and treasures on their body, but hoping to keep a little bit for the purpose of prolonging their life.
"No, bring them all out! If you dare to hide even a single herb, I'll kill you all!"
"Why waste time arguing with these old geezers? Just kill them all, and all the treasures will be ours..."
"Alright, kill them all!"
A surge of murderous power erupted, and someone was already preparing to make a move.
Hidden to the side, Sun Fei shook his head slightly and sighed. He had brought these Old Man into the core world out of momentary pity, but he never expected that it would bring them such a deadly disaster. It was a case of "I didn't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren has to die because of me." This was not the scene that Sun Fei wanted to see.
"Fine, let's finish this good deed and do it all the way. Let's help them one more time today."
With a thought, the [ Throne of Chaotic Times ] rippled outwards, carrying Sun Fei to the Elemental Altar, where he stood between the seven Old Man and the numerous greedy thugs whose eyes had turned completely red.
Third update.
