Chapter 983 979: Suanni Bloodline
Human King Hall disciples face significant risks when carrying out their missions.
If they encounter beings far more powerful than themselves, they may fall.
Therefore, each time they undertake a mission, they strive to earn more Human Race Contribution Points, using them to exchange for treasures to enhance their combat strength.
This time, having the chance to carry out the demon-slaying mission alongside Ye Chen, the number one in the Inner Hall, is undoubtedly a perfect opportunity to accumulate Human Race Contribution Points.
Even if they unwittingly encounter a Quasi-God's offspring, Ye Chen will stand in their defense.
As long as they aren't overly unfortunate, they should be able to return alive.
"I'm still three thousand contribution points short of exchanging them for Fire Dragon Grass; just need to slay six more demons of the Profound Pill Realm."
"With Senior Brother Ye Chen watching over us, we're sure to succeed," said the excited disciples of the Inner Hall, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
The next moment, under Ye Chen's lead, they charged towards another group of demons.
...
"As expected of a candidate Saint Son from Ziwei Sacred Land, he's quite skilled, much better than those useless ones," sneered a demon wearing black armor from another corner of the battlefield.
This demon, whose appearance was similar to a human, had bent horns protruding from his forehead, with terrifyingly cold demonic qi emanating from his body, freezing even the surrounding void.
His name was Bing Luo, hailing from the Ice Demon Race, his strength extraordinarily powerful, surpassing the Golden Core Realm threshold.
Even the core disciples from Ziwei Sacred Land couldn't match him.
And at this moment, a burly young man, clad in golden armor, was standing in opposition to him.
This golden-armored youth, named Zhao Jun, was the candidate Saint Son of Ziwei Sacred Land.
Even prodigies like Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan were no match for him.
Yet, at this moment, his expression was grave, as if facing a great enemy.
Because the Ice Demon opposing him was overwhelmingly strong, even Zhao Jun had no confidence in victory.
"Damn it! Why is this happening? This demon's power is unbelievably terrifying, even Senior Brother Zhao can't overcome him."
"Could it be his strength has surpassed the Golden Core Realm threshold?" The disciples from Ziwei Sacred Land beside Zhao Jun looked extremely troubled, their eyes full of apprehension.
It's known that to reach the Golden Core Realm threshold requires a combat strength equivalent to ten billion tigers.
Even core disciples like Ji Mengxuan, who have awakened the Celestial Level Seventh Grade bloodline, can't achieve that, let alone ordinary disciples.
Although Zhao Jun was a candidate Saint Son from Ziwei Sacred Land, his strength was barely at the Golden Core Realm threshold.
If the Ice Demon truly possessed strength beyond the Golden Core Realm threshold, then today the chances of survival for everyone were grim.
"I'll hold him off, you hurry and break through, escape as far as possible," Zhao Jun said with utmost seriousness.
Roar!
The next moment, behind him, loomed a towering figure as tall as a hundred meters, like an Ancient Divine Mountain, exerting immense pressure.
This was an Exotic Beast with a lion-like shape but with a True Dragon's head, cascading golden lightning all over its body.
"The Suanni Bloodline! It's Senior Brother Zhao's Suanni Bloodline!"
"Quick, let's break through and not waste Zhao's good intentions." The disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land, excited, surged with overwhelming battle spirit.
Zhao Jun's candidacy as a Saint Son of Ziwei Sacred Land was due to his awakening of the Suanni Bloodline.
Suanni Bloodline is a Celestial Level Fifth Grade bloodline, its rank undiminished compared to the Cyan Dragon Bloodline of Shangguan Zitong.
After all, Suanni is a legendary Dragon's offspring, certainly not weak.
If the concentration of Zhao Jun's Suanni Bloodline wasn't merely Two-Star.
He might have had hopes of becoming the Saint Son of Ziwei Sacred Land.
Still, the Suanni Bloodline endows him with colossal power, granting him the threshold power of the Golden Core Realm.
Ordinary demon experts aren't a match against him.
Unexpectedly, he found himself unfortunate enough to encounter Bing Luo right after entering the Dark Mountain Range.
Clearly, he severely underestimated the demons of the Outer Realm.
"Ha! With such a low concentration of Suanni Bloodline, you think you can challenge me, what arrogance," Bing Luo sneered, disdainfulness etched across his mouth.
Indeed!
Suanni, as a species, is undeniably powerful, feared even by most demons.
If Bing Luo faced a pureblood Suanni, he'd lose the nerve to resist.
Unfortunately, this mixed-blood Human Race merely harbors Suanni Bloodline, and only Two-Star concentrated at that.
Therefore, Bing Luo dismisses him entirely.
"Don't gloat, attack." Zhao Jun's eyes blazed with fury, maneuvering the formidable Suanni to lunge at Bing Luo.
As a Divine Spirit Family Zhao Race genius, he's been enveloped in an aura of brilliance since youth and has never been underestimated so.
So naturally, he was instantly provoked.
"Senior Brother Zhao is holding him off, now's our chance, let's break through,"
At that moment, other Ziwei Sacred Land disciples launched at surrounding demon forces.
Boom!
Instantly, a terrifying battle broke loose.
Various violent powers suddenly caused the surrounding void to collapse and shatter, even the mountain range beneath was flattened, resembling the end of the world.
Indeed, the disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land are quite strong, far exceeding those of first or second tier Immortal Sects.
After all, most of them have awakened Celestial Level bloodlines, none too weak.
As time passed, they eventually began to carve out a bloody path.
Ah!
But, just then, horrific screams echoed through the high skies, chilling to the bone.
Only to see Zhao Jun's body fling through the air like a meteor, a Cold Ice Spear impaled in his chest.
Surprisingly, he was injured so quickly by the Ice Demon expert.
"No! How did this happen?"
"Even Senior Brother Zhao can't handle him; surely, we're doomed today." The disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land spoke, faces aghast, utterly despaired.
"Kill them all, leave none alive," Bing Luo commanded coldly, with killing intent radiating from his form, causing souls to shiver involuntarily.
"I never expected an Ice Demon with a Nascent Soul Bloodline here; this could be quite the bounty," chimed the voice of the chubby Guo Xi, suddenly bursting through the crowd, sounding extremely delighted.
