Chapter 2566: Chapter 2567: A Chance Discovery of a Gem

If I were to be slightly careless, the rope could be cut by someone else, and it’s very likely that I would fall into the abyss, entering an irrecoverable situation.

"Didn’t I tell you not to be in a hurry? What’s the rush?"

Although the Supreme Elder also wants to save Lin Chen and successfully complete his mission, his efforts are insufficient. Eastern Earth Ancient God, Old Ancestor of Tianshan, these people aren’t easy to deal with and are not ones he can beat.

Even though the Supreme Elder is highly skilled, the opponents are numerous and powerful, cultivators with many years of experience. It is impossible for him to defeat them easily.

Nangong Xue watched as the young tyrant slowly approached her step by step, feeling an unprecedented chill and despair, knowing that the Nangong family was truly finished today.

Since the day she took over the heavy responsibilities of the Nangong family from her father, she promised him that she would make the Nangong family prosper again, no matter what.

But over the years, not only has the Nangong family shown no signs of recovery, it has fallen into decay and decline, even the elders chose to defect and the young tyrant turned against them.

The young tyrant raised his hammer high above his head and brought it down swiftly towards Nangong Xue’s head.

Just when the young tyrant’s hammer was about to land on Nangong Xue’s head, suddenly a person appeared in front of the young tyrant, using his hands to block the giant iron hammer in the tyrant’s hand.

The young tyrant was surprised, as he struck with all his strength with that hammer, wondering who could withstand it.

Upon opening his eyes, he discovers that it is the Supreme Elder standing before him, helping Nangong Xue at a critical moment.

"Young girl, this time I help you out of respect for your father. Were it according to our Holy Maiden’s wishes, I would certainly kill you, not save you."

The Supreme Elder still remembers Xiao Ying’s words before leaving.

No matter what, find the person who harmed Lin Chen and eliminate them; no one in this world has the right to harm him.

Although Lin Chen was framed by others, Nangong Xue was still the instigator of some of these things. The decision rests in his hands; if he refuses to relent, this situation wouldn’t happen.

After saving the other person, the Supreme Elder quickly dispersed to face other powerful figures.

Seizing this opportunity, Nangong Xue stood up from the ground again, gripping her weapon as she faced the young tyrant.

"This time, I will never let the situation like before happen again."

Nangong Xue charged swiftly towards the young tyrant, her weapon in hand, with enhanced strength and speed compared to before, causing the young tyrant to tremble in fear.

It must be admitted that Nangong Xue’s speed now is much improved from before, and the young tyrant has no idea why.

Unbeknownst to him, when Nangong Xue was rescued, the Supreme Elder taught her some combat techniques.

After all, the Supreme Elder is a top-tier terrifying figure, with extraordinary skills and strength, hence even his casual guidance would be sufficient to match the young tyrant.

The fundamental reason those Ancient Gods have come to this place is to slay Lin Chen, indifferent to other matters.

Seeing the abyss below, they intend to let Lin Chen fall from the cliff, shattering to pieces.

Thus, the Ancient God swiftly approaches the cliff, gazing at Lin Chen hanging on the rope.

"Never thought you’d have today; how does swinging in mid-air feel?"

"How does it feel, you bastard? Tell you what, if you have the guts, kill me." Lin Chen said defiantly.

Lin Chen instead wishes the enemy would cut his rope, causing him to fall into the abyss.

Because he desires to know the nature of the gem beneath the abyss; can it really enhance his skills?

"Well, that’s your wish; since you seek death, I’ll grant it."

The Ancient God conjures a fierce flame from his hand and throws it towards the rope in the air. Just before the flame was about to strike the rope, the Supreme Elder steps in again.

Unbelievably, the Supreme Elder uses his own body to intercept the flame, although he is highly skilled, the Ancient God is also a top-tier entity.

Consequently, the Supreme Elder feels a sharp pain in his chest, followed by falling from mid-air to the ground.

The Supreme Elder covers his chest with his hand, coughing violently, then spits out a mouthful of black blood.

"Truly one who doesn’t know his limits."

The Ancient God launches another attack on Lin Chen; this time, with no interference, the fierce flame strikes the rope, and Lin Chen lets out a roar as he falls into the abyss.

Witnessing this, the Supreme Elder burns with anger.

Because the Supreme Elder knows exactly what this means; if Lin Chen falls into the abyss, the Holy Maiden will never agree to their terms, which will lead to the Azure Dragon Clan’s demise.

The Supreme Elder slowly turns around, unexpectedly igniting a blazing flame from his body, and lets out a roar, forming a giant dragon in mid-air.

The dragon exudes majesty and tyranny, leaving many people pale with shock.

Those present are cultivators of many years, therefore they’re well aware of the identity of the dragon in the sky, this is known as the legendary Fire Flame Dragon Technique.

Everyone standing below remains immobile at this moment.

They are shaken like never before; initially believing the Fire Flame Dragon Technique was mere boastful exaggeration, something non-existent in history.

But until this moment, they realized the truth wasn’t so; such formidable power truly exists.

These people indirectly caused the destruction of the Holy Maiden by killing Lin Chen, thus plunging the Azure Dragon Clan into irrevocable ruin.

These people must die.

With a roar, the dragon lunges rapidly towards the people on the ground; upon seeing this, the Ancient God forms a huge shield in front of him.

With that, the dragon crashes into the shield.

The Ancient God possesses considerable confidence in his abilities, believing he can block the opponent’s attack, but the outcome is unexpected.

The Ancient God’s shield quickly dissipates.
