Chapter 132: The Divine Pill of the Enraged Ape

“The Princess Qianxue of the Spring and Autumn Sacred Kingdom has arrived!”

“It has already spread throughout the Sacred Region that this princess of the Spring and Autumn Sacred Kingdom possesses the bloodline of a divine phoenix and is extraordinarily powerful!”

“This is simply unbelievable. How could the princess of the Spring and Autumn Sacred Kingdom possess the bloodline of a divine phoenix?”

“I heard that three days ago, she even beat the young master of the demon race senseless. Who would have thought that, despite her stunning beauty, she would have such a vicious temperament?”

“…”

With the arrival of Chen Changsheng and the others, a great uproar immediately swept across the enormous martial arena.

Countless complicated gazes fell upon Donggong Qianxue.

Clearly, the news that Donggong Qianxue possessed the bloodline of a divine phoenix and had defeated the young master of the demon race, Di Yi, had already spread throughout the Sacred Region.

Facing the murmurs rising from the arena, not the slightest emotion appeared on Donggong Qianxue’s exquisite little face. She merely followed the others to the viewing platform reserved for the demon race and took her seat.

Among the crowd, Mo Yinyue, prince of the Molou Sacred Kingdom; Murong Lan, princess of the Divine Moon Sacred Kingdom; and Xiahou Liang, prince of the Azure Snow Sacred Kingdom, all stared fixedly at Donggong Qianxue.

Suddenly, Mo Yinyue gazed at Donggong Qianxue from afar and smiled faintly. “The stronger the princess of the Spring and Autumn Sacred Kingdom is, the more impressive it will be when I defeat her. That will better demonstrate my superiority.”

“Princess Qianxue, you have arrived?”

Fairy Dantai Wushuang led Nongyu and Xianlan down from the sky, landing directly before Donggong Qianxue. With a faint smile, she said, “Earlier, I spoke with the princess of the Divine Moon Sacred Kingdom. She has agreed to join forces with you and deal with Mo Yinyue and Xiahou Liang first.”

Donggong Qianxue narrowed her eyes and glanced at Murong Lan in the distance before giving a slight nod. “All right.”

“Also, when the battle begins, you must discuss your strategy carefully. Although your strength is formidable, Xiahou Liang’s Six Demonic Gates and Mo Yinyue’s Maitreya Buddha are no ordinary treasures.”

Fairy Dantai Wushuang spoke earnestly.

“Thank you for the reminder, Fairy Dantai. I understand.”

Donggong Qianxue nodded once more.

At that moment, the Ancient Emperor seated on the main viewing platform spoke.

“A month ago, the southeastern, southwestern, northwestern, and northeastern regions of the Snowy Realm each held a Splendid Gathering. The victors of those four gatherings were Donggong Qianxue, princess of the Spring and Autumn Sacred Kingdom in the Eastern Region; Murong Lan, princess of the Divine Moon Sacred Kingdom in the Southern Region; Mo Yinyue, prince of the Molou Sacred Kingdom in the Western Region; and Xiahou Liang, prince of the Azure Snow Sacred Kingdom in the Northern Region.

“These four individuals essentially represent the pinnacle of strength among the younger generation of their respective regions.

“Today is the ultimate examination for these four supreme young talents. Whoever emerges victorious in the end will obtain one of the positions of candidate for Sacred Emperor.”

The Ancient Emperor’s voice contained incomparably majestic profound energy. It instantly suppressed the wave-like uproar filling the arena, and every word rang clearly in the ears of everyone present.

“Well, enough idle chatter. I now announce that the ultimate examination begins.”

The Ancient Emperor’s voice rang out loudly. Then he cast a distant glance at Chen Changsheng, who sat upon the viewing platform.

He had no interest whatsoever in this ultimate examination. The only people who truly concerned him were this Young Master Chen and Donggong Qianxue.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The moment the Ancient Emperor finished speaking, Mo Yinyue, Murong Lan, and Xiahou Liang transformed into three afterimages, shooting from the viewing platform and landing in the center of the martial arena.

“Young Master Chen, I’m going.”

Donggong Qianxue smiled faintly at Chen Changsheng.

“Go on.”

Chen Changsheng waved his hand.

“Mm.”

Donggong Qianxue nodded. After greeting the others, she shot from the viewing platform and landed in the center of the arena.

With Donggong Qianxue’s arrival, the burning gazes of Mo Yinyue and Xiahou Liang immediately fixed upon her. In both their hearts, blazing battle intent began to burn fiercely.

The news that Donggong Qianxue possessed the bloodline of a divine phoenix and was extraordinarily powerful had already spread throughout the Sacred Region like wildfire.

Donggong Qianxue ignored Mo Yinyue and Xiahou Liang and instead sent a voice transmission to Murong Lan.

“Princess Murong, did Fairy Dantai speak to you earlier about the two of us joining forces?”

“That’s right,” Murong Lan replied. After a brief pause, she continued, “But clearly, our cooperation is only temporary. Once we eliminate them, we will still have to fight one another. In the end, my arrows will still be aimed at you.”

It was plain to see that this princess of the spirit race possessed an extremely aggressive nature.

“Not necessarily.”

Donggong Qianxue shook her head. “There will be no battle between us, because I do not care about the position of Sacred Emperor candidate at all. I entered this competition solely to help you secure it.”

“What did you say?”

Murong Lan could hardly believe her ears. She turned toward Donggong Qianxue in astonishment. “You don’t care about the position of Sacred Emperor candidate?”

“Mm-hm!”

Donggong Qianxue subtly thrust out her ample chest. Her exquisite face lifted slightly, and a trace of arrogance surfaced in her eyes.

In the future, this princess would enter the Realm of the Gods with Young Master Chen. The position of Sacred Emperor candidate was nothing more than dog excrement in her eyes.

“All right. Put that way, it does sound rather wonderful.”

A pleasant smile had already appeared on Murong Lan’s originally cold and stern face.

She was the sort of woman who rarely smiled. Yet when she did, her beauty became utterly breathtaking. Even Donggong Qianxue felt slightly breathless at the sight.

Murong Lan sent another voice transmission.

“Why is that?”

“Because I belong to Young Master Chen.”

Donggong Qianxue lifted her exquisite little face even higher, and the arrogance in her eyes grew more pronounced.

Murong Lan was bewildered.

Who exactly was Young Master Chen? Could being his person really make someone disdain even the position of Sacred Emperor candidate?

Was that Young Master Chen truly so overbearing?

“Have the two of you finished discussing your alliance?”

Mo Yinyue smiled faintly, though no matter how one looked at that smile, it resembled a lecherous grin.

In his hand, he was already holding a pitch-black Buddha statue.

The statue was approximately five inches tall. It depicted a fat, bare-chested monk with a protruding belly, sitting there and laughing heartily. It was unmistakably the Maitreya Buddha familiar to all.

In his other hand, he held a small white jade bottle with a long neck.

“Allow me to make a little preparation as well.”

As Mo Yinyue spoke, the small white bottle in his hand suddenly shattered with a crisp crack. Amid a faint surge of golden light, a golden pill the size of a thumb joint appeared in his palm.

“The Wrathful Ape Divine Pill!”

Upon seeing the golden pill in his hand, the Ancient Emperor and his son on the main viewing platform exchanged a glance. A smile appeared on both their faces.

Whether the scheme devised by the father and son would succeed in this ultimate examination depended entirely upon that Wrathful Ape Divine Pill.

After taking out the pill, Mo Yinyue swallowed it openly before the eyes of everyone present.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

In an instant, the sound of transforming bones rang out from within Mo Yinyue’s body. His frame then began to expand rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he had grown to a full ten meters tall, standing there like an iron tower.

“Excellent! Wonderful!”

Gu Shaobai nearly burst out laughing.

That fool Mo Yinyue had actually swallowed the Wrathful Ape Divine Pill. It was simply perfect.

The ultimate examination had not even begun, yet it had already become utterly meaningless. Without even having to think, the final victor among the four would undoubtedly be Mo Yinyue.

Then, once Mo Yinyue was brought under his control, he would become the sole candidate for Sacred Emperor.

This was exhilarating!

Utterly exhilarating!

“Roar!”

Mo Yinyue let out a furious howl. His voice boomed like a great bell, shaking the hearts of all who heard it. An unparalleled pressure radiated from his enormous body, causing the air around him to surge violently beneath its weight.
