Chapter 450: 447: The Deep Meaning of Tiandu Emperor_1

In the blink of an eye, the power of the Volcano Spirit Talisman was completely unleashed, and the violent storm accompanied by the wolf smoke gradually turned into nothingness.

Immediately after, five Icefield Demon Elephants were hit—three fell to the ground, while the other two were barely alive, their bodies covered in gashes. They had been heavily injured by the Volcano Spirit Talisman.

“There are still two left?!” Yang Chen narrowed his eyes, admiring the defensive power of the Icefield Demon Elephants.

The remaining two Icefield Demon Elephants, after surviving the strike, glared at Yang Chen with angry eyes. Raising their huge tusks, they charged directly at him.

Although the two Icefield Demon Elephants were furious, they were covered in wounds and could not hold on for much longer. Yang Chen raised his hand, and the power of Heavenly Thunder Origin instantly transformed into the power of Thunderbolts, grinding and eliminating the creatures. The two Icefield Demon Elephants, already battered and defenseless, were naturally unable to withstand Yang Chen’s attack and perished.

All five Icefield Demon Elephants were annihilated!

The surroundings of Yang Chen vanished as well.

At the same time, the geniuses in the secret chamber were still alternately attempting to get through the Ten Despair Challenges.

This had already been countless rounds, but most of the geniuses seemed somewhat discouraged. Their enthusiasm for attempting the Ten Despair Challenges had faded since the beginning.

“Yang Chen was the first to pass the first five levels and obtain the Emperor’s Treasure left behind by the Great Emperor. If we continue to try, and the treasures are claimed by others, what’s the point of risking our lives in the Ten Despair Challenges?”

“That’s right. It’s totally unfair. Instead of this, I’d rather not try.”

Sour grapes were everywhere, as many geniuses who couldn’t reach the fifth level were stirring the pot with whispers and criticism.

“That’s right, with Yang Chen taking away all the Emperor’s Treasures, what’s the point of us trying to break through the levels?”

“Even if we pass the fifth level, so what?”

Wave after wave of geniuses alternated, but only Yang Chen had passed the fifth level.

The Tiandu Emperor’s voice suddenly rang out: “Hmph, you little ones sure are interesting. To tell you the truth, the treasure and inheritance left by me, the Emperor, are not just one. Even if Yang Chen has passed the fifth level, the treasure and inheritance he obtained are limited. If you’re discouraged, you can completely give up; whether one less or one more of you, it makes no difference to me.”

“Also, although Yang Chen has passed the fifth level, he hasn’t entered the second floor to obtain the treasure and inheritance left. Hehe, this kid is quite confident though. He has already passed the sixth level and entered the seventh level.”

When these words dropped, the surrounding geniuses were shocked.

“What? Yang Chen has passed the sixth level and entered the seventh?”

“This…”

“This kid is too monstrous.”

Many geniuses couldn’t believe it.

Jiang Caiying sat there, also gasping in disbelief.

For her, the fifth level was already an insurmountable challenge. Yet, Yang Chen was better off—he not only passed the fifth level but also entered the sixth, and it didn’t even stop him.

Who exactly is this child’s master?

Jiang Caiying took a deep breath, deciding to report Yang Chen’s name to her master. Perhaps her master would know who this Yang Chen was.

“Yang Chen is really amazing, but no matter what, given his arrogance and confidence in continuing without obtaining the Emperor’s Treasure and inheritance first, we still have a chance.”

“Yeah, we still have many opportunities. Let’s continue.”

The geniuses were discussing this nonstop, and once again, they were focused on moving forward.

However, at this moment, the scoffing voice of the Tiandu Emperor suddenly rang out: “So, do you all think you can just enter my Ten Despair Challenges whenever you please? It seems you’ve got something wrong. As the Emperor, I don’t believe I have any obligation to reward you with my treasures while you attempt my challenges.”

The voice of the Tiandu Emperor suddenly turned cold.

As soon as his words fell, all the geniuses in the secret chamber felt a terrifying chill.

“Hehe, do you still think that I invited you in here because I needed your presence? To tell you the truth, those who don’t want to attempt the challenges can leave. My Ten Despair Challenges are life-threatening, and I’ve saved your lives when you were in danger. If you’re not satisfied, you can just leave. Did you truly believe I have a good temper?”

With the fall of the Tiandu Emperor’s words, several beams of light appeared.

One, two, three, several young people were enveloped by these beams.

These young people happened to be the geniuses who had just been unsatisfied with the rules set by the Tiandu Emperor.

However, in an instant, these geniuses vanished within the secret chamber, their whereabouts unknown.

The Tiandu Emperor had no intention of explaining anything, which terrified the remaining geniuses while also filling them with awe at his power. Yes, the Tiandu Emperor had no obligation to do any of this—why were they dissatisfied with him?

At this time, Yang Chen had also figured out the situation and environment of the seventh level.

A vast wasteland, littered with corpses, appeared like a battlefield. Yang Chen walked through this wasteland, finally stopping.

In front of him, a strong wind raged, and wolf smoke swirled. Six armored, terrifying-looking Bull-headed War Generals stood, each holding a long spear in their hands and bearing blood-red eyes, and dried, shriveled mouths.

“These are Bull-headed War Generals—the Barbaric Bull Monsters are the most brutal and warlike race in the entire Demon Race. And Bull-headed War Generals are the lowest class among the Barbaric Bull Monsters. Yang Chen, I admit, you’re very talented. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to defeat a single Bull-headed War General. But you’re a genius.”

“If you cannot defeat even six Bull-headed War Generals, it would be very disappointing to me. There are many demonic beasts more powerful than Bull-headed War Generals in the Demon Race—many more…”

“I hope that your generation will be stronger than ours!”

Yang Chen listened to the words of the Tiandu Emperor, not knowing the true intentions behind his creation of this inheritance. However, he could feel that there was more to the Tiandu Emperor’s challenges than simply selecting an inheritor.

The Tiandu Emperor’s words always conveyed his expectations for future generations, but what were those expectations? The hope that the future generations could perfectly resist the Demon Race? The hope that the future generations could surpass their predecessors!!
