The mountain was not a mountain and the water was not water.
The highest realm of martial arts was none other than being illusory!
From the outside, a mysterious place looked like a bubble that would burst with a single poke.
However, there were a few shocking experts gathered here.
They sat on the green stones and looked at the water screen in the void with varying expressions.
"This guy is in trouble. Should we make a move?" Perfected Lord Fire Demon was the first to lose his cool. He looked around at the other old men and asked.
"Although he passed the Bloodline King's test and became one of the candidates, it doesn't mean that we don't have to do anything.
If anything happens, we won't be able to bear the consequences, "the disheveled old man said.
"That's right. I agree with the disheveled old man. Let's wait and see."
"But …"
The Perfected Lord Fire Demon was a little anxious. If Fang Chen died, what would happen to the descendants of his Flame Tribe?
That was the only descendant with a fire seed. Once he died, it would be a huge loss.
"Perfected Lord Fire Demon, don't be anxious. Things might change."
The disheveled old man glanced at the Perfected Lord Fire Demon and comforted, "The Bloodline King must be paying attention to this matter. What can a mere ruler of the Despair Continent do?"
Despair Continent, Dragon City.
Everyone's gaze was on the Hand of Despair.
Although he did not speak, he formed a strong aura just by standing there.
Furthermore, his attitude was clear. He wanted Fang Chen to choose one of the two.
He was the ruler of the Despair Continent and no one could go against his will.
The Dragon Tamer knew the temper of the Hand of Despair and reprimanded Fang Chen continuously. He even scolded the mayor of Tianshu Yuan who spoke up for the latter.
Fang Chen shrugged helplessly.
The Dragon Tamer and the Hand of Despair were forcing him to leave with them.
This confirmed his guess that they must have some unspeakable secret.
"I can't go with them."
He had too many secrets. If the Hand of Despair were to discover them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, if he rejected them in front of everyone, the Hand of Despair would definitely attack in anger.
Just as Fang Chen was feeling conflicted and hesitant, the clear sky suddenly darkened.
The pitch-black clouds covered the entire sky, and thunder rumbled from the sky.
Many thick lightning dragons swam in the dark clouds, and an oppressive aura spread out.
Everyone was shocked. What was going on?
The Hand of Despair raised his head and looked at the sky indifferently.
"Stop acting all mysterious."
The Hand of Despair said in disdain. With a wave of his sleeve, a vast amount of energy burst out and struck one of the lightning dragons.
Crack!
The lightning dragon shattered, and the dark clouds dispersed.
"Despair."
In the sky, an aged voice slowly sounded.
"For my sake, how about letting this junior go?"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Who was it that dared to negotiate with the Hand of Despair?
The distressed chief of Tianshu Yuan was extremely excited when he saw this.
Now that the Old Ancestor had appeared, the Hand of Despair probably wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
"What?
You've been holed up in Tianshu Yuan all these years. Are you finally willing to come out? "
The Hand of Despair said disdainfully with a touch of indifference on his face.
Only then did everyone realize that the mysterious powerhouse hiding in the sky was actually the Old Ancestor of Tianshu Yuan.
"The legend is true. There is an unparalleled powerhouse in Tianshu Yuan."
"It seems that Tianshu Yuan values Tianshu a lot. Even the Old Ancestor who hasn't appeared for a long time has appeared."
"This is going to be a good show. The Old Ancestor of Tianshu Yuan is a powerhouse on the same level as the Hand of Despair."
No one had expected that a confrontation between two powerhouses would occur just because of Tianshu.
The Patriarch of the Fu Family, the Pavilion Master of the Dark Wind Pavilion, and Ancient God Xi Long looked at the sky with burning eyes.
The dark clouds dissipated, and a phantom appeared in the sky.
"Despair, I don't want to be your enemy," the phantom said.
"Then don't ruin my business."
With that, the Hand of Despair waved his sleeve, and a vast amount of energy condensed into a powerful arrow and shot out.
Whoosh!
The powerful arrow pierced the phantom.
"Haha."
The phantom chuckled. "You want to force me to retreat with this little trick?"
In an instant, the phantom and the Hand of Despair fought fiercely. A powerful light curtain covered the ground in the sky, blocking everyone's eyes.
"Master is the strongest."
The Dragon Controller clenched his fists, and his blood boiled.
Fang Chen stared blankly at this scene, somewhat in disbelief.
Boom!
A deafening sound reverberated through the sky.
The whole ground seemed to be shaking. The light curtain dissipated, and the Hand of Despair reappeared.
He stared at the phantom in the sky. "This time, I'll give you face."
After that, the Hand of Despair disappeared. The Dragon Controller was stunned for a moment, but he also disappeared.
"Let's go."
The phantom sent a message to the Patriarch of Tianshu Yuan, and the latter quickly left Xi Long City with the disciples of Tianshu Yuan.
The powerful pressure above Xi Long City didn't dissipate for a long time.
Everyone's hearts trembled as they were dumbfounded.
…
In front of the thatched hut on Despair Peak.
"Master …"
The Dragon Controller asked in a low voice, "That old bastard of Tianshu Yuan is no match for you. Why …"
The Hand of Despair shook his head gently. His dark eyes flashed with a terrifying light.
"Even a dog will jump over a wall when it's desperate, let alone a man.
That old bastard is determined to protect Tianshu. If I force my hand, I'll definitely suffer a crazy counterattack. "
The Hand of Despair said, "Although I'm not afraid of him, if he fights me to the death, I'll definitely be injured. The loss outweighs the gain."
"Then …"
"It doesn't matter. That old bastard is already injured. This time, he was forced by me to use his full strength.
His old injuries have relapsed, and he won't be able to hold on for long, "the Hand of Despair said coldly.
The Dragon Controller nodded. "After that old bastard is dead, I'll go and uproot Tianshu Yuan."
When Tianshu Yuan and the Hand of Despair went against each other, there was no need for them to exist.
Tianshu Yuan, Back Mountain Forbidden Area.
"This time, I've offended the Hand of Despair. He won't let it go."
The Chief of Tianshu Yuan thought to himself. He hurriedly took Fang Chen to the Back Mountain Forbidden Area, where the Ancestor was cultivating in seclusion.
"Ancestor."
As soon as the voice fell, the branches wrapped around the entrance of the cave all dispersed. With a creak, the cave opened, and light shone in all directions.
"Go in."
The Chief of Tianshu Yuan said and stepped into the cave. Fang Chen followed.
The cave was very simple. At first glance, there was only a thin old man sitting cross-legged on the ground. His body was shining with a dazzling light.
"Was he the one who blocked the Hand of Despair?" Fang Chen murmured.
The thin old man didn't open his eyes. He opened his mouth and spoke faintly.
"The strength of the Hand of Despair is much stronger than I thought.
This time, my old injuries have relapsed. If he comes again, I won't be able to resist. "The thin old man said directly," So, the plan has been launched in advance. "
"Yes, Ancestor."
The Chief of Tianshu Yuan turned to look at Fang Chen and explained the matter of the Dead Star Boundary.
"This is a serious matter. In order to prevent the Hand of Despair from attacking, we are preparing to send you into the Dead Star Boundary," the Chief of Tianshu Yuan said.
"Dead Star Boundary?"
Fang Chen was a little surprised.
"You have been to the Bloodline Boundary, so you should have some understanding of boundaries.
The Dead Star Boundary is a kind of boundary, but it is much stronger than the Bloodline Boundary. "
The Chief of Tianshu Yuan said, "The Dead Star Boundary is very special. This is the heaven of the Ancient Gods. Anyone who enters the Dead Star Boundary is an Ancient God warrior.
Here, the Ancient Gods can obtain the strongest tempering. "
"The Dead Star Boundary doesn't accept people easily, but the Dead Star Boundary Master once owed the Ancestor a favor. The Ancestor is prepared to use this favor to exchange for a spot to enter the Dead Star Boundary for you."
At first, Fang Chen didn't feel anything. But when he heard that Gu Tianhua of the Gu Family and Lin Qian of the Lin Family had also entered the Dead Star Boundary and obtained the title of Dead Star, his heart began to move.
"Even with the strength of the Hand of Despair, it is impossible for them to break into the Dead Star Boundary. You can enter it and cultivate safely.
But it will be difficult to come out unless you obtain the title of Dead Star, "the Chief of Tianshu Yuan said.
"Time is a little tight. I won't explain the details of the Dead Star Boundary to you. Let's begin now."
Any second could bring about unbearable consequences.
Fang Chen was the hope of Tianshu Yuan's future. As long as he was alive, Tianshu Yuan would continue to exist.
