Remember in one second 【↘→】, providing you with exciting novel reading. Among the first sequence of the hundred city lords, Qi Shilong's originally calm eyes changed the moment the silver and blue light columns shot up into the sky.
"Yuan Yang and Tian Bai, these two are among the top ten strongest in the entire history of the hundred main cities in the Eastern Land. Their legacies have finally come to light."
Zhao Wujie, the city lord of Tianfeng Main City, who stood shoulder to shoulder with Qi Shilong, also had a slight change in his expression at this moment. Looking at the two light columns shooting up into the sky, he was lost in thought.
However, what shocked him even more was the battle situation of the three from Longguang Main City that he had seen earlier on the giant screen. Lin Yingluo and Sima Ao's performances were within his expectations, but the young man who seemed to only have reached the mid-stage of the Heroic Soul Realm actually possessed the strength to defeat the peak mid-stage of the Refined Soul Realm. Watching the six people led by Ye Wuque, who had just upgraded the hundred city jade seal to purple, Zhao Wujie felt a sense of amazement towards this young man named Ye Wuque.
Throughout the entire Hundred Yuan World, among all the geniuses, only two could fight across stages, defeating all their opponents and upgrading the white hundred city jade seal to purple. One was the well-known sword genius Feng Cai Chen, and the other was this previously unknown but suddenly explosive Ye Wuque.
This scene also caught the attention of many other city lords of the hundred main cities, making them quietly remember the Ye Wuque from Longguang Main City.
Wei Xiong stood in the air, expressionless, his gaze fixed on the giant screen. Over the past two days and nights, he had remembered all the promising talents in this year's Hundred City Battle. However, as the second city lord of the first main city, his standards were extremely high. He still needed to thoroughly sift out the true geniuses in the next two trials, and the legacies of Tian Bai and Yuan Yang were the next trial.
The geniuses participating in the Hundred City Battle naturally knew what the two light columns shooting up into the sky represented: the legacies of the strong. The allure of such legacies to these geniuses was immense, and everyone knew what would happen next.
The exciting show was just beginning.
"Feng Cai Chen, Ye Wuque, two young men at the mid-stage of the Heroic Soul Realm can fight across stages, and one has obtained the Tian Bai Order, the other the Yuan Yang Order. Their luck is not bad. However, with their current strength, it is still too difficult for them to obtain the final legacy. After all, this year's Hundred City Battle is particularly special."
Despite some admiration for Feng Cai Chen and Ye Wuque in his heart, Wei Xiong did not have high hopes for them.
"The Tian Bai Order and the Yuan Yang Order each have three. Only when all are collected can the two legacies truly be activated. I wonder if any of the six who obtained the orders can discover the true secrets hidden within..."
No one knew the many thoughts that flashed through Wei Xiong's mind. The attention of everyone on the white jade platform was almost entirely drawn to the two light columns shooting up into the sky.
The young geniuses who had been eliminated also temporarily forgot the impact of their failure. Among those who had just been teleported out of the Hundred Yuan World, six figures with scorched bodies still had a hint of confusion and madness on their faces. The leader was Zheng Dao, whose eyes were lifeless.
...
"What do these two light columns mean? Could it be that..."
The six people, including Ye Wuque, focused their attention on the two suddenly appearing light columns. A thought flashed through Lin Yingluo's mind, and she looked at Ye Wuque, who stood at the front of the group, and spoke.
Mo Honglian also seemed to have thought of something and looked at Ye Wuque.
Holding the Yuan Yang Order, which was continuously heating up, Ye Wuque's heart was clear.
"Do you remember the Yuan Yang Order and the Yuan Yang Legacy I told you about?"
Facing the five people, Ye Wuque spoke softly.
"Oh? Brother Wuque, do you mean that..."
Mo Honglian's eyes flickered.
Turning around, Ye Wuque's eyes were like lightning, and he threw the Yuan Yang Order to Mo Honglian.
Mo Honglian extended her delicate hand to catch the silver ancient token, immediately feeling the heat from it. She then threw it to Lin Yingluo, and it went around the five people before returning to Ye Wuque.
"It seems this is a sign of the legacy being about to open, and the silver light column should represent the Yuan Yang Legacy. So, does the blue light column represent another legacy?"
Looking at the two light columns shooting up into the sky, Mo Honglian spoke her thoughts.
"Yes, Sister Mo, you are right. But with our current abilities, we can only choose one."
The other five people nodded in agreement. Although the six of them had successfully defeated many opponents and upgraded their hundred city jade seals to purple, meeting the requirements of the first stage of the Hundred City Battle, this did not mean that their alliance had the power to dominate the Hundred Yuan World.
Because so far, Ye Wuque knew he had not encountered any of the young strong figures he had remembered on the white jade platform.
"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Brother Wuque, with the Yuan Yang Order in your hand, you are naturally closer to the Yuan Yang Legacy. We should choose the Yuan Yang Legacy."
Sima Ao nodded slightly and spoke solemnly.
"Prince Sima is right. Greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant. We should act within our means. The Yuan Yang Legacy is our best choice."
Seeing that the five people's thoughts aligned with his, Ye Wuque smiled slightly, looked at the silver light column shooting up into the sky, and felt the heat from the Yuan Yang Order in his hand, his eyes filled with fervor and anticipation!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"
The six figures moved swiftly, their yuan power surging, heading towards the silver light column representing the Yuan Yang Legacy.
...
"Chirp"
In a distant place from Ye Wuque and the others, the sound of a sword hum faintly echoed. Six figures rapidly moved along a rugged path, their target being the blue light column shooting up into the sky.
The leader, with clear and bright eyes and a graceful demeanor, had a long sword on his back, his clothes fluttering in the wind, like a bright sun in the sky. It was Feng Cai Chen, and in his hand was a blue circular token, exquisitely crafted.
...
"Nalan Yan, which one should we choose?"
At the edge of a purple bamboo forest, a young man holding a purple hundred city jade seal, who seemed somewhat quiet and reserved, looked at the long-legged woman in front of him, dressed in a white and green tight-fitting martial skirt, and spoke solemnly.
"I like blue, so let's go to the blue one. What do you think?"
Another young man with a lively expression looked at the blue light column in the distance, his eyes filled with longing.
The long-legged woman, with a beautiful face that exuded a sense of strength, thought for a moment, then her eyes flickered, and she said softly, "Let's go to the silver light column."
...
"Hehe... My treasure finally has a chance to drink fresh cultivator blood again..."
In a very dark and damp cave, a man in strange attire looked excitedly at the black shadow wrapped around his arm, his laughter eerie.
The two other young men, dressed similarly and with strange appearances, standing beside him, stared at the silver and blue light columns shooting up outside the cave.
"Big Brother, Third Brother can hardly suppress himself... He needs to drink fresh blood in time."
"...Let's go to the blue light column."
...
"Purple hundred city jade seal? Humph! Just a little more, give me your hundred city jade seal!"
"Bang"
A right fist like fire, knocked back the figure standing beside him, who was caught off guard. The latter was hit in the chest, spewing blood, and fell unconscious, which was Chen Yang.
Knocking Chen Yang unconscious with one punch, Yue Chengfeng absorbed Chen Yang's deep white hundred city jade seal, and his own hundred city jade seal, which was a deep green, finally turned purple.
Yue Chengfeng's theft of Chen Yang's hundred city jade seal was ignored by Zhou Huo, who looked indifferently at the silver and blue light columns in the distance and then moved towards a direction.
"Scum! Pray you choose a different place, so you can live a little longer..."
"Whoosh"
Red yuan power surged, and Yue Chengfeng moved quickly, following Zhou Huo and another person, heading towards the area where the silver light column was located.
...
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"
The entire Hundred Yuan World seemed to slowly come to a boil. Figures moved in groups, converging from all directions towards the area where the two light columns were located.
Strong waves of power spread out. Those who had survived in the Hundred Yuan World until now were all powerful cultivators with strong combat abilities. Each had their own unique skills, and some might have had fortuitous encounters.
Two hours later, the sun was high in the sky, and it was noon.
"Roar"
A dark dragon's roar echoed in the four directions. To prevent any accidents, Ye Wuque, Lin Yingluo, and Sima Ao formed the Dragon Assault Formation again, followed closely by the Mo sisters, moving swiftly on the path.
After two hours of continuous rushing, Ye Wuque and the others were getting closer to the silver light column.
Inside the dragon-shaped light barrier, Ye Wuque's eyes looked at the silver light column still some distance away, his gaze filled with amazement!
The closer they got to the silver light column, the more Ye Wuque could feel a vast and powerful aura. This aura surged through the heavens and earth, pressing down on all sides, and the waves of power it emitted reminded Ye Wuque of the waves of power he had felt from the second city lord of the first main city, Wei Xiong, on the white jade platform, and it was even stronger!
"The Yuan Yang Order is getting hotter, it seems we are not far away."
With a soft murmur, Ye Wuque said no more, his holy path battle qi circulating, the dragon-shaped light barrier trembling, and its speed increased by three times. The Mo sisters, following closely behind, also increased their speed by three times.
After about half an hour, Ye Wuque's expression suddenly changed, and he said, "Someone, be careful."
With Ye Wuque's words, Lin Yingluo and Sima Ao immediately surged with yuan power, ready to activate the Dragon Assault Formation at any time, and Mo Honglian, Mo Qingye, and Mo Baiou nodded slightly, their yuan power continuously vibrating.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
This was a flat road. Just as Ye Wuque and the others were on high alert, six figures suddenly appeared from the east, each with a deep silver soul moon pulsing behind them. The leader was a thin, flat-headed man who also noticed Ye Wuque and the others, who were several dozen yards away.
"Watch out... There are people ahead!"
The flat-headed man had an extremely ordinary face, but his eyes shone with a sharp light, revealing his extraordinary nature.
Ye Wuque looked at the flat-headed youth from a distance, and the flat-headed youth also looked up, then both withdrew their gazes.
"Let's go, these six won't attack us in this situation."
Withdrawing his gaze, Ye Wuque surged with yuan power, the dragon-shaped light barrier brightened again, and he moved swiftly towards the silver light column.
The flat-headed youth's expression changed, and he muttered to himself, "Interesting, a worthy opponent to pay attention to."
He then called to the five people behind him and headed towards the silver light column from another direction.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Just as Ye Wuque and the others were less than a thousand yards away from the silver light column, they heard the sound of martial robes cutting through the air from all directions. Dozens of figures, forming alliances, appeared one after another, each with a powerful aura and waves of power spreading out.
They stood in groups around the silver light column, their gazes constantly scanning the surroundings, all on high alert and searching.
"It seems that almost half of the remaining people in the Hundred Yuan World are here."
Inside the dragon-shaped light barrier, Lin Yingluo looked at the dozens of figures appearing one after another, her gaze filled with gravity.
"Nobody can resist the allure of a legacy left by a powerful cultivator. Moreover, those who have not yet upgraded their hundred city jade seals to purple are trying to make a final push. We need to be cautious and careful."
Putting the Yuan Yang Order back into his storage ring, Ye Wuque's voice quietly echoed in the ears of the other five, and he then disbanded the Dragon Assault Formation.
Although they were still about eight or nine hundred yards away from the silver light column, Ye Wuque's heart still trembled when he looked up at it from a distance!
