"An ancient stone statue? Damn, this Origin Pool is also dangerous." Those retreating God Kings cursed angrily.
Luo Bing was also shaken.
She almost had to take action.
"Husband, how did you discover the problem?" Luo Bing asked.
"I didn’t detect anything, just intuition." Xu Nian shook his head in response.
He hadn’t had the chance to use the Divine Eye earlier, so he didn’t know about the hidden danger.
He just felt that the three Sovereigns before them hadn’t acted, so there must be something odd.
In fact, these three Sovereigns didn’t know the hidden danger either, only having concerns in their hearts.
No one expected there to truly be hidden killing intent.
"This ancient stone statue at least has the strength of a Quasi-God Emperor. Even if a Divine Sovereign rushed through just now, the outcome would have been dire," a God King expert remarked.
Everyone else was filled with lingering fear.
If they had moved faster earlier, they would be the ones dead now.
"This Black Emperor Arena is indeed extremely perilous. Who knows what Black Emperor’s true purpose for doing this is," someone commented discontentedly.
Everyone fell silent.
Xu Nian, however, fixed his gaze on the Black Emperor’s Illusion in front.
"Hmm, this chess game seems a bit strange," Xu Nian said in surprise.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the chess game in front of the Black Emperor.
They hadn’t paid much attention before.
Taking a closer look now, they naturally discovered the problem.
"This is no ordinary chess game; it’s a formation, containing the Heavenly Destiny Dao’s formation," someone said.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the chess game.
Each of them showed expressions of surprise.
Is it really a formation?
"It is indeed a formation, and an extremely mystical one at that, even more terrifying than an ordinary God Emperor-level formation," Xu Nian said.
"More terrifying than a God Emperor-level formation?" everyone was utterly amazed.
Such a terrifying formation would definitely be a priceless treasure, right?
Just as Xu Nian spoke these words, the Black Emperor, who had seemed unresponsive to everyone, suddenly looked up at Xu Nian.
This look caused Xu Nian to feel as if an endless giant mountain was pressing down on him.
"Greetings, Black Emperor!" Xu Nian immediately saluted.
"Greetings, Black Emperor!" The people behind Xu Nian followed suit.
This Black Emperor was alive, definitely not a simple projection.
At least, it was akin to the existence of a Soul Mark.
In the face of such a level, even a Soul Mark, no one dared to act rashly.
"You are quite remarkable, being able to see the mystical nature of the formation on my chessboard. It seems you also understand formations," the Black Emperor looked at Xu Nian and smiled.
"Black Emperor, you flatter me. I only know a little about formations, far from matching your expertise in formations, Your Excellency," Xu Nian replied.
He wasn’t being modest but was speaking the truth.
Being able to create such a formation, the Black Emperor’s comprehension of formations was already exceptionally high.
The Black Emperor smiled and nodded: "This formation is the culmination of my lifetime of effort, named Qian Kun. Even if the Ten Great God Emperors entered my formation, it would be hard for them to come out."
Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished.
A formation that can trap the Ten Great God Emperors, the value of this chessboard is surely no less than that of a chaotic treasure.
"I know your purpose in coming here is nothing more than the World Space of the World Tree, the World Fruit, and this Origin Pool," the Black Emperor said with a smile, no longer pretending not to hear anything, but looking at everyone.
"Your Excellency, Black Emperor, please grant us fortune," a God King stepped forward and said.
"Grant you? Why should I grant you?" the Black Emperor chuckled and asked in return.
The God King was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
Indeed, why should the Black Emperor give his treasures to them?
"However, if you wish to obtain these opportunities, it’s not impossible. As long as any of you can enter the formation and successfully break out, you can obtain all these resources," the Black Emperor said with a smile.
"Enter the formation? This is a formation that can trap the Ten Great God Emperors. How can we possibly break it?" a God King Peak powerhouse immediately spoke.
"That’s not my concern. As long as you don’t enter the formation, these opportunities have nothing to do with you. Only those who can come out alive from the formation can obtain the opportunities. This is the rule I set," the Black Emperor said with a smile.
Everyone’s faces turned extremely grim.
A top-tier God Emperor-level formation, entering it means almost certain death.
There is virtually no way to survive going in.
Xu Nian was also frowning deeply, never expecting the Black Emperor’s trial to be so ruthless.
"I’m not going in; I give up!" a God King Peak expert from Illusion Sound Palace immediately chose to give up.
However, the next moment, he was struck by a terrifying thunderbolt, and his entire body turned to ash.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"Giving up is a dead end," the Black Emperor said with a smile.
Upon hearing these words, everyone was rendered speechless.
In other words, there was only one path left in front of them.
That is to enter the formation.
Entering the formation might offer a glimmer of hope, but not entering the formation leads only to a dead end.
"Husband, what should we do?" Luo Bing asked Xu Nian via voice transmission.
"Right now, the only way forward is to enter the formation. Since it’s a formation, it has flaws, and breaking the formation doesn’t necessarily require the strength of a God Emperor," Xu Nian said.
Luo Bing nodded: "I trust you, Husband. I’ll do whatever you ask."
"Rest assured, I’ll definitely make sure you leave alive," Xu Nian said with determination in his eyes.
"Humph, you’re just a murderous devil, clearly toying with us. I won’t let you manipulate me!" a God King Peak expert at the Origin Ninth Level immediately erupted, directly attacking the Black Emperor.
Everyone shook their heads.
Courting death?
Sure enough, the next moment, before the God King Peak expert could get close to the Black Emperor, a giant claw emerged from the void, directly seizing him and dragging him into the Dark Abyss.
Seeing this scene, everyone sighed.
Knowing the Black Emperor’s cruelty, yet daring to disrespect him, isn’t that courting death?
"I haven’t finished speaking. If someone truly can break through my formation, not only will they own these opportunities, but I’ll also give them an even greater opportunity," the Black Emperor said with a smile.
A greater opportunity?
An opportunity greater than the World Fruit?
What kind of opportunity could surpass the World Fruit?
Everyone was both surprised and immensely excited.
People die for wealth as birds die for food; it might be worth giving it a try. If it succeeds, it might be a once-in-a-lifetime chance to defy fate.
Xu Nian was also extremely surprised, unable to guess what the Black Emperor referred to as an even greater opportunity.
Still, there was a hint of anticipation in his heart.
Of course, his main interest was in seeing just how formidable the top-tier formation mentioned by the Black Emperor truly was.
"Now that I’ve said my piece, it’s up to you to choose," the Black Emperor said with a smile.
"We are willing to try!" the three Sovereigns exchanged glances and said.
"It’s simple, just step forward and place a piece on the chessboard to enter the formation!" the Black Emperor said with a smile.
