"No one would be willing to beco the one assisting in burning essence blood?" Another Upper Immortal Divine Venerable's eyes glead coldly. "With us here, do they really think they get to decide whether they're willing or not!"
"Chi Wu, are you sure your 'Ninety-Nine Blood Burning Great Formation' will have greater divine might?"
The Upper Immortal Divine Venerable who proposed the idea of the 'Ninety-Nine Blood Burning Great Formation' was nad Chi Wu.
He nodded and said, "'Ninety-Nine Blood Burning Great Formation' is the strongest Forbidden Skill I've cultivated. As long as soone cooperates, once it's fully activated, its combat power can sweep across Immortal Divine Venerables, and even reach the sovereign-level combat power tier without an issue."
"Good!" Hearing this statent, the other Upper Immortal Divine Venerables imdiately made their decision: "Whether this thod works or not, we must give it a try."
"As for the candidates, Chi Wu, you will pick the most suitable ones. With us six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables present, I'd like to see who dares rebel!"
"The chosen ones—so what if their realms fall? Once we obtain the Divine Object, we can compensate them with sothing. If anyone dares fight back, don't bla us for being rciless!"
Anyone capable of reaching the Upper Immortal Divine Venerable Realm is undoubtedly decisive in their intentions.
Faced with the allure of imnse benefits, they had no qualms sacrificing the essence blood of others.
After concluding their discussion, the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables stood up and cast their eyes over the gathered crowd of 2,800 recruited Martial Artists.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
When the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables suddenly fixed their gaze upon them, the recruited Martial Artists present imdiately felt a chill in their hearts.
They understood that the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables were about to make an announcent.
At this mont, one of the four Upper Immortal Divine Venerables who had arrived first, the one who had previously scorned Kuang ng and company, stepped forward and addressed the crowd: "Everyone, listen up. We have a formation that requires so of you to cooperate."
"All those selected by Chi Wu, step forward!"
The Upper Immortal Divine Venerable nad Chi Wu also stepped forward at this point, surveying the crowd. "My formation requires not just our Immortal Divine Venerables to work together but also eighty-one auxiliary Martial Artists for support."
"I won't hide this from you. While the primary offensive power of this formation cos from the Immortal Divine Venerables and will not harm us, the eighty-one auxiliary Martial Artists will need to burn essence blood during the process to amplify the formation's might, which will result in so damage."
"Burning essence blood may cause a slight drop of one or two minor levels in your realm, or in the worst cases, the loss of one or two major levels."
Hua!
Upon hearing Chi Wu's explanation, countless Martial Artists in the crowd instantly went pale.
Becoming an auxiliary Martial Artist would an burning essence blood to power the formation?
And it would lead to a drop in their realm?
Of course, none of the recruited Martial Artists wanted to do such a thing.
Their realms were painstakingly cultivated over ti, and once lost, reclaiming them would require unimaginable effort—and might even harm their Life Origin!
But the recruited Martial Artists also understood that the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables had deliberated on this matter for a long ti and were unlikely to change their decision now.
Even if they did not want to be auxiliary Martial Artists, these six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables certainly wouldn't spare them!
"Don't pick ."
"There are 2,800 people here. Only eighty-one will be chosen. Don't pick !"
Many began praying inwardly in panic.
As chaos spread through the crowd and countless faces turned pale, another Upper Immortal Divine Venerable stepped forward.
His tone carried both a warning and a threat as he said, "Chi Wu has explained things clearly—it's for your own good. Regardless of who is chosen, you must follow Chi Wu's arrangents and cooperate with us!"
"Otherwise, it won't just be a simple realm drop anymore. If you ss with our attempt to obtain the treasure, we'll wipe you out completely!"
"Of course, if those chosen cooperate well, we won't mistreat you. As long as we obtain the treasure, you'll surely receive so compensation."
The words of this Upper Immortal Divine Venerable caused a heavier burden to weigh on everyone's hearts.
The recruited Martial Artists all knew that this situation was inevitable.
As for the compensation promised by the Upper Immortal Divine Venerables?
The Martial Artists knew that no amount of compensation could make up for the loss of realms.
What's more, the promised compensation was contingent on obtaining the treasure—sothing far from guaranteed. If the treasure wasn't secured and their realms dropped without recompense, it would be disastrous!
Nevertheless, even if their hearts were filled with reluctance, none of the Martial Artists dared to object.
No one wanted to be the one to stand out!
If they drew attention from the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables by speaking up, they'd be in deep trouble.
By staying silent, there was still a chance they wouldn't be chosen.
With such thoughts, the atmosphere in the crowd turned suffocating.
Among those with modest combat power, only Luo Shan and Qiudi remained unconcerned.
Both knew that with Ye Chen present, even if he didn't protect the others, their small squad would be entirely safe.
To Luo Shan and Qiudi, Ye Chen was far stronger than these six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables!
Not to ntion six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables—even when facing hundreds of Upper Immortal Divine Venerables' monster bugs, they had witnessed Ye Chen annihilate them!
"Ye Chen, how should we handle these matters raised by the Upper Immortal Divine Venerables?" Luo Shan and Qiudi couldn't hold back their curiosity and sent Ye Chen a voice transmission.
Ye Chen's eyes flashed coldly at this mont.
He hadn't expected that, unable to deal with the sky-piercing light pillar, these Upper Immortal Divine Venerables would co up with such a cruel plan.
"For a formation with no hope of success, they aim to drain the life essence blood of eighty-one auxiliary Martial Artists."
"Such ruthless thods."
Ye Chen was adamant; he wouldn't just protect his small squad.
He had already discerned that these Immortal Divine Venerables wouldn't be able to shake the sky-piercing light pillar no matter what they did. Naturally, he couldn't allow such a cruel sche to proceed, nor let the lives of eighty-one Martial Artists be wasted.
Even if they sohow succeeded, Ye Chen wouldn't sit idly by!
Ye Chen transmitted his voice to Luo Shan and Qiudi: "Relax. With here, no one will be forced to burn their essence blood."
"Let them choose first. I want to see what kind of personnel their Bloody Great Formation requires."
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Luo Shan and Qiudi were elated.
They knew Ye Chen was finally going to act.
As Luo Shan and Qiudi's excitent grew, and amidst the trepidation of countless Martial Artists, the Upper Immortal Divine Venerable "Chi Wu" began selecting the eighty-one auxiliary Martial Artists.
"My 'Ninety-Nine Blood Burning Great Formation' requires individuals from various realms. Naturally, those with robust vitality will be most suited."
Shua!
Chi Wu's gaze fell directly on one Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable.
"You, step forward!"
Being selected, that Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable's legs buckled.
Despite his fervent prayers, he ended up being the first chosen!
"Masters, please don't choose !" The Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable protested desperately.
"No nonsense!" Another Upper Immortal Divine Venerable waved his hand, instantly dragging the Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable to their side.
"You!"
"And you!"
Chi Wu didn't pause as he selected several more individuals.
This ti, Chi Wu's finger pointed at one of the three Superior Heavenly Divine Venerables standing by Luo Shan.
This Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable, who had previously mocked Ye Chen, now found himself on the receiving end of cruel fate.
Before he could complain, he was abruptly seized and placed among the selected auxiliary Martial Artists.
Following this, Chi Wu picked individuals from the Interdiate Heavenly Divine Venerable Realm, Lower Heavenly Divine Venerable Realm, and Earth Divine Venerable Realm.
Lastly, he began selecting God Kings.
"You, co here!"
Shua!
Chi Wu directly pointed at Kuang ng.
Kuang ng, whose combat power exceeded that of typical Superior Heavenly Divine Venerables despite being in the Upper God King Realm, was naturally chosen by Chi Wu.
Kuang ng had anticipated this outco; hearing his na called, his face turned pale, his mind starting to spin.
"It's over!"
"Being strong doesn't an much—I've ended up as cannon fodder for these Upper Immortal Divine Venerables!"
In despair, Kuang ng was dragged toward the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables.
At this mont, however, he suddenly heard Ye Chen's voice transmission: "Kuang ng, don't worry. You won't be hard."
"Ye Chen?" Kuang ng was stunned by the transmission, descending into the ranks of the chosen auxiliary Martial Artists all the while.
Even as he joined the others, he remained puzzled by Ye Chen's words.
"Ye Chen says I won't be hard? Could Ye Chen really have a way to save ?"
"But his combat power is only at the Interdiate Heavenly Divine Venerable level!"
After Kuang ng was selected, more God Kings followed.
Each selected God King was an exceptional cross-realm powerhouse.
As for Ye Chen, Chi Wu's selection did not extend to him—Ye Chen had concealed his true combat power, presenting only an Interdiate Heavenly Divine Venerable level. How could even Upper Immortal Divine Venerables see through his disguise?
Within a brief span, the eighty-one individuals were chosen.
Once the selection was complete, the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables nodded in anticipation, eager to attempt the 'Ninety-Nine Blood Burning Great thod.'
anwhile, the eighty-one selected Martial Artists wore expressions of utter despair.
"Now, let's begin activating the formation!"
The six Immortal Divine Venerables ignored the chosen individuals' feelings and imdiately began organizing amongst themselves.
At this mont, Ye Chen stepped out from the crowd and declared loudly, "Hold it!"
Hold it?
No one expected soone would suddenly speak up.
Instantly, with a loud shua, all eyes turned toward Ye Chen.
"God King?"
No one expected that, as the six Upper Immortal Divine Venerables prepared to activate the formation, a re God King would step forward.
"Ye Chen?"
"What does he intend to do?"
Even the small squad of a dozen around Ye Chen was completely stunned.
Among the selected individuals was the Superior Heavenly Divine Venerable who had earlier sneered at Ye Chen—now, he too was left utterly dumbfounded.
He never anticipated that Ye Chen would dare voice opposition to the Upper Immortal Divine Venerables. Even he, despite being forced into the ranks of auxiliary Martial Artists, didn't dare utter a single word!
At the sa ti, Luo Shan and Qiudi's hearts were pounding wildly.
Inwardly, they shouted in excitent: "Ye Chen! He's finally stepping up!"
