Chapter 787: Chapter 784: Protector!_1
However, it was quite apparent that with so many forces gathered here, none of them had entered the second floor. Fundantally, it was in line with what Zhu Hailong had said before – that the second layer was not sothing one could enter just by wanting to.
Yang Chen carefully scanned around and found that everyone was gathered in the middle, where there was an ancient door. On this ancient door were two lion heads, one on each side.
The door was open, and right in front of the door stood a guardian ford of stone. The guardian held a long spear in his hand, and his eyes were hollow and bloodless, evidently placed here to prevent these martial artists from entering the second layer.
Yang Chen was not surprised by this, as Zhu Hailong had ntioned it earlier. What he was curious about now was the guardian’s ability.
However, as it looked now, this guardian must be extraordinary; otherwise, the martial artists from various forces would not be idling and would have already taken action.
Curious, Yang Chen looked around and happened to spot a familiar face.
Wasn’t this familiar face none other than Yuan Yong, whom he had spared before?
He saw Yuan Yong, and Yuan Yong saw him too.
Perhaps because of Fu Qingqing’s matter, Yuan Yong’s knot was untied, and instead of resenting Yang Chen, he was grateful to him.
Thus, when he saw Yang Chen, he quickly approached with his martial artists.
This made the martial artists of the Green Lotus Sect tense up, fearing that Yuan Yong would do sothing improper.
However, Yuan Yong was honest this ti and had no other intentions. He respectfully said, “Brother Yang Chen!”
“Brother Yuan!” Yang Chen certainly wasn’t going to turn away a friendly gesture.
Judging from the situation, Yuan Yong had already let go of his grudge, so Yang Chen had nothing else to say.
Yuan Yong spoke slowly, “Brother Yang Chen, thank you for waking up and helping see Fu Qingqing’s true face. After parting with you, my mind has beco clearer in a short ti.”
“Brother Yuan enlightened himself, and I was only a supporter. It’s nothing to ntion.” Yang Chen said with a slight smile.
At this mont, Yuan Yong said straightforwardly, “Brother Yang Chen, you probably don’t have a full understanding of the situation at the second layer’s entrance, right?”
Realizing that Yuan Yong was willing to help clear his doubts, Yang Chen was stunned. He never expected that he had actually made the right move in letting Yuan Yong go.
Yuan Yong had obviously arrived much earlier than he had, so he must know much more about the guardian than Yang Chen did.
Yang Chen naturally wouldn’t be polite, “Indeed, my allies from Wood Dragon City and I just arrived here, and we don’t know much about the entrance to the second layer. I hope Brother Yuan can help us clear our doubts!”
Ming Changfeng hurriedly bowed his hand, fully expressing his sincerity.
Yuan Yong originally wanted to repay Yang Chen, and now Yang Chen asked, he imdiately laughed, “Brother Yang Chen, you must have guessed so of it by now. You’ve seen the guardian too. The purpose of this guardian is to prevent these martial artists from entering the second layer!”
“Oh? Blockade, so they can’t enter?” Yang Chen asked.
“Entering is possible, but it’s incredibly difficult. As far as I know, only more than a dozen people have entered so far!” Yuan Yong sighed.
“More than a dozen people?” Yang Chen was surprised.
This number was not very large. At least a thousand people were standing here, and among them were top geniuses from various regions. With only a dozen people entering, the odds were not high at all.
Yuan Yong nodded, “Among these dozen or so people are Wu Sheng and Han Zheng, and the others are all top geniuses, though their backgrounds are currently unclear. Even our Huangdao Sect’s records are limited, but from what can be seen now, the level of these geniuses is quite high. They should all be above the third layer of the True Martial Realm!”
Yang Chen beca contemplative.
He wasn’t in a hurry to enter the second layer, as he didn’t think there were necessarily any treasures inside. Even if there were treasures, it may not be a good thing to enter first. Later arrivals would definitely fight for them, and from Yang Chen’s perspective, it was best to let things take their course.
He asked, “How powerful is this guardian?”
“No one can estimate that at the mont. This guardian seems to grow stronger with stronger opponents. The more powerful the opponent, the more powerful he becos.” Yuan Yong sighed.
“So there’s no way to defeat him?” Ming Changfeng couldn’t help but ask.
“That should be impossible.” Yuan Yong smiled bitterly, “Soone just tried to do that, intending to destroy the guardian directly. However, the end result was quite clear – the guardian was fine, while the person nearly killed himself from exhaustion. He had consud more than half of his True Qi, so trying to fight the guardian is aningless. Most of the geniuses chose to find a way to bypass the guardian and enter.”
“Even so, it’s as difficult as ascending to the sky, and it’s challenging to achieve. The guardian’s purpose seems to be to hinder people from entering the second layer. More than 200 people have tried one after another, but only a dozen or so people have succeeded!”
Yang Chen nodded, acknowledging that geniuses from various forces trying to enter the second layer would be arriving one after another.
“Does that an we can’t attack this guardian together?” Yang Chen asked.
“No, so people thought of that at the beginning. An entire force attacked together, but the guardian beca furious then. As he stabbed out with his spear, its power was astonishing. It directly killed that force’s number one genius along with more than a dozen disciples. So afterward, the geniuses all ca alone, not daring to involve others. It seems that as long as there are more people, the guardian will imdiately counterattack.” Yuan Yong said before taking a deep breath, clearly more frightened than anything by the scene earlier.
Although Yang Chen hadn’t seen the scene, he knew the guardian going berserk must be far from ordinary.
Yuan Yong sighed, “It’s better not to ss with this guardian if it can be avoided. Fortunately, as long as we follow the rules, the guardian won’t go berserk.”
As the leaders of their respective forces, Yang Chen and Ming Changfeng had more or less learned about the current rules of the entrance to the second layer.
Now, Yang Chen was keenly watching the entrance to the second layer where soone was attempting the challenge.
This person was a thirty-sothing genius, exuding an astonishing aura. He was a genius at the second level of the True Martial Realm, and it was unclear where he ca from.
In an instant, he tried to break into the second layer, but the very mont he attempted it, the guardian struck!

After striving to complete my ten updates today with tears in my eyes, I realized that there was another generous donation of ten thousand book coins. I cried even more, as I naively thought that I had completed my task, but I was mistaken.
However, a promise must be fulfilled.
Tomorrow, I will try my best to update ten chapters. If I don’t manage to do so, I will make up for them in the future.
