Chapter 126: Two Consecutive Victories

There were not a few strong individuals among the evil gods and the church.

Undoubtedly, the top geniuses from foreign stars and those who had long settled at the peak of the sixth rank were Gune's targets.

Kill as many as possible.

After all, the main purpose this time was to prevent those from the evil gods and the church from obtaining the Divine Crown.

If they could kill them all first, that would naturally be best.

With everyone dead, they couldn't get their hands on anything.

After some private discussion between the two sides,

it seemed they had already reached a general decision.

On the side of the evil gods and the church, an old man in a silver robe at the forefront spoke loudly.

“Osman, I heard that your Transcendent Association has many geniuses, and recently even produced a super spellcaster. Do you have the guts for a contest?”

“Heh... Louis, just now you yourselves wanted to enter by offering your lives, and now you're asking us if we have the guts for a contest?” From the forefront of the Transcendent Association, an old man in a black shadow cloak robe said with a slightly hoarse voice and a very steady tone, chuckling lightly.

“So you're saying you're unwilling to compete?”

Louis sneered.

“In that case, we'll just send our own strong ones in. Win or lose, we go in first.”

“It's not that we can't compete,” the old man Osman said slowly.

“For this one, and the next three, your people go first, then we go. Otherwise, we'll just stall here slowly.”

Stalling was obviously not a solution; the old man Osman was clearly using this method to fight for the right to enter later.

After all, in a duel, the one who enters first would inevitably be somewhat restrained by the one who enters later.

“And for those who enter after?” Louis asked in a deep voice.

“One from each side takes turns entering first.”

“Fine, no problem. In that case, send your people in!”

After some discussion among the many strong individuals at the front,

a moment later, a man of about forty, with a resolute face and an unremarkable appearance, walked toward the vortex.

As he entered the vortex,

in the projection in midair, the figures of two people had already appeared.

Without any exchange, the two sides immediately engaged in combat.

But soon, Gune noticed some clues.

The one who entered first from the side of the evil gods and the church was a peak sixth-rank expert.

His strength was not weak, but he was clearly just a relatively formidable expert.

In contrast, the man from the Transcendent Association was clearly an expert who had long settled at the peak of the sixth rank.

There was a clear gap in strength between the two.

After about two or three minutes of fighting, the expert from the evil god side was ultimately slain on the spot by the expert from the Transcendent Association.

With the outcome of one dead and one alive decided,

the Death guarding the mountain path reached out in the air, grabbed the corpse into his hand, and then merged it into his own body.

Then, he moved aside.

The middle-aged expert from the Transcendent Association did not hesitate and directly followed the mountain path to enter.

As soon as he entered the mountain path, everyone could clearly see some traces of the path.

But the man's figure disappeared within the mountain path, appearing in an unknown location.

Seeing this, Gune couldn't help but ponder.

“Obviously, this mountain path is just an entrance for teleportation. The actual location should be in some unknown corner within this mist-shrouded peak.”

“The plan to block people on the mountain path should be impossible.”

The first battle, with the evil god and church side losing, seemed to be within their expectations.

After all, this first entrant was not top-tier in strength.

A moment later, a woman who looked quite delicate, with a slim figure, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing a red leather armor, entered the vortex.

“Strong, but not strong enough to warrant my intervention.”

After observing for a while, Gune suppressed his thoughts.

In fact, when both sides were preparing for a real contest, Gune had already silently conducted a survey using the Eye of Fate.

Naturally, Gune could sense several powerful experts; these were likely top-tier powerhouses who had been at the peak of the sixth rank for a long time, all capable of breaking through to the seventh rank of transcendence.

He also had his eyes on the few top geniuses who had descended from the starry skies of foreign realms.

These people were Gune's targets.

"I'll take this one."

Just as the many experts ahead were discussing.

A deep, rough voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.

Everyone turned to look.

Gune smiled as soon as he saw who it was.

The newcomer was none other than the Dragon Slayer, Sigurd.

"Now this is interesting. That woman has dragon blood in her veins. Although she is also an expert who has spent some time at the late stage of the sixth rank of transcendence, facing a sixth-rank dragon slayer won't be easy for her!"

At this moment, the Dragon Slayer Sigurd had also advanced to the early sixth rank.

Although his rank was lower than hers, he was a dragon slayer, and she possessed dragon blood.

The woman had hidden herself deeply, but she could not fool Gune's eyes, nor could she escape the dragon slayer's perception.

"I didn't see Sigurd earlier; he must have been hiding too. Now that he spots a dragon-blooded individual, he immediately shows himself. What a cunning fellow."

Sure enough, when Sigurd appeared,

the few experts who knew the woman had dragon blood immediately darkened their expressions.

They vaguely guessed the woman's fate.

With a leap, Sigurd entered the vortex.

In the projection, when Gune saw it was Sigurd, he clearly noticed the woman's face tremble; she must have known the Dragon Slayer Sigurd's reputation.

Soon, the battle began.

The Dragon Slayer made Gune clearly feel what it meant to be countered by a transcendent sequence.

The woman's attacks were sharp, and her speed was extremely fast.

One could even say she completely surpassed Sigurd in momentum.

But the problem was that when her attacks landed on Sigurd, the damage they caused was almost pitiful.

And when the Dragon Slayer Sigurd let out a roar of draconic might, the woman's body trembled uncontrollably. A long-range blade strike hit her and nearly took half her life.

The perfect counter of the transcendent sequence left her with no chance of turning the tables.

"So this is the counter of the transcendent sequence? The gap is indeed huge."

Gune pondered inwardly.

"Fortunately, my Blood Curse Master has no aspects that are countered."

"Even if slightly countered, my true reliance is not just the Blood Curse Master's methods."

Soon the battle ended, and without any surprise, the Dragon Slayer Sigurd emerged victorious.

Even the woman's final outburst was easily neutralized by Sigurd.

With two consecutive wins, many experts on the Transcendent Association side wore smiles.

The advantage of the first two was immense, and everyone was naturally in high spirits.

After a moment, another person from the evil god's side stepped forward.

When Gune saw this person, his eyes narrowed slightly.

It was an old man with a slightly hunched figure.

He was even dressed in ordinary clothes, his hands empty without any weapon. He simply walked to the entrance of the vortex and stepped inside.

"This guy is not simple!" Gune thought to himself.

In Gune's observation, this old man was one of the experts who had been at the peak of the sixth rank for a long time.

In fact, he was one of the strongest among them.

"How about it? Want to give it a try?" A voice suddenly sounded behind Gune.

Gune was not at all surprised by the abrupt voice.

He had already noticed when this person approached.

Gune turned around and looked at the slightly short, plump transcendent being, smiling lightly: "Senior Nigel, long time no see."
