Chapter 2070 - 2097: The Last Hope

Chapter 2070: Chapter 2097: The Last Hope

Amidst the wounds, blood continuously flowed out, while the Holy Heart had long lost the strength to fight anymore.

After all, the Holy Heart had been severely wounded before the battle even began, and it’s not something that could recover in one or two days.

Moreover, the Ancient Blood Dragon’s power was stronger than that of Holy Heart, who simply was no match for the Ancient Blood Dragon.

"Roar~~~" The Ancient Blood Dragon roared angrily, filled with murderous intent, and then charged at the Holy Heart.

The Holy Heart shouted loudly, "I surrender!" If he didn’t surrender now, it would really mean death!

After hearing the Holy Heart’s words, the Golden Robe smiled faintly, then waved his arm, and with a flash of light, the Ancient Blood Dragon completely vanished from space. However, despair showed in the Holy Heart’s eyes; they knew they had failed.

They were aware that now they were powerless to turn the tide; no matter how they fought, there was no chance of survival.

The Holy Heart had already failed, and Bai Yue and Liang Hao were even less likely to succeed. Even if Ye Feng eventually succeeded and passed the final checkpoint, the Sword Qi would still extend seventy zhang, and now as soon as the Sword Qi extends ten more zhang, they would be killed.

Ultimately, they would still die, so they already knew their final fate; they were doomed.

But upon seeing the Holy Heart fail, Ye Feng had a smile on his face; Ye Feng still hadn’t despaired.

"We’re done for! We’re already toast..." Liang Hao said helplessly; they were all about to give up.

The Golden Robe said, "Don’t rush; the test isn’t over yet. Aren’t there still three checkpoints? How about this, I’ll give you all a special favor!" Then, the Golden Robe pointed to the remaining three wooden plaques on the stone platform.

"I’ll tell you directly, the first wooden plaque is a hell-level difficulty checkpoint, while the remaining two are challenging difficulty!"

Then, the Golden Robe turned to Liang Hao and said, "Young friend Liang Hao, make your choice. As long as one of you succeeds, you’ll have a chance; you can completely give it a try, like the intelligence-type checkpoint; it’s not entirely hopeless!"

After hearing the Golden Robe’s words, Liang Hao nodded his head. Now he could only brace himself to choose.

Because choosing a wooden plaque and continuing the challenge meant he had a sliver of hope; if he did nothing, then indeed, there would only be a dead end. Liang Hao said, "In that case, I choose the second wooden plaque!’ "

"Alright!" The Golden Robe smiled faintly, then flipped over the wooden plaque and smiled slightly, "Congratulations, it’s the combat type one!"

"What!" After hearing the Golden Robe’s words, Liang Hao’s face immediately turned very grim; he knew very well how difficult the combat type checkpoints were; wanting to pass was almost impossible.

Even the Holy Heart had already failed, so how could they possibly succeed? Liang Hao almost didn’t hesitate, "I give up!" The Golden Robe looked at Liang Hao, confirming once again, "Are you sure you want to give up?"

Liang Hao nodded, "Yes, I give up!" Then Liang Hao looked at Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, you won’t blame me, will you?"

Ye Feng smiled slightly, "It’s alright, just do what you can. With your strength, wanting to pass a combat-type, challenging-level checkpoint is impossible; you could even lose your life carelessly, it’s not your fault..."

At this time, the Holy Heart remained silent, sitting in his seat, expression dull and lifeless; evidently, he was waiting for death.

Only the last two checkpoints remained; they had to succeed in both to survive.

The Holy Heart had almost resigned himself to the fact that they were doomed; as for Bai Yue, it was impossible for her to succeed no matter what.

The Golden Robe’s gaze shifted to Bai Yue, "Miss Bai Yue, it’s your turn to choose now. Here’s a friendly reminder, the last challenging-level checkpoint tests your comprehension; everyone has a chance to pass!"

"Oh?" Upon hearing the Golden Robe’s words, a glimmer of excitement returned to the eyes of Liang Hao and the Holy Heart.

Seeing hope in them again, the Golden Robe felt quite proud; his favorite thing was seeing everyone’s expressions change—first despair, then hope, then extinguishing that hope and plunging them into utter despair.

However, Ye Feng’s eyes still showed no emotional fluctuation, and this made the Golden Robe quite angry.

He found Ye Feng irritating because Ye Feng remained incredibly calm no matter what he encountered.

It seemed like nothing could make Ye Feng feel fear, and Bai Yue had already made her choice at this time, "I choose the challenging-level checkpoint!" After hearing Bai Yue’s words, the Golden Robe smiled faintly, "Very good, let’s begin then..."

As soon as the words fell, the Golden Robe had already come before Bai Yue, then a touch of Spirit Light appeared on his fingertip.

The Spirit Light entered Bai Yue’s mind, and an endless joy flooded Bai Yue’s mind instantly.

The Golden Robe said, "This is a sword technique, very mysterious; if you can comprehend it, you can become a Saint Lord, with combat power at Super Two. I give you one day, if you can comprehend and successfully execute it within a day, you pass!"

"This..." After hearing the Golden Robe’s words, Bai Yue, Liang Hao, and the Holy Heart all had very grim expressions.

Under normal circumstances, being able to obtain such a powerful sword technique would indeed make them extremely excited; it was an enormous opportunity. But now it wasn’t an opportunity, this was an extraordinarily powerful sword technique capable of boosting a Holy Realm Expert’s combat power to Super Two.

It’s not the kind of thing that can be comprehended just like that, much less given only a day, which was nearly impossible.

The Golden Robe smiled faintly, "Alright, no more nonsense, the countdown begins, lass, good luck!"

Without any hesitation, Bai Yue directly began to comprehend, while Liang Hao and the Holy Heart stared intently at Bai Yue.

At this moment, Bai Yue was all their hope. As long as Bai Yue succeeded, then there was a high probability that Ye Feng could succeed too.

If that happened, they could survive. Although the chances were minuscule, it wasn’t entirely hopeless.

However, Ye Feng still appeared relaxed and calm, as if whether Bai Yue succeeded or failed made no difference, which made the Golden Robe quite displeased. He muttered inwardly, "Kid, I’ll see how long you can remain this calm!"

Time flew by rapidly, and Liang Hao, the Holy Heart remained constantly in a state of tension...
