"Jin Wuzhu, do you really think you're someone important? I'm waiting for you!"
Facing Jin Wuzhu's death threat, Cang Yun glared back, completely unfazed.
As a prince of Canggu Domain, this was his duty.
"Good, good, good!"
The geniuses of Canggu Domain cheered loudly, and the tension between the two sides immediately escalated.
"Hahaha, then wait. I, this prince, will let you understand your own weakness."
Jin Wuzhu let out a sinister laugh. Once they entered this battleground without rules, he could act with impunity.
He had absolute confidence in his strength and would sweep aside anyone who stood in his way of obtaining treasures.
"Excellent, treasure hunting should be more interesting. Erupt, Ceremony of Treasures!"
The Mountain God gave the command. Above Xuan'ao Peak, the clouds crackled with lightning and thunder.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Countless treasures descended with immense force, completely different from the previous descent of treasures by the Star God group.
This scene instantly piqued everyone's interest. They fixed their gaze on the Xuan'ao Peak Sky Ladder, all waiting for this grand feast to begin.
"Open the formation!"
Jin Wuzhu gave a command, and the many geniuses behind him channeled their divine techniques, forming a divine power shield in an instant.
"Charge!"
As expected, they were well-prepared. Jin Wuzhu, leading over a dozen geniuses from Sheng Huang Domain, charged directly towards the Sky Ladder.
However, as geniuses from nine-level great worlds, Shui Hua and Cang Yun were not to be outdone.
Cang Yun also signaled to those around him, activating their protective formation. Shui Hua, however, was extremely arrogant and didn't even activate a formation, charging alone towards the Sky Ladder.
"Princess Shui Hua!"
The geniuses behind her showed concern and quickly followed.
"Junior sisters, let them fight for the initial treasures. Master told us that the real treasures are yet to come."
"Understood, Senior Sister. We'll listen to you."
On the Myriad Realms side, Lin Xueyan and the others strolled leisurely, showing no signs of nervousness.
According to Ye Yun's strategy, they needed to observe the strength of the three princes first and also guard against any hidden masters.
But there was no rule stating that the three princes were the strongest geniuses of these three major powers; perhaps they were just decoys?
Although the possibility was low, Ye Yun had accounted for it.
Seeing that the women were not in a hurry, Ye Yun nodded slightly from below, satisfied.
At this moment, Jin Wuzhu and his team had already reached the forefront, with Cang Yun and Shui Hua close behind, unwilling to be left behind.
"Hahaha, is that a seventh-tier divine artifact up ahead? A seventh-tier divine artifact appearing so early, this treasure hunt is truly exhilarating."
Jin Wuzhu laughed heartily, reaching out and grabbing the artifact with his powerful divine force.
"Sizzling!"
However, the artifact suddenly began to vibrate, as if trying to break free from its restraints.
"Hmm? Why is this?"
Jin Wuzhu looked puzzled.
"Hahaha, if you want to snatch treasures, you must have enough strength. These divine artifacts only obey the strong."
"Thank you, Senior Mountain God, for your guidance."
Jin Wuzhu was not so arrogant as to be disrespectful to the Mountain God. He cupped his hands in salute towards the Mountain God's direction, then channeled his divine power into the artifact.
The artifact's resistance gradually subsided, and it became Jin Wuzhu's treasure.
"Hahaha, very good."
Jin Wuzhu wore a triumphant expression. He was the first to claim a treasure!
"We, Sheng Huang Domain, are the strongest! Well done, Prince Jin Wuzhu!"
The geniuses of Sheng Huang Domain shouted happily. They waved towards the warships of Sheng Huang Domain, where many powerful figures responded, doing their best to showcase Sheng Huang Domain's glory.
"Ah!"
Just as the people of Sheng Huang Domain were cheering, a sharp white light from behind instantly overtook them.
"Hmm? It's Princess Shui Hua!"
"Princess Shui Hua, please don't leave me, Jin Wuzhu!"
Jin Wuzhu suddenly released metallic wings from his back and soared upwards, his speed so fast it was a blur.
"Scram!"
Shui Hua, seeing Jin Wuzhu following her, unleashed a sharp sword energy.
The sword energy shot directly towards Jin Wuzhu's forehead, filled with murderous intent.
"Alas, you are truly too cruel. I was thinking of marrying you, Princess."
"You scoundrel, you have no shame!"
"Hehe, this prince needs no face, only beauty and treasures. Up here on the Sky Ladder, there are no rules. If I can win the beauty's heart, then she will be mine."
"Die!"
Shui Hua could no longer tolerate Jin Wuzhu's vulgar remarks. Her ninth-tier divine sword materialized in her hand.
"Chapter of Hua Yue—Kill!"
The divine sword swung, and sword energy roared, its power comparable to ordinary hundred-tier Heavenly God power, shaking everyone's hearts.
"A ninth-tier divine artifact, and Princess Shui Hua's foundation is too strong!"
"She is only a seventy-fifth-tier Heavenly God, yet she can unleash divine power comparable to a hundred-tier Heavenly God. This woman is too powerful."
"Can Jin Wuzhu withstand it? Is he going to die?"
Everyone looked towards the Sky Ladder. Jin Wuzhu was also a seventy-fifth-tier Heavenly God; could he truly withstand this blow? Many people lacked confidence in a positive outcome.
"Rumble!"
A deafening explosion shook the heavens and earth.
If it weren't for Xuan'ao Peak being protected by the laws of heaven and earth, this single blow would have been enough to inflict severe damage.
Chaos erupted, and smoke billowed.
The spectators below stared intently at the center of the battle, hoping to see the outcome.
As the smoke gradually dispersed, Jin Wuzhu's lewd smile was revealed.
"What?!"
Not only the people below, but even Shui Hua showed a look of astonishment.
How did Jin Wuzhu manage to block that strike?
"Princess Shui Hua, you are truly too venomous, actually trying to kill me!"
"Hmph, for a repulsive, cunning, and sinister person like you, death is too good!"
"Alas, what a pity. You cannot kill me. How about I give you this seventh-tier divine artifact as a gift?"
Jin Wuzhu's eyes changed, and he suddenly threw out the seventh-tier divine artifact he held. Powerful divine light emanated from it, causing Shui Hua's heart to tremble.
Because this scoundrel Jin Wuzhu had used a method of shattering the divine artifact to unleash the strongest possible damage in this strike.
Clearly, the power of this strike was in no way inferior to the one Shui Hua had just unleashed.
"Chapter of Hua Yue: Cold Moon Illuminates Water Prison."
The Chapter of Hua Yue was gently swung by Shui Hua. Behind her, the entire space transformed into a scene of cold moonlight.
The Moon Radiance domain unfolded, further enhancing the power of the Chapter of Hua Yue.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Streams of cold moon water descended from the sky.
When the seventh-tier divine artifact, thrown by Jin Wuzhu, touched this cold moon water, it seemed to lose its power and directly merged into the water, floating suspended.
"Oh?"
Jin Wuzhu's lips curved into a slight smile. He hadn't expected her to be able to so skillfully resolve his attack.
"Princess Shui Hua!"
At this moment, other geniuses from Shenqiong Domain also arrived.
"Such a petty trick, and you expect to harm me? Ridiculous."
