Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 254 - 252: A Game that Covers the Skies

Chapter 254: Chapter 252: A Game that Covers the Skies

“If no one is willing to step out, then let’s stop the pointless chatter.”

Su Han said, “I’ll hold off one of the Mercury Illusions, and you guys hold off the other two. Whoever weakens their Mercury Illusion first gets to snatch the Dragon Blood. That’s fair for everyone.”

“Brother Liang’s words are sensible. If Brother Liang needs help, I can join him,” Ye Longhe said.

“No need,” Su Han shook his head.

“Then we’ll trust you this once,” Mo Jiuyou and Gui Qingtian said in unison.

“Let’s begin.”

Right after Su Han finished speaking, he dashed forward, his figure becoming a streak of flowing light, attacking the Mercury Illusion.

Seeing Su Han charging in, the three Mercury Illusions simultaneously turned their heads, fixing their gaze on him.

“Quick!” Su Han shouted.

Mo Jiuyou and the others didn’t hesitate, after all, this wasn’t just Su Han’s concern, they also wanted the Dragon Blood and had to launch an attack.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”

Many figures charged out, splitting into two groups and rushing towards the other two Mercury Illusions.

The Mercury Illusions were indeed formidable, constantly bombarding Su Han with attacks that emitted thunderous, earth-shattering roars.

Su Han kept retreating, seemingly at a disadvantage.

“As expected!”

While attacking, Mo Jiuyou, Gui Qingtian, and the others witnessed Su Han’s struggle and couldn’t help thinking, “This bastard, he can’t handle the three Mercury Illusions by himself, that’s why he let us in.”

Even so, they were completely reassured.

It was true Su Han couldn’t withstand the Mercury Illusion, but he was capable of holding it off. As a result, their own pace could be accelerated. As long as they could strike the brow of the Mercury Illusion before Su Han did, causing it to weaken, they would get the Dragon Blood first!

“Attack with all your might!”

Mo Jiuyou roared, flipping his palm and pulling out a longsword.

The longsword was pitch-black with dazzling purple light flickering around its edges—clearly a High-Grade Purple Gold Level weapon, and among the top-grade of its kind!

Such a weapon could only be suppressed by Holy Spirit Level.

“Whoosh!”

He slashed down with his sword, even using the Dragon Technique, which unleashed an earth-shattering Sword Light that bombarded the Mercury Illusion.

At the same time, the others didn’t hesitate either, deploying their most powerful attacks and throwing Pills into their mouths as if they were worthless.

This was their opportunity, their final chance, their only chance!

Ye Longhe and the others also went all out, striving to suppress the Mercury Illusion.

Only Su Han, pressed step by step by the Mercury Illusion, grew pale.

“Pff!”

In a moment, Su Han suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and was sent flying backward.

“Haha…”

Seeing this, Mo Jiuyou couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Liang Shaohui, you said it yourself that you would handle a Mercury Illusion on your own. You better restrain it and not disrupt our rhythm, don’t lose your credibility!”

Gui Qingtian’s mouth also revealed a smile, “If I can get the Dragon Blood and after leaving the Gate of Deer Chasing, I will forget today’s enmity and even send you some rewards!”

Su Han didn’t speak, only looked at them with an unsightly expression, seeming extremely angry at their kicks while he was down.

Their mocking faces were fully registered by everyone, the sneers in their hearts growing even stronger.

“Does Brother Liang need help?”

Only Ye Longhe, upon seeing Su Han injured, furrowed his brows, ready to rush over.

“No need, I can hold it off.”

Su Han said as he once again rushed out to clash with the Mercury Illusion.

Seeing this, Ye Longhe hesitated for a moment, ultimately sighed, and did not come to help.

As time passed, the bombardment from everyone became more and more intense, and the consumption of energy grew, leaving the entire cave in utter disarray.

“Something’s not right!”

Gui Qingtian suddenly frowned and said, “This Mercury Illusion is getting stronger!”

At those words, everyone else was also jolted to realization.

They suddenly discovered that when they were all attacking the Mercury Illusion, using fifty percent of their strength was enough to counter it, yet using their full strength only resulted in the same—you could only just hold your own against it!

It wasn’t that their own powers were weakening, but the Mercury Illusion’s strength was increasing!

After figuring this out, everyone’s gaze suddenly fell on Su Han.

In that instant, the paleness on Su Han’s face suddenly vanished, replaced by a smile; the impression of being pressed step by step was nowhere to be found.

“You guys just realized it now?” Su Han asked calmly, his voice containing some mockery.

Truth be told, he had not expected Gui Qingtian and the others to be so slow to catch on, considering they were supposed to be the talents of some crappy First-Class Sect. With such dull wits, if they were in the Star Region, they’d be nothing.

Initially, Su Han had thought they would quickly notice, but it turned out they hadn’t felt it at all.

Of course, Su Han had no intention of reminding them, for the more they consumed, the easier it would be for him to take care of them later.

From the beginning until now, Su Han was just playing along in their act!

“You knew all along?”

Gui Qingtian and the others’ faces darkened.

“Of course.”

Su Han dodged the Mercury Illusion’s attack with a calm smile and said faintly, “This Mercury Illusion has a special ability—they can absorb the attack power of their opponents. The stronger the opponent, the stronger they become, the weaker the opponent, the weaker they become. You understand what I’m saying, right?”

“Damn it!”

Mo Jiuyou cursed through clenched teeth.

They could of course understand, no wonder Su Han had been pushed back whenever he came into contact with the Mercury Illusion.

Now it seemed it was not because Su Han was no match for the Mercury Illusion, but because he wanted to weaken it!

Ye Longhe also sighed, suddenly coming to a realization.

He finally understood why Su Han, even after being bombarded and injured, still didn’t let him help.

Because if he had helped, the power of the Mercury Illusion would have been enhanced!

Looking at Su Han’s current state, he was not hurt at all, he had feigned the injuries before, the blood and pale face had all been an act.

“Liang Shaohui, you have such a deep scheme!” roared an infuriated genius.

They had used all their tricks and reached their peak attack power, so the Mercury Illusion, by now, was naturally terrifyingly strong.

In contrast, the Mercury Illusion facing Su Han was probably unusually weak.

“A deep scheme?”

Su Han shook his head: “It’s not that I’m deeply scheming, but rather that I know far more than you all do.”

“You’ve indeed played a good game!”

Gui Qingtian said darkly, “From the moment you entered the bottom of the lake, you lured that huge black fish to flee, leaving us time to know that the white light could transport us here.”

“Then, upon entering this place, you opened the Light Barrier for us to pass through.”

“And lastly, you said you could hold off a Mercury Illusion by yourself… all of this was for this moment!!!”

The more Gui Qingtian spoke, the more agitated and angry he became, yet with the anger, he couldn’t help but admire the depth of Su Han’s scheming.
