Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven

Chapter 1952 - 1943: Xiao Fan’s Covetousness

"Hmm? There’s a restriction here as well?"

As he walked across the cliff ledge, Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but frown.

He had discovered that at the edge of the cliff, there was indeed a restriction, though it was not obvious.

Moreover, he could discern that although the aura emanating from this restriction was not strong, careful observation would reveal that the restriction here was clearly stronger than the one encountered upon entering the observation field, at least by twice.

At this moment, Xiao Fan had also arrived in front of the restriction. He, like Mo Wangchen, frowned and stopped, not daring to proceed hastily.

"Eh? That’s..."

Peering through the restriction and gazing not far away, one could see a black object on the cliff face, standing out starkly.

Mo Wangchen was astonished; it was a Great Halberd emitting a dim black glow, just embedded in the cliff, faintly exuding a terrifying aura.

"Supreme Divine Weapon!"

He couldn’t help but exclaim; if his deduction was correct, this black Great Halberd was definitely a Supreme Divine Weapon.

"Buzz..."

The restriction vibrated, seemingly detecting the presence of Mo Wangchen and Xiao Fan, as if activated, emitting an intimidating aura, as though trying to force the two to retreat.

The Supreme Divine Weapon was right in front of them, an incredible relic of an Ancient Sect. Mo Wangchen naturally couldn’t withdraw.

He took a deep breath and then stepped forward resolutely.

Not far away, Xiao Fan stood quietly in place; seeing Mo Wangchen’s intention, he sneered disdainfully.

This restriction was at least twice as strong as the one encountered upon entering the observation field. Even his Overlord Body would be at risk of unexpected incidents inside such a complex environment. Xiao Fan didn’t believe that someone as insignificant as Mo Wangchen could retrieve the Supreme Divine Weapon under such pressure.

"Huh?"

But soon, Xiao Fan noticed something amiss.

Because he found that the scene before him was not as he imagined.

He thought that upon contact with the restriction’s power, Mo Wangchen would be immediately forced out.

But now, although his steps were slow, he was truly able to walk as if it were flat ground, advancing under the powerful restriction.

"How is that possible?"

Xiao Fan frowned; under such restrictive pressure, even his Overlord Body would be greatly affected, let alone an ordinary Mortal Body.

This was abnormal!

"Who is this person?"

For the first time, he looked directly at Mo Wangchen, unable to suppress the surge of curiosity.

This unknown young man in white must have an extraordinary background, definitely not someone insignificant.

Moreover, to walk as if on level ground in such dire circumstances, he likely had some unique physique!

Seeing Mo Wangchen’s steps unwavering, continuously approaching, getting closer to the Divine Spear on the cliff, Xiao Fan finally couldn’t sit still.

He took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and stepped forward as well!

It was unclear how much time had passed; Xiao Fan reached the front, and Mo Wangchen stood at the bottom of the cliff, neither of them moved.

Because Mo Wangchen could discern that the Divine Spear embedded in the cliff was faintly emanating a powerful aura, seemingly capable of destroying everything.

Xiao Fan naturally noticed this as well.

He looked at the Divine Spear, then at Mo Wangchen, finally couldn’t help but ask, "This friend seems unfamiliar, may I ask where you’re from?"

"Lizhou."

Mo Wangchen replied calmly, and after a moment, uttered those two words flatly.

"Lizhou..."

Xiao Fan squinted his eyes, "Could you be Du Feiyang of the legendary Holy Dragon Body?"

Rumor had it there was a Sacred Body in Lizhou, renowned throughout the world, namely, Green Origin Saint Du Feiyang.

As someone with an Overlord Body, Xiao Fan was greatly concerned about those with special physiques in the Heavenly Domain. Although he hadn’t met Du Feiyang, the name was well-known to him.

Hearing Xiao Fan’s words, Mo Wangchen was slightly taken aback, and then gently shook his head, "You’ve got the wrong person."

"Not Du Feiyang?"

Xiao Fan frowned, fell into silence again, then spoke, "Besides the Holy Dragon Body in Lizhou, who else could stand here like this? If you aren’t Du Feiyang, are you the Heavenly Emperor Bloodline of the Ye Family?"

In sprawling Lizhou, only two figures are considered true geniuses, widely known across Heavenly Domain. Besides these two, Xiao Fan couldn’t imagine anyone else who could stand here unimpeded by the restriction’s pressure.

Mo Wangchen shook his head again, "I know both of the people you mentioned."

"Oh?"

Xiao Fan squinted again, his eyes flashing, he suddenly recalled some rumors he’d heard, "You’re neither of the Holy Dragon Body, nor of the Ye Family’s Heavenly Emperor Bloodline, could it be... are you Mo Wangchen, the emerging Divine King Body?"

"You’ve heard of me?"

Mo Wangchen was puzzled, clearly surprised that even someone as famous as Xiao Fan with an Overlord Body had heard of him.

"Lately, there’ve been rumors about a Divine King Body comparable to the Holy Dragon Body appearing in Lizhou. Unexpectedly, I got to meet you today."

Xiao Fan remained indifferent as if he was always like this, and looked at Mo Wangchen, continuing, "I heard you acquired a Dragon and Phoenix Map and Flame Emperor’s Secret Technique in Tianxu Mountain Range?"

"What are you trying to say?"

Mo Wangchen spoke calmly, slightly frowning, as he felt an antagonistic vibe from Xiao Fan.

The other likely had designs on his Secret Technique and Divine Weapon.

"Heh, Flame Emperor is a legend, known by all in the Heavenly Domain, isn’t it?"

"I’ve long wanted to glimpse the wonders of his Secret Technique, but never had the chance. Who would’ve thought I’d come across Brother Mo here today?"

He candidly revealed his intentions, gazing at Mo Wangchen with interest, "I wonder if Brother Mo could give me a chance to borrow the Flame Emperor’s Secret Technique for a look?"

"Do you think that’s possible?"

Mo Wangchen couldn’t help laughing, "I heard your Mishuang Sacred Land’s Ancient Scripture is also excellent, not much inferior to those Ancient Heavenly Emperor techniques, why not lend it to me for a look?"

"It’s not impossible to see my Mishuang’s Ancient Scripture, but throughout history, none outside Mishuang who saw it lived. If you wish to see it, I don’t mind." Xiao Fan sneered, exuding a terrifying aura slightly.

"Oh? Are you trying to start something here?" Mo Wangchen squinted, ready for a fight.

"This isn’t the best place for a fight, but since I’ve run into you today, I won’t miss the Dragon and Phoenix Map and Flame Emperor’s Secret Technique. After acquiring the Divine Weapon, I will seek you again."

He sneered, withdrawing his gaze from Mo Wangchen, then looked at the Divine Spear on the cliff, striding forward.
