Chapter 2450: The Holy Mandate Imprint’s Power (1/2)

Duan Xuan, Zhan Zhiyuan, the Scarlet Flame Holy Gate’s Patriarch, Blue Whale Race’s Patriarch, and the others recognized the Black Serpent Rope almost simultaneously, and their expressions were extremely solemn.

All of them were aware of the Black Serpent Rope’s origins and power.

Regret hit Duan Xuan with a great blow. If he had known about this, he too would have given Fagn Xing the Ancient Emperor Holy Ground’s most powerful treasure. Had he done so, he was certain that Fang Xing could have absolutely defeated Huang Xiaolong, and the grandmist holy spiritual aura would have belonged to the Ancient Emperor Holy Ground.

“Senior Sister, is the Black Serpent Rope very powerful?” After noticing the solemn expressions of Wu Ge and the others, Lin Xiaoying asked her senior sister.

Tan Juan’s delicate brows creased into furrows as she answered immediately, “Powerful does not begin to describe it! I have heard our Master say that this Black Serpent Rope was made from the Black Serpent’s scales that was born at the heart of the Holy World, and it is comparable to a dao artifact. It is said to be able to bind everything. If a Ninth Heaven True Saint expert holds the Black Serpent Rope, he would be invincible under Primal Ancestors!”

Both Lin Xiaoying and Ji Xinyi paled while listening to Tan Juan’s explanation.

“Then, isn’t Thirteen in grave danger?!” Lin Xiaoying became agitated.

Sometimes, Lin Xiaoying would call Huang Xiaolong by name, other times, she called him Thirteen.

Tan Juan shook her head as she sighed, “Huang Xiaolong is probably going to lose! Strong as he might be, and as talented as he is, he won’t be able to break free from the Black Serpent Rope’s restraint! However, Sui Yunfeng doesn’t have the guts to really kill Huang Xiaolong, so, Huang Xiaolong’s life is not exactly in danger.”

On the battle stage, the feeble, half-dead Sui Yunfeng laughed crazily when he saw the Black Serpent Rope had successfully bound Huang Xiaolong. But because of laughing, he stimulated his injuries and coughed up large amounts of blood.

Sui Yunfeng wiped off the blood from the corners of his mouth, and his face distorted due to the wicked smile on his face.

Shen Jiewen too was smiling with satisfaction.

He had gone through a lot of troubles and hardships to obtain the Black Serpent Rope, and since then, he had kept it a secret. He had never taken it out nor shown it to anyone, treating it as if it was almost more precious than his own life. This time around, to ensure Sui Yunfeng’s a hundred percent win for that grandmist holy spiritual aura, he was making the bet of his life. Therefore, he had taken out the Black Serpent Rope and exposed its existence.

In truth, Shen Jiewen was very confident in the Black Serpent Rope, and coupled with Sui Yunfeng’s strength to activate the Black Serpent Rope, there was more than enough power to kill the average peak late-Ninth Tribulation half-True Saint expert. It was impossible for Huang Xiaolong to break free from it’s binding.

The final outcome was obvious.

Huang Xiaolong’s body was enshrouded in resplendent lights as he struggled to break free from the Black Serpent Rope’s bindings, but no matter how much force he exerted, how bright the light around him was, his energy was unable to break the Black Serpent Rope.

More annoyingly, the more Huang Xiaolong struggled, the more the Black Serpent Rope tightened around him.

“Huang Xiaolong, you’re struggling in vain. Unless you can break through to Saint Realm on the spot, don’t dream of breaking free from the Black Serpent Rope’s restraint. Not to mention, the more you struggle, the tighter you’ll be bound, and the more painful it’ll be for you!” Sui Yunfeng cackled, “I advise you to be obedient, and admit defeat now, so you can suffer less!”

Yet Huang Xiaolong remained calm. He had heard of the Black Serpent Rope, and he had struggled to simply test out its power. He had three holy souls, as long as he summoned out one of his holy souls, he could break the Black Serpent Rope’s restraint in an instant.

However, Huang Xiaolong did not want to reveal that he had holy souls at this point yet.

His three holy souls were his trump cards.

Unless he had an even bigger trump card.

After seeing Huang Xiaolong standing still without speaking, Sui Yunfeng smirked, “Huang Xiaolong, do you think it’ll be fine if you refuse to admit defeat? I’ll let you taste how powerful the Black Serpent Rope is!”

With that said, according to the method Patriarch Shen Jiewen had taught him, Sui Yunfeng activated the Black Serpent Rope’s other function.

In an instant, the Black Serpent Rope continued to tighten around Huang Xiaolong that it felt like the surrounding space was squeezing him.

The Black Serpent Rope’s tightening was not as simple as the surrounding space tightening around Huang Xiaolong, but the victim’s divine soul would also be subjected to tremendous binding pressure and pain. At the same time, the Black Serpent Rope’s power would invade into the victim’s body, increasing the pain.

Lin Xiaoying’s chest tightened as she watched helplessly.
