Chapter 577 - Howls of the Wind—the Celestial-Devouring Insec (1/2)

...Meanwhile, at the Emperor’s Audience Hall in the royal palace of White Tiger City...
On the screen, the colorful flowers bloomed and the beasts knelt down on the ground as the Dragon Abyss Tree grew rapidly. The astonishing sight left the ministers in the entire hall in awe!
The Dragon Abyss Tree was bearing its fruits!
This was the most crucial time in the trial of the Dragon Abyss Mystical Ground!
The one who came out on top would be chosen as the crown prince!
“So who’s going to win today!”
“From the surface, it seems like the Third Prince has a higher chance in winning!”
“I think the Second Prince will win instead!”
The ministers expressed their opinions respectively. From the surface, the Third Prince’s group was stronger than the Second Prince’s. However, since Di Fengyun had gathered them here with the Emperor Drum, it implied that he was extremely confident that the Second Prince would win.
“Is he only planning to let everyone witness the Second Prince’s victory and the Third Prince’s defeat?”
The thought flashed across Elder Wang’s mind. He subconsciously clenched his fists.
……
……
...In the Dragon Abyss Mystical Ground, at the peak of the Heartbroken Cliff...
Qin Nan and his crew were astounded witnessing the sight before them. They had no idea the awakening of the Dragon Abyss Tree would cause such a marvelous sight.
Following this, the beasts in the lake became calm as the roars came to a stop.
Meanwhile, the Dragon Abyss Tree on the peak stood firmly between the Heavens and Earth like an ancient giant, suppressing the entire lake and the whole Mystical Ground!
“Are those the Dragon Abyss Fruits?”
Qin Nan collected his thoughts and glanced at the tree.
Golden fruits could be seen taking shape on the giant Dragon Abyss Tree. The fruits were only the size of a palm, covered in countless runes. A magnificent energy was stored within each of them.
He counted a total of ninety-nine Dragon Abyss Fruits.
“I’m the Second Prince of the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom, Song Li. It’s an honor to meet Senior Dragon Abyss Tree!”
“I’m the Third Prince of the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom…”
The Second Prince and the Third Prince took a step forward respectfully and introduced themselves while bringing their fists together.
The Dragon Abyss Tree had a formidable status in the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom, even the royal kin were obliged to bow before it.
Whoosh.
The trunk of the Dragon Abyss Tree emitted the sound of a wave. Following this, the skin of the tree shuddered violently, before a huge pair of eyes like water tanks appeared, gazing down at the crowd.
BANG!
A terrifying suppression of the half-Martial Sacred Realm descended upon them.
Qin Nan and the others were startled, especially the Second Prince, the Third Prince, Longhu, and Yao Ji, who were knocked a step backward by the suppression. Only Qin Nan and Jiang Bilan were able to retain their calmness.
“The last time I was awakened was only ten years ago! Who would have thought the competition for the title of the crown prince would be taking place in just ten years!” The voice of the Dragon Abyss Tree was extremely deep as it echoed in the Heavens and Earth. “Your father has already mentioned it to me! There are ninety-nine Dragon Abyss Fruits this time, and you have to acquire them with your own capabilities!”
Following the words, auras could be felt from the giant Dragon Abyss Tree. Each aura was the first-layer Martial Highness Realm.
There were nine hundred and ninety-nine auras in total.
“What are those?”
