Chapter 1628 – Eerie Demonic Shadows
A demonic statue with blood stains, an eerily white ancient tree branch, a dilapidated gate resembling a human face, a total of nineteen dangerous existence had appeared simultaneously.
BANG!
A great aura surged in all directions like a heavenly dragon.
The crimson-golden battle armor that Qin Nan was wearing began to emit blinding crimson-red glows as if it was triggered.
"It's very likely that there's some shocking succession among these nineteen objects."
Qin Nan frowned and said, "But, it's hard to tell which one is a succession, and which one is a danger.
Tang Qingshan furrowed too. A few moments later, he collected his thoughts and said, "Let's enter the demonic statue."
Qin Nan was startled, "How could you tell?"
"Is there any way to tell?"
Tang Qingshan grinned and said, "As my Junior Brother, you've already overtaken me by a lot. Wouldn't I, as your Senior Brother end up as a laughing stock if I don't move forward sooner?"
"If there's no way to tell which one is the right one, the only choice is to pick one randomly. Ten years later, if you haven't heard anything from me, remember to set up a grave for me."
Saying this, he turned into a godly ray and entered the demonic statue.
The nineteen objects buzzed and sank into disappearance.
The Peerless Land of Death fell deadly silent too.
To Tang Qingshan, becoming a Heaven God or a Human Immortal did not really matter much.
He had already chosen the path of killing. There were only two possible endings to him, rather it be shocking the world with his reputation, or turning into scattering dust.
"Senior Brother, there's no way I will set up your grave."
Qin Nan shook his head after a brief pause.
He believed that Tang Qingshan was surely able to earn his reputation in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. It was not because Tang Qingshan was his Senior Brother, but the fact that the man had this impressive courage.
"Where should I go now?"
Qin Nan soon withdrew his thoughts and started analyzing the situation.
Xu Xianzhi, Long Chan, Gu Zhenyi, and the rest of the Peerless Geniuses must have headed for the place with the rare phenomenon of illusionary dragons.
After witnessing how the mountains had brought death upon the cultivators, most people would change their minds and head for the same place too.
If he was to go now, it would at least take him two hours to arrive at the destination.
By then, the successions there would most likely be acquired by the Peerless Geniuses, leaving him only a slim chance of acquiring anything useful.
That being said, it went without saying that there would be more successions waiting to be found in the Land of Immortal Death.
With the White-Blue Flower's power, there would surely be new rare phenomena after some time.
"I should go and take a look deep inside the mountain!"
Qin Nan's eyes burned passionately.
Each of the mountains was quite special, thus there must be more than one successions.
He did not want to waste his time before the next rare phenomenon took place.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A shocking heat came from the sky as the darkness was lit up by a fiery glow.
Qin Nan quickly raised his head and saw flames with the size of a palm pouring down rapidly like a rain.
In the distance, a spout of flame had landed on the ground, setting the whole place on fire.
Most eerily, the land and the branches seemed to be unaffected by the fire.
The flames were specifically targeting cultivators, and each spout could easily burn a Human Immortal to death.
Qin Nan had a strong feeling that the second massacre had just begun.
"The place ahead isn't affected yet!"
Qin Nan glanced around him as he went forward.
AH!
However, after he had flown for a few tens of breaths, a series of cries of agony was heard from the distance. It was unimaginable how horrible the situation was.
"I managed to avoid it."
Qin Nan took a deep breath as he slowed down and looked ahead.
He had arrived at an unfamiliar place. The whole area was in pitch-black darkness, and his eyes were only able to see ten zhang away from him.
Even the flames pouring down from the sky were unable to light up the place.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan was startled.
As he continued moving forward, the cold, still ground under his feet started to change. He began to feel wisps of saber intents flowing within it.
Flowers and trees with an overwhelming presence of Qi sprouted out from the ground on both sides along the path.
Even though they were not Immortal Herbs, the sum of their value was equivalent to a few Immortal Herbs.
"Did I find a land of treasure?"
The thought crossed Qin Nan's mind. However, he did not reach out his hand to loot the place. He was even more cautious than before.
"Eternal Demon Hand!"
A hoarse voice uttered all of a sudden amid the darkness, followed by an enormous, pitch-black hand grabbing at Qin Nan.
"Crap!"
Qin Nan immediately prepared to execute the Sky-Stride Blow.
However, the hand was simply too quick, so quick that he could not even have time to unleash his god force when he was grabbed by the hand and dragged around forcibly.
The hand finally disappeared after it dragged Qin Nan into a stone hall.
"Who's there?"
Qin Nan said observing his surroundings.
The space in the hall was around ten thousand zhang big.
The walls were carved with ancient drawings, some consisted of stern-looking Bodhis, some had immortals in long robes, and others were incredibly strange.
Deep inside the hall stood three ancient sabers with icy, overwhelming auras stuck into the ground in crossed paths.
Between the sabers was a pitch-black, demonic shadow trembling restlessly. A face with no eyes could be seen from it at times.
"Who are you?"
Qin Nan unleashed his god force. His right arm exploded into the Heaven-Shattering Saber.
The three ancient sabers shuddered as soon as the Heaven-Shattering Saber appeared. The icy glow above the sabers dimmed slightly.
"Tsk tsk, such a magical saber, to be able to suppress the Three Immortal-Suppressing Sabers to a certain degree!"
The demonic shadow chuckled in a weird voice and said, "It seems like you are the person that I've been waiting all along!"
"You might not believe this, but once, a Peerless Ruler prophesized that only you can save me from this place…"
Hearing this, Qin Nan immediately realized something. He replied, "Senior, say no more, I do find it hard to believe. I'm quite busy, so I'll be on my way. Please excuse me."
He turned and walked toward the door.
Since the demonic shadow was being suppressed, it was unnecessary for him to waste any time on it.
After all, if the demonic shadow had the ability to kill him, it would have attacked him instead of talking so much.
As for saving the demonic shadow?
There was no way he would do it!
In a place full of dangers, especially knowing that it was an Immoral Ancient Place that only those below the Human Immortal Realm could enter, it was oddly strange to stumble into a demonic shadow that was being suppressed by three powerful sabers
"How dare you! I am the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor, you better…"
The demonic shadow did not expect Qin Nan's response. It was about to roar furiously, yet it immediately wore a blank face when it saw Qin Nan had actually left the hall through the door.
Did the guy seriously just leave like that?
