Chapter 1830 – Decisions of the Geniuses
“Did something appear?”
“Such a terrifying aura!”
“Are we feeling it from such a great distance away?”
“The thing that the Nine Heavens Supremes are after must have appeared!”
“What a pity, my cultivation is just too weak. Otherwise, I’ll surely go take a look!”
The cultivators in the outer and middle sectors stopped what they were doing; whether they were in the middle of a battle, cultivating in seclusion, or competing for the treasure. They looked to the east and expressed their astonishment.
However, they could only see the clouds. They were too far away from seeing the gate.
“Is…is that the Gate of Heavens that Immortal Emperor Gulin was referring to?”
Qin Nan lifted his gaze. Even he was surprised by the scene before him.
“This Gate of Heavens is utterly terrifying. It might even surpass the level of the Nine Heavens Supreme!”
Doom’s enormous figure was trembling.
Despite him being experienced and knowledgeable, he had never seen anything like it.
Meanwhile, the enormous Gate of Heavens shuddered, releasing a strange black ripple across the place at an indescribable pace.
When the ripple swept past the space above Qin Nan, he suddenly came to his senses when he felt an invisible force infiltrating his organs.
“What’s this?”
Qin Nan frowned slightly. He gathered his immortal force and burned the unknown force into nothing.
His immortal force had merged with the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames into one. It could be called the Dao-Melting Flames Immortal Force. It could burn any energy penetrating his body.
However, Qin Nan did not think too much about it. He had a thought watching the White-Blue Flower that was emitting a brilliant glow in the Ownerless Heaven Pattern.
Did the Gate of Heavens open because of the White-Blue Flower?
However, little did Qin Nan know, the black ripple that he quickly ignored soon spread throughout the Six Unity Forbidden Land, resulting in a shocking change.
“What just happened!?”
“Why is my immortal force sealed!?”
“Damn it! Clean and Corrupt of Four Directions, the Delusion of Yin and Yang, break!”
The cultivators in the middle and the outer sectors were startled. They began to unleash different kinds of immortal glow while activating Immortal Arts, artifacts, and talismans.
The Heaven Immortals in the middle sector were able to shatter the force in no time. Most Earth Immortals were fine too, even though their faces were pale white after expending a significant amount of energy to deal with the force.
However, some of the Earth Immortals, and the Human Immortals in the outermost sector eventually cried out in agony while their eyes were filled with terror. They could not get rid of the force regardless of how much they were struggling and the methods they used.
Their bodies began to shift abnormally and enlarged continuously. Their skin turned pitch-black as if they were poured with black ink. Fangs grew out of their mouths while their eyes turned blood-red with no other emotions apart from savagery.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
Countless roars swept across the rift as one after another cultivator lost their mind and turned into demons. They crazily executed Immortal Arts at their surroundings.
It felt as if they would not feel any fatigue. For some reason, the immortal force in their bodies was boundless and endless too.
Meanwhile, the middle sector, the location of the Upper-Life Immortal Tree…
“Latest information! The cultivators of the outer sector had all degenerated, including some of the Earth Immortals in the middle sector…”
The cultivators of the Emperors Ancient Island and the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal Pagoda blurted out.
The expressions of many cultivators shifted upon hearing the words.
There were at least thousands of rogue cultivators in the outermost sector!
“The Great Elder has asked every cultivator below the fifth-layer Heaven Immortal Realm to retreat! Those above the fifth-layer Heaven Immortal Realm shall not go any deeper too!”
A peak Heaven Immortal of the Extreme Living Gate yelled.
Apart from the Extreme Living Gate, the other factions received new instructions too.
Even if some of the factions did not give their disciples new instructions, the cultivators were starting to have a change of mind too.
They were not stupid; the mysterious gate had just shown up, but it had already triggered such an unusual reaction. If something happened again and the force was slightly stronger, they would end up just like the Human Immortals.
Even though the Heaven Immortal Realm was an impressive level among the cultivators that came to this place, it was still nothing against those scarier existences.
“Fall back!”
Most of the Heaven Immortals and Earth Immortals flew away. The rogue cultivators chose to leave too under the enormous sense of danger surging within their hearts.
Only a small portion of them clenched their teeth and stayed put.
Not far away, Zhu Yan and Gu Xiaoyao who were chasing after Qin Nan came to a stop.
“Interesting…so, Gu Xiaoyao, do you dare to go any further?”
Zhu Yan raised his brows.
“If Cultivator Zhu dares to venture deeper, how could I not go too?”
Gu Xiaoyao smiled.
The Heaven Immortals with them soon wore a wry smile. The boldness of these Exceptional Geniuses was surely unmatchable.
Meanwhile, inside the heavenly pit…
Lu Qingyin slowly opened her eyes. Her aura of the Heaven Immortal Realm dissipated as she spoke calmly, “Zhaoming, you will go back with the elders.”
“Lu Zhaoming was startled, “Sister, how about you?”
Lu Qingyin’s eyes surprisingly flickered as she spoke, “The greater the danger, the greater the chance. I must go deeper.”
No matter how cautious of a person she was, she could not afford to back away under the circumstances, unless she knew her death was inevitable.
Lu Zhaoming panicked slightly, “Sister! You’re going into the inner sector, even Peerless Rulers would not be able to survive in there! You have just achieved the Heaven Immortal Realm, if you forced yourself…”
He suddenly froze in the middle of his speech.
Somehow, he suddenly reminded the series of events that took place in the cave, the scene where Qin Nan dominated the scene while he was held hostage by Doom.
He was too weak.
“Sister, I’ll go with you,” Lu Zhaoming said while clenching his teeth.
“You?”
Lu Qingyin and the people of the Tribe of Immortal Spirits were stunned.
This guy known for his arrogance is willing to risk his life?
“Sister…I’ve thought it through, no matter what, I can’t afford to live like this. I should at least give my best so I won’t lose to anyone. I won’t let others trample me so easily!”
Lu Zhaoming wore a determined look.
Lu Qingyin looked at her brother silently. She said after some time, “Very well then…”
She did not seem happy.
If possible, she hoped Lu Zhaoming would not be influenced by external factors for the rest of his life.
