Qin Wentian watched as Nanfeng Aoxue left, but he still didn't leave. His aura dissipated, but his body didn't shrink in size. He stood there, as though he was thinking for Namhwang Yunxi's sake. After all, the scene behind him was too beautiful.
However at this moment, a scream of misery rang out from behind him, causing Qin Wentian's heart to tremble.
"Don't look at indecent things." Qin Wentian reminded himself, calming his heart. Namhwang Yunxi screamed unceasingly, as though she was enduring immense pain. Seems like her body was undergoing a baptism once again.
During the path of immortal-ascension, her body had already undergone a baptism. This ancestral land of the Namhwang Clan must have some sort of secret art that allowed one to face death and return to life. Most probably, it would allow one's body to undergo another transformation, becoming even stronger.
This process continued for a very long time, but there was still no one who came to disturb the other three paths. Most probably, Nanfeng Aoxue and her companions also encountered powerful obstructions on the other two paths.
"She should be finished, right?" Qin Wentian silently mused. He turned his head back only to see that Namhwang Yunxi's body was now even more flawless than before. Her jade-white skin was tinged with a hint of redness, and her black hair fluttered in the wind. Such a scene would cause one to linger on for a long time.
"I didn't do it on purpose." Qin Wentian spoke to himself, hurriedly turning his head back. He told himself that he was only worried about Namhwang Yunxi's safety and didn't have any intentions of profanity. He, Qin Wentian, wasn't a lecherous person...
After a long time, a light voice drifted over. Namhwang Yunxi spoke in a soft voice, "Done."
Qin Wentian let out a breath, as though he was extremely nervous earlier. His body shrank and he turned his head back only to see that Namhwang Yunxi had donned a beautiful phoenix feather robe, looking flawless. Upon seeing Namhwang Yunxi's gaze, Qin Wentian felt a little guilty. He hurriedly asked, "Can we continue forward?"
"The road ahead will require the protection of my body. Come with me." Namhwang Yunxi spoke in a light voice. As for the other two paths, Nanfeng Shengge and Nanfeng Qingruo each opened up a path that led into the distance.
Kong Ye, Jiang Ziyu and the others entered. Nanfeng Aoxue, Nanfeng Xihua and the other holy maidens also entered. When they saw the scene before them, expressions of disappointment could be seen on their faces. Had things ended already?
"How should we proceed ahead?" Nanfeng Aoxue asked.
"Big Sis Ao Xue, you all no longer have a chance. Only the three of us can continue on this path. If anyone else wants to enter, they will need to use our bodies to protect them." Nanfeng Shengge gently spoke. Nanfeng Aoxue's eyes flickered with reluctance. She coldly glanced at Qin Wentian. If it wasn't for Qin Wentian, she wouldn't have failed.
"How do we go there?" Kong Ye asked Nanfeng Shengge.
"How about we each bring one person with us?" Nanfeng Qingruo stared at Nanfeng Shengge and Namhwang Yunxi.
"Right." Nanfeng Shengge nodded lightly.
"Mhm." Namhwang Yunxi also nodded in agreement.
"Jiang Ziyu." Nanfeng Qingruo stared at Jiang Ziyu, Nanfeng Shengge stared at Kong Ye, while Namhwang Yunxi's beautiful eyes landed on Qin Wentian.
"Mengchen, Purgatory, wait for me here." Qin Wentian turned his head and spoke to Jun Mengchen and Purgatory. The two of them nodded, they had no objections.
"Senior brother, you have to be careful. These two are extremely powerful." Jun Mengchen transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian naturally knew that Jun Mengchen was referring to Kong Ye and Jiang Ziyu. Earlier, after Nanfeng Aoxue exited the Nirvana Ancient Path, she must have tried to break through the other two paths. However, he didn't see her entering the Nirvana Path. From this, one could see how powerful the obstructions were.
"Right." Qin Wentian replied. Since Jun Mengchen reminded him, these two must be extremely powerful.
Qin Wentian walked towards Namhwang Yunxi. Namhwang Yunxi spread her wings and spoke to Qin Wentian, "Come in front of me."
"Mhm." Qin Wentian walked forward. Namhwang Yunxi folded her wings as she spoke in a low voice, "Hold my hand."
Qin Wentian grabbed Namhwang Yunxi's arm. Namhwang Yunxi was staring ahead, there was no abnormality in her expression.
With a flap of her wings, the two of them soared into the air. Namhwang Yunxi's silhouette flickered as she flew forward like a bolt of lightning. She closed her wings, enveloping herself and Qin Wentian within as they sped into the Nirvana Path. Not only her, Nanfeng Shengge and Nanfeng Qingruo also brought their protectors and sped forward.
"Purgatory, don't you feel that senior brother Qin is very fortunate?" Jun Mengchen stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke to Purgatory beside him. Purgatory glared at him, "Big brother Qin is doing this because he wants to help Namhwang Yunxi obtain the position of the Holy Successor. He doesn't have the same thoughts as you."
"I'm just saying." Jun Mengchen scratched his head, staring at this beautiful lass Purgatory who treated his senior brother so well. The more he looked at her, the more he felt that Qin Wentian was blessed.
"What are you looking at?" Purgatory's tone was unkind. Jun Mengchen hurriedly averted his gaze, "No, I'm not looking."
A powerful aura descended. Nanfeng Aoxue and Zong Zhan floated in the air, staring at Jun Mengchen and the others. Jun Mengchen's eyes flashed as he spoke, "Nanfeng Aoxue, you are the Holy Maiden of the Namhwang Clan. The competition for the position of Holy Successor should be fair. If you are defeated, so be it. Don't be so petty, right?"
"Hmph." Nanfeng Aoxue coldly snorted and flicked her sleeves as she departed. She had waited for tens of years, yet her hope was shattered just like that.
"What are you looking at? What Heaven Warring Condor? Let's fight after we exit the ancestral lands." Jun Mengchen glared at Zong Zhan as he taunted.
"Just you wait." Zong Zhan coldly spoke.
At this moment, Qin Wentian and the others had already arrived at the next level. This place was even more resplendent. Ahead of them, there was an incomparably gigantic parasol tree that spiraled up into the sky. Above it, resplendent rays of auspicious light could be seen. Countless parasol leaves fluttered in the air, weaving together to form a dream-like scene.
"A phoenix perches on the parasol tree." Qin Wentian walked out from the protection of Nanfeng Yunxi's wings. He stood beside Nanfeng Yunxi as he inclined his head and stared at the sky. Ahead of him, there was an ancient parasol tree that towered into the sky. Above it, an auspicious glow could be seen, and the silhouette of a phoenix could be faintly seen.
"In this ancestral land, could there be a powerful saint beast phoenix?" Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice.
Qin Wentian was thinking that if the ancestral land of the Namhwang Clan was a phoenix, and this phoenix was the same age as the Namhwang Clan. How ancient would it be? If this was true, it would definitely be a supremely powerful saint beast.
"I can't go up?" Just when Qin Wentian wanted to soar into the air, he discovered that a formless law energy was pressing down on him, causing him to be unable to fly up.
"These parasol leaves are the bridge that leads to the void." Namhwang Yunxi spoke to Qin Wentian. She stared at the parasol leaves fluttering unceasingly in the air as her immortal sense permeated them. All of a sudden, she spat out a rune. This rune was one that Qin Wentian had never heard of before. In an instant, a parasol leaf floated before her, transforming into a flight of stairs. Namhwang Yunxi walked up and as expected, she took a step into the void.
"How mystical." Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. This parasol leaf was extremely large and the flight of stairs they formed could accommodate several people. He walked to the side of Namhwang Yunxi and didn't continue to disturb her. He knew that this was a crucial moment. He only needed to protect Namhwang Yunxi well.
Nanfeng Shengge and Nanfeng Qingruo, the two holy maidens, also spat out strange runes, unceasingly forming a flight of stairs. Three ancient parasol paths gradually appeared in the air, exuding a resplendent magnificence, connecting to the sky as they moved towards the peak of the gigantic parasol tree.
Nanfeng Shengge was in the middle, Nanfeng Qingruo was on the left, and Namhwang Yunxi was on the right. This position was extremely disadvantageous to Nanfeng Shengge.
However, as the three of them formed the flight of stairs, Nanfeng Qingruo seemed to be slightly slower. Namhwang Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge advanced side by side, advancing at the same pace.
Upon seeing this scene, a smile appeared on Kong Ye's face. Seems like Nanfeng Shengge and Namhwang Yunxi's comprehension of the parasol leaves was a level higher. Nanfeng Qingruo was most probably at a disadvantage now. As they continued ascending, the distance between them gradually increased. Namhwang Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge were still advancing side by side, almost at the same pace.
Kong Ye's eyes flashed as he stared in the direction of Namhwang Yunxi. Qin Wentian glanced over and stared at him, "For the final battle, I feel that it's better to leave it to the three holy maidens of the Namhwang Clan. We only need to protect them and not allow them to be disturbed."
"Victory is already in my grasp, why should I give way?" Kong Ye stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke, his words causing Qin Wentian's eyes to flicker as he stared at Kong Ye.
This Kong Ye was so confident. He said that victory is already in his grasp. Does this mean that he would be able to defeat Qin Wentian for sure and expel Namhwang Yunxi, allowing Nanfeng Shengge to obtain the inheritance?
"If you are defeated, as a protector, wouldn't you implicate Holy Maiden Nanfeng Shengge?" Qin Wentian counter-asked.
"Since I'm a protector, I will naturally fight for her." Kong Ye calmly spoke. "In addition, I won't be defeated."
"Nanfeng Aoxue also believes that she will definitely obtain the inheritance but she hasn't even reached this point. Overconfidence is simply arrogance and ignorance." Qin Wentian spoke. The two of them clashed with each other.
Kong Ye's aura gushed forth, he no longer spoke. From the looks of things, Nanfeng Qingruo was at a disadvantage while Namhwang Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge advanced steadily. From Kong Ye's perspective, as long as he defeated Namhwang Yunxi's protector, Qin Wentian, he would be able to stop Namhwang Yunxi from advancing further. Nanfeng Shengge would become the Holy Successor. How could Kong Ye miss out on such an opportunity?
Qin Wentian released his immortal-foundation might when he saw this scene. Since Kong Ye wants to fight, he would fight then.
"Bzz!" An incomparably dazzling light suddenly blossomed from Kong Ye's body like a peacock spreading its tail. This peacock spread its tail and shot out a seven-colored immortal light. In an instant, everyone's vision became blurry.
Qin Wentian closed his eyes. Seems like this Kong Ye had a demonic beast bloodline.
Indeed, Kong Ye's father was a human expert while his mother was a peacock demon king.
Many immortal seals blasted out from the body of the peacock, attacking with lightning speed while Qin Wentian was in a daze.
Qin Wentian's immortal-foundation frenziedly gushed forth as immortal light circulated around him. The Shadow of the Divine Turtle protected him as the immortal seals blasted out, shattering the defenses of the turtle. Qin Wentian's immortal sense enveloped this entire space. Even if he didn't open his eyes and only used his immortal sense to observe, when he stared at the peacock Shadow, under the illumination of the multicolored light, Qin Wentian still felt his vision turning blurry. Jun Mengchen reminded him to be careful of Kong Ye and Jiang Ziyu. Both of them were truly powerful characters.
Kong Ye's confidence originated from his overwhelming strength.
"Since victory is assured, why should I give way to you?" Kong Ye's voice drifted over. Dazzling seven-colored light circulated around him. With a wave of his hand, a gigantic peacock manifested, bringing with it many ancient immortal seals as it blasted out, wanting to destroy everything.
After defeating Qin Wentian, Nanfeng Shengge would become the Holy Successor.
