Qin Wentian suddenly spoke. He wasn't acquainted with this old man and he didn't know the other people who entered the forbidden ground. Everyone chose to enter the forbidden ground on their own and they should be responsible for their own choices. There was no need for him to say anything but right now, only the two of them were left alive. He still felt somewhat sorrowful and hoped that this old man would be able to live on. Hence, he couldn't help but to persuade him.
"Seems like Elder Brother Qin, you don't understand much about the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom. Who in the immortal dynasty doesn't know of Princess Youhuang? Hence, Pei Qing has been announcing to the outside world that he wants to woo Princess Kitamura and marry her." The two of them chatted casually as they advanced, as though they were trying to ease the tension in their hearts. After all, so many people had entered the forbidden ground and now, only the two of them were still alive. In addition, Pei Qing also said earlier that there was no clear path, only death.
"Before this, I was stared at by the zombies and couldn't even release a trace of my aura. But in truth, if it wasn't for that situation, as long as I had some time, I might have a chance to escape. Hence, even if we meet with danger later on, I might still have a chance to survive. However, because of the oath made by my sect, I can't bring old sir along. Hence, old sir doesn't have to make the same choice as me. Just like what old sir said before, you can cultivate here and maybe break through to the immortal king realm before you meet with danger."
"I'm already very fortunate to be able to reach this point. I don't have too much hope, it's been so many years since I took that final step. If I die here, it's also my fate. However, before we enter, can I ask you who you are exactly? Why would Princess Nongyue and the Saint Child of the Hundred Refinements Sect hold you in such high regard? I've always been curious."
Qin Wentian walked up and stared at the wordless stone tablets that exuded an ancient aura.
Qin Wentian changed his direction once more. As he continued forward, he saw too many strange phenomena. He saw many terrifying divine weapons that weren't something he could touch. He also saw many zombies, and all of them had their own sentiments and attachments.
With a smile, he didn't say anything and continued walking forward.
Qin Wentian walked forward step by step, moving towards the baleful aura. When the baleful aura grew stronger and stronger, the terrifying law energy seemed to be able to tear everything apart. His footsteps slowed as he stared ahead. There were still dark clouds but within the dark clouds, a supreme cold light could be seen, illuminating this entire patch of dark clouds.
"Shall we go in?" the old man asked, looking at Qin Wentian.
Some of the stone steles had already shattered, turning into rubble that scattered everywhere. There were also some stone steles that were split down the middle, and deep pits could be seen at the bottom of the steles.
"Old mister." Qin Wentian called out again. The old man halted and turned his head to look at Qin Wentian.
Changing his direction, Qin Wentian left this place and continued to walk through the dark clouds. He could sense the boundless destructive qi, and he quietly sensed it as he walked towards the source. After that, he saw a zombie sitting on the ground, hugging onto a white robe. This robe seemed to belong to a female. Although this zombie had been dead for countless years, it was still filled with attachment to the owner of this robe.
"There's someone there." All of a sudden, Qin Wentian saw a human silhouette beside the broken saber. It was a zombie, and his head was severed in half. Qin Wentian drew in a breath of cold air and instantly retracted his aura. That silhouette stared in his direction, as though it had eyes and knew of his existence. However, it didn't move, it merely circled around the saber, exuding a deep sense of attachment.
"Naturally, I don't even know how long the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom has existed. The number one expert in history, how can he not be strong? Also, the number one expert in history is at the immortal emperor realm. There's no one in the past, but I don't dare to say that there won't be someone like him in the future. Everyone in the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom knows that there's a person who has the chance to surpass him, but I don't know if that person would be able to do so or not." The old man spoke.
"Why do I feel that this Immortal Law Mountain is like an ancient battlefield? Regardless of the palm imprint or the stone monument, there seemed to be an incomparably great battle that flattened everything. The city was reduced to ashes, leaving only the uneven ground. But as time passed, this place became a desolate mountain range." Qin Wentian mumbled.
"Old sir." Qin Wentian called out. No one replied.
Many geniuses with unparalleled talent died midway or met with a bottleneck. But Pei Qing had already reached the immortal emperor realm. No one dared to doubt him anymore. Everyone in the world knew of him.
The aura of destruction emanated from her robes. It was unknown how many terrifying destructive attacks she had endured when she was alive.
"Beiming Nongyue?" Qin Wentian felt somewhat bewildered.
"So, I choose to enter. Old sir, you should choose according to your heart as well." Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice. He wouldn't try to persuade others to enter with him. This was his choice, not the choice of others. Everyone should have their own choices and they need to be responsible for their own choices.
"He is the owner of the saber?" Qin Wentian's heart trembled. He was already a dead man, how could he still be alive?
The aura of slaughter, the aura of destruction, the aura of death … However, amidst this aura of despair, he actually sensed a trace of life. It was like he had been saved from death's door.
"Brother Qin, take care of yourself. Live well." From the dark clouds, a voice rang out. It was the voice of the old man. He had left, he wanted to barge in alone.
Qin Wentian nodded lightly. "Our purpose in entering the forbidden ground is to search for an opportunity. But after we entered, our purpose is to survive. How sad."
"I don't know. In any case, there's something strange about this place." Qin Wentian continued walking forward. "That Pei Qing is an immortal emperor. Even an immortal emperor came here to explore. From this, one can see that there's definitely a shocking secret in this mountain range. If not, like what you said, as the person who broke through to the immortal emperor realm the fastest in the history of the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom, there's no need for him to come here."
"My name is Qin Wentian, I come from an emperor-ranked power in the Eastern Regions. Beiming Nongyue and Li Yufeng treated me as a good friend because back then when the Tiandao Sacred Academy opened, we got to know each other. At that time, Li Yufeng ascended to the Supreme Might Rankings and was replaced by me. Maybe, he started to pay attention to me at that moment. In the Sacred Academy, I caused quite a commotion and fought against the juniors of several major powers, causing waves of commotion. This is what happened, there's nothing special about it."
The eyes of the old man flashed. He turned his head back and stared at Qin Wentian in bewilderment. As expected of someone from a major power, he actually still had life-saving methods in this forbidden ground.
"That's true." Qin Wentian nodded. This was the number one character in history. As long as there was no hatred between them, they would naturally be on good terms with him.
"The danger is unpredictable. Who knows when those zombies would suddenly appear? It's also very dangerous to stay here." Qin Wentian shook his head. He didn't like to passively wait. He chose to continue forward. Although there were many dangers, as long as there's the slightest chance, he would continue forward. In addition, he still had a trump card.
"Princess Kitamura is so powerful?" Qin Wentian was somewhat surprised.
"This place seems to be safer. Actually, Brother Qin, we still have another path. Let's stay here." The old man spoke.
"Your highness."
"What a powerful baleful aura." At this moment, the eyes of the two of them flashed. They continued forward, arriving at the edge of the mountain and stared at the gigantic canyon ahead. Over there, a layer of dark clouds could be seen. Despite the passage of countless years, the dark clouds still didn't dissipate. It was like there were dead souls from an ancient battlefield here. The baleful aura originated from there.
Qin Wentian mused that if it was really like what he had guessed, this place must be an ancient battlefield. How many experts were buried here? This number was simply too terrifying. Qin Wentian couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"You call this nothing special?" The old man was speechless. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. After that, he continued forward.
"Naturally not. Princess Nongyue is only at the immortal-foundation realm, how would I be able to tell? Also, Princess Nongyue's chances are very slim. It's her elder sister, Princess Kitamura. She's known as the number one beauty of our Hokage Sengoku Kingdom, a supreme empress. It's rumored that in the future, the throne of the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom wouldn't be passed down to the emperor's son but to Princess Kitamura instead. There are so many sons and daughters of the emperor, but none of them can be compared to her.
"Pei Qing has always been incomparably arrogant. If it wasn't for the fact that this place is extraordinary, he wouldn't have come here." The old man nodded. Although he wasn't acquainted with Pei Qing, he had heard too many rumors about him in the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom. Pei Qing was a legendary character, a true supreme genius.
That was a saber, a broken saber. Only half of the saber remained. But even though it was only half a saber, it still shone with a resplendent light.
Qin Wentian sighed. After that, he walked forward as well. He finally sensed the aura of law energy, an extremely powerful one. Also, this time around, it wasn't just a single law, but an incomparably chaotic law energy.
"It's precisely because he is too arrogant, he can't tolerate others offending him. That sentence earlier, if it was an ordinary immortal king, he would most probably help and get acquainted with Princess Nongyue. But he is Pei Qing, hence, he felt that those words had offended his pride. Indeed, he doesn't need to care about Princess Nongyue's feelings. After all, as the number one character in history, he would at the very least become a peak-stage immortal emperor in the future and even has the chance to break through to that level.
"This Pei Qing is truly arrogant. But since he wants to marry Princess Kitamura, why did he kill Beiming Nongyue just because of that sentence?"
Qin Wentian tried walking away. As expected, that living corpse didn't care about him. It was like even after he died, that living corpse still had an undying longing for the saber.
"If this is really a battlefield, and this place is really the tombstone of ancient times, what are these pits for? Could it be those living corpses? " The countenance of the old man changed. If it was those living corpses, things would truly be too terrifying. Burying the dead here and they could actually revive?
What place was this exactly?
"Who is it?" Qin Wentian's eyes flashed.
Qin Wentian sighed. He stepped out, entering the canyon that was shrouded in dark clouds. Very swiftly, he discovered that the old man in front of him could no longer be seen.
"Is Pei Qing really so powerful?" Qin Wentian curiously asked, feeling somewhat unhappy with Pei Qing. Although he knew that as an immortal emperor, no one would dare to say anything if Pei Qing trampled an immortal-foundation expert to death, he was still very unhappy despite the fact that there was still an insurmountable disparity between him and Pei Qing.
"Yeah, you don't have any real experience and always feel that you're lucky. Now that you've entered this place, you've already forgotten why you came here." The old man laughed.
