Qin Wentian had no distractions in his heart. Even when Xuan Zhu's tyrannical aura pressed down on him, Qin Wentian didn't sense it at all.
In his consciousness, the boundless runic light coalesced into a single entity, circulating around the Nine Immortality Bell. A terrifying bell chime rang out, causing his body to tremble violently. His consciousness seemed to have entered the Nine Immortality Bell and he saw a blurry space. Faintly, a pair of eyes could be seen staring at him.
At the same time, Qin Wentian also felt a mysterious energy. It felt like at this moment, he could easily cause the Nine Immortality Bell to chime with just a single thought.
However from Xuan Zhu's perspective, Qin Wentian's body was trembling because of the pressure he exuded.
At this moment, the number of people in this space decreased unceasingly. Those who were in the surroundings of the Nine Immortality Bell were chased away by those from the Seven Sword Sect. However, for those truly powerful characters, they still didn't leave. Those from the Seven Sword Sect were also intimidating them.
In such a situation, when Xuan Zhu saw that Qin Wentian was still quietly sitting there, a cold killing intent flickered in his eyes.
"Not knowing the immensity of death." Xuan Zhu coldly spoke.
"Those from the Seven Sword Sect also came to join in the fun?" At this moment, a voice rang out, drifting over together with the chimes of the bell. It was none other than Cheron's voice. It was as though nothing here could escape the eyes of Cheron who was in another dimension.
"Cheron." The icily arrogant female from the Seven Sword Sect inclined her head and stared at the air as her expression turned heavy. She was no longer as arrogant as before. Evidently, Cheron was a character she couldn't ignore. In fact, she had to treat him with great importance.
Jiang Yan was already a Heaven Chosen of the Jiang Clan. But Cheron and Jiang Yan were communicating with the Nine Immortality Bell together. Being able to gain an advantage against Jiang Yan, one could tell how extraordinary Cheron was. Among the younger generations of the Cloud Prefecture, Cheron was quite famous.
Cheron snorted coldly. Xuan Zhu paused for a moment before he continued walking towards Qin Wentian. A powerful aura gushed forth from him as he coldly spoke, "You still haven't scrammed? You truly don't know the immensity of death."
As soon as he finished speaking, his palm slashed towards Qin Wentian's body. In the surroundings, the sword qi was still laughing maniacally. The experts of the Seven Sword Sect were still expelling the others.
At this time, Qin Wentian frowned slightly, seemingly showing a touch of displeasure. His eyelashes trembled.
Abruptly, Qin Wentian's eyes opened. At this instant, Xuan Zhu stared into Qin Wentian's eyes as his mind shuddered violently. The sound of a bell chime rang out in his mind, akin to the melody of the Great Dao.
"BOOM, BOOM!" The terrifying bell chimes rang out unceasingly. It was as though the Nine Immortality Bell had truly awakened, emitting a sound that truly belonged to it.
At this moment, in this vast space, the experts in the surroundings of the Nine Immortality Bell all felt their hearts pounding violently. The chimes of the bell seemed to contain a soul-shaking might, directly resonating in the depths of their hearts, resonating in their souls.
Even the immortal-foundation experts who were spectating from afar had their eyes gleaming with sharpness as their hearts pounded. Was this the manifestation of the Nine Immortality Bell?
"Chi …" Xuan Zhu was the one who suffered the greatest impact. He coughed out a mouthful of blood as his internal organs trembled violently. The bell chimes seemed to be able to penetrate his body, penetrating his soul. He only felt that his brain was about to explode as he directly slumped to the ground. His entire body convulsed as fresh blood flowed unceasingly from the corners of his mouth, dying the ground red.
The aftershock of the bell chimes finally subsided. The light in Qin Wentian's eyes returned to its usual calmness. He casually stood up, but he didn't look at the collapsed Xuan Zhu. Instead, he was staring at the Nine Immortality Bell as a strange light flickered in his eyes.
What secret was hidden within the Nine Immortality Bell exactly?
"Xuan Zhu!" At this moment, the female from the Purple Flame Sect exclaimed in shock upon noticing Xuan Zhu's condition. She walked to his side, only to see that Xuan Zhu was still trembling uncontrollably.
"Xuan Zhu, what happened to you?" The countenance of the female paled, she didn't dare to believe the scene before her eyes. Earlier when the bell chimes rang out, she indeed felt a deep sense of shock. However, it wasn't to the extent where she felt the same way as Xuan Zhu.
She swiftly swept her gaze over the surroundings and discovered that only Xuan Zhu was in such a state. The others all had solemn expressions on their faces as they stared at the Nine Immortality Bell. Even Jiang Yan from the Jiang Clan, the experts from the Seven Sword Sect, as well as Pei Xiao from the Jiangwang Manor all had perplexed looks on their faces. They didn't know where the bell chimes came from.
"Not good." When the female's hand came into contact with Xuan Zhu's body, her countenance instantly turned pale. She discovered that Xuan Zhu's heart meridians had actually been shattered. And indeed, an instant later, Xuan Zhu's body stopped trembling as he stopped breathing. His eyes were still wide open, as though he had died with a grievance.
Even until his death, he didn't know how he died. Was it because of that gaze, or because of the bell chimes?
"It's impossible for the Nine Immortality Bell to chime by itself."
In this silent space, a voice suddenly rang out. Momentarily, the gazes of everyone were attracted over. The person who spoke was none other than Jiang Yan.
"You mean that earlier, someone communicated with the Nine Immortality Bell and activated it?" The eyes of the icily arrogant female from the Seven Sword Sect shot out numerous sharp swords. Her heart pounded violently, the disciples of the Seven Sword Sect had naturally heard of the Nine Immortality Bell before. If there was someone who could activate the Nine Immortality Bell, that person must have already succeeded in communicating with the immortal spirit within the bell. If that was the case, there would be a chance for them to unravel the secrets of the Nine Immortality Bell.
"Yeah, since the Nine Immortality Bell chimed, the person who communicated with it should be among us." Jiang Yan nodded. His eyes stared at the people in this vast space as his sharp gaze swept past each and every one of them. However, he truly had no way to imagine what sort of person would be able to achieve such a feat.
He was a heaven chosen of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Yan. Even he couldn't do it. Who else here could?
Other than him, there seemed to be no one more famous than him here. Those from the Seven Sword Sect were also very powerful, but in terms of their attainments in the martial path, the disparity between them was too great.
Hence, even after Jiang Yan's gaze swept past everyone, he still had no idea who it was. Also, earlier, the Nine Immortality Bell chimed abruptly, there were no signs at all.
"Which heaven chosen is it exactly? Are you all willing to step out?" Jiang Yan asked. However, no one replied. He had no idea who it was.
"Jiang Yan, maybe it's really just an accident and the Nine Immortality Bell has automatically awakened. If not, there wouldn't be anyone here who managed to chime the bell a step earlier than you." Pei Xiao spoke, his tone filled with hints of flattery. Jiang Yan didn't reply, but a look of contemplation could be seen in his eyes.
Could it really be that the Nine Immortality Bell had automatically awakened?
In truth, he felt that given his current attainments, even if he was given more time, he wouldn't be able to cause the Nine Immortality Bell to completely resonate with it in an instant.
He couldn't do it, Cheron from the Wondergate Immortal Manor also couldn't do it. Could there be others here who could do it?
Could it be that his guess was wrong? Was it only the immortal essence of the Nine Immortality Bell?
In the air, whistling sounds rang out. At the side of the Nine Immortality Bell, a silhouette appeared. This person was extremely young and exuded a carefree aura. His gaze was sharp as he swept his gaze over everyone below.
"Cheron!"
Jiang Yan called out, causing everyone to instantly understand that this young man was none other than Cheron, a heaven chosen from the Wondergate Immortal Manor. Earlier, the one who sounded the bell chimes was none other than this young man.
"To think that Cheron is so handsome." The serving girl beside Pei Yu spoke in a low voice, her eyes flashing with astonishment. She initially thought that Cheron was a middle-aged man, she didn't expect him to be such a carefree character.
However right now, Cheron didn't have the mood to care about what the others were thinking. Earlier when the Nine Immortality Bell chimed, it didn't only resonate here, it even caused the other eight bells to resonate with it. Cheron had already formed a connection with one of the bells, hence he could sense it even more deeply. In that instant earlier, it was as though he saw a pair of incomparably lofty eyes that contained a world-shaking brilliance.
He was different from Jiang Yan. Cheron could be sure that earlier, someone must have communicated with the Nine Immortality Bell and that person must be among these people.
In the air, more and more experts appeared. Among them, there was no lack of geniuses from the major powers. All of them were attracted here by the bell chimes. Such resonance wasn't something ordinary people could achieve.
Qin Wentian inclined his head, glancing at the silhouettes that appeared. And at this moment, he saw Cheron's eyes.
The instant Cheron's gaze landed on him, he didn't shift his gaze away. He stared fixedly at Qin Wentian, as though wanting to see through him.
At this moment, the sharpness in Qin Wentian's countenance was retracted, and his demeanor was extremely ordinary. However, Cheron still felt a sense of familiarity. Faintly, he felt that the supreme brilliance he saw earlier originated from this pair of eyes.
"Is it him?" Cheron couldn't be sure. At this moment, Qin Wentian lowered his head and directly shifted his gaze away, as though nothing had happened. This caused Cheron to feel bewildered in his heart, as the bewilderment in his heart grew even more intense.
And at this moment, he saw the corpse lying not far away from Qin Wentian. It was Xuan Zhu's corpse. His eyes flashed with sharpness.
