"Underworld Mountain." The geniuses instantly discovered that this was the true Underworld Mountain. In a short period of time, they could also feel the energy in their bodies slowly dissipating.
Hua Taixu's samsara eyes appeared. He stared at this illusory space, wanting to see through it with his own eyes. However, even with his samsara eyes, he could only see a ball of fog. How could he be able to see through the secrets of the Underworld Mountain?
"Namhwang Yunxi, you're here." At this moment, a silhouette flickered, appearing before Namhwang Yunxi. The eyes of this young man gleamed with a demonic light. His forehead and nose bridge were extremely tall, different from ordinary humans. However, his eyes were extremely sharp, and when he swept his gaze over the crowd, traces of baleful qi could be seen.
"Demonic qi, this person is a demon." Qin Wentian could sense that this person was a demon. Ordinary humans wouldn't dare to get so close to Namhwang Yunxi. Qin Wentian searched through his memories and instantly thought of a person on the Immortal Ascension Rankings.
Zhan Peng, ranked # 7 on the Immortal Ascension Rankings. His true form was a demonic bird.
"What's the matter?" Namhwang Yunxi glanced at Zhan Peng as she asked.
"Why are you hanging out with these mortals? Follow me and roam the Underworld Mountain together," Zhan Peng spoke to Namhwang Yunxi. "You and I are the most suitable pair to be together."
The surrounding people all had expressions of interest on their faces. This was especially so for Zhan Peng. He actually said that Qing 'er and Qin Wentian were mortals. Could it be that he didn't know that Princess Qing' er was ranked above him? And Qin Wentian had also defeated Xiao Lengyue who was ranked above him?
However, this Zhan Peng had always been stubborn and arrogant, doing whatever he wanted.
Zhan Peng was a bird, an extremely common bird species. He had the noble bloodline of Namhwang Yunxi, but his heart was higher than the heavens. He wholeheartedly wished to cut down the monarch of the skies, the Roc God Bird, and replace him. He had always believed that only Namhwang Yunxi's Ancient Phoenix bloodline was worthy of him, and that she should be with him.
There was once someone who joked that Zhan Peng was a chicken begging for a phoenix, that he really didn't know the immensity of the heavens and earth. However, the person who said this was cruelly slaughtered by Zhan Peng. Everyone only dared to mock him in their hearts, but no one dared to underestimate Zhan Peng's strength.
"Scram." Namhwang Yunxi said coldly, looking at Zhan Peng with disdain. This Zhan Peng was just a bird-type demonic beast, yet he always thought that he was incomparably noble, causing others to feel disgusted.
"Zhan Peng, how could the princess of the Namhwang clan like you? You'd better come over and form an alliance with me. Otherwise, you won't even know what's going on when you suffer a loss." Not far away, a person called out. The person who spoke was emaciated, and gave off a sinister feeling. Some geniuses instantly recognized this person, it was none other than the # 8 ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings, Bone Devil.
Beside Bone Devil stood an ordinary-looking woman, yet her demeanor was extraordinary. Her eyes were sharp as she stared at Namhwang Yunxi and Qing 'er. Not only were these two supreme beauties, their rankings were also near the top. This Zhan Peng truly didn't know the immensity of the heavens and earth. Most probably, he still didn't know that this group of people wasn't someone he could afford to antagonize.
"Seems like Bone Devil has formed an alliance with Xu Ruxue, and there's also Kun Nu. What a powerful lineup." The crowd was speechless when they saw the three of them. Behind Xu Ruxue stood a bald monk, it was none other than Kun Nu.
These three were ranked # 8, # 9 and # 10 respectively. Since all of them had arrived, it seemed like the news of the Brahma Heavenly Emperor's ruins had drawn everyone here.
Elites formed alliances with other elites, while the other geniuses formed alliances with each other.
"Shut up." Zhan Peng coldly glanced at Bone Devil. He then turned to Namhwang Yunxi and spoke, "I was born extraordinary, I'm destined to become the sovereign of the skies in the immortal realms. Namhwang Yunxi, you possess the bloodline of the ancient phoenix, we are a match made in heaven."
The surrounding geniuses wanted to laugh, yet they didn't dare to. This Zhan Peng's stubbornness was something he had inherited from his father. This stubbornness also allowed his father to cultivate from an ordinary bird into a demon emperor. Few people dared to antagonize him, and he could be considered a legend in the immortal realms.
Demonic beasts were different from humans. Stellar martial cultivators depended on their hard work and luck to grow stronger. Their comprehension abilities might also grow stronger with time. However, the talent of demonic beasts was already determined from the moment they were born. A divine bird would always be a divine bird. No matter how much an ordinary bird cultivated, it would still be hard for them to achieve anything.
Qin Wentian also felt that something was strange, but he was also silently impressed by Zhan Peng's self-confidence and stubbornness. Such stubbornness would often lead to achievements that ordinary people couldn't achieve. From the depths of his heart, he felt that Namhwang Yunxi was a match made in heaven with him.
"I told you to scram." Namhwang Yunxi's countenance turned even colder as a cold intent gushed forth from her. This Zhan Peng actually dared to say that they were a match made in heaven?
"Namhwang Yunxi, if we were to be together, we would surely become a legend." Zhan Peng's stubbornness had far surpassed Qin Wentian's imagination. In fact, it even caused him to feel some disgust. This was especially so since Namhwang Yunxi was after all a woman, and a woman with a noble bloodline. Zhan Peng even said that he wanted to be together with her...
"BOOM!" A terrifying aura gushed forth, Namhwang Yunxi was truly angered. This caused Zhan Peng's expression to flicker. Although he was stubborn, he also knew that it was impossible for him to defeat the # 3 ranker Namhwang Yunxi. He could only reply, "Since you still haven't thought things through, you can take your time to consider my words. I'll take my leave first."
After speaking, Zhan Peng's silhouette flickered as he sped away. Namhwang Yunxi's aura gradually retracted, but a cold light still flickered in her eyes.
"This man is truly interesting," Jun Mengchen spoke in a low voice.
"His original form is that of a bird, and his personality is extremely stubborn. If I didn't know that this was his nature, I would definitely not spare him." Namhwang Yunxi coldly spoke, her words causing Qin Wentian's eyes to flicker. He smiled and glanced at Namhwang Yunxi who was beside him. "Who would have thought that the cold and arrogant princess of the Namhwang Clan would actually have such a kind heart."
Namhwang Yunxi's beautiful eyes flashed as she stared at Qin Wentian in bewilderment. No one had ever said such things about her before. Maybe it was because of her cold and arrogant personality that no one could get close to, and no one had truly understood her.
"Let's go, many people have already gone there." Qin Wentian turned his gaze towards the direction of the blood-colored mountain rampart. Over there, a figure could be seen standing. This figure was none other than the # 1 ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings, Zi Daoyang.
"Bzz!" A figure dashed towards the mountain rampart, but was instantly blasted out. This figure was none other than Zhan Peng. His body slumped to the ground as his countenance turned ashen.
"It's impossible to pass through this passageway," Zhan Peng stated. "There must be another path to take."
Zi Daoyang didn't say anything, he continued staring ahead. He was contemplating where he was now. If he managed to pass through this passageway, how did he do it?
Could it be that he relied on his incomparably tyrannical and indestructible physique to pass through?
Zi Daoyang mused in his heart. That ruthless person might really dare to do so, disregarding everything.
If one couldn't withstand the pressure of the blood-colored mountain rampart, only death would await them. Ordinary people wouldn't even dare to barge in.
"It's very difficult to pass through with the strength of a single person, but it's a piece of cake for many people. These blood-colored runes are actually different types of innate techniques. Each of you can comprehend one of them and release your will at the same time, and you'll be able to pass through." An unhurried voice drifted out from the crowd. Everyone turned their gazes to the left and right, yet they couldn't find the person who had spoken. This caused a strange feeling to appear in their hearts.
Could it be that there were other existences within the Underworld Mountains?
"In other words, if there's someone who comprehended all the runic inscriptions on this mountain rampart, they would be able to traverse it in an instant," Zi Daoyang calmly spoke, his eyes gleaming with sharpness. Was that Ruthless able to accomplish this?
But if that was the case, a lot of time would be wasted. The Underworld Mountains could absorb energy from a person's body. Unless one could resist against it, this method would undoubtedly be a foolish one.
"Yes, if you want to do this, no one will stop you." That Cold voice drifted out once more. Zi Daoyang laughed heartily, "Who are you, hiding your head but showing your tail?"
No one replied. That voice was like a pebble sinking into the ocean.
Zi Daoyang's gaze turned to the crowd as he spoke, "Everyone, please choose a type of rune to comprehend. We can only gather the strength of all the geniuses and dispel it within a short period of time."
"Right." The geniuses nodded. Luckily, there were enough geniuses who had entered the Underworld Mountains this time around. It shouldn't be a problem for them to comprehend these runes.
"Let's try to comprehend them as well," Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice. He really had no idea how Little Rascal had managed to pass through.
Only to see Qin Wentian closing his eyes as his perception gushed out, gushing towards the blood-colored runic mountain rampart. Instantly, a multitude of energies condensed and manifested, gushing towards him. Qin Wentian's perception directly locked onto one of the energies as he started to comprehend the true intent within.
The experts all closed their eyes to comprehend, guarding their hearts and minds. Gradually, the runic inscriptions on the blood-colored mountain rampart dimmed. The more people there were, the more power they could muster. An hour later, the entire mountain rampart fell silent. Zi Daoyang opened his eyes and stepped out. The others followed closely behind him, passing through the passageway of the mountain rampart.
When Qin Wentian walked through the passageway, his fingers touched the rampart as he felt a sense of wonder in his heart. What kind of person had created this?
Before his eyes, there was a feeling of enlightenment. The terrain seemed to be even more vast than before. The gazes of the geniuses all trembled as they stared ahead. There seemed to be two completely different colors. One of them was dark and gloomy, like the netherworld, like a land of darkness and devils, exuding a tyrannical aura.
The other side was the complete opposite. A brilliant light illuminated the skies, expelling all darkness. The aura it exuded was incomparably pure, like the aura of an emperor in the mortal world.
These two completely opposite auras coexisted, as though they had been in a stalemate for countless years.
"Bzz." At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared. This figure was clad in gray, and just by standing there casually, he gave off a feeling of unexcelled in the world.
"Wait, we can't enter like this …" A voice rang out from his mouth. He opened his eyes and stared at the crowd. His eyes were empty, like the eyes of a dead person. However, just a single glance from him caused everyone to sink into the depths of his eyes. It was like the might of the heavens, as though he could kill them with a single glance.
"Bzz." A gust of wind gusted by as the figure directly appeared before Zi Daoyang. "You guys have violated the rules."
"Senior …" Zi Daoyang wanted to speak, but he only saw the figure stretching out his hand. His movements were so fast that even the naked eye couldn't see them clearly. In the blink of an eye, Zi Daoyang was grabbed by the neck and lifted into the air. This scene caused the hearts of everyone to tremble, and they felt as though they were about to stop breathing!
