1221: C1221 Land of death

C1221 Land of death

In front of him was the place that was covered by that aura?

Qin Shaojie stopped and slightly narrowed his eyes as well, looking towards a place a hundred kilometers away. Above him, there were black clouds that covered the sky, as if the entire area was covered in pitch-black clouds, and the sun's rays were completely covered by the clouds, making it impossible for them to pour down.

Although they were already prepared, the three of them could not help but take in a deep breath when they saw that the black clouds were snaking endlessly.

They had traveled from the demon's base camp all the way here. However, they discovered that there was no one several hundred miles away from the place where the aura was supposed to cover.

Even some of the cities had become empty cities. In the words of the devil masters, they had not seen any trace of human life. Even in the regions temporarily occupied by the demons, large numbers of humans could be seen toiling and living, but this place was different. This was because in the demon territory, these humans were able to live a normal life, and even lacked some of the oppressive feeling they once had. However, within several hundred miles of the area covered by the aura, everyone had completely retreated.

Once the Qi spread, even if these people wanted to live, it would be impossible. Even the strong experts of the Spirit Stage and Sky Origin Stage would be entangled by the Qi and die, let alone the common citizens like them.

Not only humans, but even the demons were nowhere to be seen. In such a large territory, the demons didn't want to occupy it. On the contrary, they felt that it was too late to avoid it. Other than that, the rest of the beasts seemed to have sensed the great danger that was lurking in this place and had fled for their lives.

The surrounding deathly silence was filled with everything. Even though they had yet to step into this area covered in a strange aura, it still caused them to feel an uncomfortable feeling from the bottom of their hearts.

He hadn't noticed anything out of the ordinary yet, but he still had to be careful.

Jin Feier nodded, she gazed at the land in front of her that was covered by black clouds, her face did not have much worry. Right now, the three of them were all from Second Order Saint, and each one of them was an existence that was extremely tyrannical at the same level. There weren't many existences in the Between the Heavens and the Earth that could pose a threat to them.

As for what exactly was inside, they would probably find out once they entered.

After the two of you enter this place, carefully feel the aura. See if you can detect a familiar or familiar feeling. Qin Shaojie said in a low voice after returning to his senses.

Brother, now you should tell us the real purpose of this visit, right?

Suddenly, Bi Meng's eyes turned and looked at Qin Shaojie as he asked seriously. Ever since he came out of Nine Peaks Tower, he knew that this mission was extremely important, if not Qin Shaojie would not have brought them here. Although this aura was strange, to be able to alarm the three of them to attack at the same time meant that it was definitely not simple.

Hydra! I suspect that this aura has something to do with the Hydra.

At this time, Qin Shaojie did not hide anything and asked directly. However, when he said the Nine-headed Snake, Bi Meng and Jin Feier's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of pinholes.

Back then, Qin Shaojie had also asked Bi Meng about the Nine-headed Snake, but unfortunately, Bi Meng didn't know anything about it. After all, the Bi Meng from back then had always lived in the Nine Regions of the Forest of Demons, and his strength could not be considered strong, but when he transformed into his soul, he was subdued by the nine deficiency. But he had never heard of anything related to the Nine-headed Snake from the mouth of nine deficiency. But there was one thing that he was sure of, and that was that if the Nine-headed Snake could make Qin Shaojie pay attention to it, and even form some sort of connection with its nine deficiency, it would not be simple at all.

As for Jin Feier, she was even more surprised. Back then, she had indeed told the Nine-headed Snake about the nine deficiency and stated clearly the close relationship between the Nine-headed Snake and the three sects. Other than that, she did not manage to find any other clues. However, Qin Shaojie saying that this Nine-headed Snake had some relation to the Qi in front of her eyes made her cautious.

To be able to be associated with nine deficiency of the same generation as well as the first three great sect masters, just this one point was enough to prove that if this Nine-headed Snake really existed and was still alive, it was likely already excessively powerful.

The two of you have both lived with Senior nine deficiency for a very long time, so you were also the last people who could possibly sense that aura or that feeling.

Qin Shaojie did not hide anything, his main purpose for coming here was to investigate the relationship between the Nine-headed Snake and this aura.

In Qin Shaojie's heart, he had long since been certain that this Nine-headed Snake was the key core of the entire Tian Yuan Continent. If the matter regarding the Nine-headed Snake were to get out of control, then whether it was the Nine Peaks Tower or the demons, they would definitely face a true calamity.

What a rich corrosive force!

When the three of them truly appeared under the clouds, which was also the so-called aura covered area, their eyes also flickered slightly.

In this place, it was almost impossible to sense the light in the sky. The dense black clouds caused all the sunlight to reflect back and it was difficult to see where the light would penetrate. The darkness that surrounded them gave off an extremely oppressive feeling.

The most important thing was that after entering this place, the surrounding air would contain an extremely strong corrosive force. The corrosive power was not only aimed at the body but also at the Sky and Earth mystical Qi. No wonder Demonshine had previously said that ordinary people were simply unable to persevere in this place. Without mentioning anything else, this corrosive power was able to completely devour an ordinary person within an extremely short period of time. Even some powerful warriors could only barely guarantee their own safety by protecting themselves with the power of mystical Qi.

It was a pity that their Xuan Qi was constantly being consumed here. Once most of their Xuan Qi was consumed, these so-called powerful warriors would be in great danger. This was also the reason why the experts of the Nether Realm's Domain Palace could only probe the exterior of this aura covered land. This was also the core reason why they did not dare to truly enter deeper.

This was because it was simply too difficult for their profound strength to endure to the depths, so even if they could, it would probably be very difficult for them to return.

This meant that there was a slim chance of survival!

Unless it was absolutely necessary, no one really wanted to try something so risky.

Of course, if one's physical body was strong enough, it would be able to mitigate or even defend against the corrosive power. At this time, Qin Shaojie was trying to restrain his profound energy, and using his own body to resist it alone. Soon after, the corrosive aura around him seemed to have swarmed in like a swarm, and completely wrapped around Qin Shaojie's body in an instant. Under such a situation, he only felt as if countless ants were tearing at his flesh, and the excruciating pain spread out from his four limbs' faces.2

The good thing was that Qin Shaojie's body was strong enough. He had relied on his body's power to stay at an advantageous position in the Martial Dao, and later on, he even absorbed the dragon's blood essence. He then went through various tempering processes, and under such circumstances, the body of the Second Order Saint was even stronger than the bodies of the other Third-rank Saints s.

This kind of tyrannical power, under the protection of the body, could allow Qin Shaojie to resist the corrosive power of these auras.

But even so, his expression was still grave. He was afraid that the physical body below the Saint level would not be able to resist at all. It would even be corroded at an extremely fast speed.

This was only the aura of this place. Who knew what else was hidden inside. But at least he was sure that ordinary peak Third-rank Saints would not be able to do this.

These words were not Qin Shaojie's exaggeration, but it was the truth.

Other than Qin Shaojie, even though Jin Feier and Bi Meng had heavy expressions, the kind of situation that they expected wasn't happening. Bi Meng was an old man who had lived for god knows how many years. It was as if he was an immortal existence, his physical body already becoming unimportant after so many years. However, the key point was that he was not affected by the corrosive power.

This corrosive power was like a warm spring breeze to him, surprising both Jin Feier and Yun Che.

The corrosive power is very strong, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to have any effect on me.

Seemingly sensing the twitching faces of Qin Shaojie and Qin Shaojie, Bi Meng said proudly. He could truly feel this powerful corrosive force, but it did not harm him at all.

This world was truly wondrous. Sometimes, things could not be predicted using common sense. All that could be said was that his luck was too good.

If this was the case even in the area covered by this Qi, then this would undoubtedly be the place with the greatest advantage for Bi Meng! He could even investigate everything that happened from within.

This breath had some effect on me, but it wasn't as serious as I had expected.

At the same time, Jin Feier also slowly spoke out. Under this kind of corrosive power, she was indeed affected, but as a Second Order Saint, this corrosive power was not obvious, to a certain extent, he could even neglect a little.

Compared to Qin Shaojie, at least, his resistance towards this corrosive power seemed to be a little more obvious and effective.

The reaction of the two made Qin Shaojie fall into deep thoughts. However, his face turned more and more unsightly as he was lost in his thoughts.

If that was the case, then this aura was most likely related to the Nine-headed Snake. Because from what I've heard, the Nine-headed Snake isn't an existence from this world, but an expert from another world.

Qin Shaojie said seriously as his eyes flashed.

Evidently, Bi Meng was an existence from the Outer Realm. Although he did not remember many things, he was able to directly adapt to some things from the Outer Realm. As for Jin Feier, the blood in her body belonged to a primordial divine beast. And the Four Ancient Divine Beasts weren't natives of the Tian Yuan Continent s or above, they were experts who had come from worlds of other realms!

So when Bi Meng was able to disregard it, when Jin Feier was able to do something big, it was more obvious that she was able to resist it, but now, she was truly going to be affected by the corrosion of the aura!

The greatest possibility of using such a method was that the experts from the other realms had set up such a method. In the past, Patriarch Subhuti had said that this Nine-headed Snake was not a native of the Tian Yuan Continent. Now, it seemed that Patriarch Subhuti's words were correct, and his methods were mainly aimed at the aboriginals above the Tian Yuan Continent!

Qin Shaojie's words also caused Jin Feier and Bi Meng to sink into deep thought.

They obviously believed in Qin Shaojie, if the Nine-headed Snake really appeared here, even if the three of them were conceited or strong enough, it would be difficult for them to pose a threat to the Nine-headed Snake, or even be threatened by the Nine-headed Snake.

Don't worry, if I really do encounter a Nine-headed Snake, I have a certain amount of confidence to be able to escape with you.

Qin Shaojie said seriously as his eyes slightly narrowed.

He was very clear that he currently did not have the strength and qualifications to fight against the Nine-headed Snake. However, if one were to say that he was fleeing, he had a certain number of methods up his sleeve!

This was the main reason why he was willing to come!
