Chapter 1841: The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The Qin Clan’s experts directly rushed towards Qin Wentian, temporarily ignoring the injured Luoshen Lei.
They were undoubtedly the ones who understood this history the most. If Qin Yuanfeng still had a descendent in this world, they had to go all out to kill that descendent. When they returned to the Qin Clan, it would be considered a major merit if they succeeded.
Luoshen Lei’s qi and blood churned wildly, she roared in rage and rushed out once more. Figures formed from her blood manifested, blocking the three of them. The three world overlords snorted coldly and simply struck out. The entire space shook as the blood figures were destroyed. Now, Luoshen Lei was simply a spent force, she would find it difficult even to protect herself. How could she still save Qin Wentian?
The blood figures dissipated. One of the experts stabbed his finger forward, generating a beam of destruction that shot into Qin Wentian, wanting to destroy his body. At this moment, Yue Changkong and Devilox both took this opportunity to struggle free. The energy of ‘Life Stop’ no longer controlled them.
Yue Changkong’s face was filled with a cold malevolence. Qin Wentian was actually so strong that he felt threatened. Earlier, he felt that his life wasn’t in his control at all. Such a feeling was too terrifying, no one would want to experience that a second time if they experienced it before. When in that state of stillness, he felt that he would never awaken. If it wasn’t for the fact that he was strong enough, his life earlier would have already been forcefully stilled, there would be no difference from death.
Devilox’s strength was inferior to Yue Changkong. Although he is a supreme genius of the Divine Ox Clan, his cultivation base was one of the weaker ones when in the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy. In the world of reincarnation, he was the same as well. If it wasn’t for him having an opportunity to perform a sneak attack earlier, he wouldn’t have attacked. Earlier, he could sense how powerful the time dao bone was, this caused him to feel greed. If he could obtain that, he would have two dao bones in his body.
When he thought of this, and as he saw Qin Wentian who was knocked away, he decisively decided to act again and sped over towards Qin Wentian with lightning speed. His gaze was incomparably resolute. He had to get the dao bone at all cost.
But at this moment, formless sound waves suddenly appeared. After that, an incomparably powerful slaughter intent radiated from the waves and bore down on him. “Vile beast, it’s a humiliation to the name of our sacred academy that we allowed a scum like you to cultivate in it.”
An old man walked over, he was none other than the Divine Sound World Overlord. When he saw Devilox planning to attack Qin Wentian again, he instantly interfered. The formless sound waves generated by him contained an extremely powerful might that obstructed Devilox. Devilox howled in rage as his battle intent surged. Behind him, an incomparably gigantic law body of a divine ox appeared as he tried to struggle free.
Terrifying lacerating sounds rang out. A moment later, fresh blood splashed through the air. A wound appeared on Devilox’s arm, the formless sound waves continued to slice into him. He howled in madness and decided to ignore Qin Wentian. With an intention of his will, he reverted to his true demonic form of an ancient oxen whose horns gleamed with a terrifying light. A powerful treasure light covered his entire body as he fought against Divine Sound.
Divine Sound naturally obliged. However, although he managed to obstruct Devilox, Yue Changkong and the others from the Qin Clan naturally wouldn’t spare the injured Qin Wentian. Earlier, Qin Wentian’s life-risking attack almost claimed Yue Changkong’s life but he was also heavily injured in return, in addition to Devilox’s sneak attack combined with the finger attack from the Qin Clan’s expert. At this moment, his vitality constantly weakened due to the continued attacks by Yue Changkong and the Qin Clan’s experts. Most probably, he would find it hard to escape this calamity.
Just when Yue Changkong and the Qin Clan’s experts continued to pursue Qin Wentian, an alluring silhouette suddenly sped through the air, grabbing hold of Qin Wentian before speeding far away. This caused the gazes of everyone to freeze as they stared at the beautiful figure who intervened.
When they saw clearly who that figure was, many people had a look of interest on their faces.
This figure was extremely outstanding and was incomparably beautiful. With just a single glance at her, people would be mesmerized and not be willing to act against her. She was the number one beauty of the Heaven Region, Goddess Nichang.
Goddess Nichang and the Mystical Maiden both appeared at this moment, constituting a scene of extreme beauty. The sight of these two maidens naturally caused the hearts of the crowd to be delighted. But at this moment, no one among the crowd had any mood to admire their beauty. What made everyone puzzled was that Goddess Nichang actually rescued Qin Wentian? What situation is this?
From what they knew, Goddess Nichang should be a couple with Heaven’s Son, Qin Dangtian. And if Qin Wentian was Qin Yuanfeng’s son, didn’t that mean that he and Qin Dangtian were born fated to be enemies?
That year in the past, Qin Dangtian’s father Qin Zheng, his struggle against Qin Yuanfeng was circulated all over the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.
Not only was the crowd startled, even Qin Wentian himself was taken aback. Goddess Nichang actually acted to help him? This made him feel somewhat bizarre. However, that beautiful figure merely calmly gazed ahead and seemed to have no intentions to explain anything. In fact, her gaze towards the Qin Clan’s experts was exceptionally cold.
In this world of reincarnation, the three of them actually dared to lust after her and wanted to capture her?
The battle here was too intense, incidents that made everyone shocked happened one after the other. Qingcheng Realmlord Qin Wentian is actually also a supreme expert from the Qin Clan. He was the son of the legendary Qin Yuanfeng back then. After that, when Goddess Nichang appeared, she actually saved Qin Wentian from the hands of the Qin Clan’s experts?
This story truly had many twists and turns.
But at this moment, the reverend from the buddhist sect in the Pureland of Bliss pressed his palms together. He glanced in the distance and spoke, “Some people feel that they are the cleverest of all, scheming against others but they have no idea they themselves are victims of a sinister plot by someone in the shadows.”
As the sound of his voice faded, all the experts seemed to sense something. They glanced in a direction and after that, their eyes involuntarily narrowed as sharpness flashed within. When they were fighting, the aftershocks would affect a large area. Many experts in the ancient city retreated extremely faraway. There were even some who died. But even so, there were still many silently watching this battle from afar.
But now, to their shock, all these spectators have disappeared. From afar, a blood mist drifted over, exuding a sinister aura as it permeated the area. This blood mist enveloped the central region and then seeped into the bodies of unsuspecting people.
“A tribulation in the world of reincarnation.” The reverend sighed. In an instant, death took this place. Many people didn’t even know how they died. That terrifying blood mist gradually took on corporeal form, forming an extremely large net of destruction that covered this place, while emitting a deadly gas that entered the bodies of people.
Someone frowned and coldly spoke, “Poisonous qi.”
The eyes of Lin Xiao from the Qiankun Sect flashed with coldness. He stared in the distance, “I was wondering why the supreme character from the God Destroying Sect has yet to appear. So it turns out that you’ve been hiding in the shadows from the start and actually planned to use the lives of this city to refine poison qi. Do you intend to eliminate all of us with a single move?
A sense of wariness filled the hearts of many when they thought about that character from the God Destroying Palace. They all executed their innate techniques causing protective light to cover their bodies, not allowing the blood mist to seep into them.
Since that person in the shadows had made preparations for this, it was naturally not so easy to block this blood mist. Blood clouds filled the air, radiating a filthy aura that covered everything, shining a bloody radiance on everyone. This radiance contained the might of the dao within, and tyrannically drilled through the protective layers covering the experts.
Even the Mystical Maiden’s holy light barrier was being corroded. The disgusting corrosion energy seeped into her skin, wanting to rot it. A look of disgust appeared on her face. This energy was too evil and tyrannical and caused her to be extremely uncomfortable.
“He should have also cultivated an evil art.” Lin Xiao spoke up after he felt that immense might. That supreme character from the God Destroying Palace was originally already an extremely dangerous character. Given his personality, it wasn’t strange that he has cultivated an evil art. Because, his innate nature was already evil.
Just like what the Reverend from the Pureland of Bliss has said, one’s innate heart would be revealed by the circumstances. There was no surprise that that person chose this path.
Lin Xiao looked down on Yue Changkong but he didn’t dare to underestimate that supreme character from the God Destroying Palace. That person was originally already very dangerous and powerful. Now that he has cultivated an evil art, he would only be even more terrifying.
Yue Changkong also sensed that power. In fact, he didn’t even glanced at Qin Wentian and he was staring at the direction of that terrifying might instead. He then mumbled in a low voice, “The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware that the oriole was behind?”
He didn’t expect that the him today would be playing the role of the mantis. That supreme character who has yet to walk out, had extremely great ambitions, wanting to use all lives in a city to cultivate blood poison, wiping them out in one fell swoop, so he could be the sole person remaining.
Yue Changkong himself also understood that there are bound to be other existences who cultivated the evil arts hiding in the shadows. Now, they were all gradually appearing?
The situation suddenly turned calm. Using this chance, the Divine Sound World Overlord and Luoshen Lei came to Qin Wentian’s side. Divine Sound stared at Qin Wentian who was silently recovering as he sighed in his heart. This young man whom he inducted into the sacred academy…if he doesn’t die here, he would definitely become a legend of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms in the future.
Luoshen Lei’s eyes turned red. She stared at Qin Wentian as immense amounts of guilt filled her heart. She sobbed, “Elder brother, am I very foolish?”
She felt that it should be impossible for them to leave the world of reincarnation alive. She had harmed Grandpa Lifeless and now, she even implicated her elder brother.
“Silly lass. Are you still not clear of how despicable Yue Changkong is? Back then, even if you didn’t say that sentence, he would still have acted against you. When he does that, how could Grandpa Lifeless step aside and watch on?” Qin Wentian consoled. As long as Lifeless was present, he would definitely have fought for Luoshen Lei. The ending would be the same, like it was already destined.
“As for me, my fight with him is something that would happen sooner or later. This has nothing to do with you. There’s no need for you to feel guilt.” Qin Wentian felt pain in his heart when he saw Luoshen Lei’s appearance. An extremely beautiful maiden, a genius of the Luoshen Clan, was actually forced to cultivate an evil art in this world. This world of reincarnation, wasn’t it a little too cruel? It was extremely cruel to everyone!
