Chapter 1129A. Cooperate to Destroy the Ancestral Land
Chapter 1129A. Cooperate to Destroy the Ancestral Land
The Giant Alligator King accused the Golden Eagle King of cooperating with the Nightmare Clan and the Golden Eagle King accused the Giant Alligator King of cooperating with the Nightmare Clan…no one knew what the truth was, but without a doubt, the Nightmare Clan was involved.
Dealing with them wasn’t wrong…but did they really have to fight? The Nightmare Clan wasn’t easy to provoke. If they started a battle, the first one to enter the fray would be a sacrifice.
For a time, the remaining beast kings were lost in thought. Their eyes occasionally looked left and right with hesitation.
No one wanted to be the first to act. But if they gave up like this, it would be going too easy on the Nightmare Clan. The one who died was the Ant King, and if they didn’t teach the Nightmare Clan a lesson, the ones that perished in the future might be them!
Qi Zhen’s lips curved up in a mocking smile. He suddenly said, “Attack; don’t make those fools feel awkward any longer.”
The atmosphere fell silent. With a light chuckle, he glanced around, “What, did you not hear my words? I won’t repeat myself.”
Insanity!
This was the definition of insanity!
Didn’t young master Qi Zhen know that once they attacked, they would thoroughly ignite a war with the nightmare beast race?
This would lead to dead people. And it wouldn’t be a small number either.
Across from them, the hesitating nightmare beast kings all became thoroughly enraged.
What arrogance! This fool had no idea of death or danger!
But before they could express any more words to indicate their anger, the Nightmare Clansmen roared out loud.
“Kill them!”
Bang –
Bang –
The demons from the Ancient King’s Lineage took the lead.
The situation immediately turned chaotic. The nightmare beast kings were caught off guard, but soon gathered themselves and crazily rushed out.
It was the Nightmare Clan who attacked first, so even if they killed them, it wouldn’t be breaking the rules. If so, what was there to hesitate about? They would kill until they satiated themselves. They had already been wanting to kill these Nightmare Clansmen!
Rumble rumble –
Terrifying fluctuations of strength swept out, causing the space within the Nightmare Beast Territory to distort.
Countless cracks appeared in space as the void started to disintegrate. A reckless swallowing strength gushed out, tearing and cutting apart everything…at this moment, the world seemed like a seething cauldron of water!
Cloud Mist’s eyes brightened. The Ancient King’s Lineage had suddenly decided to fight with the nightmare beast kings. To them, this was the best opportunity.
Although stabbing their fellow clansmen in the back was disgraceful…for the sake of expediency, they couldn’t care about such things!
Then Qin Yu opened his mouth and interrupted her train of thought. “Go. Help them deal with the nightmare beasts.”
“…” Cloud Mist nearly choked on herself. She had seen Qi Zhen and Qin Yu exchange looks, and she was sure that he was the target.
If they didn’t hurry and attack now, but even had to help them fight the nightmare beast kings instead…just what was Qin Yu thinking?
Qin Yu had a calm expression. “Don’t ask, just follow my orders.” His tone was tranquil, but within this tranquility there was an undeniable and firm will.
Cloud Mountain, Cloud River, and Cloud Sky might have obtained orders from Cloud Boundless before entering the Nightmare Beast Territory, but they were definitely more inclined to listen to Cloud Mist. Now, they looked at her.
Old Fox and Black Astral had some scruples. Although they couldn’t figure out the reason for Qin Yu’s actions, all they had to do was follow his command.
“Fight!”
With a thought, the two old demons waded into the battle.
Cloud Mist drew in a deep breath, “Qin Yu, I hope you won’t regret this!” She turned and shouted, “Follow me!”
Cloud Mountain, Cloud River, and Cloud Sky all quickly followed behind her.
“This little girl, she seems to be interested in you. Her eyesight isn’t bad.” Qi Zhen smiled and raised his hands to pat his chest, a rather old manner of demon etiquette. “Allow me to formally introduce myself. My current name is Qi Zhen, a direct descendant of the Ancient King’s Lineage…of course, you don’t need to care about any of this…just take it as an apology for my previous actions.”
A few words revealed far too much information. Just thinking it over, one could even imagine some horrifying possibilities.
But Qi Zhen had spoken it all so clearly and without any means of concealing it. Was he really that careless, or was he so confident that he wasn’t afraid of exposing anything? Come to think of it, the latter was more likely!
Qin Yu’s eyes flashed and he said, “I am not that mean-spirited. Since I said I will let things go for now, I won’t obsess over this matter.” He paused and then continued, “What I want to know is what sort of cooperation you were speaking about.”
“Great! I admire straight talk from a straightforward person.” Qi Zhen gave a thumb up. “Then I will get to the point. Before discussing cooperation, I need to confirm who you are first…perhaps you might think this is strange, but I have no other way to explain now.”
Qin Yu said, “What do you need me to do?”
Qi Zhen replied, “Simple. Give me your hand.”
Qin Yu reached out a hand and Qi Zhen gripped it. In the next moment, Qin Yu could clearly feel his connection with the Nightmare Ancestral Land being touched.
Thump –
Thump –
Thump –
Within his chest, the heart of the abyss began to accelerate and demonic energy erupted.
Qi Zhen let go and took a step back. When he looked at Qin Yu, there was excitement and confusion, “It’s true…it’s actually true…how strange, how wonderfully strange!”
Qin Yu calmed his racing heart and said, “You can tell me now, right?”
Qi Zhen nodded, “Of course. I have now determined that you are a different person from me, yet you also have the same characteristics. Haha, I never thought that after waiting for so many years, such a day would arrive…boy, your luck is quite good to run into me. If I was some other fellow, you would have already died.”
His eyes fell on Qin Yu and he smirked, “What, you don’t believe me? But if I really wanted to kill you, you would have certainly died. Even if you have the Abyssal Titan bloodline…mm, you also seem to have a considerably strong summoning crystal.”
Qin Yu’s heart shook. This was the first time someone had seen through his cards.
How was this possible?
The Abyssal Titan bloodline was one thing. After all, it was in his body. But, how had he discovered the Demon Dragon Clan Elder’s summoning crystal?
“Are you frightened? Haha, in fact, there is another point I haven’t said yet…for instance, that you are a person from the living world and yet you can unexpectedly live in the abyss…and not be discovered by anyone…tsk tsk, this is a truly wonderful concealment method to even hide from my senses. It seems that your current condition was intentionally arranged by someone…” Qi Zhen sighed with emotion, “Although I have no idea who it is, their courage must be great….to actually…move against…
“I can’t speak further, otherwise there will be great trouble. Let’s leave this place and have a good chat somewhere else.” Qi Zhen flicked his sleeves. Qin Yu didn’t even feel any fluctuations of strength before his surroundings rippled and the both of them appeared on the summit of a mountain.
He could hear strong winds howling in his ears. Down below, layers of fog stacked up on top of each other, with roars resonating from them.
Only now did Qin Yu believe that Qi Zhen had the ability to easily kill him. This person…was just far too terrifying. Just who was he?
With the sound of whistling winds in his ears, Qi Zhen seemed a little annoyed as he pulled away some hair that blocked his eyes. Then, he stretched out a hand and tapped the void.
With a light ‘pa’ sound, it was like a switch had been pressed. The strong winds at the summit immediately vanished.
He looked around. The branches of the sturdy trees in the distance still swung in the wind and the fog still tumbled around, but all wind had been banned from the summit.
“Hu…we can finally talk quietly. This place didn’t used to have such heavy winds!” Qi Zhen shook his head and glanced at Qin Yu, “Scared? Now you believe what I said! Haha, in truth, my strength isn’t as great as yours right now. These are just some minor tricks. You’ll learn about them in the future.”
Qin Yu took a deep breath and bowed, “May I ask who senior is?”
Qi Zhen waved a hand, “There’s no need to bow. Although I have lived longer than you, strictly speaking we are the same kind of person, so it’s better to speak as peers.”
He paced back and forth two steps before slapping his forehead, “As for the question you asked, it’s not easy for me to answer right now. I’m not trying to shift responsibility or anything, it’s just…I have many identities. You can simply understand me as someone who has lived many times…of course, I know what you want to know the most. For instance, amongst the identities I have lived as, some are ordinary and some are extraordinary. Such as, the Nightmare King you know of.”
Qin Yu’s heart quaked. While he had some suspicions when his connection to the Nightmare Ancestral Land was touched, he still found it unbelievable when it was confirmed by Qi Zhen.
Perhaps he had come into contact with one of the greatest secrets of the Nightmare Clan…and this was a secret not even Cloud Boundless knew about!
Qin Yu took a deep breath and said, “Senior, you said you want to cooperate with me…”
“Don’t call me senior anymore. I don’t know your background, so maybe your true body is even older than me.” Qi Zhen sat on the ground, “Just call me Qi Zhen. This name is quite good, and it’s much more pleasant to the ears.”
He waved his hand, hinting for Qin Yu to sit down. “Since I asked to cooperate, let’s get to business first…mm, it’s actually very simple. To sum it up – I will help you enter the Nightmare Ancestral Land and you will help me destroy it.”
These were indeed a few words, but weren’t these words too frightening?
Qin Yu had just sat down, but now he froze in place. Someone who kept reincarnating for a countless number of years, even becoming the Nightmare King more than once…actually wanted him to destroy the Nightmare Ancestral Land…
This was madness!
Qi Zhen coldly sneered, “I’m not crazy. I can’t tell you the specifics, otherwise you would have died before I finished.”
Qin Yu’s heart shrank and he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. Although he had no idea what Qi Zhen was referring to, he really did feel a terrifying aura right now.
If Qi Zhen were to truly speak of the matter he didn’t want to mention, even just a single sentence would cause Qin Yu to die immediately!
There was no logic behind this, but Qin Yu could truly sense the shadow of death…this was actually real!
Just what was it? It couldn’t even be spoken, and speaking it would cause someone to die.
