Chapter 412 - Mountain of Seals
When Chen Fan stepped into the sealed land, an extremely overwhelming murderous will washed over him.
A sprawling battlefield appeared before his eyes.
The air was thick with the scent of blood, amidst the chaotic scene of relentless combat. Countless experts fought, trying to kill each other to ensure their own survival. Limbs, intact and broken, flew around like gravel, and blood was everywhere. The battlefield looked like a human slaughterhouse.
This murderous will could even capture the minds of high-level Yuanfu realm experts, leading them to lose their rationale and sink into this murderous will, turning them into bloodthirsty lunatics.
What a terrifying murderous will. This ancient battle must have been terrifying. Experts are falling like raindrops and their clash can make mountains crumble and the earth crack. Even the sun and the moon are losing their light. Is this what an apocalypse looks like?
Chen Fan’s heart tightened, aware that the murderous will emanated from the ancient era battle.
Even though more than a thousand years had passed since the death of all these experts, that kind of unseen will lingered and did not dissipate.
Fortunately, Chen Fan had strong cultivation and an equally strong spirit, so the murderous will did not affect his mind. His gaze burned like a torch as he quickly flew through the tunnel.
This sealed land was like a maze. Tunnels were everywhere, connecting to different places.
Chen Fan could only go forward based on his gut instinct. He didn’t dare to delay things, as he could already sense that Young Master Xue Yi, Sword Venerable Ling Yun, and the others were chasing him.
“Hurry, that little bastard went this way.”
Sword Venerable Ling Yun and the others pursued Chen Fan, their eyes ablaze with killing intent, effortlessly navigating the darkness of the underground terrain.
Swish, swish, swish.
Chen Fan moved quickly, with the Wind and Cloud Banners protecting him at all times.
“You won’t get away, brat. Quickly give yourself up!” said Sword Venerable Ling Yun coldly from behind.
The sharp sound of air being torn apart rang, followed by a dangerous aura descending.
Chen Fan didn’t need to turn around and look to realize that Sword Venerable Ling Yun had made a move.
“That’s right, we mustn’t let this brat escape. If he gets out, let alone helping Daoist Corpse Spirit break free from his suppression, we might even face a disaster ourselves,” Wanderer Hundred Poisons said.
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s strike together and kill him,” Black Fiend Bat said, his expression savage.
After the humiliation he had felt, he wanted to rip Chen Fan to shreds, likely even more than saving Daoist Corpse Spirit.
“No need to waste your strength anymore, brat. Entering the sealed lands is the same as walking into the jaws of death. You can forget about escaping.” Young Master Xue Yi’s powerful aura flourished, covering the skies.
“Brat, you thought you could escape? There's no escape for you here. You're trapped,” Sword Venerable Ling Yun said coldly.
Yin Yang Scholar suddenly said, “Wait! Why don’t we capture him and use him as the eye of the formation? We’ll drain all his energy to break the Mountain of Seals. It's a fitting fate for someone like him."
“Fine, Yin Yang Scholar has a point. We can’t kill him so easily. We’ll drain all his energy to free Daoist Corpse Spirit. That’ll save us some energy,” Wanderer Hundred Poisons said, agreeing with the proposal.
Chen Fan’s heart sank. Now, there truly was nowhere for him to run.
Since that is the case, I can only go all in. Even if I die, I’ll have to drag one or two of them down with me!
A ferocious light shone in his eyes; he looked like a beast.
Even a cornered beast fought to its death, rather than waiting for death. Even if he died, it had to be for nothing
“Huh, brat, it seems you're determined to fight to the bitter end. Looks like you’re still unclear about your situation. I know what you’re thinking. You want to drag some of us down with you, don’t you? However, the real question is... can you?” Sword Venerable Ling Yun said coldly, seeing through Chen Fan’s plan.
Buzz, buzz!
Rumble!
Before Chen Fan could respond, a sudden upheaval rocked the ground beneath them, sending shockwaves rippling through the air.
The sealing runes on the mountain simultaneously flashed violently, blossoming with a light that illuminated the surroundings as if it were daytime.
“What’s happening?”
This sudden turn of events left Chen Fan, Sword Venerable Ling Yun, and the others confused and surprised.
