Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1143 - The Great Sun in the Darkness

“Two True Kings, the channel will open soon. Qin Yu must break apart the ancestral mark he obtained on his own.” Seven Wounds Clan Elder reminded out loud.

Qin Yu glanced at him. He lifted a hand and placed a finger between his eyebrows. With a light ‘pa’ sound, the mark flashed and shattered.

Hum –

Hum –

The entire Chosen Platform fiercely shook. The spatial distortion that surrounded it also fluctuated.

In the next moment, Qin Yu, as well as the other competitors, all revealed looks of surprise.

Grinding apart the blood columns above everyone’s heads and obtaining the sole approval of the ancestral land, this was the first time this happened in the history of the Nightmare Clan.

So when the selection restarted, everyone discovered a fact that left their hearts racing – they had all unexpectedly obtained approval.

Or to be more accurate, the ancestral land had loosened the limits and allowed them to enter.

Whoosh –

With the sound of piercing air, a competitor shot into the skies. Demonic energy combusted around him as he shot towards the vortex up above.

Blue Sea’s complexion changed, “Elder, stop him!”

Ao Fa flicked his sleeves. Space fiercely twisted and the competitor who flew into the skies burst apart in a bloom of blood.

“I only said that Blue Sea, Xi Mo, and Qin Yu can enter. Anyone that dares to act rashly will meet a similar fate!”

The scene fell silent.

The pleasant surprise that colored the faces of the other competitors slowly began to pale.

That’s right, even if they had been selected, how could they obtain the approval of the ancestral land? And with Elder Ao Fa and King Mystery here, there was no way for them to enter the channel.

If they tried to rush in…all that awaited them was death!

At this moment, the vortex above the Chosen Platform completely condensed. The blurry channel became clear.

The Chosen Platform shook once again, erupting with a repelling strength. It was like standing atop a sea while it raged in a storm.

Bang –

Bang –

Bang –

The suppressed Cloud Boundless, Seven Wound Clan Elder, and the other protectors were the first to be shaken off the Chosen Platform.

King Mystery coldly snorted. “Why haven’t you all left yet? Are you waiting here to die?”

The other competitors trembled, unwillingness in their eyes. They looked up at the channel which had appeared.

It was right in front of their eyes and within reach. Just a few breaths of time and they could enter…but those few breaths of time were a moat that would hold a lifetime of regrets.

Clenching their teeth, the several people turned and left. Soon, only Blue Sea, Xi Mo, and Qin Yu remained.action

King Mystery looked up, silently gazing at the channel within the vortex. His expression was dark and uncertain.

Near him, Ao Fa also had a hesitant appearance.

The two stayed and didn’t retreat. They were like two giant stone monoliths sitting in a storm. Rumbles constantly came from their bodies. If anyone else was in their place, even a Demon Commander, they would be crushed in an instant when they approached these two True Kings.

Just what was the Nightmare Ancestral Land hiding? Not even the Nether Royal Bloodline or Demon Dragon Clan knew for sure. It would be best if they could enter themselves.

Especially now, when they saw the vortex condense and the channel appear, those thoughts became irrepressible.

But soon, King Mystery and Elder Ao Fa’s complexions both changed. They took a step back at nearly the same time.

Their figures flickered and they appeared outside the Chosen Platform. At this time, their pupils were still fiercely contracted.

Just now, they felt a terrifying aura…this aura was like they were directly facing the abyss!

And the only thing that could make them feel such suppression was the supreme will of the abyss!

Rumble rumble –

Deafening noises filled the air. In the middle of it, the Chosen Platform quickly rose into the skies. It flew into the vortex as if supported by a giant invisible hand. Then, as the vortex spun, the Chosen Platform became smaller and smaller, eventually turning into a black spot that vanished from sight.

The vortex gradually stopped spinning and the channel within it also disappeared. When it appeared once more, that would indicate that the competition in the ancestral land had ended and a new Nightmare King had been born!

Xi Mo was the choice of the Nether Royal Bloodline. He would definitely succeed!

As his mind surged, King Mystery lost control of his strength for a moment. A projection of purgatory suddenly appeared around him.

Countless demons large and small were all trapped within this projection of purgatory. They wailed in pain and agony as they burned in flames.

If Qin Yu were here, he might discover that one of the demons suffering in this purgatory was unusually familiar.

King Mystery took a deep breath and restrained his strength once again. The projection of purgatory vanished as he did. His eyes fell on Elder Ao Fa, and when he saw the old dragon’s tightened eyebrows, his expression clouded over.

While he was confident in Xi Mo who was chosen by the Nether Royal Bloodline, the Demon Dragon Clan was no weaker than them. If the Demon Dragon Clan chose Blue Sea, it was inevitably because he had the qualifications for them to select him.

Yet this old dragon Ao Fa didn’t seem to have much confidence. Was it because of Qin Yu, or because of that woman named Feature who stood behind Qin Yu?

King Mystery hesitated for a moment. “Elder Ao Fa, would you like to exchange some information?”

Ao Fa glanced at him, “If it concerns Feature, King Mystery need not ask.”

He closed his eyes and didn’t speak further.

King Mystery frowned, a dignified look in his eyes. With this old dragon’s strength and status, he didn’t even dare to say a single word.

Feature…this woman’s background might be greater than he imagined…

Xi Mo had already started. If that junior Blue Sea wasn’t a fool, he would certainly choose to join forces with him.

If the two of them erupted with their full power, who besides a True King could resist them? Qin Yu would die, he had to die!

…

In fact, King Mystery’s guess wasn’t wrong. A great battle had already erupted. The only difference was that it was Qin Yu himself who took the initiative.

Because the moment he entered the channel to the ancestral land, a thought fluctuation from the little blue lamp resounded in his mind.

While he had guessed the little blue lamp had a plan, when he learnt about it, he was still taken aback.

Originally, Qin Yu was just a chess piece wrapped in a mighty current with no choice but to follow the flow of the raging river.

But if he followed the little blue lamp’s plan, he could leap out from the waters and separate himself from the chess game, becoming a player instead.

No…to be more accurate, to achieve his ultimate goal he had to drag everyone into his chess game.

Shock was shock. After that passed, he accepted the little blue lamp’s plan without hesitation.

Dangers were a must. With such an astonishing chess game laid out for him, the slightest mistake would lead to utter destruction.

But with the little blue lamp’s cautious nature, if there weren’t enough benefits it would never have suggested such a radical and insane plan.

Then…he could only bet it all!

The Titan True Body directly arrived. Qin Yu instantly turned into a giant that towered 10,000 feet high. He lifted a fist and punched out. At the same time, his eyes turned pitch black. The Abyssal Gaze had been activated.

But now, no one knew that the darkness within Qin Yu’s eyes was only a thick curtain and barrier.

In the deepest part of his eyes, it covered up the rising great sun so that it was hidden in the darkness and not sensed by those outside.

Abyssal Gaze. This was a terrifying supernatural power wielded by the Nightmare King after obtaining the approval of the abyss.

In other words, it was an extension of the abyss’ will…he was using the strength of the abyss’ will to hide it from the abyss – it was perfect!

Blue Sea froze in place and his heart wildly contracted. Fear swelled through him, assaulting his mind.

Abyssal Titan, this was actually the Abyssal Titan bloodline! How was this possible!?

Although formidable bloodline fusions existed in the abyss, only the strongest bloodline was displayed. The others all existed in a state of slumber.

Qin Yu had clearly displayed the fully awakened Nightmare King’s royal bloodline, and now he had directly transformed into the incarnation of an Abyssal Titan.

It was simply inconceivable!

But now was not the time to be shocked or stunned. Blue Sea roared out loud and golden scales started to appear all over his body.

That’s right, this was a pure and shimmering gold. It was noble and glorious as a formidable aura suddenly erupted.

Bang –

As the golden scales appeared, the aura within Blue Sea started to rise like an awakening volcano, climbing at a terrifying speed.

“You want to kill me? That’s impossible!”

With a roar, Blue Sea punched out a fist.

The 10,000 foot tall Abyssal Titan collided with Blue Sea’s fist. The terrifying impact of strength instantly swept out through all sides. Space fiercely twisted as countless black cracks appeared. The ground began to collapse and disintegrate.

At this time, Blue Sea suddenly screeched, “You…!”

Before he finished his words, his aura started to deflate like a popped balloon.

A moment later, Blue Sea was sent flying away. A wild strength broke into his body, crazily rampaging around and destroying everything.

The brilliance in his eyes thoroughly darkened in an instant. Then, his entire body was torn into countless pieces as large bits of flesh and blood splashed out.

But an even stranger sight occurred. The killed Blue Sea’s torn flesh and blood began to rapidly condense in midair.

In a breath of time, the flesh and blood reformed into a complete Blue Sea. His gloomy eyes erupted with a blinding light as he fiercely stormed backwards.

Besides his pale face and his weakened aura, it seemed that everything that just occurred was just an illusion.

But at this time, in a guarded chamber within the Adversity Peak City Lord Mansion, a strong smell of blood flooded the air.

Blue Wave, who had been ordered to stay there and devote himself to cultivating, had exploded, turning into rotten flesh and pieces of bone.

Even at the point of his death, he had no idea what had happened.

It was naturally impossible for this to be an illusion. The reason Blue Sea was able to revive himself was because he had kept an escape route for himself.

A child from the same mother, a younger brother of the same bloodline, was clearly the best medium to do so.

“Xi Mo, Qin Yu is hiding another formidable strength within his body. If we don’t work together, all that awaits us is death!”

With a shrill roar, golden scales appeared on Blue Sea’s body once more. Then…he turned and fled!

That’s right, just before he had been roaring at Xi Mo to work together with him to defeat Qin Yu. But now, he was doing his best to escape.

He wasn’t stupid. He thought about the possibility that after separating, he would most likely be killed alone. But he also knew that even if he joined together with Xi Mo, they were absolutely not Qin Yu’s match.

The strength hidden within his body was terrifying beyond imagination. Just coming into contact with it for a brief moment had instantly suppressed him.

Without any chance of resistance, easily and smoothly, his consciousness had been annihilated and his body collapsed with it.

He was able to revive himself the first time.

But if he died once more, he would really die!

Bang –
