Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 529: Chi Hai Appears
Qinchuan looked at the Jin Ling Saintess with feigned oddity, "Is that true? I'm afraid the things this young master desires, your group might not be able to provide!"
"Please feel free to express any requirements, senior. We will definitely fulfill them with all our might!"
"We'll talk about this when we meet your spokesperson. The needs of this young master, even if I told you, you wouldn't be able to make a decision," Qinchuan didn't agree to her, nor did he refuse her. Instead, he changed the subject once again and asked.
"The powers behind the three Great Ancient Kingdoms from the Divine Realm should have almost all arrived, right?"
The Jin Ling Saintess was startled, not understanding why Qinchuan suddenly asked this.
But she obediently answered, "This is a matter of great importance. The Divine Alliance from the Great Yan Ancient Kingdom, the Feather Alliance from the Jiuxiang Ancient Country, and everyone from the Rain People Clan of the Taiyuan Ancient Kingdom have all gathered at Crystal Mountain, waiting for the Bronze Stone Coffins to be opened.
However, those two Bronze Stone Coffins are indeed very peculiar. No matter what methods the people from all sides have used, they have not been able to open them."
Qinchuan was solemn. Crystal Mountain was now like a huge powder keg with all forces already concentrated there. The only reason a fight had not yet broken out was that the Bronze Stone Coffins had not been opened.
Once the two Bronze Stone Coffins were opened, a battle of the ages would surely ensue.
Qinchuan and his party traveled through the sky. After a while, Qinchuan suddenly came to a stop.
"All right, you can go back for now! This young master just remembered there are some matters I must attend to!"
The Jin Ling Saintess was puzzled.
In this vast expanse of sea, what kind of matters could there be?
But she knew not to ask questions she shouldn't ask. Although full of confusion, she still bid farewell to the three and hurried back to Divine Demon Island.
"Big brother, are you really planning to trade the Spiritual Treasure from the Spirit Martial Great Tomb?"
Qinchuan's conversation with the Jin Ling Saintess had not been kept secret from Ji Huo'er and the others.
Seeing the Jin Ling Saintess leave, Ji Huo'er asked with curiosity.
"I don't think it's in the young master's nature to want to trade for their Heavenly Treasures Materials. The trade is just a facade," Ling Xian'er said with a smile.
"Indeed, only Xian'er understands me. I truly have no intention of trading away the Spiritual Treasure," Qinchuan secretly continued in his heart, "Besides, the World Crystal Core from that day has already fused with my Chi Yue Spear. Even if I wanted to trade it, I wouldn't be able to."
Qinchuan didn't head towards Divine Demon Island but veered off direction, instead moving towards the southeast of Divine Demon Island.
Along the way, the journey was smooth, without any obstructions.
After traveling for about thirty thousand li, suddenly, a wisp of Immortal Mist rose from the sea in front of them.
"Young master!"
An ancient voice sounded, and through the dense fog permeated with Immortal Qi, an emaciated old man appeared.
The person in front was none other than the Burning Heaven ancestor, Chi Hai.
Ji Huo'er and the others had long changed from their past selves; recognizing Chi Hai's aura immediately, they realized: "A Great Emperor!"
However, both of them were unmoved. Even Mei Qian'er, the Supreme Elder from Thousand Fox Mountain, obeyed Qinchuan, so the presence of other Great Emperors was no surprise.
"How's the situation? No one has noticed you here, have they?" Qinchuan stood on the sea surface, his powerful Emperor Soul scanning tens of thousands of li around, making sure no one was paying attention to this area, which set his mind at ease.
The place he was about to go was of such great importance that he didn't want even the slightest mishap.
"After receiving the young master's message, I came straight here. I have been concealing my presence in the void all the time. No one has discovered me," Chi Hai replied.
Back when Qinchuan arrived at the Exquisite Pavilion in Flying Swallow City, he had sent out three messages through the pavilion's spirit butterflies.
One of those messages had been sent to Chi Hai.
Qinchuan communicated through the Spirit Butterfly, instructing Chi Hai to immediately rush to the southeast direction of Divine Demon Island, thirty thousand li away, where they were to wait for further orders.
At that time, the information about the Bronze Stone Coffin in Crystal Mountain had not been exposed. Chi Hai arrived early at the location, concealing himself in the void. Unless the Great Emperor specifically intended to inspect, his presence would naturally go unnoticed.
Qinchuan nodded his head, remained silent, and with a movement of his figure, he took the lead and stepped into the sea.
Chi Hai, Ling Xian'er, and the others didn't hesitate and promptly followed him.
After entering the seabed, everyone's Divine Sense was greatly restricted. Even though Chi Hai had already broken through to the Great Emperor Realm, his Divine Sense was reduced to half its usual extent underwater.
Qinchuan sank down, traversing through the perilous sea area. The number of fierce beasts around them increased, including luminescent sharp-snouted big fish and various other oddly shaped sea creatures.
However, due to the overwhelming Qi emitted by Chi Hai, these sea beasts lay prostrate without moving, not daring to approach and provoke as they saw the group from afar.
Descending an unknown number of li, it was pitch-dark all around, apart from some sporadic silver specks and small fish flickering with light in the distance. Not a single ray of light could be seen.
The deeper they went, the more intense the pressure became, making everyone feel as if their souls were under immense suppression.
Chi Hai, possessing a strong Soul, was unaffected, but Ji Huo'er and the others felt extremely uncomfortable due to the powerful pressure surrounding them.

"Follow my steps!" Suddenly, Qinchuan transmitted his voice, speaking earnestly, "You must be accurate to the finest detail, otherwise it will bring about fatal dangers."
Next, everyone saw Qinchuan's whole body shining, completely crystalline. In the dark underwater world, he was like a piece of immaculate, shining white jade without a single flaw.
Qinchuan began to advance with a set of strange steps.
His movement technique was too peculiar. With each step forward, a faint wisp of spiritual energy overflowed from beneath his feet.
That faint spiritual energy flashed by and instantly dissipated into the seawater.
"This is some kind of Formation Breaking movement technique!"
Ling Xian'er and the others realized that they had arrived in front of a Great Formation. To pass through it, one had to follow a specific set of movement techniques, and a single wrong step would trigger the formation's deadly intent.
Fortunately, Chi Hai, Ling Xian'er, and Ji Huo'er were all individuals of exceptional talent.
After observing Qinchuan once, they committed his movements to memory.
The group proceeded in the exact fashion as demonstrated by Qinchuan, moving forward one after another.
Ji Huo'er and the others felt as if they were forging ahead through time and space, sensing a feeling of void-shattering disruption around them, and a vast, bleak breath brushed over their faces.
After a burst of divine light, they passed through the Great Formation. Ji Huo'er and the others found they had entered the midst of rising cliffs on both sides.
Luminous Pearls embedded on the sides of the sea cliffs twinkled with multicolored light, illuminating the area.
Qinchuan continued without stopping and said, "The formation ahead is different from the previous one. The Formation Breaking method changes every moment. To pass through the Great Formation, you must remember this mental method!"
As he spoke, Qinchuan transmitted a mental method into the sea of consciousness of the three others.
The three of them were solemn.
The complexity of the formation they had just encountered would have been difficult for even a Great Emperor to unravel without Qinchuan leading the way, and there was yet a second one ahead.
After the three grasped the method fully, Qinchuan once again set out to traverse the formation in front.
Although the second formation was slightly more complex compared to the first, the three did not take much time and, using the mental method, they passed through safely and soundly.
Once everyone had crossed the second formation, the surrounding area was well-lit, their vision returned to normal, and the third formation fully revealed itself in front of them.
It was a passage that appeared incredibly tranquil. The entire hallway seemed harmless, with even a bit of Immortal Qi flickering within, somewhat spirited.
But everyone knew that beneath this calm exterior, there surely lay intense lethal mechanisms.
By this time, Ji Huo'er and the others also wore extremely serious expressions.
"Where exactly are we heading? Such a terrifying and strict formation—just one of them would prevent outsiders from entering, yet there are three set up?"
