Stellar Transformation
Chapter 284: Season 11 Episode 42 Blood Spirit Grass
In the most perilous regions of the Extreme Cold Domain, blade winds and spatial rifts may appear. However, at this moment, Ao Feng’s group and Qin Yu’s group had both become aware of each other’s presence. The atmosphere instantly grew tense, and Man Qian, who had been deceived by Du Zhongjun, was furious and ready to take action.
"Hold on!"
A loud shout rang out, and Ao Feng’s body also shimmered with light, revealing a set of golden Battle Armor that matched Man Qian’s imposing aura. At the same time, Fang Tian and Hua Yan stood behind Ao Feng, their gazes fixed on Man Qian.
Man Qian glared at Ao Feng, "What do you mean by this, Ao Feng? Du Zhongjun played and cheated me. Now, I’m about to punish him, are you going to stop me too?"
Ao Feng naturally knew about Man Qian’s temperament.
The Purple-eyed Bull Demon King’s race, once enraged to the point of seeing red, could be truly terrifying.
"No, it’s not about stopping you. I have a very important matter to ask you," Ao Feng said gravely.
"Nothing is more important than dealing with Du Zhongjun right now. Stand aside, and we can talk about your matter after I’ve finished my fight with Du Zhongjun," Man Qian said with a murderous aura, and seeing Ao Feng not backing down, he coldly huffed, "What now, are you planning to oppose me too?"
As he spoke, Man Qian’s intent to kill also pressed towards Ao Feng.
Cursing ’Mad Bull’ inwardly, Ao Feng wore a smile, "No, I have no intention of opposing Brother Man Qian, but there’s something I really need to ask. Our Dragon Clan, along with the Independent Immortals and Independent Demons, expended countless Heart Power to discover the map to the Ni Yang Realm. But how did you all get here too?"
Hua Yan spoke with a serious expression, "Brother Man Qian, I am also very curious about this. It seems you don’t have the Sky-breaking Map, so how did you know the location of the Ni Yang Realm? Don’t tell us you came to the Death Abyss for a casual stroll; I doubt anyone would believe that."
A casual stroll would hardly occur in such a space where spatial rifts frequently appeared.
Both groups now came to a halt.
Initially, both parties were racing so fast that they had to be extremely cautious of blade winds and spatial rifts. Now, standing still and not moving, guarding against blade winds and spatial rifts became much easier. Most of the people present were focused on the other group.
"A map to the Ni Yang Realm? Haha... You think just because you have it, we don’t?" Man Qian laughed arrogantly.
Hua Yan, Du Zhongjun, Ao Feng, Fang Tian, and the others exchanged glances and communicated silently, but came to no conclusion.
"Having only a map to the Ni Yang Realm serves no purpose if you don’t have the Sky-breaking Map. Even if you arrived at the entrance to the Ni Yang Realm, you wouldn’t be able to enter without it," said True Master Chi Yang, who was behind Hua Yan, his voice laced with disdain.
At this time, Qin Yu was smiling quietly, showing no reaction.
"Brother Qin Yu, did you reveal the map to the Ni Yang Realm to them?" Man Qian’s voice transmission echoed in Qin Yu’s mind.
Qin Yu pondered for a moment.
In fact, right now Hua Yan, Du Zhongjun, and others were already looking at Qin Yu and his brothers with suspicion.
In the eyes of these Upper Realm Envoys, the cultivation levels of Qin Yu and his brothers were far too low. With such low power, there must be a special reason as to why Man Qian and Zong Jue brought them here.
"The more you try to hide, the more they’ll be on guard. By telling them directly, they will assume I received the map from my Sect’s elders and won’t pay me much mind," Qin Yu decided in his heart.
"Brother Man Qian, there’s no need to hide anything, just tell them the truth," Qin Yu said aloud.
Upon hearing Qin Yu’s voice, Ao Feng, Hua Yan, Du Zhongjun, Fang Tian, and the others all looked at Qin Yu in surprise.
Man Qian’s eyes lit up, and he laughed heartily, "That’s the spirit, truly worthy of being my brother." Then, Man Qian turned to Ao Feng, Hua Yan, and the others, "I’ll tell you the truth, the map leading to Ni Yang Realm comes from Brother Qin Yu."
"Impossible!"
Ao Feng was the first to object, "There were originally three Sky-breaking Maps, and at first, one was obtained by Qin Yu, but the one belonging to our Dragon Clan has always been in our possession, and nobody else has ever gotten their hands on it. The map to Ni Yang Realm can only be acquired by combining the three Sky-breaking Maps. How could you possibly have it?"
"Senior Ao Feng, there are no absolutes."
Qin Yu said with a smile, "Does senior truly believe... that the maps to Ni Yang Realm can only be found within the Sky-breaking Maps?"
Listening to Qin Yu’s words, Ao Feng, Hua Yan, Du Zhongjun, Fang Tian, and the others had a moment of realization, all thinking of a possibility. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Besides the Sky-breaking Maps, there might be other treasures that contain the map to Ni Yang Realm.
Facing the surprised and questioning gazes from Ao Feng and his party, Qin Yu just smiled.
"Young Brother Qin Yu, where are your Master Uncle Lan Feng and that Uncle Lan?" Ao Feng suddenly asked. Ao Feng was somewhat puzzled about Lan Feng and even more so about the mysterious Uncle Lan who was said to be even more formidable than Lan Feng’s own senior brother, causing Ao Feng to be deeply curious.
Qin Yu smiled and said, "This time neither Master Uncle nor Uncle Lan came, only the three of us brothers did."
Ao Feng, Hua Yan, Du Zhongjun, and the others exchanged glances.
They already speculated that the map Qin Yu had was most likely from his sect seniors. Yet here was a cultivator who hadn’t even reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm, daring to set foot in the Ni Yang Realm. Weren’t they courting death? Involuntarily, their gaze towards Qin Yu carried a bit of sympathy.
Qin Yu continued to smile gently.
"You guys can fight among yourselves. The powerhouses from the Upper Realm exerted so much effort to break through the barriers between worlds, allowing you to come here, casually using Top-Grade Immortal Artifacts. The general treasures within Ni Yang Realm surely wouldn’t warrant your backers to struggle so desperately. I suppose you are here for some extremely important treasure."
Yet, Qin Yu felt a sense of detachment.
Suddenly, Li’er appeared in his mind.
Li’er’s sweet smile, the days they spent together were so fleeting and enjoyable, every smile, every emotion from Li’er was so captivating. Both Li’er and he were extremely reserved when it came to feelings... but with prolonged companionship, they came to love and understand each other deeply.
"If you can’t even get through Ni Yang Realm, don’t even think about finding Li’er," Uncle Lan’s words still echoed in Qin Yu’s mind.
"What level of cultivation must you reach before you can go find Li’er? You’ll know when you reach Ni Yang Realm."
"In the deepest part of Ni Yang Realm, once you get there, you will know what realm you need to achieve in order to find Li’er."
Every word from Uncle Lan was still clear in Qin Yu’s memory.
But Qin Yu kept all this closely guarded in his heart, never daring to slacken for a moment.
"The treasure you are pursuing, I don’t know if it’s the same one I seek. If it’s not the same, I might not contend with you for it. I will just act like an ordinary cultivator in front of you. But if the treasure you’re pursuing is indeed the exact same one I am after... then you can’t blame me for being merciless then," Qin Yu said as he looked at the Four Great Ambassadors, his eyes exuded calmness.
Nobody knew that at this very moment, the Sword Immortal Puppet hidden within Qin Yu had been filled with nine Top-Grade Primordial Spirit Stones by him. Now, the Sword Immortal Puppet had achieved its strongest form.
Qin Yu was now quietly following behind those experts. If their goals differed from his, he would be very compliant. But if they all had the same target, the true fangs of Qin Yu, a Ninth-level Golden Immortal Sword Immortal, would be revealed as he would unleash his strongest attack power!
"Brother Qin Yu, you and the others step back a bit," Man Qian suddenly said.
Qin Yu, Hou Fei, Hei Yu, Zong Jue, and Yu Liang each began to retreat.
"Ao Feng, now you know the answer to the question you wanted to ask, so you should also retreat. I must settle accounts with this Du Zhongjun properly. No one has ever dared to mock me like this, yet he, Du Zhongjun, has the audacity. I shall make him understand... the Purple-eyed Bull Demon King is not to be trifled with or insulted."
Man Qian’s voice was cold, but the purple glow in his eyes intensified.
A deep, resonant bull’s hum began to slowly rise around them...
"Brother Man Qian, but..." Ao Feng still wanted to say more, but Man Qian suddenly glared at him with a bullish gaze, and Ao Feng’s words were abruptly choked in his throat.
"Man Qian, don’t think that just because you are the Purple-eyed Bull Demon King, that you are some super divine beast, and you are so remarkable. If you really want to kill me, do it. Don’t forget that I am an elite disciple of the Blood Demon Demon Path, and also an envoy from the Demon World. If you want to fight, then come on."
Anger flared in Du Zhongjun.
A suit of blood-red battle armor also appeared on Du Zhongjun’s body.
Top-grade demon artifact!
The weapons and battle armors of the envoys from the various upper realms were all of the highest quality, but these armors had long been bound by blood recognition to their owners and would consume a considerable amount of energy when used. Because energy couldn’t be replenished in the Extreme Cold Domain, the envoys from all realms had done their best to avoid the knife winds.
And at this moment—
The knife winds that slashed against those battle armors couldn’t inflict the slightest injury. The defense of top-grade Immortal Artifacts (Demon Artifacts, Demon Artifacts) is extraordinarily strong.
"Blood Demon Demon Path? Bullshit!"
With a cold shout, Man Qian ’swooshed’ and shot up into the sky, turning into a black flash descending from the heavens, like a black Flood Dragon crashing down, with ripples spreading out to all directions in space. The ’black Flood Dragon’ mercilessly smashed down toward Du Zhongjun, clad in blood-red armor below.
As powerful as Du Zhongjun was, he immediately dodged to avoid Man Qian’s hateful strike.
There was a thunderous boom.
Then a series of cracking noises rang out, and the ice that was who knows how many tens of thousands of meters thick cracked open, creating several massive deep trenches. At this moment, Man Qian’s hands were holding a huge black Wolf Fang Club with sinister and terrifying spikes on it.
"Run, I’d like to see where you can run to?"
Man Qian’s wild laughter rang out, but his entire being turned into multiple afterimages. Another blood-red afterimage collided with his own, and the sound of earth-shattering clashes resounded non-stop, while the icy ground continued to fracture.
In just the blink of an eye, the two had clashed at least a hundred times.
The two separated.
Man Qian was as imposing as a rainbow, his right hand gripping the handle of the Wolf Fang Club, his murderous aura even more fierce.
On the other hand, Du Zhongjun’s face was pale, with blood slowly seeping from the corner of his mouth, clearly already sustaining serious injuries.
"Man Qian, don’t get cocky just because you have strong skills, as if you’re so great. Remember, never push me into a corner. I’m here on a mission from Lord Blood Demon Emperor, and although I don’t want to use that thing right now, if you really wish to take my life, you can’t blame me for fighting with all I’ve got."
Du Zhongjun’s eyes flashed with cold light as he stared at Man Qian ahead.
In Du Zhongjun’s right hand had already appeared a vermillion pill, with bursts of blood-red halos constantly circulating around it.
"Blood Spirit Grass!"
Ao Feng and Hua Yan couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
Man Qian’s face also changed.
However, people from the Mortal World such as Fang Tian, Zong Jue, Qin Yu, and others all understood very clearly, this vermillion pill must be an extremely remarkable one; its fame within the realms of Immortals, Demons, and Beasts must be quite significant.
After a moment of silence, Man Qian sneered, "Fine, fine. If you consume the Blood Spirit Grass, your strength indeed will surpass mine. But I’m confident I can endure past the duration of the Blood Spirit Grass’s effectiveness. However, even if I were to kill you, I’d likely be gravely injured. I’ll spare you this time. We’ll see who gets that treasure in the Ni Yang Realm."
Du Zhongjun inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.
He had the Blood Spirit Grass, but he believed Man Qian had a trump card as well. He had only taken it out to threaten Man Qian because he had just felt Man Qian’s intent to kill.
As expected, Man Qian didn’t dare to risk grave injury at such a critical time.
"Isn’t this better? Right now, we should all join forces. Once we reach the Ni Yang Realm, everyone can show their own skills, and whoever gets that treasure can truly be said to have earned it with their ability. Let’s hurry on our way now," said Ao Feng with a smile.
Hua Yan and Du Zhongjun also led their own forces and followed along.
"We should get moving as well," said Qin Yu with a smile.
Man Qian, Zong Jue, and the others also set off simultaneously.
At this time, two groups of people had already converged into one. Although there were barriers between the two groups, no one made a move at this time.
"I’m just wondering about one thing, even if you get to the entrance of Ni Yang Realm, how will you get in?" Ao Feng suddenly turned back to look at Man Qian and people like Qin Yu.
Man Qian sneered, "We naturally have our ways. Don’t worry, we won’t be competing for your Sky-breaking Map."
"Could it again be because of this Qin Yu?" Du Zhongjun turned to look at Qin Yu, and people like Hua Yan, Ao Feng, and Fang Tian also turned to look at him.
Qin Yu nodded with a smile, "I’m sure that the seniors already know, to enter the Ni Yang Realm, one must rely on the Sky-breaking Sword Energy within the Sky-breaking Map."
"Correct," Du Zhongjun, Hua Yan, and the others all nodded.
Qin Yu continued, "Then have you ever thought about why my junior uncle Lan Feng would know the ’Sky-breaking Sword Technique’? With that said, those who understand, understand. Those who don’t, let it be." Having said this, Qin Yu chose not to say more, instead continuing to move forward with Hou Fei and the others.
"Lan Feng knows Immortal Emperor Ni Yang’s ’Sky-breaking Sword Technique,’ the Sky-breaking Sword Energy in the Sky-breaking Map..."
Ao Feng, Hua Yan, and the group began to wildly guess in their hearts, while Qin Yu, who was quietly making his way, had a hint of a smile on his face.
(The treasures that Uncle Lan left for Qin Yu in the Ni Yang Realm, are they the same treasures that the Four Great Ambassadors are after? Hehe...)
