Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 262: Sect Leader of the Spirit Corpse Sect


The power of the Sect Leader of the Spirit Corpse Sect, Chu Lingshan, was well-known in Liangshan Province. Rumor had it that he had a son, but he had never appeared in the Sect.

It was said that the Sect Leader's only son had exceptional talent, incomparable to ordinary geniuses.

From the day he was born, he had lived in the Wan Shi Mountain for over ten years without ever descending the mountain. The Yin Evil Qi was as natural to him as drinking water.

Now, when Zhao Lu saw a martial artist with the surname Chu who could ignore the Yin Evil Qi and nurture a Flying Corpse at an incredible speed, he couldn't help but speculate about Chu Nan's identity.

At that moment, Chu Nan slowly stood up and said, "Senior Brother, you continue, Junior Brother will go ahead."

After speaking, Chu Nan continued to walk forward.

Seeing this, Zhao Lu was shocked and said, "Junior Brother, where are you going?"

Chu Nan, somewhat surprised, didn't understand why this guy was so concerned about him. So, he said, "I'm going to the core region."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lu gasped. The core region was a place even true disciples dared not easily venture into, yet Chu Nan could speak of it so casually.

It seemed the rumors were true, the Sect Leader's son could handle the Yin Evil Qi as easily as drinking water.

This made Zhao Lu even more convinced that the Chu Nan before him was indeed the Sect Leader's mysterious son.

Thus, Zhao Lu quickly used a tone with a hint of respect and said, "Junior Brother, take your time, do you need Senior Brother's help?"

Noticing Zhao Lu's inexplicable enthusiasm, Chu Nan frowned slightly, a trace of vigilance rising in his heart.

Unprompted favor is often either traitorous or thieving!

"No need."

Leaving these words, Chu Nan immediately left, no longer paying attention to Zhao Lu.

Watching Chu Nan enter the core region as if taking a stroll, Zhao Lu was nearly one hundred percent convinced, "This person must be the Sect Leader's son."

"Truly worthy of being the Sect Leader's son, such extraordinary charisma!"

Chu Nan, upon entering the core region, had no knowledge of Zhao Lu's thoughts.

After stepping into the core region, he immediately felt a difference in the atmosphere around him. The Yin Evil Qi here was more intense, and the air colder than in the inner region.

Looking in all directions, there were corpses everywhere, and each step Chu Nan took was on top of more than ten corpses.

"There are countless corpses in Wan Shi Mountain. Perhaps I can find a stronger corpse here."

Although he had nurtured a Flying Corpse, Chu Nan was not satisfied. He wanted to find a Spirit Corpse that was at least at the Divine Illumination Realm in life, to refine a Wandering Corpse comparable to a Divine Illumination Realm martial artist.

"Sword Venerable Master, how do you think this Wan Shi Mountain was formed?"

"There are just too many corpses here."

Chu Nan muttered, asking Kui Guang.

Observing these corpses, he found that they were very intact, with almost no injuries other than being somewhat dried up.

It was evident that the martial artists of Wan Shi Mountain seemed to have been killed by an extremely powerful being, merely with their aura. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible for their corpses to remain so intact after death.

Kui Guang, being an ancient existence having lived for untold years, might know the secrets of Wan Shi Mountain.

But surprisingly, Kui Guang didn't respond this time.

With no response, Chu Nan stopped asking, continuing to advance deeper, guided by the Celestial Eye map, not knowing where he was headed.

Eventually, he discovered a new Celestial Eye not marked on the map.

It was a peak, with a circular opening at the top, where Yin Evil Qi erupted like a volcano, forming a storm that stirred the clouds above Wan Shi Mountain.

At this moment, Chu Nan frowned, feeling a tingling sensation in his body.

"The Yin Evil Qi here is almost at my limit..."

Muttering to himself, Chu Nan climbed the peak, feeling the tingling grow stronger the closer he got to the Celestial Eye, as if his Martial Veins were about to freeze.

"Yin Evil Celestial Eye, open!"

Having no choice, Chu Nan opened his Yin Evil Celestial Eye. As it fully opened, the discomfort vanished instantly.

He took out the Flying Corpse, reaching the peak and just a step away from the Celestial Eye.

Unable to find a suitable corpse, he wanted to try letting this Flying Corpse advance to a Wandering Corpse here, gambling on that slim possibility.

"Who's there!"

At that moment, a shout came from the other side of the Celestial Eye, and before Chu Nan could react, a beam of sword light flashed before his eyes.

Slash!

The Flying Corpse in front was cut in half, rolling heavily down the slope.

Chu Nan's eyes widened, immediately summoning the Blood Pattern Sword.

"Didn't I tell you elders not to come here to this Celestial Eye!"

A voice full of anger came, followed by a middle-aged man in white robes walking out, holding a sword.

The middle-aged man's face was somewhat narrow, with black circles around his eyes, sunken cheekbones, skin tight against his bones, resembling a walking skeleton, more so than a Spirit Corpse.

Seeing Chu Nan, the white-robed man was slightly taken aback, incredulous, "A Sect Disciple could reach here?"

Clearly, a Sect Disciple appearing here was beyond his expectations.

While others might not know, he knew very well that this was the core of Wan Shi Mountain, where the Yin Evil Qi was most concentrated and terrifying.

Even true disciples couldn't get here, only a few elders at the ninth level of the Divine Light Realm had the capability to tread this ground.

Moreover, those elders were warned by him.

So there should be no one else here but him.

But today, someone else came, and it was just a disciple of the Yang Wheel Realm.

"How did this kid get here?" The white-robed man was puzzled, but soon he saw the purple light between Chu Nan's eyebrows.

"That is... it can't be wrong, it can't be wrong!" The white-robed man suddenly became extremely excited, even trembling with excitement.

Seeing this, Chu Nan took a step back, wanting to run.

This white-robed man was too terrifying, his gaze on Chu Nan was like that of someone who hadn't seen a woman in hundreds of years suddenly beholding a peerless beauty.

Chu Nan feared this man might pounce on him the next moment.

While Chu Nan was thinking this, the white-robed man indeed lunged, grabbing his wrist, "Yin Evil Celestial Eye, it's truly the Yin Evil Celestial Eye!"

"I've searched for so many years in the Qin Kingdom and never found it, yet today it just presented itself."

Chu Nan was shocked, realizing he couldn't discern the cultivation of the opposite party, this man's aura made him shiver.

Evidently, this man was a strong Sea of Clouds Realm practitioner, not just a novice!

An existence that even the Bronze Puppet couldn't contend with.

The middle-aged man's grip felt like mere bone, causing Chu Nan to feel a chill of horror.

"Senior, if you don't want me here, I'll leave now," Chu Nan said slowly.

Yet the middle-aged man was excited, "Leave? I've been waiting for so long for the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, do you think I'll let you go?"

But quickly, noticing Chu Nan's resistance, his tone softened as he let go, "Young one, don't be afraid, I am Sect Leader Chu Lingshan. I mean no harm, instead, I have a grand opportunity for you!"
