Chapter 1173A. Problem
Qin Yu should have been among the first people to know that it wouldn’t be easy to reach the mystic realm, because as he hurried along the way, someone caught up to him to deliver him his head.
Of course, the original purpose of this head-giver was to kill Qin Yu and reduce his number of competitors.
The result was obvious. The man had chosen the wrong target, so instead of taking a head, he lost his own. The cream-white stone in his storage treasure became Qin Yu’s spoils of battle.
The reason this stone was mentioned was that its attributes were nearly the same as Qin Yu’s lotus flower.
In other words, the stone and lotus flower were split off from the same thing. They were both keys to the distant mystic realm.
However, when both things were placed together, something unexpected happened. The lotus flower took root and swallowed up the white stone. Or to be more precise, it plundered all the soul power in the white stone.
Then, the white stone turned to ashes and the lotus flower overflowed with color, becoming extremely dazzling.
Old Turtle wiped his drool for a long time before he barely managed to suppress his desire to swallow the lotus flower.
The lotus flower survived for now. As for Old Turtle, his fear of death was at the pinnacle of the world, so the difficulty of suppressing his desire to eat the lotus flower could be imagined.
This showed how drool-worthy the thing that the lotus flower and white stone split off from was.
For this, he could even suppress his desire to continue his life.
To someone like him, this was certainly an incomparably difficult and inconceivable matter.
“Master, you must help me get it! You must!”
Qin Yu didn’t pay attention to him. His eyes flashed as his thoughts raced.
His current situation was that an extremely high rank mystic realm existed deep within the Land of Disorder. And, this mystic realm had something inside it that scattered some of its own strength outside, becoming the keys to enter that mystic realm.
In the process of rushing forward, he would keep meeting people that came to deliver their heads to him. And he feared that this number would be more than three or five.
The true number would likely be astonishing…
This was another question. If something could split off so many keys, how strong was it to begin with? And what was its goal for doing so?
Qin Yu took a deep breath and rubbed his forehead. He felt as if he had stepped into a very large and wide-cast net.
If he were to leave now, that wouldn’t be a problem. But could he really leave?
Not to mention the fact that this involved sustaining Old Turtle’s life, but the appearance of this mystic realm would attract all sorts of formidable cultivators.
The possible fame he could obtain here was greater than passing through the Endless Sea.
Whatever. He would take things one step at a time. He believed that with his strength, as long as he was cautious there was almost no chance he would be killed.
Of course, accidents could always happen.
Five days later.
Qin Yu had already guessed that there would be a massive number of cultivators gathered outside the mystic realm. But only after arriving here did he realize he had underestimated the ability of that thing in the mystic realm which split itself off.
There were many people here. Looking around, there were at least several hundred.
Even if many of the cultivators came in teams, the number of seeds that had been obtained should be more than a hundred.
And even now, there were still people like Qin Yu who were continually streaming in. It was hard to estimate the final number of seeds.
If a cultivator dared to enter the Land of Disorder and fight with their life on the line to seek a better future, they had to be intelligent enough.
If Qin Yu could think of something, they could too. As people gathered in front of the mountain, many of them had ugly complexions.
Oh. It wasn’t mentioned before, but what Qin Yu found based on his senses was a mountain.
It broke through the sea and soared into the heavens. The mountain’s surface was smooth and steep, without any sign of vegetation.
From afar, it resembled a gigantic stalactite placed upside down in the sea.
From the looks of things, there was still some time before the mystic realm opened. Qin Yu’s eyes flashed and he withdrew some distance away.
Darkness wove around his body, forming a black cloud. Qin Yu sat down cross-legged, his eyes closed in meditation.
Confidence didn’t mean arrogance…soon, there would be a great battle. Whether it was the cultivators gathered outside the mystic realm or the mystic realm itself, everything was doomed to be chaotic.
Adjusting his condition and maintaining his peak state was the best choice.
As Qin Yu was meditating, Yun Che and the others took action to rescue a woman from the jaws of a violent creature of the Endless Sea.
This woman had an enchanting appearance. She was also very talkative and well-spoken. Without expending much effort, she became a part of the team.
She often looked up and glanced at Yun Che who stood at the front of the group. At times, a trace of unnaturalness would appear on his face.
The woman smiled. Her expression was a bit shy, and her eyes were bright and limpid as she glanced at him more frequently.
Yun Shi glanced at her big brother and then at the woman he saved. She thought to herself that she had worried for nothing these past years.
So it turned out that her big brother didn’t have a different orientation – he still liked women!
Yun Che angrily slapped her head and said in an admonishing tone, “What kind of ridiculous things are you daydreaming about? Just be careful and hurry along!”
Yun Shi grinned, not angry at all. This big brother that seemed like a block of wood had finally blossomed after several hundred years. He had to grasp this chance or else he would miss it!
She went to the woman’s side. Soon, the two of them held hands, chatting from time to time and laughing brightly.
Two days later, the rescued woman gave something to Yun Che. Her face blushed and she said that it was a thank you gift for saving her.
Yun Che declined a few times without success. Seeing her reddened face, he finally accepted it.
Not long after, they changed direction and rushed deep into the Land of Disorder!
…
Qin Yu discovered he had been mistaken about something.
Strictly speaking, whether he was right or wrong shouldn’t matter, but now that other people were involved, he had to change his attitude accordingly.
He originally planned on ignoring it, but after thinking about it again and again, he finally decided he couldn’t pretend as if he didn’t know anything.
Qin Yu looked into the distance at the talkative Yun Shi as well as the smiling Yun Che.
He glanced over Zhou Huan and Zhou Cheng, and then his eyes fell on the woman.
Coincidentally, he had met this woman before. It was the woman he met before the black stone mystic realm opened who tried to use him as a shield to block the woman chasing after her.
If it was just this, Qin Yu would at most sigh with emotion. The coincidences in the world were far more illustrious and surprising than any story could hope to predict.
But it just so happened that not too far away, he saw the other woman who had been chasing after that woman.
This sounded like a headache, but this was the case. And even more importantly, these two women showed the attitudes of strangers.
On that day, according to his judgment, Qin Yu thought these two women had a grudge with each other. This was the reason they would fight to the death for the round bead, regardless of whether there was the mystic realm or not.
But now, it seemed he was wrong.
However, there was one point that was certain. These two women knew each other, but now they were pretending as if they didn’t know each other.
If something seemed wrong, there had to be a cause!
The darkness around Qin Yu became richer, thoroughly covering him up. Now that he carefully observed these two women, he saw that they cryptically eyed each other a few times.
There really was a problem!
Qin Yu thought for a moment. Then, he raised a hand and tapped between his eyebrows.
Old Turtle cried out, “Master, I am weak right now. Be gentle with me!”
Qin Yu’s lips twitched, speechless. Of course he wouldn’t believe this nonsense.
Although Old Turtle was in a weakened state, just borrowing a bit of his power wouldn’t affect him at all.
His pupils instantly darkened. But, this was different from when Qin Yu became the incarnation of darkness. It was much, much deeper…this was because it was strength that came from the abyss’ will.
Qin Yu was now able to perceive a startling change when he watched these two women. Their bodies shined and black chains wrapped around them, their surface shining with runes.
Looking at these runes, Qin Yu discovered something else. What formed the chains was actually a strange type of soul strength.
It was cold and gloomy…but in essence, it came from the same source as the lotus flower in his hand.
He closed his eyes and opened them again. The darkness had vanished. Qin Yu rubbed his forehead. With his current soul intensity, it was a great burden to borrow Old Turtle’s strength.
It was fine for a short period of time, but if he maintained it for too long…without considering whether Old Turtle could keep it up, his eyes might be blown out first.
But now, Qin Yu wasn’t in the mood to think about this. As the ache in his mind relaxed, he let out a deep breath.
It was obvious that these two women were related to the mystic realm in front of them. If he focused on them, he might be able to obtain an unexpected harvest.
Of course, preventing Yun Che and Yun Shi from getting into danger was also an important reason. After all, they had traveled together and this brother and sister duo had looked after him.
Upon coming to a decision, Qin Yu no longer looked at the women. If they discovered him it would be bad.
The upside-down stalactite that broke out of the sea and pointed up towards the dim skies began to gradually surge with light.
It was a faint white light, tranquil and soothing, completely out of sync with the surrounding environment.
As this light appeared, the strong winds calmed down and the roaring waves came to a rest. The restlessness in everyone’s hearts also smoothed over.
All eyes gathered towards the creamy white light on the surface of the mountain, and their gazes started to heat up.
No one lacked basic judgment ability. Everyone’s hearts suddenly accelerated, violently beating and leaving their mouths parched and dry
Treasure!
A true treasure!
This mystic realm must contain a good fortune that far surpassed their imagination.
