Chapter 651 – Heaven Slaying Earth Burying
Chapter 651 – Heaven Slaying Earth Burying
The Dark Night Supreme Seat had already arrived. As Yama entered, the nine stone doors closed, blocking all outside perception.
Qin Yu went straight to the point. He asked, “Yama, tell us all that you know.”
Yama nodded. Her ice cold voice flowed out from her dark gold mask. “The change occurred suddenly. By the time I realized it I had already fallen into their trap. Three God Slaying Ballistas shot at me simultaneously. I was suppressed by the power of the rules so I couldn’t avoid them, and as a result my avatar fell into a hopeless situation. In the final moments I had no choice but to blow up my avatar and send the Samsara treasure back to the Demonic Path’s small world.”
The Dark Night Supreme Seat frowned. “In other words, you didn’t even see your opponent before your avatar was killed?”
Yama fiercely turned around, “Supreme Seat may try experiencing being locked onto by three God Slaying Ballistas and then being sneak attacked by someone else. I’d like to see if you can avoid it!”
“Humph!” The Dark Night Supreme Seat had an ugly complexion.
Qin Yu said, “It isn’t the time for the two of you to argue right now. The Zhao Empire reveres the will of my Demonic Path and dispatched an army of three million to help the Qin Empire. With the current situation, the Demonic Path must give them a suitable confession. Moreover, the matter of the Qin Empire betraying the Demonic Path must be handled as soon as possible.”
He said without expression, “Although Yama never saw her enemy, we all know that the betrayal of the Qin Empire is related to the Immortal Sect. The Zhao Empire’s three million strong army not being immediately slain is the bait to force one of us out.”
The Dark Night Supreme Seat sneered, “Even if we know it’s a trap, do we still leap in?”
Qin Yu lightly said, “The Demonic Path has been pushed into a wall this time. No matter what scruples you may have, we must go to the Qin Empire and bring this matter to a close…otherwise, how can the Demonic Path ever stand tall in the Land of Divinity and Demons again? And what face would any of us have in wielding the authority of the Demonic Path?”
The Dark Night Supreme Seat’s face darkened but he had no choice but to acknowledge that this was a fact. No matter how reluctant he was, he could only keep silent.
Qin Yu stood up and decisively said, “I will invite the Dao Arena Master. Once he arrives, we will immediately head to the Qin Empire…I also want to know just what sort of great present the Immortal Sect has prepared for us!”
…
Holy Palace –
Qin Yu faced Ning Ling and You Qi with a smile. He said, “Don’t worry, I am going to Great Qin together with the Dark Night Supreme Seat and the Blue Skies Yellow Springs Yama. The Dao Arena Master will also be following in secret. Even if this is a trap that the Immortal Sect has arranged, it is impossible for them to pose any threat to us.” He stood up and swept his eyes over the two women, “I’ll be leaving. You can wait for me to return without worry.”
He turned and walked away. Then, the warmth in Qin Yu’s eyes rapidly faded away, becoming icy cold. He suddenly realized that if he didn’t eliminate the Immortal Sect then he would never have any future days of peace.
Whether the Dark Night Supreme Seat and Blue Skies Yellow Springs Yama were willing to do this or not, the betrayal of the Qin Empire had left them with no choice. Just as Qin Yu had said, the Demonic Path had been forced into a wall. If this matter could not be quelled, the Demonic Path would lose their ability to deter the world. If that happened, it would lead to a series of unimaginable consequences.
When Qin Yu arrived, the two of them were discussing with each other, worry in their eyes. This was because they both came in their true bodies!
They knew that the Immortal Sect was plotting in secret. If they went to the Qin Empire, they would inevitably face off against the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Nether Domain Master. If they went with their avatars, that would only be courting death.
The Dark Night Supreme Seat said, “Holy Monarch, should we wait a little longer? There are still many things we don’t know about the current situation. If we act rashly then there might be unforeseen dangers!”
Qin Yu shook his head, “We can wait, but the Zhao Empire’s captured army of three million cannot wait, Handan City cannot wait, and no one beneath the heavens can wait!” He looked at Yama, “Your avatar was killed and you suffered a backlash. Your true body is in a weakened state right now. After arriving at the Qin Empire, act accordingly.”
Yama said, “Thank you for the reminder, Holy Monarch. Then, let us go.”
“Good!”
Qin Yu flicked his sleeves. With a loud rumble, the phantom of the Holy Palace appeared in the skies above. A formidable aura erupted, instantly turning into a spatial channel.
Shua –
Qin Yu and Yama walked inside. The Dark Night Supreme Seat’s complexion was pale but he had no choice but to follow behind the two.
The Demonic Path’s three factions had always united to resist the Immortal Sect. If anything were to happen to the Holy Palace and Blue Skies Yellow Springs lineage, then all that awaited the Dark Night Demon Region was inevitable destruction.
In fact, they would suffer a fate even more miserable than the Holy Palace or Blue Skies Yellow Springs. After all, the Demonic Path cultivators that were brutal and overbearing were mostly from the Dark Night Demon Region.
…
Qin Empire –
With Red Sand Valley as the center, the surrounding 100,000 miles was covered in fog. Even though one could see the great sun hanging above in the skies, it was chillingly white and released no warmth as it covered the ground in a pale light.
Throughout the world, countless black columns of smoke shot into the skies. This smoke didn’t come from burning flames. Rather, what lay at the end of these columns of smoke were the unconscious Zhao Empire soldiers. They had been placed in deeply dug pits in the ground. Their bodies were stacked up in a haphazard mess and their exposed faces were twisted with pain and despair.
A black mountain broke free from the fog. The mountain was sharp and steep like a spear pointing into the heavens. It released a terrifying aura.
At the peak of the black mountain, there was a black temple. The Buddhist Nation Sovereign, Nether Domain Master, and Emperor Ying all stood in front of it, various expressions on their faces.
“This is the legendary Black Sky Observer? I always thought it was a rumor; I never expected to see it with my own eyes.” Emperor Ying sighed, a trace of dread on his face.
The Nether Domain Master lightly said. “In this world, all illusions come from truth. Legends and myths are the same. The Black Sky Observer has limitless power, but the price to actuate it is too costly and harmful, even wounding the heavens. Thus, ever since the Immortal Sect obtained it, we have been suppressing it until this day.”
In the myths of ancient times, a black temple would appear and all life within 100,000 miles would become extinct. All living beings would have their souls drawn out and they would lose their minds.
Later, several gods appeared and fought with it. The battle was intense and fierce and finally the gods disappeared along with the temple.
This was what was recorded in the ancient texts concerning the Black Sky Observer. Word of it was passed down through countless fables, as if it was a splendidly made up story…but now it was seen that the Black Sky Observer truly existed. Then, the records in the ancient texts were likely true too.
But as for why it would be obtained by the Immortal Sect and hidden until today, that was a secret destined for no one to find out.
With the Zhao Empire’s three million strong army as the source of strength, powering this legendary Black Sky Observer that was said to have the strength to destroy the heavens and earth, a Heaven Slaying Earth Burying Array formation was laid down. This was the great present that the Immortal Sect had prepared for the Demonic Path…to be more exact, it was the celebratory gift for Qin Yu’s marriage!
The Buddhist Nation Sovereign suddenly looked up. He said, “They’re here.” Infinite Buddhist light surged in his eyes and phantoms of buddhas appeared there. Each one had expressions of grief or rage and their chanting hymns filled the world. The black columns of smoke began to condense into reality as loud bellowing sounds spread out.
Even though the Zhao Empire soldiers imprisoned in the pits below were unconscious, loud groans of pain still came from the depths of their throats. Their twisting and distorting bodies proved how much pain they were suffering right now.
Faint traces of white gas flew out from the orifices of their heads. Like oil being splashed on flames, they caused the black columns of spoke to grow larger.
Space blew apart without warning. A wild strength recklessly spread out, ripping open cracks in space that extended as far as one could see.
Qin Yu took a step forward. Yama and the Supreme Seat followed close behind. The aura of supreme beings erupted without reservation. Waves spread over the flat land, wildly spreading in all directions.
This was a trap that the Immortal Sect had laid down for them. Since they entered the trap on their own initiative, they couldn’t hide their whereabouts. If so, they might as well appear openly and honestly, forcing the Immortal Sect to play all their cards on the table.
The massive twisted space covered everything up, but one could still feel the powerful aura within. It was sticky like black mud, capable of swallowing all things.
Qin Yu’s expression was light. “Let’s go.” He took a step forward. Like a piece of gravel falling into a still lake, ripples appeared as he passed through the warped space.
All he saw were black columns of smoke everywhere. They emitted loud rumbling sounds, like the roaring of devils.
But at this time, what attracted his eyes the most was a black mountain in the distance. Qin Yu’s pupils fiercely shrank. An intense feeling of threat came from it.
“Black Observer!” Yama shouted, startled.
The Dark Night Supreme Seat paled. “No wonder they suppressed the Zhao Empire’s army and didn’t kill them…it was to use them as sacrifices…we were tricked!” His ice-cold eyes swept over Qin Yu and he continued to say, “We must leave immediately. It is said that the Black Observer has the power to destroy the heavens and earth, enough to pose a threat to you and I!”
Emperor Ying’s voice echoed through the world. “The three of you coming to my Qin Empire is the unsurpassed honor of my nation. You cannot leave so easily.”
He rose up into the air and faced Qin Yu and the others. A formidable aura broke free from his body, becoming stronger and stronger until it surpassed some limit.
Within his chest, his emotions surged. Emperor Ying’s eyes brightened. Ancestors, do you see what is happening today? I am finally leading the Qin Empire to openly face the Demonic Path! Everything that the Qin Empire suffered, all of that hatred and humiliation, will be clawed back!
A supreme being of the world…Emperor Ying had also surpassed the line of life and death and reached the summit of the world!
