True Martial World - Chapter 1437

Chapter 1437

From the way the youth spoke, Yi Yun knew he came from the Magnificent Heaven . He got the general idea that the Magnificent Heaven was a Great World in the Sinkhole . And all the factions in that Great World formed an alliance known as Magnificent Heaven .

As a mighty faction that was in no way inferior to the White Lunar Divine Empire, Yi Yun knew that the genius he just chased out was backed by a Divine Lord expert . There was bound to be some trouble as a result . It was only logical . There was no way he could kill everyone he encountered in the passageway .

As such, he ignored the youth, turned around, and walked into the inner sanctum of the Divine Perish Hall .

The moment he entered, the scene changed abruptly . Yi Yun saw a luxuriant grass plain under thick clouds in the sky . They looked like dark clouds that had been coalescing for tens of thousands of years . It was so dark and heavy that the clouds were probably about to release their load .

"The smell of blood?"

Yi Yun closed his eyes to better focus on the area . Someone had died recently in the vicinity but there was no corpse to be seen . He could not determine the cause of death since there were no remains .

"The teleportation token is no longer effective . "

Yi Yun took out his teleportation token and saw that it had already dimmed, having lost its power . Yi Yun knew that the spatial laws of the world he was in was sealed off from the usage of the teleportion array .

He casually crushed the teleportation token to powder . He had no need for it anyway . Since he had come to the ancient battlefield, Yi Yun planned on leaving his name on the World Monolith . Then, he could create one himself . Destroying it would only spur him on .

Yi Yun emanated his psyche perception and realized it was being greatly suppressed . It was now less than ten percent of what it originally was .

Yi Yun did not lower his guard . Instead, he turned even more alert as he walked towards the inner sanctums of the Divine Perish Hall .

…

About tens of thousands of kilometers away, Wan Qing was following Li Fire Divine Lord as they proceeded carefully . By then, they had already encountered bouts of fatal clashes and unending peril .

Aside from Wan Qing, there were about a dozen youths from the Wan family that followed Li Fire Divine Lord . But now, they only had about half that number .

Wan Qing was deeply regretting his choice . If he knew such an outcome would befall them, he would not have followed Li Fire Divine Lord as he stormed into the Divine Perish Hall because of his indignation . He was beginning to think he should not have even come to the ancient battlefield .

The ancient battlefield was highly recommended by many because of the existence of teleportation tokens . It allowed one to go all-out for opportunities in a low-risk environment . But now, they had experienced so many encounters that pushed them to the borders of life and death, with not a single benefit to be seen in the Divine Perish Hall . They might have even been all wiped out if not for Li Fire Divine Lord . He had managed to fend off most of the danger .

"Wait! Don't walk there!"

As Wan Qing wallowed in his regret, he suddenly heard Li Fire Divine Lord shout . Wan Qing froze in fear as he instinctively took a huge step back .

He widened his eyes and saw that just ahead of him was a mudflat . It looked like mud that resulted from a rainy day but the color was even more greenish-yellow .

Apart from Wan Qing, there was another youth walking ahead of him . He was a few steps ahead and in fact, Li Fire Divine Lord was not shouting to warn Wan Qing but the youth .

However, the youth seemed to be spellbound . He stood in front of the mudflat in a daze, motionless .

"Senior Brother Wang, are… are you alright?"

A young girl behind him asked, her voice trembling . The combination of Li Fire Divine Lord's warning and Senior Brother Wang's strange posture made her feel a sense of foreboding .

As though he had heard her voice, Senior Brother Wang finally moved . He tottered his body around, but his appearance drained the color from the girl's face .

Senior Brother Wang seemed to experience millions of years the instant he turned around . His face was now covered in wrinkles and his turbid eyes were mostly covered by his shriveled eyelids . His hair had turned white and clumps were falling out . Following that, his teeth decayed and fell out . Finally, as though his spine had vanished, he slumped straight to the ground .

He had not died and was, in fact, still conscious . He looked at the girl in front of him in pain . He had feelings for her, but now…

"Senior Brother Wang, Senior Brother Wang…" The girl was appalled .

"Netherworld water…" Li Fire Divine Lord drew a gasp . The River of Forgetfulness, one of the twelve legendary Fey Gods, was the combination of two tributaries . One was the River of Forgetfulness and the other was the River of the Netherworld .

The River of Forgetfulness's water could slow down the passage of time, allowing a person to hold on to youthfulness and life . But the River of the Netherworld was the exact opposite . It would quickly pare away a person's life and, since destruction was all too easy, the Netherworld water's effects far exceeded those of the River of Forgetfulness . Just a drop was enough to age a person considerably, snuffing out their vital flames . "

"He can't be saved . The few years he has left in him will only bring pain . " Li Fire Divine Lord sighed as he shot out Sword Qi . It struck Senior Brother Wang's glabella . His body jolted gently before his eyes lost the last bit of luster that was left in them .

Upon seeing this scene, Wan Qing's back broke out into cold sweat . If he had taken a few more steps forward, he would have shared the same outcome!

"Let's go . " Li Fire Divine Lord casually tossed a fireball to cremate Senior Brother Wang's corpse . He continued forward before suddenly coming to a halt .

He saw what seemed like billowing Essence Qi Apocalyptic Fumes surging into the sky far away .

The Essence Qi Apocalyptic Fumes contained horrifying lifeblood powers . Despite the great distance, it was still able to stir all of Li Fire Divine Lord's lifeblood .

This is…

Li Fire Divine Lord's eyes lit up .

There was something seemingly impressive over there!

"Master, that is…"

A white-robed man beside Li Fire Divine Lord felt his heart palpitate as well . He felt that it was a possible opportunity!

"Let's go take a look . Perhaps there's something good!"

A glint flashed in Li Fire Divine Lord's eyes . He was no longer young; therefore, it was difficult for him to leave his name on the World Monolith due to its rules . However, he was not barred from receiving any opportunities . And since his strength far exceeded that of the young disciples, he held a distinct advantage when vying for them .

This was also the reason why many Divine Lords went to the ancient battlefield .

Due to the dangers they had already encountered, the group proceeded carefully towards the Essence Qi Apocalyptic Fumes . The distance of fifty kilometers took them two full hours to cross .

When they circled around a mountain, they finally saw the spot where the Essence Qi Apocalyptic Fumes originated . It left them astounded .

"How could this be…"

Li Fire Divine Lord narrowed his eyes . He saw a fountain source with water spewing out of it . And the water was turbid and greenish-yellow . It effused an indescribable aura of death .

Netherworld water!

Li Fire Divine Lord could determine that the fountain's source was a pool of Netherworld water .

And in the middle of the fountain's source was a plot of land with black sand . Above it grew a tiny tree .

The Essence Qi Apocalyptic Fumes that resonated with his bloodline came from this tiny tree!

The Netherworld water which could quickly erode life or even rot a world was actually capable of nurturing a tiny tree that suffused such terrifying lifeblood powers?
