Chapter 485 - The Curse of Death
Progenitor Wen Dao, Wen Dao Elders, Sacred Leader Feiyang and his crew, the three geniuses, and the crowd of rogue cultivators immediately glanced toward the Death Emperor.
“The Flames of Death!”
Jiang Bilan snapped and spat out flames from her mouth.
The flames were pitch-black in color as if they had originated from Hell, emitting a deathly aura.
Soul-Consuming Fire was capable of burning the target’s soul, but these Flames of Death were even more terrifying. Once being engulfed in it, it would consume the lifespan of the target, accelerating their death.
Jiang Bilan had consumed a significant amount of energy to execute these Flames of Death, causing her face to turn pale. However, her actions showed no sign of hesitation, as she fired the Flames of Death downward.
The eyes of Progenitor Wen Dao flickered as he waited for the perfect time before waving the formation flag in his hand. Following this, a hand covered in runes reached out above the cage and grabbed the Flames of Death, before pulling it into the cage and hurling it toward Sacred Leader Qinglong’s figure.
Sacred Leader Qinglong flung his sleeves, unleashing his strength of the Martial Sacred Realm to shatter the Flames of Death. However, the Flames of Death seemed to be unstoppable, which landed onto Sacred Leader Qinglong’s figure and combusted, causing the area within three zhang of Sacred Leader Qinglong to turn into a pitch-black sea of flames.
The crowd could only see Sacred Leader Qinglong age rapidly in the midst of the flames, causing his aura to become weaker.
“Master!”
Tang Qingshan and his crew were infuriated, and prepared themselves to execute their moves.
“We’ve done it!”
Progenitor Wen Dao and his crew became energetic seeing this.
“Bring them out from the cage!”
Jiang Bilan did not glance at Sacred Leader Qinglong. Her eyes were fixated on Qin Nan’s figure.
Progenitor Wen Dao hesitated for a brief while, before he swiftly made up his mind. He flung the formation flag in his hand, causing countless runes to close around the figures of Qin Nan, Tang Qingshan, and the others, and threw them out from the cage.
“Canopy of Death!”
Jiang Bilan had long prepared for this. She uttered a cry, causing her deathly aura to transform into a canopy that enfolded Qin Nan and the rest.
The Canopy of Death was similar to the formation set up by Progenitor Wen Dao and his crew. Although it was not as formidable as the formation, it was more than enough to trap Tang Qingshan’s crew and Qin Nan’s crew within it.
“Sacred Leader!”
Qin Nan’s expression changed tremendously as he uttered a roar.
Following this, inside the cage made of runes, the eyes of Sacred Leader Qinglong glistened as he performed a hand seal.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
A blinding blue light appeared on the figures of Qin Nan, Princess Miao Miao, Gong Yang, Tang Qingshan, and the others, which transformed into dragons coiling around them that reached out their claws to tear the space apart. It appeared that the dragons were trying to bring them to the upper district!
“This——”
Princess Miao Miao and the others had not expected this to happen.
“Qin Nan, don’t you dare run away!”
Jiang Bilan uttered a furious roar as her speed skyrocketed tremendously. Her figure transformed into a ray of black light and fired into the torn space. Her hand turned into claws squashing the azure dragon carrying Qin Nan’s figure and dragged him out from the rift.
A grin appeared on Qin Nan’s face instead of despair.
“Mm?” Jiang Bilan felt something was fishy, and immediately turned her head toward Princess Miao Miao and the rest.
She instantly discovered that Princess Miao Miao, Tang Qingshan and the rest were now dragged deeply into the rift, which was now only an inch small.
Princess Miao Miao and her crew stared at Qin Nan through the tiny gap, their eyes open wide.
At that instant, Jiang Bilan finally came to a realization.
Damn it!
She had fallen for Qin Nan’s bait!
It was obvious that if they were all trying to escape, Jiang Bilan would pursue Qin Nan without a doubt. As such, the others would then have a chance to escape safely.
However, little did Jiang Bilan know that Princess Miao Miao and her crew were totally dumbfounded as well.
They too were clueless of Qin Nan’s plan.
“Farewell.”
Qin Nan’s lips moved slightly.
He clearly knew that he and Sacred Leader Qinglong had no chance of escaping. Therefore, while they were being trapped inside the cage, he had already communicated with Sacred Leader Qinglong to come up with the plan.
He would not mind dying, but he could not drag his friends with him. Princess Miao Miao, Gong Yang, the Longhu Dominator Beast, Sima Kong, and Zhao Fang, or even Tang Qingshan, Peak Leader Duanmu, and the others; they all possessed outstanding talents. They should continue their journey of cultivation in the upper district’s Eastern Continent!
“Qin Nan——”
Princess Miao Miao and the others screamed and struggled to exit from the rift, but the gap had already closed up, leaving pale expressions on their faces.
“Trying to escape? You will all die. Nobody will escape!” However, at that instant, Jiang Bilan’s face became twisted, “Qin Nan, do remember that they will all die because of you!”
“Death upon the unfit, the Curse of Death!”
Jiang Bilan completely went out of her mind. She consumed her life force in order to execute a forbidden technique that fired black rays into the closed rift that landed onto the figures of Tang Qingshan, Peak Leader Duanmu, Peak Leader Zhang, Peak Leader Luo, Princess Miao Miao, Gong Yang, Zhao Fang, the Longhu Dominator Beast, and Sima Kong.
AH! AH! AH!
Eight cries of agony could be heard coming from afar.
Qin Nan’s heart shuddered violently.
“HAHAHAHA! Qin Nan, did you see that? This is the Curse of Death! Have you heard of it before? From now onward, they will experience the torture of death every second, and in eighty-one days, they will turn into pools of blood, with nothing remaining!”
For some reason, Jiang Bilan felt extremely satisfied.
Normally, the Death Emperor would not sacrifice his life force to do something meaningless like this, but he had done it this time!
“Turning into pools of blood…”
Qin Nan’s eyes vibrated vigorously.
An unstoppable fury exploded from his heart!
Why!
Why was the Death Emperor this vicious, to torture his friends at the cost of his life force!
They had nothing to do with this mess!
This Death Emperor was unforgivable!
Buzz!
At that instant, an unimaginable suppression burst out from Qin Nan’s body, as if something had just woken up from a deep sleep.
“Mm?”
Jiang Bilan frowned and glanced at Qin Nan’s figure quickly. The smile on her face froze.
The Martial Spirit!
The mysterious Martial Spirit inside Qin Nan’s body was shuddering violently!
