Chapter 1496 - 1429: The Harsh Environment

The mysterious lady asked, "Then what are you worried about?"

Qin Feiyang said, "The last time you entered the divine relic, it should have been ten thousand years ago!"

The mysterious lady nodded.

Qin Feiyang said solemnly, "Have you ever thought that ten thousand years ago, it was a pseudo-god, and today, ten thousand years later, might it have already stepped into the War God realm?"

The mysterious lady was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "I really hadn't thought about that."

Qin Feiyang sighed, "If it has indeed stepped into the War God realm, then we can only pray that it has always been asleep."

Tan Wu and the others were also feeling heavy-hearted.

The Hellhound said, "It's puzzling to me; wasn't it said that pseudo-gods couldn't enter the first layer? How can there be a pseudo-god-level gigantic python?"

"That's a question for the creator of the divine relic."

"Because only he has that capability; perhaps that gigantic python was left by the creator."

The mysterious lady said.

"The creator..."

"No Bond..."

Qin Feiyang murmured.

I really wish I could meet this mysterious being.

...

In the midst of their conversation, two gleams of light suddenly appeared in the passage ahead.

"Is it the end?"

Everyone stared fixedly at those two gleams of light.

Roar!

But at this moment.

A deafening beast roar sounded ahead.

Following closely.

A gigantic black beast emerged from the storm.

It resembled a Violent Ape, towering over ten zhang tall, its whole body covered in pitch-black fur like steel needles, glimmering with a chilling light.

"How is this possible?"

"Isn't the space-time storm strong enough to kill even a War God? How can there be a ferocious beast here?"

Qin Feiyang and the others were shocked.

"Retreat quickly!"

Tan Wu shouted.

This gigantic beast can travel freely through the space-time storm; its cultivation must have reached an unparalleled level.

It might even surpass a War God!

Facing such an entity, even with pseudo-gods like Elder Qin around, they would likely face only a path to destruction.

"Don't retreat!"

But before Tan Wu's words fell, the mysterious lady shouted immediately.

Roar!

The gigantic beast charged at Qin Feiyang and the group, roaring continuously, its fangs sharp and sinister.

Both its arms were as thick as water barrels, filled with a destructive power.

"It's not real, it's an illusion."

The mysterious lady said.

"An illusion?"

Everyone was astonished.

"Yes."

"Everyone who enters must also face this illusionary challenge."

"If you can't withstand the challenge and flee, even with the protection of elixir fire, you will be annihilated by the space-time storm."

"Therefore, at this moment, you must not flee, but bravely face it."

"I remember back then, two pseudo-gods died here because they were too afraid and ran away."

The mysterious lady said solemnly.

Upon hearing these words, Qin Feiyang and the others broke out in cold sweat.

If the mysterious lady wasn't present, they really would have fled, and then the consequences would have been unimaginable.

At the same time, they cursed the creator of the divine relic in their hearts.

Such a dangerous place, suddenly a ferocious beast appears, anyone would be scared.

Isn't this intentionally causing harm?

The gigantic beast roared and approached, raising its huge hand as large as a dustpan, and slapped toward Qin Feiyang and the group!

This scene was really too realistic.

Whether it was the appearance of the gigantic beast or the terrifying ferocity, there was no difference from reality.

Knowing it was fake, but watching this scene, Qin Feiyang and the others' hearts almost leapt out of their chests.

The giant hand came down, and Feng Ranran, Lo Dan, and Zhao Yu, the three women, even instinctively closed their eyes.

But in the end.

Nothing happened.

After the giant hand hit down, it dissipated instantly like air.

The gigantic beast before their eyes also vanished into thin air.

"It's truly frightening."

Ling Yu patted his chest, still with lingering fear.

"Indeed!"

"Without a reminder, it's impossible to tell this was just an illusion."

Tan Wu said.

"Tch!"

"Look at your cowardly behavior, even if it were real, so what? If one comes, this emperor will kill one; if a pair comes, this emperor will kill a pair."

The Hellhound said disdainfully.

Everyone rolled their eyes.

This guy was previously more afraid than anyone else, even hiding behind Tan Wu. Now that it disappeared, it comes out to show off?

Tan Wu was right, this brat is indeed shameless.

Everyone steadied themselves and looked again at those two points of light.

The points of light had grown to the size of washbasins.

There was a long distance between the two points of light.

The mysterious lady said, "The point of light on the left is the entrance to the first layer, and the point on the right is the entrance to the second layer. Are you all ready?"

Qin Feiyang and the others nodded, eyes filled with anticipation.

For ordinary people, entering such an unknown place, the mood would definitely be tense and apprehensive.

But for monsters like Qin Feiyang and Ling Yu, their hearts held only anticipation.

After five breaths.

The points of light had become as large as a dustpan.

After twenty breaths.

The size of the points of light had grown to more than three zhang, like two full moons, emitting dazzling radiance!

At last.

They could clearly see the surroundings of those two points of light.

The hundred-zhang area around the two points of light was a vacuum zone, without a wisp of storm and without anything else.

"Feiyang, I believe you can definitely become a god in the first layer. I'll wait for you in the second layer."

Luk Jiajin said.

Qin Feiyang laughed, "I won't keep you waiting long."

Luk Jiajin nodded.

After a few breaths.

A group of people entered the vacuum zone.

The barrier formed by the flames of heavenly thunder and ice flames automatically dispersed.

At the moment the barrier dispersed, a strong suction emerged from the two entrances.

Qin Feiyang, the lady from the Dragon Phoenix Building, Tan Wu, the Hellhound, and Ling Yu were uncontrollably pulled towards the left entrance.

The mysterious lady, Elder Qin, Luk Jiajin, the lady's teacher from the Dragon Phoenix Building, and the middle-aged man were uncontrollably pulled towards the right entrance.

"Mother, teacher, uncle, take care!"

With the Dragon Phoenix Building lady's shout, the people on both sides entered the entrance and instantly vanished without a trace.

...

On a vast plain.

Ah…

Suddenly.

With a scream, a figure fell from the sky like a meteor, crashing heavily into the center of the plain, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"Damn it, why is the landing like this?"

"If my cultivation was a bit weaker, wouldn't I just fall to my death?"

An angry voice immediately echoed in the dust.

Following that.

A young man in white clothes limped out of the dust, rubbing his butt and cursing under his breath.

Indeed!

This person was Qin Feiyang.

But at this moment, he was disheveled and extremely embarrassed.

And after that fall just now, his whole body felt as if it were about to fall apart, aching tremendously.

Originally, he thought he would land smoothly on the ground, or be directly transported to the ground.

But to his surprise, he fell from above.

Isn't this deadly?

Fortunately, his cultivation was strong enough; otherwise, he would have ended up dead.

"Phew!"

Qin Feiyang exhaled and casually patted the dust off his body, then looked around.

"Huh?"

Immediately.

He frowned.

This plain was boundless.

But there was nothing on this plain, which could be described as 'not an inch of grass grows'.

The ground was covered with cracks, like a spider web.

Looking around, not even a trace of a fierce beast or a flying insect could be found.

"Is this the Divine Sign?"

Qin Feiyang was stunned.

"Wait!"

Suddenly.

Qin Feiyang was stunned again, why is it so hot?

He looked at his arms, to find his skin was already drenched in sweat.

Swish!

He hurriedly looked up at the sky and his body immediately froze.

The sky was boundless, with not a single cloud.

But!

The sky here had ten Furious Suns hanging.

Not mistaken!

There were ten suns in the sky.

The ten suns were lined up, like planets in a celestial alignment, emitting scorching heat, roasting the land.

"No wonder there isn't even a blade of grass here; turns out there are ten eunuchs."

Qin Feiyang murmured.

Sweat like rain, fell onto the sizzling ground, making a sizzling sound.

Buzz!

Qin Feiyang immediately waved his hand, forming a Battle Intent barrier to shield against the harsh sunlight.

Because the temperature here was too high, even though he was a Four-star War Emperor, if not prevented, he would eventually become weak due to lack of water, even lose his life.

But after the barrier appeared, he did not feel any coolness; it was still so hot.

"What's going on?"

This left Qin Feiyang dumbfounded.

After repeated tests, he finally came to a shocking result: the Battle Intent barrier couldn't block out the sunlight's radiance.

In other words, the barrier was just for show, completely ineffective.

"How absurd!"

Qin Feiyang raised an eyebrow.

It seems the immediate task is to find a water source.

But here, will there be a water source?

With such hot weather, even if there was a water source, it would have probably dried up.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Never thought, the grand Four-star War Emperor would also have a day struggling for water.

But fortunately, he still has the ancient castle.

The ancient castle must be able to avoid the high temperatures here.

Swish!

Qin Feiyang's heart moved as he prepared to enter the ancient castle.

But suddenly.

He raised an eyebrow, scanning the void.

In the void, he couldn't sense the presence of Essence.

Essence is something that everything in the world needs.

Like human cultivation, fierce beast cultivation, all need Essence.

But because before, Qin Feiyang always refined Battle Intent pills for cultivation, he didn't particularly care about Essence.

But here, this problem can't be ignored.

Because the Battle Intent pills will eventually run out.

Although he also cultivated a field of herbs, it must be known, the herb field is inside the ancient tower, which is now with the old man.

In other words, the herb field can't be relied on.

"Why didn't anyone tell me there's a lack of Essence here? Otherwise, I could have prepared more herbs for Battle Intent pills!"

Qin Feiyang was extremely annoyed, trying to fly, open portals, or awaken the Image Crystal Stone, none of which worked.

"Scorching temperature, scarce Essence, and various restrictions, for a cultivator, this is truly a brutal place."

Qin Feiyang sighed, his thoughts moved, and he entered the ancient castle.

Seeing this familiar place, Qin Feiyang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Because once here, he immediately felt cool, without sensing any high temperature.

However.

As the mysterious lady said, Fatty, Lu Hong, the Viper, Wealthy Elixir King, Luk Zheng, and the Wolf King, Double-winged Snow Eagle and other beasts, all vanished without a trace.

In the entire ancient castle at this moment, there was only him.

To be honest.

Having been accustomed to being with everyone, now looking at the empty and lonely ancient castle, for a moment, Qin Feiyang was quite unaccustomed to it.
