The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty who had entered the Serene Abyss were all slaughtered. Sanmu and Taihui did not stay for long. They continued to protect Qingzhi Han and continued to venture deeper. It seemed that the power at the end of the Serene Abyss was also attracting them.
As for Zhou Wudao, who had escaped, Zhan Yan ordered Lupi to chase after him. Naturally, he would not survive.
There was no suspense at all about this.
However, Meng Xiang returned and said something that surprised Sanmu and Taihui. They could not stop Li Chuji from moving forward.
With Meng Xiang's cultivation, he could not stop Li Chuji?
Sanmu and Taihui were skeptical. However, Meng Xiang admitted it himself, which proved that Li Chuji was still in the Serene Abyss. Perhaps he was not far behind them. Sooner or later, they would bump into each other.
Zhan Yan's face was a little unhappy. A powerhouse at the peak of the Tao Realm could not stop a mere Li Chuji?
Did Meng Xiang go easy on him?
However, Meng Xiang was not such a person. Otherwise, he would not have been sent.
At this time, Zhan Yan realized that he might have underestimated the ability of Dendi's descendant. However, he did not care too much and did not blame Meng Xiang for his incompetence.
At this point, since Li Chuji dared to chase after him, he wanted to see if he still had the courage to compete with him, the successor of the War God Temple. In terms of status, Dendi's descendant was qualified to compete with him. It did not lower Zhan Yan's status. In fact, he was even looking forward to it.
"Burning everything and refining other flames. This is Zhan Yan's ability, Hellfire."
In the Serene Abyss, a group of powerhouses flew slowly toward the end. On the way, Tianyun told Qin Hao about Zhan Yan's situation.
This was not a secret. The forces of the Five Realms of the East Continent all knew about Zhan Yan's ability. However, Qin Hao did not know.
After all, when Dendi was at his peak, Zhan Yan's mother was still in someone else's placenta.
"Hellfire, ranked fifth on the continent's Soulfire List. No wonder you are a little arrogant."
Qin Hao calmly smiled. Zhan Yan's soulfire rank was much higher than Duan Zijue's, and he had also been adopted by the Battle Tower. His status had been noble since he was a child, and he had been crowned as the young master of the War God Temple. How could he not be arrogant?
Hellfire could burn all things, and it could refine other Dao flames. Its power was indeed not to be underestimated.
In his previous life, it was even stronger than the Sunset Flame that Qin Hao obtained.
However, the Hellfire could only stay in the Nine Underworlds. How could it burn the world's number one tyrannical red lotus?
In the mortal world, other than the Dragon King's Flame, there was no other flame that dared to compete with the Red Lotus. As for the Dragon King's Flame, it had long ceased to exist along with the extinction of the Ancient Fire Dragon bloodline.
"Hellfire belongs to the dark attribute. There are many opportunities in this Serene Abyss that are beneficial to Zhan Yan. No wonder he took the risk to come here."
Li Wanji said with a sour tone. With Meng Xiang, a powerhouse who was half a step into the True Self Thearch Realm, as well as Lugui and a large number of War God Temple's Emperors, it wasn't difficult for Zhan Yan to obtain any opportunities in the ruins.
On the other hand, Li Wanji, a dignified Emperor Lord, had to be careful when taking some treasures. He almost died at the end of the Serene Abyss. On the other hand, Zhan Yan was protected by a large number of powerhouses, and treasures were easily available. He was born as a proud son of heaven, and he could get whatever he wanted.
No matter how high one's cultivation level was, it couldn't be compared to a good background.
"Putting aside Meng Xiang and Lugui, a low-level Thearch Yuan is nothing in front of you. Is there a need to be envious?"
Qin Hao chuckled.
"That's true. If he dares to run in front of me, I can crush as many ants as I want," Li Wanji said proudly.
Li Wanji said proudly. It seemed that cultivation was more important.
"Zhan Yan grew up under the protection of the Battle Tower. He has never suffered and doesn't understand the hardships of cultivation. In fact, his combat power is restricted, and his strength is extremely limited. Even if he has hellfire, he can't win against Shuihan."
Qin Hao gave a simple evaluation.
"Don't … Boss, it's embarrassing for me to compare my cultivation level with him."
Ye Shuihan said with disdain.
"Hahaha …" Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter from the team.
Zhan Yan was in the second-tier of the Path Proving Realm. His realm was very low, but even if he was in the same realm as Ye Shuihan, he was no match for the disciples of the Divine Palace. In terms of background, the former was dazzling, but in terms of the foundation of the Path Proving Realm, Zhan Yan was no different from a flower in a greenhouse. A little storm could destroy his Path Heart and make him doubt his life.
"When the relic opened, the Battle Tower and Cen Gang showed up, while Zhan Yan stayed with Qingzhi Han. On this trip, we are very likely to meet the team of Daqin."
Qin Hao remembered clearly that Zhan Yan and Qingzhi Han were very close, and their relationship was not ordinary.
Zhan Yan's status was extraordinary, and he was close to Qingzhi Han, unlike Mo Xian. Mo Luo Kingdom was a vassal state of Daqin and was a subordinate state. Mo Xian would not have any improper thoughts, but Zhan Yan dared to, and he might be very confident.
Qingzhi Han's Primordial Spirit was the Eye of Nirvana, which contained the power of slaughter and destruction, which was a perfect match for the attributes of the Deep Abyss.
Therefore, the possibility of the existence of the team of Daqin was very high.
"Well …" Tian Yun frowned.
"This trip to the Divine Palace is enough to answer to Shuiyao. Why don't you go back? It's not too late to turn back now."
Qin Hao said. If they continued to go deeper, it would be difficult for Tian Yun and the others to leave even if they wanted to. They would have to be accompanied by Qin Hao to safely walk out of the Deep Abyss.
Tian Yun did not respond directly. She looked at Wuyou, and it was unknown what Wuyou was trying to convey to her. In the next second, Tian Yun said calmly, "Let's continue. If there is a dispute, we will follow the Emperor's instructions and draw a clear line with Swordmaster Li. At that time, I hope Emperor Li will not blame us.
Moreover, the powerhouses of Daqin will not bother to make a move on a group of women from the South, right? "
After saying this, Tian Yun secretly looked at Wuyou again, and a faint smile appeared on Wuyou's face.
"Well, when the time comes, Little Melon, you must also draw a clear line with me and not interfere."
Qin Hao preached to Tsiogua and the others. Tsiogua nodded slightly, looking very unnatural.
The team moved forward calmly. After everything was explained, Qin Hao had no more worries. For this trip, he firmly remembered the four words of the Daoist Ancestor's divination, "Live toward death," so they would definitely encounter some kind of "accident."
Buzz … Crack!
Suddenly, in the space, there was a strange force approaching quickly from the front. It was very fast.
Qin Hao, Li Wanji, and Shou Wuque realized it almost at the same time. It was the "Spatial Teleportation" performed by the powerhouse of the Emperor Dao.
Could it be that the Nightmare Vision had returned?
While they were puzzled, the force soon appeared in front of them. Coincidentally, the place where the other party teleported was right above Qin Hao's team. Under the evening sky, a crack spread out from the sky, and then, the Emperor's light overflowed. With a crash, the space shattered, and a messy body fell down, smashing towards Qin Hao and the others.
This figure was in a rather miserable state. His entire body was covered in blood, and his clothes were tattered. It was obvious that he had suffered heavy injuries. His aura was very unstable, and his hair was disheveled. Before Qin Hao could see his face clearly, a roar came out from his mouth.
"Kill."
Zhou Wudao was highly nervous. After escaping from the situation where his family members were slaughtered, his mind was in a mess. In his subconscious mind, there wouldn't be any family members in the Dark Abyss. In order to survive, no matter what happened, he would naturally make the first move.
Cold killing intent swept towards the team. It was extremely cold. The Emperor's light was released, and the will of the Dao condensed into countless death crows, covering the sky and the sun. They crazily bit towards the top of everyone's heads.
At this moment, there was a slight commotion in the team. Shou Wuque snorted coldly. The Emperor's Ring under his feet immediately bloomed, and the Sword Will radiated throughout the void. He pointed his finger towards the sky. Immediately, sharp golden sword shadows flew out from the Emperor's Ring, drawing a beautiful shadow as they charged towards the death crows in the sky.
Zhou Wudao's cultivation was in the sixth stage of the Dao Realm, and his Emperor's Soul was injured. Shou Wuque was a Sword Master powerhouse who had reached the peak of the Dao Realm. His Sword Will was extremely powerful. As soon as the two's attacks collided, the death crows in the sky were instantly destroyed by the sword light. The golden sword river moved forward fiercely, directly swallowing Zhou Wudao's entire body. He had no way to fight back at all. Under the Emperor's Sword, Emperor Yuan was no different from an ant.
Death was coming, and the Sword Will invaded his divine soul. At this moment, Zhou Wudao's mind became clearer.
Sword Will!
There was no Sword Emperor in Daqin's team. The other party wasn't an enemy.
Unfortunately, it was too late!
When the infinite Sword Will filled the space, Zhou Wudao couldn't escape death.
Buzz!
A body surrounded by demonic flames blocked in the middle in time. The figure was majestic, and the blood-colored demonic flames reflected in the eyes. It made people tremble in fear, but in Zhou Wudao's eyes, he felt a sense of familiarity. Tears flowed down his cheeks uncontrollably.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
The ear-piercing sword chime seemed to pierce through the heavens and everything. However, when it came into contact with the demonic flames, the solid golden Emperor Sword directly melted. It was as if even the Sword Will had merged into the demonic flames.
Qin Hao's Dao root was stronger than Shou Wuque's. The Red Lotus Tyrannical Fire directly merged with the Sword Will of All Things.
"How did you become like this?"
Qin Hao's heart trembled, and his face was full of shock as he spoke to Zhou Wudao.
The person in front of him didn't have any of the elegance he had during the Northern Border Imperial Martial Competition. He was completely different from the prince of Great Zhou in the past. To put it bluntly, he was even worse than a death row prisoner. At least, the death row prisoner's clothes were cleaner and more presentable than Zhou Wudao's before his death.
How did he become like this?
Hearing this, Zhou Wudao choked with sobs. He slowly stretched out his hands and grabbed Qin Hao's arms. The strength in his five fingers became stronger and stronger, and his expression was one of extreme pain. He shook his head continuously, as if he was struggling for a long time. Only then did he muster the courage to speak. Tears streamed down his face as he said, "Dead … My father, elder brother, royal uncle, elders, and the various geniuses of Great Zhou … were all killed … Tan Geng is dead … They're all dead …" "What?"
At the side, Shou Wuque and the rest walked over. They were shocked when they heard the grievous news.
The Great Zhou Royal Family was annihilated in the Abyss.
Furthermore, even Tan Geng … was … Qin Hao's heart thumped heavily. Then, his face darkened. He said, "Who did it?"
The Great Zhou Empire, the dominant force of the East Continent, sent out all their elites when the Burial God Ruins opened. The Great Zhou Emperor followed the team, but they were all killed. Even the Great Zhou Emperor was not spared.
One could imagine how powerful the opponent was.
Could it be Li Xiang?
Impossible. Li Xiang just left Qin Hao's side not long ago.
Was it Lu Ming?
Lu Ming's cultivation was not bad. He was a commander under the God of War. His strength was indeed higher than Emperor Zhou's, but the gap was not too big. He could not destroy the entire Great Zhou team alone. Emperor Zhou had the power to fight.
If they wanted to crush and annihilate them, they would need at least two powerful cultivators like Lu Ming. Emperor Zhou would definitely die.
However, the War God Temple had no enmity with the Great Zhou Empire.
Suddenly, a guess appeared in Qin Hao's mind. The War God Temple might not be the only force in the Abyss. He guessed that Han Qingzhi might be here. Therefore, the force that attacked should be … "Daqin cultivators."
Zhou Wudao lifted his face. His eyes were blood-red. He gritted his teeth so hard that a trace of blood appeared.
Boom!
Just as he finished speaking, the void shook violently. An extremely shocking aura followed Zhou Wudao. It tore through space and appeared in front of Qin Hao again.
Golden armor shone brightly. The burly and muscular figure was extremely intimidating. It was Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was ordered by Zhan Yan to kill Zhou Wudao.
