Chapter 700 - 700: Painting Scroll
It seemed that in this world, countless existences still had considerable obsessions even after death.
Following this, Qin Chen led everyone and hid inside. They couldn’t get into a conflict with that terrifying existence now.
After all, Qin Chen only had the Xuanyuan Fuxi Flag as his trump card, and it could only be used once.
If he used it, it would be almost impossible for him to survive if he encountered other existences.
This was because the relationship between the flag and Qin Chen was one of shared prosperity or destruction.
If the flag could not survive, Qin Chen would die.
The moment the Xuanyuan Fuxi Flag was broken, death would befall Qin Chen.
Thinking of this, Qin Chen smiled bitterly, at a loss for what to do now.
He led everyone to hide while wondering if there would be any terrifying dangers in the depths of the underground.
Daoist Jiuji growled, “I’ll go it”
With that, he condensed countless terrifying illusions and suppressed the underground.
If there was any danger, he would be the first to know.
Daoist Jiuji was so fast that no one could sense his speed.
Qin Chen could only follow him.
If they wanted to avoid that terrifying existence, they could only continue to go deep underground.
There seemed to be a problem underground. It was incomparably vast. Even Qin Chen and the others couldn’t find explanations for it.
There seemed to be some kind of danger underground, but unexpectedly, they had yet to encounter it.
Daoist Jiuji continued to advance underground.
Then, he stopped. They had already reached the bottom.
The ground was filled with potholes as if it had experienced a great battle.
Qin Chen looked around and extended his spiritual sense, searching for possible dangers.
The most dangerous thing in Death Underworld Mountain was the terrifying killing intent.
The dangers here were often unexpected. Before they could react, they might die.
There were countless terrifying existences in Death Underworld Mountain.
Their combined strength was enough to shake the entire Sky-east Star Field.
Yet now, such a terrifying place only existed in a small corner. Nothing else happened.
Death Underworld Mountain definitely had a huge origin and mystery.
Thinking up to this point, Qin Chen searched for the dangers in the surroundings. He would never believe that the underground was safe.
After all, there was no safe place in Death Underworld Mountain. Moreover, they were in an unfamiliar area of Death Underworld Mountain. They didn’t even know where they were now.
After that, Qin Chen led everyone forward.
“Look!”
The big scorpion discovered a figure and immediately prepared to fight. He held his saber and looked forward.
Qin Chen also turned his head to look.
It was a man. He was half-kneeling on the ground, and God knows what he was doing.
Everyone was vigilant.
If this man was also a terrifying existence, Qin Chen would use the Xuanyuan
Fuxi Flag right away.
At least he wouldn’t be instantly killed then.
As for whether he could survive, it would depend on heaven’s will.
Qin Chen slowly walked over.
He held the palm-sized flag in his hand which was emitting a faint pressure, making people realize that it was surely an extremely powerful magic item.
The man had his back to Qin Chen, so Qin Chen couldn’t see his face.
Just as Qin Chen walked to face the man, an aura of despair erupted.
Qin Chen was so shocked that he almost threw out the Xuanyuan Fuxi Flag.
Fortunately, this terrifying existence did not make a move.
Instead, when he saw Qin Chen, he opened his mouth wide, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
Qin Chen mustered his courage and approached the man.
The man’s hands were tied with iron chains, binding him tightly. It was like a form of punishment.
Qin Chen noticed that the man did not seem to have become a terrifying existence. His eyes seemed to have a flash of consciousness.
Yet, he could not sense any aura from the other party’s body.
“What is going on?
A piece of white paper suddenly appeared in front of the man. It unfolded and became extremely huge.
Then, scenes appeared on it.
Qin Chen and the others realized that the scenes were about the half-kneeling man bound by iron chains.
The scenes seemed to show the man’s past, how he had risen to the top step by
The scenes showed the few major events that had happened to the man.
Qin Chen and the others finally understood. This should be the painting that this man had left behind to prove his identity.
He seemed to be an expert from a powerful race and had finally been discovered now.
Qin Chen continued to watch the scenes unfold, and only then did he realize that this man was a quasi-emperor!
Unfortunately, in the end, the man was imprisoned here after a great battle.
He seemed to have come to Death Underworld Mountain in search of something powerful.
At that time, Death Underworld Mountain was still a celestial land.
It was a pity that there was nothing left of the celestial land after that great battle.
It seemed that countless battles between experts had broken out, which was why Death Underworld Mountain had become what it was today.
This battle was extremely terrifying.
It was unknown how many experts had died in the peerless battle.
There even seemed to be experts from other star fields.
“What are they fighting for?”
From what Qin Chen knew, only the opportunity to become emperor would make them so crazy.
Many quasi-emperor-realm experts had died in Death Underworld Mountain, so why was no one aware of such a major event?
Even the other sects didn’t know what had happened in Death Underworld
Mountain.
Qin Chen felt that he was very close to the truth.
He smiled.
No matter what, there shouldn’t be a problem.
He continued watching the scenes.
The painting scroll recorded many scenes.
The final scene froze when the man was about to touch something.
Then, the scenes went out.
Qin Chen found it hard to breathe. He was just a little bit away from discovering the truth.
Unfortunately, it was gone. There was nothing left in the painting.
The remaining thing was that one of the experts had imprisoned this man here.
As time passed, Death Underworld Mountain began to change, which was why the man died.
However, after his death, he did not become a walking corpse..
