Chapter 728 - 728: Confusing
Qin Chen became increasingly cautious.
At this point, he had no choice but to be careful. The others were jumpy as well. Whenever they encountered something that they had not noticed before, they would gasp.
“There might be great danger ahead.”
Daoist Jiuii was extremely solemn. He knew that the further they advanced,
the closer they were to the being that killed the terrifying quasi-emperor-realm existences. The more so, the more likely they were gambling with their lives.
Even without Daoist Jiuji’s words, Qin Chen was feeling terrified because he had discovered some fragments on the ground.
The fragments were the same material as the crystal they had seen earlier, where the absolute beauty had been sealed.
“We seem to have seen this before.”
Qin Chen picked a fragment from the ground and said coldly.
The woman in the crystal was probably sealed in such crystal fragments.
As such, Qin Chen was increasingly fearful. If that were the case, then there should be another existence like that woman sealed in crystal.
And now, the terrifying existence in the crystal seemed to have escaped and killed two terrifying existences.
The more Qin Chen deduced, the more his scalp went numb.
Just how powerful was that existence? It was probably on par with the godfiend phantom that he had previously released, or even stronger.
One had to know that creatures that came out of the crystal were almost all existences that survived the primordial era great battle in Death Underworld Mountain.
Since they didn’t die, everyone could guess how terrifying their strength would be without Qin Chen having to say anything.
If this continued, they might soon bump into an existence that had survived the great battle back then.
Qin Chen let out a heavy breath. He felt a great danger approaching them.
Right now, there were two paths before them. One was to continue advancing, and the other was to stop and slowly kill time, waiting for death to arrive.
There was no need for Qin Chen to tell them how terrifying the existence ahead was. If they really met such a terrifying existence, they would be sent on their way to hell.
Qin Chen then looked at the crowd. He wondered what their thoughts were.
This time around, even he felt afraid. If they went any further, they might really die.
Still, Qin Chen continued to lead the group forward. They arrived at a place not far away and made a discovery.
The ground was littered with a large number of fragments, all of which were from those crystals.
With this, it was very likely that a being who had survived the battle back then had woken up not long ago and was not far ahead.
Since the other party could survive, he was definitely no simple existence. It was very likely that he was one of the strongest existences in that battle.
Qin Chen and the others could feel the danger ahead.
At this point, they could only choose to pray. Perhaps that terrifying existence’s goal was to leave Death Underworld Mountain as well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to keep moving forward.
If that were the case, perhaps they could easily leave Death Underworld Mountain by following that terrifying existence.
Qin Chen and the others frowned, not knowing what to do.
Daoist Jiuji spoke, “Whether it’s a fortune or a misfortune, we can’t hide from it. If we stay here, the only outcome waiting for us is death. There won’t be any turning point, so we might as well continue moving forward. Even if we encounter an even more terrifying existence. We won’t lose out either.”
Hearing Daoist Jiuji’s words, everyone nodded in agreement.
Although the truth was cruel, they could only accept it.
Since that was the case, they should give it a try. After all, they had been advancing without any fear. How could they retreat just because they discovered some probable danger?
Qin Chen’s gaze swept across the crowd. Everyone responded with firm gazes as if they had made the same choice as Daoist Jiuji.
With that, Qin Chen once again led the group forward. This time, everyone remained silent along the way and became even more careful. They checked the surroundings for any danger.
Then, Qin Chen and the others saw that there seemed to be blood stains on the ground ahead. The blood had yet to dry up, seemingly having been left behind not long ago, which meant that a huge battle had just erupted here.
As they walked forward, they saw the corpse of another terrifying quasi-emperor-realm existence.
“This is too terrifying.”
The big scorpion was extremely shocked.
Currently, they had already seen three quasi-emperor corpses. Would there be a fourth or fifth one if they continued forward?
No one could say for sure.
Things were becoming complicated.
They did not know how powerful that terrifying existence was. After all, the other party was a terrifying expert who had survived that battle back then.
Following this, Qin Chen and the others abruptly raised their heads and looked into the distance at the same time because they felt a terrifying fluctuation. It was as if a great battle had erupted ahead. They immediately stopped and did not dare to take another step forward.
With such a terrifying fluctuation, it was only likely that the surviving terrifying expert had started a battle with a terrifying walking corpse here.
God knows who would be the victor of the battle.
Either way, if they continued to advance now, they would be fools. After all, even if they rushed over, what could they do?
They would only be discovered by the other party. At that time, if the surviving terrifying existence targeted them, the other party could crush them all to death with just a finger!
The risk was too great, one that Qin Chen was unwilling to take. As such, they immediately retreated several thousand miles, waiting for the ripples to end.
Finally, after God knows how long, the fluctuations ahead seemed to have decreased by a lot. In the end, they disappeared altogether.
It was only at this moment that Qin Chen had the courage to continue moving forward.
Even if there was a terrifying existence ahead, so what?
The battle was probably over.
If the surviving terrifying existence had won, there shouldn’t be any problems ahead. Rather, it would be an absolutely safe place.
Now that the fluctuations were gone, it meant that there should not be any terrifying danger ahead.
Therefore, Qin Chen decided to continue forward. At the very least, he wanted to see who had won.
No matter who won, it would be a great benefit to them..
