Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1146 – Powerful Fighters

Feeling shock and anger, King Mystery also sensed the arrival of a formidable force being applied to him. The medium for it was certainly the existence of his purgatory.

To be precise, it was some little thing he had suppressed within his purgatory!

King Mystery’s first reaction was disbelief. After all, Purgatory was the most formidable supernatural art inherited by the Nether Royal Bloodline.

Yet because of some little thing being suppressed inside it, it had become the medium to counteract him.

If such a great flaw and loophole really existed, the Nether Royal Bloodline would have been destroyed long ago. How could they have remained such a dominant force until now?

But no matter how much he didn’t dare to believe it, it had happened. The strength that descended on his body was like a terrifying invisible hand, one that wanted to drag him into the vortex.

“Humph!” King Mystery lifted a finger and pointed out.

Everything within his purgatory moved according to his mind. Since this little bug was the cause of this counterforce, then he would naturally escape after erasing the little bug.

This idea was right, but soon King Mystery’s complexion paled. His eyes widened with panic. Because he found that even though he pointed his finger, his purgatory remained calm and unmoving, without a single wave passing through it.

At this moment, his connection to the purgatory was thoroughly isolated by some formidable strength.

Of course, to say that it was thoroughly isolated was wrong. His purgatory was still his purgatory, and both sides existed in one inalienable body.

But he had actually lost control of it!action

Bang –

The wild strength around him rose. King Mystery humphed as his body was forced forward beyond his control.

Each step caused space to disintegrate. Countless giant cracks wildly spread in all directions.

“Break for me!”

King Mystery roared into the skies. The strength of the True King boundary erupted without reservation. The originally shattered space completely collapsed, transforming into endless darkness.

But this wasn’t able to resolve the danger he faced. The power firmly ‘grasped’ him and fiercely pulled once again.

This time, it was even more terrifying than before. Even the formidable King Mystery wasn’t able to resist anymore.

Roaring in rage, he flew through the air. He fell into the channel inside the vortex and vanished just like Elder Ao Fa.

The shattered space quickly restored itself to how it was at the beginning. Endless eyes widened and it was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of a needle drop.

Just what had happened…who had dealt with Ao Fa and then King Mystery…just what changes were occurring within the ancestral land…?

Countless chaotic and noisy thoughts collided in everyone’s mind. The mess was like a pot of rotten porridge as it all jumbled around!

Although Elder Ao Fa once thought that he might experience some grave danger when he handed over the summoning contract to Qin Yu, he never imagined that today’s situation would occur.

With Elder Ao Fa’s strength, he was considered an extremely powerful existence even amongst the Abyssal True Kings. There weren’t many things that could threaten him, much less prove a fatal danger.

But now, this situation happened…

When Elder Ao Fa first saw Old Turtle, he froze in place. He was able to directly confirm Old Turtle’s status without any words.

A shadow of the abyss which had rebelled and fled – this reminder came from the source of the abyss which had already fused into him.

Even if it was only a shadow, when the main body was the endless abyss itself, a mere shadow still possessed an unfathomably terrifying might.

This bastard Qin Yu, he actually summoned him into the Nightmare Ancestral Land! As Ao Fa felt extreme anger, he also felt his stomach ache.

Because no matter how he looked at the situation, he felt as if he took the initiative to send himself to this door. After all, if the distance between both parties wasn’t that close, then at the moment when the contract was activated and he felt the aura of threat, he could have paid a certain price and refused to come!

The only thing that comforted Elder Ao Fa was that he wasn’t the only unlucky one. He looked up at King Mystery not too far away, and when he saw this glowering face, he suddenly felt that he wasn’t too aggrieved.

After all, he had voluntarily given the summoning contract to Qin Yu and had voluntarily come here. He could also say that he was eating the fruits of his own choices.

But King Mystery? This fellow didn’t have any connection to Qin Yu. He had clearly been tricked and forcibly dragged into this chaotic mess.

As expected, Qin Yu was worthy of being someone who Miss Feature regarded so highly. He could not be underestimated.

A solemn Abyssal True King had been tricked just like that. He hadn’t even felt anything off during the entire time.

This method was truly terrifying…or could it be said that the reason Qin Yu was able to trick King Mystery was all because of Feature’s arrangements?

“Elder Ao Fa, King Mystery, I know that you must both be extremely angry right now and hate me for dragging you into the Nightmare Ancestral Land. But, dangers and opportunity come hand in hand…at this time, you two should have determined the identity of the existence in front of you.”

Qin Yu’s tone deepened, becoming earnest, “Destroy him and you will both obtain a reward from the abyss’ will! And this reward might help you achieve your respective goals.

“For instance, Elder Ao Fa might hope to further himself and evolve into the highest level of Abyssal Demon Dragon. And perhaps King Mystery hopes to rely on this merit to offset the guilt and crimes of the Nether Royal Bloodline and escape his shackles!”

Elder Ao Fa and King Mystery shook. They looked at Qin Yu with endless shock. Everything he mentioned were top secrets and no one should have known about them, yet he casually spoke them out loud.

Just how did he know?

As the two True Kings were left shaken, Qin Yu’s lips curved up, “Or perhaps the abyss’ will doesn’t care about the existence of this shadow, and you two won’t receive any reward…but this result might be even more attractive to you. After all, even if it is just a shadow, it contains an extremely weak sliver of the strength of the abyss’ will. If you swallow this power, you will obtain even more!”

Elder Ao Fa and King Mystery sucked in a deep breath, their hearts racing. The possibility that Qin Yu spoke of might not be impossible.

If they could really obtain the strength of the abyss’ will contained in the Shadow of Betrayal…just thinking about this left them shivering with excitement over the possibilities.

It wasn’t that these two True Kings weren’t able to hide their emotions. Rather, this temptation was far, far too great, much greater than the best possible situation they imagined.

But all this was based on the premise that they destroyed the Shadow of Betrayal in front of them.

Old Turtle opened his mouth and slowly spoke, his heavy words shaking the air, “Abyssal True Kings may be strong, but I am the abyss! Even if I only have one hundredth of the power of the main body, it is not difficult to kill you both.

“Now, I will give you both a promise. If you kill Qin Yu, I will let you both leave and won’t investigate your crimes here.”

Old Turtle didn’t deny his essence. Qin Yu clearly knew his details and Ao Fa and King Mystery were both True Kings approved by the abyss’ will. They could recognize him with just a glance.

Qin Yu laughed, “1% strength? You overestimate yourself. If you really had such power, you could kill a True King with just a thought. Why would you waste your time talking?”

His eyes sharpened as he stared at Old Turtle. “Moreover, you have forgotten one important truth. Abyssal True Kings need to be recognized by the will of the abyss in order to truly reach the King boundary. That is to say, even if Ao Fa and King Mystery compromise with you today and leave the ancestral land, once they are discovered by the abyss’ will then their boundaries will no longer be guaranteed!”

In his Abyssal Titan form, the darkness in Qin Yu’s eyes darkened. “True Kings, do not delay any further. I will assist you in destroying the Shadow of Betrayal. This will be in all our common interests!”

Elder Ao Fa looked at Qin Yu, his eyes faint and without emotion. Just what nonsense was he spouting about common interests? He was clearly trying to fool him. If it weren’t for the restraints of the contract, he would have swallowed Qin Yu already and chewed him up until not even bones were left!

But logical reasoning told him Qin Yu wasn’t wrong. Eliminating the Shadow of Betrayal was the best choice…of course, this was only under the assumption that Qin Yu hadn’t prepared any more tricks.

He always felt that this boy wasn’t simple in his actions. If he wasn’t careful, he would fall into his trap.

King Mystery coldly said, “That mouse in my purgatory, is that a chess piece you arranged?”

Qin Yu lightly said, “This junior doesn’t have the ability of foresight. It was merely a coincidence. King Mystery, you just happened to be involved because you were present.”

This time, Qin Yu had no reason to lie again. King Mystery’s eyes darkened and his complexion turned even uglier.

Coincidence…it was actually a coincidence…

He really wished he could slap himself a few times. This didn’t make sense at all! Why had he been so curious? Just because of one pill that had the ability to activate his bloodline, he had gotten himself into such great trouble!

Touching others’ things without permission…what a sin!

Within the purgatory projection, Shadowless Demon swayed in excitement. He fell to his knees and bowed to the ground.

Master, it really is my master!

He had watched everything happening outside with his own eyes. So my master is actually so amazing and bombastic! He actually dared to plot against an Abyssal True King!

And with one plan he had caught two!

Although he had guessed this before, when he finally confirmed the truth in front of him, the psychological impact still left his emotions surging into his mind.

Certainly, an even more important thing was that Shadowless Demon discovered Qin Yu’s fierceness didn’t stop here. His master was driving the two great True Kings, his final goal being to eliminate the Shadow of Betrayal.

This was a shadow of the abyss…okay, even if it was just a shadow, its power and might could easily crush him with just a finger.

Master’s great strength had thoroughly surpassed the limits of his imagination!

King Mystery’s eyes flashed with a cold light. This damned little insect, did he really think that he, a solemn Abyssal True King, couldn’t do anything to him?

“Qin Yu, I can agree to your proposition, but that is only if you let me kill this low and pathetic ant myself!”

After a slight pause, his tone became increasingly cold. ”Because the dignity of a True King cannot be provoked!”
