Chapter 1610 - 1610 1600 Three Controllers

1610: Chapter 1600: Three Controllers 1610: Chapter 1600: Three Controllers “How could he be so strong?”

The cloaked elder looked at Long Yan, silently took a deep breath of cold air, and even doubted whether he had seen it wrong.

In the span of a few breaths, Long Yan had slain three men.

Even the cloaked elder could not achieve that, which meant that Long Yan’s ability exceeded that of the cloaked elder.

“Run!”

Coming back to his senses from shock, the cloaked elder had only one thought in mind: to flee.

“Do you think you can escape from me?”

Long Yan chuckled lightly.

If the cloaked elder could escape right under his nose, that would be a joke.

The moment his words ended, Long Yan instantly disappeared from his original place and reappeared chasing the cloaked elder in the next instant.

He raised his hand and struck with a palm.

“Bang!”

A force of ten thousand jun struck the elder’s back.

The cloaked elder suffered a heavy blow, his body immediately flew out, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood while his breath collapsed.

With a casual move, Long Yan made him lose all combat power.

It was at this moment that Long Yan, once again, launched three blood-colored blade lights that sliced the air.

Like lightning, they pierced through the three men who were engaged in fierce battle with Xia Xueer, Long Chen, and Zhan Wushuang, leaving them as corpses.

“Actually, you didn’t have to make a move; I could have slain that guy myself.”

Xia Xueer approached Long Yan and spoke softly.

“Now is not the time to dawdle.”

Long Yan replied indifferently.

Xia Xueer’s opponent was a legend of the Emperor Realm.

Even if Xia Xueer could kill him, it would take a lot of time and perhaps some cost.

“Alright.”

Xia Xueer obediently nodded her head and then pointed to the cloaked elder and asked, “What should we do with this guy?”

“What else can we do, just kill him.”

Zhan Wushuang said without any expression.

“Then let me send him on his way.”

Long Chen stepped forward, slightly raising the Qilin Heavy Sword in his hand, ready to kill the cloaked elder.

“Don’t kill me, you can’t kill me.”

The cloaked elder hurriedly said, sweat beading on his forehead.

This time, he had encountered several harbingers of death.

“Give me a reason not to kill you.”

Long Yan said.

“I was specifically sent to obtain the three-headed demon flower for Controller Wang.

If I die at your hands, and you take the three-headed demon flower, Controller Wang won’t let you off once he knows.”

The cloaked elder explained, bringing out his backing for support.

“Who is Controller Wang, and why are you helping him find the three-headed demon flower?”

Xia Xueer asked.

“The thing is…”

The cloaked elder dared not conceal anything and spilled everything he knew like bamboo tubes pouring out beans.

It turned out that the Burial Dragon Abyss was not truly chaotic.

Relatively speaking, the Upper Layer Space was indeed chaotic, but in the Lower Layer Space, there were forces in control.

Those forces were particularly interested in the Nine Demon Mountains.

The reason why the Nine Demon Mountains were a Forbidden Land, and why few knew of the existence of a Heavenly Tree atop the mountain, was precisely because that mystery force had dispatched strong ones to guard it.

The three strong ones responsible for guarding the Nine Demon Mountains were the three Controllers, Wang Zhushi being one of them.

Wang Zhushi had a mount, Mingwen Cold Jiao, that was breaking through to the Ancient Emperor Realm.

He had ordered his subordinates to look everywhere for precious medicinal materials.

The three-headed demon flower had long caught the interest of Wang Zhushi, and the cloaked elder was merely responsible for retrieving it.

All three Controllers were at the peak of the Emperor Realm, and even though their task was to defend the Nine Demon Mountains, they were all in a state of overt competition and covert struggle, refusing to acknowledge each other’s superiority.

If the Mingwen Cold Jiao successfully advanced to the Eternal Emperor Realm, Controller Wang would be able to occupy an absolute advantage.

“Since the three Controllers are defending the Nine Demon Mountains, there must be important treasures there, right?”

Long Yan asked.

Although the Cloaked Elder had mentioned quite a bit about the Nine Demon Mountains, he did not touch upon the Heavenly Tree at all.

“That…

I don’t know.”

The Cloaked Elder replied, his gaze clearly flickering.

“You don’t have to tell us, we already know.

The Nine Demon Mountains have the Heavenly Tree, and there’s less than half a month left until the Heaven and Earth Exotic Fruits are ripe.”

Long Yan said.

“You…

how do you know that?”

The Cloaked Elder looked at Long Yan in shock.

The information about the Heavenly Tree was extremely secretive, and even he knew only a little.

“How I know is not something I need to tell you.

But since you dared to lie to me, your Death Day has arrived.”

Having said that, Long Yan stepped forward, his fingers turning into claws, and in a flash, he clamped his hand onto the Cloaked Elder’s head.

“Nine Nether Soul Devouring Thunder Flame, Soul Devouring Secret!”

Right now, Long Yan invoked the Soul Devouring Secret, beginning to forcefully extract the memories of the Cloaked Elder, whose face twisted in pain; his screams were enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

“What a terrifying method.”

Long Chen and Zhan Wushuang were unsurprised, whereas Xia Xueer was a bit shocked.

Long Yan’s method was somewhat too brutal.

With Long Yan’s strength, coupled with the domineering nature of the Nine Nether Soul Devouring Thunder Flame, extracting the memories of the Cloaked Elder was, of course, a breeze.

After about the duration of an incense stick burning, Long Yan suddenly exerted force with his fingers, crushing the Cloaked Elder’s head, along with eliminating his Primordial Spirit.

After extracting the memories of the Cloaked Elder, Long Yan knew everything there was to know about the Nine Demon Mountains, as long as the Cloaked Elder was aware of it.

“Big Brother, how did it go?”

Zhan Wushuang asked.

“It’s a good thing we ran into this guy, otherwise, getting into the Nine Demon Mountains would have really not been easy,”

Long Yan said, with a natural curve forming at the corner of his mouth.

“The reason the Nine Demon Mountains are a Forbidden Land is not just because they are guarded by those three Controllers, but also because they are enveloped by a Natural Array.

One wrong step, and it may lead to an irreversible disaster.”

Even with the strength of three Controllers at the peak of the Emperor Realm, it would indeed be somewhat unrealistic to thoroughly protect the Nine Demon Mountains, but with the addition of that Natural Array, it would no longer be an issue.

“Moreover, the surroundings of the Heavenly Tree are also covered by a Natural Array, which only the three Controllers can open,”

Long Yan continued.

The Natural Array was inherently perilous, and how that mysterious force had managed to thoroughly understand it remained a mystery.

“So what do we do?”

Xia Xueer asked.

“Since this guy is helping Controller Wang to find the three-headed demon flower, we’ll use their plan against them, get close to Controller Wang, and then find a way to get the Heaven and Earth Exotic Fruit,”

Long Yan already had a plan in mind, and the upward curve of his lips grew more pronounced.

As he finished speaking, Long Yan transformed in a sway, immediately taking on the appearance of the Cloaked Elder, even his Purple Battle Armor changing into a black robe.

“Heavens, how did you do that?”

Xia Xueer looked at Long Yan in astonishment.

If she hadn’t seen it happen with her own eyes, she would hardly believe that the man in front of her was actually Long Yan.

At this moment, Long Yan was the exact image of the Cloaked Elder, even the Soul breath was without any flaws, utterly indistinguishable from the original person.
