Chapter 1863 - 1863 1853 The Fallen Strongman

1863: Chapter 1853: The Fallen Strongman 1863: Chapter 1853: The Fallen Strongman “In the eyes of the Chu Family, the Misty Rain Building is nothing.

Having lost face, the Chu Family will certainly hold the Misty Rain Building accountable,” Mu Chongyang spoke gravely, his expression also quite solemn.

If because of this matter, the Chu Family completely cuts off the future prospects of the Misty Rain Building, the loss would be enormous.

Mu Chongyang would rather pay some cost to maintain the relationship with the Chu Family.

“I hope that we can catch Long Yan before the people from the Chu Family arrive.”

An elderly man muttered softly.

“The top priority is to find Long Yan.

Alive, we must see the person; dead, we must see the body!”

Mu Chongyang said coldly.

Only by capturing Long Yan before the people from the Chu Family arrive, could they give the Chu Family an explanation and perhaps quell their anger slightly.

………

Netherworld Poison Forest, deep in the marsh.

“What a terrifying poison gas, I wonder what kind of cursed place this is.”

Long Yan was on alert, though the poison gas posed no threat to him, this place was not simple, and perhaps concealed some dangers.

Long Chen and Zhan Wushuang had both set up a Protective Gang Shield around themselves to fend off the poison gas, struggling mightily.

Even with their power, they could not withstand the corrosion of the poison gas.

“There should be no dangers here, nor will there be people coming.

We shall recover from our injuries here for now, then think of a plan.”

Long Yan released his Divine Sense, surveyed his surroundings, and detected no dangers.

The poison gas here is very intense.

Even a Void God Tenth Stage would not dare to set foot here lightly.

They were hiding here, so it was unlikely anyone would find them.

Right then, Long Yan, Long Chen, and Zhan Wushuang entered the Azure Dragon Ring to cultivate.

Chaos Sky Peng guarded the ring and found a hidden spot to conceal it.

One day later, the three brothers, Long Yan, emerged from the Azure Dragon Ring, their injuries completely healed.

“If we go out now, we are likely to be discovered.

Apart from being pursued by the Misty Rain Building, that guy will definitely not let us off,” Zhan Wushuang said, referring to the “that guy” as the blood-robed young man.

“We can’t risk going out now,”

Long Chen said.

They had just barely escaped with their lives; venturing out again might not bring the same luck.

“This Poison Marsh isn’t simple.

We’d better not leave for now.

Instead, let’s venture deeper and see, maybe we can discover something,”

Long Yan said.

He had a subtle feeling that this Netherworld Poison Forest was not ordinary, not just any poisonous forest.

“Third Brother, the poison gas can’t threaten you, but if Wushuang and I were to go deeper, I’m afraid we can’t manage it,”

Long Chen said.

He and Zhan Wushuang standing here were almost at their limit.

The surrounding poison gas made their scalps tingle.

“How about this, I will instill a Nine Suns Rule into each of your bodies to help you expel the poison gas,”

Long Yan said.

Immediately, he condensed two Nine Suns Rules, then instilled one into each, Long Chen and Zhan Wushuang.

These two Nine Suns Rules were non-aggressive and would not conflict with Long Chen and Zhan Wushuang’s power.

With these rules, unless the poison gas was exceedingly strong, it couldn’t harm Long Chen and Zhan Wushuang.

“The Nine Suns Rules are truly powerful!”

Feeling the Nine Suns Rule within him, Long Chen also expressed his admiration.

His Qilin Rule was also a very powerful force, but it was incomparable to the Nine Suns Rule.

Immediately, the three brothers headed towards the depths of the Netherworld Poison Forest, deliberately slowing down and proceeding cautiously.

An hour later, the trio crossed a ridge and as they advanced, the poison gas grew stronger, forcing Long Yan and the others to be even more cautious.

“Be careful!”

Suddenly, Long Yan sensed something.

He immediately shielded Long Chen and Zhan Wushuang behind him, grabbed with his five fingers, and the Dragon Tooth appeared in his hand.

He slashed forward, and a Slaughter Blade Aura ravaged forth.

“Boom!”

The Slaughter Blade Aura fell, slicing a hundred-meter-long trench into the ground ahead, extending straight forward.

“Big Brother, what did you discover?”

Zhan Wushuang asked.

He hadn’t sensed anything, and neither had Long Chen.

“There’s danger here, we can’t be careless,”

Long Yan said.

Just now, he had sensed a murderous intent approaching from ahead, which prompted him to strike.

Unexpectedly, his strike hit nothing.

The moment he made his move, that murderous intent vanished without a trace.

“What in the world is it, to be so elusive?”

Long Chen frowned slightly, fully trusting Long Yan’s words.

“If it’s fortune, it’s not a disaster, and if it’s a disaster, it can’t be avoided.

Let’s keep moving forward.

If there really is something, it will definitely appear again,”

Zhan Wushuang said.

Long Yan and Long Chen nodded slightly and then continued walking forward, slowing their pace even more.

As they moved forward cautiously, the three of them heightened their alertness, but for an hour, they encountered no danger.

“Strange, I clearly sensed a murderous intent.

Why hasn’t it appeared?”

Long Yan’s brow furrowed lightly; he was absolutely certain about the murderous intent he had sensed before.

“Third Brother, look ahead, seems like there’s some ruins,”

Long Chen pointed ahead and spoke to Long Yan.

“Let’s go check it out!”

Very quickly, the three of them reached the edge of the ruins.

Before them lay complete devastation; broken walls and remnants of structures indicated that this place had once been a palace.

It seemed as though it had been transformed into ruins after a battle, now shrouded in terrifying poison gas.

“Be careful!”

Just then, Long Yan sensed another murderous intent coming his way and lifted his Dragon Fang Blade, slashing diagonally.

“Boom!”

The moment the Slaughter Blade Aura was unleashed, a force collided with it, shattering the Blade Aura instantly.

The next moment, a figure stepped out from within the ruins, clearly appearing before the three of them.

From his appearance, he was a middle-aged man, around his thirties, with white hair, a goatee on his chin, and a medium build.

He wore tattered battle armor; his left arm cleanly severed at the root, while his right hand held a black long sword, emanating a chilling aura.

The middle-aged man had no signs of life within him, only sword intent swirling in his eyes.

“This person has already fallen, leaving only a will behind,”

Long Yan said.

Before them stood merely a corpse, long fallen, leaving only a will to support this body.

It looked like he had fallen after an earth-shattering fight, which also turned this place into ruins.

“This person must surely have been a sword cultivator, with such a strong Sword Intent,”

Long Chen remarked.

He felt an immense Sword Intent from the middle-aged man, a realm he could not reach at the moment.

This middle-aged man had definitely been a powerful sword cultivator before his demise.

“He must have been guarding something, there must be some secrets here,”

Zhan Wushuang said.

Already fallen, yet forcibly leaving behind a will to support his remaining body, he must surely have been guarding something.

As expected, there surely were some secrets here.
