Asura Mad Emperor

Seeing this scene, Qinchuan's expression suddenly turned icy.

The twelve Evil-Suppressing Ancient Swords, each inscribed with an Evil-Suppressing Talisman, were the foundation for suppressing Undying Mountain!

Nobody knew that inside the Life Prohibition Zone of the Myriad Spirit Garden, the greatest of dangers was sealed and suppressed—the Primordial Ancestral Serpent!

The Primordial Ancestral Serpent was incredibly brutal, devouring all flesh and blood, all traces of life!

Its vitality was so strong that it was exceedingly rare in all the world.

Thus, the Primordial Ancestral Serpent was extremely difficult to kill.

Although with Qinchuan's strength at the time, killing a Primordial Ancestral Serpent was not difficult, he was interested in studying the limits of its life force. Therefore, after gravely wounding it back then, he merely suppressed it here.

The twelve Evil-Suppressing Ancient Swords, together with the Evil-Suppressing Divine Talismans, formed an unparalleled demon-sealing Great Formation that suppressed the Primordial Ancestral Serpent, leaving it immobilized, and a Time Formation that eroded its vitality.

Yet, unexpectedly, the life force of this ancestor serpent was more terrifying than he had imagined.

Ten thousand years had passed, and the Primordial Ancestral Serpent, already seriously injured in the beginning, had survived until now under the suppression of the unparalleled demon-sealing Great Formation and the erosion of the Time Formation, still not dead.

And it was still trying to break free, causing the demon-sealing formation to dim slightly.

Now, if these people in front of him were to pull out the Evil-Suppressing Ancient Swords and Talismans, the Primordial Ancestral Serpent might indeed manage to escape its bonds.

Glancing at those attempting to pull out the swords, Qinchuan's gaze turned exceedingly cold, "Stop!"

The various Sect disciples struggling to pull out the swords, upon hearing Qinchuan's cold reprimand, finally noticed his arrival.

When they saw Qinchuan, a sneer couldn't help but surface on some of their faces, "Hmph, I was wondering who it was. Turns out it's you group of Congyun Sect trash! You've been in the Myriad Spirit Garden for so long and still haven't been killed by someone?"

In the previous openings of the Myriad Spirit Garden, the disciples of the Congyun Sect who entered were almost all hunted and killed to the last by disciples from other Sects.

All the great Sects coveted the resources of the Congyun Sect, so once they encountered Congyun Sect disciples in the Myriad Spirit Garden, nearly all would tacitly agree to strike and kill them.

Before entering the Myriad Spirit Garden, their leading elders had also secretly instructed them.

"I said, stop!"

Qinchuan's face was icy, resembling an Asura from the human realm, stepping forward deliberately.

His indifferent gaze fixed on the people around, a chilling intent to kill burst forth from him.

This time, it wasn't an unintentional slip of killing intent, but real anger.

That terrifying killing intent swept toward the people from afar.

However, at that moment, divine light cascaded like a waterfall within Undying Mountain, blocking Qinchuan's murderous intent, protecting the disciples of Five Elements Sect and the other great Sects from extracting the swords. Clearly, something within Undying Mountain was sheltering these people, hoping they would pull out the Evil-Suppressing Divine Sword to facilitate its release.

The disciples from the various Sects in front, oblivious to this, heard Qinchuan's words, and upon seeing him approaching, let out a sneer, "Kid, who do you think you are, daring to shout at us like this? Did you think you had a Grand Elder from Congyun Sect backing you up?"

"Or is it that you want to compete with us for the fortune of this Divine Sword?"

At this point, the disciples of the various Sects in attendance let out a smirk, "With just a few of you Congyun Sect weaklings trying to compete with us for the fortune of the Divine Sword, you are truly overestimating yourselves! Take a few men, and kill them!"

Yet Qinchuan, ignoring them, narrowed his eyes and looked towards the depths of Undying Mountain, his tone icy, "Are you so eager to seek death?"

There was no response from within Undying Mountain.

Several disciples from the great Sects lunged toward Qinchuan, "Playing tricks!"

"Kid, you Congyun Sect disciples should be running away when you see us, yet you dare to come close to fight for a chance at fortune, you're asking for death!"

One of them, with superior movement technique, rushed ahead to face Qinchuan, his Crescent Curved Blade slicing toward Qinchuan.

Qinchuan glanced back, swiped his hand, and instantaneously diverted it onto the opponent's wrist, then grasped the opponent's throat in one move, hoisting him mid-air, his indifferent eyes devoid of any emotion.

"You..."

The Five Elements Sect disciple, whose throat was easily clutched and was suspended in midair by Qinchuan, suddenly had his pupils constrict, about to say something, when Qinchuan 'snap', snapped his neck in one swift motion, killing him on the spot.

"Brother Mu!"

The disciples rushing up from behind all cried out in shock, their eyes filled with horror as they looked at Qinchuan.

The Five Elements Sect disciple that Qinchuan had effortlessly snapped to death was no ordinary disciple. He was one of the top ten True Disciples of the Five Elements Sect, with strength second only to the Saint Heir of the Five Elements Sect, Gu Li.

His strength was incredibly formidable, and there were few among the younger generation who could vie with him.

Yet at this moment, such a prominent expert among the younger generation was so casually snuffed out by Qinchuan!

How could this not shock people?

The several disciples who had charged up behind him suddenly came to a halt, not daring to rashly advance any further, only drawing their weapons, warily watching Qinchuan, and angrily denounced, "You actually killed Brother Mu, you..."

Qinchuan swept them a cold glance, looking at the disciples who had drawn their swords, and said in a chilled tone, "Divine weapons tempt the heart, but one must have life to enjoy them!"

"These Evil-Suppressing Divine Swords and Evil-Suppressing Talismans are to suppress the dreadful entities within the Undying Mountain. If you do not cease your actions now, the heavens will turn and the earth will overturn, and you shall all perish!"

Qinchuan spoke in an eerie tone.

He did not stop them, only verbally warned them.

"Alarmist talk!"

"This place is holy and peaceful. Here, we all feel extremely composed and tranquil. Where is there a dreadful entity suppressed here? And even if there once was a dreadful being suppressed, the Myriad Spirit Garden has existed for a hundred thousand years. The entity suppressed here should have long since turned to dust! These Divine Swords and Talismans are clearly no ordinary objects. Since we have encountered them, it must be our fortune!"

The Saint Heir of the Five Elements Sect, Gu Li, with a flickering gaze, snorted coldly.

In truth, he too perceived the twelve Evil-Suppressing Divine Swords and the piercing Evil-Suppressing Divine Talismans as rather extraordinary.

But treasures tempt the heart.

These Evil-Suppressing Divine Swords were certainly exceptional treasures. With such treasures before them, no one could remain unmoved.

Even if it involved some risk, they must be obtained.

Furthermore, according to his thinking, even if this place once suppressed a supreme malevolent entity, after so many years, it ought to have died.

With that thought in mind, he did not stop, but called out to the other sect disciples present, "Fellow Daoists, these Divine Swords seem to be interconnected and difficult to pull out individually. Let us try together with our combined strength!"

Qinchuan no longer interfered, merely watching coldly.

"Brother Qin, was what you said true? Is something extremely malevolent really suppressed here, and these swords are meant to suppress it?"

Zhou Xi and the others all slightly changed their expressions as they spoke.

Qinchuan neither confirmed nor denied.

The three immediately said in shock, "Shouldn't we stop them?"

"Ants courting death are hardly worth pitying," Qinchuan said, his expression indifferent.

In his eyes, the sect disciples before him were as good as dead.
