Chapter 397, Opening In The Seal

Translator: Silavin

 

Blood Prison Sect’s Mad Blade – Xue Xiongdao, waved his large hand, and amid a flashing red light, a crimson blade appeared in his grip. His domineering voice resonated: “Everyone, join us to attack this seal!”

 

Under his words, numerous powerful experts were eager to take action.

 

The Heaven’s Destiny Forbidden Area had always been a place people feared, but the earlier disturbance was too shocking. It had attracted countless curious individuals. Now, with so many people present, that hint of concern had long been cast aside by everyone.

 

“Attack!” Yi Jian moved the swiftest. His palm gripped, and the broad sword on his back howled forth.

 

As he channelled his Yuan Energy, the broad sword began to vibrate. Sharp Yuan Energy concentrated at the sword’s tip, finally transforming into sword light made of Sword Qi over ten meters in size, violently shooting forth!

 

*Whoosh!* The sword light streaked past, seeming to literally tear the air apart, producing ear-piercing sonic booms. The trees in the forest below were also torn apart by this Yuan Energy, creating an incredibly intimidating display!

 

When Yi Jian attacked, Xue Xiongdao also gripped his blade with both hands and chopped forward, instantly releasing a crimson blade light that howled forth, no weaker than Yi Jian’s attack.

 

“Break for me!”

 

With Mu Xuan’s roar, his Silver Spear thrust forth as if to pierce the Heavens. As he thrust it out, the space in front rippled with waves, and then, a flash of silver light appeared. A spear light tearing through the sky like a Silver Dragon, howling forth.

 

“Haha, since you three are so enthusiastic, I’ll lend you my strength!”

 

Just as the three launched their attacks, a long cry suddenly exploded in midair. Accompanied by urgent wind-breaking sounds. A figure stood imposingly before Yi Jian and the others.

 

Others could help but look at the person, seeing that this person appeared even younger than Yi Jian and the others, roughly twenty-three or twenty-four years old. However, from his body, they detected an even more dangerous aura than the three. What drew the most attention was a special mark on the chest of his robe!

 

That mark was something only Core Disciples of Northern Depths Sect were qualified to possess!

 

What was the Northern Depths Sect? It was one of the Three Sects. A top Force in this region. They had hundreds of thousands of talented Disciples under their command. To be a Core Disciple, one needed truly terrifying talent and strength!

 

“Northern Depths Sect, Qiu Jizhuo!”

 

Seeing that figure, countless people’s eyes flashed with reverence. While they might fear Yi Jian and the others, for Qiu Jizhuo, a Core Disciple of Northern Depths Sect, they only had reverence. Why? Because he was a mountain, a mountain they could never surpass or overcome!

 

Seeing him appear, Yi Jian and the other two’s expressions sank.

 

Perhaps their strengths were not too different, but their status was worlds apart.

 

The Northern Depths Sect, this one Sect alone, had enough power to destroy their three Sects combined.

 

“How did he appear so quickly?”

 

Those present could not help but wonder. After all, the Northern Depths Sect was quite far from Heaven’s Destiny Forbidden Area, requiring at least several days to arrive.

 

Yi Jian and the other two’s Sects were actually a local Force to this region, which was why they arrived so quickly.

 

Originally, they could have entered before the Three Sects and One Manor’s people arrived. That way, they could have obtained some opportunities first, but now, with Qiu Jizhuo present, would they dare compete with him for any benefits?

 

Yi Jian, Xue Xiongdao, and Mu Xuan exchanged subtle glances, seemingly reaching some agreement, nodding imperceptibly.

 

At this point, they could only choose to join forces.

 

Inside Heaven’s Destiny Forbidden Area, many accidents could occur. Even Martial Kings and above faced the danger of perishing; if something happened to Qiu Jizhuo, it would be normal.

 

However, in front of this crowd, they naturally did not dare to go against Qiu Jizhuo.

 

With Qiu Jizhuo joining, those around had more confidence in breaking the seal, each giving their all as attack after attack howled forth.

 

*Boom…*

 

Amid the booming thunder, the originally transparent space before them actually rippled with visible waves, like a lake surface before them, undulating unstably.

 

“Oh?” Seeing their attacks actually taking effect, Qin Yichen was surprised again, his eyes flashing with unexpected light.

 

He could sense the seal’s aura. It was extremely powerful. It was definitely not something Martial Kings could shake!

 

Of this point, Qin Yichen was absolutely certain of it.

 

[Could it be that the earlier tremors weakened the seal’s power?] After brief contemplation, Qin Yichen’s eyes flashed with profound thoughts.

 

[Yi Jian and the others seem clearly well aware of this. This can’t be the first or second time the Heaven’s Destiny Forbidden Area had shown such anomalies.]

 

He became increasingly curious about what exactly was inside Heaven’s Destiny Forbidden Area.

 

Soon, he also attacked, though he hid his strength, only displaying power at Peak Spirit Realm.

 

He did not want to become the target of everyone present. After all, reaching the Martial King Realm at his age was world-trembling news.

 

Even in this region, it was rare.

 

*Crack!*

 

After everyone attacked together for about an hour, the rippling waves suddenly stalled, followed by a sound like eggshells breaking. That invisible seal, like glass, cracked with web-like fissures.

 

*Bang!*

 

Finally, the seal broke, and an ancient, primordial aura swept out from Heaven’s Destiny Forbidden Area, causing everyone’s Soul to tense up.

 

“Hmm?” Sensing this aura, Qin Yichen frowned.

 

Perhaps due to the space inside being isolated from the outside world, it appeared deathly still, with somewhat dark and terrifying scenery, like the nether realm.

 

“Charge! Hurry and grab what you can!”

 

As the seal broke, figure after figure rapidly entered through that small opening.

 

“Ah…”

 

“Help!”

 

“No, no…”

 

In an instant, streams of tragic screams came from inside, a bloody arm crawling out of the opening, rotting into ash, leaving only stark white bones.

 

“Hmph, fools!” Yi Jian coldly snorted, his eyes full of indifference, clearly aware such situations would occur, but not bothering to warn anyone.

 

Perhaps to him, everyone else entering was his competitor.

 

He exchanged glances with Xue Xiongdao and Mu Xuan. The three wrapped their bodies in Yuan Energy, and swiftly entered.

 

“Heh!” Seeing the three join forces, Qiu Jizhuo’s lips revealed a disdainful cold sneer. He too covered himself in Yuan Energy and entered.

 

Seeing what these four were doing, many people emulated and wrapped themselves in Yuan Energy, rushing towards the opening one after another.

 

As for Qin Yichen, he was not in any hurry to enter. His gaze instead fell on the opening in the seal.
