Chapter 676

Blazing Imprint

Time gradually passed. In the blink of an eye, more than two months had passed. During these two months, Zhuowen had basically been cultivating in seclusion in the pavilion.

During this period of time, Nangong Xudu was extremely well-behaved. He did not make any moves, and instead, he often sent some beautiful maids to serve Zhuowen. Naturally, these were all rejected by Zhuowen.

Zhuowen's strength did not weaken with time in the Nangong Family. Instead, his influence became even greater.

This was because an extremely terrifying pressure constantly enveloped the area dozens of meters around Zhuowen's pavilion. Back then, when Nangong Xudu wanted to approach the pavilion, he was directly suppressed by this pressure to the point that he could not move.

If it wasn't for Nangong Xudu escaping early, he would have been seriously injured by this pressure!

Since then, Zhuowen had become even more mysterious in the Nangong Family. Just the pressure that flowed out from him had actually caused Nangong Xudu to be in such a sorry state. It was truly unknown just how strong Zhuowen was.

Wu Xia had also looked for Zhuowen many times. However, when she saw that Zhuowen had been cultivating in seclusion in the pavilion, her face was filled with sadness. Naturally, she did not disturb Zhuowen.

Zhuo Wen silently sat cross-legged on the praying mat at the center of the room, and beside him stood a bronze coffin that was over 8m in size. Waves of extremely terrifying pressure surged out explosively from the Demon Suppressing Green Coffin, causing the entire room to seem slightly oppressive.

Strands of blood-red energy surged out from the Demon-suppressing Green Coffin. They surged into Zhuowen's body like rivers flowing into the sea, causing Zhuowen's aura to strengthen at a visible rate.

The Blood Demon's energy was boundless and extremely vast. Even though Zhuowen had been constantly absorbing this energy, he still discovered that this energy had not decreased at all.

"As expected of an Ancient Sacred Being. This energy is indeed vast!" Zhuowen's eyes flickered as joy appeared on his face.

Boom!

A thunderous sound came from the depths of Zhuowen's body. Then, the aura in Zhuowen's body rose to the peak like a rising sun.

"I've finally broken through to the late stage of the Six-wheel Emperor Realm!"

Zhuowen smiled faintly as he sensed the surging energy in his body. His two months of bitter cultivation hadn't been in vain. He had broken through to the late-stage of the Ultimate Emperor Realm!

Although Zhuowen's strength was not comparable to a Seven-wheel Ultimate Emperor, his terrifying Spiritual Energy was more than enough to deal with a Seven-wheel Ultimate Emperor.

Moreover, Zhuowen had the terrifying power of the Fifth Grade Origin Array, the Greater Everlasting Sword Array. If he were to use the Greater Everlasting Sword Array, then perhaps he would be able to contend with Huangfu Wuji, who was at the peak of the Ultimate Emperor realm.

Of course, Zhuowen also knew that Huangfu Wuji was far stronger than him. Although he could contend with the former, he would undoubtedly be at an absolute disadvantage.

Zhuowen slowly stood up and put away the Demon Suppressing Green Coffin. With a flick of his right hand, the door that had been closed for two months was finally opened.

"Mm?"

The moment Zhuowen walked out of the room, he frowned. This was because he discovered that the dragon-shaped mark on his right palm had begun to flicker, and a burning sensation had involuntarily arisen.

"The dragon-shaped mark is actually acting strangely. Could it be that the other participants are nearby?"

Looking at the flickering dragon-shaped mark on his palm, Zhuowen knew that only other participants with similar marks could cause the mark to act strangely.

Moreover, the dragon-shaped marks were divided according to the counties. Different counties had different auras. Only participants from the same county could cause the dragon-shaped mark to flicker like this.

"The participants from Muqin County are nearby!" Zhuowen narrowed his eyes and took a step forward, instantly disappearing from the Nangong Family.

Swoosh!

In the wilderness hundreds of miles away from Green Fire City, sonic booms suddenly sounded out. At a glance, there were over twenty figures. Moreover, the auras of these figures were extremely terrifying.

In front of these twenty figures, three figures were fleeing in an extremely sorry state. The auras of these three figures were rather weak, and there were many wounds on their bodies. It was obvious that they had suffered heavy injuries.

If Zhuowen was here, he would definitely recognize these three. They were Luo Xing, Qing Lian, and Qin Batian. At this moment, the three of them were in an extremely sorry state, gasping for breath. Looking at the twenty figures chasing them from behind, their eyes were filled with fear.

"Damn it!

How did the people from Lihuo County know the whereabouts of our Muqin County? "Qin Batian cursed in a low voice.

Luo Xing and Qing Lian's eyes were filled with confusion and anger. Their luck was pretty good. As soon as they were transported into the Peach Blossom Origin Diagram, they found many geniuses from Muqin County in the surroundings. There were more than 85 people gathered here.

Qing Lian, Luo Xing, and Qin Batian, the three great geniuses, were rather lucky to be gathered together. With these three great geniuses around, the other geniuses from Muqin County seemed to have found a backbone and basically listened to Luo Xing and the other two's commands.

In the beginning, the thirty plus people were safe and sound. After a month, they naturally understood the distribution of forces within the Peach Blossom Origin Map. They also knew that there was a region in the middle of the three big countries called the Heart of Darkness.

They were not stupid. They knew that Emperor Qing naturally had his reasons for arranging the locations within the Peach Blossom Origin Map. This Heart of Darkness was definitely the key to the Peach Blossom Origin Map.

After asking around, Luo Xing and the other two led the geniuses towards the capital. Of course, they did not have a map on them and were simply wandering around blindly, wasting their energy.

Of course, there was always a way out. When they were lost, they suddenly discovered a city. This city was one of the cities in Seaside Country, called Zhuhai City.

Zhuhai City was neither too far nor too close to Green Fire City. Luo Xing had originally intended to inquire about the route to the Heart of Darkness from Zhuhai City. However, he did not expect that the numerous geniuses of Lifire Prefecture had already occupied Zhuhai City.

The moment they entered Zhuhai City, they were undoubtedly walking right into a trap. Moreover, the number one genius of Muqin County, Young Master Lie Yun, was also in Zhuhai City. The group of geniuses from Muqin County naturally suffered heavy losses under the encirclement of Lifire County and were completely annihilated.

Luo Xing, Qing Lian, and Qin Batian were the strongest. They fought a bloody battle and finally managed to charge out of the heavy encirclement. However, the three of them were also heavily injured and their battle prowess had dropped by more than a level.

Young Master Lie Yun did not chase after them. Instead, he sent the strongest cultivators under him to lead over twenty people to chase after Luo Xing and the other two.

In Young Master Lie Yun's opinion, only the number one genius of Muqin County, Lv Yitao, was worthy of him taking action. The others were just small fries. There was no need for him to take action at all.

"Luo Xing, Qing Lian, and Qin Batian, the three of you should just surrender!

In your current state, let alone a fifth wheel, it'll be very difficult for you to even unleash the strength of a fourth wheel. "

The leader of the twenty or so figures behind him was a young man in blue robes with a cold expression. His aura was brimming with energy, and the presence he gave off had actually reached the peak of the fifth wheel.

The two people beside the young man in blue had powerful presences as well. They were fifth wheel Emperor experts as well.

If Luo Xing and the other two were at their peak, they would have no need to fear the three of them at all. Unfortunately, their current state was just too weak. They could not even use half of their cultivation. Facing the three of them was just courting death.

Moreover, there were over twenty geniuses from Lifire County behind the young man in blue. Whether it was in terms of strength or numbers, Luo Xing and the other two were no match for them.

"Senior sister Luo Xing!

What should we do?

At this rate, it won't be long before the people behind us catch up. "Qing Lian's beautiful eyes were filled with worry.

Qin Batian's expression was also anxious as his gaze converged on Luo Xing. Luo Xing was the strongest amongst the three of them, so they naturally listened to her orders.

A bitter smile appeared on Luo Xing's face. She did not know what to do either. The three of them were already at the end of their rope. She really could not think of any way to help them escape the pursuit of the Lifire County.

"If there's really no other way, we can only give up on the seals in our hands!" Luo Xing smiled bitterly.

Qing Lian and Qin Batian revealed bitter expressions when they heard this. They really did not expect that they would have to forfeit so soon after entering the Peach Blossom Origin Map.

With their strength, it was actually very possible for them to stand out amongst the eighteen hundred people and enter the top hundred. However, they had no choice but to be eliminated now. How could the three of them not be unwilling to accept this?

"The three of you had better surrender now!

Otherwise, you'll have to suffer a little later! "

The voice behind them was getting closer and closer. The blue clothed youth had already descended behind the three of them with two powerful practitioners. A terrifying attack also descended like a shadow above the three of them.

"Let's work together to block this attack!"

Luo Xing shouted as she slapped her palms upwards. The Yuan Power within her body was unleashed without restraint. Qin Batian and Qing Lian were not to be outdone as they also pushed the Yuan Power within their bodies to the limit.

An oval-shaped light barrier instantly appeared in front of the three of them. The attacks of the blue clothed youth and the other two had already descended. With a loud boom, the entire space exploded with a terrifying sound as the surrounding space crumbled inch by inch, turning into countless spatial fragments.

"The three of you are seriously injured. How much of your strength can you use?

You'd better break it. "

The blue clothed youth sneered. His attacks instantly became much fiercer and more terrifying. The oval-shaped light barrier actually crumbled inch by inch under this attack, turning into dust.

Urgh!

Luo Xing and the other two spat out a mouthful of blood. Like shooting stars, they plummeted towards the ground and smashed into it.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

The blue clothed youth and the other two landed. At the same time, the twenty over geniuses behind them also landed. Their gazes were filled with mockery as they stared at the dispirited Luo Xing and the other two.

"Heh heh!

Didn't I tell you guys earlier?

It's better to surrender. Now you've all suffered! "
