Chapter 1144 – Old Turtle and the Abyss

 

White flames ignited around Xi Mo.

Within these flames, his body turned transparent.

He was like a shadow that fused into the world, soon vanishing from sight.

He hadn’t fought Qin Yu yet, but it wasn’t hard to sense Blue Sea’s fear and despair through his actions.

Joining forces with him to kill Qin Yu was the best choice, but since he couldn’t do that he could only escape.

If he left here, he might have a chance to obtain the ancestral land’s approval and become the Nightmare King.

At that time, what did it matter if Qin Yu was strong If a True King attacked him, he would still die!

The 10,000 foot Abyssal Titan roared, “None of you…can escape!”

He lifted a hand and grasped forward.

Space violently shook and Xi Mo’s transparent figure was forced out from hiding.

Xi Mo spat out a mouthful of blood.

His eyes widened with endless alarm and horror.

He finally understood what Blue Sea had felt.

This strength…was simply beyond imagination!

At the same time, the rapidly escaping Blue Sea roared out loud.

He punched out a fist at the void in front of him.

Heaven-shaking bangs erupted, as if he was striking an invisible mountain.

Space shook and ripples spread out, but he simply couldn’t break through the barrier before him.

“Ahh! Break! Break for me!”

The Abyssal Titan watched this was ice-cold eyes.

He punched out without hesitation.

Like a hurricane crossing a field, everything that it passed through was destroyed.

This included not just the sky and earth, but also the transparent Xi Mo and the crazily screaming Blue Sea.

Perhaps they were both among the most outstanding bloodline descendants of the Nightmare Clan and had obtained the approval of the Nether Royal Bloodline and Demon Dragon Clan.

Their strength and luck were at the pinnacle and they both had the chance of becoming the Nightmare King and leaping to the peak of the abyss.

Perhaps they still had formidable cards that could reverse the tides in the struggle for the throne.

But what a pity, they encountered Qin Yu…or to be more exact, it was the dazzling great sun that was hidden behind Qin Yu’s darkness!

In front of it, everything became meaningless.

Because from the moment the great sun rose in the depths of Qin Yu’s eyes, they became pawns destined to be destroyed.

Perhaps no one imagined that the contention for the Nightmare Throne had ended at this time.

Blue Sea and Xi Mo had both died.

If Qin Yu wanted, he would become the only candidate of the ancestral land.

He could smoothly ascend the throne!

But what a pity, whether or not he had the little blue lamp’s plan, it would have been impossible for him to accept this so-called Nightmare Throne.

Taking a deep breath, the Titan True Body released a loud rumbling sound like roaring thunder.

Qin Yu looked up at his surroundings.

This was an independent space that was almost identical to the outside world.

It wasn't too large and he could see the dusky gray boundaries.

But it was impossible for it to be ordinary.

For instance, the traces of destruction left behind from killing Blue Sea and Xi Mo had all disappeared, and everything was restored to its initial appearance.

It was exactly the same as before, as if this space had some kind of formidable restraining strength on it, defining everything to its initial state and not allowing any change to occur.

A place where no accidents could happen!

Qin Yu’s giant titan eyes flashed with happiness.

The power of the Abyssal Gaze concealing the great sun’s aura was the key to this entire plan.

If it failed, there was no possibility of further progress.

Now, it seemed the result was quite good…then, he could continue!

The Abyssal Titan looked up, staring at the center of the ancestral land.

There, he could see an incomparably vast palace complex.

‘Old Turtle’ was there!

Rumble rumble –

The Abyssal Titan moved forward.

The earth quaked as he moved forward at an astonishing speed.

Soon, the palaces appeared in front of him.

As for how to describe its scale…in Qin Yu’s current state and standing just outside the palace, he was just about the right size.

As if he was an ordinary-sized human standing outside an ordinary group of palaces.

There was someone outside the palace.

To be exact, there were two.

They were guards that wore golden armor.

When Qin Yu stopped, they both opened their eyes.

Golden light surged there, shining with dignity that caused one to feel awe and respect.

“How bold! Who dares to rush into the Sage’s private residence!”

 As the guards shouted, winds and clouds surged.

Endless thunder burst into existence as a raging storm swept through the skies.

It was bright and dazzling, as if it contained the might of the world.

But this scene only appeared for a brief time.

The thunder in the skies vanished and everything soon returned to normal.

The two golden armored guards simultaneously bowed.

They fell to their knees as if accepting an imperial edict.

Then after several breaths of time they stood up, their golden eyes falling on Qin Yu.

“The Sage has invited you.

You may enter.”

Qin Yu frowned before he composed himself.

Without delay, he stepped inside.

The incomparably magnificent palace had innumerable images etched into its inner walls.

There were chaotic scenes from before the abyss was formed, there were scenes of mighty beings that wreaked havoc when the abyss was just born, and there were pictures of thunder so terrifying that they formed pillars capable of destroying all.

In one of the pictures, Qin Yu saw a black divine mountain.

Countless demonic runes were engraved on its surface.

A mysterious existence sat at the summit.

Abyssal life forms prostrated themselves beneath it, paying their respects.

Among them, Qin Yu could see Abyssal Demon Dragons, Abyssal Titans, as well as other formidable life forms that had already gone extinct.

He briefly paused and focused his eyes on the mysterious existence on the summit of the mountain.

The space around it was warped so that one couldn’t see its true appearance.

But when Qin Yu looked at it, he faintly felt as if he was being gazed at…as if that mysterious existence was observing him.

His heart filled with awe and a chill rose up from his back, extending all the way up.

“That is in the distant past when I first appeared in the world.

Numerous spirits of the abyss were summoned to worship me and be enshrined rank and title by my will.”

A calm voice suddenly sounded out in the vast hall.

Then in front of Qin Yu’s eyes, time and space were stretched out to infinity.

It felt as if he was falling through the abyss.

A sense of weightlessness struck him.

Luckily, this feeling only existed for an instant.

Then, he discovered he appeared within the pictures that depicted the ancient past.

In front of him was a black divine mountain that pierced through the earth and soared into the heavens.

Countless demonic runes surged on its surface, their light releasing an inexhaustible dignity.

Countless abyssal life forms were beneath the divine mountain.

There were Abyssal Demon Dragons, there were the heaven-lifting Abyssal Titans, as well as demon birds whose wings blocked out the skies…they were all from different tribes, but they all shared one common feature.

That was that they were all incredibly strong.

Qin Yu stiffened.

Feeling the aura of these abyssal life forms, the fear in him multiplied and his mind nearly collapsed.

Even so, all his attention was instinctively attracted to that mysterious existence at the summit…even if there were no aura fluctuations around it.

As if where that existence went, no matter what time or place, it would become the sole center of the world.

At this time, the mysterious existence at the summit looked up at Qin Yu.

It frowned and waved a hand.

A formidable repelling strength instantly erupted, pushing Qin Yu out from this sealed time and space.

Dang –

Dang –

Dang –

Qin Yu was forced back step after step.

His eyes widened and he gasped for breath as sweat streamed down his forehead.

“What you saw just now as a moment in time I inadvertently recorded.” The voice in the hall sounded out once more.

As the light around Qin Yu brightened, he could slowly make out the speaker.

With just one glance, Qin Yu could see that the person he was looking at was the mysterious existence at the summit of that image.

As for appearance or anything else, Qin Yu didn’t pay attention, because none of that was meaningful…he was him, he wasn’t him…he was omnipresent…he was omniscient…

The ‘Old Turtle’…this was the existence Qi Zhen spoke of that had survived for countless years, hidden within the Nightmare Ancestral Land.

He was…the abyss…or to be more accurate, a part of the abyss!

“You already understand my identity, so why not give up such illusory thoughts” Old Turtle slowly said, his tone calm and his expression emotionless.

But this calm revealed an undeniably mighty will.

Qin Yu revealed a look of struggle.

He lowered his head and gently shivered.

Old Turtle frowned, his tone become increasingly indifferent.

“You still think there is a chance Standing across from me means you are an enemy of the abyss, and you are in the abyss right now.

The only result is your destruction.”

He lifted his hands, his five fingers outstretched.

Each finger shined with light.

The halo of light wasn’t blinding, but was warm and gentle.

“Now, comply with my will and become the new Nightmare King.

This is your only chance to wash away your sins.

I will let go of the past and give you a chance to start anew.”

“Come, accept my gift.

You will become an Abyssal True King and obtain the approval of my will…Eternally Undying!”

Qin Yu’s titan body shivered even more fiercely.

A low and deep voice came from his lips, “Eternally Undying…just like the pawns that constantly awaken and undergo samsara Even if they want to die they cannot.

Hohoho, such an eternal life, I really don’t care for it.”

He looked up and revealed pitch black eyes.

This extreme darkness was able to conceal all.

Thus, even though the great sun hidden behind them erupted with a blinding light, none of that light spread out and instead was hidden within.

Old Turtle furrowed his eyebrows, restlessness in his eyes.

Although he didn’t want to acknowledge it, Qin Yu gave off an intense sense of threat, making him feel nervous and uneasy!

But what was it It was an aura similar to the abyss, but it absolutely wasn’t a strength that came from the abyss.

“Have you considered the consequences of refusing me” Old Turtle’s voice echoed in Qin Yu’s ears, flooded with an oppressive aura.

Qin Yu relaxed.

He knew that another part of the little blue lamp’s plan had succeeded.

Because Old Turtle’s attitude was the key inflection point for the second part of the plan.

Of course, even if there was a miscalculation and Old Turtle suddenly attacked, the little blue lamp had completed contingency measures.

But this would disrupt the follow-up and it would be almost impossible to achieve the ultimate goal of the entire plan.

Old Turtle…one could only say that it was a wrong name but not a wrong nickname.

This ancient existence that had almost the same aura as the will of the abyss had a naturally cautious disposition.

Of course, it was mentioned countless times before that there could never be too much caution.

But once caution exceeded a certain boundary…then this needed to be treated differently.

In short, Old Turtle’s cautiousness allowed Qin Yu to proceed along with the most optimal path for the plan.

Qin Yu coldly sneered and said, “Rather than becoming a puppet and being controlled, I might as well die heroically in battle.” He paused and then continued, “Moreover, I am not the only one that is willing to fight today.

Otherwise…how do you think I entered the ancestral land with such ease”

Old Turtle’s expression was faint.

“You also said that they are all under my control.

Even if they have a heart of rebellion, they can make no waves.”

He stopped and then leaned forward, “If you don’t believe it, you can give it a try…I am willing to give you a chance to go back on what you said.

After you see their fate, you will naturally be willing to accept the gift I have granted you.”

Qin Yu nodded, “Fine!”

He lifted a leg and pressed down.

The shadow beneath him began to violently shake.

“Qin Yu, what are you doing!” Qi Zhen roared in startled anger.

This was completely different from their original plan!

Shua –

Qi Zhen appeared in midair.

When his eyes fell on Old Turtle, he froze and started to shiver uncontrollably.

It shouldn’t have been like this.

How hateful! Just what was Qin Yu planning to do!

As he felt shock and anger, Qi Zhen thought of a possibility.

Did this boy come to an agreement with Old Turtle…or was he a pawn of Old Turtle to begin with, and all of this was done to lure them into making a move and then strangling them to death

If this was true, then everything he did was just a joke.

But this was impossible.

Qin Yu was clearly different from them.

If this was really all in the arrangements of Old Turtle, it was impossible for there to be no traces.

Just what was going on
