Chapter 362: The Truth Behind the Destruction of Qionglae Grand Realm (4k2)
Chapter 362: The Truth Behind the Destruction of Qionglae Grand Realm (4k2)
After crushing the soul fragment in his hand, Qin Zheng didn't hesitate. His eyes abruptly changed, becoming distinctly black and white, as he manifested the Dao One Seal.
In that instant, the world within his eyes transformed, revealing countless intricate threads of cause and effect.
Qin Zheng's gaze swept across, and he immediately honed in on one of the threads that was rapidly fading away.
Heart Demon Chu Ying!
At this moment, the Primordial Demon in the Void Spirit Realm held an irresistible allure for Qin Zheng, even surpassing the Heart Demon within him!
By capturing him, there was a high chance of obtaining a new Spiritual Secret Realm!
Furthermore, he could explore the truth behind the destruction of the Qionglae Grand Realm from a different perspective.
Having locked onto this thread of cause and effect, Qin Zheng swiftly snapped his fingers, and a strand of Immortal Slaying Sword Intent instantly surged along the thread.
Vibrant!
At that moment, ripples appeared in the void, and a figure in azure robes wielding the Absolute Immortal Sword emerged before him.
"Sorry for the delay."
Wu Qingping spoke first.
His longsword was still stained with traces of blood, and his aura was not entirely calm.
Qin Zheng retracted his gaze and asked, "Are you about to break the seal?"
Wu Qingping nodded slightly. "The sealing power suddenly weakened significantly, and parts of the body have already broken free from the seal."
Qin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this.
Could the weakening of the sealing power be related to the Primordial Demon he had just killed?
Without dwelling on this thought, Qin Zheng continued, "I just arrived as a soul fragment. Its main body should still be within the seal, but it's likely about to break free."
The current situation meant that two Primordial Demons were about to break free from their seals, posing an unprecedented crisis for the Human Race in the Spirit Ruins.
However, despite this news, Wu Qingping's expression remained calm. He turned to Qin Zheng and asked, "What do you plan to do?"
He had already sensed the shift in Qin Zheng's aura, which had reached the same level as his own.
Given Qin Zheng's demonstrated combat prowess, his strength would undoubtedly increase with his elevated cultivation.
Qin Zheng replied, "I'll immediately go and slay the main body of the Primordial Demon that just arrived."
"Senior, you should return first to prevent the Demon from breaking the seal."
"Also, keep an eye on the other Void Spirit Realms. Check on the status of those Demons."
"I sense something amiss. I wonder if these sealed Demons will all break free."
After he finished speaking, Wu Qingping didn't question Qin Zheng's abilities or show concern. Instead, he smiled lightly and nodded, saying, "Alright."
Immediately, he tightened his grip on his longsword, took a step, and re-entered the Void.
Meanwhile, Qin Zheng followed without hesitation, taking a step into the void.
In the boundless void, within a Void Spirit Realm enveloped by turbulent void currents.
"Damn it!!"
"Despicable Humans!!"
"Once I get out, I'll tear you into a thousand pieces and scatter your soul!"
Roars filled with rage echoed through this Void Spirit Realm.
In this moment, the entire world was shrouded in a surging tide of demonic energy.
Boom!
Amidst the dark clouds of demonic energy, thunderous roars continuously reverberated.
Streaks of lightning, resembling naga spirits, struck the ground one after the other.
The world seemed on the brink of destruction.
Following the source of the demonic energy, at the center of this Void Spirit Realm, stood a towering figure.
Beneath this mountain-like figure were four arms, all supporting the weight of the mountain above!
The mountain didn't touch the ground but instead pressed down entirely on this figure!
The dense demonic energy permeating the realm emanated from this very figure.
As the demonic energy intensified, the mountain above him grew heavier.
"Hmph!"
With the increasing weight of the mountain, the Demon snorted but continued releasing demonic energy, allowing the mountain to grow.
At this moment, from a distance, one could see the mountain showing signs of cracking under the strain.
It seemed the mountain had reached its limit, and further growth would lead to its collapse into countless fragments.
"Let's see how heavy this mountain can get and how long it can keep me suppressed!"
The Demon seemed to sense this as well and responded with a cold laugh.
But as the weight of the mountain on his head increased, his four arms began to show signs of bending.
This mountain was no ordinary mountain; it was a seal-turned mountain, capable of suppressing countless years without easily shattering.
Stone Meng didn't mind; he had tried for countless years, and now that there was hope of breaking the seal, it was already a rare opportunity.
Moreover, he believed that as long as he persisted, it wouldn't be long before he could completely break the seal.
It was just a pity that the waste who came before couldn't help him break the seal and couldn't bear his greater strength.
After his return, he was actually killed by a Celestial Immortal-level Human, making Stone Meng even angrier!
Buzz!
At this moment, a spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared in the Void Spirit Realm.
Stone Meng's expression first turned slightly solemn, and then he immediately became furious.
"Is it you?!!!"
"You dare to come again?!!!"
He roared.
Then, a figure wearing a Golden Patterned Black Robe slowly appeared in his field of view.
Qin Zheng stood far away, looking at the floating mountain in surprise.
He could sense that this mountain was not ordinary.
Then, looking down at the figure beneath the mountain, he suddenly had a thought.
This was a true suppression.
A mountain suppressing a demon! The ancient Human tribes were far more adept at developing arrays than the modern ones.
With this thought, Qin Zheng slowly stepped forward, saying, "Why did you invade the Qionglae Grand Realm in the first place?"
"Tell me, and I'll help you break the seal."
As Qin Zheng approached, Stone Meng's face was initially filled with ferocity.
But upon hearing Qin Zheng's words, he paused slightly, as if he hadn't anticipated this situation.
However, in the next instant, he looked at Qin Zheng with disdain and said, "You want to know? Why should I tell you?"
"Do you think you can come here and negotiate with me?"
"Today, you must help me break this seal, or you'll die!"
As his last words fell.
Rumble!
The ground suddenly shook violently.
And in front of Qin Zheng, a huge boulder suddenly fell from the sky, landing a foot away from him.
Then.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One boulder after another fell, and in an instant, they combined to form a ten-zhang-tall stone monster.
"I said! You have no right to negotiate with me!"
The stone monster sneered, clenching its fist and slamming it towards Qin Zheng, who looked like an ant on the ground.
Boom!
After a loud boom, a thousand-li-wide giant pit instantly appeared on the ground.
But when the stone monster lifted its fist, the Human was nowhere to be seen.
What's going on?!!
The stone monster was puzzled.
But at the next moment.
"Too slow!"
A calm voice sounded in his ear.
Then, a gust of powerful wind blew, and a fist imprint, like a Heaven-Splitting Earth-Shattering force, slammed onto the stone monster.
Boom!
Dust filled the sky.
At this moment, beneath the mountain, Stone Meng's expression had already turned gloomy.
He could only release a limited amount of power, but the stone monster that had just appeared was formed by his innate divine ability.
Although his strength was not as great as Taiyi, it was not on the level of a Celestial Immortal, and he could defeat it!
This Human in front of him had something!
"What do you really want?"
He asked in a deep voice.
Qin Zheng also took a step forward, reaching the edge of the mountain, and said calmly, "I want to know what happened back then."
"Why did you invade the Qionglae Grand Realm?"
"What was the highest level of existence that took action back then?"
"How many demons were sealed like you?"
"And among the sealed demons, were there any Great Dharmarajas?!"
After Qin Zheng's last question.
Stone Meng paused slightly, then chuckled, "You know quite a bit, Human. That's interesting."
Then, his expression turned solemn, and he continued, "I can tell you, but you must promise that after I give you the answer, you'll help me break this seal!"
"And you must swear to the Heavenly Dao!"
Qin Zheng calmly nodded and said, "I, Qin, swear to the Heavenly Dao that if you tell me the answer, I will help you break the seal."
After saying this, Qin Zheng suddenly felt as if an enigmatic power had emerged within him.
It was like a shackle binding him.
To break free, he would have to fulfill his promise, or else he would harm himself!
Heavenly Dao Oath
So, there was such a thing. It seems that the destruction of the Qionglae Grand Realm had led to a scarcity of many cultivation resources.
Qin Zheng didn't mind the empowerment, as he had never lied from the start.
Beneath the mountain, Shi Meng saw Qin Zheng's oath and felt relieved, then spoke up, "I don't fully understand the questions you just asked."
Pausing slightly, he seemed to observe Qin Zheng's reaction.
Seeing Qin Zheng's calm expression, he continued with a hint of disinterest, "The first question, why do we invade the Qionglae Grand Realm."
"This question is simple. The Demon Emperor ordered the Demon Race to wage war against the Human Race, so we had no choice but to invade the Qionglae Grand Realm, a realm belonging to the Human Race."
"The second question, what realm was the strongest existence that intervened back then?"
"In a war between two races, naturally, the strongest would emerge. But I'm not sure what realm it was."
"The third question, how many other Demons were sealed like me?"
"I'm even less clear about this. When I, the Holy One, was sealed, there was no escape. How would I know who else was sealed?"
"Similarly, I don't know if there were any Great Dharmarajas among the sealed Demons."
As Shi Meng finished, he looked at Qin Zheng with a hint of surprise, "You know quite a lot, even about realms like the Great Dharmaraja."
Qin Zheng ignored him, instead organizing the information from their conversation in his mind.
The truth behind the destruction of the Qionglae Grand Realm was that the Demon Emperor wanted to wage war against the Human Race!
So, the war between the two races had already begun countless years ago!
Even the strongest existence from the Taiyi Realm didn't know about it!
This suggested that the strongest existence on both sides might be even more powerful than the Great Dharmaraja!
These two pieces of information cleared up most of Qin Zheng's doubts.
The Qionglae Grand Realm was just one of the battlefields back then!
From the destruction of the Qionglae Grand Realm to the sealing of the Great Demon, it seemed the Human Race was slightly weaker in the ancient war.
However, a new question arose in Qin Zheng's mind.
If the war was between the Demon and Human Races, what caused the disappearance of the Immortals and Gods? He had previously thought that the destruction of the Qionglae Grand Realm might be related to the disappearance of the Immortals and Gods, but now it seemed they were separate events.
Qin Zheng's mind was filled with new thoughts.
"Alright, I've answered your questions. Now it's your turn to help me break the seal!"
At this moment, Shi Meng's voice interrupted his thoughts.
Qin Zheng looked up and saw the Great Demon's face filled with smugness, as if everything was under his control. He spoke, "You don't have to help me, but you've sworn to Heaven. If you break your oath, the consequences will be terrifying!"
"Mildly, you'll lose your cultivation and lifespan. Severely, you'll die on the spot, your soul scattering!"
"You decide how to handle it."
Qin Zheng remained calm and asked directly, "How can I help you?"
Seeing Qin Zheng's unwavering stance, Shi Meng's eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly said, "On the peak of this mountain above me, there are several array banners."
"My aura can't affect those banners, but you can. Go and pull out those banners, and you'll help me break the seal."
Qin Zheng nodded, then took a step and soared into the sky, reaching the mountain's peak.
He saw the eighteen five-zhang-long array banners planted on the summit.
As he arrived, a terrifying carnage power surged, as if warning him.
This power could still threaten an ordinary Celestial Immortal, but it was no longer a threat to him.
Qin Zheng took a step forward and instantly reached the summit. Before the carnage power erupted, he raised his hand and pulled out all eighteen banners.
In an instant—
Boom!
The mountain beneath him shattered into countless fragments.
"Hahaha!"
"I, the Holy One, have finally broken the seal!"
A voice filled with joy and madness echoed.
A seemingly limitless Demon Qi burst forth.
Boom!
The heavens and earth shook, and the void trembled.
It seemed this fragment of the realm couldn't bear the aura of the Taiyi Realm.
Then, the Great Demon soared into the sky, appearing before Qin Zheng with a sinister smile, "I never thought the one to free me would be a Human!"
"So, I'll repay you first by killing you."
Before he could finish,
A figure in a golden robe took a step forward, blocking his path.
Following closely, a terrifyingly powerful sword light filled his entire perception!
