Chapter 722: Crossing the River
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
How was this possible? The Elder King had found a way in such a short time?
Still, they believed him. Qin Chen would never lie.
As such, there really might be a way to cross the 800-mile River Lethe now.
The true dragon and the big scorpion looked at each other in surprise.
The flame-wing beast was getting increasingly excited as it looked at Qin Chen. The Elder King was becoming more and more secretive, making it even more difficult for them to see through him.
The reason why the flame-wing beast followed Qin Chen was that the latter had many secrets. Every single one of those secrets was extremely terrifying.
During the period that it had followed Qin Chen, it had continuously broken through. Now, it had already reached the God Venerable realm.
One had to know that in the outside world, one could be invincible in the absence of quasi-emperors if one broke through to the God Venerable realm!
If the flame-wing beast didn’t encounter a quasi-emperor, it wouldn’t ever be injured.
Thinking of this, the flame-wing beast grew excited.
Everyone felt the same as the flame-wing beast. They knew that the latter was extremely powerful, and it was all thanks to Qin Chen.
At the same time, they also gained a lot of benefits from following Qin Chen. Every time he obtained a great fortune, he was never stingy and would share it with them.
It was also because of this that their strength grew so quickly.
If this continued, it was hard to say whether they would have the potential to step into the quasi-emperor realm.
In the past, they had never dared to even look at a quasi-emperor. But now, after such a long time, the number of quasi-emperors killed by Qin Chen was already a terrifying figure.
Even quasi-emperor-realm experts were just alright in front of Qin Chen because the latter had many trump cards, and each of them could kill a quasi-emperor-realm expert.
Originally, when they were forced to enter Death Underworld Mountain, everyone had quite a bit of doubt in their hearts.
If Qin Chen had a powerful trump card, he wouldn’t have needed to fear those elders of the Thousand Yin Holy Sect. He could easily take care of them.
But at that time, he had chosen to bring everyone into Death Underworld Mountain when they didn’t know how dangerous the mountain was.
Now that they thought about it, the dangers were nothing at all, because Qin Chen had practically brought them along with him and they survived every danger.
Presumably, he wanted to seize the great fortune in Death Underworld Mountain. Only this could explain his choice.
“Let’s go cross the river!”
With Qin Chen’s order, everyone immediately followed him.
Even Daoist Jiuji didn’t know what method Qin Chen had to cross the 800-mile of River Lethe.
In his opinion, this 800 -mile of River Lethe was incomparably terrifying. He wondered what method the other party had chosen.
After some time, they were very close to the river now.
Qin Chen smiled and looked at the terrifying white fog. Then, he warned everyone to be careful.
“Everyone, be careful and pay attention to your condition.”
The reason why Qin Chen gave such a reminder was that although the white fog did not have any life-endangering danger, it contained some kind of demonic power that could affect people’s minds. It could even make the illusions condensed by Daoist Jiuji produce consciousness.
From the looks of it, the 800-mile River Lethe was really problematic.
The white fog seemed to be even thicker than before, giving off a bone-chilling feeling.
Not long after, Qin Chen brought everyone to the River Lethe. He looked at the bottom of the River Lethe again and found that the bones of those peerless experts were still there.
He was quite apprehensive because his wrist had been grabbed by a pair of rotten hands before. God knows if that black shadow would appear again.
As such, he needed to be alert now while hurrying up and preparing to cross the river.
Immediately after, Qin Chen took the innate sword embryo out and infused his divine power into the extreme emperor weapon.
In an instant, the extreme emperor weapon was revived, and a powerful fluctuation erupted, shocking everyone.
When everyone saw the innate sword embryo transform into a huge sword, they could not help but become excited. Could it be that the Elder King was going to use the innate sword embryo to send them to the other side?
Qin Chen immediately ordered everyone to jump onto the sword.
Then, the water of the 800-mile River Lethe automatically split apart, leaving a path for everyone to pass through.
Before this, they hadn’t realized what was going on. But now, they finally understood. So it turned out that as long as there was a weapon or treasure with the aura of an ancient great emperor, it could make the water of the River Lethe retreat.
Qin Chen and his group flew on the giant sword with incomparable ease, but still, they worried that something unexpected would happen.
After all, under the terrifying reputation of the 800-mile River Lethe, there would surely be terrifying situations. The River Lethe’s reputation was most certainly not groundless.
One must know that countless quasi-emperor-realm experts had failed to cross the River Lethe. As such, Qin Chen and the others had no choice but to be vigilant. After all, this concerned their lives.
It was also at this moment that Qin Chen finally discovered something. Many black shadows suddenly appeared from the River Lethe below them.
The black shadows were, without exception, carrying the aura of decay. They were like dead spirits as they pounced toward everyone.
To the black shadows, the ancient great emperor aura exuded by the giant sword that was carrying Qin Chen made them like sharks that had smelled the blood of fish.
They immediately threw themselves at Qin Chen and the others, wanting to get them down from the sword.
Qin Chen was incomparably fearful. He immediately turned to Daoist Jiuji, the true dragon, and the flame-wing beast, ordering them to attack.
They could not let those black shadows get close to them.
If the other party was allowed to get close, it would be hard to say what would happen. After all, those who died in the River Lethe were all peerless experts and these black shadows were most likely related to those experts’ deaths.
Therefore, they were in extreme danger now. There was no room for error.
Daoist Jiuji immediately condensed countless wooden spears in his hands and struck at the black shadows that were flying over.
The flame-wing beast and the true dragon also unleashed their divine might, unleashing endless rules in an attempt to kill the black shadows.
Unfortunately, the black shadows were very powerful.. Although they were faced with incomparably terrifying attacks, they managed to withstand them!
