The five survivors glanced at each other. Among them there was one whose will was the weakest. He kept repeating that they wouldn’t be able to survive. Clearly, his will was collapsing.

“What should we do?” Someone asked. All of them were staring at Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian was the strongest among them and Princess Nongyue and the Saint Child Li Yufeng had high valuations of him. He naturally would be from an extraordinary background as well. Only after they came here did they know that the person who lured all the death gods away earlier, was Qin Wentian.

His cultivation base was the highest among the five.

“Let’s continue on, it’s useless to keep thinking about how we can’t survive. You might as well directly commit suicide if that’s the case. For those who want to live on, even if there’s only a sliver of chance, we have to continue on.” Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice. He himself wasn’t that confident but he had no other choice. Who would want to be in such a situation? But since all of them entered the forbidden ground of their own will, they should already be prepared for their deaths.

At this point, they could only continue on no matter what.

As the sound of his voice faded, Qin Wentian continued forward as the others followed behind him. Qin Wentian’s words weren’t wrong, if one still wanted to complain uselessly in such a situation, they might as well commit suicide. If they didn’t want to die, they can only continue forward.

The person who kept mumbling about dying froze. He gritted his teeth and followed after.

Only when one truly entered the depths of the forbidden ground did they know how vast this place was. Their desolate surroundings seemed endless, but luckily, they didn’t encounter any more danger which caused them to feel utter despair.

After passing the mountains here one by one, Qin Wentian could faintly sense the law fluctuations again. Somehow, there seemed to be something more here compared to the external boundary, but he didn’t know what it was exactly.

“I can’t take it anymore. I’m going to soar through the air, speeding towards a random direction. Maybe my good fortune would appear.” The person with the weakest will couldn’t endure travelling like this anymore with no purpose. He glanced around and asked, “Anyone want to come with me?”

The eyes of the others flashed. One of them added, “I will go with you. Let’s hope that there’s good fortune to be found.”

The remaining two glanced at Qin wentian. Qin wentian shook his head, “Since this is the forbidden ground, how can it be so easy to exit? I will continue heading deeper into it.”

The eyes of the two of them flashed. Immortal-foundation experts were able to fly through the air. But Qin Wentian is right. If one could leave here so easily like that, how could this place be called a forbidden ground?

“Let’s go.” The two who wanted to leave soared up into the air. Qin Wentian glanced upwards, the figures of the two experts grew smaller and smaller, gradually vanishing from his vision. They were already at an extremely high altitude.

However at this moment before their silhouettes vanished completely, a burst of green light suddenly appeared, enveloping the two of them.

“This…” The eyes of Qin Wentian and the others froze, they could feel a terrifying aura from the skies. The demonic green light illuminated the entire area, growing increasingly resplendent in an instant.

“They vanished!” One person spoke in shock. The two experts who left them had disappeared just like that.

“Did they die?” That old man who was stuck at the peak of immortal-foundation for over a thousand years mumbled. He stared in the air and radiated a lonely and sorrowful feeling.

“How can they not die?” Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice. A chill appeared in his heart, he also wanted to live but truth has proven that the path of survival wasn’t so easy to seek. At least up till now, Qin Wentian couldn’t see any.

“Let’s hope that there’s really something as we continue to proceed into the depths.” The old man sighed. Other than Qin Wentian, his will to survive was the strongest. After being stuck at this realm for so many years, how could his determination to break through be weak? With regards to death, he had already calmed himself and was ready to face it.

The other person remaining was a handsome young man with an extraordinary aura. He had an ancient sword strapped on his back and seemed to be a sword cultivator. He didn’t really talk much and kept quietly following after them.

“That’s true, who says there wouldn’t be a glimmer of hope at the darkest night?” Qin Wentian smiled, attempting to lift the mood. As he spoke, they continued to proceed forward. After a few months of time, they came to another place with a special characteristic. Before their eyes was a canyon but it was actually formed from a gigantic palm imprint.

The crater created was exceptionally clear, and that place even emanated an overwhelming pressure. Just standing by the side of it, one could feel a vast aura pressing down on them, wanting to crush everything.

“Is this forbidden ground really the immortal law mountains?” That old man asked in a low voice. “Being able to leave behind such a palm imprint, the cultivation of the person must at least be at the peak of the immortal-emperor realm.

Qin Wentian wondered about it as well. This mountain range had existed for countless years. The history of the palm imprint must be unimaginably long as well. Even now, the aura emanating from the palm strike had yet to fade. How terrifyingly strong it must be when at the beginning?

“Now, I’m only curious how vast this place is exactly.” The handsome young man quietly spoke. After they entered the forbidden ground, already a year plus of time have passed but they still could see no end to it. They didn’t know where they were supposed to go either. Hence, each of them were asking themselves, how vast was the forbidden ground exactly. Where would it lead to eventually?

“Let’s go.” Qin Wentian sighed silently. They then walked past the crater formed by the palm strike and could feel the powerful aura pressing down on their bodies.

This crater was extremely large. They spent quite some time before they finished walking past it. After that, they saw another mountain in the distance.

“There’s someone there.” At this moment, they could see a figure cloaked in black quietly standing in front of them. They instantly halted, not daring to make any movement.

At the next moment, the figure slowly turned about. Qin Wentian and his group saw a heroic looking face, the eyes of this figure were pitch black, gleaming with a divine glow, as though he was able to see through the three of them.

“He’s alive, a cultivator like us.” The old man sighed in relief. This was the first living human they met in the forbidden ground.

Li Yufeng told Qin Wentian that there was more than one entrance to enter the Darknorth Immortal Mountain. Those powerful experts would use the other entrances to enter. This man before him is highly likely to be one of those powerful experts.

“We pay our respects to senior.” Qin Wentian spoke.

That person glanced at Qin Wentian and the others. His heroic face was filled with curiosity and a little disdain. After that, he spoke in a low voice, “You guys are not afraid of death? Being able to survive for so long, how unexpected. Your lives must all be very tough.”

“Senior, we came in by mistake and met danger several times. Many of our comrades died on the way here. Is senior able to point out a path of survival for us?” The handsome young man beside Qin Wentian clasped his hands and spoke.

“There’s no path of survival. Given the cultivation bases of you lot, there’s only a path of death.” That expert calmly replied, his tone filled with certainty.

“A path of death?” The expressions of Qin Wentian and the two others changed. The old man spoke, “May junior be so bold to suggest, can all of us follow senior?”

That expert’s mouth curled up in contempt, “Are you all even qualified to?”

The countenance of the old man dimmed, he didn’t know what to reply. It was true that they weren’t qualified to get a supreme expert to bring them about.

“Senior, this brother Qin here is a friend of Princess Nongyue of the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty. He has an extraordinary status.” The young man beside Qin Wentian spoke, seemingly filled with reluctance. It was so difficult for them to find a hope of survival. As long as the expert before them was willing to help, there would be a high possibility of them being able to exit safely.

The eyes of the expert flashed as he glanced at Qin Wentian. After that, a mocking smile appeared on his face.

“What do you mean by this sentence?” He stared at that young man as he asked.

Upon sensing the sharpness of that expert’s gaze, the handsome young man hurriedly apologized, “Senior please forgive my words, junior has no other meaning.”

“No other meaning?” That expert laughed. After that he took a step out. With just a single step Qin Wentian and the two others all turned pale. They were instantly surrounded by an intense killing intent.

“Senior, mercy please.” Qin Wentian and the old man both spoke. Right now, this expert actually wanted to kill them because of a single sentence.

“Mercy? The friend of Beiming Nongyue? Are you attempting to use status to pressure me?” Lightning flashed in the eyes of the supreme expert. After that, a miserable scream rang out. The handsome young man was blasted into bits. Pieces of his flesh and droplets of his blood flew all about, some landing onto Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian’s countenance grew extremely unsightly.

Although the handsome young man was a little rash, it surely wasn’t enough to warrant his death. But this expert killed that young man just like that.

“I won’t kill you two. If you all can survive here and exit, you might as well help me to tell that little lass Nongyue that you’ve met Pei Qing in here.” That expert sighed. After that, he turned and left, departing this area completely.

“Pei Qing.” The old man’s eyes flashed with sharpness.

“Are you acquainted with him?” Qin Wentian asked.

“In this dynasty, the name Pei Qing is even more dazzling compared to Princess Nongyue.” The expression of the old man trembled. No wonder that expert killed off that young man for a single sentence.

“Pei Qing is the youngest immortal emperor of the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty. His speed in attaining the emperor-realm was unprecedented ever since the dynasty was established.” The old man spoke in a low voice, causing Qin Wentian’s eyes to gleam with sharpness. No wonder that expert was so proud, directly killing off a junior who spoke the wrong things just like that.

That expert looked so young, but he is actually an immortal emperor.

“Only the two of us are left.” The old man sighed. The group of them had entered the forbidden ground but now, only him and Qin Wentian remained.

“Let’s go.” Qin Wentian continued forward. They proceeded on and not long after, they halted again. Before them, numerous tombstones could be seen, all of them with no engravings, erected from the ground.

This place was like a graveyard!
