Chapter 236: The Shadowless Hall

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Crack!

The lotus emitted a crisp sound. Cracks appeared on the surface of this high-grade spiritual treasure. Obviously, this defensive high-grade spiritual treasure was somewhat unable to withstand it. If struck again, it would surely shatter completely.

“High-grade flying and defensive spiritual treasures are very rare. If we break his spiritual treasure, those two won’t be able to keep escaping.”

Seeing this scene, the two pursuing Quasi-Saint Realm Powerhouse exchanged glances. The elder who had just attacked even condensed a divine mountain, towering thousands of feet high as it appeared overhead. This massive divine mountain exuded terrifying might, flickering with divine light. It made Cao Yun’s heart tighten.

“You old fart, don’t you dare!”

Qin Hao placed the Black Tortoise’s Egg atop the lotus flower. Then, his entire body leaped onto the egg as vast energy and blood power erupted from his tiny frame. Dazzling divine light burst out from his flesh, forming a blood-colored divine ring around him. Like a blazing blood-red sun, it was extremely terrifying. He lifted a foot.

Bang!

A muffled thud rang out. His foot heavily stomped onto the Black Tortoise’s Egg. Though not loud, it made the two pursuers’ hearts skip a beat.

“Stop!” the old man said with a pained expression.

The divine mountain he had formed did not strike out, instead quickly dissipating into the sky. The Black Tortoise was famed for its defense. Even four or five same-level experts combined might not break through an adult Black Tortoise’s defense. But its egg might be different. If Qin Hao really stomped on it twice, the entire egg would likely shatter.

“Take another step and I’ll crush it underfoot!”

Qin Hao’s pitch-black eyes shone sharply as he pretended to step down again. This action caused the two Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses to slow their pursuit.

Just when Cao Yun and Qin Hao secretly relaxed.

Boom!

A boundless dark power blasted forth, and a huge pitch-black hand blotted out the sky as it instantly shattered the lotus flower. Cao Yun and Qin Hao were sent flying. This was a power of utmost Yin and gentleness. The black hand seemed to have slapped out from the dark depths of heaven itself, its terrifying might destroying all things.

Pfft…

Qin Hao and Cao Yun spat out mouthfuls of black blood. Their bodies shook violently as if pressed by countless mountains, crashing into a mountainside.

“The Shadowless Hall!”

Qin Hao stood atop the mountain, wiping the blood from his mouth, his eyes ice cold. He had heard of this power before. This faction was the very one that the older brother, who received his bone marrow transplant years ago, joined!

“The Shadowless Hall?”

Hearing this, the other two Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses’ expressions changed. The divine powers they had prepared were abruptly retracted. While their backing might not be weak, it also depended on who it was compared to.

They paled in comparison to the Dasui Empire, let alone the Shadowless Hall. The Dasui Empire had after all been founded by a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse in the past. This kind of inheritance was rarely matched by other factions. And the Shadowless Hall took it to an even more extreme level.

According to legend, they had connections to the mythical immortal world! With this rumor, whether or not the Shadowless Hall had a Great Emperor, they were not to be provoked by common people or factions. Since the Shadowless Hall’s status was transcendent, the prodigies who could join them were all peerless talents capable of dominating their generation. Casually selecting one would be an existence capable of sweeping through peers of the same level.

In everyone’s eyes in the East Barrens, while Su Chen was quite amazing, in a force like the Shadowless Hall he was definitely not the best.

“If I remember right, isn’t the Shadowless Hall from the Central Plains? How could they send people here?”

The two Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses exchanged glances, full of questions.

They couldn’t just say the Shadowless Hall had heard about an ancient sect appearing in these Desolate Mountains from so far away, right? That would be too ridiculous. Even if they’d heard, it was impossible for them to rush over so quickly.

“Qin Hao!”

Above the sky, a faint and indifferent voice resounded.

A black-robed youth appeared, his complexion extremely pale, like white paper, contrasting sharply with his attire.

At a glance, he appeared very young. But the aura emanating from him was not to be underestimated. He was unmistakably a Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse.

At this moment, he held a jade stone in his hand, forming an image in midair. The person in the image was none other than Qin Hao in his youth.

“It really is you!” the black-robed youth said.

With a clench of his fingers, the jade in his hand was crushed to powder. His cold eyes settled on Qin Hao as the corners of his mouth curved up.

“Let me introduce myself. 1 am one of Young Master Qin Yuan’s Dao Protectors, Qiu Tu!”

After that, the black-robed man descended step by step from the sky toward Qin Hao. His expression was remarkably composed, and he didn’t seem particularly concerned about the other two Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses.

Strictly speaking, he could not truly be considered a Shadowless Hall’s disciple, at most only Qin Yuan’s Dao Protector. But with Qin Yuan, the transcendent prodigy, by his side, he had gained some good fortune and established connections with the Shadowless Hall. Also, relying on these ties, he had benefited greatly himself.

He possessed a natural superiority over the Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses of ordinary forces. Even though he was only at the initial stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm, in his perspective, dealing with the two Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses was no issue at all.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

With each step, the black-robed man descended, and the might emanating from him strengthened. In the end, the oppressive force had solidified, like towering mountains pressing down on the hearts of those present.

The two Quasi-Saint Realm experts could handle it relatively better, but for Qin Hao and Cao Yun, it was becoming difficult to bear. Especially for Qin Hao, the pressure was mainly directed at him, and his small body had started to tremble. As the pressure mounted, the bluestone under his feet was webbed with cracks.

He was only at the God Altar Realm, lagging behind the black-robed man by three to four major realms. Furthermore, the fact that the opponent was originally a prodigy made the two of them seem like an insurmountable barrier, with their strengths standing like an impassable chasm between them. “Interesting!”

The black-robed man looked at Qin Hao, his face full of ridicule. Disdain colored his voice. “I originally thought you were already a cripple… What I didn’t expect was that you could still cultivate, even making it to the God Altar Realm. This is simply unbelievable! Forget it, forget it.”

The black-robed man seemed to recall something. He gazed at Qin Hao with pity-filled eyes. “Considering your persistent efforts, I’ll tell you some news, as you’re about to die anyway,” he said.. “Young Master Qin Yuan has recently successfully passed the Nirvana Tribulation, and not just any Nirvana Tribulation but the ninth Nirvana Tribulation!”
