Chapter 1033, Terrifying Scene

Translator: Silavin

 

“Haaa…” In just an instant, Qin Yichen gave a muffled groan and collapsed, his face deathly pale.

 

After persisting for so long, would he still be unable to successfully escape from here?!

 

Countless spectres emanating Yin Energy auras shrouded over him like a canopy covering the sky.

 

However, at this moment, Qin Yichen could do nothing. He couldn’t even move a single finger. He could only watch helplessly as those spectres drifted closer, their Yin Energy invading his body.

 

His consciousness gradually blurred.

 

Just as the endless Yin Energy was about to engulf Qin Yichen, something suddenly stirred within his garments. A small head abruptly emerged from within.

 

It was unmistakably the inconspicuous little gecko!

 

Ordinarily, it was extremely drowsy, always sleeping near Qin Yichen’s Dantian position.

 

At this moment, it had probably sensed the Yin Energy, which made it uncomfortable, so it had awakened.

 

The small beast squeezed out from Qin Yichen’s robes, its clear eyes curiously observing the surroundings.

 

At this moment, the sky-full of spectres had already drawn near. Spectres emanating Yin Energy, with invisible mouths gaping wide, seemed as if they would devour Qin Yichen.

 

*Roar…* As if greatly displeased by this Yin Energy, the small beast shook its body and emitted what sounded like a very immature low roar.

 

*Gah!* Although the small beast’s roar was very small, just like an ordinary pet complaining, as its voice fell, those spectres’ charging forms suddenly froze.

 

Then, a cold wind surged violently. Countless spectres receded like a tide.

 

As the surrounding Yin Energy gradually retreated, they seemed to have encountered their nemesis.

 

Through this, Qin Yichen gained a moment’s respite.

 

“You saved me again…” Looking at the small beast on his body, Qin Yichen’s lips curved in a bitter smile as he spoke somewhat weakly.

 

He increasingly could not comprehend this small beast.

 

That special aura on its body was something ordinary people could not withstand even touching it. Yet strangely, Qin Yichen was completely fine.

 

There was even a feeling of sharing the same source.

 

After consuming several Pills and slightly recovering, Qin Yichen finally stood up.

 

Perhaps because of the small beast’s presence, even though his True Dragon Martial Soul had dissipated, the surrounding spectres dared not approach.

 

However, in this kind of place, Qin Yichen still dared not let his guard down.

 

This place was permeated with a strange aura. That area ahead had darkness so dense it could not dissolve. No one knew what truly existed within that darkness.

 

But perhaps the exit lay within that darkness.

 

Relying on the small beast’s presence, Qin Yichen moved his steps, approaching that patch of darkness.

 

Closer…

 

Within that darkness, mournful wails echoed continuously, as if Demons were trapped inside. The number of spectres here was even greater.

 

The Yin Energy here was bone-chillingly frigid.

 

This was not a temperature drop. Rather, it was coldness that struck at one’s Soul, enough to it tremble.

 

Fortunately, Qin Yichen’s Spiritual Energy cultivation was extremely high, his Spiritual Energy was highly condensed, able to resist these cold invasions. Therefore, it did not cause too much of an impact.

 

“Hmm?” Just as he approached that dark zone, Qin Yichen felt a tremendous fluctuation ripple toward him. Staggering, he retreated from the dark zone, only then feeling that fluctuation weakened.

 

“What is causing this disturbance?” Within Qin Yichen’s Knowledge Sea, his Spiritual Energy body opened its eyes. Simultaneously, his eyes became completely clear, seemingly able to penetrate everything.

 

He had activated his Divine Eyes!

 

Divine Eyes could not only appraise crystals but could also see things invisible to normal vision.

 

Having activated his Divine Eyes, the scene within the darkness ahead appeared vaguely in his field of vision…

 

What met his eyes was actually a coffin!

 

The mere existence of the coffin startled Qin Yichen.

 

[How could there be a coffin in this kind of place!?\

 

That coffin was also quite peculiar. It was perfectly square, with certain patterns seemingly carved upon it.

 

These patterns were ones Qin Yichen had never seen before. Yet they seemed extraordinarily ancient, so ancient he had never even seen records of such patterns!

 

This coffin had been placed here for who knows how many years, yet it still hadn’t decayed. Moreover, he clearly sensed that the powerful fluctuation from earlier had emanated from that coffin.

 

[Could it be that a Saint is buried within this coffin?] Qin Yichen’s heart stirred. Then he began carefully observing this square coffin. After a short while, he discovered with astonishment that this coffin was actually absorbing, or rather, devouring, the surrounding wandering spectres.

 

This situation was too strange!

 

A coffin was actually devouring spectres.

 

Faintly, he seemed to see dark lustres flash across the patterns on the coffin. Perhaps it was precisely because these patterns existed that the coffin could devour spectres.

 

The more spectres it devoured, the stronger the coffin’s aura became.

 

This gave Qin Yichen tremendous shock.

 

He could not understand which Race’s Saint lay within this coffin, and why they would choose to bury themselves in this Unreturnable Land!?

 

Here lay a divine Restriction set by Ancestor Hongjun.

 

Entry but no exit!

 

Throughout these long years, no one had ever been heard of escaping from here.

 

Then what was the purpose of placing the coffin here? To devour the spectres within?!

 

Qin Yichen could not comprehend it. However, when he shifted his gaze from this coffin to look elsewhere, he immediately could not help but suck in a cold breath, his eyes filled with shock.

 

Because within his field of vision, he didn’t know how many coffins identical to that black coffin were present.

 

The auras emanating from these coffins were all vast, proving that those buried within were absolutely no lower than the Saint Realm!

 

Roughly calculating, he discovered these coffins also numbered in the tens of thousands!

 

Tens of thousands of Saints!

 

“Who exactly orchestrated all of this?!” Qin Yichen trembled.

 

This was too exaggerated. Tens of thousands of Saints all buried here. This matter was somewhat beyond comprehension!

 

Take the Human Race, for instance. Even Saints Heavenly Manor combined with all the major Sacred Lands’ Saints could at most total up to be two to three thousand Saints.

 

Probably not even three thousand.

 

Yet here, tens of thousands of Saints were buried, and from the looks of it, they were all placed here simultaneously!

 

This number was actually dozens of times that of the Human Race!

 

Therefore, Qin Yichen could directly determine that those within the coffins absolutely could not be Human.

 

The Human Race had too few Saints. Even if the entire Human Race were slaughtered, it would be impossible to gather this number!

 

If not the Human Race, then who exactly possessed such Heaven Defying methods to bury tens of thousands of Saints here?!

 

Moreover, doing it so silently.

 

Just thinking about it made Qin Yichen’s scalp tingle. What worried him most was: what was that person’s goal in doing this!?
