"Master Qin, could it be that Xu Nian is already dead?"
Nether Hai looked toward the deepest abyss of Immortal Extinguishing Valley with a gloating expression.
He knew that the sudden intensification of energy waves from within the deep valley must be related to Xu Nian.
Such powerful energy waves, let alone inside the abyss, would an certain death even in the valley.
Being within the abyss, under such a massive surge of energy, Xu Nian’s body would be completely obliterated.
"I’m not sure, but Nether Hai, let remind you, it’s best not to oppose Xu Nian anymore, dismiss such thoughts." Qin Ling scolded sternly.
"Master Qin, for a year, I went through great pains intercepting those Immortal Crystal Stones for him. You have no idea how much I’ve suffered. If I don’t avenge this, I can never be at peace. Yes, I can’t defeat him, but if he is arrogant enough to die inside, he can bla no one else." Nether Hai snorted coldly.
The hatred he held for Xu Nian couldn’t simply vanish.
The previous submissiveness was rely out of fear of Xu Nian’s power.
If given the chance, he would still kill Xu Nian without hesitation.
Qin Ling sighed and shook his head at Nether Hai’s words.
Nether Hai’s hatred for Xu Nian was too deep to be swayed by any persuasion.
He only hoped that Nether Hai wouldn’t regret his decisions later on.
"In my view, Xu Nian is dead. Even if it’s just an avatar of his, losing one is a great blow to his true self. Haha, what genius? Still ended up a dead man." Nether Hai laughed triumphantly.
Completely forgetting how he had previously pleaded in front of Xu Nian.
"Do you really wish for my death that much?"
Yet, at that mont, a cold voice erged.
Nether Hai’s body suddenly stiffened, a chill instantly running down his spine.
He turned rigidly, only to see that Xu Nian had sohow already stood behind him.
"You... You’re not dead?" Nether Hai cried out in fear.
At that mont, he felt like suffocating.
Qin Ling was equally shocked, staring at Xu Nian.
She had not noticed when Xu Nian appeared here.
Even at the Peak of Luoxian Realm, it shouldn’t be possible to silently appear within a few ters of her without detection.
How did Xu Nian manage that?
"Who said I was dead?" Xu Nian sneered at Nether Hai.
He had heard the entire conversation between Nether Hai and Qin Ling.
Initially, he was willing to spare Nether Hai’s life, but now it was impossible.
"Xu... Senior Xu, I... I didn’t really wish for your death, I..." Nether Hai stamred in panic.
But his explanation was incoherent.
Xu Nian sneered, extended his hand, and struck at Nether Hai through the void.
The next mont, a vast energy erupted.
Instantly obliterating Nether Hai into dust.
"No..."
Nether Hai let out an indescribably tragic cry, but ultimately vanished completely from this world.
"This..."
Qin Ling’s eyes widened in astonishnt.
The energy wave contained in Xu Nian’s strike just now was identical to the one that erupted in the valley of Xianjue Mountain.
Most importantly, Xu Nian’s cultivation seed to have reached the Peak of Luoxian.
"Could it be that he has mastered the secret of Xianjue Mountain?" Qin Ling wondered to herself.
However, Xu Nian paid no attention to Qin Ling’s thoughts.
At this mont, he was imrsed in the Heaven and Earth Laws he had just invoked.
"The Heaven and Earth Laws of this Taichu Universe are indeed formidable, equivalent to a First-grade Law in level, and comparable to a mid-level degree in mastery, even though I haven’t fully grasped them yet. If I master it well in the future, it can even reach a high-level degree."
Xu Nian felt the control he had over the Taichu Universe, a smile of excitent appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Let’s call it Taichu Law," Xu Nian thought to himself.
Now, Xianjue Mountain could no longer confine him.
The laws here entirely emanated from him as the center.
He could make the laws here disappear entirely if he wished.
However, Xu Nian ultimately decided not to let the law power here vanish.
Because if the law power here disappeared, strong practitioners would notice, co to investigate, and if they traced it back to him, it would be troubleso.
"Fairy Qin, I killed Nether Hai, I hope you don’t mind," Xu Nian said to Qin Ling.
Qin Ling shook her head.
"The fate that befell Nether Hai today was entirely of his own making. I know you once wanted to spare him, but he didn’t cherish that chance," Qin Ling sighed.
Xu Nian chuckled.
Seeing that Qin Ling was as he thought, reasonable, he didn’t mind leading her out.
"Fairy Qin, would you like to leave?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.
"Huh?" Qin Ling was taken aback.
"I’ve already found a way out. If Fairy Qin is willing, you can leave with ," Xu Nian smiled.
"Really?" Qin Ling exclaid in delight.
For over a year, she had been searching for a way out, but all efforts ended in failure.
So when Xu Nian said he could take her out, it was as if a holy light shone upon Xu Nian.
"But before we leave, there’s sothing we need to do first," Xu Nian suddenly smiled.
"Do what?" Qin Ling was puzzled.
"Follow , you’ll know soon," Xu Nian said with a smile.
The next mont, the two were inside the abyss.
Qin Ling was overwheld with shock at the sight of the towering peaks of Xianjue Mountain ahead.
To see so many Immortal Crystal Stones, how many could there be?
"Dig as much as you can, but don’t tell anyone about this," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Really, we can dig freely?" Qin Ling was imnsely shocked.
"Yes, dig to your heart’s content!" Xu Nian chuckled.
Qin Ling looked stunned.
She knew the reason she could safely reach the depths of Xianjue Mountain was entirely because of Xu Nian.
And now, Xu Nian was even sharing these Immortal Crystal Stones with her.
This imnse fortune made her feel surreal.
While she stood dazed, Xu Nian had already started digging.
She saw how Xu Nian skillfully controlled the Dragon King Cone, extracting those Immortal Crystal Stones from the cliffs, seemingly placing them inside his storage ring.
Each dig resulted in several tons.
And so, Qin Ling also started digging without hesitation.
She never expected that the Immortal Crystal Stones, for which people outside struggled for days or even weeks to obtain a small amount, could now be obtained by digging.
About a day later, Xu Nian and Qin Ling finally stopped.
There was simply too much.
They had excavated plenty, yet it was still just a fraction of the entire abyss.
The Immortal Crystal Stones they gathered would certainly suffice for cultivation over tens of thousands of years.
"It’s ti to leave, you exit the abyss first, I’ll join you shortly," Xu Nian instructed Qin Ling.
Qin Ling didn’t hesitate and didn’t question what Xu Nian intended to do.
She imdiately left.
She understood, so things weren’t ant to be asked.
Knowing would bring her no benefit.
After Qin Ling left, Xu Nian began to activate the Taichu Core within his body.
Created a Law Imprint within the valley.
As long as the Law Imprint remained, the place would continue to produce an energy wave every fifteen minutes, just as before.
However, the energy waves wouldn’t co from the Taichu Core anymore.
Instead, they would originate from the Immortal Crystal Stones within the abyss.
"This Law Imprint should sustain Xianjue Mountain for several hundred years. After several centuries when Xianjue Mountain’s mist disappears, no one will tie it back to ."
Xu Nian chuckled softly.
"It’s finally ti to fetch the Taiqing Holy Water," Xu Nian said to himself.
With that, his eyes settled on the mysterious forest outside.
