Chapter 1084 Master Crocodile
“Master, where are you going?”
While the Wang Clan was fighting, Ye Qiu hurriedly left the hall in the Lingxiao Palace. Lin Qingzhu was very curious about his strange actions and couldn’t help but ask. Now that the army had set off, he needed to hold down at all times and preside over the Heavenly Courts. What was wrong with her master? Why was he suddenly leaving?
Lin Qingzhu was puzzled, and so was Zhao Wan’er. Linglong said, “I know, I know. Master must have something especially important to do.”
Ye Qiu smiled faintly and patted her little head. Then, he said to his disciples, “I’m going to visit an important senior. I’ll be back soon.”
Hearing this, Lin Qingzhu held Linglong’s hand in case she insisted on following and causing trouble for her master. “Master, go ahead. I’ll guard this place.” Lin Qingzhu said very sensibly. Ye Qiu smiled in relief and slowly left Mount Buzhou.
Before leaving, he found Xiao Jinse and instructed him about the Wang family.
Xiao Jinse was surprised that the Heavenly Courts would suddenly send troops to attack the Wang Clan. However, after understanding the cause and effect, he agreed with Ye Qiu’s actions.
Because the Heavenly Courts had just been established and their foundation had yet to stabilize, they needed a powerful opponent to intimidate them. The Wang family had undoubtedly stood out at this time.
Xiao Jinse did not think that there was anything wrong with this decision. He was just a little worried. After all, there was an Immortal Emperor standing behind the Wang Clan. His thoughts raced. He must have thought of a countermeasure when he thought of Ye Qiu leaving in such a hurry.
Then, he nodded and told Ye Qiu to do as he pleased. He was in charge of holding down Mount Buzhou. It was impossible for there to be too much chaos.
Ever since the battle at Imperial Pass, Xiao Jinse had comprehended the Dao on the spot and stepped into the integration of Heaven and man, comprehending the true will of the Heavenly Dao.
He had truly reached the same realm as Ye Qiu. Therefore, apart from Ye Qiu, he was the strongest person in the entire Heavenly Courts.
Even Fuze could not resist his Heavenly Dao will.
Sometimes, Ye Qiu really felt that this kid must have cheated. His sudden enlightenment directly soared into the sky and overtook him. Especially in the past few months of imparting the Dao, he had even comprehended the will of the Heavenly Dao to an unfathomable realm.
In addition, he had imparted the Dao and taught others, enjoying the fruits of heaven and earth. The current him could be said to be a true immortal.
Therefore, with him holding down and presiding over the Heavenly Courts, Ye Qiu could advance without worry. At the very least, with the strongest combat strength of the Nine Heavens, even the experts of the older generation were no match for Xiao Jinse.
The reason was very simple. There was a restriction in this world. Above the Dao Sacrificial realm was the ceiling. Unless an Immortal King appeared, how could anyone easily take down Xiao Jinse?
After leaving Mount Buzhou, Ye Qiu hurriedly headed to an undead swamp filled with black fog. The stench here was overwhelming. Countless living beings were buried under the swamp, and their bones were exposed to the ground, looking especially terrifying.
This place was known as a forbidden area that devoured life! It was a Forbidden Area of Life in the Wilderness.
Why was Ye Qiu here?
The reason was very simple. When he sent Fuze and Wild Bull to attack the Wang Clan, Ye Qiu contacted the veteran on the other side of the Netherworld.
Ye Qiu told him about the predicament he was facing. Regarding this, he pointed out a path for Ye Qiu. This path was the Undead Swamp known to devour life. Along the way, Ye Qiu encountered undead attacks from time to time.
Their resentment was extremely powerful. After tens of thousands of years of precipitation, their strength had even reached a terrifying level of the realm above the Dao Sacrificial realm.
Ye Qiu had just passed through the periphery when his body was in a mess. He couldn’t help but exclaim in his heart. “As expected of the Undead Swamp known as the Forbidden Area of Life. It’s indeed not a place where ordinary people can come.”
If Ye Qiu wasn’t bold, he really wouldn’t dare to go to such a godforsaken place where he could die at any time. He had to come this time because this time, it concerned the survival of the Heavenly Courts.
Since the Wang family had chosen to attack, there was no way to salvage this matter. The Heavenly Courts could not let them bully them. Only by destroying the Wang family could they convince the crowd.
The price of destroying the Wang Clan was to anger that Immortal Emperor far away in the outer realm. It was impossible for Ye Qiu to place all his bets on that Infinite Martial Monarch. After all, he didn’t know if that Infinite Martial Monarch was afraid of the Wang Clan’s Immortal Emperor.
There was more fear of karma between Immortal Emperors. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they would not easily help. They had many things to consider and were very cautious. They did not take a step forward and had to consider carefully.
Therefore, Ye Qiu didn’t have absolute trust in this Infinite Martial Monarch. At any time, he had to find a way out for himself before he could do it.
After passing through a fog, Ye Qiu arrived at a dangerous place. Here, dense forest covered the entire swamp, and black fog filled the air.
Ye Qiu could clearly see heavy chains hidden under the turbid swamp gas. He gently pushed away the black fog and saw the huge stone tablet standing between the two mountains.
“Demon Sealing Platform!”
This was an ancient altar. Under the altar was a very strange special totem. Ye Qiu had seen this kind of totem before. It seemed to be similar to the totem that sealed Celestial Thearch Zhen Wu back then.
However, this totem seemed to have become extremely rotten after tens of thousands of years of destruction by the conservative swamp gas. The seal was vaguely showing signs of loosening.
“Whew,” Taking a deep breath, Ye Qiu tried his best to stay awake. The moment he saw this totem, he already knew that he had found the correct place. Then, he stepped forward, cupped his hands, and shouted, “Junior Ye Qiu! A true disciple under Celestial Thearch Zhen Wu has come to visit Senior Crocodile.”
“Ke~”
The mud underground undulated slightly, emitting a strange sound. It seemed like the huge stone slab sealed underground had loosened slightly. Suddenly, a pair of blood-red lantern-like eyes was exposed in the darkness. Ye Qiu’s heart trembled, but he still stabilized himself.
The altar emitted a dazzling light, as if it was using all its strength to lock down the huge thing in the darkness. However, there didn’t seem to be much left of the rotten chains and the remaining Heavenly Dao laws and nomological. It couldn’t seal this guy at all.
What was more clear was that he didn’t attack Ye Qiu. Instead, he quietly sized up Ye Qiu in the black fog for a long time.
Seeing this, Ye Qiu knew that he could safely survive this calamity.
“Zhen Wu! A very familiar name. It seems… I heard this name a long, long time ago.” The huge thing in the darkness was thinking seriously. It muttered, and that rotten voice made one’s body tremble slightly.
It was difficult to imagine that there was such shocking killing intent under his calm tone. It could be seen how terrifying a god he had once been. If not for this karma, Ye Qiu really wouldn’t have come to see this legendary Immortal Ancient ferocious beast, the crocodile lord!
