Chapter 20: The Forbidden Area of the Yin Demon

The one who first appeared outside of the small valley was Qin Chong. With regard to Qin Yu’s current strength, a Transformation Realm cultivator was truly dreadful. He used a top class special escaping skill like “Blood Shadow Elusion,” yet he was still tracked all the way here. This also showed how he still wasn’t skillful enough at using the skill, otherwise, there was no way a trifling Transformation Realm cultivator could be able to pursue him all the way here.

Qin Chong’s footsteps halted as he neared the small valley. He seemed to have sensed something here but after he stopped and carefully probed, he couldn’t find anything.

Qin Yu knew how to conceal his aura, allowing him to hide from anyone who was probing with their spiritual sense. However, he could only conceal his aura and nothing else. But there was one thing he couldn’t conceal which was the Blood Core Grass’ unique and matchless stink.

Qin Chong quickly smelled the stink. As a Transformation Realm cultivator, he had naturally heard of the Blood Core Grass’s odor. However, he didn’t think that Qin Yu was hiding here, but rather that there was just a lot of Blood Core Grass here.

The Blood Core Grass was a spirit grass and to cultivators, spirit grass were naturally a treasure. Although Blood Core Grass was only a low level spirit grass and he had no use for them, it would be very useful for the younger generation of the Qin Family if he plucked them and returned with it.

He could naturally smell how strong the odor was. It was proof that there were a large number of Blood Core Grass inside. If it was only one or two, then he wouldn’t have bothered getting such a low-level herb.

The heavy stink came from inside the small valley and so, he went inside.

In a flash, Qin Chong arrived at the area Qin Yu had just been. Qin Yu had long left, leaving only the stinky fumes behind.

Qin Chong swepted his gaze around, astonished. The stink was here but there wasn’t any Blood Core Grass, how could this be?

Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something as he abruptly turned his body, his gaze like electricity. He launched toward a certain direction. There, in the underbrush was a person frantically dashing away, running into the darkness ahead.

“So you were actually here! You still want to flee?” Qin Chong shouted loudly as he rocketed, becoming a meteor in the sky as he shot toward the figure at tremendous speed.

Qin Yu didn’t run very far before halting his footsteps. Up ahead was a V shaped mountain path with a stone tablet. Several large, eye catching words were engraved on the stone tablet: Forbidden Area: Yin Demon. Unauthorized People Will Die.

Surging black qi blew from the mouth of the canyon. A human’s eyes were simply incapable of seeing what was beyond the darkness as the billowing black qi released a surge of cold winds. The winds blew to the valley, bringing forth a bone chilling cold.

The strange thing was that although the cold wind blew out from the canyon’s mouth, the surging black qi only boiled at the canyon’s mouth. It was constantly rushing forth, but never flowed out of the canyon mouth by even a hair.

“Hahaha…! Qin Yu, you evil creature! Today, the heavens want you to die! Let Laozi see where you’ll run now!” Qin Chong appeared in front of Qin Yu as he released a sinister laugh.

Behind Qin Yu’s back was the canyon mouth. Step by step, he retreated into the canyon.

This startled Qin Chong. “What, you really want to go in and court death?”

He knew how terrifying it was inside the forbidden area. The cold winds that blew at the entrance was devastating. Nobody could stand it. Even a Transformation Realm cultivator like him only dared to stand there for a short moment. Going inside meant certain death without any remains for an Origin Realm cultivator like Qin Yu.

Qin Yu grinned. “Dying? Don’t tell me that I won’t die if I’m left in your hands?”

After speaking this sentence, Qin Yu directly walked into the canyon. Qin Chong loudly shouted. “Wait! Qin Yu, as long as you hand over your cultivation resources, I’ll be lenient and spare you!”

Qin Yu turned around, his face containing what appeared to be a smile yet wasn’t a smile. “What do you want?”

Qin Chong wasn’t verbose and immediately replied, “First of all, your meridians were crippled and you had lost all your cultivation however, you’re not only completely healed but your cultivation is even better than before. You must’ve obtained some sort of heavenly, inherited cultivation treasure, otherwise, all of this would’ve been impossible! Second of all, just now, you used the Qin Family’s Rushing Thunder Palm with unusual strength. Have you obtained the true cultivation manual of Thunder Rushing Palm instead of the forged one we currently have? If so, hand over those two things I had mentioned and on my honor, I guarantee I absolutely will not harm you.” Qin Chong put on a very sincere appearance.

“Haha…!” Qin Yu roared with laughter, his disdain clear. “On your honor? You old matted haired, what honor do you have?!” 1

“How audacious! How dare you call me a matted haired?!” Qin Chong was furious but because he still hadn’t obtained Qin Yu’s inherited treasures and cultivational resources, he could only temporarily bear it. In any case, Qin Yu would undoubtedly die today and it wouldn’t be too late to kill him after he obtained Qin Yu’s treasures. It was only a matter of time now.

“So what if I curse you, you old matted haired? Bye!” Qin Yu cried out as he laughed and turned around, walking into the canyon with large strides.

“Stop!” Qin Chong shot forward, fiercely clawing for him as he swiftly charged after Qin Yu toward the canyon’s opening.

A whistle sounded as a dense, cold wind surged up violently. It assaulted the senses, making people feel like they were being suffocated.

“Not good!” Qin Chong shouted and frantically retreated ten meters back. His hand grabbed a piece of torn clothing. Qin Yu’s figure had already disappeared into the canyon, slowly vanishing into the surging black qi ahead until it faded away completely.

“Bastard!” Qin Chong fiercely threw the piece of torn cloth onto the floor as he let out a string of curses furiously. Qin Yu had already chosen to destroy himself and he hadn’t benefited from it.

He was even more amazed by Qin Yu’s performance. Since when did Qin Yu become so proud and unyielding, as well as heroic and unafraid of death?

He also knew the former Qin Yu. Although the former Qin Yu was resentful toward him, he had always been too afraid to do anything. But now, there was a difference as wide as the sky. It didn’t seem like he had changed on the surface, but the change in his temperament and aura was like heaven and earth.
