Chapter 1590: Blood-Colored Lake

That voice was something Qu Jianying had left behind. Long Chen was absolutely speechless. Could it be that as one’s cultivation base grew, it became more difficult for oxygen to reach their brain? Even at this time, she still had to be so compet.i.tive?

This was no different than a slap to the old man’s face. It was like an eighty-year-old playing in the mud. At this time, the old man was quivering with rage.

“Old man, this time I’m definitely on your side! We won’t let this enmity off lightly!” cried Long Chen righteously.

“Exactly! Don’t you think that woman is hateful?” raged the old man.

“Yes, you’re absolutely right. If I had women like that, I’d be beaten all day. However, we’ve lost this time. Now that we’ve activated the jade case, whether or not we use it, we owe her a debt. How absolutely sinister!” Long Chen was now on the same side as the old man.

“She really p.i.s.ses me off. Long Chen, you have lots of evil ideas. What do we do?” demanded the old man.

“What else can we do? Having taken such a loss, if we walked away with our heads lowered, wouldn’t it be so shameful that all men would be laughed at?” said Long Chen helplessly.

“f.u.c.k, I was grateful to her for nothing. She really needs a beating!” said the old man hatefully.

Long Chen felt like he had worked so hard for nothing. This senior Qu had to really be bored to add something so childish to her good intentions.

“Old man, let’s put this aside for now. We can’t waste this. We can’t suffer this loss for nothing. We’ll get our revenge for this later,” said Long Chen.

“Fine, I won’t bother with her. Tch, she definitely thinks that this would make me too angry to use this. Well, I won’t let things go as she wishes!” laughed the old man.

Long Chen was startled. So it really was senior Qu who understood the old man the best. He had actually misunderstood her intentions.

When he thought about it closely, this move of Qu Jianying’s was a bit superfluous. Since the old man had activated the jade case, it meant the old man had already accepted this favor. Provoking him some more was extra. Ah, the realm of supreme experts truly wasn’t something lower people could understand.

“Sit down. This is a memory formation condensed through life and death energy. Once activated, we’ll see how she entered the Netherworld. Don’t be careless. No matter what you see, don’t make a sound,” warned the old man.

“Alright, I understand.” Long Chen nodded.

The old man sat in a lotus-style position and pressed two fingers to his forehead. Long Chen felt some faint life and death energy flowing out of him.

Although the old man hadn’t reached the Netherpa.s.sage realm, he had comprehended the Dao of Life and Death. He was in possession of the slightest bit of life and death energy.

As his life and death energy circulated, the surroundings changed. Long Chen suddenly closed his sixth sense, and he saw that the surroundings were pitch-black.

He knew that this darkness was Qu Jianying’s memories. Long Chen had to experience it as she did, so he couldn’t activate the sixth sense.

As for any danger, he left that up to Evilmoon. It would warn him if there was any danger. Furthermore, the old man had the Heaven Splitting Blade. With two divine items protecting them, there wouldn’t be any problems.

The darkness seemed endless. It felt like he had been devoured by it and entered a world of eternity. Here, there was no time, no s.p.a.ce.

“This is the world of death?”

Netherpa.s.sage experts were able to control their life and death.

This phrase sounded nonsensical. Who couldn’t control their life and death? Couldn’t they just kill themselves?

However, this phrase meant something different. Netherpa.s.sage experts had to experience true death.

The physical body died. The Yuan Spirit died. However, the Netherpa.s.sage experts would retain the slightest trace of life, using it to enter the gate to the Netherworld. Then they would return from that gate, completing a cycle of life and death. After that, they would have truly reached the Netherpa.s.sage realm.

The darkness Long Chen was seeing was the darkness Qu Jianying had experienced after dying. This darkness would evoke instinctual fear in people.

There was no light.

There was no sound.

There was nothing.

Everything was still in death.

Suddenly, Long Chen saw a huge gate ahead of him. It was open just a crack.
