Chapter 598: Chapter 566: Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak Descends (Part 2)

Qin An showed a look of realization, just like he did in the Forbidden Land of Extreme Heat back then.

"However, even if the abilities from the Forbidden Land of Extreme Heat are displayed, it might be extremely difficult to resolve the current crisis?"

The situation is different now. If the presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak uses Qin An as a medium to reappear and only shows the capabilities from back then, it is incapable of solving the crisis here.

The female voice paused slightly, then said: "It’s the same yet not the same. The same is that I need to use you as a medium to resolve this crisis. The difference is, this time, I will unleash greater power."

"Firstly, because of the Jinluan Holy Hall; secondly, when that gate opens, I can trace the source and find a method to temporarily infuse more power."

Upon hearing this, Qin An, being quite adept with various systems, simply speculated a bit and found truth in the female voice’s words.

Qin An nodded and said: "If that’s the case, let’s start now. The sooner this danger passes, the sooner I can return to the Evil Extermination Bureau."

The current situation was increasingly dire, and he planned to madnessly enhance his abilities upon returning.

The presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak was not one to waste words. After Qin An made his decision, it immediately said:

"Alright, just like before, relax your mind, I have a method to resolve this."

Qin An said no more and then relaxed his mind.

Next, the one who first experienced a change was instead the elder seated beside him.

The elder fell into a dazed state during Qin An’s communication with the female voice.

Once Qin An agreed to collaborate with the presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak, the elder immediately returned normal.

The elder looked around; his face suddenly changed, sensing a presence permeating everywhere, his eyes showing a hint of reverence: "The Lord is finally about to descend?"

Just as he spoke, the presence surged suddenly, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, it flowed towards Qin An.

From Qin An emerged a pure essence of Evil Qi.

Though the quantity was not high, the purity was several times above that of the elder’s Evil Qi.

As the elder’s Evil Qi flowed towards Qin An, the Evil Qi emerging from him visibly fused with the elder’s Evil Qi.

Soon after, Qin An’s tightly closed eyes slowly opened, revealing a gaze not like his own.

"Thank you all for your effort," Qin An slowly said.

Both the tone and demeanor were not his own.

At this moment, the presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak temporarily commanded Qin An’s body.

Yet Qin An’s perspective was strange; he could see everything around him and even sense the existence of his body but also felt as if another consciousness dwelled within him.

The elder immediately bent respectfully and said: "To maintain peace for the Defender Lord is my duty. After years, seeing the Defender Lord’s grace again is my fortune."

The presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak shook its head slightly, saying: "Alright, no need for idle talk, I certainly want to see what they actually intend to do."

With that, the presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak maneuvered Qin An’s figure, taking a step forward.

Just this one step spanned countless distance, arriving instantly at the same main hall as at the beginning.

At this moment, the interior of the main hall differed from its past. The gate was opening wider, enlarging from the original slit to the size of a fist.

Both sides continued their fierce battle, leaving many Mountain Patrol Commanders as corpses; likewise, demon pseudo-gods had sustained significant losses.

Despite the Mountain Patrol Commanders’ efforts to prevent further casualties, they still could not wholly stem the tide.

Precisely because of this, the gate opened so much.

Qin An’s appearance immediately drew considerable attention.

Gu Yun turned his head to look, his brows tightly furrowed.

Qin An at this moment seemed less a person and more akin to a pseudo-god, his aura exceedingly terrifying.

Countless Mountain Patrol Commanders had thoughts about what had transpired.

Before they could react, the first to respond was a young man among the demon pseudo-gods.

Seeing Qin An’s current appearance, the young man abruptly turned and fled.

Yu Caiyi also paused in surprise, able to discern the young man’s apparent intention to escape.

But at that moment, Qin An slowly spoke: "The accomplice of the betrayer dares to flee. Should you escape today, where will my authority stand?"

Under the female voice’s maneuver, Qin An slowly raised his right hand, pointing his finger forward.

In an instant, a stream of Evil Qi burst from the fingertip with such precision it pierced the young man’s head.

The young man fell to the ground, becoming a cold corpse. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

In that moment, the entire hall sank into a deathly silence.

Everyone present stared at Qin An in astonishment.

Particularly Yu Caiyi, who felt a creeping terror spread within her heart.

As a leader among the elite, possessing the pinnacle strength of the Celestial Cloud Path, she could also sense the peculiarities surrounding Qin An.

The young man’s strength was certainly not inferior to hers yet was instantly destroyed by Qin An’s bare hands, showcasing a terrifyingly formidable power.

Quietly, she retreated a few steps, her eyes slowly accumulating fear.

The Wolf Demon leader was now covered in scars, and witnessing the young man’s death, he suddenly let out a frenzied laugh: "Hahahaha, superb, superb, another dead one, this gate will completely open, you will all die!"

The female voice manipulated Qin An to slowly speak: "With me here, they cannot emerge; death will come upon you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin An raised his hand.

Then, the terrifying Evil Qi transformed into a vortex of Evil Qi, permeating the entire palace, yet consciously avoiding those from the Evil Extermination Bureau, swirling towards the surroundings.

As this vortex of Evil Qi spread, the demon pseudo-gods touched by it instantly perished, including the Wolf Demon leader.

Yu Caiyi now touched by the Evil Qi, her entire body sank into agony, quickly grasping the two Fish Demons beside her, one being Yu Tian.

The Evil Qi surged within her, the two Fish Demons, Yu Tian included, rapidly turned to ash, causing her wounds to slightly improve.

Yu Caiyi saw the Evil Qi seemingly about to consume her utterly and screamed.

But before she could vocalize, the Evil Qi swallowed her whole.

The remaining demon pseudo-gods, like Yu Caiyi, found they could not resist the engulfing Evil Qi.

Within mere seconds, they all transformed into ash drifting through the air.

An ample amount of vitality filled with boundless Evil Qi, rushing towards that immense bronze gate.

Gu Yun and other Mountain Patrol Gold Generals witnessing this scene uniformly furrowed their brows, thinking to themselves: "Terrible, something beyond the gate is about to come out!"

At this moment, Qin An was in a peculiar state.

He could see everything around him but was unable to control his body. He could also see something terrifying seemingly about to appear from the bronze gate.

Just then, from the bronze gate reached out an arm.

The arm was covered in dark veins and knotted muscles, with an aura of terror quickly spreading out with its emergence.

At this critical juncture, the presence from the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak controlled Qin An’s body and delivered a palm strike.

Infinite Evil Qi accompanied Qin An’s palm, crashing against the bronze gate.

The arm that emerged was hit by the palm and quickly retracted to its original position.

The bronze gate gradually closed.

A voice from within the bronze gate echoed out, carrying boundless rage.

"Defender, you cannot stop us; we will ultimately come forth!"
