84: Chapter 84 The Nine Nether Hound Raises the Five Elements Mountain, Releasing the Undying Being Kunpeng.
The atmosphere in the plaza in front of the great hall was eerie and heavy.
The members of the Qin Clan, who were originally high and mighty, were all kneeling on the ground, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Not far away, that five elements mountain was trying its best to restrain its divine light, attempting to disguise itself as an ordinary ornamental rock.
And at the center of all this was a moving scene.
Shi Hao, this god-like youth, currently looked just like a three-year-old child.
But this scene is understandable, right!
After all, he had been separated from his parents for so many years.
Let him vent properly!
"That five elements mountain, right? Can you release the Kunpeng Zi you are suppressing now?"
"Or should I do it myself?"
At this moment, the Nine-Nether Ao Wang Teng actually revealed a secret that made the five elements mountain tremble.
Beneath this mountain was the son of the Kunpeng.
That legendary Undying Being.
He had been suppressed for who knows how many years.
So long that almost no one knew about it anymore!
Yet this person before it knew it clearly.
And even wore an impatient expression.
"This..."
"What? Do I still have to do it myself?"
"No, no, no..."
The spirit of the five elements mountain really wanted to refuse.
It really wanted to be tough for once, to shout: "This is a prisoner designated by the Heavenly Venerable, who dares to be presumptuous!"
However, when its peripheral vision caught sight of the object in Wang Teng's hand, which was gently tapping the void.
And when it saw that pair of pale gray double-pupils scanning its body back and forth, as if looking for "where to take a bite that would be crunchier."
Its hard stone heart completely collapsed.
What did it matter if it was a True Immortal artifact?
In the face of absolute "gluttony," all living beings were equal; everything was just food.
"I... I will lift it..."
The five elements mountain spirit transmitted a divine thought, sounding extremely aggrieved and on the verge of tears.
"Rumble—"
The earth began to tremble violently, as if a subterranean dragon was turning over.
That five elements mountain, which had stood in Bulao Mountain for countless years and had never moved even an inch, now emitted a dull, thunderous friction sound.
Its massive mountain body, accompanied by dust filling the sky and five-colored divine light, extremely slowly and extremely reluctantly... rose from the ground!
As the mountain rose, a wave of black wind, which had been suppressed for countless epochs.
Filled with decay and chill, yet mixed with an extremely violent aura, roared out from the abyss at the bottom of the mountain!
"Whoosh—"
As this wind blew, the temperature in the plaza instantly dropped to freezing.
The Qin Clan cultivators kneeling on the ground, even those in the Venerable Realm, felt as if their souls were about to be frozen.
Wang Teng, however, was completely unaffected.
He stood at the edge of the pit with his hands behind his back, his double-pupils, which could see through falsehoods, piercing through the rolling black mist to look directly at the very bottom of the abyss.
There, an ancient cage was being eroded by the passage of time.
And in the center of the cage was the legendary—Undying Being.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this treatment is truly miserable."
Wang Teng shook his head and sighed.
At the bottom of the abyss sat a thin, withered figure.
It was a person, yet did not look like one.
His flesh seemed to have dried up, with his skin clinging tightly to his bones, presenting a sickly, withered yellow color.
His long hair, which should have been as brilliant as gold, was now like tangled grass in the autumn wind, withered, yellow, and messy.
It draped over his shoulders without any luster, obscuring his face.
What was most shocking was his state.
Dense runes flickered with the unique sealing divine light of the Heavenly Venerable Bulao.
Like maggots on bone, they were tightly wrapped around his withered body.
Every rune was constantly draining the essence from his body, attempting to refine him completely.
And beneath these runes were four thick, dark red divine iron chains.
These four chains were not tied around his hands or feet, but were cruelly—directly piercing through his shoulder blades!
The blood had long since drained, leaving only charred marks at the wounds.
The chains passed through his bones, nailing him tightly to that huge piece of Profound Ice Divine Stone.
This made him not only unable to move but also unable to mobilize even a shred of the divine power within his body.
This was the method used by the giants of the Upper Realm to deal with their enemies.
Not only suppressing your physical body but also torturing your soul, letting you watch yourself wither away bit by bit throughout endless years, until you despair.
"Heavenly Venerable Bulao..."
Although the withered yellow figure was motionless, as if already dead.
The soul fire within him that had not been extinguished, along with the hatred carved into his bones, began to revive as the five elements mountain moved away.
"Hum..."
His withered fingers trembled slightly, and the withered yellow hair on his body, like tangled grass, moved without wind.
He did not lift his head.
But a palpitating, fierce aura, like an awakening ancient beast, instantly filled the entire abyss!
"Who... who moved... the five elements mountain..."
The voice was hoarse, like two pieces of rough sandpaper rubbing together, making one's teeth ache, yet it carried a pressure that penetrated the soul.
Wang Teng looked at this incredibly miserable "Kunpeng Zi."
The playfulness in his eyes receded a bit, replaced by a touch of coldness.
"That old bastard Heavenly Venerable Bulao, he certainly played dirty."
"Hanging you up like cured meat for so many years."
Wang Teng took a step forward, his figure dropping directly into the abyss, landing in front of the withered yellow figure.
He reached out a hand and grabbed the thick chain that pierced through the other's shoulder blades.
It felt ice-cold to the touch, and vicious curse runes were engraved upon it.
"Don't... don't touch it..."
The withered yellow figure seemed to sense the approach of an outsider and struggled to lift his head.
The messy hair parted, revealing a pair of eyes with deep-set sockets, burning with two balls of golden ghost fire.
He stared fixedly at Wang Teng, his voice intermittent: "This chain... is connected to... the five elements mountain...
The source... moving it... means certain death..."
He thought Wang Teng was a descendant of the Qin Clan, or someone who had accidentally wandered into this place.
These chains had restrictions; once touched, they would trigger the full suppression of the five elements mountain.
However.
Wang Teng smiled.
He looked at those golden ghost eyes, the corners of his mouth curling into an arrogant arc:
"Connected to the five elements mountain?"
"That's perfect."
Wang Teng's palm suddenly exerted force, and within his palm, the Power of Samsara erupted, transforming into a six-colored grinding vortex!
"Then let's just break this damn chain, along with that damn mountain..."
"All at once—shatter them for me!!"
"Crack!!!"
Without any hesitation. Wang Teng's Nine-Nether Ao immense strength, which was enough to crush stars.
Combined with the indestructible laws of reincarnation, he squeezed the divine iron chains in his hand fiercely!
Snap!
Snap!
Snap!
Snap!
Four crisp sounds, loud enough to shatter eardrums, rang out at the bottom of the abyss.
Those four dark red divine iron chains, which were said to be unbreakable even by True Immortals and had imprisoned the Undying Being for countless years.
In Wang Teng's hands, they were like four rotten ropes.
They snapped at his touch!
"Puff!"
The five elements mountain suspended above, due to damage to its source, spewed out another stream of five-colored radiance, its mountain body shaking violently, emitting painful cries.
"Ah!!! My source!! Be gentle!!"
The five elements mountain spirit screamed.
And at the bottom of the abyss, as the chains shattered and the shoulder blades were freed.
The withered yellow figure suddenly stiffened.
Immediately after.
An indescribable golden wave of energy erupted from his withered body like a volcanic eruption!
"Roar!!!"
He roared at the sky!
This roar carried the grievances accumulated over a million years!
This roar shattered all the sealing runes on his body!
His originally withered yellow hair instantly began to glow, turning into a brilliant golden color at a speed visible to the naked eye!
His shriveled muscles began to bulge as if being inflated!
The Undying Being Kunpeng Zi.
Escaped!
