Chapter 1666: His Origin

The sky suddenly darkened.

More and more dark clouds gathered and piled up gloomily, blocking any light from shining in.

It was clearly noon, but darkness fell like twilight. A heavy shadow fell over everything around them.

The wind stopped.

The wilderness became increasingly quiet. However, the silence was inexplicably unsettling.

The black-robed man suddenly gripped the Glowing Sky Staff tightly with both hands and pointed it at the sky! “Go!”

The sound was far and vast, and it spread mightily between heaven and earth!

Suddenly, the third rune on the Glowing Sky Staff erupted with a blood-colored pillar of light and soared into the sky!

Whoosh!

The empty air shook! The surrounding natural energy was affected and began to tremble crazily!

The blood-colored pillar of light shot into the sky and tore a hole in the deep clouds!

Like a stone falling into a calm lake, ripples instantly appeared!

In the sky, dark clouds surged and stacked! A bloody hole appeared in the black clouds.

The blood-colored light on the Glowing Sky Staff also spread silently in the surroundings! Soon, half of the sky was dyed a shocking blood color!

The two extreme colors of black and red intertwined.

Thick killing intent gradually spread and crushed toward the ground, almost suffocating!

…

Time seemed to pass especially slowly at this moment.

A blood-colored pillar of light surged out of the Glowing Sky Staff and connected to the sky.

In the dark world, this blood color was especially eye-catching.

The power above kept surging, causing the blood in the sky to gradually spread. Unknowingly, it had already covered a large area of the sky.

Chu Liuyue and her party were quietly included in the scope covered by this blood color.

Rong Xiu looked up and narrowed his deep phoenix eyes dangerously. It seems that this time, he really plans on taking that thing away from Yue’er at all costs… Using this move is almost risking his life.

There seemed to be waves in his eyes as a rich black-gold color flashed past.

He closed his eyes gently. When he opened them again, they were calm again.

Chu Ning stood beside Rong Xiu, his heart in his throat. His fists were clenched, and he felt almost nothing as his wounds opened.

His eyes were fixed on Chu Liuyue. You must… be safe…

…

This commotion was huge and could be seen clearly for a hundred miles.

Nan Yuxing and the others were naturally no exception.

They had always been very concerned about the situation over there. At this moment, when they saw the blood-colored pillar of light that soared into the sky, they couldn’t hide their excitement.

“What’s that?” Nan Yiyi frowned, her face filled with curiosity and nervousness. Even from such a distance, she could still sense the terrifying pressure and murderous aura on the blood-colored pillar of light!

She pressed a hand to her heart. “The full-strength attack of a legendary warrior… is indeed not to be underestimated.”

“It seems that the black-robed man has completely taken action.” Nan Yuxing narrowed his eyes, feeling both afraid and happy.

He had lingering fear because that black-robed man was indeed extremely strong. Even if the few of them weren’t injured, they might not be his match if they joined forces!

He was delighted because Rong Xiu and the others were undoubtedly the first to bear the brunt!

“He’s already made up his mind to take their lives. Of course, he won’t show mercy.” Elder Wu Peng’s voice was low, and his brows were slightly furrowed as if he was thinking about something. “It’s just…”

“Just what?” Nan Yuxing asked subconsciously.

Elder Wu Peng paused. “It’s just that even now, I haven’t figured it out. He said that place is his territory… What does that mean?”

Nan Yuxing was stunned for a moment. Isn’t this sentence… literal? Could there be any other understanding?

Elder Wu Peng fell silent.

Nan Yuxing and the others were still young and didn’t know much about the God-Killing Tumulus, but he had heard many rumors related to this place.

Ever since the shocking battle tens of thousands of years ago, countless legendary warriors had fallen in the God-Killing Tumulus. In the years that followed, this place was filled with a strong killing intent that never dissipated.

Even powerful cultivators had to be very careful to enter this place.

However, he had never heard of anyone daring to say that the God-Killing Tumulus was their territory—even if it was only a small area.

It had to be known that there were top warriors buried here. In particular, where they were just now was the tombstone area of legendary warriors. With a step, they might be able to step on the former skeleton of a legendary warrior!

And that black-robed man… did not seem to be lying…

“I… I think… the aura on that person is a little familiar…” Elder Bai Tong—who had been silent for a long time—finally recovered some strength and spoke.

The few of them looked at him.

Elder Wu Peng frowned. “Familiar? You recognized him?”

Elder Bai Tong shook his head.

Because of his broken calf, he could only rely on a walking stick to support his body. His face was pale, his lips were bloodless, and he looked very haggard.

Even his voice sounded much weaker.

He paused and glanced at Elder Wu Peng with a complicated expression. “…Don’t you think that the aura around that man is a little similar to the people from Black Demon Hole?”

“Black Demon Hole?” Elder Wu Peng and the others were stunned.

“Didn’t they go into seclusion a few years ago?” Nan Yuxing frowned.

Their Nan family had never interacted with Black Demon Hole, let alone after Black Demon Hole secluded itself. If not for Elder Bai Tong’s sudden mention, Nan Yuxing probably wouldn’t have thought of this name again.

“They’ve always been arrogant and unrestrained. Moreover, I heard that everyone in the sect is ruthless. Although I haven’t heard much about them in the past few years… those people from Black Demon Hole aren’t easy to deal with.”

Elder Wu Peng was experienced and had seen many storms. Although he had never fought Black Demon Hole head-on, he had heard a lot of rumors about it a few years ago.

For some reason, they had suddenly disappeared from the God Residence Realm in the past few years.

“That’s not important now. What’s important is that the man indeed seems… to be from Black Demon Hole.”

Elder Wu Peng fell into deep thought. “Then, why is he here…”

“It doesn’t matter what his identity is, as long as we can completely deal with those people!” Nan Yuxing waved his hand impatiently.

They had suffered at the hands of Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue, so they naturally wanted to get back at them.

Although it was a pity that he couldn’t do it himself now, it was good to be able to deal with them directly.

Nan Yiyi pursed her lips as if she wanted to say something.

Nan Yuxing’s gaze shifted slightly. Seeing her expression, how could he not guess what she was thinking?

His expression turned colder. “Yiyi, are you still thinking about Rong Xiu?!”
