C27 His Life Was Hanging by a Thread

Not long after Qin Ming entered the cave, three people suddenly walked into the ice world passageway. These three people were Gu Qing and his older brother, Gu Yu. The other one was called "Mu Yun," and he was Gu Yu's follower.

"Gu Qing, are you sure that the guy who hit you really entered this place?" Gu Yu frowned. Feeling the cold air around him, he couldn't help but look at Gu Qing and ask.

"Brother, don't you believe me? Look at me being beaten up like this. How could I lie to you? I'm sure those guys are here! " Gu Qing looked at Gu Yu and replied with a certain tone.

"Look! There is actually someone lying on the ground!" While Gu Qing and Gu Yu were talking, Mu Yun suddenly spoke. He raised his hand and pointed at Yuan Lang, who had been lying on the snow for a long time.

"What?" Gu Yu was surprised. He hurriedly led Gu Qing and Mu Yun closer. When they saw the person lying on the ground clearly, the three of them revealed a terrified expression.

"Yuan Lang of the Black White Dual Fiend!" Gu Yu couldn't believe it. The dead Yuan Lang was one of the famous Black and White Dual Demons in the outer sect, Yuan Lang. The Black and White Dual Demons were quite famous in the outer sect, so he naturally recognized the two of them.

"Why did he die here?" Mu Yun's expression was a bit strange. The Black White Duo Demons were known for their vicious names, and there weren't many people in the outer sect who could resist them when they joined hands. Yet now, they actually died here?

"Look! There's still one more person there!" Gu Qing's expression was a little strange. Just as he looked towards the snow ahead, he suddenly found another person lying on the snow, so he cried out in alarm and took the lead to approach that person.

"Black Fiend Geng Feng!" Gu Qing was dumbstruck. When he saw that the person under his feet was Geng Feng, he actually felt his scalp go numb.

Gu Yu and Mu Yun approached. When the two of them saw Geng Feng's corpse, their expressions could not help but tense up. They subconsciously looked around, afraid that there would be a strong enemy hiding in the surroundings.

"They were all killed by a single sword strike. Looks like the one who attacked must be a sword expert. The Cultivation Level must at least have a cultivation at the eighth level of the Transcending Mortality Stage to be able to do it!" Gu Yu's brows furrowed tightly. Based on his observations, he could roughly estimate the strength of the person who killed the Black White Duo Demons.

"Big brother, why do I feel that the person who killed them is very likely that Qin Ming?" Gu Qing revealed a doubtful expression and whispered the suspicion in his heart to Gu Yu.

"What? Impossible, didn't you say that Qin Ming was only at the second layer of the Transcending Mortality Stage? This is not something he can do! " When Gu Yu heard what Gu Qing said, he immediately rejected it. In his knowledge, there was no one who could cross several steps of the Cultivation Level to kill someone.

"This..." Gu Qing's expression froze. When he heard Gu Yu's words, he was actually speechless, and his heart was slightly perturbed.

"Brother Gu Yu, let's look around. If that guy is really here, it might be possible." Mu Yun frowned. He seemed to have found something difficult to say on Gu Qing's face. That was why he suggested to Gu Yu.

Boom!

Gu Yu nodded slightly. Just as the three of them were about to split up and search for Qin Ming and the others, an explosion suddenly sounded in front of them.

The three of them were startled and hurriedly flew towards the explosion. When they saw a huge cave, they stared at the cave with strange expressions on their faces.

"Could it be that they have entered this place?" Gu Qing was surprised and bewildered. He could not help but think of the map in Zhang Fan's hand.

"Universe Cave?" Gu Yu frowned. When he saw the two words "Universe Cave, a cold smile appeared on his face, It seems like we are going to have a fortuitous encounter!"

When Mu Yun and Gu Qing heard this, they looked at each other and nodded slightly. Then, they stepped into the cave side by side with Gu Yu and disappeared in an instant.

...

In the depths of the cave, Qin Ming was blocked by a stone bear demon. The stone bear demon was a tier two and five Demonic Beast. Its strength was formidable, and its defensive ability was astonishing.

At this moment, the Blood Shadow Sword in Qin Ming's hand was flying around in a rain of swords. Bang! Bang! Bang! The sound of explosions shook the cave endlessly. Right after Qin Ming sent the stone bear demon flying with a punch, Qin Ming suddenly rose into the air. The sword in his right hand was surrounded by sword shadows. Suddenly, the sword energy spread out!

Boom!

With a loud sound, the stone bear suddenly exploded and fell apart. Qin Ming took a grey demon core into his hand. Then, he jumped and rushed into the depths of the cave.

After Qin Ming had bravely rushed into the cave, he had unknowingly killed less than ten Second Grade Demonic Beast. The highest grade Demonic Beast was only a Sixth Grade Demonic Beast.

"Are we almost there?" Qin Ming frowned. He could finally sense Zhang Fan and Fan Hu's auras by turning around. He slowed down his pace and slowly approached the end of the cave.

"Who are you...?" Just as Qin Ming approached the light in front of him, the familiar voice sounded again, but this time it was clear as if it was right in front of him.

"Hmph! It's not your turn to ask who I am. Let go of my friend. I can let you go! " Qin Ming glared at the end of the tunnel. He was sure that the guy was not far ahead. That was why Qin Ming couldn't stop his footsteps, in case he entered a dangerous situation.

"Little brat, you're only at the second level of the Transcending Mortality Stage, yet you dare to challenge me? If it wasn't for the fact that you're different from the others, would you have come here?" An aged voice suddenly sounded. This time, he... It was no longer intermittent. Instead, he had a condescending attitude. He viewed Qin Ming as someone who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.

"Hmph! A dying man still dares to be so arrogant!" Qin Ming coldly harrumphed. He looked around the cave and strode forward. In an instant, he stepped into the glowing area and arrived at an empty palace.

In the depths of the palace, a shriveled old man wearing black clothes, who looked like a skeleton, was sitting on an altar. His hair was pale and his eyes were hollow. A black death Qi was coiling around his body. His eyes were glowing with a cold light as he looked at Qin Ming who was standing in front of him.

"It's actually a guy at the Soul realm!" Qin Ming revealed a cold smile as he looked directly at the other side. He didn't show any signs of fear and instead strode forward. He said, "Hand over my friend, or else your soul will be shattered by me right now!"

"Kid! Aren't you a bit too arrogant? Even if I can't move, if I want to kill you... That's a piece of cake!" The shriveled old man did not speak, but a loud voice came from within his body. Following that, a chilly wind blew in the palace.

"Hehe, do you dare to attack? You've cultivated to the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, yet you're actually unable to move an inch. Looks like your bottleneck is a dead knot. It's better to be at ease, or else your soul will disperse in advance. " Qin Ming was disdainful. Under his powerful Primordial Spirit, this old man had no way of hiding anything. That was why he didn't believe that this guy would dare to attack him.

"Who... who are you?" The withered old man was shocked. Qin Ming's words had hit the spot where he was afraid of. Otherwise, he wouldn't have tolerated a yellow-haired kid pointing fingers at him.

"Do you really want to know who I am?" Qin Ming sneered. He walked towards the altar and asked the old man a question. At the same time, he saw through the interior of the altar. There was actually the aura of Zhang Fan and Fan Hu!

"Damn it! You want to absorb my friend's Yang energy to prolong your life?" Qin Ming was furious. After seeing through the function of the altar, the sound of thunder was heard, and it instantly broke off all relations with the old man.

"You can actually see through my altar? Why is your Primordial Spirit so powerful?" The elder on top of the altar suddenly felt a trace of fear. He could feel the terrifying aura of the Primordial Spirit in Qin Ming's body. He actually had the feeling of submitting to ___. This was an innate fear.

"What is this? Hurry up and let my friend out, or else I will make sure that you will never enter the cycle of reincarnation!" Qin Ming's face revealed an ominous glint. The Blood Shadow Sword in his right hand trembled, and the sword light kept flickering.

"Arrogant!" The old man on the altar suddenly opened his eyes, and a ferocious expression appeared on his face. He raised his right hand, and the black Qi surrounding his body instantly transformed into a huge hand, and it rushed towards Qin Ming!

Qin Ming was startled. He jumped back and brushed past the giant black hand. A loud explosion erupted in front of him, sending Qin Ming flying dozens of meters away!

"Damn it! You want to fight me to the death?!" Qin Ming half-knelt on the ground, his face full of anger as he raised his head and stared at the elder on top of the altar.

"Haha! Fight to the death? You are too naive. As long as I devour the powerful Primordial Spirit in your body... I will be able to survive the Death Tribulation and return to my peak state!" The old man on the altar let out a ferocious laugh. It turned out that he had thought of everything long ago. When he realized that Qin Ming's Primordial Spirit was so powerful that it could replace his soul and return to the Western Paradise... Of course, he wouldn't let go of this great opportunity.

"I have painstakingly planned everything out and tossed the map out of the cave. I originally wanted to lure those greedy people into this place, to become the source of my continuation of life. But now I don't need it anymore, as long as I catch you... I, Li Ao, will be able to see the light of day once more!" The old man's voice was extremely cold, and the surroundings of the palace were instantly enveloped by a black aura of death. It had directly sealed off Qin Ming's path of retreat.

Qin Ming's expression turned ugly. After all this time, he was actually a sheep that had entered the tiger's mouth. However, he didn't think that he would die because his Primordial Spirit wasn't something that a small Soul Infant spirit realm cultivator could devour.

"You overestimate yourself. Even if I let you devour it, you are digging your own grave!" Qin Ming's face was cold as he stared coldly at Li Ao, who was standing on the opposite altar.

Under Qin Ming's gaze, the old man who was sitting on the altar, Li Ao, suddenly stood up. A gust of wild wind was stirred up. Li Ao leapt up and flew in front of Qin Ming. His face revealed a ferocious smile, and his eyes were flickering with a dim light.

"A puny cultivator at the second level of the Transcending Mortality Stage dares to be impudent in front of me? Even if your Primordial Spirit is extremely powerful, you still won't be able to escape from my palm! " Li Ao raised his arm and shouted. The Black Light in his right hand flashed in the void, and Qin Ming was instantly wrapped by a Black Light. He was going to freeze in the void.

"Haha! I, Li Ao, have been here for 800 years. Today, I finally have the chance to return to the outside world. I will never forget your kindness! " Li Ao was incomparably excited, and his withered arm slowly moved towards Qin Ming. It went straight to the top of Qin Ming's head.

"Hmph! I advise you not to touch me. Otherwise, you will die without a burial ground, and you will never be reborn!" Qin Ming's face was cold, and his eyes were shining with a cold light. He was staring at Li Ao without any fear.
