Chapter 2183: Chapter 2269: Chen Nan the Guide

Chen Nan cursed inwardly while keeping a close watch on the every move of Feng Lei Er Sheng and the white-bearded elder.

At this moment, it seemed calm and tranquil, but if there was the slightest disturbance, something big was sure to happen.

Chen Nan suddenly understood why, back then, outer domain resources and spiritual energy were so abundant, yet countless powerful figures in the Four Extremes World, from ancient times to the present, preferred to guard their domains rather than come to the outer domain for cultivation.

The phrase "there are skies beyond skies, people beyond people" was strongly validated in the outer domain.

Here, even if all ten-plus Heavenly Position experts were just at the Little Heavenly Position, they would not be his match, because Su Qingqing’s strength was already extremely abnormal, yet she was also no match for these Heavenly Position experts.

Shortly after Feng Lei Er Sheng finished speaking, they waved at Chen Nan, signaling him to step forward.

Knowing that escaping was impossible, Chen Nan had no choice but to step forward obediently.

"Boy, you said that the Lord of Corpse Control is currently fighting against the eight great elders of their Heavenly Corpse Sect, is this true?"

The face of the white-bearded elder was full of wrinkles, but his words carried an air of authority that sent shivers through one’s heart.

Standing before him was like having a giant mountain in front of you.

The strength of the white-bearded elder surpassed that of Mo Chenzi, the Grand Elder of Heavenly Corpse Sect.

This person’s strength was unfathomable, very likely the Grand Elder of Fenglei Pavilion.

"I swear, if there’s any falsehood in my words, may the Heavens strike me down!" Chen Nan vowed with a pained expression and said, "I saw it all with my own eyes. After the Lord of Corpse Control came out from Heavenly Pillar Peak, he went mad and killed the Heavenly Corpse King under him and is now fighting with the eight great elders."

"Nonsense, the strength of the Lord of Corpse Control is so strong, how could the eight elders dare to rebel against him?" An elder from the Flame Sect was clearly skeptical of Chen Nan’s account.

"Senior, everything I say is true. The Lord of Corpse Control seemed to not have recovered his Divine Power and was ambushed by Mo Chenzi with the Seven Absolute Palm, suffering serious injuries."

Chen Nan’s eyes darted around, continuing seriously. At this point, he could only hope for luck.

The four sect elders had apparently come initially just to reap some benefits, and now a huge temptation lay before them.

If there was indeed internal conflict among the top powerhouses of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, striking now might just uproot the entire sect.

In a sect thousands of years old, there were countless resources to covet.

Standing before these dozen Heavenly Position experts, Chen Nan vaguely heard the sound of someone gulping.

If the temptation was great enough, everyone is but human.

Even those who have cultivated to Heaven and Earth Divine Skills may find it hard to escape this law.

"Crack!"

An elder from the Shadow Sect, a mature and charming beautiful woman, stared at Chen Nan for a while before suddenly reaching out and grabbing his neck, lifting him up.

"Were you planning for us to attack the Heavenly Corpse Sect so you could escape amidst the chaos? Okay, boy, the Heavenly Corpse Sect has been around for thousands of years, and the moment you arrived, there was such a big mess. You are indeed a scourge; I shall extinguish you now."

She began to squeeze with her jade hand.

Attempting to snap Chen Nan’s neck.

Even a Great Star Position King, when faced with a Heavenly Position expert, might find it hard to escape death.

As the Shadow Sect elder strangled him, Chen Nan’s mind raced.

"Cough, cough... You... you just want to kill me, no need for so many reasons..."

Chen Nan’s face flushed red as he sputtered angrily, unable to hold back against a Heavenly Position expert.

If he didn’t speak now, he might soon have his neck snapped and die here.

The white-bearded elder glanced at Chen Nan and then cast a sidelong look at the beautiful Shadow Sect lady. "I heard that Fairy Mei died at the hands of this kid, but in the True Dragon Secret Realm, every person fends for themselves. I suggest moving on from that matter. Currently, it’s the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s business that’s important. He has insights into the situation in there, which are useful to us, and matters between disciples should be settled amongst themselves."

Chen Nan couldn’t help but feel a little relieved at the elder’s words.

The beautiful woman from the Shadow Sect evidently had received news of his killing Fairy Mei in the True Dragon Secret Realm.

She was clearly trying to seize the opportunity for revenge.

If one doesn’t uproot the weeds, there will be future troubles; Chen Nan felt depressed.

However, it was unavoidable, and fortunately, Feng Lei Er Sheng seemed to be speaking on his behalf; otherwise, the white-bearded elder wouldn’t have spoken so quickly.

Chen Nan cast a grateful look at Feng Lei Er Sheng, watching as the beautiful lady released him.

Only then did he finally breathe a sigh of relief, "Don’t worry, seniors. I know exactly where the Heavenly Corpse Sect elders and Sect Master are. There seems to be a Spirit Vein inside Heavenly Pillar Peak. I heard Mo Chenzi mention that there were Emperor Grade Spirit Stones in that Spirit Vein. When the Lord of Corpse Control emerged, he destroyed the Spirit Vein, gaining many King and Emperor Grade Spirit Stones, which broke the Barrier and provoked the attack of Heavenly Thunder Divine Fire."

Chen Nan intentionally shifted the blame onto the Lord of Corpse Control. What choice did he have? How could a dominant overlord with unmatched strength justify himself to someone of lower status?

Such arrogant pride doesn’t change easily, and the Lord of Corpse Control was the epitome of this.

Otherwise, when sealed, he would have at least waited for Chen Nan to lift the seal rather than outright rampaging.

"What he said seems reasonable," a Praying Heaven Sect elder nodded. "The Heavenly Corpse Sect has operated for thousands of years and naturally has a way to resist the Heavenly Dao. If not for the Spirit Vein’s destruction and Barrier’s break, the Heavenly Dao wouldn’t have sensed the killing aura and wouldn’t have attacked the Heavenly Corpse Sect."

The Praying Heaven Sect elder’s mind drifted: "Five hundred years ago, this scenario occurred once on Heavenly Pillar Peak. Though it was a small-scale assault, it was terrifying, just worse than now. But we don’t know who blocked it. When we perceived the Heavenly Dao’s killing intent and arrived near, all had returned to calm."

The dozen elders debated, evidently convinced by Chen Nan’s words. The white-bearded elder from Fenglei Pavilion smiled slightly, "Young brother, our Five Sects have a shared heritage and should support each other. However, since the Lord of Corpse Control has become utterly demonic, we have reason to assist for our Five Sects’ peace. You’ll guide us to Heavenly Pillar Peak swiftly, and when it’s all over, any benefits won’t overlook you."

The white-bearded elder, after hearing whatever Feng Lei Er Sheng conveyed, treated Chen Nan much more courteously.

These Heavenly Position experts from sects were even stronger than Tianshu Zi from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, so Chen Nan dared not act recklessly. Though the small child was powerful, he couldn’t fight alone against many, and Chen Nan didn’t want to burden him.

He gritted his teeth, leading the four sect elders and other experts in a grand procession towards Heavenly Pillar Peak.

Along they went, through certain Formation prohibitions he had secretly memorized before. Now even if flying, it was handled with ease, reaching Heavenly Pillar Peak soon.

Just as Chen Nan was about to land from the sky, suddenly, a buzzing pain struck his brain with unprecedented sharpness, making him scream and plummet from the sky.

Simultaneously, an unsurpassed terrifying aura spread from within the void.
