Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 468 : Backlash

"Ah—"

"Grandma, please don't!" cried Ji Huo'er, her little face turning a shade of purple as she spoke. She wasn't worried about Qinchuan though, as she believed his strength had to be far superior to Leng Han'er and others since he had managed to pass through the Killing Formation.

It was just that she was lively and loved to move around, and she had almost died of boredom when she wasn't allowed to leave the mountain. The thought of facing the wall at the Cliff of Reflection for a hundred years was more unbearable than death itself.

Qinchuan patted Ji Huo'er's little head, signaling her not to panic, and stood in front of her as he spoke coldly,

"This Young Master originally wanted to help you out of the great trouble facing Thousand Fox Mountain, out of respect for Yu Xu'er. However, since the Sect Leader does not welcome me, it seems I was meddling unnecessarily."

Qinchuan looked self-assured, without a trace of fear. But the next moment, his tone shifted once more, "However, this Young Master has come to Thousand Fox Mountain this time to retrieve a certain item from the Thousand Fox Cave. Once I have taken that Spiritual Treasure, even if Thousand Fox Mountain wishes to hold me back, I will have to give it careful consideration."

Upon hearing this, the faces of all the elders and the Sect Leader of Thousand Fox Mountain, including Ling Xian'er, changed dramatically.

What Qinchuan said was too arrogant.

At this time, even the white-robed woman holding the Divine Blood Lotus in the center of the altar opened her eyes and looked towards Qinchuan.

Her gaze was like lightning, with thousands of stars seeming to rise and fall in her eyes, and her terrifying presence pierced directly to the soul. She was unmistakably a Quasi-Emperor.

She was the supreme elder of Thousand Fox Mountain, known as Mei Qian'er.

Mei Qian'er glanced indifferently at Qinchuan and remained silent.

But Ling Yu'er and the others knew that the supreme elder was already angry.

"Who is this bold madman causing trouble on my Thousand Fox Mountain? A mere cultivator at the Dao Palace Realm dares to speak of my ancestors by name?"

"The Thousand Fox Cave is our clan's prohibited area. Even elders are not allowed near it during ordinary times. How could it be a place where an ignorant child can enter just because he wishes to?"

A few elders spoke out harshly once again, rebuking Qinchuan.

The Protector named Leng Han'er had already gracefully stepped out from the crowd, her presence cold as ice and frosty winter, staring indifferently at Qinchuan.

"Boy, I'll give you three breaths to disappear from my sight, to immediately get off this mountain. Otherwise, if I have to take action myself, you won't be able to leave Thousand Fox Mountain unscathed," she said.

Qinchuan, however, seemed not to notice and didn't even glance at her, only looking distantly at the supreme elder.

The supreme elder at the altar, no matter how she offered the Divine Blood Lotus, found it impossible to open the Thousand Fox Cave, which showed no reaction to the Divine Blood Lotus.

Unconsciously, she began to use her own mana in an attempt to forcibly merge the Divine Blood Lotus with the Thousand Fox Cave.

Since the ancestor left that prophecy, she believed that the Divine Blood Lotus was indeed the key to opening the Thousand Fox Cave.

Seeing this, Qinchuan slowly said, "If you increase your mana by three more points, the Thousand Fox Cave will start to backlash. Don't blame this Young Master for not warning you when you're the one suffering the consequences!"

On the other side, Leng Han'er, seeing Qinchuan so blatantly disregard her and completely ignore her, was infuriated to the extreme.

"Courting death!"

Leng Han'er's presence was as chilling as frosty winters. She cast a spell with her palm, creating an ice-cold aura that seemed to freeze thousands of miles, pressing down on Qinchuan.

Leng Han'er had reached the realm of the Holy, and with a simple movement she could destroy heavens and earth. Within that radiant light, the power of the cosmos was contained, turning the sky dark in an instant.

At the same time, the remaining elders also looked on indifferently, their hearts filled with solemn respect.

"Hmph, this kid had to provoke the wrong person, daring to provoke Elder Sister Leng!"

"Elder Sister Leng's temper is notoriously volatile. This kid really is not afraid of death, daring to ignore her. Even if the Sect Leader intercedes now, it won't matter. This kid won't leave without losing a layer of skin," they muttered.

Ling Xian'er's expression changed drastically at that moment, and she exclaimed, "Elder Leng, don't do it!"

The oncoming aura was frigid to the core, shooting towards Qinchuan's head to suppress him.

All that could be seen was that Qinchuan remained immovable, his mana surging. Countless True Qi and mana overflowed, and at the same time, copious amounts of Spiritual Energy ascend from the ground, swirling around him.

In an instant, a dense fog enshrouded him, Immortal Mist twined about him, and Dao Magic formed a light screen around his body, creating a piece of battle armor that shone with a spiritual light. He appeared incomparably holy and divine.

"Pfft—"

The violent gleam of light that shot out struck the Spiritual Qi Battle Clothes and merely emitted a faint sputtering noise. Then, to the onlookers' astonishment, the divine light that was as tumultuous as waves dissipated instantly upon contact with the battle clothes transformed by Qinchuan's surrounding Spiritual Qi.

As for Qinchuan, he remained unscathed and stood his ground.

"What? How is that possible?!"

At this moment, the expression of all the elders of Thousand Fox Mountain changed drastically, and cries of shock arose from the crowd.

Everyone was astounded and looked at Qinchuan with an indescribable sense of shock and awe.

Leng Han'er's face flushed with shock as she cried out, "Impossible! Even a Great Saint at the Peak wouldn't dare to withstand this move. How could you be unaffected?!"

"You, you, who are you exactly?"

Qinchuan's expression was indifferent as he spoke unhurriedly, "Don't mention just being at the Holy's Realm. Here, even if a Supreme Saint expert were to come, this young master would have no fear whatsoever."

In the past, Qinchuan had installed the Prohibition Laws of Thousand Fox Cave right here. With just a slight application of the Power of Laws, he could easily annihilate the group of people before him, let alone resist the mere might of the Holy Realm.

"Arrogant, too arrogant!"

Just as Leng Han'er was about to make another move, an unexpected change occurred. Suddenly, a loud explosion came from the direction of the altar, and a wild aura soared into the sky.

The crowd turned their heads in response.

They saw that the once calm Thousand Fox Cave suddenly erupted in radiant light, and a terrifying aura spilled out from the densely packed caverns.

A bloodthirsty intent, almost tangible, burst forth from the caverns, bringing with it an Asura-like killing intent that bore down on the Grand Elder.

"Boom—"

That immense aura instantly swept Mei Qian'er away from above the altar.

With a "pfft," Mei Qian'er spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, her complexion as pale as paper.

"Grand Elder! Grand Elder! Are you alright?" The crowd was shocked and cried out in unison, not understanding what had caused this unforeseen mishap.

The Grand Elder, Mei Qian'er, who was swept away, also felt a surge of alarm in her heart as she looked towards Qinchuan with suspicion.

Just before.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

She had heard Qinchuan's words and still harbored some disbelief. The legacy of Thousand Fox Cave had persisted for hundreds of thousands of years, and with the ancestors' prophecy, she did not believe she would suffer from an energy backlash.

But she still took precautions, choosing not to rashly elevate her mana all at once but instead proceeded with great care.

True to the mark, as soon as she strengthened her mana by a third, a terrifying force of backlash indeed emerged from Thousand Fox Cave, exactly as Qinchuan had described.

Fortunately, she was prepared and hadn't been substantially harmed by the backlash.

"Who exactly are you, and how did you know Thousand Fox Cave would have a backlash?"
