Chapter 1504: Chapter 1504: The Mystic Iron Gate Opens
"Haha... just kidding, don’t be mad."
"Once I’m full, I’ll learn this Slaughter Pupil Technique as soon as possible."
Qin Yi chuckled. Everything should have its limits. If he really angered the old ghost, the White Jade Seven-leaf Lotus would be gone.
After eating and drinking, Qin Yi began to seriously cultivate the Slaughter Pupil Technique.
Qin Yi’s memory wasn’t great, but his cultivation talent far exceeded the norm. As long as he knew the mental method, he could run it quickly.
Qin Yi memorized the mental method and ran it a few times.
He couldn’t help but feel delighted, realizing that this Evil Eye could indeed be controlled.
With this Slaughter Pupil Technique, he no longer had to fear going blind from using the Eye of Righteous and Evil in the future.
Qin Yi stood up and said, "I’m ready, let’s begin."
The two of them stood before the Mystic Iron Gate and simultaneously triggered their eye lights.
In the past, every time Qin Yi used it, he needed to be filled with rage to cast the Eye of Righteous and Evil.
Moreover, each time he used it, both eyes would simultaneously emit two beams of light.
But this Slaughter Pupil Technique could control it, allowing only one eye to emit light.
Two beams of blood-red light shot out, hitting Qiongqi’s hollow eye.
The light gathered, and Qiongqi’s eye, like a lit oil lamp, began to collect light. As both eyes became similarly filled with wickedness, there was a "crack," and the Mystic Iron Gate slowly opened.
When the Mystic Iron Gate opened, Tian Xie rushed in immediately.
As Qin Yi was about to follow, a sudden dizziness hit him, and he found his mind filled with hostility.
He immediately realized that this was a side effect of the Slaughter Pupil Technique.
No wonder the old ghost taught him the Slaughter Pupil Technique so easily; it could influence his mind, increasing his hostility and filling him with violence.
Qin Yi circulated his energy several times before dispelling the hostility in his heart.
Subsequently, his figure flickered and chased inside.
Inside was a passage over thirty meters long, with oil lamps lit on the stone walls on both sides.
Without further thought, Qin Yi rushed straight in.
In doing so, he stepped into thin air. He quickly circulated his energy but found himself unable to fly.
The environment here, influenced by the Purgatory Trace, made flight impossible.
In desperation, Qin Yi reached out and grabbed hold of an iron chain as thick as an arm.
Climbing up the chain, Qin Yi then realized that the end of the passage was an abyss, connected only by an iron chain as thick as an arm to somewhere unknown.
The length of this chain was unknown, as it was enveloped in gray mist several meters away.
As Qin Yi extended his divine thought, he was surprised to find that it, which originally covered a kilometer, could only extend a few meters here.
This Purgatory Trace is truly strange and suppresses cultivation too much here.
"Crash!"
The iron chain suddenly shook.
Qin Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly, immediately understanding that Tian Xie must have gone along this chain and was still on it now.
Stepping onto the iron chain, Qin Yi almost slipped and fell, breaking out in a cold sweat.
This chain, icy and slippery, was made of Cold Iron.
This damned place doesn’t allow flying, and below is a bottomless abyss; everything must be done carefully.
If you fall accidentally, your life would be hard to predict.
Qin Yi stepped carefully on the chain, cautiously moving forward.
Several times along the way, he nearly fell, truly a perilous journey.
Through the mist a dozen meters ahead, Qin Yi finally saw the length of the chain.
About a hundred meters, it connected a place resembling an altar.
Actually, it connected to a stone pillar with a diameter of more than ten meters, stretching out from the abyss.
And on the altar, red light spread, especially dazzling in this dim environment.
The red light shone brilliantly, all converging on a weapon inserted into the ground.
When Qin Yi saw this weapon, he was stunned.
Flood Dragon Spear.
The weapon looked exactly like the Flood Dragon Spear and was entirely blood-red, as if stained with blood.
"Blood Flood Dragon, could this be your kin?"
The Blood Flood Dragon, also unable to fly here, could only cling to Qin Yi’s back.
"Master, I tried to connect just now, but there was no response, indicating that it’s not my kin."
"This spear bears no life aura, instead filled with malice. It should be just a weapon, not something transformed from a Blood Flood Dragon."
"Master, the murderous aura on this spear surpasses mine, it’s absolutely a deadly weapon. It seems Tian Xie’s reason for coming here was not for the White Jade Seven-leaf Lotus, but for this weapon."
Qin Yi nodded slightly, having expected this.
Tian Xie entered earlier than him, but here he could only advance along the chain, so Tian Xie’s speed wasn’t quick, now thirty or forty meters ahead.
However, everyone’s speed was about the same now. He couldn’t catch up with Tian Xie.
"Tian Xie, did you trick me? You came here for the White Jade Seven-leaf Lotus, but your real goal was this weapon."
Qin Yi said angrily.
Tian Xie didn’t turn around, laughing coldly, "Qin Yi, coming for the White Jade Seven-leaf Lotus is true, taking the master’s weapon is also true, and deceiving you is true as well."
"There is indeed a White Jade Seven-leaf Lotus, but only one, so you can forget about having a piece of it."
"Still, I must thank you for helping to open the Mystic Iron Gate. You, Qin Yi, who pride yourself on being wise, didn’t expect to be outsmarted, did you?"
"Once I get the master’s weapon, ingest the White Jade Seven-leaf Lotus and greatly increase my cultivation, I’ll personally send you on your way."
Qin Yi’s face turned black with anger.
Honestly, he had been wary all along, making various assumptions, but he hadn’t imagined that at the moment the door opened, Tian Xie would seize the chance to rush in first.
Moreover, here he could only walk along the iron chain, so his proud speed was useless, unable to catch up with Tian Xie, only watch as he advanced.
He absolutely couldn’t let Tian Xie get that spear.
According to him, this spear was the weapon of the Evil Lord. That alone proved its extraordinariness.
Qin Yi wanted to catch up with Tian Xie, but as he walked faster, he slipped, almost falling.
What to do?
Qin Yi’s mind raced.
The more dangerous the situation, the faster his mind worked, always finding a way in crucial moments.
Hopefully, his mind would serve him well this time.
Qin Yi’s eyes flickered, and suddenly they shone brightly, confirming that his intelligence was unmatched.
He had an idea.
With a flip of his hand, a palm-sized Earth Spirit Stone appeared, its glow flashing quickly.
Qin Yi picked up a piece and hurled it at Tian Xie’s back.
"Bang!"
Tian Xie sensed the sound of something breaking through the air behind him, but being on the chain, he couldn’t dodge.
The Earth Spirit Stone slammed hard into Tian Xie’s back.
Tian Xie let out a miserable cry, followed by a scream, as he slipped and almost fell into the abyss.
Fortunately, he reacted swiftly and grabbed the iron chain, climbing back up.
Tian Xie’s face was pale, and his back was soaked; it really scared the life out of him.
