Chapter 1999: Chapter 2085: Opening the Tomb Gate, Slaying the Sovereign
The passage to this tomb had already been opened by the Heavenly People Clan. Although formations were set up in the passage, they were nothing to Chen Nan, who easily brought the two women through.
"Huh, the passage inside is completely different from the one outside. These stone gates are engraved with different runes, similar to those that appeared on the Haotian Tower after its promotion."
In Chen Nan’s eyes, a curious light flickered.
All these runes contained extremely powerful forces, at least the kind that only a Supreme King level expert could engrave.
Chen Nan was shocked but also a bit delighted. This meant he had come to the right place. This Top Supreme Tomb seemed to be real.
"This gate seems difficult to open," Su Qingqing said, frowning at the rune stone gate.
Chen Nan recalled the Supreme of Yuehua Sacred Land once said that the Top Supreme here was likely named Bai Yue’er and was intricately linked to the Four Extremes World.
Chen Nan channeled the Power of World Origin towards the stone gate, transmitting it continuously.
"Buzz, buzz..."
Waves of power rippled across the stone gate for a few breaths, then suddenly the runes on the gate transformed, and the stone gate opened with a creak.
"Fool, you are amazing. The stone gate inside this tomb, which the Heavenly People Clan couldn’t open despite their efforts, was opened by you."
"Brother, it seems you were well prepared."
Chen Nan smiled faintly, withdrawing the divine power. He had been quite tense just now because if he couldn’t open the gate, withdrawing the divine power might have backfired, posing significant danger within the tomb.
"Let’s keep moving forward. While the prohibitions here are strong, the tomb chamber is not complicated. It has a unique simplicity of heavy sword without edge, and I’ve grasped its mystery. It should be much easier to enter the main tomb chamber."
Chen Nan knew clearly that the Four Extremes World Origin Power born in him resonated with this tomb’s master, coming from the Four Extremes World, making their powers converge and thus opening the stone gate.
The three were about to continue walking deeper when suddenly Chen Nan felt warned inside.
Upon looking back, he saw an old man standing at the doorway of the recently opened stone gate in the distance, leaning on a cane.
The end of the cane touching the ground was marked with streams of eerie, blood-red color.
"I heard from the Rune King that you had some skills. I didn’t expect you to open this Top Supreme Tomb. Impressive, but after killing the Soul Locking Woman, can you pass me, Heng Mingke,?"
The old man looked decrepit, as if half of his body was already buried, yet he exuded an imposing presence like a sharp sword, making one’s heart shudder.
An intense killing aura emanated from the old man’s body, like an arrow leaving the string, ready to take someone’s life at any moment.
"Heng Mingke, the subordinates of the Rune King are truly intriguing. One dies, and another elder comes. I say, why not come all at once, it’s quite troublesome one by one."
Chen Nan chuckled, and sent divine power attacking into the void of the tomb passage.
Two figures appeared, one in front of the other. These two Heavenly People Clan Supremes didn’t show any embarrassment at being discovered by Chen Nan, but rather had playful smiles on their faces.
"Kid, your divine sense is truly strong. My brother and I are quite eager to see what secrets lie in your sea of consciousness."
They had observed in the dark how Chen Nan captured the Soul Locking Woman into his brow, and their curiosity was piqued.
"Alright, then you can come in and take a look later," Chen Nan chuckled.
He sent a divine thought to the Haotian Tower, which had just recovered its power: "Little Tower, if not for your reminder earlier, even if I’ve advanced to the Supreme Second Layer Heaven, I wouldn’t have noticed these three Super Supremes exist."
The Haotian Tower spoke seriously, "Chen Nan, these three Super Supremes are more powerful than that young girl. The Rune King really knows how to win people over. Besides the three hundred Tiger Ben Guards, he has four Super Supremes at his command."
"But as long as the Rune King doesn’t show up, we have a chance."
Suddenly, the Haotian Tower disappeared from Chen Nan’s shoulder and covered the two Super Supremes hiding in the shadows.
The two Super Supremes, at that moment, merged their Supreme Sacred Weapons, unleashing the power of Ultimate Holy Weapons in an instant.
And they started battling the small tower in the tomb passage.
Wave after wave of force rippled out, causing the tomb passage to begin collapsing.
"Chen Nan, our Heavenly People Clan has suffered enough because of the Haotian Tower, trying to use old tricks again? You think we aren’t prepared?"
Heng Mingke saw the two Super Supremes holding off the Haotian Tower, and his cane attacked directly toward Chen Nan.
Only then did Chen Nan realize it was a Supreme Holy Weapon of the finest grade, with complex runes and immense power embedded in every attack.
The Supreme Holy Weapon was even engraved with weight marks, just like a weighing scale.
"You may be prepared, but you underestimate the power of Little Tower Lord."
The Haotian Tower, initially evenly matched with the two Super Supremes, suddenly flashed a light, with runes emerging on its tower body, carrying the force of Mount Tai crushing down upon the two Super Supremes.
"Since you are unwilling to enter Little Tower Lord’s internal space, then become meat pies."
Finishing its words, the Haotian Tower pressed down with greater force, and cracking sounds erupted from the bones of the two Super Supremes.
Even the Supreme Bones couldn’t withstand the power of the Haotian Tower.
"Chen Nan, quickly finish this, use your strongest move to kill that old man. Such commotion, Heavenly People Clan experts may have already been drawn here."
The Haotian Tower reminded.
Chen Nan’s expression changed, and in an instant, the Power of World Origin and Chaotic Power surged out from within him in torrents.
He attacked the old man rushing over with the first three moves of the Chaotic Move.
"Boom boom boom!"
With each attack, Heng Mingke was sent flying dozens of yards away.
His body retreated over thirty yards before he stood firmly, and at that instant, the bluestone slab beneath his feet began to crack.
In the old man’s sleeves, a trickle of blood, like a stream, flowed down his hand as withered as chicken claws and onto his Supreme Holy Weapon.
He opened his mouth, muttering softly with a barely audible voice, "What a powerful move!"
The next moment, Heng Mingke collapsed headfirst to the ground, turning to ashes. A blood dragon roared out from Chen Nan’s Golden Phoenix Winged Spear, accompanied by a dragon’s roar from the Nine Heavens.
The cultivation of the old man was instantly devoured by this blood dragon illusion, returning to the Golden Phoenix Winged Spear in the blink of an eye.
Just then, a figure stumbled into the tomb passage.
The Nine Nether Evil Emperor bore a huge bloody handprint on his chest, with bones collapsed inward, and his face was frighteningly pale.
