Divine King of Honour Chapter 1835: Asura Forest

Proceeding onward, Xu Nian carried on with his journey.

Regarding any potential retribution from the Chaoyang Sect, Xu Nian gave it little thought.

Should the Chaoyang Sect indeed come seeking conflict, he would face them then.

A mere Chaoyang Sect was hardly enough to instill fear in him.

Xu Nian traversed the skies, enveloped by a fierce, untamed gale.

These winds seemed extensions of his own limbs, responding to his slightest whim.

At moments, they coalesced into razor-sharp Wind Blades; at others, they morphed into formidable wind surges.

And sometimes, like frolicking children, they playfully swirled around Xu Nian.

A flicker of surprise registered in the eyes of the Lei Family Ancestor.

Is this young man cultivating even as he travels?

It's no wonder his cultivation progresses so rapidly; by moving through the air, he can glean insights into the laws of the Wind Attribute, merging seamlessly with the natural world – this is the swiftest path to cultivation.

"By the way, Brother Lei, I've heard whispers that in the Immortal Realm, one can reawaken memories from past lives. What impact does this have on ordinary cultivators?" Xu Nian inquired.

The Lei Family Ancestor chuckled at his question. "Truthfully, awakening past life memories isn't of great consequence. Even if you recall who you were in a previous existence, it remains merely an additional memory. Most past entanglements have concluded with the death of that former life. Of course, some carry lingering regrets, but for the most part, they endure considerable suffering."

Xu Nian gave a nod.

He could grasp that concept.

Within the Netherworld, attaining the Heavenly Immortal Realm requires an immense span of time.

For some, it takes millennia, even tens of millennia, so long that they become fully integrated into this world.

Then, after the reawakening of past life memories, how many would forsake their current identity to embrace a former one?

When the bonds are severed!

Perhaps therein lies the reason.

"Look, what is that?"

Suddenly, Qin Xue exclaimed.

Following the direction Qin Xue indicated, Xu Nian's gaze fell upon a seven-colored Demon Beast.

"Could this be the Netherworld Fragrance Deer they spoke of?" Xu Nian's expression turned to one of astonishment.

He had initially dismissed it as a mere fabrication by the Chaoyang Sect disciples, never expecting such a creature as the Netherworld Fragrance Deer to actually exist.

"It is indeed the Netherworld Fragrance Deer. Legend has it that this creature can locate incredibly valuable things within the world; wherever it appears, great fortune is sure to follow," the Lei Family Ancestor stated, his voice filled with newfound energy as he observed the deer.

"Could there be an extraordinary treasure concealed within these rivers?" Xu Nian pondered aloud, a note of surprise in his voice.

"It's highly probable. The Netherworld Fragrance Deer seldom lingers in one vicinity unless drawn by a significant fortune," Shi Shanshan's ethereal form materialized beside Xu Nian.

Xu Nian's gaze sharpened.

It appeared that something truly exceptional was present in this region.

"Hmph, could this be..." Nearby, the Lei Family Ancestor suddenly uttered a sound of shocked contemplation.

"What troubles you, Brother Lei?" Xu Nian inquired, a hint of perplexity in his tone.

"Nothing of consequence, merely recalling certain tales. It is said that the cultivation relics of an immensely powerful supreme expert lie in this vicinity; an expert who narrowly missed ascending to become an overwhelmingly dominant Daluo God," the Lei Family Ancestor explained.

"Nearly attaining Daluo God status? Does that imply he reached Great Perfection at the God level?" Xu Nian was profoundly taken aback.

Such formidable beings were undeniably possessors of supreme abilities.

"It's even more than that. Tales tell of this Deity possessing a remarkably unique skill, once using his God-level cultivation to vanquish a Daluo God," the Lei Family Ancestor continued.

Xu Nian's amazement grew even greater upon hearing this.

To slay a Daluo God with mere God-level cultivation?

It seemed this particular ability was exceptionally potent.

"I too have encountered legends of this mighty individual. It's not only Gods but even Daluo Gods within the Netherworld who are captivated by his prowess. If this Netherworld Fragrance Deer has indeed discovered the expert's cultivation site, it would undoubtedly ignite considerable commotion," Shi Shanshan added.

Xu Nian nodded in agreement.

A cultivation site belonging to such a mighty figure would undoubtedly stir the interest of countless individuals in the Netherworld.

Even he felt a strong desire to witness this fabled skill of Gods slaying Daluo Gods firsthand.

"By following its trail, we shall find out," Xu Nian declared.

All present concurred with his proposition.

The Netherworld Fragrance Deer took a few sips from the river before resuming its journey, this time heading south.

With a single bound, it covered a distance of ten thousand miles, vanishing from sight.

This phenomenal departure left Xu Nian and his companions in utter awe.

The Netherworld Fragrance Deer possesses such astonishing speed?

It was known that its cultivation level was merely at the Luoxian stage.

Yet, its movement speed rivaled that of a Nether Emperor Level expert.

Such incredible velocity was far beyond Qin Xue's ability to match.

"Come, I shall carry you!" Xu Nian enveloped Qin Xue with his Soul Power.

Then, with Qin Xue in tow, they gave chase to the Netherworld Fragrance Deer.

The deer journeyed thirty thousand miles to the south before veering east.

It eventually entered a dense, primordial forest.

"So it is here!" The Lei Family Ancestor's astonishment was evident.

Shi Shanshan reappeared, her gaze filled with deep caution.

This particular forest seemed to evoke a strong sense of unease in her.

"Could this be the Asura Forest?" Qin Xue inquired.

"Indeed, this is the Asura Forest," the Lei Family Ancestor confirmed.

Qin Xue audibly gasped, instinctively taking two steps back.

Her eyes darted towards the forest, as if witnessing something profoundly terrifying.

Xu Nian displayed surprise.

Asura Forest?

Could this place be exceptionally perilous?

"Brother Feng, you might not be aware, but this Asura Forest is among the most dangerous locales in the Netherworld. Legend has it that numerous Divine-level experts have met their end here; those who venture in have never emerged," Qin Xue explained.

Xu Nian was taken aback.

Many Divine-level experts had perished here?

Was it truly that fearsome?

"She isn't exaggerating; it is the truth. This Asura Forest is notoriously known as the Land of Death. None who enter ever exit, not even the Gods. It appears the treasure of that mighty one must be located within the Asura Forest," the Lei Family Ancestor's eyes conveyed a tinge of disappointment.

His original hope was to perhaps acquire that expert's secret techniques.

But now, it seemed an impossible feat.

"Let us depart. If the cultivator's realm is indeed situated within the Asura Forest, then there is no hope left for us," the Lei Family Ancestor declared.

Xu Nian did not immediately respond.

"Whoosh!"

At that precise moment, three figures rapidly streaked from a distance.

Two males and one female, they bypassed Xu Nian and their group entirely, hurtling directly into the Asura Forest.

As she flew into the Asura Forest, the woman cast a glance toward Xu Nian.

Xu Nian distinctly perceived the woman's formidable power.

Undeniably Divine-level.

A Divine-level woman so young, Xu Nian realized he was witnessing something for the first time.

"Are these individuals intentionally seeking death?" The Lei Family Ancestor exhibited a hint of surprise.

He clearly hadn't anticipated these three would simply charge into the Asura Forest.
