Chapter 1496: Forbidden Zone, Wumo Pass

Liu Qingchen was the Great Han Dynasty\'s fifth prince. Among the many princes, he was the most talented cultivator. He had given up on the throne for his martial pursuits, and his results had not been disappointing. He had grown rapidly, defeating numerous cultivators, reaching a point where he became unequaled among his peers. Even when compared with the youths of the entire dominion, he could still be considered a super genius.

His plan was to make Xiang Shaoyun his follower. Little did he expect that he would be the one to suffer defeat. The little scheme he had hatched for Xiang Shaoyun had backfired.

However, he did not regret what he did. There was no denying that Xiang Shaoyun was stronger than him. Moreover, Xiang Shaoyun was also incredibly talented. It might not be bad for him to become Xiang Shaoyun\'s follower.

Xiang Shaoyun had thought that Liu Qingchen had left with the others. Thus, he was surprised to see Liu Qingchen come to him to fulfill his promise.

"Fifth prince, we can cancel the bet," said Xiang Shaoyun.

Liu Qingchen was truly not weak. If it wasn\'t for the fact that Xiang Shaoyun had comprehended the Death Eyes during the battle, he would have had no choice but to use his soul clone if he didn\'t want to suffer defeat.

"I, Liu Qingchen, always keep my promise. Of course, I won\'t stop challenging you during the 100 years I\'m with you. We will cancel the agreement after my victory. How about that?" said Liu Qingchen resolutely.

Looking at Liu Qingchen\'s unyielding expression, Xiang Shaoyun knew that Liu Qingchen\'s mind was set. Thus, he nodded and said, "Sure. You\'ll be my follower from now on. May the day you defeat me really arrive."

"Yes, boss!" said Liu Qingchen, immediately changing the way he addressed Xiang Shaoyun.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, "We\'re brothers from now on."

He was naturally happy to obtain the support of someone as strong as Liu Qingchen. If they could get along well, perhaps he could even borrow the Great Han Dynasty\'s influence in the future.

Next, Xiang Shaoyun went to see Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu. He also proposed to have the Ziling Sect and Darkdevil Sect connected through teleportation formations. Mo Yue and Mo Xuwu knew what had happened between Devil Concubine and Xiang Shaoyun the night before. Since they had acknowledged Xiang Shaoyun as their son-in-law, they did not refuse the proposal. Thus, they immediately started working on the formation.

The Darkdevil Sect had their own God Realm formation grandmaster. Thus, they did not need Xiang Shaoyun to construct the formation himself. They only needed Purple Lightning Marquis to help them connect the spatial nodes.

Xiang Shaoyun was naturally happy to oblige. He took the chance to spend a few more days with Devil Concubine and only returned to the Ziling Sect with Devil Concubine after the formation was completed.

After introducing Devil Concubine to the people in the Ziling Sect and handling some sect affairs, Xiang Shaoyun set his eyes on his next target: the Wumo Pass.

About 20 years ago, the Death Magistrate had challenged Xiang Yangzhan for a battle at the Western Desert\'s forbidden zone, the Wumo Pass. Ever since then, the two had vanished from the world. Nobody knew the result of the battle, and nobody knew if the two were still alive.

Xiang Shaoyun had refrained from going to the Wumo Pass, not because he did not want to find his father\'s whereabouts but because he had been too weak to do so. It was not until recently that he believed he could safely travel to the Wumo Pass. He had his father\'s jade slip, proving that his father was still alive. And with that knowledge, he was determined to find his father.

Not only was the Wumo Pass a forbidden zone of the Western Desert, but it was also a forbidden zone for the entire dominion. Even Saints would only perish upon entering that place. As for Gods, they couldn\'t enter due to a powerful seal preventing them from entering. Many Gods had attempted to enter over the years, but not one of them had succeeded.

It was rumored that the Wumo Pass was actually the corpse of a celestial devil from the outside domain. It contained an extremely fiendish power, and countless natural treasures grew there, including god-grade herbs. Additionally, the inheritance of the outside domain\'s celestial devils could be found there as well. If anyone could leave the Wumo Pass alive, it would only mean that that person had obtained the Wumo Pass\'s inheritance.

Countless people had roamed outside the Wumo Pass over the years. It had been discovered that a terrifying race of zombies had also come into existence in the Wumo Pass. With the divine dao eyes, someone had discovered that those who had entered the Wumo Pass had all become a part of the zombie race.

Thus, there were guesses that once the seal around the Wumo Pass disappeared, the zombies in the pass would be unleashed upon the world, bringing a great calamity to humanity.

Regardless of whether the rumors were true, Xiang Shaoyun had decided to personally take a trip to the Wumo Pass. For the trip, he only brought Devouring Ghost, Despair, Bing Busi, Devil Concubine, and Liu Qingchen. Each of them was an expert among Saints. Xiang Shaoyun believed that they would take a lot of weight off his shoulders.

The Wumo Pass was located at the Western Desert\'s border near the Southern Wasteland. The so-called Wumo Pass was an ancient mountain range filled with death energy. The mountain range was mostly inhabited by some fiendish beings, such as poisonous bugs, vipers, vicious beasts, and the like.

Of course, these beings only resided in the outer fringe of the Wumo Pass. The actual forbidden zone was the Wumo Pass\'s central zone. Even the air around the Wumo Pass contained death energy that could reduce one\'s lifespan. Therefore, apart from some non-human races and those cultivating some fiendish techniques, nobody would approach the Wumo Pass.

The moment Xiang Shaoyun\'s group arrived, they sensed some odd power in the air. As they were all powerful Saints, they had naturally sensed traces of death energy in the air. They were forced to immediately utilize their Saint Realm energy to isolate themselves from the air around them.

"Truly worthy of being a forbidden zone. This is truly not a place someone can live in," remarked Xiang Shaoyun.

He couldn\'t understand why the Death Magistrate had invited his father to such a place for their battle. Perhaps the entire challenge was a giant conspiracy. Both the Death Magistrate and his father were once outstanding kings among Saints. It was unknown how the two had developed a grudge against each other. For them to select the Wumo Pass as their battleground, it was obvious they did not intend to stop until the other was dead.

"According to the rumors, the Wumo Pass is an extremely weird place. Think this through, overlord," advised Devouring Ghost.

"I have no choice," said Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh. "Search around the outer fringe and see if we can find anything."

The others nodded before dispersing. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he brought Devil Concubine with him and headed toward the central zone. As they traveled, numerous fiendish beings swarmed them. Against these attacks, Xiang Shaoyun did not need to lift a hand. Money alone was enough to deal with all the attackers.

In any case, Money was attempting to enter the Demon Saint Realm. Thus, he directly activated his tribulation when facing the fiendish beings, instantly blasting all the fiendish beings apart with a rain of lightning. After all, the power of lightning was a power of extreme yang, the nemesis of all fiends. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he used his divine dao eyes and took a look at the central zone covered with death energy.
