Chapter 670 - 602: Forbidden Weapon, Annihilation Divine Spear (2)

As she spoke, Leng Qing slowly stood up and walked off in a certain direction.

Qin An looked ahead, pondered briefly, then followed behind Leng Qing.

Their figures quickly disappeared at the end of Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak.

Crossing layer after layer of mountain paths and passing through one dense forest after another, Leng Qing finally stopped in front of an open space.

Qin An stood beside Leng Qing, took in the scene above the open space, and frowned slightly.

He saw chains stretching over from all directions above the open space.

The chains twisted and tangled together, and at their end was a light sphere flickering between bright and dim.

Although the light sphere was bound by chains, and those chains carried a suffocatingly dense poison, the inside of the light sphere contained an energy that made Qin An feel suffocated.

Qin An asked, "What is this thing, and why would it appear within Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak?"

Leng Qing clasped her hands behind her back and looked toward the light sphere.

Immediately, the terrifying toxicity on the chains erupted.

The light on the sphere visibly weakened at a speed discernible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, when the light had dimmed to the extreme, Qin An finally saw the true scene inside the light sphere.

Inside the light sphere, there turned out to be a strangely shaped, irregular piece of metal.

The metal was pitch-black throughout, yet terrifying energy flowed over its surface; one glance was enough to tell that this was no ordinary object.

"What is this thing?" Qin An frowned and asked.

Leng Qing said blandly, "A component created through Mechanical Skill."

"A component..." Qin An hadn’t finished speaking before he reacted, "You mean this thing isn’t only in Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak, that other large Forbidden Areas have it too, and they can be combined into a single thing, right?"

At the mention of Mechanical Skill and components, Qin An naturally thought of this.

After all, during this period he had been browsing miscellaneous books in the Confidential Library every moment; his store of knowledge had already become extremely vast.

So with just a bit of thought, he understood what Leng Qing meant.

Leng Qing did not conceal anything and said straightforwardly, "That’s right. Part of it is in Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak, and the other parts are in other large Forbidden Areas. These things can be assembled into an item that represents the ultimate attack. We’ve named it the Annihilation Divine Spear."

"Annihilation Divine Spear?" Qin An’s brows knit even tighter. "You forged such a terrifying weapon of attack—what is your purpose? Is it really just to destroy the Jinluan Holy Hall?"

Just now, when he and Leng Qing had talked about the Jinluan Holy Hall, Leng Qing had said these things were parts of the supreme weapon of attack, the Annihilation Divine Spear. Qin An, with a slight mental connection, linked the two together.

Leng Qing nodded and said, "This is indeed something meant to deal with the Jinluan Holy Hall. The Jinluan Holy Hall is a prison, and also a shackle. Even if the large Forbidden Areas joined forces, they still couldn’t destroy it, but we’ve been working on this plan since a very long time ago."

"Every large Forbidden Area that has a Defender has been nurturing its own component. Only after all components have been nurtured to the extreme will we assemble them into the Annihilation Divine Spear. Using the Annihilation Divine Spear’s supreme Power of Attack to destroy the Jinluan Holy Hall’s entrance and exit should be feasible."

Qin An thought for a moment and said, "If things go according to your plan, then after it’s destroyed, not only will the traitors be unable to enter or leave, even you yourselves won’t be able to. That’s good for me, but for you it’s extremely bad. Perhaps even those Forbidden Land Envoys won’t be able to enter or leave either, right?"

"The Forbidden Land Envoys can still enter and leave." Leng Qing shook her head. "This shackle, including the Jinluan Holy Hall, only targets the Defenders and traitors in the Forbidden Areas, not other people. So after we destroy it using the Annihilation Divine Spear, it actually won’t have any impact on the Forbidden Land Envoys."

"Then what is your purpose in calling me here?" Qin An said. "If you just wanted to tell me this, there was absolutely no need to summon me to trek all this way."

He felt there was probably something involving him in all this. To put it more plainly, he might also be one of the links in the chain; that was why Leng Qing had called him over from the Evil Extermination Bureau.

Leng Qing gazed at the components radiating terrifying energy and sighed. "When we first created the components of this Annihilation Divine Spear, we neglected a very important thing—whether we could actually use it."

"Later, after all the components were fully nurtured, we realized that in fact we had no one who could even pick up this Annihilation Divine Spear. The terrifying offensive power imbued in it is enough to obliterate anyone who tries to lift it."

"But you are different. You are the Savior. You might be able to."

Here, Leng Qing paused slightly before continuing.

"The most core component of the Annihilation Divine Spear is the Celestial Cloud Forbidden Land. The Celestial Cloud Forbidden Land is dominated by killing intent, and you’ve cultivated its supreme Heart Method to great depth. Combined with your various abilities and your Void Essence trait of being formless and colorless, you might be able to control this Annihilation Divine Spear."

Qin An rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

Leng Qing did not disturb him. She knew Qin An was considering the feasibility of this matter and that he would give her an answer.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, the time it takes to burn one stick of incense had gone by.

Qin An emerged from his contemplation, raised his head, and said, "This can be done, and I can do it. But you have to tell me what dangers there are, and how much chance of success we have."

Just now he’d thought it over: he was currently in the Celestial Cloud Path, being targeted by traitors from various Forbidden Areas, and above them there was even a so-called Celestial Demon Envoy.

If Leng Qing’s plan could succeed, then all threats to Qin An would vanish without a trace.

So he felt this was something worth doing.

But before doing it, Qin An needed to understand just how great the risks truly were.

If it was nine deaths for one life, or ten deaths with no life, then he might as well continue growing at his current pace, wait until he stood at the very peak of the Celestial Cloud Path, and then move to wipe out those traitor Forbidden Areas.

Leng Qing nodded. "There are definitely dangers involved. As for exactly how great, I can’t give you any guarantees. But I can guarantee one thing: once you have the Annihilation Divine Spear in hand, if you find you can’t control it, you can let go of it at any time."

"We, on the other hand, cannot let go. Every component of the Annihilation Divine Spear contains the power of various Forbidden Areas, so for you, it actually doesn’t amount to a particularly great loss."

Qin An thought about it, then nodded. "Alright, I’ll do it."

Since it didn’t amount to much of a loss, Qin An felt this was worth a try. After all, if it really worked, those traitors would no longer be able to stir up any waves.

Leng Qing let out a long breath, a relaxed look appearing on her face. "I knew you would agree. Now that you’ve accepted this, the heavy stone in my heart has finally fallen to the ground."

"By the way, when you entered the Forbidden Area this time, did you feel anything different?"

Qin An frowned. "What kind of difference?"

Leng Qing thought for a moment, then said, "I went to great lengths, before you entered the Forbidden Area, to use the most precious core of Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak to conceal your presence. This was a huge expenditure for me, so next time you enter a Forbidden Area, you must be careful."

After carefully mulling over Leng Qing’s words, Qin An suddenly thought of something.

He raised his head and said, "From what you’re saying, it sounds like those traitors are planning to make a move on me?"

Just now, Leng Qing had said she helped conceal his trail, and the only reason to hide his trail was that someone was trying to track it.

Right now, the Demon Pseudo-Gods of the Celestial Cloud Path didn’t dare offend him at all. The only ones who dared to deal with him were those traitors.

Thus, Qin An immediately associated it with that group of traitors.

Leng Qing nodded. "That’s right. They’re preparing to strike at you. If the next time you enter a Forbidden Area you don’t have someone like me hiding your aura, you’ll be facing the terrifying attacks of three Forbidden Areas."
