I Became Invincible After Sweeping The Floor For 70 Years - Chapter 401

401 A Mysterious Power

How could the ancient tree of life possibly be here?

According to Qin Chen’s train of thought, something as important as the ancient tree of life should not be placed here.

Although this place was extremely mysterious, it was more understandable that this might not be the place where the expert had found the branch of the ancient tree of life.

It was very likely that that expert had obtained it somewhere else, like in some kind of void secret realm or a small world.

!!
After all, if the ancient tree of life could be found here, it was highly possible that not only one expert would have obtained the ancient tree of life’s branch. Rather, the likelihood of other experts having taken the ancient tree of life away would be quite high.

Therefore, the expert from the blood-wyrm race told the truth and did not lie to Qin Chen and the others.

They looked around.

The big scorpion continued to explore forward in an attempt to locate the ancient tree of life.

At this moment, the blood-wyrm race expert suddenly stopped moving.

Qin Chen thought that the other party may have recalled something, but when he walked to the blood-wyrm race expert, he found that the latter was dead.

It was as if the other party hadn’t felt any pain during death. His heart had stopped beating.

“He’s dead.”

Upon hearing this, Holy Maiden Mu Xue and Yuji were also in disbelief. They were clueless as to what had happened.

To think the expert from the blood-wyrm race, who had been talking to them a moment ago, had become a corpse. They had not seen what had killed him, yet the expert from the blood-wyrm race was already dead. His life force was all gone.

When Qin Chen looked at the expert from the blood-wyrm race, he realized that the truth might not be what he had imagined. The expert must have encountered some kind of irresistible force, which was why he had died so quickly.

Could this mysterious power be the one that was protecting the ancient tree of life?

This was the first time Qin Chen had encountered such a powerful force. He could not even imagine how terrifying it was.

Although he could kill a supreme-ruler-realm expert, he couldn’t do it in such a strange way. The blood-wyrm race expert had died before anyone had noticed.

“Come back!” Following this, Qin Chen roared at the big scorpion.

However, the big scorpion seemed to have lost all reason as he frantically searched for signs of the ancient tree of life.

In his opinion, as long as he could find the ancient tree of life, it would be more powerful than anything else. After all, the ancient tree of life was a supreme treasure that even quasi-emperors might not have seen before.

The ancient tree of life contained a strong life force. It was said that there was once a Buha who comprehended Dao under the ancient tree of life and then became a quasi-emperor.

One could imagine that if they could obtain the ancient tree of life, they would definitely be able to elevate their cultivation prowess in a short time.

This was the treasure that the big scorpion wanted the most at the moment. It was even more tempting than all the treasures he had on him combined.

Hearing Qin Chen calling him, the big scorpion immediately looked at the former in puzzlement, confused as to why Qin Chen was so flustered.

Then, he saw that the expert from the blood-wyrm race had fallen to the ground.

In an instant, a sense of danger enveloped the big scorpion. Could something have happened again?

Why was the blood-wyrm race expert suddenly on the ground? Was he dead?

The big scorpion, who had experienced countless horrors in the cosmic, had already guessed that there must be some unspeakable secret and danger in this place.

Otherwise, the expert from the blood-wyrm race would not have fallen so easily. He should have encountered an irresistible force and died instantly.

With that, the big scorpion quickly flew to Qin Chen’s side and looked at the expert from the blood-wyrm race. The latter was indeed dead without a trace of life!

Right under everyone’s eyes, the expert from the blood-wyrm race had died without any resistance or abnormality.

The big scorpion was shocked and immediately became alert. He didn’t know what had caused the death of the blood-wyrm race expert. He then looked around, but there was nothing. This seemed to be just a very quiet place. There was no life, only eternal silence.

Theoretically, the place where the ancient tree of life existed should not be in such a state.

After all, it was a supreme treasure that controlled the Great Path of life. Wherever the ancient tree of life existed should definitely be filled with vitality. It was impossible for its location to become dead and silent, to the point that there was not even a single living being.

All living beings, big or small, seemed to have gone extinct in this Tranquil Land.

Looking at Qin Chen’s serious expression, the big scorpion felt a lingering fear in his heart. If he had encountered that kind of power just now, he would have died without even knowing why.

He then looked at Qin Chen and asked hurriedly, “Elder King, did you discover anything?”

Qin Chen shook his head and said, “Nothing. However, I can guess that there must be a very terrifying force in this place that can kill people in an instant. If you had been as rash just now, the blood-wyrm race expert might have been your lesson.”

After hearing this, the big scorpion felt a lingering fear in his heart. Fortunately, he had not encountered any danger.

Soon after, the four of them huddled closely together to guard against any possible danger. In their opinion, even if they did not take the initiative to search for the ancient tree of life, the moment they stepped into this place, that mysterious force would definitely find a way to destroy them.

Otherwise, why would the expert from the blood-wyrm race die?

Thinking of this, Qin Chen became very serious. He used his spiritual will to explore the surroundings.

Qin Chen’s spiritual power was extremely powerful, breaking through to the supreme-ruler realm. At the same time, Holy Maiden Mu Xue and Yuji also spread out their spiritual wills, trying to figure out what exactly had killed the expert from the blood-wyrm race.

Right before their eyes, the blood-wyrm race expert had turned into a corpse, floating in the void.

It was so eerie, and it made people feel fear.

Then, Qin Chen felt a trace of fluctuation. He looked at the body of the blood-wyrm race’s expert and saw that it was decaying quickly!

It was as if the corpse was aging rapidly, and soon, it became white-haired and withered!

All this happened in an instant!

Before Qin Chen could react, the blood-wyrm race expert’s corpse had already turned into that state.
