Returning To The Cultivation World Through A Game Chapter 173
Advertisement
Qin Tian quickly carried the crystal out of the place.
The light emitted by the crystal swept away all the dark clouds in the abyss that was the entrance to that place.
The power of the emperor pill he swallowed was also starting to run out when he arrived at that abyss.
But he couldn't heave a sigh of relief. Beyond that abyss, there was even more danger waiting for him.
Rumble...
He had just come out of the abyss and an enormous hand suddenly descended towards him.
It destroys space wherever it passes. Even before the hand reached him, he was already finding it difficult to move. If no one else saved him, there was no doubt that he would die under the power of that hand.
In fact, there were already dozens of people who exploded into a mist of blood the moment the hand descended.
"You want to die!" Sky_Butterfly's shout then echoed in the distant sky.
After that, a light blue leaf then appeared from where the sound came from. The leaf was small like a normal leaf, but the light it emitted illuminated the dark heavenly sky.
It flew swiftly towards the hand.
As if it pierced through space and time, it appeared beside that hand in the blink of an eye.
It then slashed at that hand.
Xiu...
Like light cutting through the darkness, the hand was instantly cut in half, and it spurted out so much black blood that the sky above the abyss became like a sea of blackness.
Every drop of blood that fell instantly shattered a mountain.
Even Qin Tian and the others had to take cover behind the crystal to avoid the black blood that had fallen towards them.
"Ahhhh…" A scream of pain resounded in the sky after that.

After that, Qin Tian saw an old man with a sinister face appear in the sky.
One of the old man's hands disappeared and he stared at the direction where the flower had appeared with a frightened expression.
Sky_Butterfly was now fighting with many ancient gods and that included the dark god, but he could still send an attack that cut off his hand.
Such a huge difference in strength made him question whether he really was an ancient god.
Shua...
Right after that, Sky_Butterfly suddenly appeared beside Qin Tian.
Her body emitted a white light but it had already dimmed. In addition, there were several wounds on her body. She also looked exhausted.
Fighting so many ancient gods single-handedly had clearly brought her into a corner.
Shua... Shua... Shua...
The dark god and other ancient gods then appeared in front of them. Three of them caught Qin Tian's attention because they didn't look like ancient gods from the dark heavens. The aura they emitted was also extremely strong, they might only be slightly weaker than the dark god.
They all still looked young and they wore clean gold robes. On their foreheads, Qin Tian saw a golden colored lotus symbol like a rising sun.
Those lotus symbols gave Qin Tian a strange feeling.
Qin Tian guessed something but he finally chose not to ask Luna.
In fact, they might not be the only members of the Ji clan who came to the dark heaven.
Far beyond the sky, Qin Tian faintly sensed an extremely powerful aura was hiding. Two of them were even stronger than those three.
On top of that, he also felt as if the dark heaven was currently being covered by something that didn't allow anyone to get out of it.
After Sky_Butterfly appeared, she reached out towards the crystal.

The crystal couldn't be inserted into the storage ring and Qin Tian's Dao world couldn't withstand the crystal's power either, but the moment Sky_Butterfly touched it, it instantly disappeared from there.
Sky_Butterfly heaved a sigh of relief after that.
But the dark god and the others didn't panic when they saw Sky_Butterfly take the crystal.
The dark god then said; "Sky_Butterfly, you can't run away from here, why are you keeping that thing?"
Seen from any angle, it was clear that Sky_Butterfly was currently at a very disadvantageous position.
But the woman didn't look panicked, in fact, she even smiled a little.
Whooss...
She then waved her hand towards Qin Tian and the others.
In an instant, they disappeared from there and they then appeared within an independent world. It was different from the previous independent world, and now they could all see the outside world as well. Sky_Butterfly probably did that on purpose so they could see what she was doing next.
"What would you do?" One of the ancient gods of the Ji clan then asked with narrowed eyes.
The others also showed suspicious expressions. Sky_Butterfly's calmness suggests that she might still have something she can rely on against them all.
"You will soon see the fifth miracle in the sixteen heavens." Sky_Butterfly replied in a relaxed tone.
"Fifth miracle?" Everyone who heard her words was immediately stunned.
Xiu... Xiu... Xiu...
After that, they saw nine divine symbols jump out of Sky_Butterfly's body. Eight of the nine divine symbols had already been unlocked so people sighed in amazement.
There were only four people who had managed to unlock the nine divine symbols before they became emperors, so unlocking the eight divine symbols could be said to be the highest achievement in the sixteen heavens. Those who managed to do that while they were still Paragons, almost all of them managed to become emperors, and they were the strongest emperors under the three strongest emperors.
Among those ancient gods, even the dark god might only unlock the seven divine symbols. The reason why he was so strong was because his accumulated cultivation was already too high.
But what Sky_Butterfly said earlier still made people curious.
As they were thinking, something suddenly happened to her last divine symbol, and it made the eyes of everyone who saw it widen.
A small hole suddenly appeared in the center of the divine symbol and it continued to enlarge little by little.
"You?" Every ancient god who looked at her didn't know how to react.
Sky_Butterfly was still smiling and she responded to them casually. "In fact, I have long since unlocked the ninth divine symbol." "However, because my cultivation is already too high, the energy required to completely unlock it is truly too great." "It is very difficult to find cultivation resources that can help me."
"But now."
Whooss...
Crystal light then flowed out from within her body, and they flew towards the hole on the divine symbol.
"Twilight Crystal, it is the supreme treasure of one of the ancient clans in the sixteen heavens." "It is said that it can emit a light that can burn all sources of darkness." "Although it is not one of the twelve heavenly treasures, its level is definitely not far from it." "It may be in a broken state right now, but the spiritual energy it stores is enough to help me unlock my ninth divine symbol."
