After some discussion, everyone decided not to bother with this fellow for the moment.
Just then, the ancient remnant stopped.
It transformed, turning into a burly young man.
Seeing this, Qin Han Chu and the other five showed surprise.
Was this a transformation?
Qin Han Chu had seen ancient remnants before, but never had he seen them transform.
Did they not want to transform?
Qin Han Chu felt that wasn't the reason!
The human form taken by the ancient remnant was not much different from Qin Han Chu and the others.
After all, humans from different great worlds were already slightly different.
If they didn't know they could transform, it would be very easy to be deceived.
Even with high vigilance, they might still be tricked.
Although these people were all powerful beings with Hunyuan power, in terms of individual combat strength, ancient remnants still held a slight advantage over humans.
"Ancient remnants can transform?" Hai Shu asked in surprise.
"Never heard of it. The ancient remnants here are a bit unusual," Yan Feng said.
Qin Han Chu speculated, "It's not necessarily that they're unusual. Perhaps we're just ignorant."
"Have you been to the Ruler Great World?" Han Yue asked.
Everyone shook their heads!
"In your great worlds, what is the strongest realm?" Qin Han Chu asked.
"Uh... I am the strongest," Hai Shu said awkwardly.
"Me too!" Yan Feng chimed in.
Qin Han Chu looked at the others; they all nodded in agreement.
It seemed their worlds were all at the same level.
It made sense. If they were chosen ones like those from the Sacred Hall Great World, they wouldn't be here searching for the Dragon Seeking technique.
Given the preciousness of the Dragon Seeking technique, people from the Dragon Qi Empire likely wouldn't be here either.
They probably intended to conquer the Divine Continent Great World and then gift it to the chosen ones of the Sacred Hall Great World.
While the six were communicating telepathically, the ancient remnant had already flown into the distance.
"We don't even have a map. Finding the Thunder God Wood will be difficult," Tian Lang said gravely.
"Could the ancient remnants here know where the Thunder God Wood is?"
Hearing Qin Han Chu, Han Yue said, "They probably do. Do you want to capture an ancient remnant and force them to talk?"
Qin Han Chu shook his head. "I think the Thunder God Wood is likely in the hands of an ancient remnant that excels at lightning power, or it might even be a sacred object of their clan."
The expressions of the group changed. Ya Wen said, "If that's the case, will we have to fight an entire ancient remnant tribe? I hope the Thunder God Wood is just in the hands of a single ancient remnant."
"Let's go. Let's familiarize ourselves with the environment here first."
"As long as we hide our presence and don't use martial skills, we should not be discovered."
"Of course, this is only under normal circumstances."
"If we encounter an ancient remnant with special talents, we probably won't be able to hide."
With that, Ya Wen led the group forward.
The Immortal Slaughter Realm was vast. Qin Han Chu and the others flew for over an hour without encountering any other martial artists.
During this time, they did encounter a few ancient remnants.
All these ancient remnants were at the Xuan Shen realm.
There were no young ancient remnants.
These guys were likely sealed here, not natives of this place.
Rumble...
That day, thunderous sounds echoed from a hundred miles away.
Following that, dark clouds gathered, and a torrential rain began to fall.
"This thunderstorm doesn't seem natural," Han Yue remarked.
"Let's go and see."
The six, hidden by illusionary techniques, quickly approached the area of the thunderstorm.
From a distance, Qin Han Chu and the other five saw an ancient remnant emanating lightning.
This ancient remnant resembled a toad but had spiky protrusions all over its body that emitted lightning.
As for its name, Qin Han Chu and the others had no idea.
Compared to true great world martial artists, the six of them were like country bumpkins.
The six didn't even know the different species of ancient remnants.
At that moment, the ancient remnant's eyes suddenly turned towards Qin Han Chu and the others.
Qin Han Chu and the other five had a premonition that they had been discovered.
Indeed, in the next instant, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, heading towards them.
Ya Wen extended her hand, and a long bow appeared. As she drew the bow, a long sword formed from Hunyuan power shot out.
Boom...
The two forces collided. Ya Wen's arrow was directly shattered.
Of course, the lightning also dissipated.
Since Ya Wen had made a move, the invisible illusionary technique had also lost its effect.
Qin Han Chu and the other five appeared before the ancient remnant.
"Another group of humans come to die!"
"Are you also here for the Thunder God Wood?"
The ancient remnant's eyes showed disdain. It transformed again, becoming an ugly man.
"Forgive my presumption, but where is the Thunder God Wood?" Qin Han Chu asked with a smile.
Qin Han Chu's question left Tian Lang and the other five speechless.
They doubted the ancient remnant would answer such a question.
But to their surprise, the ancient remnant chuckled and said, "Keep flying straight ahead, and you'll see it after passing through the Poison Rain Forest."
Qin Han Chu was also stunned. He had only asked casually, and this fellow had actually answered?
But he didn't know if it was telling the truth.
"Thank you for the direction. Shall we fight, or go our separate ways?" Qin Han Chu continued.
The ancient remnant smiled and said, "That depends on you. After all, you have the advantage. If you're willing to let me go, I naturally wouldn't want to fight you."
"How about we sit down and chat for a while?"
Seeing that the fellow was so talkative, Qin Han Chu wanted to glean some information from it.
Of course, this fellow wouldn't tell the whole truth.
But there should be some truth mixed in with the lies, which Qin Han Chu and the others would have to discern.
"Ask whatever you want. I will tell you everything without reservation."
"You're not going to leave alive anyway, so any secrets I tell you will ultimately stay here."
The ancient remnant said calmly.
Han Yue asked solemnly, "You speak so decisively. Does that mean none of us can leave?"
"For tens of thousands of years, every thousand years, a wave of people is sent in to snatch the Thunder God Wood."
"But to this day, the Thunder God Wood still floats in the Thunder Immortal Palace."
"As for everyone who has come, they have all left their lives behind."
"From the moment you stepped into this place, you were destined to become the wandering souls here."
Hearing these words, the expressions of Hai Shu and the others changed.
If this fellow wasn't just trying to scare them, their situation would be extremely perilous.
"Are you thinking of finding a place to hide and waiting to be sent out?"
"Don't even think about it. There's only one way to get out."
"That way is to obtain the Thunder God Wood and take control of the Thunder Immortal Palace."
"Even if you have an incredible opportunity and take control of the Thunder Immortal Palace."
"Once you leave here, the strong individuals outside will be waiting to seize it from you."
"You will still die!"
"You are all now like standing in a desperate situation, with no path forward and no way back."
