Nangong Yu was, after all, the granddaughter of the Grand Elder of the Fengmo Sect.
To kill her, they had to ensure it was done cleanly.
If other disciples of the Fengmo Sect didn't arrive, they could dispose of the body and erase all traces.
However, if more disciples of the Fengmo Sect arrived during that time, they would have to keep Nangong Yu alive for now.
Killing some ordinary disciples of the Fengmo Sect would still leave room for maneuvering.
But if the news of Nangong Yu's death spread, it would inevitably trigger a war between Hantian City and the Fengmo Sect.
Although her parents were very powerful, the Fengmo Sect's strength should not be underestimated.
Therefore, she had to approach this matter with caution.
Even though Ah Xiang's family treated her very well, Qin Han Chu still had to conceal his identity as the Chosen One.
The fewer people who knew about this, the better.
Before seeing the master of the underground palace, he absolutely could not reveal himself.
The master of this underground palace must be monitoring everyone in secret.
If Qin Han Chu exposed his identity as the Chosen One, the master would surely be scared into not showing himself.
Once the news leaked, Qin Han Chu would face pursuit from powerful individuals from the great world.
Giant Sword Slash!
Even without using his Hunyuan power, Qin Han Chu's combat power was still stronger than these people.
The terrifying power of Giant Sword Slash directly blocked two disciples of the Fengmo Sect.
Ah Xiang, meanwhile, charged at Nangong Yu with all her might.
"Kill!"
The two from the Fengmo Sect went all out, their metal and earth element powers surging towards Qin Han Chu's Giant Sword Slash.
As the three forces collided, Qin Han Chu's Giant Sword Slash still held its ground against the combined efforts of the two.
Moreover, Qin Han Chu had secretly used the Thousand Machine Ice Silk.
Under the cover of Giant Sword Slash, the Thousand Machine Ice Silk stealthily moved towards his opponents.
Although Qin Han Chu's movements were cautious, his Spiritual King realm mental strength was still very formidable.
The two soon sensed the sneak attack of the Thousand Machine Ice Silk.
Seeing that the two had detected the Thousand Machine Ice Silk, Qin Han Chu no longer held back.
Thousands of strands of Thousand Machine Ice Silk suddenly wrapped around the two.
The two quickly retreated, each employing their own methods to block Qin Han Chu's Thousand Machine Ice Silk.
Martial artists who passed the trials were all individuals with profound foundations. It would be difficult for Qin Han Chu to kill the two in a short time without using his Hunyuan power.
Although Ah Xiang was stronger than Nangong Yu, she couldn't completely overwhelm her in a short period.
For a time, the battle between the five fell into a stalemate.
Just then, another six people emerged from other passages.
These six were, naturally, also martial artists from the Fengmo Sect.
"Ah Xiang, do you think I dare not kill you?"
"As long as you two kneel and beg for mercy, I can spare you out of respect for Senior Han."
"Otherwise, today will be the day you two die!"
Seeing her reinforcements growing in number, Nangong Yu sneered triumphantly.
"Then let's go down together!" Ah Xiang flipped her hand and took out the protective talisman given to her by Han Tian.
According to Han Tian, this protective talisman could unleash a strike equivalent to that of a Spirit God realm expert.
Among everyone present, apart from a few individuals who possessed treasures capable of resisting this talisman, everyone else would die under its power.
Nangong Yu's eyes also showed apprehension.
Once Ah Xiang used this item, she would have to take out the protective talisman given to her by her grandfather to counter it.
This protective talisman was extremely precious and required immense mental effort from a Spirit God realm expert to create.
If not for protecting their descendants, these Spirit God realm martial artists would absolutely not forge such a thing.
The mental energy consumed by a single protective talisman often required several years to recover through cultivation.
Therefore, even Nangong Yu only possessed one protective talisman.
She did not want to use it unless absolutely necessary.
"I have one here too, do you want to withstand it together?" Qin Han Chu moved to Ah Xiang's side and said, taking out the protective talisman given to him by his aunt.
"One for each of you, the City Lord and his wife are really willing to go to great lengths." Nangong Yu gritted her teeth in anger. She was now hesitant to act rashly, fearing the consequences.
Ah Xiang let out a cold snort, then retreated with Qin Han Chu to a distance.
"Young Lady, do you still want to fight?" asked the man beside Nangong Yu.
Nangong Yu said coldly, "Let's seize the inheritance first, and then we'll see."
Subsequently, more than ten other people arrived here.
After these ten or so people, no one else came.
Despite the large number of people from the Fengmo Sect who had arrived, less than twenty remained now.
Rumble...
At this moment, the huge stone gate directly in front of everyone suddenly opened.
As soon as the stone gate opened a crack, everyone heard a furious roar.
Immediately after, two furry giant hands forcefully pushed open the stone gate.
What entered their sight was a golden giant ape a hundred feet tall.
"Those who can last for one quarter of an hour will pass the assessment."
The giant ape's voice was like a booming bell!
Having said that, the creature punched towards Nangong Yu and the others.
Since the people from the Fengmo Sect were clustered together, the giant ape's target was naturally them.
Seeing the giant ape's punch coming, Nangong Yu and the others quickly joined forces to resist it.
Under the giant ape's punch, Nangong Yu and the others' protective shields immediately cracked.
Although Nangong Yu and the others repaired them immediately, with the giant ape's second punch, they were all sent flying.
Even though this giant ape did not use elemental power, its physical strength alone was comparable to that of a Spirit Saint.
If it were to use elemental power, its combat strength would definitely be at the Profound King level.
Most importantly, this giant ape seemed to be a bloodline spirit beast.
Even Qin Han Chu did not have absolute certainty of victory against it.
Nangong Yu and the others knew they couldn't continue to resist head-on, so they dodged.
Just then, the giant ape's massive fist grabbed a martial artist from the Fengmo Sect.
Although this martial artist used his metal element power to protect himself, with the giant ape's force, the man's defense was crushed.
A cloud of blood mist bloomed, and the man had already been crushed by the giant ape.
"Be careful, don't let it touch you," Qin Han Chu reminded Ah Xiang in a low voice.
Ah Xiang nodded, "Don't worry, I can protect myself. You be careful."
At this moment, the giant ape finally noticed Qin Han Chu and Ah Xiang.
Its enormous fist came towards Qin Han Chu.
Qin Han Chu immediately used the Frost Mist to cover a radius of a hundred meters around him.
Ah Xiang did not stay with Qin Han Chu, because within the Frost Mist, she too would lose her direction.
The giant ape's fist fiercely struck into Qin Han Chu's mist.
The mist churned, and Qin Han Chu flew off in another direction.
"You think these trivial tricks can defeat me!"
The giant ape roared coldly and reached out to grab Qin Han Chu.
Although Qin Han Chu was fast, the giant ape's palm was simply too large.
At this moment, Qin Han Chu suddenly braked and flipped backward.
The giant ape did not expect Qin Han Chu to suddenly flip backward, and its palm brushed past Qin Han Chu.
Even Qin Han Chu used the gust of wind stirred up by the giant ape's palm to escape in another direction.
Giant Sword Slash!
While escaping, Qin Han Chu also performed Giant Sword Slash, stabbing towards the giant ape's eyes!
However, with a casual wave of its hand, the giant ape shattered the power of Giant Sword Slash.
