Return of the Ancient Gods

"Do you dare to fight?" Tai Shujian asked loudly.

"Fight!" Chu Nan answered without thinking, and then rushed out like an arrow.

Since neither side could stop them, they just let them make a scene. This war was inevitable anyway.

The two men took big strides forward, walking on the waves at an incredibly fast speed. In the blink of an eye, they were in front of each other. As their fists and feet collided, the water rippled and the waves surged.

"Aurora, come out!" Tai Shujian summoned his own magic weapon, and a long sword shining with silver light split the sea water and rushed towards Chu Nan without mercy.

Chu Nan was not willing to be outdone. He shook his arm and the God-Slaying Spear appeared in his hand. He grasped the handle of the spear and charged straight towards the opponent.

The two fought for several rounds, but there was no winner, and it ended in a draw. The surrounding sea water was blown up, and splashes of water dozens of feet high continued to burst out on both sides of the two people.

The realm strength of Chu Nan and the other person was not the strongest in the team, but their fight was the most intense and very eye-catching. Many people were deeply shocked and even forgot that they were fighting with the enemy.

Even the gods on the battlefield in the sky couldn't help but pay special attention to the battle below.

"It doesn't matter. You have a solid foundation. You can compete with me to this extent with your cultivation of the first level of the True God Realm. You are a talent. But how long can you persist?" Tai Shujian not only tightly grasped the sword in his hand, but also tried his best in the previous battle but still couldn't defeat Chu Nan. He even had a tendency to be suppressed. This made him feel more stressed.

"The power of the True God Realm lies in the ability to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth and use them for one's own benefit. Let me see how you can make up for this gap. Nine-fold Blue Waves!"

With Chu Nan and the other man temporarily stopping the fight, the sea area had finally returned to calm, but unexpectedly it was now disturbed again by Tai Shujian.

The Aurora Sword was extended into the sea water, and as Tai Shujian made a move with his hand, the sea water rolled up like a quilt. There seemed to be something in the azure blue sea water, flashing and dazzling, making people unable to open their eyes.

The sea water gathered towards Taishu Jian, gathering strength to attack Chu Nan. Even Nan Chu's ships were pushed away by the impact.

"Prince, be careful. That guy is practicing the power of the laws of water and light. With the geographical advantage, the power he unleashes will be even stronger than usual?" The deputy general warned loudly. So far, Chu Nan's performance has been very impressive, but he is afraid that he will become arrogant and underestimate the opponent's strength.

Chu Nan stood calmly on the water, his body swaying back and forth with the surge of the sea water below. He stretched out one hand as if to grab something, but there was no movement for a long time, as if he was helpless against Tai Shu Jian's killing move.

In an instant, Taishu Sword was ready and began to show its fierceness. The waves were like a huge mouth that wanted to swallow Chu Nan without mercy.

At this moment, Chu Nan's palm reacted. A cluster of flames emerged and quickly grew into a huge fireball, which was about to engulf him and everything nearby, like a new sun rising from the sea.

Chu Nan held up the fireball with one hand, and a large amount of flame power was released to evaporate the surrounding sea water. A cloud of water vapor was filled with a force that seemed to burn the mountains and boil the sea.

In the forbidden land of the gods, the divine fire that Chu Nan could unleash was only half the size of a palm. After coming out, there was no limit. Although his realm did not improve, the power he unleashed was indeed terrifying. He had estimated it, but the reality was still far beyond his imagination.

"Water controls fire. What can your little spark of fire mean in front of this vast ocean?" Seeing the huge fireball sacrificed by Chu Nan and feeling the terrifying aura emanating from it, Tai Shujian's face looked bad. However, the moment of life and death did not allow him to have any hesitation. He roared and rushed forward with all his might.

The two sides collided at high speed, dazzling lights intersected, divine power surged, and the storm swept around, capsizing the ships on both sides.

The waves pressed down, and under Tai Shu Jian's control, the sea water seemed to come alive, like water snakes entwined around Chu Nan's body, trying to extinguish the fire he created, but Chu Nan broke free with force, and used the Phoenix Divine Fire to completely annihilate the divine power bestowed by the other party, and faced the waves to kill Tai Shu Jian himself.

In the battle between water and fire, Chu Nan was ultimately victorious. His flames evaporated all of the opponent's sea water. When the opponent's divine power was exhausted and he was at a loss, he used the God-Slaying Spear to split open the last layer of wave defense. Tai Shujian was shot in the heart and died on the spot.

Chu Nan's energy consumption was also huge. Fortunately, he managed to hold on until the end of the battle and floated on the sea, but he faced another challenge. The powerful god-level warriors of Sky Beiyan reacted and launched a fatal attack on Chu Nan:

"You are Chu Nan, the son of the Demon King! I never thought you would actually walk out of the Death Canyon alive. You must not be allowed to stay. For the lives of the 20 soldiers who died unjustly in Beiyan, and for the future of Beiyan, die!"

Even if he was seriously injured, even if his strength was almost exhausted, even if Xu Lao and others were chasing him with all their might, the powerful gods of Beiyan would risk their lives to kill Chu Nan, and his current strength was more than enough.

"How dare you, old bastard!" Old Xu roared. He was a beat slower when he realized something was wrong, and there was still some distance to go when he chased with all his strength.

boom!

Chu Nan sensed the hostility and looked up at the sky, but he was not too afraid and was knocked into the sea in an instant.

“Prince…” Seeing Chu Nan like this, Old Xu and others felt heartbroken. They tried their best to kill the powerful Heavenly God Realm warriors of Beiyan, and took the opportunity to deal with Beiyan’s army.

Everyone was discussing Chu Nan's situation. When everyone had different opinions, Chu Nan emerged from the sea in the distance, dragging Xing Tian's body in his hand:

At the critical moment, Chu Nan sacrificed Xing Tian's body. Thanks to him, he saved his life, but he was also seriously injured.

Seeing that Chu Nan was safe and sound, Old Xu and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, let's stop here. Next, I will go find my mother's whereabouts by myself. I'll trouble Old Xu to lead the army back..." It is inconvenient to go deep into the land of Northern Yan with a large army, so Chu Nan decided to go forward alone. By the way, he rewarded the army with fine wine soaked in the source of heaven and earth in a space ring to help the army quickly improve its strength.

"..." After some consideration, Mr. Xu and others decided to follow Chu Nan's instructions. After giving a few words of advice, they turned around and left.

……

Chu Nan continued to track down the suspect, but he found no clues when he came to an empty place. When he was extremely anxious, the little phoenix came out!

Looking around in the void, I finally found a special place:

"There, I can clearly feel a special energy fluctuation, but it is very weak."

Chu Nan acted without any hesitation, and the two of them combined their strength to tear the void, and finally a vortex door appeared.

"What's going on?" Chu Nan asked curiously. He didn't know the situation and didn't dare to enter rashly.

"This is the Netherworld Path!" Little Phoenix confirmed after carefully identifying it. He looked at Chu Nan and patiently explained, thinking of his situation:

“Because of a shocking war, our world was torn into pieces, forming the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. However, the Ninety Earths are only a part of the world. It is only because of human activities and exploration that there are still a large number of unknown areas. These areas are even more vast than what we know, thus forming restricted areas and unknown areas.

The mysterious passage connecting the two worlds is called the Netherworld Road, and it is named so because most people who enter and explore it will die. "

"You mean, my mother was chased by the people of Beiyan and entered the Netherworld, and even entered the restricted area?" Chu Nan asked anxiously. He didn't know how dangerous the Netherworld was, but from the solemn expression of the little phoenix, it was not difficult to guess that the situation was far more serious than he imagined.

"Yes, although the Netherworld is a world-famous dangerous place, but given your mother's situation, she may be able to gain a chance of survival. This is probably the reason why she enters the Netherworld now - although the Netherworld is full of murderous intentions, the opportunities are also great." The little phoenix sighed. Through the penguin day established with Chu Nan, he learned a lot and has sorted out everything so far.

Knowing what the situation was, Chu Nan resolutely chose to step in, but was stopped by Little Phoenix:

"The Netherworld is a well-known road of killing. What can you do with a mere True God? I know you are magical and special. Even the Death Canyon can't do anything to you. But that place doesn't care about you. Everything is decided by strength. For someone at your level, forget it."

After some arguments, Xiao Fenghuang persuaded Chu Nan to go on his behalf.

"Let me go in your place. I am quite strong and need some experience to strengthen myself. Besides, your mother and I have a deep relationship, so I will not refuse. This underworld road can only be entered by one person now. If you are worried, then improve your strength as soon as possible and come back later."

After saying that, the little phoenix went straight in, and the entrance to the Netherworld closed immediately and disappeared without a trace.

Looking into the void, Chu Nan once again felt his own powerlessness. His belief in becoming stronger became stronger, and he muttered to himself:

"No matter what, I must become stronger as soon as possible. Now I should go to Liuhuazhou to meet up with Brother Dongfang."
