Peerless God Emperor

From a certain point of view, everything here belonged to the Nine Heaven Immortal Countries.    

As a result, he had the confidence to say such domineering words. He wanted all four swords.    

Who would dare contend against him?    

"Hehe, after so many years, I'm afraid not many people still remember my name."    

A calm voice came out. The elder slowly raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yao. A friendly smile appeared on his skinny face, but that smile somehow sent a chill down everyone's spines.    

Where did this old man come from?    

Many people had the same thought in their hearts. The old man's words gave them a sense of foreboding.    

Qin Xuan couldn't help but glance at the old man. Although the old man's aura was obscure, he gave him a sense of danger. He was definitely not a simple character.    

"Who are you?" Zhu Zhao looked at the old man as he inquired, his face still as proud as ever. Even though the old man had some status, he had no need to fear this man.    

"Very few people know my real name, but many years ago, some people called me Nightmare." The old man smiled at Zhu Yao. The smile on his face was extremely kind, as if he was a harmless animal.    

"Nightmare!"    

The expressions of many in the crowd changed as a hint of fear appeared in their eyes. It was as though they had heard something terrifying. Even Zhu Yao and Xiao You couldn't help but twitch their eyelids.    

Clearly, they all knew of Nightmare's name.    

This name had once caused a huge stir in Mu City. Everyone knew this name. Hundreds of people were buried in a dream. Its methods were extremely strange, making it hard for people to guard against it.    

After they had arrived at the Mu City, Mu Jinyu had approached Nightmare in an attempt to recruit him. Unfortunately, she had been rejected by him.    

Even with Mu Jinyu's powerful background, Nightmare still dared to refuse. This showed just how strong he was, and he didn't need to rely on other people's strength.    

Knowing that this seemingly unremarkable old man was the infamous Nightmare, the expressions on the faces of everyone present, including Zhu Yao, lost their confidence.    

It was said that Nightmare was extremely strong and had already stepped into the realm of a Great Emperor. He was an expert in dreamforce and caused others to be immersed in the dreamscape he created. Even if they died, they wouldn't know how they died.    

With such a terrifying character here, if he really wanted to fight, no one would be able to stop him.    

Ying Wuming secretly told Qin Xuan about Nightmare's matter, causing Qin Xuan's heart to tremble.    

He didn't expect that there would be such an expert among them. He had kept himself hidden until the appearance of the treasure. He was an existence worthy of being called an old monster. He was really able to endure.    

"Senior, don't forget that this is the territory of the Nine Heavens Immortal Country." Zhu Yao looked directly at Nightmare as he spoke, reminding him that the Nine Heavens Immortal Country was standing behind him. However, his tone was much more relaxed than before, clearly fearful of the other party's strength.    

If he forced his opponent into a corner, he might do something crazy.    

However, upon hearing Zhu Yao's words, Nightmare remained calm and collected. He slowly said, "This isn't the territory of the Nine Heaven Immortal Country, but the Asura Hell. It's only temporarily occupied by the Nine Heaven Immortal Country."    

Back then, this area was ruled by another power. It was only because that power was destroyed by the Nine Heaven Immortal Country that this place became the territory of the Nine Heaven Immortal Country.    

For Nightmare, as long as they didn't disturb his cultivation, it didn't matter what sort of power ruled this place. After all, as long as someone at his level didn't take the initiative to seek death, no one would dare to touch him.    

Hearing Nightmare's words, Zhu Yao's expression stiffened. Could it be that Nightmare was really going to make the Mu palace his enemy?    

At this moment, Nightmare glanced at Zhu Yao again and said, "Of course, I have no intention of making an enemy out of the Mu Palace. Of these four swords, I will only take one. The other three will be divided among you."    

After Nightmare finished speaking, Zhu Yao's face finally eased up a bit. It wasn't a big deal if he only took out one sword, as he could still get three more.    

The others also didn't dare to speak. Here, no one was a match for Nightmare.    

Nightmare was leaning on a walking stick as he walked towards the stone wall. His movements were extremely slow, as if it was difficult for him to walk. If it wasn't for him revealing Nightmare's identity, no one would think that this frail old man was related to that terrifying existence.    

Nightmare's eyes swept across the four swords, and then he took out the one on the far right. He turned around and smiled to the crowd, "This old man will take his leave. You guys can continue."    

Upon seeing the smile on Nightmare's face, the faces of the crowd twitched. They wanted to say something, but they swallowed their words in the end.    

If he angered Nightmare, he might not even know how he would die in the end.    

After which, under the gazes of the crowd, Nightmare left the cavern and became the first person to retrieve the sword.    

"So powerful!" Qin Xuan looked at Nightmare's departing figure and thought to himself. Nightmare's strength was enough to intimidate everyone. No one dared to stop him no matter what he wanted to do.    

The remaining people continued to stare at the three swords on the stone wall. Their eyes revealed a trace of intense heat.    

"I want these three swords from the Mu Clan's palace." He didn't believe that there was still someone like Nightmare here.    

"How strong is Nightmare? He only took away one sword? Is Commander Zhu really going to take away all three swords?" Xiao You said as he looked at Zhu Yao. He didn't seem to be willing to give up.    

"If you have the strength of Nightmare, you should also take away a sword. If you don't, then shut up!" After Nightmare took away his sword, he was already in a bad mood. Now that Xiao You had other thoughts, he naturally wouldn't show mercy.    

Hearing Zhu Yao's words, a fierce look flashed across Xiao You's eyes. It seemed that he had no choice but to do so.    

"Attack!" Xiao You suddenly yelled out, causing many people to be stunned and unable to react.    

The instant Xiao You's voice fell, a tyrannical aura exploded forth from the bodies of the members of the Dragon Mercenaries. Their hands formed a seal as they sent runes into the air. An enormous formation appeared, emanating a terrifying killing intent.    

In the blink of an eye, destructive divine beams of light shot out from the formation with incredible speed.    

"Ahh …" After that, several miserable shrieks rang out at the same time. Divine light penetrated through their bodies and was directly split into two, without any signs of life.    

"Be careful!" Ying Wuming's body began to emit a strong aura as he warned the other mercenaries. Immediately, many of them began to activate their defenses to block the divine light from the formation.    

Qin Xuan also reacted immediately. Terrifying demonic energy raged around his body as countless demons surrounded him. However, the divine light was extremely powerful and many of the demons were directly torn apart!
