An Lin and the others fell headfirst into the fissure.
An extremely powerful spatial power enshrouded their bodies, and at the same time, it was imbued with explosive power that seemed to be repelling them!
This power was extremely violent, as if it were trying to tear their bodies to shreds!
Everyone immediately unleashed defensive techniques to protect themselves. Thankfully, even the weakest among them was at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage, so they were able to resist the backlash from this spatial power.
Countless amounts of energy flashed behind them. They were actually traveling through the fissure at an extremely fast speed, and they were traveling faster and faster, to the point where even their bodies were beginning to twist and contort.
Whoosh!
An Lin was struck by a rush of dizziness.
In the next instant, the sound of something shattering erupted.
He even plummeted to the ground.
Bam!
"Ow!"
An Lin was clearly lying on the ground, but another person had crashed into him from behind.
It was warm, and there were two lumps of softness on his back.
"Er, I'm sorry …"
Shangguan Yi crawled up from An Lin's back with an apologetic expression.
Bam bam bam …
There were a few more sounds of things crashing down.
Everyone fell to the ground. Both the Great Empress and the Celestial Thearch had created craters in the ground. Thankfully, there were no onlookers. Otherwise, it would be extremely embarrassing for them to return to this place.
"Where is this place?"
An Lin looked around to discover that this was an inky-black secret chamber.
The Celestial Thearch slowly made his way toward a circular spell formation before picking up a few bloodstained and tattered pieces of clothing from the ground with a thunderous expression.
Everyone was reminded of the cultivators who had been tortured to the point where they wished they were dead.
They were in so much pain that they went insane. They tore apart their own flesh and blood without even realizing it. And this was just the beginning. Now, even their bones had disappeared, and only some clothes were left. One could imagine how horrifying the torture they were going to face in the future.
"These are all uniforms of the Celestial Court enforcement team," the Celestial Thearch said in a low voice.
An Lin's expression also darkened upon hearing this.
He had a certain level of attachment to the Celestial Court enforcement team, and it could be said that they were colleagues. He was extremely enraged at the sight of what had happened to them.
The Celestial Thearch released his divine sense to scan the surroundings, but he didn't find any other clues, so he said, "Let's go out and have a look."
He opened the door to the secret room and found a spiral staircase leading up.
Boom!
The door was sent flying by An Lin's True Qi.
Heaven and earth finally appeared before everyone's eyes.
They discovered that their previous location was actually the basement of an altar.
It was now night time. The stars shone brightly and the two moons hung high in the sky.
In the middle of a circular altar, there was a strange beast skull.
The skull was like that of a dragon or a phoenix. Its face was ferocious and ruthless, and there was a row of densely packed bloody teeth in its mouth. It was still emitting an extremely dense aura of death.
Green flames flickered around the skull, making it look rather strange.
"This is the skull of a mighty figure at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage of the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool. Could it be that we're in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool right now?" The Great Empress' eyes narrowed slightly.
"No, the position of the star is wrong. Where I am …" Chen Chen was confused.
Billions of stars appeared in the Celestial Thearch's eyes. "It's the Kingdom of the Nine States!"
Everyone's expressions turned cold when they heard this.
The Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool had massacred the enforcement team of the Celestial Court in the Kingdom of the Nine States? And they had even set up a sacrificial altar … This was completely unheard of!
Did those beasts have a death wish?!
Weren't they afraid that the emperors of the Celestial Court would slaughter all of them?
The Celestial Thearch suddenly turned toward a certain direction. "There's a peculiar divine light in the southeast direction, as well as an extremely unfamiliar energy fluctuation. It doesn't seem to be from any tribe that I know of."
The Great Empress also turned toward that direction with a reminiscent expression on her face. "That's the strategic location of the Wind Plain State, the Falling Dragon Abyss. The snow maidens also fought their way to that place during their most powerful era, only to be crushed by the emperors of the Celestial Court. "
Chen Chen pulled out a disk with divine symbols inscribed all over it with a grave expression. "Heaven and earth have changed, and this is an extremely drastic change. For safety's sake, let's conceal ourselves and not reveal ourselves. We'll reveal ourselves once we've ascertained the situation."
Everyone nodded upon hearing this.
An Lin was still a little perplexed.
It had only been a hundred days, and the beast tribes of the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool had already become this arrogant?
Just what had happened during the hundred days that he had been away?
In the Wind Plain State of the Kingdom of the Nine States.
Within the Falling Dragon Abyss.
The mountain range stretched as far as the eye could see as the eyes of a boundless dragon.
At the center of the dragon's body, the green lakewater was like a dazzling dragon pearl.
A massive palace over ten thousand feet tall exuding a holy white divine light sat beside the green lakewater, emanating a divine light that illuminated a radius of over a hundred kilometers.
In front of the massive palace, there were over ten thousand buildings of different sizes, all of which formed an extremely grand and spectacular cluster of buildings.
If a passerby were to see this, they would think that this was a first-rate immortal holy land inhabited by many mysterious immortals.
An Lin, Chen Chen, and the others appeared not far away from the cluster of palaces and surveyed their surroundings.
In contrast to the intricate and majestic palaces, there were many ferocious-looking beasts inside.
There were minotaurs, horse-headed people, pig-headed people, snake-headed people, lion-headed people …
They were most likely extremely massive mutant beasts in the past, but now, they had all transformed into beastmen and were moving about in humanoid forms.
There were close to a hundred thousand beasts here, and they were all extremely powerful. There were thousands of spirit beasts, dozens of Soul Formation Stage soul beasts, and even two immortal beasts.
However, what attracted the attention of An Lin and the others were not the beastmen.
Instead, it was the living beings that the beastmen had to bow respectfully to upon encountering them. They had white hair, white skin, and golden eyes. Regardless of whether it was in terms of body shape or appearance, they were quite similar to humans.
These living beings wore white robes, and each and every one of their movements was elegant and graceful, as if they were natural-born nobles with a holy and regal aura.
They looked at the beastmen with no disdain in their eyes, but it was as if they were looking at beings of a lower level. There was only benevolence and majesty in their eyes.
There were only a few thousand of these peculiar living beings, and all of them exuded extremely unfamiliar energy fluctuations.
"What kind of living beings are these?" An Lin's eyes narrowed as he asked in a low voice.
He had never seen such a race in the Tai Chu Continent Encyclopedia of Species.
The Celestial Thearch, who had lived on the Tai Chu Continent for countless years, was also perplexed. "I'm not sure either. They don't seem … to be living beings from the Tai Chu Continent."
Right at this moment, a massive white eagle with a wingspan of over ten thousand feet descended from the sky with a golden cage on its back.
"Master Celestia, I've captured two hundred humans from the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army!"
The white eagle landed in front of an extremely massive palace before bowing its head in an extremely respectful manner.
An Lin looked into the golden cage to find two hundred cultivators from the Celestial Court enforcement department!
