Deep underground, in a broken tomb, more than ten warriors of the Martial Spirit Palace and the Heaven Temple were exhausted.
Above their heads, light beams interweaved. Countless beams of energy were striking fiercely, wreaking havoc in the space above their heads.
All the energy around was drained by those light beams. Flows of willpower that could destroy souls hovered around them, unable to disperse.
A group of warriors of the Heaven Temple and the Martial Spirit Palace was surrounding a young girl with an above-average appearance. Only her eyes were full of bright light.
Deep inside her pupils, dots of ash-gray light emerged. She squinted, observing all the changes around, as if she could sense each beam of energy.
After a long time, the girl paled. It seemed she had consumed a lot of Soul Consciousness. The light in her eyes dimmed.
"Found the direction." The girl slowly stood up, talking solemnly. "Follow me. Don't get lost."
Some Third Sky of Spirit Realm warriors were shaken as they heard him, their faces filled with joy and joy.
"Although activating the barriers this time has consumed a lot of our energy, we've stopped the others from coming here." A Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior chuckled. "I think Ye Xiong's team has no hope of reaching our destination. The barriers we've crossed are enough to kill them."
"Yeah, if Little Ling didn't go with us, even if we have a profound realm, we wouldn't know how to dissolve the barriers. We would have died," another man said with emotion.
They came from the Martial Spirit Palace and the Heaven Temple. They had accidentally triggered the barriers, which had led to many dangers along the way.
If that girl didn't have a magical martial spirit and an expert in ancient formations, they would have been killed here.
When they thought of the dangers along the way, the group of people felt a lingering fear in their hearts and were secretly afraid.
"The people of the Spirit Treasure Sect won't meet us," the girl smiled faintly. "We don't know how to break the barriers we've crossed, but it's enough to kill them. If we insist, our souls will perish, and we will never be free. We can even become a part of the formation, turning into the Yin Fiend. "
Everybody was frightened.
"Let's go. We should be careful. Listen to my order." The girl put on a stern countenance, took a deep breath, and then led the others out.
Everybody followed her closely.
…
Ye Xiong halted suddenly. He was frightened in the middle of a group of cracked tombs. He screamed continually. "Not good!"
Shi Yan, Zhu Yi, Yue Ying, and Yun Xiu hurried over.
There was only darkness in front of Ye Xiong. In that darkness, the cold wind was extremely sharp, as if countless swords were dancing.
There seemed to be a great danger lurking in the darkness. Everyone released their Spiritual Senses, but it was like a rock sinking into the ocean. They could not sense anything at all.
In that cold wind, a strong baleful aura rushed over, as if it contained an ancient vicious beast, waiting for its prey to arrive.
"It's an ominous formation!" Ye Xiong took a deep breath. "Someone has triggered all the dangerous formations along the way. It's tough now. If we want to get in, we have to force our way through."
A Ferocious Array was a very dangerous array. It contained countless horrifying transformations and could instantly turn a martial artist into ashes.
"What level of formation?" Zhu Yi frowned and asked with a dark face.
"It's enough to kill warriors of our level." Ye Xiong turned his head to look at him, his face desperate. "Seems like we have to end our trip earlier."
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu arched their bold brows, looking at the dark area in front of them. They were full of bitterness.
They had visited the Shady Firmament Old Mound, so they knew how dangerous the Ferocious Array here was. Once the formation was triggered, the perilous situation would start immediately. If they dared to intrude, they had to be prepared that their souls would perish.
Hearing the Ferocious Array in front of them, Yue Ying and Yun Xiu wanted to retreat. They were about to stop here.
"Is there no other way?" Bai Hui Quan asked timidly.
Yun Xiu glared at her, talking softly. "Unless there's a formation master who understands the Ferocious Array, or he has enough power to clear the Ferocious Array. However, in my opinion, even the peerless old monsters of our Divine Great Land can't use brute force to break these Ferocious Arrays directly. "
Her words meant that their hope was gone.
"I'm not willing!" Ye Xiong's eyes were red, his voice hoarse. "Who is it? Who has triggered the Ferocious Array! I want him to pay for it! "
"Mo Ling Er of the Martial Spirit Palace. I heard that she's good at breaking formations. Her attainment in this aspect has shocked the Martial Spirit Palace …" Yue Ying muttered.
Ye Xiong's eyes brightened as he shouted, "It's their trick! They must have brought Mo Ling Er here. That's why they dared to trigger the Ferocious Array. They want to cut off our way! "
"For a Heaven Thunder Beast, it's not worth that much effort, right?" Yun Xiu was surprised.
Ye Xiong snorted, but he didn't say anything else.
Shi Yan assessed him discreetly. He was sure that Ye Xiong didn't want only the Heaven Thunder Beast. There must be something in the Shady Firmament Old Mound that made this man keep thinking about it.
What could it be?
Shi Yan rubbed his chin, contemplating.
Ye Xiong was an Elder of the Spirit Treasure Sect. He had so many treasures. It could be said that he was a rich man. Ordinary things couldn't enter his eyes.
It was absolutely precious.
"Precursor Ye, what did you find in the Shady Firmament Old Mound?" ShiYan smiled, "We can't get in either way. Why don't you tell us about it? Consider it our reward."
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu also looked at him without blinking.
Everybody was curious. They could guess what had happened in the Shady Firmament Old Mound that made so many hotshots risk their lives like that.
"Ancient Cave Mansion," Ye Xiong pondered for a while and then slowly said three words.
Everybody was frightened.
The Ancient Cave Mansion was a cultivating cave mansion in the Antiquity Time. It must have the cultivating materials from the Antiquity Time, martial techniques, and secret treasures. It could even have divine weapons!
The seven ancient factions had a long history. However, after so many years of inheritance, they had lost many secret cultivating techniques and powerful treasures. Currently, the inheritance of the seven ancient factions wasn't complete.
However, even if it wasn't complete, the seven ancient factions were still the rulers of the Divine Great Land.
An ancient cave mansion could be a sect in the Antiquity Time. It could have the complete secret cultivating techniques and treasures. If they were excavated, it could change the structure of the Divine Great Land.
ShiYan's face was also frightened.
He thought more.
Was it the ancestral land of the Demonic Sound Clan?
According to the Demonic Sound Clan, their ancestral land was in the Shady Firmament Old Mound, where the Demonic Sound Clan's Sacred Texts, the Yin Written Charm Scripture, and the secret treasures from the Antiquity Time were kept there. The reason why Yi Tian Mo and the others wanted to follow him was that they could return to their ancestral land one day to find the inheritance of their ancestors.
"You found it?" Shi Yan was excited.
"It's that Heaven Thunder Beast. It seems to have run out of that cave mansion. I'm not sure about the others, but I can confirm one thing. The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame is there! "answered Ye Zhun.
"World Extinguishing Thunder Flame?" This time, Zhu Yi couldn't help but shout. "Old Ye, you've hidden this from me. You said that the cave mansion has the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame, the second rank heaven flame?"
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu's eyes brightened.
ShiYan's face was also frightened.
Among the nine heaven flames, the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame ranked second, one rank higher than the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame. According to rumors, the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame had been born in the Immemorial Epoch.
The Immemorial Epoch was a much longer time than the Antiquity Time. In that era, there were no humans …
Legends said that in the Immemorial Epoch, when many strong living beings were fighting against each other, they had triggered the great change of heaven and earth. Billions of thunderbolts descended from the nine heavens. Among billions of thunderbolts, a thunderbolt had its own consciousness. It absorbed the other thunderbolts and eventually became the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame. The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame could create billions of thunderbolts, which had the power to destroy the world.
The heaven flame of the Immemorial Epoch ranked second, with the power to destroy the world …
Shi Yan couldn't help but gasp for breath.
"What a pity! What a pity! Why are we so unlucky …" Zhu Yi was dispirited. His eyes were red as he gritted his teeth. "Ye Xiong, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had, I would have risked my face to invite a warrior who was good at ancient formations. Now it's too bad."
Ye Xiong didn't care about his embarrassment. He was dispirited, shaking his head continually.
He wanted to hide this secret and enjoy it alone. He didn't expect that someone would set him up. Now, he couldn't even get in.
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu were so worried. Looking at the darkness in front of them, their brains were moving fast, considering if they should risk their lives to get in.
Apparently, the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame and the Ancient Cave Mansion were much more tempting than the Heaven Thunder Beast!
"Give me the Ethereal Crystals first," Shi Yan suddenly spoke up, looking at Ye Xiong calmly.
Ye Xiong was bewildered. He said indignantly, "You haven't contributed anything this time. Why do you want the Ethereal Crystals? Don't provoke me now. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude! "
Zhu Yi, Yue Ying, and Yun Xiu also looked at Shi Yan with an odd countenance.
"You give me the Ethereal Crystals first, and I'll take you guys through those ancient barriers. Is it a good deal?" Shi Yan grinned.
Ye Xiong and the others were shaken, their faces disbelieving.
The four of them understood how dangerous the ancient barriers were. Let alone the fact that Shi Yan was only at the First Sky of Spirit Realm, even if he had reached the True God Realm, if he didn't know how to break the formation, he couldn't do anything.
What did he rely on?
"Little buddy, are you serious?" Zhu Yi's eyes were like electric beams. He took a deep breath and asked seriously.
"Very serious." Shi Yan smiled. "Don't worry. After I get the Ethereal Crystals, I'll show you how to do it. Do you still want to consider this deal?"
Ye Xiong was dumbstruck. He kept silent for a while and then asked, "How can I believe you?"
"Haha, I'm here. If I can't do it, you can take it back." Shi Yan was calm. He glared at Zhu Yi and Yue Ying. "With them as witnesses, I won't act rashly. What else do you need to worry about?"
"Old Ye, no matter if it's true or not, it's always good to let him try," said Zhu Yi hurriedly.
He knew that Shi Yan had many strange features. As Shi Yan dared to boast like that, he must have something to rely on. Although he didn't know what Shi Yan relied on, he thought he should try.
"Give us the Ethereal Crystals!" urged Yue Ying and Yun Xiu.
Lin Zhi, Luo Xiao, Bai Hui Quan, and the juniors looked at Shi Yan with surprise, their eyes like electric beams.
