Boom Boom!
Ear-splitting explosions arose from deep inside that massive pit. It seemed like something massive was about to emerge.
That massive pit was dozens of mu wide. It was deep in the ground. The gravity inside was hundreds of times stronger than normal. Even Na Xin at the Ethereal God Realm didn't dare to enter this place.
The sixteen mountains were all based on the Myriad Weighty Stone. They were like the ends of sixteen levers. Once they sank into the ground, under the influence of the strong gravity, the extremely heavy mountains would sink into the ground, which was extremely shocking.
Amidst the terrifying thunderclaps, the sixteen mountains fell into the ground like iron and stone. Shortly after, the sixteen mountains disappeared, sinking deep into the ground.
The sixteen deep pits outside the pit were revealed. They were dark and evil as if they were hiding something marvelous.
Shi Yan, the Giants, Jester, and Li Xiao came to the massive pit in the center, their faces strange as if they were waiting for something.
After a while.
A group of majestic palaces slowly emerged from the depths of the pit!
That group of palaces was around ten mu wide. Each of them was made of the Myriad Weighty Stone. The palaces were carved with complicated patterns that were hard to distinguish. They seemed to hide something magical.
The palaces were built a long time ago. No one knew how many Juvenile Shi Yan had come here. They were covered in dust and gravel, with a strong gravitational field.
Shortly after, the entire grand palaces emerged from the deep pit, hovering above the massive pit.
The ground around the massive pit was pushed toward the center, forcefully supporting the palaces. At first glance, the massive pit disappeared, turning into some strange foundation that exposed the entire palaces.
The walls of the palaces were black and had four gates. The palaces were also square, dozens of meters high. All the gates were open, with four wide roads leading to the inside of the palaces.
Each road was magical. Just like the others, it didn't have a strong gravitational field.
The palaces were mysterious. Besides the four roads leading to the inside of the palaces, the gravitational field around them was obvious. It was several hundred times stronger than the ground. However, standing on any of the four roads, the gravitational field wouldn't affect them.
Na Xin, Shi Yan, and the others were shocked. They were baffled, looking at the palaces floating up from the ground. They didn't know how to deal with them.
"I think we can get in there and see." After a while, everything disappeared. Shi Yan waited for a while. Seeing nothing happen, he couldn't help but remind them.
Na Xin nodded continually, his eyes surprised. "Yeah, we should get in there and see."
Then, he took the lead, walking on a road leading to the city.
Shi Yan didn't want to lag behind. He chuckled, condensing his energy discreetly. He and Na Xin walked toward the city.
The group of palaces that occupied an area of ten hectares looked like a temporary imperial residence. There were hundreds of different sized houses and orderly streets. Every house was cut out of the Myriad Weighty Stone. There were all kinds of patterns on the walls, which perfectly matched the Myriad Weighty Stone and contained unknown mysteries.
Magically, the gravity inside of the palaces was normal. It was hundreds of times lower than the Weighty Stones. It was the Earth.
Shi Yan sensed for a while and found that the gravity here was exactly the same as the other life stars in the Raging Flame Star Area and the Grace Mainland. It didn't seem to be affected by the Old Orchid Star.
Quite surprised, he released his Soul Consciousness and quickly searched the entire palace. He couldn't help but shake his head. "There's no one alive."
"It's true that no one is alive," Na Xin nodded, "but there are many corpses..."
Rotting skeletons could be found in many houses on the street. Some of the skeletons seemed to belong to enormous outsiders, Demons, and Devils, while others were as small as human children.
Hundreds and thousands of corpses were scattered all over the city. Some were on the streets, and some were in houses. The skeletons were in all sorts of shapes and sizes.
Some of the skeletons were in groups of three to five on the street, and they seemed to be talking to each other. Some were in the shops along the street, and they seemed to be haggling over the price of goods.
Some of the skeletons were sitting cross-legged in a special training field, cultivating and comprehending the power Upanishads.
…
Thousands of skeletons filled every corner, as if they were all minding their own business, completely unaware of what would happen next.
The calamity seemed to come in just a blink of an eye. No one could predict that all the people in the city would be killed in just a blink of an eye.
Jester touched a skeleton and touched it with his finger. That skeleton turned into powder and vanished.
His face darkened, his face discolored. "I don't know how old this Juvenile has been. At least... at least tens of thousands of years. After tens of thousands of years, no matter how strong he is, he can't resist the corrosion of time. After his energy is drained, he's so weak."
Li Xiao and the Giants also checked, but the result was the same.
No matter it was the tall skeleton or the skinny one, once they touched it, they would scatter into powder. They were so fragile.
Perhaps some of them used to be intimidating. However, since they had been dead for tens of thousands of years, the energy in their bodies had vanished. They were so feeble that they couldn't be as strong as when they were alive.
"Thousand Fold Lotus!"
Na Xin suddenly screamed, his face excited as he dashed towards a direction.
Thump Thump Thump!
The footsteps of the Giants echoed like drumming. Each of the Giant warriors was running crazily towards Na Xin, their faces excited.
Shi Yan didn't hesitate, bringing Jester and Li Xiao with him as he walked over.
There was a massive pond in the center of the city.
The pond was pitch-black. The water looked like ink, thick and viscous. It emitted a faint aroma.
Layers of Thousand Fold Lotuses hovered above the pond. They looked similar to water lilies, but they were much bigger. Each lotus leaf was like a black crystal, extending to the outside. Each Thousand Fold Lotus had one thousand layers. From the inside to the outside, more lotus petals could be seen.
The ink in the pond was bubbling. Twenty-three Thousand Fold Lotuses were distributed evenly in every corner of the pond. They seemed to have some hidden meaning.
After they arrived, if they released their Soul Consciousness, they immediately felt their Sea of Consciousness shaking and their heads buzzing.
"Watch out! Don't release your Soul Consciousness! It's not fun if you make your Sea of Consciousness chaotic! "Na Xin hissed, asking people not to act rashly.
His shout was still a little too late …
Jester and Li Xiao sat down, their eyes dull. Their Sea of Consciousness was so chaotic. They were bewildered. Apparently, they had just used their Soul Consciousness to check.
Shi Yan smiled embarrassedly, walking to Jester and Li Xiao. He extended both of his hands, covering Jester's and Li Xiao's heads.
The second one was the strange soul energy.
A flow of extremely cold air flew out from his fingertips like a crystal silk thread, congregating in Jester's and Li Xiao's Sea of Consciousness.
Their chaotic Sea of Consciousness gradually calmed down under Shi Yan's strange soul energy.
After a while, Jester and Li Xiao had recovered. They paled, not daring to act rashly anymore. When they looked at the Thousand Fold Lotus, they were obviously frightened.
They understood that if Shi Yan hadn't helped them in time, once their Sea of Consciousness became chaotic, their souls would shatter. It was possible that they would become crazy and their consciousness would be hazy forever.
Na Xin glanced at them, frowning. "The Thousand Fold Lotus is really strange. Your realms are too low, and you're not as mysterious as Little Yan. You shouldn't act rashly."
Jester and Li Xiao forced a smile, nodding in agreement. They made up their minds that they wouldn't act rashly even if they were beaten to death.
Twenty-three Thousand Fold Lotuses were scattered in the pool. After the bubbles in the pool burst, they formed a layer of black smoke that covered the pool like a black cloth. There was a faint energy fluctuation coming from it.
Na Xin and the other Giants were excited, but they didn't dare to act rashly. They wanted to see what magical features this palace had.
The palace floated up, appearing on the Old Orchid Star. It was majestic and magnificent. The black water in the pond seemed to be able to nurture the Thousand Fold Lotus and make it grow. This place must have some magical features.
The more mysterious something was, the more dangerous it was. As they knew nothing about this place, although they were excited, they had to restrain themselves.
"Ah?" Shi Yan suddenly faced the sky, looking at the walls around. He was shaken, screaming in fright. "The walls of this city are drawing earth and heaven energy!"
Na Xin was surprised. He closed his eyes to sense. Then, his eyes brightened. "It's true. The strange patterns on the walls seem to be a complicated formation. It can draw earth and heaven energy."
"This ancient city should have an exquisite Spirit Gathering Formation that can gather earth and heaven energy. It's much more marvelous than the Spirit Gathering Formation I know," Shi Yan sighed.
After several minutes, he found that the earth and heaven energy in the city was much thicker than the one outside the Old Orchid Star.
Old Orchid Star was a level 7 life star with thick earth and heaven energy. Through the Spirit Gathering Formation in this ancient city, the energy in the city was enhanced. If warriors cultivated in this city, they could achieve twice the result with half the effort. It would be good for their realm improvement.
"What a good place!" Shi Yan grinned. "We wanted to build a city. I didn't expect that our wish would come true. Haha."
Na Xin was bewildered for a while. Then, he said, "You're really lucky. You can encounter all kinds of good things."
"This ancient city is enough for our people to live in." Shi Yan rubbed his chin, looking at the buildings in the city. He said to Na Xin, "Although the houses here aren't small, they're too shabby compared to the size of your tribe. I think... this place isn't suitable for you guys, right?"
The buildings in this ancient city weren't low, but they were divided into many levels. Races under five meters tall could live here. However, the children of the Giant Tribe were around ten meters tall. Living in this place would be stifling. Apparently, the Giant Tribe had never lived in this city before. They didn't have any special houses.
"Why don't you give this ancient city to us?" Shi Yan said with a smile.
