Dugu Ao said indifferently, "I have no objections."
Yang Kai looked at the straw-caped old man. Since both Xiao Chen and Dugu Ao agreed to travel together, naturally, the straw-caped old man would not reject them.
"Good. I just knew that everyone would not be satisfied with this little harvest. How can an Eight Star dragon grave only have this little harvest?"
Yang Kai smiled coldly to himself as he led the way out of the burial ground. The others quickly followed.
After crossing the Burial Ground, the group of people went deeper and deeper into the vast and complicated cavern.
The further in they went, the denser the Demonic Qi became. There was only an indistinct and extremely illusory Demonic Qi in front. However, it was already visible to the naked eye.
Strands of Demonic Qi drifted in the air like snakes slithering about, looking extremely strange.
The group felt that it was somewhat strange. Yang Kai, who suggested going deeper, already felt some regret in his heart.
Aside from finding the true master of the dragon grave, he also wanted to see if he could take advantage of the chaos to kill Xiao Chen.
However, the situation now exceeded Yang Kai's control. The atmosphere was simply too strange. How could there be such dense Demonic Qi in the dragon grave?
Furthermore, this Demonic Qi was extremely pure. If there were Deep Abyss Demon Race cultivators or Demon mixed-bloods here, they would definitely like this place.
To them, this was a holy land for cultivation.
However, Xiao Chen discovered that Dugu Ao's expression was somewhat unsightly. From the very start, he had been very sensitive to Demonic Qi. The Demonic Qi that any Demon mixed-blood would like was something Dugu Ao did not seem willing to touch.
When Xiao Chen thought about how this person had not been willing to use his Blood Demon innate talent, there had to be a story behind this.
As for what the story was, Xiao Chen would not overthink it, much less ask about it.
Right now, what Xiao Chen cared about the most was what was in the depths of this dragon grave.
The path ahead was unexpectedly calm. Due to the age of the many restrictions and traps, the group easily broke them. The journey was very peaceful, without any disturbances at all.
There were many forks in the road, but there was no need to worry about choosing one. They could take whichever path had the densest Demonic Qi.
However, in the end, the group felt their hair stand on end. Even when they circulated their energies to block the dense Demonic Qi, they could not prevent it from seeping into their bodies.
Dugu Ao was fine. However, when the Demonic Qi entered the bodies of others, it was like poison. They would have to spend some time to get rid of it.
"Go!"
Yang Kai braced himself and walked forward. It was hard for him to back out now.
After passing through a passageway where the demonic energy had turned into mist, the group's eyes suddenly lit up, and their field of vision suddenly widened.
Looking at the scene before them, everyone's jaws dropped in disbelief.
In the vast open space in front of him, there was a huge black skeleton of a true dragon lying on the ground. A vast Dragon Might spread out from the dragon bones. Even from a distance, everyone could feel the pressure.
There were eight thick and heavy chains on the back of the dragon skeleton, firmly locking the black dragon skeleton down from each side.
The heavy chains, the giant remains of the Black True Dragon, and the dragon might that hadn't dissipated even after a million years.
The shock brought about by this scene was somewhat indescribable. Only those who were at the scene could feel it for themselves.
There were also eight flaming stone pillars surrounding the black dragon skeleton. Each pillar had a purple dragon skeleton tied to it.
Compared to the giant black dragon skeleton, the eight dragon skeletons tied to the flaming stone pillars were much smaller.
Even so, these eight purple dragon skeletons were much larger than the True Dragon skeleton that Xiao Chen obtained from the burial ground earlier. Furthermore, the dragon might from the purple dragon skeletons had not dissipated. It was clear which was stronger.
Be it the purple dragon skeletons on the flaming stone pillars or the giant black skeleton bound by chains, they all gave off an extraordinary aura.
"What kind of flame is this? It has been burning for a million years without extinguishing."
Even with Yang Kai's experience as a half-step Emperor Wu, he felt that his knowledge was too shallow. He did not know what kind of flame this was.
Xiao Chen frowned slightly and muttered, "This is a Heavenly Flame!"
This was indeed a Heavenly Flame. It had the same nature as the Heavenly Flame in Chu Chaoyun's eyes. However, the Heavenly Flame that Chu Chaoyun grasped did not have an Origin Flame; it was just a facade.
However, the flame on these stone pillars was released by someone who possessed the Heavenly Flame's Origin Flame. Its might was on a completely different level.
Thinking about the Heavenly Flame's Origin Flame sealed in the Divine Blood Formation in the Blue Dragon Palace, Xiao Chen suspected that the Qing Emperor had set the flames on these stone pillars.
After thinking about it, this was quite possible. The Blue Dragon Palace happened to have the Heavenly Flame's Origin Flame, and the Qing Emperor happened to have been here.
"What's going on? Why did the master of the dragon grave lock himself here? Also, why does it feel like the dragon skeletons on these stone pillars are sealed like people? "
Without a doubt, that giant black dragon skeleton was the master of this dragon grave. However, why did it lock himself here?
"Look! Doesn't the ornament at the top of the stone pillar look like a sword hilt?!"
The sharp-eyed old man in the straw-caped raincoat suddenly said.
There was a palm-sized stone pillar in the middle of every stone pillar that could be grasped with one hand.
If one did not associate it with a sword hilt, it would be hard to notice. However, once one did, the more one looked at it, the more similar it seemed.
"A Distant Ancient Divine Weapon!"
The eyes of Yang Kai, who used a sword, immediately lit up. Although Wu Ke and the straw-caped old man did not use swords, they understood the value of a Distant Ancient Divine Weapon.
A Distant Ancient Divine Weapon already rivaled an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure. They were weapons that were hard to find in the world. Possessing a Distant Ancient Divine Weapon could raise Emperor Wu's strength by at least twenty percent.
A Distant Ancient Divine Weapon would only be stronger than a Divine Weapon forged in the current era.
Dugu Ao frowned and said, "It's best not to mess around. I feel that the stone pillars are the seals. These eight dragon skeletons, as well as the huge dragon skeletons in the middle, are no longer of the Dragon Race. The Demonic Qi in their bodies is even purer than that of high-ranked Demons. "
Given Dugu Ao's status as a mixed-blood human and Demon, his words were very reliable.
Xiao Chen also felt that the Distant Ancient Divine Weapons on the stone pillars could not be touched. He advised, "Let's go back. This place is too strange. The Qing Emperor probably added the Heavenly Flame. It is possible that the original seal could no longer suppress these things, so he added the Heavenly Flame. "
The three could not decide what to do. Given their experience, they knew that what Xiao Chen and Dugu Ao said was true.
However, the allure of a Distant Ancient Divine Weapon was too great. If they missed this opportunity, they would miss it forever.
Yang Kai, who coveted this Divine Weapon the most, said, "Perhaps you are overthinking. These are just ordinary True Dragon remains, just like the other dragon graves. They are just skeletons that have been dead for millions of years."
Xiao Chen smiled coldly and said, "You really know how to comfort yourself."
Yang Kai immediately felt extremely uncomfortable after being rebuked by Xiao Chen. His eyes filled with hostility as he said sullenly, "This old man does not need you to lecture me. Even if there is a great disaster, it is not my turn to worry about it."
These words were extremely irresponsible. However, they were not wrong. Even if the sky collapsed, there would be someone taller to hold it up.
As long as Yang Kai took the Distant Ancient Divine Weapons here and quickly escaped, even if the seal broke in the future, the ones to worry would be those Primes and Sovereign Martial Emperors. If something major happened, the ones to worry would be those Primes and Sovereign Martial Emperors. It had nothing to do with him, a half-step Martial Emperor.
"Whoosh!"
Yang Kai's figure flashed, and he landed on top of a stone pillar. There was no Heavenly Flame at the top, but there were some sparks floating around.
Yang Kai carefully squatted down and stretched out his hand to grasp the sword hilt.
Seeing Yang Kai's actions, Xiao Chen's and Dugu Ao's expressions changed, and they quickly took ten steps back. A fervent look flashed in the eyes of the bald Wu Ke and the straw-caped old man, but they did not take even half a step back.
The two of them probably had designs on these Distant Ancient Divine Weapons. If the Distant Ancient Divine Weapons were pulled out, nothing would happen. The two of them would use the shortest time possible to pull out all the other Distant Ancient Divine Weapons, not leaving a single one behind.
Before everyone's eyes, Yang Kai took a deep breath, and determination flashed in his eyes. Then, he started to slowly pull out the sword.
As Yang Kai slowly pulled out the sword, bits and pieces fell off, giving off a bright light. A strong and simple might spread out. This was indeed a Distant Ancient Divine Weapon.
As a swordsman, Yang Kai could not help revealing an expression of joy at this moment. He suppressed his excitement and continued to carefully pull out the sword.
A fervent look appeared in the eyes of the bald Wu Ke and the straw-caped old man. They looked around, wanting to see if there were any strange movements from the purple dragon bones tied to the stone pillars.
There were no movements at all. Those dragon bones were like the bones of ordinary True Dragons. They did not give off any fluctuations of life or any strange sounds.
The wind was calm; everything was quiet.
The two of them heaved a sigh of relief. A crafty look flashed in their eyes as they stepped forward. Before Yang Kai could pull out the sword, they each flew to a stone pillar.
"Chi!"
Compared to Yang Kai's caution, the two of them did not care. They pulled hard and pulled out all the swords.
The two of them were only slightly slower than Yang Kai. They pulled out the Distant Ancient Divine Weapons from the stone pillars at nearly the same time. Their faces brimmed with joy.
When the two of them felt the surging energy contained in the swords, they were overjoyed.
Xiao Chen's expression remained calm; there were no fluctuations in his heart. He kept feeling that something was about to happen.
Now that it was so calm, it was definitely not normal. The Distant Ancient Divine Weapons were important items for the seal. After losing them, there would be a major change to the seal.
However, Xiao Chen felt some doubt in his heart. These dragon bones had been dead for who knows how many years. Could they still be a threat?
No matter what, it was better to be careful. Thinking of this, Xiao Chen moved his feet and retreated further.
"Hahaha! Distant Ancient Divine Weapon! It really is a Distant Ancient Divine Weapon! With this Distant Ancient Divine Weapon, why would I need to fear the Great Tribulation of wind and fire?!"
After clearing the Great Tribulation of wind and fire and advancing to Martial Emperor, the straw-caped old man's wish of hundreds of years was about to be fulfilled. He entered a berserk state, laughing maniacally.
Yang Kai glanced at Xiao Chen and Dugu Ao, who had retreated far away. He smiled and said, "There are still five Distant Ancient Divine Weapons. Are the two of you sure you don't want them? If you really don't want them, don't blame us for not leaving them for you. "
Tempted expressions flashed in Xiao Chen's and Dugu Ao's eyes. Who could resist the temptation of a Distant Ancient Divine Weapon?
