After a few days, Gu Fei and the Fire Emperor still hadn't come out from the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court. Back then, many people had seen them enter the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
Very soon, the news spread. Everyone was shocked. Could it be that Gu Fei and the Fire Emperor were lost inside?
It was also because of this that some true experts were very wary of the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court and didn't want to enter easily. Some people thought that there was great danger inside.
However, although the big figures were hesitating, they still drove many small figures into the Southern Heaven's Gate.
This was the sorrow of the small figures in the cultivation world, because this time, they had once again become cannon fodder for the big figures, exploring the path for the big figures.
One had to know that in these ruins from countless years ago, there were definitely all kinds of unexpected dangers. Stepping into the ancient ruins meant that they could die at any time.
No one wanted to die, but the small figures had no choice. The small figures definitely didn't dare to resist the big figures, because resisting would usually make them die faster.
Of course, to a certain extent, although the small figures were exploring the path for the big figures, they also had the chance to turn things around and become big figures. This was because the ancient ruins might be hiding heaven-defying fortunes.
This was especially true for ruins like the Ancient Heavenly Court. Perhaps in these ruins, there were cultivation methods, divine pills, divine medicines, and so on left by the predecessors. As long as they obtained these things, the small figures would have a chance to turn things around.
However, there were very few lucky people. Most people still became cannon fodder in the end. They would never be able to turn things around, and they would never be able to get rid of their status as cannon fodder.
Suddenly, several miserable screams rang out near the Southern Heaven's Gate. All the big figures gathered outside the Southern Heaven's Gate hurriedly looked in that direction.
They saw black smoke rising from that direction. A few cultivators came into contact with the black smoke and screamed as they turned into black dust that scattered on the ground.
"This …"
The cultivators in that direction immediately fled in all directions in fear. Some experts directly rushed over and used their great magic to disperse the black smoke.
After the black smoke dispersed, a left hand that hadn't completely rotted was revealed on the ground. The left hand was cut off at the wrist, and there was black smoke lingering around it. A rotten smell spread out from the left hand.
Beside the severed hand was a stone slab that had been flipped open.
The bigwigs outside the Heavenly Court ruins were shocked to see this. This severed hand that hadn't completely decayed had instantly killed several cultivators.
Could it be that this severed hand was actually chopped off by someone during a great battle?
Clearly, those people had moved away a stone slab that was pressing on this left hand. Then, the black gas rushed out and corroded those people into black dust.
Although the black Qi was dispersed by the expert, the broken arm was still a big problem. Even the expert was unwilling to touch it.
This was a black-haired, middle-aged man. He was tall and had a mighty appearance, giving off an extremely powerful feeling.
The black-haired middle-aged man was a Saint, and the aura of the Divine Path emanated from his body. Many cannon fodder looked on in fear from afar.
The black-haired middle-aged man thought for a moment before he stretched out his right hand and grabbed the severed hand on the ground. Powerful Saint Force condensed into a huge azure hand that grabbed the severed hand.
However, when the azure hand that was condensed from Saint Force grabbed the severed hand, black smoke immediately emerged from the azure hand. The black smoke even surged towards the black-haired middle-aged man through the Saint Way laws.
The black-haired middle-aged man was extremely shocked. It was the first time he had encountered something like this. The strange power that emerged from the severed hand was actually able to corrode his Saint Way laws.
"Damn it!"
The black-haired middle-aged man roared and tried to sever the Saint Way laws. However, even though he had severed the Saint Way laws, the dark power continued charging towards him.
At that moment, the severed hand actually flew up and slapped towards the black-haired middle-aged man. A wave of dark power erupted from the severed hand, causing the entire space around it to be destroyed.
The vast dark power from the severed hand obliterated all Saint Way laws, and it instantly enveloped the black-haired middle-aged man.
The black-haired middle-aged man only felt his body tighten, as if he had been grabbed by an invisible hand. His shock was no small matter.
In the next moment, a layer of black smoke surged onto his face.
"Ahh …"
The black-haired middle-aged man let out a shrill and shrill cry. His entire body seemed like a black clay figurine, and he shattered into a clump of black dust that dispersed into the air.
"What …"
Everyone was extremely shocked at the sight of this. It was truly unbelievable that an extremely powerful Saint had died just like that. Moreover, he had died completely. Both his body and soul had been destroyed.
Everyone looked at the severed hand in a different light.
However, at that moment, the severed hand fell from the sky, and the surging dark power began to retract before completely vanishing. It was as if it had never appeared in the first place.
At that moment, no one dared to approach the severed hand anymore. All of them hid far away, and the cannon fodder became even more terrified.
"Continue."
Outside the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court, an ancestor-level existence ordered. In the eyes of such existences, all living beings that entered the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court were existences akin to ants. If they died, then so be it. No one would care.
However, a Saint had just died, and this made an Emperor of the Heaven Realm very unhappy. This Emperor was a famous Emperor of the Heaven Realm, the Mystic Emperor.
The Mystic Emperor was an Emperor of a generation. His cultivation was extremely powerful, and he could compete with any Emperor in the Heaven Realm.
The Celestial Emperor's palace stopped outside the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court. It was a divine palace that was completely refined from Purple Gold Godly Iron. At the same time, it was also an extremely powerful Saint Tool.
The place where the Mystic Emperor's palace was located was filled with purple qi. There was a powerful Dao rhythm that disrupted the laws of heaven and earth. The entire void where the Mystic Emperor's palace was located seemed to have turned into another world.
Around the Mystic Emperor's palace, there was a huge teleportation formation that floated in the void. Countless followers of the Mystic Emperor stood on the teleportation formation.
This was an Emperor. He definitely had no lack of followers. There were many experts under him. The death of a Saint did not bother the Mystic Emperor at all.
It was easy to have casualties when exploring this kind of ancient ruins. When the Palace of the Moon Deities appeared, countless living beings had died. Outside the Palace of the Moon Deities, there was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Back then, those living beings rushed to the Palace of the Moon Deities one after another. They were all for the inheritance of the Moon Deities. That was a great opportunity. If they could get the inheritance of the Moon Deities and become the descendant of the Moon Deities, they could become the strongest in the world.
Who did not want to become the strongest that could make the world tremble?
No one could get the inheritance of the Moon Deities. Countless living beings had fallen, and in the end, they had fulfilled the Sovereign Evil Thought. At this time, the area around the Palace of the Moon Deities had already turned into a kingdom of death.
Some people compared the Palace of the Moon Deities to the forbidden area of the Heaven Realm. No one dared to enter it easily.
At this time, the other old ancestors of the Heaven Realm also urged the countless living beings under them to continue exploring this ancient ruins.
Many Emperors seemed to be very careful. Among the Emperors, there was a relationship of competition. Some Emperors saw that a Saint had died on the Mystic Emperor's side. They could not help but gloat and ridicule.
In the Mystic Emperor's palace, on the throne in the main hall, the Mystic Emperor's face was very ugly. The group of experts in the main hall were silent and did not dare to breathe.
"Boom."
Soon, a loud noise came. A black light rushed up from the bottom of a collapsed stone tower a hundred miles away from the Southern Heavenly Gate. Then, the black light bloomed as if it was evolving and shrouded the area with a radius of ten miles.
In the next moment, shrill cries rang out in the surroundings. Countless living beings in the region had their bodies penetrated by the black light, and their souls were obliterated. They perished just like that.
"What … What happened this time?"
All the Emperors' eyes were attracted again. At this time, countless living beings died and blood seeped into the ground. Then, a roar came from the underground palace of the stone tower.
In the next moment, a figure rushed out from the underground palace of the stone tower. It was a fierce beast that looked like a qilin, but this fierce beast had three heads.
Even the Emperors outside the Ancient Heavenly Court had never seen or heard of such a living being. Moreover, this ferocious beast was actually just a phantom formed from black gas.
There was an ancient beast sealed under the stone tower. However, after countless years, this ancient beast had already fallen. This was just an immortal evil thought of this beast.
However, this evil thought had existed for countless years. Now that it was released, the combat power that it displayed made the Emperors' hearts palpitate.
"Roar."
The strange beast formed by the black gas roared at the sky. Although there was no sound, everyone could hear an incomparably shocking roar.
This was a feeling that came from the soul.
With just a single pounce, the beast instantly traversed 50km and pushed a Saint to the ground. After that, the Saint's energy, essence, and spirit were instantly devoured by the beast.
In just a few breaths of time, a powerful Saint had been turned into a dried corpse by the beast, and his energy, essence, and spirit had been completely devoured.
This scene was truly too strange. That was a Saint, yet he'd actually died just like that. All the cultivators who'd entered the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court felt that it was very unreal.
Since when did Saints become so weak?
"Roar!"
The beast formed from black gas roared towards the sky. After it devoured the energy, the black gas around it grew denser, and the aura of death it emanated grew even stronger.
"Run!"
