In the depths of the ancient palace, there was a vast plaza. At the center of the plaza, there was a stone altar. On the altar, there was a tablet that towered into the clouds.
The tablet was in the shape of a rhombus and had six sides. It was black in color and looked like the stars in the universe. Just a glance at it would make one feel as if their mind was being devoured.
On the wide tablet, the six sides would occasionally flash with a sparkling light, revealing some obscure and mysterious patterns that were difficult to understand. It was especially mysterious. Imperceptibly, the tablet gave off a heart-palpitating fluctuation. It was filled with an ancient charm and vicissitudes, causing one's mind to shiver.
This might be the place where the great power offered sacrifices to the heavens. It could be seen from the layout of the surroundings. Therefore, even after thousands of years, this place still existed and had not been destroyed by time.
At this moment, there were hundreds of Yin spirits gathered in this large plaza. Among them, the most eye-catching one was the giant Yin spirit below the altar. Its entire body flowed with a cold and gloomy luster, as if it was wearing a Yin armor. Its body was almost three meters tall, and it looked like a god of death.
This Yin spirit was much taller than ordinary Yin spirits. It had almost condensed into a human form, and its body looked solid. Unlike the other Yin spirits around it, although they also showed signs of solidifying, their bodies were still in the form of mist. They looked like the ghosts of the legends.
Judging from its position, this tall Yin spirit was extraordinary. It was definitely one of the strongest Yin spirits. If it were to erupt, it would definitely be extremely shocking.
Around these Yin spirits, there were many ancient remains. The bones were old and dim, but they still stood in this plaza. The number of them was actually equal to the number of Yin spirits in the plaza.
Obviously, these people must be the guards of this great force that had been guarding this altar.
It was hard to imagine how terrifying the cultivation of the people who guarded this place must have been in the Mythological Era. It was no wonder that after so many years, even though they had decayed, the Yin spirits that were born from Yin Qi were still extraordinary. Even the weakest one was stronger than the one that Feng Hao encountered in the stone room.
At this moment, there were many bloodstains on the ground in the square. Broken limbs could be seen everywhere. It looked as if they were directly torn apart. It was no longer possible to distinguish their appearance. It was just a pile of minced meat.
Evidently, even though these guards had passed away, their wills were still left behind on the Yin Spirits, guarding the altar. Anyone who dared to approach them would be mercilessly torn apart and destroyed.
…
In the distance, there were already dozens of people gathered. They were hiding in the corner, not daring to enter the range of the square.
Evidently, those who were impulsive had already died on the spot. At the same time, what happened back then had shocked them. Hence, they chose to temporarily hide and observe.
At this moment, their gazes were all focused on the altar in the middle of the square, at the extremely shocking monument. Their eyes flickered with all kinds of lights. Without exception, all of them wanted to obtain this monument.
That was because there was an extremely dazzling pillar of light shooting out from the top of the monument, directly piercing into the sky. It was highly likely that this was the main reason why the Longevity Domain was in such a state.
Hence, they dared to conclude that the secret of longevity was hidden in this monument.
In this period of time, there were many people who came here. However, those who barged into the vicinity of the square were already a pile of minced meat.
Hence, these people who came later chose to stop after smelling the thick stench of blood in the square. They could only stare at the towering monument from afar and sigh helplessly.
Up until now, not a single one of the dozens of people who came to the monument could see through it. They could not understand the profoundness of the patterns on the monument.
The divine treasure was right in front of them, but they could not do anything about it. It was a very uncomfortable feeling, and it made them feel so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood. However, they also knew that it was useless even if they were impulsive. It was better for them to calm down and think of a countermeasure to kill these Yin spirits.
However, the current situation was different. They could still choose to temporarily ally with each other while they were on the basin, but they couldn't do so here. Because victory or defeat would be decided in an instant, and none of them wanted an outsider to charge in and obtain the divine treasure within the monument.
Hence, the camps were also very clear about this. In fact, they were even observing each other. If someone chose to barge into the square, what they had to do was not to help, but to hinder them.
It was precisely because they understood this that no one took the risk to barge in. Sometimes, humans were more fatal than Yin spirits.
Who dared to say that the dismembered corpses on the square were killed by the claws of the Yin spirits.
Not long after, a graceful figure and an old man with a ruddy complexion arrived at the edge of the square.
It was Huangfu Wushuang and the mysterious old man who was proficient in formation runes.
At this moment, Huangfu Wushuang's beautiful face was completely devoid of blood. She was pale like a sheet of paper, and she seemed to be in a rather sickly state. Moreover, there was even a trace of indifference and coldness in her beautiful eyes. Along with her arrival, the temperature in the surroundings dropped rapidly, and it caused everyone in the surroundings to look at her with shock.
With their intuition, they could naturally determine that something must have happened, or that someone had attacked Huangfu Wushuang.
It wasn't impossible.
Thus, when the two of them arrived, the surrounding people were afraid that they would offend them and get into trouble. Thus, they all chose to avoid them.
However, Huangfu Wushuang did not pay any attention to this. She was clearly indifferent to the surroundings. Her eyes were completely focused on the monument on the altar at the center of the square.
A moment later, she turned her head and looked at the ruddy old man. The old man slightly nodded his head, and Huangfu Wushuang ignored everyone in the surroundings and actually walked towards the altar.
At the same time, her figure became somewhat ethereal, as if she was a wisp of wind. She nimbly dodged the attacks of those yin spirits, turned into a drifting afterimage, and instantly charged towards the altar.
