The Suihou Pearl was a Dragon Pearl. It had the characteristics of a dragon and could collect fate energy.
At this moment, Wu Ming felt the Dragon Energy in his body move. As the Suihou Pearl emitted white light, a path automatically appeared.
"Could there still be remnants of Dragon Energy in the Valley of No Return?"
Wu Ming's heart moved. He stepped on the path that appeared out of thin air and walked slowly.
"Woo woo …"
The surrounding gray fog surged, and it sounded like ghosts crying and wolves howling.
The Valley of No Return, which had not seen any traces of ghosts for a long time and was only haunted by demons and evil beings, finally welcomed another visitor.
Under the strange gaze of many Evil Spirits, a young Taoist priest with red flames on top of his head swept across. Golden green clouds gathered and formed a flood dragon. The pearl in his hand emitted a brilliance as he slowly walked forward.
The Valley of No Return was immeasurably deep. The thick fog inside was so thick that even powerful ghosts and deities could not disperse it. Moreover, there were Evil Spirits and Evil Spirits entrenched there. Hence, it became a famous dangerous place in the Underworld.
However, at this moment, a strange premonition made Wu Ming put aside the doubts and scruples in his heart and walked forward quickly.
The Yin Spirit rode the wind and was as fast as lightning. However, there was no point of reference around, so Wu Ming did not know how deep he had gone.
Suddenly, it became clear in front of him, and a huge building relic appeared.
Unknowingly, Wu Ming came back to his senses. He looked around and realized that the thick fog around him had dissipated. He was standing on an empty white marble square.
The huge jade pillars and magnificent tables had fallen to the ground. Weeds grew everywhere, and it was filled with a sense of loneliness.
"This is … a blessed land of a fallen God?"
Wu Ming quivered and suddenly made a judgment.
The square was dilapidated and had an aura of decay. However, from the rules and the remnants of the ritual vessels, the Great God who ruled over this place definitely had a lot of power.
After turning around a huge ruin, Wu Ming's pupils shrank again. He saw something incredible.
What appeared in front of him was a dilapidated sacrificial altar. Its foundation was made of Xuan Earth, and it was round at the top and square at the bottom. It had a length and width of ninety-nine feet, and its height was also ninety-nine feet. Some jade, silk, and bronze wine cups were scattered all over the ground.
"This rule is like that of a sacrificial altar …"
When Wu Ming saw this, he was extremely surprised. In ancient times, not everyone was qualified to worship the heavens, even among the gods.
"Furthermore …"
He stepped forward and picked up a bronze wine cup.
This wine goblet had a rough texture to it. It was oddly ancient in shape, yet it was slightly damaged. There was a faint ancient temperament to it. It was a rare cultural relic.
However, this was not the point. The real point was that after Wu Ming's skin touched the wine cup, the Dragon Qi on his body suddenly fluctuated.
"As expected, there's still the remnant aura of the Dragon Vein …"
Wu Ming no longer had any doubts. "This deity is a certain Dragon God? Or perhaps this blessed land was the ancestral land of a certain dynasty? Otherwise, how could the Dragon Energy be so thick? "
Huala! Huala!
Wisps of fragments slipped through the gaps of his fingers, causing Wu Ming to be startled.
Then, this crisp sound seemed to shake the entire heaven and earth. Weng weng …
The entire rooftop collapsed, and a large amount of dust rose. The corrosive power of time even destroyed the rooftop completely.
"Sigh … Even true gods can't resist the long river of history …" Leylin sighed.
Wu Ming sighed faintly. He knew that this was because too much time had passed. The entire altar's spiritual light had dissipated, and there was probably nothing left that could be used. Thus, he gave up on the idea of taking out a few more artifacts from here.
"What a pity …"
After using his Spiritual Eye again to confirm that there was no more spiritual light in the ruins, Wu Ming shook his head and continued to go deeper.
The three most dangerous places in the Underworld were the River of Drowning, the Mang Ghost Mountain, and the Valley of No Return. The Valley of No Return was the place where an ancient deity had fallen!
Furthermore, the fall of the blessed land had affected the entire Valley of No Return, and it had become a dangerous place. The resentment and dead spirits that formed there were even deities that did not dare to go near. Otherwise, it would be a blessing or a curse. Who would believe such a thing if they did not personally experience it?
"Hmm! It should still be like this … "
Wu Ming thought for a while, and his magic power surged, forming a water element talisman that formed a light screen, recording everything that had happened.
Of course, only this short scene proved that he had indeed been here, and that he was not just making things up.
If he needed proof of his mission, this would be the evidence.
"To truly frighten the surrounding evil spirits and find the correct path to come here, I'm afraid I have to be someone with Dragon Energy …"
Wu Ming looked at the serpent dragon above him. "Furthermore … it can't be too little. I'm afraid I'll need the luck of the hidden dragon …"
This alone would cut off more than 99% of the chances of becoming a deity.
"This is just an altar. If I enter again, I wonder what other opportunities I will have?"
After passing the altar and going a few miles deeper, there were collapsed pillars everywhere, and pearls and jade were scattered all over the ground. One could see how extravagant the owner had been in the past.
After going further, a dilapidated palace appeared in front of Wu Ming. It was vast, and it occupied an unknown amount of land. Although it was dilapidated, the spiritual light on it still remained, faintly churning.
"It's actually been maintained until now?"
When Wu Ming saw this, he was not shocked. Instead, he was delighted. What he was most afraid of was that this palace would be like the Temple of Heaven, washed over by the passage of time, and all things with spirituality would collapse. But now, the restriction was still there, which was a fortunate thing.
No matter how strong the restriction was in the past, it had been left until now, and after being washed by the power of time, there would not be much power left.
In front of the palace, the jade pearls were mottled, and the signboard had long decayed.
A great sorrowful aura instantly lingered in Wu Ming's heart.
"This deity no longer exists, and it's difficult to even leave behind a name. The seemingly eternal deity can't actually live forever?"
Beside the palace, the restriction had already weakened, and the place where it could no longer protect was already overgrown with weeds. Half of the stone tablet had fallen to the ground, revealing a corner of it.
Wu Ming walked forward and used his sleeves to wipe it. Although most of the front part had completely decayed, he could still vaguely see two broken words in the cloud seal script.
"Fu … This word should represent 'Fu', and the word below it seems to be 'Jun'. Put together, it should be 'Abyssal Prefect'?"
Wu Ming carefully looked at it, and he gained something, "Abyssal Prefect? That's one of the Earthly Gods. There aren't many Earthly Gods who have such extravagance … "
With a hint of anticipation in his heart, he walked to the door again.
There were nine layers to the palace. Although it looked broken, when Wu Ming stretched out his hand and pushed, a layer of weak light appeared and firmly pushed against his palm.
"It actually still has such an ability?"
This change made Wu Ming's heart skip a beat, and he became even more excited, "It seems that there should be a lot of good things stored in there …"
With a wave of his hand, the flood dragon above his head circled, and it seemed like it was about to extend its claws.
"Roar!
Roar! "At this moment, Wu Ming's expression changed first, and he looked at the Suihou Pearl in his hand.
"Hiss hiss!"
An unseen stream of air, carrying with it an ancient and wild aura, emerged from the mansion and entered the Suihou Pearl.
"It's not Dragon Energy! It seems to be the energy left behind by some kind of ancient ferocious snake … "
The Suihou Pearl only had a trace of dragon nature. Back then, the Suihou Pearl had also encountered a large snake, and it had not completely become a True Dragon, so it still had snake nature.
"Hmm, there is something in this mansion that is beneficial to the Suihou Pearl!"
A look of joy appeared on Wu Ming's face, "If I make use of this snake's breath, together with the Dragon Energy, I might be able to break through the seal from both inside and outside!"
"Moo moo!"
Suddenly, a thick layer of black gas appeared from the ground in front of the palace, and wisps of it gathered to form a large black fog. In the middle, two blood-red eyes glared at Wu Ming angrily.
A thick and long leg covered in fur, standing upright like a sword, suddenly emerged from the black fog, and pressed down with the force of Thunder.
Boom!
Dust flew everywhere, and a huge crater appeared on the white marble plaza in front of the palace.
Wu Ming retreated continuously, and looked at the monster hidden in the black gas. His spiritual eye flashed,
"This is … an evil spirit? But it has the divine light of a god, could it be a guardian god? "
A powerful god would definitely have a god under it, and even a guardian god.
Wu Ming did not expect that although the guardian god had died long ago, its remnant soul seemed to have fused with the land, and formed a monster that was similar to an evil spirit.
"Also … in this area, it was once a guardian, and it can automatically obtain the power of the seal, and expel me, an outsider, is justifiable …"
As he retreated quickly, a Talisman True Seed in Wu Ming's sea of consciousness suddenly released light.
Chi chi!
Green vines instantly surged out from the gaps between the white jade walls of the hall that were overgrown with weeds. They were covered in barbs as they pounced on the black fog like venomous snakes.
"Outsider … Daoist … Kill …"
In the black fog, the blood-red eyes were filled with madness, and there seemed to be a trace of confusion. It had long lost its intelligence, and could only rely on its guard's instincts to move.
A fiery red light instantly exploded from the black fog, and a raging flame was ignited.
Fire subdued wood! Even if it was a five-elemental spell, it had to follow this basic rule.
Almost in an instant, dozens of thick vines instantly turned into ashes.
The monster did not stop at all, and suddenly, a huge head popped out from the black fog. There were two horns on its head, and it spat out a five-colored mysterious light, covering the sky and earth.
"Five-elemental symbiosis? No! This is a five-colored divine light forbidden spell! "
Before the flame arrived, a powerful sealing and isolating force suddenly descended, causing Wu Ming to almost lose connection with the magic power in his body.
"This place is strange, and this monster …"
Wu Ming narrowed his eyes as he looked at the terrifying flames on his opponent's body that were also dozens of feet long, as well as the wisps of five-colored profound light and the black-red clouds.
"Roar, roar!"
Above his head, the golden-green Flood Dragon roared angrily, and its eyes were purple. It suddenly soared into the air and swung its tail.
Boom!
The huge Flood Dragon's tail collided with the light curtain formed by the five-colored mysterious light, and a terrifying shock wave swept out in all directions.
Swoosh!
With the impact, Wu Ming's Yin Spirit seemed to be too weak to withstand a gust of wind, and was blown away a few miles in an instant.
The ghost roared and chased to the end of the ruins, but had to stop, and let out a reluctant roar at Wu Ming's back.
