"Just who are these heroic spirits?"
Staring at the disappearing souls, Ling Xian frowned in confusion.
Not everyone could turn into a Heroic Spirit. Only those whose Fighting Souls were not extinguished and their obsessions could turn into a Heroic Spirit.
"They are probably soldiers from the army." The elder squinted.
"Soldiers?"
Ling Xian was a little startled, "Yes, their armors and weapons are the same. Their techniques are the same as well."
"That's right. Plus their undying fighting spirit, we can conclude that they are from the army." The elder nodded.
"Whose army is it? Alchemy's subordinates … "Ling Xian frowned and became more suspicious.
"God knows."
The elder squinted, "Okay, this has nothing to do with us. Our goal is to get the inheritance."
"The legacy of the Pill Ancestor isn't something that can be obtained so easily."
Ling Xian softly sighed, "What happens next will only get more and more dangerous."
"Are you afraid?" The elder grinned.
"Even if I'm afraid, I have no other choice but to continue."
Ling Xian said softly, "Let's go."
Then, he marched forward in giant steps with his head held high.
The elder did the same.
After some time, the two of them arrived at the end of the graveyard and saw a special tombstone.
The reason why it was special was because there were words on it.
Slayer.
These two words were carved on the tombstone. They were as red as blood and as cold as ice.
Anyone who sees it can feel the desire to fight. Just like the legendary God of War, even though he has fallen, his fighting spirit still stands proudly in the world!
"Slayer … is that the name of this army …" Ling Xian's expression froze.
The elder's expression turned serious as well.
He stared at the two words "Demon Slayer" and said, "If that's the case, then I think this should be the legendary army."
"You know about it?" Ling Xian was startled.
"There were some records about it in ancient books."
"During that era, there were three undefeatable armies. The Demon Slayer Army was one of them."
"It was created by the Alchemy Ancestor. Wherever it pointed at, everyone was terrified."
"But then, the Demon Slayer Army disappeared without a trace. There was no news of them at all."
Speaking of the Demon Slayer Army, the elder's tone was full of respect.
"The reason? How can an undefeatable army disappear for no reason? "Ling Xian frowned.
"The reason is not recorded in the ancient books, but everyone knows it."
The elder looked at Ling Xian and said, "I'm sure you have guessed it."
"An extraterrestrial demon?" Ling Xian hesitated.
Only the Heavenly Demons had the ability and motivation to destroy the Pill Ancestor's unrivaled legion.
"That's right. Although I can't be sure, apart from the Extraterrestrial Demons, who else can make the Demon Slayer Legion disappear?"
The elder softly sighed, "I really did not think that the battlefield would be here."
"Was that the era of the Sky Demon's invasion?" Ling Xian asked.
"Not bad."
"Planet Big Dipper is the planet with the weakest barrier to the Immortal Plane. With just a small price, a True Immortal can descend."
"Thus, when the Sky Demons invaded, True Immortals all descended to the lower realms."
"There's no need to mention what happened next. The True Immortals won. However, they also paid a disastrous price."
"The Demon Slayer Army is one of the prices. However, there has never been a conclusion."
"Now, we can be sure that the Demon Slayer Army that once terrorized all nine levels of Heaven and 10 Hells has truly been destroyed."
The old man sighed and briefly explained what had happened in that era.
"It is no wonder they formed spirits and their souls are indestructible."
Ling Xian sighed, feeling a little respectful.
Everyone who fought against the Sky Demons, no matter what their cultivation level or identity, was a hero worthy of respect!
"I understand now. I was wondering why the Alchemist built his tomb on Planet Big Dipper. He descended to the lower realms because of the war and died because of the war."
Ling Xian's frown relaxed and he felt much more relaxed.
Though there were still questions he had yet to answer, at the very least, he understood why the Alchemist's tomb was on Planet Big Dipper.
"He might not have died. After all, he was the Alchemist. If I don't see it with my own eyes, I find it hard to believe he died."
The elder glanced around as if he was looking for the Alchemist's tomb.
Sadly, other than one tombstone that had words on it, the rest of the tombstones were empty.
"I don't believe it either."
Ling Xian's gaze turned determined, "Let's continue. Sooner or later, we will solve all the mysteries."
As he spoke, he strode forward in huge steps.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt an unusual ripple coming from under the Demon Slayer Monument.
"This is … the Qi of the Sky Demons!"
Ling Xian frowned. He has fought against the Sky Demons many times and was naturally familiar with this unique Qi.
After he carefully sensed it, his expression changed.
Because not only was this the Qi of the Sky Demons, it was similar to You Chen's!
Remember that You Chen was an ancestor, a being equal to a real immortal. Why wouldn't Ling Xian's expression change?
"Are you sure?"
The elder's expression changed. He began to prepare himself and waited.
"I am sure."
Ling Xian stared deadly at the monument, "Plus, this is not a normal Qi of the Sky Demons. This is the Qi of the Sky Demons."
"What?!"
The elder exclaimed and subconsciously stepped back, "You are saying this is the Qi of the Sky Demons?"
"That's right."
Ling Xian's expression was serious. He has fought against You Chen many times and was very familiar with this Qi.
"Impossible!"
The elder's face was full of shock, "Back then, many Sky Demons appeared. But they have all fallen. There is no way they are still alive!"
"My judgment will never be wrong."
Ling Xian's gaze was deep, "If I am not wrong, this Sky Demon is sealed."
"Sky Demons are equal to real immortals. They are undefeatable. How can they be sealed?" The elder didn't believe it.
"If they can kill, why can't they seal?"
"The person who sealed him was this monument and the hundreds of souls."
"I have overlooked something. I didn't realize that this cemetery is an array. It uses the monument as the eye of the array and the souls to seal a Sky Demon."
Ling Xian softly sighed. He was busy fighting against the souls and didn't have the time to observe.
Only now did he realize that this thousand-mile graveyard was actually a Demon Sealing Formation.
"Then … what should we do?" The elder was silent for a while.
"What should we do?"
Ling Xian bitterly smiled, "Even the Ancestor of Alchemy's undefeatable army could only seal it. What do you think we can do?"
"Leave," the elder said in a low voice.
"We have to leave."
Ling Xian sighed, "Though I really want to kill this Sky Demon, we don't have the ability to. It's good enough that we don't cause trouble."
"Let's go. This is a dangerous place. Leaving is the right way to go."
The elder didn't want to stay any longer. Anyone else would have done the same.
That was an undefeatable Sky Demon. That Sky Demon didn't even need to show himself. He only needed to release some Qi to turn him into dust.
Therefore, why wouldn't he be afraid?
"Let's go. I think the truth isn't far away."
Ling Xian stared into the distance, "As long as I can get my hands on the Ancestor of Alchemy's inheritance, all my questions will be answered."
After saying that, he walked forward with his head held high without hesitation.
