Within the graveyard, five stone tablets towered. They were like true deities hibernating, mysterious and terrifying, their auras devouring the stellar rivers.
"This is …"
Ling Xian's expression turned serious as he felt an unusual vibration. It was powerful and strange.
"Graves of Divinities."
The elder in green showed respect. The elder from the Temple of the Earth God did the same.
"Graves of Divinities?" Ling Xian's pupils constricted, confused.
It wasn't because the Divinities had fallen, it was because the tombs were built here.
To know that Divinities, like real immortals, lived in the world of immortals. Even if they had fallen, they wouldn't build their tombstones in the mortal world, let alone five.
"That's right."
The elder in green nodded, "When the Temple of Tianxiang and the Temple of the Earth God were created, these five tombs already existed. Their origins are unverifiable."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned. He thought about it, "When were the two Temples created?"
"Nearly 30,000 years." The elder in green exclaimed.
"Nearly 30,000 years …"
Ling Xian's heart skipped a beat. He guessed that these five Immortals may have fallen in the war 30,000 years ago.
In other words, the reason these five Divinities built their tombs here was very likely because of the demons.
"It's worth a try." Ling Xian's eyes narrowed and he made a decision.
"Okay, don't waste time."
The elder in green looked at Little Zi and said pleasantly, "Are you ready?"
Hearing this, Little Zi nodded solemnly. Her beautiful eyes flickered with anticipation.
"Okay, empty your mind and don't resist."
The elder in green's expression turned serious. As he formed a hand seal, the five tombs glowed and each released a mysterious force.
Booom!
The five mysterious forces converged and poured into Little Zi's body through the top of her head.
Instantly, an unspeakable pain hit her, making her face twist and her body tremble.
"Hold on, don't give up!" The elder in green said in a low voice.
"I understand."
Little Zi clenched her teeth and her eyes were firm. Even though she was in so much pain, she didn't want to give up.
This opportunity was too rare. How many years would it take for the five tombs to produce such a small amount of power? How could she give up?
"You can only rely on yourself."
Ling Xian softly sighed, helpless.
This was Little Zi's problem. Even the immortals of the Great All-Embracing Heaven couldn't help.
"The transformation will take time. We will guard this place. You can move freely."
The elder in green looked at Ling Xian, then sat down in a lotus position and closed his eyes to rest.
So did Little Zi.
She calmed her mind and chanted the incantation to refine the strange power.
Seeing this, Ling Xian walked to the tombstone closest to him. The space between his brows began to emit light and he began to investigate.
In the end, he found nothing. He didn't find anything unusual.
This made Ling Xian frown. Unwilling to give up, he continued to search but to no avail.
"Am I thinking too much?"
Ling Xian frowned. Glancing at the five tombs, he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
That was because the positions of the five tombs were very strange. They were not arranged in a straight line, but were located in the north, south, east, west, and center. It was like a formation, which was quite strange.
However, Ling Xian did not see the array carvings nor did he feel the power of the array.
This was a little strange. Remember that Ling Xian was an array grandmaster. If it really was an array, there was no way it could hide from his eyes.
But if it wasn't a formation, how could the five tombs be arranged like this?
"North, South, East, West, and Center … could it be the five elements that seal the demons?"
Ling Xian frowned and pondered. He remembered one of the tombs recorded in the general guide.
The five elements seal the demons.
This tomb's ability was very strange. It could seal the demons and it could also meet the demons.
The former, as the name suggests, refers to suppression. Based on the general guide, if the five tombs are all enlightened, then even an immortal king can be suppressed.
However, there are pros and cons.
If one cannot completely refine it within a certain amount of time, then the sealing energy will turn into nourishing energy.
In other words, this was a double-edged sword. If used well, even an immortal king can be killed. But if it fails, then the demons would be met.
Therefore, Ling Xian's expression changed and he subconsciously stepped back a few steps.
He didn't know who the five tombs were suppressing. But he was certain that to be able to force the five Immortals to set up these tombs, at the very least, they must be enlightened!
"What is it?"
The elder in green opened his eyes, confused.
"I found something incredible."
Ling Xian bitterly smiled. The five elements seal the demons. This type of tombs was extremely rare. Even if one were to die ten thousand times, one wouldn't be able to compare.
Plus, it was set up by five Immortal Tombs. It wasn't hard to imagine what kind of terrifying existence was sealed inside.
"Something incredible?"
The elder in green frowned. The elder from the Hall of the Earth God was confused as well.
Though they were knowledgeable, when it came to the five elements, they were confused.
What could they do? These tombs were far too rare and far too hidden. Even the best tomb robbers might not recognize them.
"It's normal that you don't recognize them."
Ling Xian softly sighed and simply introduced the five elements.
This made the two elders frown. They were a little shocked and a little suspicious.
The five elements seal the demons was far too unbelievable. Anyone would find this hard to believe.
"If it's already been brewed, then it's nothing. But if it's not, then it's troublesome."
Ling Xian exhaled deeply and asked in a low voice, "Before, did these five tombs emit any energy?"
"No."
The elder in green shook his head, "Never."
Hearing this, Ling Xian's heart dropped. He bitterly smiled, "Let's pack our things and get ready to run."
"What do you mean?" The elder in green frowned.
"Even though Immortals have fallen, their flesh and blood still possess great power."
"Therefore, the five elements seal the demons. But if it's not brewed within a certain amount of time, the energy from the flesh and blood of the Immortals will become nutrients and be eaten away."
"You said the five tombs never emitted any energy. This means before, they were being suppressed, so no energy ever leaked out."
"Now, the energy has leaked out. Do I need to say more about what this means?"
Ling Xian bitterly smiled, his brows were full of worry.
He guessed that the five Immortals fell in the great war 30,000 years ago. In other words, the existence that was being suppressed by the five elements was most likely the foreign ancestors.
Once it comes out, who can stop it?
In this era where real immortals and Immortals don't appear, even if all the cultivators in the universe combined together, they cannot stop one move!
"You mean the five elements did not brew it. Sooner or later, this person will come out." The elder in green frowned but his expression didn't change.
The elder from the Hall of the Heavenly Earth did the same.
They weren't sure of Ling Xian's guess, so they naturally didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.
"That's right. Though there's no way to confirm the exact date, it will definitely come out."
Seeing that the elder wasn't too surprised, Ling Xian softly sighed, "Use your brain and think. What kind of existence is needed to be sealed by five Immortals?"
Hearing this, the elder in green was startled. Then, he stood up with a "bang".
The elder from the Hall of the Heavenly Earth's expression changed as well.
A lion doesn't compete with an ant. Someone that needs to be sealed by five Immortals has to be at the same level!
