Inside the cave, it was not pitch-black. Instead, it was brightly lit.
This was a strange space. In this space, there were nine ancient lamps. Each one of them shone with a golden light, like nine suns. It was extremely dazzling.
However, the most dazzling thing was not the nine ancient lamps. It was the huge object in the center of the space!
It was a thousand feet tall and shone with a golden light. This light made it impossible for Zhu Que and Ye Tianze to see what it was.
"Human?" A voice came from the huge object in front of them.
As the golden light faded away, Ye Tianze was able to see clearly that it was a giant that was over a hundred zhang tall.
It had a fat head and big ears. Its chest and back were bare. The flesh on its stomach was almost dragging to the ground.
Neither the Vermilion Bird nor Ye Tianze were excited to see one of their own. Instead, they felt a sense of disgust and nausea. This was despite the fact that this giant was not dirty at all. Instead, it was as clean and flawless as the Spirit Race.
"What kind of monster are you?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Monster?" The giant was not angry. "I am not a monster. I am the supreme being of this world. I once lived on that continent."
"Supreme being?" The two of them looked at each other in confusion. If not for the fact that they were weaker than the giant, they would have laughed out loud.
"You do not need to know who I am. I am not killing you because I want you to do something for me." The giant said.
"What is it?" Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"Help me go to the ancestral land of the Spirit Tribe and get something." The giant said.
"Hmm!" Ye Tianze muttered to himself.
"What is it?" Zhu Que asked.
"A lamp." The giant said. "A lamp that illuminates the world."
"Why don't you go get it yourself?" Ye Tianze asked.
"If I can get it myself, why would I need you?" The giant said coldly. "If you don't want to go, I can eat you now."
"Go, go, go. Of course." Ye Tianze's eyes flashed with craftiness as he said, "But with our strength, how can we get the lamp you want? Besides, this secret realm is filled with Spirit Tribe members. I'm afraid we'll be killed before we even reach the Spirit Tribe's ancestral land. "
"I will help you." The giant suddenly smiled strangely.
The two of them couldn't help but shudder. At that moment, something strange happened. The giant suddenly opened its mouth and sucked in the middle-aged Spirit Race individual.
The two of them clearly saw the Spirit Race individual being sucked into the giant's mouth. But strangely enough, the Spirit Race individual was still lying where he had been.
"Soul Seizing Technique!" Zhu Que exclaimed. "This guy … has the Myriad Soul Body!"
"Myriad Soul Body?" Ye Tianze had a strange expression. "What Myriad Soul Body?"
"Although there is reincarnation in the world, the soul is an illusory thing. Only the legendary Myriad Soul Body can see the soul!" Zhu Que said. "The Myriad Soul Body is like a magnet. It can absorb all the souls in the world to strengthen itself."
"Then how can we see it?" Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"Because of the Myriad Soul Manifestation!" Zhu Que said. "The human race once had a Myriad Soul Body. His strength was comparable to the Human Emperor's. He once fought with the young Human Emperor and defeated all the heroes in the world. Wherever he went, corpses would be left behind. Legend has it that such a death was true death. Even the foreign races felt threatened by him. Fortunately, he was killed by the young Human Emperor!"
"You're knowledgeable. You even know about the Myriad Soul Body." The giant looked at Zhu Que with surprise in his eyes.
"What are these nine lamps?" Ye Tianze asked.
"I don't know." Zhu Que shook her head. She had never heard of these nine lamps in the legends she had heard before.
"The Nine Lanterns illuminate, illuminate longevity!" The giant explained. A hint of fanaticism suddenly appeared on its face.
The Vermilion Bird was silent, but Ye Tianze was deep in thought. Although he had never seen the Myriad Spirit Body in his previous life, with his cultivation level, who cares about the Myriad Spirit Body? It was just a matter of a slap.
He was deep in thought because the giant's Nine Lamps illuminated longevity.
This was another person like Xuan, who was endlessly obsessed with longevity. But this time, he wasn't surprised at all. Who could resist the temptation of longevity? That was an infinite amount of time. Any wish in this world could be realized in this infinite amount of time.
Ten thousand years in a glance?
Perhaps a hundred thousand years or even a million years in a blink of an eye were possible because time was no longer time.
"If my guess is correct, you need ten lamps." Ye Tianze suddenly said. The humility on his face disappeared.
In its place was a kind of calmness that came from having experienced the vicissitudes of life. He looked at the giant in front of him without any fear.
"How do you know?" The giant showed a hint of surprise.
"If the Nine Lanterns illuminate immortality, then wouldn't you have already obtained immortality?" Ye Tianze said. "So, it must be ten lamps. Nine is the extreme number, and it is also the number of days in this world. Only by surpassing nine can you jump out of this world and obtain the transcendence you want … No, it should be the longevity you want."
When the giant heard this, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He said coldly, "Good boy, you are indeed knowledgeable. You are right. Surpassing nine is ten. Ten is the total, and only then can you obtain longevity. If you can bring me the tenth lamp, I can give you anything you want, even the sun, moon, and stars on the continent!"
"I will help you steal the lamp." Ye Tianze said.
"Very good." At this moment, the middle-aged Spirit who was lying on the ground with his soul sucked away suddenly stood up.
The injuries on his body began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. He turned back into the handsome middle-aged Spirit, but this time, his face was less gloomy and more peaceful. However, this peaceful look made Ye Tianze and Zhu Que want to vomit.
But what sent chills down the spines of the Vermilion Bird and Ye Tianze was the fact that this Spirit race being was no different from the Spirit race being from before, other than the fact that he had a face that made one want to vomit.
However, Ye Tianze knew that the entity residing in the Spirit Race being was no longer the Spirit Race being. It was the Myriad Spirits Body giant.
"If you have such a secret technique, why don't you go and get it yourself?" Zhu Que suddenly asked.
"I can't leave this place." The middle-aged Spirit said. "And this Spirit Possession Technique can't be hidden from those damned things in the ancestral land!"
"How do we enter the ancestral land?" Ye Tianze asked.
"You have awakened the Wood Spirit Blood, right?" The middle-aged Spirit looked at him mysteriously.
"Four spiritual powers?" Zhu Que turned her head and looked at him strangely. "You cultivate four spiritual powers!"
She knew that Ye Tianze had displayed wind, fire, and thunder spiritual powers, but she didn't expect Ye Tianze to have a fourth spiritual power.
It was no wonder. When Ye Tianze fought the ten Goblin Kings, although he had displayed his greatest strength, his wood spiritual power was completely overshadowed by the wind, fire, and thunder spiritual powers.
