The ancient Mars was clearly much larger than it was now, but because of the great changes, it shrunk and became like this.
The Northern Sea Eye was dried up and there was no water. When Ye Fan and the others arrived, they only saw sand and boulders that had been washed clean. Most of them were scarlet red in color.
Some said that this was caused by blood. The battle back then had dyed the entire Mars Star red. If not for that immortal treasure suppressing it, the so-called solar system wouldn't even exist anymore.
Peng!
The Hundred Feet Heavenly Worm took action. It moved away a boulder and opened the seal, revealing a pitch-black hole. A cold and sinister aura appeared, shocking one to the soul.
Ye Fan walked forward and was the first to enter. He went straight into the depths and could vaguely hear the sounds of tsunamis. This was a vast world that was far more vast than one could imagine.
There was a seal below. At first, it wasn't difficult to break, and it wasn't a problem for the Great Sage. Only when they heard the chanting of scriptures did they raise their guard.
"Wu, it's that group of monks. They became a group of ghost monks."
A large ship blocked the way. Golden light shone for tens of thousands of zhang, and waves of chanting could be heard. However, it was extremely weak and could break at any time.
"No, it's different from hundreds of years ago." Ye Fan said softly.
How powerful was his divine sense? Those ancient buddhas and arhats were all gone. There was a layer of powder on the ship. They had all melted and turned into dust.
The chanting came from the ship itself. It was the reverberation of the past buddhist chants and not the chanting of scriptures.
It was clear that something had happened. This place was different and much more terrifying than before. One had to know that this wasn't the deepest part.
Finally, they arrived at the underground world. Everything was shaken. There really was a sea that was pitch-black like ink. It was boundless and without end. It was extremely strange to see such a scene underground.
"This is a world of its own." The Great Xia Dragonfinch said.
Based on what he knew, it was extremely difficult to get close to the Endless Sea. Even the Great Sage found it difficult to break through. Now, it was so easy. It was clear that the great seal had been broken.
"Be careful!" The Mountain Phoenix reminded.
"Don't worry, Old Rooster, no, Lord Mountain Phoenix!" Yin She hurriedly changed the way he addressed her. He had accidentally called her that way, and he was really afraid that he would bring about a fatal disaster.
"Now that we're here, let's work together. Everyone, make sure to explain everything you know in advance to avoid any major problems," Ye Fan said.
As he finished speaking, he was the first to descend into the black ocean to investigate.
There were no unforeseen changes. This place was deathly still, without any signs of life. There were no fish in the sea, and even less of a demon. It was a dead sea, completely silent.
[Is this the place where an entire generation of Emperor Level Experts were buried?] Nothing could be seen, only water and the Black Sea.
There was no danger here. It was very calm, but the silence was almost scary. It made people feel that something was wrong.
They all followed beside Ye Fan and Shan Huang as they advanced into the depths of the sea. After all, these were two Quasi-emperor, which gave them enough confidence to advance. It could be said to be a luxurious lineup.
With their speed, crossing a star domain wasn't a problem. However, they still couldn't reach the limits of the sea. It was a great world after all.
Finally, they saw an island. It was pitch-black like a mountain ridge as it emerged from the water surface.
However, as soon as they got closer, their expressions changed. How was this an island? It was actually a vertebra that stretched across this place. It was incomparably large, stretching over ten thousand li.
This was an enormous skeleton of many sects. It was submerged in the sea, yet it could protrude out like this. It was truly shocking.
"This is a star beast, still in its infancy. It lives by eating star cores. Who would have thought that this type of creature really existed? We haven't seen many of them since the ancient times."
Everyone was astonished. This type of creature's potential was limitless. In the later stages, it would reach Quasi-emperor level strength. In reality, the few that appeared in history had all stirred up endless storms.
If not for this race being so rare, it would definitely become a great disaster for the universe.
"Boundless Water Realm, when will it reach its end?" Someone said to himself.
Ye Fan extended out his divine senses, but it was extremely strange. This place was extremely special. Even someone as powerful as his divine will couldn't investigate everything. It was covered up by a mysterious fluctuation.
"It's that supreme treasure's aura. It has turned into a formless great dao, cutting off everything here."
"It might be underwater." Shan Huang spoke about the clues she obtained.
The Hundred Feet Heavenly Bug said, "Wu, then let's go down and take a look. However, this sea doesn't seem right no matter how I look at it. Who knows what might happen if we go down rashly."
"Let's give it a try first. If there is something terrifying lying dormant, there will be a battle sooner or later. We might as well do it as soon as possible." Yin She said.
"Let me do it!" That red-crowned crane transformed into its original form. With a spread of its wings, they covered the sky and covered the sun. Then, it fiercely hacked downwards, its divine wings like snow-white heavenly blades, splitting the heavens, splitting the vast sea into two.
Suddenly, a terrifying aura rushed into the heavens, locking onto the red-crowned crane. An enormous tentacle reached over, as if it was a demon from the abyss of hell. Its entire body was bumpy and covered in mucus, its tentacle reaching several thousand li in length.
The red-crowned crane clashed with it. Its silver wings erupted with brilliant light, releasing keng qiang sounds. It flew outwards.
That tentacle was extremely powerful. It continued to extend outwards, almost wrapping around it and pulling it into the sea. There was a terrifying demonic nature to it.
"It's an octopus! It's this enormous, full of corrosive power, deathly energy pervading the air."
When the seawater rose and fell, they saw a gray octopus that was the size of a heaven connecting giant mountain. It was suffused with deathly mist, even more so a type of decaying aura.
This wasn't a true prehistoric octopus, but rather a dead spirit formed from endless rotting flesh. Yin energy overflowed into the heavens.
"Heroic spirits rest in peace, dead slaves guard the tomb … this is what my master told me when he was still alive. It seems like it really is under the sea." Someone said with shock.
This octopus was extremely strange. There was the corpse of the Great Sage on it, as well as the fragments of the Quasi-emperor's weapons. It was extremely powerful, weaker than the abnormal Great Sage, to the extent where some parts were even stronger.
"Pu!"
However, in front of the true Quasi-emperor, it wasn't much. The Mountain Phoenix reached out her hand, pointing out. That enormous creature was directly blasted apart, turning into mud. Yin energy and the stench of decay overflowed into the heavens.
The Mountain Phoenix pointed out again, opening up a passage, separating them from the seawater, directly entering the boundless sea.
"This is …"
They didn't know how far they traveled. They unexpectedly passed through the water layer, arriving at the very bottom. It was incredibly spacious without any water, the vast sea covering them, not falling down.
Meanwhile, the ground was densely packed, skeletal remains everywhere, ice-cold corpses of creatures everywhere, stretching as far as the eye could see. This made one's scalp go numb.
Just how many people died back then? Why were there so many? They couldn't see the end of it with a single glance?
"This is the place! We arrived at an ancient battlefield that buried an entire era! There were even Emperor Dao figures who fell here!" The Yin Snake was moved.
"Something isn't right! It was rumored that normal people couldn't enter at all, so why didn't we expend any effort?"
"This place's seal was broken by someone, so we weren't obstructed, directly arriving at this battlefield!"
When they heard this result, their minds sunk. Someone beat them to it, arriving many years before them.
Ye Fan lowered his head, looking at this endless battlefield. He sensed endless yin energy, as well as a strand of exuberant life force. He knew that there was great danger here.
Back then, he had speculated that there might be Yin spirits reborn here, and now, it seemed like it was true.
"This is simply the second of the underworld! The most terrifying situation might appear!" The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow said, his expression extremely gloomy.
Ye Fan brought out the Green Lotus, holding it in his hand just in case. He walked forward.
As they walked forward, they became more and more alarmed. There were countless broken weapons and flags on the ground, no lack of Quasi-emperor weapons. Even though they were destroyed to the point where they couldn't be used, even the materials' divinity had disappeared, they could still see that they were definitely Quasi-emperor weapons.
Just how terrifying was that battle back then? There were actually so many damaged weapons left behind, the level of those weapons was too high.
Moreover, they discovered that there were many layers to the battlefield. They were originally all sealed, the deeper they went, the deeper the seal became. However, now, they had all been broken, their path unobstructed.
"Too terrifying, it had long been broken by someone, it's too horrifying!" Even the Mountain Phoenix was shocked.
It was because when they approached the core region, the battlefield's remaining sealing power made even him feel like it was troublesome. If it was him who broke through the seal, he most likely wouldn't be able to reach this place.
There were countless corpses on the ground, the earth black and red. This was formed from endless bloody mud and ruined blood. In a battle of that level, it was difficult for corpses to be left behind, they would inevitably turn into bloody mist.
"These remains were piled up by someone later on, or else there would only be ruined blood. They were buried here, turned into a cemetery."
A great world becoming a cemetery, just how terrifying was this?
"I feel like it wasn't later generations who buried them here, but rather someone who did it themselves, needing these flesh bodies."
Ye Fan frowned. He sensed a powerful wave of life force. Even though he was drowned under the sea of death energy, he could still sense it with his spiritual senses.
"We've arrived, the core burial ground."
"What is that? There are several corpses, their blood already flowing out, dying here!"
They were shocked. In the depths of the battlefield, there was an incomparably grand palace. There were many flesh corpses around it, but there were three that were special, lying in front of the palace gates.
A divine tiger, definitely the Quasi-emperor!
Ye Fan was shocked. This was the mount of the Long Life Celestial Being in Immortal Mausoleum. Before the final battle, when the immortal path collapsed, this tiger disappeared, never expecting to appear here.
It was already a corpse, the blood essence within its body drained, the rotten blood on the ground long lacking spiritual energy.
Beside it, another corpse was also recognized.
"This is someone from the Underworld, they actually found this place, it's a war slave!" Ye Fan already understood the Underworld quite well, seeing through its origins. It had reincarnation imprints on its body, as well as the symbol of an Underworld slave.
It hadn't truly awakened, possessing great strength. It was sent out to carry out a mission, yet it died here.
There was another Quasi-emperor, one he didn't recognize. From the looks of it, it had already been several hundred years since it died. It similarly lost its blood essence, rotten blood scattered all over the ground.
Not to mention the other demons, even the Mountain Phoenix's heart was pounding. Even the Quasi-emperor had died here, each with a great background, it most likely wouldn't be able to escape if it went in.
Ye Fan stared ahead, the Green Lotus in his hand slashing through the thick yin mist, or else this kind of thing could even block the Heaven's Eye.
Within the grand palace, there were three severed arms, half a head, and many pieces of flesh that didn't belong to the same person.
An explosion sounded in Ye Fan's mind. That was the flesh and blood of an Emperor Realm expert, who ate them, leaving only these remnants?
He had fought with a supreme being before, so he knew that the flesh and blood definitely belonged to an Emperor Realm expert. However, now that the blood essence was gone, and the Emperor Realm's laws were erased, one could no longer feel that kind of supreme dignity, only that unique aura was left.
And they seemed to have been devoured by a large beast.
This made one's scalp go numb!
After carefully sensing, he discovered that the severed arms, broken heads, and pieces of flesh were filled with the power of time, left behind by someone countless years ago.
Ye Fan's body went cold. What exactly was buried in the depths of Ying Huo? What was the truth? It definitely wasn't as simple as the outside world said.
Something was sleeping here, devouring the endless flesh and blood, eating the remains of the Emperor Realm experts. The fallen supreme being who had buried an era back then had actually met such a fate.
Could it be that that thing was still alive? The Divine Tiger, the Underworld's war slave, and the nameless Quasi-emperor had all fallen outside in the past few hundred years, their blood essence had all disappeared.
Ye Fan's eyes burst with light, the Heaven's Eye of Source piercing through the void, illuminating the entire palace and dispersing the yin mist.
"What is that?" Someone trembled.
In the void above the palace, there was a blood-colored ball of flesh that looked like a large cocoon. It was pulled into a void gate, about to disappear from this world at any time.
Behind that gate, there was a primal chaos bell with a suction force. It was precisely this bell that was pulling the ball of flesh in. The two sides fell into a deadlock, and this state should have lasted for quite a long time.
"How could it be here?!"
Even someone as strong-willed as Ye Fan's expression changed greatly at this moment, and he couldn't help but cry out in alarm. This was too shocking. That was actually the Wu Shi Bell!
Back then, this bell had filled up the path of immortality, so how could it be here now? It was going to pull that terrifying ball of flesh into another world!
The immortal bell wasn't here, but the Wu Shi Bell had appeared. This caused great waves to surge in Ye Fan's heart. There was indeed a great terror beneath the Ancient Mars Star, and a great bloody secret was hidden.
