The Black Emperor was bewildered. It hesitated, worried that someone wanted to use a corpse to become a Martial Emperor.
Ye Fan shook his head. "It's impossible for a corpse emperor to appear. There are sounds of a great battle inside. If there really is such an existence, then even if all the cultivators of the Eastern Wasteland were to come, they would all perish!"
This building was made from gold and jade. It sparkled with a brilliant yellow light, as clear as crystal, seeming both real and illusory.
They walked up the stairs. The jade steps beneath their feet flowed with auspicious light. There wasn't a hint of yin energy, but rather the fragrance of flowers. The jade buildings were surrounded by flowers and plants.
As they walked into the first jade palace, a rich spiritual energy rushed towards them. Everything was sparkling and sparkling; all of the objects were carved from spirit jade.
"Let's split up so we don't attract attention." Ye Fan took the lead and walked forwards.
The Black Emperor shrunk his body to a mere foot long. He was like a cat as he strode forwards, stealthily moving forwards.
Within the first palace, the ground was covered in blood. Many cultivators had died violent deaths, their corpses nearly torn to pieces. There were also several ghost soldiers, no, perhaps they should be called ghost generals.
Although they had been hacked to death, they were still vivid and lifelike. They had a pair of two meter long black wings on their backs. As he tapped them with his fingers, they emitted a clanging sound; they were indestructible.
"It looks peaceful, but there are still such things guarding this place. This really isn't a good place."
Ye Fan hesitated for a moment and then walked forwards. The second palace left him shocked. If he stepped on the ground, blood would submerge his feet. Besides the corpses of cultivators, there was also an eight-headed snake.
The snake's corpse lay on the ground, its blood flowing all over the place. The entire palace was submerged, and the stench was incomparably foul.
"For yin energy to give birth to such a powerful flesh and blood, it really is terrifying. I didn't think it would be killed in the end." The Black Emperor was flabbergasted from afar.
Ye Fan found a cut on the Great Desolate Halberd. It had been hacked to death by the Little Golden-Winged Roc. This future king of the monster race was truly brave.
"Thud, thud, thud …"
In the quiet palace, the sound of Ye Fan's own footsteps echoed out. As he entered the third palace, a silver light rushed towards him, accompanied by an evil wind.
He was startled and formed a hand seal. With a loud "dang" sound, the creature was shaken away.
This was actually a Flying Yaksha that flickered with silver radiance. Its appearance was sinister, and it had a pair of silver wings. It was robust and powerful, and with a low roar, it threw itself murderously at him again.
This was the first time Ye Fan had seen something like this. Legend had it that it was at least as strong as the Four Extreme Hidden Realms. It was extremely powerful and hard to deal with.
But he was not afraid, because although this Silver-winged Yaksha was frightening, it was already at its last gasp. Half of its body had already been smashed by someone, and now it did not have much strength left.
He swung out his golden palm, and it seemed like an enormous seal that could overturn the heavens as it fiercely chopped down, shattering the Winged Yaksha with a bang.
There were over a dozen Silver-winged Yakshas' corpses on this floor. They were equivalent to cultivators of the Four Extreme Secret Realms, but they were all killed by the disciples of the various sacred grounds.
The strength of the younger generation of the holy land's successors was evident.
Similarly, there were also corpses of human cultivators in the main hall. The casualties were heavy, and the scarlet blood was more than the silver blood. The ground was red.
Not long after, Ye Fan entered the fourth floor of the main hall. There were even more corpses of human cultivators. The entire floor was strewn in disorder, and a bloody mist lingered around.
There were six special corpses in this floor. They were not human, but six Yuhua daoists. All of them were skin and bones, and they wore daoist robes.
Their skin and flesh were shiny and dry, wrapped around their bones. There were some short feathers growing on the surface of their bodies. When one touched them, their bodies felt as heavy as ten thousand catties, and the feathers made clanking noises.
These were not formed from yin energy, but were refined by someone after a true cultivator passed away. With a yin spirit as their master, these powerful ancient corpses possessed unimaginable battle prowess that surpassed the Four Extreme Secret Realms.
"Six Yuhua Daoists have been killed. Their powerful golden bodies have been broken. These holy land descendants are indeed terrifying."
Although Ye Fan was surprised, he wasn't too surprised. Ji Haoyue and the Jiang Clan's divine physique could fight across secret realms after revealing their phenomena. They could even kill experts of the older generation, let alone these six daoists.
"This tomb is really unusual. There are even daoists here. I wonder what else will jump out. I'm starting to wonder if there's really someone who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, who wants to become a monarch with a corpse? "The Black Emperor muttered to himself.
There were even more corpses on the fifth floor. There was no place to stand, and the ground was covered in bloody mud. Occasionally, white bone fragments would splatter out and stick to the translucent jade walls.
"What happened here? Don't tell me everyone died here?" Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat.
Suddenly, Ye Fan sensed the remnant power of the extreme path. At the same time, he found three special broken bones in the bloody mud. They had a jade-like luster.
The Black Emperor was shocked, "These are three jade bone corpses. They must have been almighty when they were alive. After their deaths, they were refined and possessed by a yin spirit. Although they can't compare to almighty beings, they are still extremely terrifying."
"They can even find the corpses of almighty beings …" Ye Fan was quite shocked.
It was obvious that Yan Ruyu had used an extreme weapon to shatter the three jade bone corpses. There were still traces of extreme divine might left.
Ye Fan listened carefully. After a while, he heard the sounds of intense fighting. The battle had started again and it was very far from here.
He didn't stop and walked towards the sixth floor. This was a rather long journey, at least five kilometers away.
In front of him, there was only one bright palace left. It shone brightly in the pitch-black underground world.
The depths of the earth had been hollowed out. The sixth palace was especially far away, as if it was floating in the air. It looked even more ethereal.
"The last hall, all the secrets are there!" Ye Fan was excited. There might be nine secrets, or there might be others, but it was definitely an extraordinary place. He quickly rushed forward.
In the pitch-black underground, the Black Emperor walked like a cat, extremely agile. He opened up a distance and followed closely behind.
When he arrived at the last hall, Ye Fan felt the immortal might of the extreme path, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
"Extreme weapon …" The Black Emperor's eyes flickered, he wanted nothing more than to snatch it over.
Right in this last Light Palace, there was clearly a great battle going on. Even after using the Extreme Path weapon, it was still so intense. One could imagine how powerful the opponent was.
He did not immediately enter. He stopped in the distance with the Black Emperor and waited quietly.
"Boom!"
The entire underground world was shaking, but the sixth floor of the palace was dazzling and did not collapse. It was still standing tall, and it was obvious that there were extraordinary Dao patterns engraved on it.
In this hall, there was a board with four words engraved on it: Light Palace.
"BOOM!"
The ground trembled again and again, all of them erupting from the Light Palace, but it remained motionless and did not collapse.
"Why do I feel that this Light Palace is a little familiar …" The Black Emperor was bewildered.
Just at this moment, Ye Fan was shocked. They had reached the end of the jade palace, but there were still three huge objects in the pitch-black area behind them. They were sitting in the darkness and did not emit any light.
"That's … three coffins!"
His heart trembled. Three coffins, the smallest one was as big as a palace, and the three coffins were taller than the other, standing tall in the darkness.
"Six ancient halls, three large coffins, combined together, it is nine words, the number that the ancients paid the most attention to." Ye Fan muttered to himself.
"Boom!"
The Light Palace suddenly shook, and then quietened down. The Extreme Path immortal might decreased sharply, and slowly returned to normal.
"Is it over?" Ye Fan was ready to move.
Suddenly, the Light Palace was in chaos, as though they were fighting over something.
"As expected, it's over. Forget about those three coffins, let's enter the Light Palace to take a look." Ye Fan flew over.
When he was about to get close, the Black Emperor's body shook, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face. "It's him …"
"What did you see?" Ye Fan hurriedly stopped, and turned around to look at him.
"How is this the Light Palace? This is clearly the emperor's former sleeping palace. Which bastard brought it here and changed its name?!" the large black dog cursed in a low voice.
"What?!" Ye Fan's heart trembled. No matter how he asked, the Black Emperor did not say anything else, and only responded with silence.
Ye Fan had no choice but to stride toward the emperor's sleeping palace.
This Light Palace was very deep, and the Extreme Path immortal might was still overflowing, but many human cultivators were almost about to start fighting each other.
In the center of the grand and spacious palace, there was a Divine Altar floating in the air. It was completely black, but streaks of auspicious light shot out from it, and it was very mysterious.
What attracted people the most was that there was an ancient beast hide scroll on the Divine Altar. It looked very ordinary, but it instantly caused everyone to become excited.
Everyone wanted to rush over, snatch it, and make it their own, because it was very likely that it was the Nine Secrets!
The strongest descendants of the Da Yan, Wan Chu, Jiang Clan, Zi Fu, Dao Yi, Ji Clan, Yao Light, and other Great Sage Clans were all unscathed.
In the palace, Ji Haoyue, the Yao Light Saint, Yao Xi, the Jiang Clan divine body, the Jade Lake Holy Maiden, and the others were all on guard. They all wanted to make a move and snatch the ancient beast hide scroll on the black Divine Altar.
Ye Fan felt that only one important person was missing, and that was Yan Ruyu. She had an Extreme Path weapon, so how could she have disappeared?
"There …"
He discovered that there was an ancient pagoda in the palace. At first, he thought it was just a decoration, but now he realized that it was an extremely terrifying weapon.
The ancient pagoda was translucent, and he could vaguely see that Yan Ruyu was being suppressed on the fifth floor. Light flickered in her hand, and she was using the Extreme Path weapon to resist.
This pagoda had a total of seven floors, and on the highest floor sat a hazy figure. It was him who was controlling the ancient pagoda and suppressing Yan Ruyu.
Ye Fan sucked in a breath of cold air. This person was definitely incomparably powerful. Although this ancient pagoda was a great weapon, how could it be compared to the Extreme Path weapon? The difference was too great.
This person had used his absolute strength to seal the Demon Race Princess who had the Extreme Path weapon. He was the protector of the sixth floor!
Ye Fan's heart went cold. Many of the saint children present didn't make a move to help. They all had their own thoughts while Yan Ruyu was resisting the terrifying expert.
The black Divine Altar that was floating in the center of the palace emitted streaks of auspicious light. It made people feel incomparably comfortable. That beast hide scroll was very close at hand, and many of the holy land's descendants were ready to fight at any time. However, no one dared to be the first to snatch it.
"What exactly is that black stone platform? How can it float in the air on its own?" Ye Fan transmitted his divine sense.
The Black Emperor seemed very excited as he said, "That's a f * cking treasure — a Primal Chaos Stone. It's the bed that the Great Emperor used to sleep on!"
