An ancient ship that had existed for who knew how many years, dark and without light, mottled with rust, rested in front of him. They were about to meet.
However, there was a trace of fluctuation, one that was extremely similar to the aura of life. This left Ye Fan extremely shocked. Several hundred thousand years had passed, so how could there still be living things?
All life source energy descended. He activated the cauldron, suspending it above his head, covering him tightly like a curtain of rain. Then, he held the black gourd in his hand, facing it seriously.
The nine dragon corpses didn't show any reaction. The enormous bronze coffin continued to float forward, silent and without any changes.
In the darkness and coldness ahead, the purple-gold ancient ship finally approached, arriving before his eyes, about to brush past him. The ancient weapon scars on its surface recorded a past event no one knew about.
In the past, that battle definitely happened in the star domain, at the very least ancient saint level figures participating, or else there was no way it could reach the depths of the cosmos.
Ye Fan was a bit moved. This type of ancient ship's past owner was definitely incomparably powerful, yet it was beaten to this state. Who knows, there might be a tremendous secret hidden within.
"I'm about to miss it. That strand of fluctuation is still like this. Should I board it and take a look?"
There wasn't any danger, and that strand of fluctuation wasn't that powerful. This made him feel restless, really wishing to get to the bottom of it.
The boundless cosmos was vast and boundless. As he traveled like this, it was difficult for him to find anything related to life and civilization. In the dark cosmos, being able to see this type of ship was truly a type of miracle.
"Several hundred thousand years have passed, there might not be any living creatures, and there might not be any fluctuations of life either …" Ye Fan seriously thought about it, feeling that the chances of there being life were extremely low.
This ancient ship was worth boarding. It might very well be a tremendous divine treasury that involved ancient saints. Any random artifact would be priceless!
The instant he was about to miss it, Ye Fan took action. A streak of divine light shot out from his palm, connecting it to the enormous and grand old-fashioned warship, allowing it to move at the same pace as the dragon corpses.
There was still no reaction. There was no sound from the warship, no calls, no waves. It was deathly still.
Ye Fan did not disembark immediately. Instead, he waited for a long time. The body of the ship and the bronze coffin moved side by side. It was impossible to say who changed whose trajectory. In this dark universe, there was no sense of direction.
Observing it up close, one could see the vastness and antiquity of this warship. Ye Fan felt that those cracks were at least several hundred thousand years old.
This type of purple gold was unordinary. It was refined a hundred times into divine gold, completely different from what one would normally see. A type of divine power was infused into it, and undying patterns were carved on it, allowing it to remain undamaged until now.
"At the very least, this is the method used by the Ancient Sages to refine the Sacred Weapons, even though it's almost destroyed."
The ship's body was in tatters. Blade marks and sword holes could be seen everywhere. This was a great battle that took place in the depths of the cosmos. Just thinking about it made one's heart pound. The events of the past made one fascinated.
Ye Fan tried to use his divine sense to investigate, but he was shocked to find that this ancient ship could obstruct his powerful divine sense, unable to see through it.
After another hour, he was convinced that the danger was minimal. Only then did he board the ship and enter the dilapidated cabin to explore the ruins.
"Fluctuations, it's right ahead!"
The cabin of the ship was vast and boundless, like a huge palace. There were all kinds of halls and ancient secret rooms inside, and one couldn't see the end of it with a single glance.
This didn't seem like a ship, but more like an immortal residence. It was vast and boundless, and everything could be found there. He even saw a dried up medicinal field.
Of course, not a single blade of grass grew inside. The spiritual medicines and other things had all turned into ashes. A divine pearl floated above the medicinal field, but it was also cracked, and the spiritual energy was about to dissipate.
Time was the most terrifying power. Everything could be obliterated, and in the end, nothing could escape its reckoning.
The fluctuations were like water splashes. Right ahead, Ye Fan's heart tightened. With the black gourd in hand and the Myriad Energy Cauldron above his head, he walked over step by step.
A human skull, snow-white and sparkling, like the most perfect work of art in the heavens. It was quietly displayed in an ancient palace, not moving at all, and emitting a gentle radiance.
The fluctuations were actually released by her, and it made Ye Fan feel a false alarm. It wasn't the so-called living body.
"This speed …"
However, immediately after, he was greatly shocked. This skull was very special. There were fluctuations of the dao, and it was naturally formed, making people feel close to it.
"The skull of a saint!" He was shocked to discover this fact.
No wonder even after hundreds of thousands of years had passed, the skull was still emitting fluctuations, and it was still immortal. This was left behind by an ancient saint who transformed into the dao.
Transforming into the dao, one would naturally refine one's own body and return to the natural heavenly law. Only one or two of the hardest bones, which even the body couldn't melt, would remain.
Just a skull like this, one could imagine how precious it was. It could definitely be refined into an unrivaled sacred weapon, and it would possess immortal divinity!
"This is the skull of a woman …" Ye Fan muttered to himself.
It was a female ancient saint, and from the shape of her skull, part of her appearance could be restored. With such a divine beauty, she must have been a peerless beauty.
"There are words …"
In this ancient cabin, Ye Fan saw a few lines of beautiful small words engraved on the copper wall beside the skull. Just like the skull, it condensed the dao rhythm, because it came from the hands of a saint.
"Immemorial Divine Text!" Ye Fan was astonished. This kind of ancient text was said to be the common language of all races in the ancient times, and even humans used it.
He carefully read it. Because he had two ancient races translate the Sun Scripture, he had also learned some ancient characters, and could more or less recognize a portion.
After reading it, he roughly understood the meaning, and he was incomparably shocked. There was a person mentioned — Wu Shi.
"So even in the future, there are humans who use divine text."
In the boundless universe, eternally boundless and gloomy, the female saint was stunning. She had once seen a supreme character called Wu Shi, and she admired him from the bottom of her heart.
However, the Great Emperor Wu Shi only appeared briefly. He accompanied her for a while and passed on a dao formula to her. Then, he disappeared, and it was said that he had returned to his homeland.
When he read this, one could imagine how shocked Ye Fan was. There were indeed other sources of life in this desolate universe. Ancient China and the Big Dipper Star Region weren't the only ones.
The Great Emperor Wu Shi had been to other ancient stars, and he had even interacted with a woman for a period of time. This shocked Ye Fan considerably. If the Black Emperor knew about this, he would definitely roar towards the sky.
The female saint entered the Boundless Star Region in search of an opportunity to prove her dao, and even more so, she wanted to see Wu Shi again. However, in the vast universe, she didn't know where to go.
As far as she knew, there were only a few sources of life in the entire universe. She tried her best to find one, but in the end, it was hopeless.
After her cultivation reached the peak, she couldn't go any further, and she couldn't prove her dao. In the end, she passed away in the starry sky, and died alone.
"An amazing woman who admired Wu Shi died in the starry sky just like that."
"The Great Emperor Wu Shi passed away in the Purple Mountain. He couldn't have known that a woman had once pursued him like this. Otherwise, with his unparalleled magic power, he might have helped the female saint prove her dao."
"Did the Great Emperor Wu Shi really die in the Ancient Sovereign Mountain?"
Every time he thought of Wu Shi, he would think of the Purple Mountain's bell, which had forced back four or five extreme path ancient emperor weapons. That was simply unimaginable.
"In this boundless universe, how many sources of life are there?" Ye Fan read carefully, and then he was shocked again. In the last paragraph, the female saint had mentioned the ancient path of the stars. Unfortunately, when she discovered the ancient path, she didn't have much life left, and couldn't pursue it.
The female saint had seen the ancient ship before she passed away, but before she could explore it, she passed away. She was just a latecomer.
This skull was a priceless divine object, but Ye Fan didn't want to profane it. If he could really return to the Big Dipper Star Region one day, he would consider bringing it to the Purple Mountain.
Suddenly, when his hand was close to the crystalline skull, he felt an extreme chill. The chill pierced into his bones, and even with his strong physique, he couldn't withstand it.
"Ding!"
When the skull was lifted, a jade pendant fell down. It was less than an inch long and shaped like a crescent moon. It was clear that it was the female saint's favorite object.
The bone-piercing chill was emitted by it, and it could freeze one's soul. If it wasn't Ye Fan, but another cultivator, they would most likely have become an ice sculpture.
"Lunar Saint Power!"
Two beams of divine light shot out from Ye Fan's eyes. Enduring the extreme cold, he held the jade pendant in his palm and observed it carefully. Only those who had cultivated the Lunar Scripture could cultivate this kind of saint power.
"It's just a jade pendant. How can it emit the Lunar Saint Power?"
He tried to use his divine consciousness to enter the jade pendant, but he immediately felt as if he was being pricked by needles. His head felt like it was splitting. The Lunar Saint Power in the ancient jade was even more terrifying!
"Could the dao formula that Great Emperor Wu Shi gave her back then be in the jade pendant?" He had a bold thought.
In the end, Ye Fan put away the skull and the jade pendant and continued forward. The ancient cabin was vast and boundless, and there were many places waiting to be explored.
Along the way, he saw pieces of scrap metal. Without a doubt, they must have been divine weapons and ancient treasures many years ago.
The battle back then was very intense. There were traces of destruction everywhere in the ancient cabin. There were no bones, only some bone dust.
"It's not a human …"
Ye Fan also found some broken scales among the bone dust. There were even a few divine feathers buried in the bones. They belonged to a very powerful alien race.
Not long after, he came to a magnificent temple. His eyes trembled as he finally saw a human-shaped bone dust. There was even a finger bone that had not melted.
"It's been hundreds of thousands of years, maybe even longer. To be able to leave a finger bone, this person must have been unimaginably powerful when he was alive."
Suddenly, Ye Fan was shocked. There were words under the bone dust, and they were still divine characters. He squatted down and carefully observed them. He saw the words' Ancient Starry Sky Road 'again.
"I discovered the Ancient Starry Sky Road, it leads to …" The words suddenly stopped here, unable to continue. This person seemed to have died from exhaustion.
"What a pity!" Ye Fan sighed softly.
Soon after, he finally approached the center of the ancient ship. When he pushed open a set of copper doors, he immediately came into contact with a dust-covered mysterious land.
What entered his eyes was a sparkling and translucent expanse. There were rows and rows like coffins. There were dozens of large pieces of divine source!
"Heavens, so many!"
Even though Ye Fan had seen many things, he still couldn't help but cry out. There were more than forty large pieces of divine source, and every piece was two or three square meters in size. There was an ancient creature sealed within.
He was truly stunned. Even the Nest of Ten Thousand Dragons didn't have this much. What kind of power was this? If they were all archaic kings, it would be enough to shock past and present, making one's blood run cold!
"Something's wrong!"
Ye Fan quickly discovered something strange. There were so many divine source pieces in the same cabin, yet there wasn't the slightest bit of divine force fluctuations, nor was there any dazzling radiance. On the contrary, they were all a bit dim.
"This is … the essence of the divine source has all been used up, and only an empty shell is left!"
This type of scene was even more terrifying. All of the divine source had been used up. Just what kind of great calamity did the ancient creatures inside experience? How many years had they floated in the cosmos?
"Are they all archaic kings? Are they all dead? Their flesh, bones, and weapons are all priceless divine objects!"
