The dusky Heaven Ascension Ancestral Temple grew even darker at this moment. It was so dark that one couldn't even see their fingers if they stretched out their hands. After the miserable screams, there was only deathly silence. Everyone halted their steps as their bodies turned cold.
"Floated … floated out!" Finally, someone trembled as he pointed to the front. His face was filled with terror.
That was a human skin floating in the air. It was like a piece of paper with no weight at all as it floated down to the ground below their feet. It was as though the human skin had been flattened. Their facial features were deformed and filled with malevolence.
"What's going on?" Everyone was dumbfounded. They had just entered the temple and a group of people died at the same time. This ancient temple was far more sinister than what they had imagined.
Where was the flesh and blood? Where were the bones? Why did they all disappear? Only the human skin seemed to be intact. What happened exactly? What kind of evil spirit was there exactly?
Through the temple gate, one could see numerous pairs of eyes flickering in the darkness. After that, they gradually dimmed before vanishing into the depths of the temple. This caused people to feel a chill. The ancient temple was extremely bizarre and difficult to see through. They couldn't see clearly what was inside.
Many people were trembling. This was just the temple gate. Only heaven knew what else was in the depths of the darkness. It had been shrouded in demonic mist for over two hundred thousand years, nobody knew what had happened.
"I give up, I'm not going in anymore!" Many people decisively made their decision. Divine treasures might be valuable, but if they lost their lives, that would truly be lamentable. Some people were very straightforward and left the group, walking back. No one mocked them. Knowing when to give up was also a kind of realm, a kind of intelligence.
"There's no lack of second-level immortal-foundation characters among those who died!" Someone sighed. Behind them, there were even more people watching as they all frowned.
Some old men squatted on the ground and observed the human skin. They didn't see any flaws, not even a wound. These people seemed to have shed a layer of skin and underwent a transformation, their true bodies vanishing.
"They must have died. That fluctuation of divine sense earlier was the final struggle of their primordial spirits." Someone spoke with certainty.
Although something strange happened, it was impossible for people to stop here. Some people had cold expressions on their faces as they took out their own treasures. The treasures hovered above their heads, illuminating the surroundings as they walked resolutely towards the ancient temple.
Their weapons flickered with divine splendor. Streaks of splendor descended from above their heads, illuminating the path ahead and illuminating everything inside the temple. It was completely empty, nothing at all.
"Us cultivators, if we want to succeed, we must advance courageously. How can a trifling ancient temple block our path!" An old man said in a deep voice.
He and the others quickly disappeared into the darkness. This time, there were no screams. They quickly passed through the First Academy and disappeared into the darkness.
The ancient temple was really strange. The second floor seemed to cover up everything. The people outside could not hear any sound or see any light. It was as if the two sides were completely isolated.
Many people were watching from the sidelines, wanting to see if it was good or bad before making a decision. However, right now, it was hopeless. Just waiting wasn't a solution at all. Because, if those people succeeded, they would definitely clean out all the rare materials and they wouldn't be able to get anything.
"Let's go. Since we've come all the way here, we can only go on our own. Otherwise, it would be too regretful." More people chose to move forward, unwilling to fall behind others. Because this was the ancestral temple of the number one god dynasty of the Desolate Era. It was fine if there were no magical artifacts inside, but if there were any, it would definitely be a world-shocking divine artifact.
Ye Fan, Pang Bo, Monkey, and the others also walked towards the temple gate. The Black Emperor first confirmed that there were no killing arrays inside the temple gate, and then he let Duan De walk at the front. It could be said that this was his domain, and no one else could compare to him.
"This is a temple world, it's vast and boundless!" After Duan De entered, his expression immediately became gloomy.
From the outside, it looked like an ancient temple, but after entering, they discovered that this was a terrifying group of small worlds. Each courtyard was a world, connected together, and it was magnificent to the extreme.
One couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. The Yuhua God Dynasty was really generous. In the past, there must have been an existence with unparalleled magical power who didn't hesitate to exhaust his source energy to evolve so many small worlds. The so-called ancestral temple was unfathomable.
"Even if there is a wall separating us from the courtyard, if we don't enter, we won't know what happened on the other floor of the ancient temple because there is actually a small world between us." Duan De continued.
Everyone discovered that it was impossible to fly over, let alone climb over the wall. There was a spatial enchantment, unless one shattered the vacuum and blasted it open. However, no one dared to be rash in such a place. In the past, the Yuhua God Dynasty ruled half of the Central Continent. If their most sacred place was destroyed, only God knew what kind of shocking changes would happen.
"This is equivalent to a maze. It's so vast, there are so many ancient temples, and so many small worlds that are connected. At the end, we might get lost!" The big black dog said, solemnly reminding everyone.
In front of them, it was pitch-black. The courtyard was quiet and silent. No one spoke. Everyone held their breaths and focused as they walked towards the second floor step by step.
On the ground, there were pieces of human skin scattered over a large area. Clearly, the first batch of people had almost all died. All of them were spread out on the ground like ferocious scrolls.
The blind old man said, "The Yuhua God Dynasty is very mysterious. Legend has it that many of their enemies directly ascended when they died, evaporating from the world. Occasionally, they would leave behind beards and hair."
Everyone sucked in a cold breath. Only a piece of skin was left. The blood and bones had disappeared, but there wasn't much of a difference. It was really as if they had ascended in a strange ancient temple. It was terrifying.
Whoosh!
A snow orchid on Duan De's body lit up. It turned from pure white and flawless to crimson like blood, emitting a demonic light in the darkness. At this moment, they had already arrived in front of the courtyard door of the second floor.
"Most of the second batch of people who entered are also dead. Only the thick smell of blood can cause the snow orchid to change color!" He said solemnly. He squatted down to examine carefully and discovered a few strands of blood flowing out from the gap of the closed door.
Everyone's hair stood on end. Those who entered just now were all powerhouses, and there was no lack of supreme mighty figures. Could it be that they all died?
Creak, creak.
From a distance, Duan De pushed open the door of the second floor with his divine power. In an instant, the pungent smell of blood rushed over. It was pitch-black inside, and it was deathly quiet.
They sucked in a cold breath of air. Apart from the human skin that covered the ground, there were many snow-white bones that were dyed with wisps of blood. There were also many pieces of flesh that were torn apart, and quite a few intestines and other things flowed out. It was an incomparably bloody scene, too horrible to look at.
"Those who just went in are all dead!"
Ordinary people had turned into human skin. Those older generation powerhouses were powerful. After struggling and resisting, they were all torn apart by something.
Duan De pinched a pitch-black flower between his fingers. It looked like it grew in the netherworld, and it actually affected one's soul and made them want to fly in involuntarily. This was the Dead Spirit Flower, and it grew in the pit of ten thousand people. It had the heaviest yin aura.
He shook his hand and threw the Dead Spirit Flower in. The pitch-black flower landed in the courtyard, and there was no change. It didn't move at all, and it was the same even after a long time.
"It's not a dead spirit or a ghost. There's something alive here!" Duan De said solemnly.
There was something alive in an ancient temple that had been sealed for more than two hundred thousand years? This news was shocking, explosive. Ye Fan and the others' expressions were all shaken.
"Let's go!"
Ye Fan walked in the front. The Myriad Qi Cauldron hung above his head, and streams of source qi fell down, protecting him tightly. Ji Ziyue's eyes flashed, and she followed closely beside him. The monkey also stepped forward with the pitch-black iron rod in his hand, and also stepped into the courtyard.
It was still quiet, and there was no sound in the courtyard. It was deathly silent, and only the shattered bones and flesh were shocking to the eye. When they all entered, there was only the sound of breathing.
"Ah …"
Suddenly, a mournful scream broke the silence. An incomparably terrifying aura was released above their heads, and it rushed towards the top of their heads.
This unforeseen event was too sudden, and they actually didn't sense anything just now. The terrifying danger appeared suddenly, and there was a living existence that was causing trouble.
The moment they raised their heads, their scalps went numb. On the tall courtyard wall, and under the pitch-black eaves, there were corpses hanging one after another. Their hair was disheveled, and at this moment, they all opened their eyes, and like green lamps, they all fell down head first.
"Damn it, grave robber, didn't you say there were no malicious spirits? What are these things?" The big black dog barked, and all the fur on its body stood up. Because its movements were slow, it was as if it was carrying a demonic mountain on its back, and also as if it was pressed down by a ghost, unable to move.
It was the same for the others. Their movements were very slow, and it was difficult for them to move quickly. Meanwhile, those terrifying existences that were like hanged ghosts swooped down, and grabbed at their heads.
"F * ck, all of you, die for me!" Pang Bo was very fierce. He directly took out the goddess furnace that he borrowed from Yan Yixi, opened the lid, and burned it with divine flames.
"Ah …" Mournful screams resounded through the courtyard, and waves of charred smell spread out.
The things hanging upside down on the eaves all had disheveled hair, and their eyes were ferocious and frightening. They actually all stretched out demon-like flesh wings, and rushed into the sky. With flames circling around them, they screamed miserably, and it was incomparably horrifying.
The more mournful their screams were, the slower everyone's movements became. The old blind man said, "Cut off their sound waves, don't let them touch our bodies!"
Everyone came to their senses, and they all did as he said. Immediately, their movements returned to normal, and there was no longer the slightest bit of sluggishness. Pang Bo shouted, "I don't care what you guys are. Today, I'll shoot you all down."
He used the goddess furnace like an anti-aircraft cannon, shooting out ball after ball of terrifying flames. This was a sacred weapon that had been passed down through generations, and the flames contained within were naturally incomparably powerful. After burning down several dozen charred bodies, they almost didn't look like anything.
"What exactly are these things?" Everyone looked towards Duan De and asked.
"Don't blame me. You guys have also seen that they have life, and they are living beings, not Yin ghosts." Duan De squatted down, and carefully observed. Then, he walked under the eaves, and looked towards the pitch-black ancient hall. He shuddered, because there were many of these things inside.
"I know, these are the descendants of the Yin God. There must be a peerless great calamity in the depths of the temple!" Duan De's expression changed, and his expression was even uglier than when he saw the will of a god.
"What are the descendants of the Yin God?" Everyone didn't understand.
They were incomparably powerful when they were alive, and after death, their divine bodies were immortal. They were coincidentally buried in the Yin Eye of the earth veins, and after countless years, there would be a day when this corpse would "come back to life". Of course, it had nothing to do with when they were alive. This was a new life form, a brand new beginning. It could also be understood as the highest level of corpse transformation. This was a life born from the extreme of death, and it could be said to be a heaven defying miracle. If they learned to cultivate, they would gradually become unrivalled.
This kind of existence was a brand new life form, and it could also give birth to descendants. The group of living beings in front of them were the descendants of the Yin God. Of course, the power of their bloodline was very thin.
When they saw people or other living beings, they could directly imprison their movements and suck out all the blood and flesh from their bodies. It was the most terrifying thing!
