The four great sects were shaken. The elders of the Ziwei Sect all had dark expressions on their faces. They were so gloomy that water was about to drip from them. The strongest of the four great sects had already lost three core disciples in less than six hours since the start of the trial. This was an absolute humiliation, an indescribable humiliation.
"Damn it, that little bastard!"
Zi Fenghong's face was the most unsightly, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. He'd never imagined that Jiang Xiaofan would actually be formidable to such an extent now. He'd dispatched three great Illusory God Realm experts to hunt Jiang Xiaofan down, yet the outcome was like this. All of them were killed, and this outcome almost caused him to be overwhelmed with rage, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, in the Graveyard of Gods and Ghosts, the news of Ziweijiao's three core disciples being killed at the same time spread into the ears of many trial takers. It really caused an uproar in this place, and many people were shocked.
"Three core disciples were traveling together, but they were all killed by the same person. This …"
"Which ruthless person did this? So sharp?"
"Those were Ziweijiao's core disciples!"
The strongest trial not only included the core disciples of the four great sects, but also the outstanding geniuses of many small sects. It could be said that all the experts of the younger generation of the Ziwei Star had gathered in the Graveyard of Gods and Ghosts. Not only were their cultivations powerful, but their mental states were also far from what ordinary people could compare to.
However, after hearing this news, many people were still surprised. The dignified Ziweijiao, the leader of the four great sects, was usually incomparably powerful, and no one dared to be disrespectful. However, now three core disciples had fallen at the same time, and they were killed by the same person. This was really a bit shocking, and it shocked many trial takers.
In this gloomy world, danger and opportunity coexisted. Not only were there powerful magic treasures buried here, but there were also mysterious ancient pills, and there might even be shocking secret technique inheritances. The temptation was extremely strong. Therefore, all the cultivators of the Ziwei Star wanted to enter to try their luck.
Jiang Xiaofan had been here for more than six hours. After killing Ziweijiao's three core disciples, he directly went to the deepest part of the Graveyard of Gods and Ghosts. The so-called ancient battlefield of the gods, he hoped to find some traces of the gods in this world. The kingdom of the gods, he still had not found any trace of it.
"Is she … related to God?"
This was what Jiang Xiaofan had been thinking about the most during this period of time. Even an unrivalled existence like Liu Chengan had never heard of the Kingdom of the Gods. He had no idea what kind of influence it was or where it resided. Even in the ancient books in the Imperial Heavenly Sect, he could not find any clues related to it.
Jiang Xiaofan calmly walked through this world. The Graveyard of Gods and Demons, just like its name, was truly a graveyard that lived up to its name. Even Jiang Xiaofan couldn't help but be aghast. This place was simply an enormous graveyard.
Along the way, he had already lost count of how many corpses he had seen. Some of the corpses weren't very old, just a decade or a few decades old. They must have once participated in the trial of the strongest, but had died in battle in this world.
A small portion of the skeletons appeared to be a little astonishing. He was holding onto a calf bone that had existed for an unknown period of time. There was no way to measure how long it had existed, but he could sense that it was definitely not someone from this era.
Not long after, he appeared in front of a black wood cliff, and was immediately stunned by the scene before him. There was a canyon in front of him. The soil was crimson red, and the air was humid. There were close to 100 corpses scattered all over the place. Judging from their age, they weren't that old, being at most a few decades old. They were all former cultivators.
The most important thing was that from the looks of these corpses, they seemed to have died in an extremely tragic manner. Each of the corpses was filled with teeth marks as if some demonic beast had gnawed on their flesh and blood. It gave off a bone-chilling feeling, and even Jiang Xiaofan felt a chill run down his spine.
"Boom …"
The aura of death here was even thicker, like that of the underworld. It was very sinister. A ferocious beast poked out from the side. Its eyes were demonic red, and its body was covered with a layer of black fur. Its claws were almost a meter long, and the cold light was penetrating.
Jiang Xiaofan didn't care. He directly slapped it away, shattering it into pieces in the void. Black blood splattered all over the ground.
In the Graveyard of Deities and Ghosts, there were treasures, pills, and secret techniques. There were many of these things, but there were also endless dangers. There were countless ferocious spirits and ghost beasts, and among them, there were even existences comparable to Renhuang. It could be said that this world was full of murderous intent. If one wanted to encounter the Celestial Opportunity, sometimes one had to risk one's life.
Jiang Xiaofan was about to leave, but right at this moment, he suddenly stopped and gazed at a stone wall in the gorge. There were a few rows of strange ancient characters inscribed there. They were forceful and majestic, and the flow of the characters was dense and fine. They were mixed with strands of sorrow, and it instantly caused his pupils to constrict as he strode over without the slightest hesitation.
His expression was focused, and he frowned. The characters drawn on this stone wall were very ancient. He didn't know which era they were left behind. There were hundreds of characters, but he could only recognize a few. However, it was these few words that made his expression change.
"Divine King, Heaven, War, Samsara, Starry Sky …"
Jiang Xiaofan was a little shocked. Divine King, Heaven, these two words were too sensitive. And Samsara. What were these words trying to express?
He stayed in this place for more than half a day, trying to figure out the other ancient characters, but in the end, he didn't get anything. These characters were really too ancient and difficult to recognize.
In the end, he shook his head and prepared to leave to find the next ancient site. However, right at this moment, his gaze focused, and he looked towards a pile of rocks in front of the canyon.
There was a very special corpse lying there. There was actually flesh and blood outside its bones. Even though it had already withered beyond recognition and looked like a dried corpse, it undoubtedly seemed very strange in this place. Most importantly, there was a faint glimmer of light flowing through that place.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned slightly, but he still walked towards that place in the end.
However, right when he was a few meters away from the corpse, he suddenly felt an enormous pressure press down on him, and it was like a demonic mountain was pressing down onto him. The corpse in front of him had clearly withered while its life quintessence had dispersed, but strands of terrifying aura seeped out from it, and it caused him to feel as if his body was on the verge of falling apart.
"This …."
He couldn't help but be slightly surprised. This person is too terrifying. It's impossible to imagine exactly what sort of cultivation he attained when he was alive. Even the corpse he left behind after death is able to possess such might. I'm afraid even an expert at the Mysterious Immortal Realm would find it difficult to accomplish, right?
Jiang Xiaofan gritted his teeth, and he felt even more strange. He endured the enormous pressure and squatted down beside the corpse. It was also at this moment that he finally discovered what the glowing thing was. It was actually a piece of ancient beast's fur, and it was more than three feet long.
Jiang Xiaofan carefully took it out, and he immediately felt a pain in his palm as if he had been pricked by a needle. There was an extremely fierce killing intent flowing within it, as if a bloodthirsty ancient ferocious beast was sealed within, and it caused his soul to tremble.
This caused him to be shocked. This ancient beast's fur was too extraordinary. The aura contained within it was too fierce, and it seemed as if it wanted to sever one's soul and obliterate one's will. Holding it in his hand like this, he felt as if a peerless heavenly blade was pressed against his throat, causing his physical body that was comparable to an expert at the Renhuang Realm to feel intense pain, and he almost couldn't help but throw it away.
"Cast by the Divine King …"
There was a faint silver light lingering in his hands as he stared at the beast's fur. A Divine Sense imprint was directly transmitted into his Sea of Consciousness, causing him to tremble violently and widen his eyes. This was actually a weaponsmithing technique, and it recorded an extremely profound method of refining weapons.
"Divine Treasure!"
Jiang Xiaofan's eyes widened, and two large words instantly appeared in his heart. Even though he only skimmed through the contents of the God-Monarch Creation Scroll, he was still shaken. Refining a single dao weapon to break through myriad laws in the heavens — this was definitely a heaven-shattering blacksmithing saint art. He felt a deeper profundity within!
He carefully put it away and stared at the corpse next to him again. Suddenly, he felt a trace of familiar aura, which made him slightly puzzled. However, in the next moment, he suddenly thought of something and turned his head to look at the stone wall from before.
"Those words were carved by this person …"
The aura that the words on the stone wall gave off was very similar to this corpse. Although much of it had been worn away by time, it could still be felt.
He stood up again and slightly scanned the canyon. The surroundings were filled with pitch-black fog, like streaks of black smoke. Even the sky was hazy, and there were dark clouds everywhere. He prepared to leave.
"Ao …"
Suddenly, a shrill cry sounded. In the crevice on the right, a black light rushed out as fast as lightning, pouncing towards Jiang Xiaofan.
This was a very strange creature. It was less than the length of a palm, but it had horns and scales. Its entire body was black, and there was a pair of red fleshy wings on its back. Its claws were green and shone with a sinister light.
Jiang Xiaofan did not care. With a light flick of his finger, a streak of silver light shot out from between his fingers.
This attack seemed simple, but it was very powerful, enough to kill a strong person of the Seventh Sky of Awakening Realm. However, the strange monster in front of him actually opened its mouth and swallowed the Killing Light that he had unleashed in one gulp.
"Damn, it can't be?"
Such a scene made Jiang Xiaofan unable to help but curse, his eyes widening.
And it was also at this moment that the space shook, and there was a similar cry. Countless black lights rushed out from the crevices on both sides, as if they had found delicious food, and attacked him together.
Jiang Xiaofan waved his right hand and shot out countless killing lights, almost illuminating every corner of the canyon. However, what shocked him was that the divine light he swept out had no effect at all. It was all swallowed, becoming food for those monsters, becoming rations.
Bang, bang, bang …
Although these creatures were strange, their speed was very fast, like streaks of black lightning. They were very excited and pounced at him at the same time, covering the barrier of divine light outside his body. They opened their mouths and gnawed at it, making Jiang Xiaofan's hair stand on end. These monsters were eating the divine power outside his body!
