The bone fragment was warm and sparkling, it was very comfortable to hold in one's hand. The engraved pattern was clearly visible, but it would be too complicated to call it a map.
"Good stuff."
Ying Xiong happily grabbed it in his hand and played with it. He said, "Back then, for the sake of a bone fragment like this, I fought with others until the heavens fell and the earth cracked. I obtained it from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. I never thought that after meeting you, I would see two of them in a row."
The Yin Yang Tree was full of spiritual energy. Its branches were luxuriant, and every leaf had yin and yang energy circulating around it. Sitting at the stone table under the tree made one's mind peaceful. If one meditated here, it was indeed a good place to train.
The zombies, death knights, and terrifying undead seemed to be afraid of this otherworldly pure garden. They didn't want to touch the holy aura, so they didn't follow them here.
Xiao Chen had already escaped from the stone table. He, Sky Beyond Sky, Ying Xiong, and Ying Xiong tried to piece the three bone fragments together. They wanted to know where the engraved pattern was pointing.
"It seems like the complete bone map is very big. The three bone fragments are not connected, they can't be connected at all."
Sky Beyond Sky and Ying Xiong were very interested in this bone map. They lay on the stone table and pondered seriously.
"Old Xiong, you are a native of the Death World. Look at the direction of the engraved pattern. Don't tell me it's a mountain range of death? Don't you find the engraved pattern familiar?"
"The Death World is too big. Even if I have the strength of a Sovereign King, it is impossible for me to travel the entire continent. Especially the depths of the Death Continent."
The depths of the Death World had always been very mysterious to Xiao Chen. With a Sovereign King level demon here, the gossipy flame in his heart was immediately ignited. He talked a lot more than usual and asked non-stop.
"All the experts in this world would be filled with reverence when they talk about the depths. What exactly is there?"
"It is a terrifying region. The degree of danger is beyond imagination. Even a Sovereign King would be in danger of dying at any time."
Ying Xiong revealed a rare serious expression and said, "Isn't the gray mist we saw dangerous enough? But it is only one thing. There are many similar mysterious powers in the depths of the Death Domain. Especially in the vicinity of the Immemorial Demon City, it is even more dangerous. That place is simply a synonym for death. Sometimes, a ray of multicolored light would flash past and a Sovereign King would immediately turn into ashes if they were to collide with it. "
"Can you be more specific?"
Xiao Chen felt that the deepest part of the Death Continent was even more mysterious and unfathomable.
Through Ying Xiong's simple narration, Xiao Chen was deeply shocked. In the depths of the continent of death, there were not only ancient ruins with overflowing corpse aura, there were also divine gardens filled with a pure and holy aura … … This was a mysterious world that challenged one's imagination.
Moreover, it was very likely that these mysterious places were not even the deepest depths of the Ultimate Realm.
The most shocking thing was that the mysterious land seemed to have an irresistible magic power. Every few hundred years, it would emit traces of fluctuations, causing the King to involuntarily walk in, wanting to find out what was going on.
Sky Beyond Heaven pieced the few pieces of bone together and studied them over and over again. He said, "If this is a map, then it would be a very dangerous and complicated place. There are too many twists and turns, and there are too many paths to take. We would have to avoid many regions."
Hideo nodded and said, "It's most likely in the deepest part of the Death Continent."
They chatted about the bone map and the depths of the dead zone while enjoying the Yin Yang Fruit. The whole garden was filled with a refreshing fragrance.
The three Yin Yang Trees were luxuriant with leaves and fruits everywhere. The Yin Yang Fruits hanging on the branches hadn't been picked for many years, it was basically uncountable. Even a few big eaters would be stuffed to death here.
Xiao Chen sat on the stone stool at the side. He was in high spirits. After the three hundred and sixty-five main acupoints were divinized, he was able to control the sword in a simple manner. However, the divinization did not stop there. The minor acupoints and the minor acupoints began to undergo divinization as well. He believed that his control over the sword would become more and more perfect.
"I suggest that we meditate here for a period of time. Once we accumulate enough power, we will go to the depths of the palace to explore the secrets."
Both Human Outsider and Xiao Chen agreed with Sky Beyond Heaven's suggestion. Especially since Hero's life force was almost exhausted in the past ten thousand years, he needed a true recuperation.
This divine garden was filled with spiritual energy. Moreover, there were three Yin Yang Trees, and the branches were filled with divine fruits. It was enough for them to reach their peak state.
Time passed by day by day, month by month, year by year.
In the blink of an eye, thirty years had passed. During this period of time, Human Outsider, Sky Beyond Heaven, and Hideo had eaten all the fruits on the Yin Yang Tree.
For them, even the Divine Yin Yang Fruit couldn't increase their cultivation. Once they reached the Sovereign King realm, external spiritual items were already useless. The reason why they ate so many of them, other than the fact that the fruit was rare and the taste was indescribable, the main reason was that they were storing the spiritual energy. They refined the essence of each ginseng fruit into their bodies to avoid the tragedy of Hideo's life force being almost exhausted. After all, the surroundings were shrouded in gray mist. Without an effective replenishment of spiritual energy, the blood essence would be exhausted sooner or later.
In these thirty years, Xiao Chen had also eaten all the divine fruits on the Yin Yang Tree by himself. The number of divinized acupoints was uncountable.
He was quite surprised. The structure of the human body was mysterious and unpredictable. There were many acupoints that he had never heard of before. He only knew about them when they were divinized and turned into a bright spot.
There were dozens, even hundreds of hidden acupoints in a square inch. Take a thumb as an example, there were hundreds of tiny acupoints. They were densely packed like stars. Moreover, looking at the situation, there were even more tiny acupoints that could be divinized. It seemed like there was no end to them.
Xiao Chen was speechless. He felt like he was decrypting the password of his body. If this continued, he would be able to understand every detail of his body. If all the acupoints were divinized, they would be comparable to the countless stars in the vast starry sky.
Under the Yin Yang Tree, Xiao Chen quietly sat cross-legged in the empty space. His entire body was enveloped by a divine radiance. He looked like a supreme deity. Complicated and profound patterns were faintly discernible on the surface of his body. A few Heavenly Steles were guarding the four corners of his body. It was as if he was separated into a small, independent world.
Xiao Chen's three hundred and sixty-five main acupoints were shining brilliantly like stars. They were exceptionally dazzling in his flesh. At this moment, he had already immersed his Spiritual Sense into them. He could clearly see a figure meditating in every main acupoint. It was a dignified and saintly figure.
Back then, when these acupoints had just divinized, he had already discovered that there were figures sitting cross-legged in the acupoint space. Now, they were becoming clearer.
Those figures sitting cross-legged seemed to be him, but at the same time, they didn't seem to be him. Their faces seemed to be covered in mist from time to time. They all looked mysterious and unfathomable. He didn't know if they were him or not.
"This brat is really strange."
Ying Xiong muttered as he watched from afar, "He really … can eat too much!"
The divine radiance completely vanished. The patterns on Xiao Chen's body disappeared as well. He descended from the sky and sat on a stone stool under the tree. He said, "Are you guys done adjusting?"
"It has been thirty years, and you still haven't adjusted? We were just waiting for you."
"Good, then let's continue forward. However, we can't let the three Yin Yang Trees be covered in dust."
Xiao Chen had been thinking about these three wondrous trees for a long time. If he transplanted them to Keke's Lost Paradise, that place would definitely be a pure land for cultivating divine trees. He could pick them anytime in the future.
"Brat, you really want to sweep them clean."
Outside Sky, Outsider, and Ying Xiong plucked a lot of holy fruits from the third Yin Yang Tree and stored them. After that, Xiao Chen used a mysterious technique to store the three ancient trees into his acupoint space.
It was very thorough, he packed them up and brought them away!
"It seems like the zombies, death knights, and terrifying undead are not the real monarchs. They have a weakness. They are not willing to come in contact with the divine aura. In the past thirty years, they didn't even take a step into this place."
The few of them passed through this divine garden and walked towards the depths of the palace.
Xiao Chen stored the stone statue into his acupoint space. When the rainbow-colored sacred tree continued to fuse with his body …
"You don't want the stone statue to protect you anymore?"
Outsider looked at him in astonishment.
"If I don't have it, the rainbow-colored sacred statue would have already shattered into pieces. I can't always rely on it. I will lose it sooner or later."
Speaking until here, Xiao Chen's entire body flourished with radiance. The twenty-seven swords flew out and formed a rainbow bridge in the sky. It was extremely dazzling.
"Eh? You are able to display such might without relying on the stone statue?"
Outside Sky was deeply astonished. He was someone who knew the ins and outs of Xiao Chen. He understood that Xiao Chen could only display the might of the sword while inside the stone statue.
Outsider was also very astonished, "Even without the stone statue, you can still protect yourself when facing a half-step ancestor."
This was the result of the divinized acupoint. Xiao Chen's control over the sword had become even more proficient. Furthermore, he didn't need the stone statue's power to make the sword wield a terrifying might.
When they walked into the pitch-black main hall again, the auspicious light from before had completely disappeared.
"Tap, tap … …"
In the spacious and dark main hall, only the sound of footsteps could be clearly heard.
Out of everyone's expectation, the rotten corpse, the death knight, and the terrifying undead didn't appear again. The main hall was very peaceful, it seemed like there was no danger.
"Good, let's hurry up and enter the central region as soon as possible."
Ying Xiong really wanted to see what was going on. That was because this place might be that ancestor's palace.
The four of them passed through twenty-three halls in a row and finally approached the central region.
There was actually a burst of light flickering in front of them. It was especially eye-catching in this pitch-black hall.
However, it was also at this moment that the few of them felt danger.
Not long after, a putrid smell wafted over. The rotten corpse was the first to appear. It was as silent as a specter. Corpse water was dripping from its entire body. It was indescribably terrifying.
After that, the death knight wielded the underworld spear and appeared from the darkness. It was ready to charge at them at any time. The corpse aura there soared into the sky like a raging black flame.
Following that, the terrifying undead appeared and stared at them coldly and resentfully.
"Something's wrong. Something's strange."
Outsider reminded them, "Be careful."
"Swish! Swish!
Silently, dozens of black shadows appeared in the twenty-fourth main hall. All of them were shrouded in black fog and were staring at them coldly and mercilessly.
In the pitch-black main hall, one couldn't even see their fingers if they stretched out their hands. Only twenty pairs of eyes were flickering with demonic radiance. That kind of radiance was especially dazzling. It was like a bloodthirsty wolf staring at its prey in the night.
The few of them sucked in a breath of cold air. Unknowingly, they were actually surrounded by so many terrifying figures. This was really not a good thing.
"F * ck! This time, I'm not mistaken. Brother of the same family, are you really among them? "
Ying Xiong pointed at a tall figure shrouded in darkness in front of him.
In this strange main hall, although one couldn't see anything clearly with one's eyes, one could still sense it with their divine sense. It was indeed a powerful demon. It was much stronger than Ying Xiong.
"Boom … …"
That demon crashed over like a mountain. Its huge fist was enough to turn a huge mountain into ashes. It ferociously smashed toward Ying Xiong.
"F * ck! Brother of the same family, you really don't care about feelings. You even attacked a brother of the same family? "
"Bang … …"
Ying Xiong used force to resist force, using violence to counter violence. The violent energy that was enough to shatter the earth blasted out. If the entire main hall wasn't built with special stones, it would probably be turned into ashes in the first moment.
The intense collision caused the entire dark main hall to shake like an earthquake. The frantically shaking Ying Xiong was sent flying back, and that powerful demon was also blasted away.
"Rumble … …"
The Death Knight launched a charge. The Nether Horse leaped, and the Death Spear in its hand overflowed with corpse flames as it swept across the few of them.
"Roar … …"
The terrifying undead let out a roar that originated from the soul. The curse of death descended.
"Pfff … …"
The Nether Flame soared into the sky. A Flame Sovereign King brought along the black Death Nether Flame and rushed over.
"Bang … …"
The heaven and earth shook. A huge Bone Dragon swung its huge tail bone and swept toward the few of them.
"Chi … …"
A Lich Sovereign King with blood and flesh. Its jet-black nails were curved like iron hooks and bird claws as it tore forward.
"Boom … …"
The aura of death pervaded the air. A Sovereign King Nine Headed Demon crushed over like a killing machine. The ghostly aura soared into the sky, causing the entire main hall to shake to the point that it was about to collapse. … …
Over twenty Sovereign King Level terrifying dark creatures were filled with killing intent. Without saying a word, they charged toward the four of them.
The situation was grim to the extreme. So many terrifying experts had gathered together to surround and kill them. It was simply unimaginable.
"Quickly retreat!"
Sky Beyond Heaven shouted.
There was no way they could fight against them. How could the four of them defeat over twenty Sovereign Kings? If they were entangled, they would die without a doubt.
"How the f * ck can there be so many Sovereign Kings?"
Ying Xiong shouted. All of this was inconceivable. The Kings were arrogant. Normally, they would not interact with each other.
The few of them fought in a sorry state. They wanted to break through the obstruction and escape back to the Divine Garden.
However, they were unable to fly out. In just a short moment, the four of them were all heavily injured.
"It's impossible for there to be so many Sovereign Kings … …"
Even though he was heavily injured, Ying Xiong was still muttering. He could not believe it because the number of Sovereign Kings he had seen in the World of Death was only this number. Of course, due to the limitations of the region, it was impossible for him to know everything. However, he felt that it was too absurd for there to be over twenty Sovereign Kings gathered together!
"Bang … …"
Sky Beyond Heaven was attacked by the undead knights and was whipped by the powerful Bone Dragon's tail. Many of the bones in his body were shattered. Blood flowed out from his mouth unceasingly.
"Boom … …"
Ying Xiong was killed by the zombies and his "close brother". He also vomited blood and fell to the ground.
At the same time, Sky Beyond Heaven was sent flying by the Underworld Flame Sovereign. Many of his bones were shattered and he could barely stand up anymore.
Although Xiao Chen's twenty-seven swords were protecting his body, they still could not block the attacks of the experts. His body was already dyed red with blood.
"Plop … …"
He also fell to the ground.
Even if it was an ancestral god, he would probably frown when facing over twenty Sovereign Kings. Not to mention these four people. They were on the verge of death.
"I was too careless!"
Sky Beyond Heaven sighed and said, "I thought they were walking corpses, but it seems like I underestimated them."
Among them, Xiao Chen suffered the heaviest injuries. The rainbow-colored sacred tree in his body could no longer fuse with him. It actually emerged.
Immediately, the rainbow-colored radiance soared into the sky and illuminated the entire hall.
The twenty Sovereign Kings hastily covered their eyes with their raised palms and retreated repeatedly.
"Quick, activate the divine tree and let it shine with divine radiance!"
They did not expect these powerful Sovereign Kings to be so afraid of light.
The four of them used all their divine source energy. Not only did they shine brightly, they also made the sacred tree shine with thousands of auspicious lights.
"Swish … swish … swish …"
All the Sovereign Kings revealed a fearful expression and retreated repeatedly.
"Let's go!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sky Beyond Heaven shouted, "Charge towards the hall with the radiance!"
"Boom … …"
The instant they charged, the twenty Sovereign Kings behind them launched their thunderous attacks.
The four of them felt as if they were struck by lightning. They all vomited blood. The powerful Sky Beyond Heaven, Ying Xiong, and the others had not been injured for many years. Yet, they were injured again and again today.
After all, more than twenty Sovereign Kings working together was something that was rarely seen in history.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen shielded the rainbow-colored sacred tree behind him. Otherwise, his body and soul might have been destroyed.
Although the four of them suffered extremely terrifying injuries, they did not dare to stop for even a moment. They charged forward as if their lives depended on it.
After passing through three halls, they finally arrived at the location of light.
The twenty Sovereign Kings faced the sky and let out a soul roar. They paced back and forth outside. Their corpse aura filled the sky and ghostly figures were everywhere. They were unwilling to leave, causing the entire palace to tremble.
"How can there be so many Sovereign King level existences?"
When they arrived at the front of the Radiant Palace, Ying Xiong was still mumbling to himself as if he was possessed.
"Nothing is impossible!"
Sky Beyond Heaven frowned and said, "Did you guys forget about those stone pillars outside the Heavenly Palace? Dozens of Sovereign Kings were sealed inside. Don't you think those Sovereign Kings looked familiar?"
"That's right, it's them!"
Sky Beyond Heaven also changed color.
"Ah … …"
Ying Xiong cried out in surprise. He revealed a shocked expression and said, "It's true … … it's them. They look exactly the same."
"Weren't they sealed inside the stone pillars? We even dug out the bones of that demon. What happened?"
Xiao Chen raised his doubt.
"It's him, it's that ancestor who did it. He extracted those people's war souls and refined them into slaughter puppets!"
Ying Xiong's complexion was a little pale as he muttered, "This is too inconceivable. Those were more than twenty Sovereign Kings! If they were released outside, they would be able to sweep through everything. "
"Let's not talk about it for now. Let's see what's inside this Radiant Palace first. This is already the central hall."
After Sky Beyond Heaven finished speaking, he took the lead and walked forward.
The few of them were very nervous. They had even seen more than twenty Sovereign Kings. What kind of terrifying scene would there be here?
From the outside, the radiance of the main hall soared into the sky. The grey mist had been cleanly dispersed. The radiance emitted by the main hall was like a blood pillar that reached the sky.
That's right, it was actually a blood red radiance!
The few of them advanced with extreme vigilance. However, they did not encounter any danger as they smoothly entered the Radiant Palace.
The scene in front of them gave them a huge shock. There was a pool of fresh blood on the reddish-brown floor. It was very eye-catching. There were also three broken swords at the side. They were stained with a lot of blood.
The blood did not coagulate and the radiance soared into the sky. It was as if the murder had happened not long ago.
However, the few of them quickly rejected this conjecture. No matter how they looked at it, the aura of this hall was like no one had entered or exited it for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
They were Sovereign King level experts. Naturally, they could deduce the truth from the environment.
The blood that had not dried for thousands of years, even tens of thousands of years, was as fresh as if it had just been sprayed out. What was even more unimaginable was that the light from the pool of blood actually shot up into the sky, breaking through the obstruction of the gray mist.
What kind of mighty power was this? It was simply unimaginable!
When their gazes landed on the broken sword, the expressions of Xiao Chen, Sky Beyond Heaven, and Human Outsider almost froze. That was actually an ancient sword that was exactly the same as the battle sword that Xiao Chen wielded!
It actually had the power to break a battle sword. All of this was too terrifying. A half-step ancestor would definitely not be able to do it.
"Here … there is a book."
Ying Xiong was very thick-skinned. He had already walked to the other side and picked up a book from the ground. However, he had only flipped it open for a while when his complexion turned pale and unsightly.
Xiao Chen was closer to him. He received the book and took a look.
The words "Doomsday Prophecy" were written on the book. It was clearly written: "I have already foreseen your arrival thirty thousand years later. Everything that happened is within my expectations …"
From the moment they entered the Heavenly Palace, everything that had happened was recorded in the book.
When he saw a certain sentence, Xiao Chen's complexion also turned pale like Ying Xiong's. He felt his hair stand on end.
"Seven of you came in at the same time. Only one of you survived …"
How could there be seven of them? Where were the other three?
