In the depths of the earth, the muffled sound made people feel irritated. It was as if a peerless giant was walking, or as if a hundred thousand gods and devils were locked in a dungeon, roaring in unison. The muffled roars came through the sealed room.
"Rumble …"
Countless rat demons were like a flood, rushing over from afar. Pairs of ferocious eyes were all staring at this place.
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. He knew that the horrifying monster deep underground was about to appear.
Hundreds of thousands — perhaps even millions — of Rat Demon shrieked shrilly as they charged at him, not fearing death.
Rat Demons were very ugly, making one's scalp go numb.
If not for the Ancestor God Battle Robes, Xiao Chen would have suffered greatly in this dark underground palace three kilometers underground.
"Bang …"
Several dozen black Rat Demon crashed into Xiao Chen's body. He could clearly hear the clanging sound of their sharp teeth biting the Ancestor God Battle Robes.
"Boom …"
Several dozen Rat Demons piled up and surged over, drowning Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not care. He used his Origin Heavenly Melody to kill a large number of Rat Demons. However, he paid attention to the Ancestor God's white skeleton and the Savage Beast that had yet to show itself.
The Ancestor God's white skeleton was simply too strong. It could clash head-on with the Ancestor God's white skeleton. It moved as fast as lightning, its Divine Energy shaking a vast mountain.
Eight bone spears charged out, possessing unparalleled penetrative power. They successfully blocked the Ancestor God's white skeleton, preventing it from getting close.
Xiao Chen frowned and instantly summoned back his thirteen swords to protect himself. He had to guard against the ferocious beast in the dark. Only fourteen swords remained to attack the Ancestor God's white skeleton.
"Roar …"
Just at this moment, a roar came from deep underground again. This time, it was much louder and clearer.
Although the sound was vast and deafening, it calmed Xiao Chen. That horrifying monster was a half-step Martial Ancestor. It was not as monstrous as the Great Might Underworld King. Perhaps it was stronger than the Asura Half-Step Martial Ancestor or the Skeleton Sovereign King, but not by much.
He used the thirteen swords to open the way, and suddenly rushed forward. Thirteen long rainbows danced in the air, and the blood and flesh of the millions of demon rats flew everywhere. Although many of the black wild rats could be resurrected, but such a terrible lethality shocked them for a short time.
Xiao Chen carved out a bloody path and charged into the depths of the earth. The Ancestor God's white skeleton chased after him, but it was trapped by the fourteen swords and stopped in its tracks.
It was unknown how wide this cave was. Xiao Chen rushed out very far, and then he started to go deeper into the huge cave. He could vaguely hear the sound of surging flood, and at the same time, waves of bitter Baleful Yin Qi rushed over.
Even someone as strong as him at this moment felt waves of chilliness. The evil underground was beyond his imagination. It was truly a place of great evil.
The demonic blood of tens of thousands of demonic rats splattered everywhere. Xiao Chen finally arrived at the deepest part of the cave.
With the help of the glowing crystals around him, he saw a terrifying scene.
A huge yellow river surged forward. The stench of corpses and the aura of death were everywhere. This place was even more terrifying than the world of death. A baleful aura filled the air.
After Xiao Chen arrived here, he was startled by this ocean-like aura of death. He retreated more than ten steps. That was a formless aura that forced him to retreat involuntarily.
"What kind of evil place is this? How can there be such a corpse river?"
Xiao Chen was secretly shocked. That huge yellow river was covered in a corpse aura. It was simply the legendary Yellow Springs.
He was sure that it was a corpse river. It was completely formed by corpse water!
"How can there be such an evil river?"
Xiao Chen was indeed startled. It was hard to imagine what kind of place the source of this river would be.
What he saw in front of him was not inferior to the world of death.
"Roar … …"
A soul-shaking roar came from the upstream of the corpse river. It was not far from here.
Those demon rats did not dare to get too close to this evil yellow river.
Xiao Chen was wearing the Ancestor God's Battle Armor, and he also had a sword in his hand. Hence, he was not afraid. Even if he could not defeat it, he still had the ability to protect himself.
Xiao Chen walked along the shore towards the upstream of the corpse river with large strides. He wanted to see what kind of evil beast it was.
"Boom … …"
Suddenly, there was a huge wave. The yellow corpse water in the corpse river was like a boundless yellow wall as it pressed towards Xiao Chen.
The pungent corpse stench and the suffocating baleful aura made one's soul feel cold.
The seven-colored sacred tree above Xiao Chen's head burst out with radiance. Seven different colored divine lights were like rainbows piercing through the sun. They protected him tightly, blocking a large amount of corpse water.
The surrounding corpse rain poured down. A large amount of smelly yellow water fell down. It corroded dozens of black demonic rats that did not give up. Not even their remains remained. One could imagine how terrifying the corpse water was.
"How can this be? This corpse water can instantly kill the black demonic rats that ate the flesh and blood of the Ancestor God. This … … "
Xiao Chen was horrified. A bad feeling welled up in his heart. The end of this corpse river was definitely an unimaginable place.
"Roar … …"
The roar shook the sky. The depths of the earth trembled violently. The corpse river roared and surged up boundless huge waves. The vast expanse of yellow water made one's heart palpitate and shiver.
And just at this time, Xiao Chen discovered a huge monster in the corpse river. It was bobbing up and down in the corpse river. A tyrannical aura was being emitted from that place.
"What the hell is that? Come out!"
Xiao Chen shouted from the riverbank.
"Petty and weak lowly creature, you dare to barge into my immortal cave and disturb my cultivation. You are courting death!"
The oppressive voice was like the rumbling of thunder. The corpse river was surging violently along with it.
A huge monster revealed its true body from the yellow corpse water. It was several tens of meters tall and looked very sinister.
This was a human-bodied monster with the head of a rat. It had the body of a human and the head of a rat. It was like a small mountain as it stood tall in the corpse river.
"Rumble … …"
The sound of iron chains shaking could be heard. As it floated to the surface of the water, one could clearly see that huge blood-red iron chains were tied around its body, imprisoning its physical body.
Could it be locked in this place by someone? Xiao Chen was astonished. Who exactly was it that locked a half-step Martial Ancestor monster in the corpse river?
"You … … seem to be an expert. It has been a long time since I tasted the hot-bloodedness of an expert. Today, you delivered yourself to me. I will give you a quick death."
The huge monster in the corpse river looked down at Xiao Chen. It was like everything was under its control. The rat head looked very sinister and scary.
"What big words! I thought it was some Savage Beast. Unexpectedly, it is just a rat. Your eyes are really as good as the legends say."
"What? What are you talking about?"
The huge monster stood in the corpse river and roared. The sound caused the ground above to tremble. It was easy to imagine how horrifying the power contained in this fellow's body was.
"I said you are short-sighted."
Xiao Chen replied casually. However, the more he did so, the more furious this monster was.
"Pu … …"
It opened its mouth and spat out a large amount of yellow light. A disgusting stench assaulted Xiao Chen's nose. Even someone as strong as Xiao Chen felt dizzy. However, he soon woke up.
Xiao Chen's body gave off a bright light as he shouted, shattering the yellow light in the air. A large amount of corpse water fell down.
That was the essence of the corpse river, the evil water refined by the monster. When it landed on the ground, it even corroded the rocks.
"Do you think that you are great just because you are big?"
Xiao Chen smiled coldly and said, "Someone locked you here. Why are you not obediently passing your days? Are you trying to force me to kill you?"
"Someone locked me here?"
When the monster heard this, it laughed loudly. A ferocious light appeared in its rat eyes, making it look incredibly sinister. It said, "Sorry to disappoint you. It is not someone else who locked me here. Instead, it is me who bound myself here for the sake of tempering my body with the corpse river."
"Bang … …"
At this point, a wave dozens of meters tall surged up in the corpse river. A huge scarlet chain as thick as a water tank broke apart and swept towards Xiao Chen.
When such a huge chain swept over, it gave off a ghostly wail. Space shattered, and a black hole appeared. It was very horrifying.
The chain was like a huge scarlet flood dragon writhing in the corpse river. Nothing could block it as it passed.
A light flashed, and Xiao Chen moved three hundred meters away, dodging this attack.
Just at this moment, a world-shaking sound rang out. Ten-odd huge scarlet chains all broke. They were like venomous dragons soaring through the sky, all of them piercing towards Xiao Chen at the same time.
The thirteen swords around Xiao Chen all soared into the sky, turning into resplendent rainbows as they chopped down in the air.
Clanging sounds were deafening. Ten-odd chains as thick as a water tank broke and fell to the ground.
"Good sword! That is mine!"
The huge monster revealed a greedy look in its eyes. It stirred up boundless waves as it walked out of the corpse river.
Its true body inspired fear. It was very similar to the white bones of the Ancestor God that Xiao Chen saw earlier. On both sides of its humanoid body were four pale white bone spears that looked like spider legs. At the same time, its rat tail was curved and pointed at the sky. At the end of the tail was a sharp bone spike, like the tail of a scorpion.
"It looks like you not only ate the corpse of the otherworldly Ancestor God but also learned some techniques and gained a lot of benefits."
Xiao Chen looked quietly at this huge monster.
"The benefits I gained far surpass your imagination. Do you know where the source of this corpse river is? Oh, there is no need to tell a dead person. Even if you know now, it is too late. Your sharp sword is mine, and your flesh is mine as well! "
The monster looked down at Xiao Chen and revealed a sinister smile. Then, its body quickly shrank to the height of a normal human.
"You don't like to hear me call you a rat? Will you be happy if I call you a toad?"
Xiao Chen mercilessly countered, "You are looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. Do you think that you are an Ancestor God and can eat me whenever you want?"
Although Xiao Chen said that, he was on high alert. This monster was definitely a strong half-step Ancestor. Furthermore, it seemed to have grasped the techniques of the otherworldly Ancestor Gods. It would probably be very dangerous.
"You are seeking death!"
The monster shouted coldly when it heard that. Then, it vanished from its original spot. After that, Xiao Chen felt an intense danger signal from behind him.
He did not even turn his head and kicked backward. At the same time, the thirteen swords swooped down and chopped behind him.
"Whoosh …"
An extremely dangerous fluctuation brushed past Xiao Chen and went far away in an instant.
The monster reappeared at the place where it was standing earlier.
This startled Xiao Chen. This monster was indeed terrifying. With such a fast speed, it was probably not any weaker than his Octadic Extreme Speed.
"You are indeed an expert. This kind of flesh is my favorite!"
After saying this, the monster disappeared again.
"Dang …"
More than ten swords soared into the sky and chopped at the void, giving off a metallic sound.
The sound of the air being pierced resounded unceasingly. That monster revealed itself. It was actually using the bone spears on both sides of its body and the tail hook on its back to block the swords. Even though the bone spears and the tail hook kept on cracking and were almost chopped in half, there would be a flash of bloody light every time the cracks appeared.
"Undying Body!"
Xiao Chen frowned. This guy ate the flesh of an Ancestor God and obtained an undying body. Even the bone spears and the scorpion tail had this kind of strange ability. It was very troublesome.
"Chi! Chi!
Chi! "The sound of the air being pierced resounded. Even though the monster was surrounded by the sword formation, it actually took the stance of a life and death struggle at this moment. It swooped down. Three swords hacked at its body, but it still paid no attention to them. When it got close to Xiao Chen, the four bone spears on both sides of its body pierced through.
The four white lights were as crafty and ruthless as four venomous snakes. However, they were a million times more terrifying than a venomous snake. These were the deathly bone spears that could definitely pierce through the body of a half-step ancestor!
The monster's body was cut by the sword. Although it bled profusely at first, it quickly healed the moment the sword cut through it. Not even a drop of the blood was wasted as it returned to the monster's body.
It smiled sinisterly. With an undying body, it was already in an invincible position. It ignored Xiao Chen's attack and directly charged forward.
However, just at this moment, Xiao Chen's action made it feel very strange. Unexpectedly, he did not dodge and allowed the four bone spears to pierce through. Both of his hands were almost transparent as they instantly struck out.
"Dang …"
The four bone spears that could pierce through a half-step ancestor's body all struck Xiao Chen's body, giving off a loud sound. However, it did not result in four bloody holes as the monster expected.
The battle armor flickering with a dark light blocked the four bone spears.
The monster cried out in alarm. By the time it retreated, it was already too late. Xiao Chen's jade-like palm sent out four images of the Heavenly Stele, which gave off a rumbling sound as they all struck its chest.
The monster's physical body was indeed strong. Even though it vomited blood, its sternum did not shatter. Only two of its ribs broke. The monster was knocked back.
"The battle armor you are wearing is …"
When the monster landed on the shore of the corpse river, it wiped off the blood at the corner of its mouth. When it saw the Underworld Iron Battle Armor on Xiao Chen, it revealed an astonished expression.
"You want to eat my flesh? Come on."
Xiao Chen held a sword in his hand and controlled the other twelve swords, pointing them at the sinister monster.
The monster's eyes gleamed with a divine light. Without saying a word, it charged forward, leaving behind many afterimages in the sky. Xiao Chen chopped down with his sword.
This monster was very strong. If not for the Ancestor God Battle Armor, the four bone spears would have been indestructible weapons. Even if they were cut by the sword, they would recover in an instant.
Furthermore, the scorpion tail-like bone spikes were incredibly vicious and extremely fast. They attacked from inconceivable angles, brushing past Xiao Chen's throat a few times.
These two people's fighting methods were very special, ferocious and savage. One had the Ancestor God Battle Armor protecting him, and the other had an undying body. They often ignored the other party's attacks and attacked the most vital parts of the other party.
When the monster used its scorpion tail to stab at Xiao Chen's head, it was blocked by the rainbow-colored sacred tree. It felt like it was at a loss. It possessed an undying body, it had recovered from many injuries. However, the other party had a tortoise shell-like battle armor, it was unable to make a move. If this continued, it would not be good.
"Splash … …"
It jumped into the corpse river, but Xiao Chen was not afraid at all. He chased after it. His feet stepped on the corpse water, and the battle armor blocked the intense baleful aura.
The corpse river immediately surged violently. A foul stench surged, the sinister wind howled, and the corpse aura spread everywhere.
The two experts fought in the corpse river.
A terrifying light shot out from the monster's eyes. It was waiting for an opportunity. Although the other party had the terrifying battle armor, if it managed to break through it once, it would be fatal. On the other hand, it had an undying body. Even if it kept getting injured, it would only be weakened once.
"Hehe … … the corpse water will bestow me with endless power!"
The monster stirred up endless waves in the corpse river.
"I'll wait and see, let's see what kind of ability you have."
Xiao Chen replied with a cold smile. However, he was shocked to discover that this monster was indeed becoming more and more tyrannical. Its strength had increased by one level.
"I used the divine chains to lock myself in the corpse river. Do you think I am just for show? The corpse river has endless demonic power. With it, my combat prowess will never dry up."
Speaking until here, the monster licked its lips and revealed its sinister white fangs. It said, "I like the taste of experts' flesh and blood … …"
Just at this time, a whining sound came from the upper reaches of the corpse river. The sound was very mournful. Even Xiao Chen felt his scalp go numb when he heard it.
And after the monster heard this sound, its expression changed in an instant. It seemed to be very frightened as it said, "Lord is going to wake up again. Oh, if I offer your flesh and blood to him, I believe Lord will definitely be very happy."
Xiao Chen was overwhelmed with shock. That kind of whining sound was really very scary. It was as if it resounded in one's heart, causing one's hair to stand on end.
One must know that his current combat prowess was comparable to a half-step ancestor. If it could make him feel such a chill, the source of the corpse water must be a terrifying and ominous place.
"What exactly is in the upper reaches of the corpse river?"
Xiao Chen asked closely.
"Of course it is the supreme lord."
"What kind of demon is he?"
"Demon? Lord is the number one unparalleled expert since ancient times! The entire corpse river appeared because of Lord's existence! "
Xiao Chen was greatly astonished. This corpse river was able to corrode the black demonic rats that had devoured the flesh and blood of the Ancestor God! It was easy to imagine how terrifying the corpse water was. Furthermore, the entire surging corpse river was actually created by that "lord" alone!
"Even the Ancestor God of you humans is nothing in front of Lord!"
From the monster's words, it was not hard to imagine how terrifying the existence at the end of the corpse river was.
Even though the monster's words were exaggerated, it was still worthy of extreme vigilance and attention.
Xiao Chen had a bad feeling in his heart. This underground cave was really too sinister. First, he encountered the corpse of the Ancestor God. Then, he saw this monster that had devoured the flesh and blood of the Ancestor God. Furthermore, there was an unimaginable existence at the end of the unknown corpse river.
