"This is the legendary Soul Slaying Broken Spear. It has a physical form and is formless. It is an evil weapon refined to destroy the soul of an Ancestor God, which is said to be unkillable."
The old goat stared at the corpse for a while and said, "It is extremely vicious and hard to defend against. As long as you get hit, the broken spear will swallow up your soul. You will not even be able to escape."
The dark red broken spear flickered with a strange light, riddling the Ancestor God's corpse with thousands of holes. It was terrifyingly black, like an ordinary person poisoned.
Xiao Chen frowned as he looked at the broken spear stuck in the corpse. He felt a sinister aura that made his soul very uncomfortable.
"Try pulling it out and see."
The old goat stroked his beard, looking like he knew everything.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to grab the broken spear. However, his fingers passed through the broken spear. It clearly looked like a spear, but he could not grab hold of it.
"This is the horror of the broken spear. To an Ancestor God, it has a physical form but is formless. You have already seen it for yourself. Even an Ancestor God's physical body would find it hard to block it. It easily passes through your fingers and attacks the Ancestor God's soul. If you cannot dodge it, it means death!"
Xiao Chen felt fear in his heart. This was a terrifying evil weapon specially refined to kill Ancestor Gods. It was extremely vicious.
"How can I defend against it?"
"Only with a strong enough Divine Sense can we destroy this evil weapon. Otherwise, only death awaits us."
Xiao Chen frowned when he heard what the old goat said. This was simply targeting him. His Spiritual Sense had not reached the Ancestor God Realm yet. If he met such a terrifying enemy, he would die for sure.
"How can there be such an evil weapon? How was it refined? Furthermore, why was it casually tossed here?"
This was Xiao Chen's question.
"It's extremely difficult to refine such an evil weapon. At the very least, the souls of three super Universe Enlightened Ancestral Gods must be fused together and refined for tens of thousands of years before there's a chance of success."
The old goat circled around the corpse and said, "Although it is difficult to refine, it is a terrifying weapon that can destroy the divine soul. Once it succeeds, it can slowly evolve. Every time it devours an enemy, it can strengthen the evil weapon by a little. In the early stages, it is a broken spear that has a form but is formless. In the middle stages, it will become a complete evil spear, gradually transforming into formless and formless. In the end, it will become completely formless and formless. Even the spiritual sense of an Ancestor God would find it difficult to detect it."
As he spoke, the rotting corpses on the ground completely turned to ash and disappeared. Following that, the Soul-Slaying Spear also flashed and disappeared into thin air.
"See? After devouring the enemy's soul, it will automatically return to its owner's side. It has a form but is invisible, so you don't have to worry about others snatching it. "
"Now, even if you attack it with your Spiritual Sense, you still can't make it stay?"
"This is an evil weapon formed from the souls of three super Universe Enlightened Ancestral Gods. Its owner can summon it back with a thought. If you don't want to fight with the enemy, you can't make it stay. Unless your Spiritual Sense is far stronger than its owner's, you can use a sharp attack to break this evil weapon."
"Aren't you the Stone Emperor's elder brother? Why don't you use a sharp attack to shatter this Soul-Slaying Spear?"
"Do you really think that I have nothing better to do? Why would I create enmity for no reason? As long as they don't offend me, they can do whatever they want. However, if they offend me, even if the Heavenly Realm's Stone Sharpening Beast comes, I will smack their buttocks. "
This skinny old man stuck out his goatee and boasted shamelessly. However, after he finished speaking, he still stuck his head out to look left and right. This made Xiao Chen speechless.
The Solar Astral Palace was even hotter. Xiao Chen did not know what material this palace was made of to be able to withstand such high temperatures. The endless palaces were completely sealed off. There were passageways connecting the palaces, making it look like a massive labyrinth.
The cobweb-like passageways connected in all directions, seeming endless. It was easy to get lost in them. This was because the Ancestral Gods' Spiritual Sense was obstructed in this area. They could only extend a limited distance. It was no different from an ordinary person entering a labyrinth.
Furthermore, their Divine Energy was infinitely weakened. They were no different from ordinary cultivators in this place. They could not travel through space at all. The Divine Energy that they could send out was extremely weak.
This was simply turning Ancestral Gods into ordinary cultivators!
After Xiao Chen and the skinny old man walked for about five kilometers, they saw another rotten corpse. This corpse's Spiritual Sense was destroyed, and its body was rotting black. The Soul-Slaying Spear was stabbed into its body. It was another Ancestral God of the Nine Provinces Sect.
This made Xiao Chen furious. He wanted to use the Divine Diagram or the ancient scroll to try and take away the broken spear, but he had some misgivings with the little old man beside him.
"Let's go our separate ways. You should proceed alone. In your words, you are an unparalleled expert. You don't need anyone's help."
Xiao Chen wanted to move alone, but the old goat shamelessly insisted on following him.
"Don't tell me you are from the Nine Provinces Sect? You want to take revenge for them? I advise you to bear with it. Aside from the white-haired man, there is another terrifying person among the six heretics. If you act rashly, you might be killed in both body and soul. You won't even know how you died! "
The little old man glanced at him and warned him.
"Hehe …"
Just at this moment, a cold laugh came from the passageway ahead. "Are there still survivors of the Nine Provinces here? We can take care of them all at once! "
Three of the six experts from the heretics appeared at the corner in front of them. The white-haired Ancestral God and the unidentifiable terrifying figure were not among them. The three of them had sinister smiles on their faces and were about to attack Xiao Chen.
"We are not from the Nine Provinces Sect. Don't misunderstand!"
The skinny little old man explained.
"I know you are not, but it's hard to say for him. Get out of the way first …"
The heretic Ancestral God pressed forward with large strides. He revealed a sinister smile at Xiao Chen and said, "I sensed your hostility just now. No matter who you are, no matter which sect you are from, there is no way you can leave this place today."
"Ah …"
Just at this moment, a miserable shriek was heard. A golden arrow pierced through one of the three Ancestral Gods. The blood of the Ancestral God splattered everywhere.
"Survivors of the Nine Provinces!"
The other two Ancestral Gods shouted angrily. They shot out divine light at the same time, protecting the expert who was shot by the arrow.
In another passageway, a figure flashed by and disappeared around the corner.
"Go!"
The little old man grabbed Xiao Chen and shouted in a low voice. They quickly rushed toward a passageway filled with raging flames.
The three Ancestral Gods did not chase after them. Instead, they rushed toward another passageway, chasing after the person who shot the divine arrow.
"That person helped us out of trouble. We can't just run away like this."
Xiao Chen wanted to stop.
However, the old goat grabbed his arm tightly and quickly rushed far away. They only stopped after passing through a few passageways. He said, "It was so dangerous just now. Every step we took was filled with danger. Those three were only on the surface. That little white-haired Ancestral God and that unfathomable mysterious expert were watching us in the dark. If we had fought them, they would have definitely pounced over and wanted to kill us."
"Aren't you Emperor Stone's elder brother? Why are you afraid of them? "
Xiao Chen shook him off and said, "If that's the case, isn't the person who helped us just now in danger?"
"Even if I'm Emperor Stone's elder brother, I can't just kill people casually …"
The little old man boasted shamelessly.
"No, I have to go back and help that person."
"Don't worry. That person is definitely not in danger. He only shot the arrow to warn us because he discovered the white-haired man and that unfathomable expert. He will definitely be able to escape safely."
"Then let's go our separate ways!"
Xiao Chen really wanted to separate from this little old man. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to use the ancient scroll or the divine diagram. He believed that as long as there was no one beside him, he could use the Pangu Stone Medallion to conceal himself in this Star Palace that could block the Ancestral God's spiritual sense.
However, this little old man was like a dog skin plaster. He shamelessly refused to leave.
Xiao Chen ignored him and advanced alone. Just as he entered another palace, a dazzling divine light swept over. A cultivator that he had never seen before attacked him.
Clearly, after entering this palace, he was surrounded by danger at every step. He was either an ally or a match for him.
"Whoosh …"
Xiao Chen quickly dodged to the side and dodged the divine technique. He used the flesh of a peak Ancestral God to charge over.
"Bang …"
The sound of bones breaking rang out. The sneak attacker vomited blood. Both of his arms were broken. He turned into a beam of light and disappeared from this palace.
"You overestimate yourself!"
The little old man followed Xiao Chen unsteadily. As he looked at that figure, he said, "Even a cabbage like you dares to enter? You are simply seeking death!"
Xiao Chen ignored the little old man and followed the trail of blood. He wanted to try his luck and find that heaven-defying battle treasure.
After chasing for a while, Xiao Chen sensed something strange. After passing through a palace, he felt a Primal Chaos aura in front. The passageway brought him to a mysterious place. There were no buildings before him but a Primal Chaos cave.
"Luck!"
The little old man shouted, "That person earlier was just a small fry on guard. There is probably something mysterious about the Primal Chaos cave ahead. Someone is forcefully opening the seal."
The Primal Chaos cave entrance was hazy and flickered with treasure lights.
Xiao Chen cautiously entered the Primal Chaos cave. The instant he entered, he heard rumbling sounds. Three people were attacking the Primal Chaos cave entrance. As for the person who attacked Xiao Chen earlier, he looked warily at the cave entrance. When he saw Xiao Chen and the little old man enter, he immediately glared.
The three people forcefully opening the seal immediately stopped. One of them was a Third Heaven Ancestor God, and the other was a Fourth Heaven female Ancestor God.
"It's you. We're on the same side."
The old goat walked forward as if he was familiar with them.
The female Ancestor God snorted coldly. She was the female Ancestor God who stood together with the old goat when they first arrived at the Sun Palace. Later on, the old goat made a clean break with her because of his nonsense.
The three people in front stared at the old goat and Xiao Chen with hostile expressions. Especially the injured cultivator, he showed intense hostility towards Xiao Chen.
"It will be very difficult for the three of you to open this seal. The five of us working together should be enough. Otherwise, when the others arrive, you will not be able to obtain anything."
The old goat suggested with a very natural expression.
"Stop hesitating. Otherwise, you will not be able to obtain anything. You should know that even the Stone Corpse and Lotus King are here. There must be countless experts of other realms. We cannot afford to waste time now!"
The old goat urged.
Although the three people in front were unwilling, they felt that the old goat's words made sense. If a few strong people really came, they would not be able to obtain anything. They would only lose their lives.
"Very well, let's work together and quickly break the seal!"
The female Ancestor God made a concession. However, a gleam flashed in her eyes. Clearly, this was just a temporary cooperation. If they really broke the seal, they would not be able to coexist peacefully.
Although the injured cultivator was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept reality. The five of them worked together with all their might and quickly broke the seal.
After passing through the secret door of the seal, divine splendor seeped out. The primal chaos cave was immediately filled with vibrant colors.
An hour later, there was a loud rumble. The primal chaos cave shook violently. The fog churned and waves of treasure light rushed out. Soon after, divine flames surged and dazzled the eyes.
The five of them rushed forward to fight for the treasures.
Amidst the dazzling flames, a stone table collapsed in front of them. Clearly, it was caused by the impact of breaking the seal. Amidst the rubble, a sparkling white jade bottle flickered with light. It was very eye-catching.
The female Ancestor God and the other two fought for the white jade bottle. However, the old goat did not do so. Instead, he walked towards the few rotten arrows in the pile of rubble.
Xiao Chen felt that if he did not use the divine diagram and ancient scroll, he would not be able to win against the three. When he saw the old goat fighting for the rotten arrows, he also grabbed them.
"Brat, you are too blind. You even want to fight with an old man like me …"
The old goat hurriedly grabbed the arrows. However, his position was not as close as Xiao Chen's. He only managed to grab three rotten arrows while Xiao Chen obtained six.
It could be said that the arrows were extremely tattered. They were only made from nine pieces of rotten wood. Some parts of the wood were so rotten that they were about to break.
The other three worked together to snatch the white jade bottle. They curled their lips at the two of them in disdain. At the same time, they heaved a sigh of relief. After all, they were the ones who obtained the precious treasures.
"All the holy items in the world belong to the virtuous."
The female Ancestor God used the old goat's words to remind them, afraid that they would fight over it.
"Yes, that's right. That's the principle. Don't worry, we will not snatch the treasures of our allies."
The old goat nodded repeatedly.
The instant Xiao Chen grabbed the six rotten arrows, he already knew that they were not trash. They were probably even more mysterious and precious than the white jade bottle. He could feel the boundless essence of fire. These rotten arrows contained boundless divine power. The dazzling light at the start might have been emitted by these nine rotten arrows.
"Hehe, how laughable. Treating the bottle containing the treasure as a precious treasure and abandoning the true treasure. How pitiful and laughable …"
Just at this moment, a cold voice rang out. The white-haired Ancestor God from the foreign faction led the other four to block the entrance of the primal chaos cave. Only the unfathomable mysterious expert was nowhere to be seen.
Xiao Chen could not make a true judgment on what realm the white-haired Ancestor God had reached. Clearly, he was blocking the entrance to snatch the treasure.
"What are you saying?"
The female Ancestor God was bewildered. At the same time, she felt uneasy.
"Those nine rotten arrows are the true treasure. The white jade bottle is just a tool to hold them. The arrows used by the Stoneman King are not ordinary treasures. You abandoned the treasure and picked up the trash. Don't you think it's laughable?"
"What?"
The three of them were shocked and embarrassed!
"Hehe …"
The old goat was very pleased with himself. He hugged the three rotten arrows and boasted shamelessly, "Who do you think I am? I have discerning eyes. How could I miss out on such a treasure? All the holy items in the world belong to the virtuous."
The three felt even more ashamed after hearing what he said. After all this time, they were only strong enough to hold a bottle containing a treasure.
"The three of you, don't be anxious. That white jade bottle is not an ordinary item. You should have already sensed it. It can store and seal experts inside …"
The old goat explained to them.
Xiao Chen, who was at the side, was already prepared for battle. The white-haired Ancestor God of the foreign faction blocked the entrance of the primal chaos cave. Clearly, he would not let them off. Furthermore, they had a small conflict before this.
"Unfortunately, you are just treasure diggers. They do not truly belong to you. Just obediently leave the treasure behind."
The white-haired Ancestor God had terrifying strength. His huge body blocked the entrance, and his strong Spiritual Sense immediately sealed off the exit. Clearly, he wanted to kill everyone here.
"None of you can leave. All of you will die!"
The moment he said this, it was clear that he wanted to silence them.
"F * ck, this is not a heaven-defying treasure. You don't have to be like this, right?"
The old goat's beard twitched. His mouth was obnoxious and cheap as he said, "If you want it, just say it. I can give it to you. How would I know if you don't tell me? I will only know once you tell me. I can only give it to you once you tell me. If you really want it, I can really give it to you …"
"Boom …"
The blazing divine flame flickered. The instant the old goat spoke, he grabbed Xiao Chen and combined the nine arrows together. They pierced towards the primal chaos wall at the side. The nine wooden arrows that looked extremely worn-out immediately overflowed with divine flame. They smashed through the primal chaos wall in one go and entered a new passage that connected to the distant palace.
The old goat scampered and ran. Xiao Chen couldn't travel through space in this special palace, so he turned into a beam of light and followed closely behind.
At the same time, the white-haired Ancestor God had already made his move. His white hair fluttered as he instantly pierced through the three Ancestor Gods holding the white jade bottles and tore them into pieces. This was because the three Soul Slaying Spears had already pierced into their backs. They were visible but formless, and they were already killed before they knew it. They didn't have any chance to resist at all!
"How terrifying …"
After sensing everything behind it, the old goat leaped up and led Xiao Chen through this maze-like palace hall to escape.
"Aren't you Emperor Stone's elder brother? Could it be that you are only good at escaping? "
Xiao Chen ridiculed as he ran.
"Emperor Stone's elder brother also has times where he has to run. He doesn't have to fight to the death all the time …"
This old goat's flesh was rotten, but its mouth was not. It was like a live rabbit, rubbing and jumping around.
"Boom …"
Just at this moment, a terrifying divine power fluctuation came from ahead. It made everyone's heart palpitate.
The old goat immediately exclaimed, "This is bad. I just escaped from White Hair, and now there's an even bigger one!"
Xiao Chen wondered if he was really an Ancestor God. Why did he sound like a commoner? "Big guy?" Xiao Chen wondered if he was really an Ancestor God.
Just at this moment, a figure rushed in front of them. The moment he saw Xiao Chen, he fell to the ground. His entire body was covered in blood, and his body was on the verge of collapse. His spiritual sense was extremely weak, and it was being worn away at a terrifying speed. It looked like both his body and soul would be destroyed soon.
"Hurry up and leave …"
But he still reminded Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen dragged him up and followed the old goat into the depths of the maze.
"It's too late. His spiritual sense has already been destroyed. Even if my brother Emperor Stone makes a move, he won't be able to save him."
Hearing the old goat say that, Xiao Chen felt very gloomy.
"Are you really a cultivator from the Nine Prefectures?"
The Ancestor God in Xiao Chen's arms was a bloody mess. It was impossible to tell that he was human. At this moment, his spiritual sense and physical body were crumbling rapidly. His voice was extremely weak.
"Yes, I'm from the Nine Prefectures!"
"I really want to go back to the Nine Prefectures …"
The Ancestor God seemed very sad. He said, "I've already left my homeland for a civilization's history. I've been fighting in the Heavenly Realm without a chance to go back. I hope that I can share the burden of the Nine Prefectures, but we are useless! We can only watch helplessly. Now, almost all the Ancestor Gods who came to the Heavenly Realm have died in battle. They are almost extinct. We are powerless to defend our homeland. I … I really can't accept this! "
Speaking up to this point, the Ancestor God's eyes actually had tears dripping down. But his body was becoming fainter, and his voice was even weaker. He said, "We are useless, but we really tried our best … Almost all of them died in battle … I know, I know that you have tried your best. You have all given your all!"
Xiao Chen did his best to instill divine power into the Ancestor God. He even used his spiritual sense to stabilize the Ancestor God's spiritual sense. He said anxiously, "Don't blame yourself. You have tried your best. You have done what you should … We will not forget you!"
The Ancestor God of the Nine Prefectures, who was badly mutilated and on the verge of collapse, smiled miserably. He said with incomparable sadness, "We couldn't change anything …"
Speaking up to this point, his spiritual sense was infinitely weak. He almost couldn't say anything more. He opened his mouth, and blood dripped down. He lowered his head as if he was looking down at something. His eyes seemed to want to see through the sun, the Heavenly Realm, and the Nine Prefectures …
"I really want to go back to the Nine Prefectures to take a look … to return to my homeland …"
Speaking up to this point, his voice suddenly stopped. His body slowly faded, and his spiritual sense was completely obliterated. Specks of light slowly drifted out from Xiao Chen's hands. This Ancestor God of the Nine Prefectures left the world with an infinite gap.
"Dang …"
A crisp sound rang out in the passageway as a longbow fell to the ground of the Star Palace. It flickered with a bit of splendor, and on it were the last two drops of tears left behind by the Nine Prefectures, carrying traces of blood.
Xiao Chen picked up the longbow and held it firmly in his hand. In a trance, he once again heard a voice filled with infinite yearning, regret, and sadness. It echoed faintly, "I really want to go back to the Nine Prefectures to take a look … to return to my homeland …"
"I will bring you back!"
Xiao Chen felt that his eyes were actually a little moist. This was something that had not happened for many years. Even if he had a heart of stone, he still felt bitter at this moment. He felt suffocated in his heart. He put the longbow away with incomparable solemnity.
"Let him return to his homeland with glory! Use this longbow to shoot nine arrows and kill his enemies. Then, return to the Nine Prefectures to bury the bow! "
The old goat solemnly handed over the three arrows in his hand to Xiao Chen.
"The Ancestor God of the Nine Prefectures … bury the bow of the Nine Prefectures!"
Xiao Chen almost went crazy with hatred. He used all his strength to grab the nine arrows!
