The Wordless Heavenly Stele was as large as a mountain, towering into the sky. Scarlet lightning lingered around it, and countless corpses of gods and demons fell continuously.
This was a true forbidden land. No one could approach it. Xiao Chen and the others advanced with great difficulty. Finally, they bypassed the forbidden land and arrived at the deepest part of the world of death.
Thunder rumbled behind them, and lightning danced wildly. However, after bypassing the Heavenly Stele and entering this mysterious land, the world seemed to have lost its sound. Everything from earlier vanished.
This was a desolate desert. One could not see the end of it. It was extremely quiet, a huge contrast from earlier.
From time to time, black vortexes would appear in the desert, rising and falling.
In a daze, they seemed to see an indistinct world after the destruction of the world in those whirlpools.
"Hiss …"
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Was this an illusion or something that had happened before?
"Make sure not to touch those whirlpools!"
Xiao Chen vaguely felt danger. Those black whirlpools that undulated occasionally seemed like they could swallow up the entire world, making him feel frightened.
Xiao Chen slowly walked forward, cautiously avoiding the black whirlpools. Meanwhile, Ke opened the Lost Paradise again and sent everyone in.
"What is that?"
In the depths of the desert ahead, there were many illusory worlds. They were independent of each other and seemed to be real.
"A world in a grain of sand, a heaven in a blade of grass. Could this be a miniature version of the real world?"
Those illusory worlds were like lamps that flickered with gentle light. They didn't look like just a ball of light, but they really reflected the various scenes of the world.
"What exactly is going on?"
In the Lost Paradise, the Lunhui King felt very confused.
"That is the projection of the great world."
At this moment, an old voice suddenly rang out, causing everyone to be taken aback.
The sudden appearance of a voice in the originally deathly silent world was very strange. Everyone looked around but did not discover anything.
"Are you saying that is the projection of the real world?"
Xiao Chen asked, wanting to converse with that voice.
The aged voice did not avoid it and continued to reply, "Not exactly. It is the projection of the world that is about to be destroyed. You can understand it as the final radiance of the world."
"In that case, those black whirlpools that we saw earlier are the projection of the world after it is completely destroyed?"
Just at this moment, Ke let out such a soft voice.
"What a smart fellow. You thought of it immediately."
The old voice confirmed Ke's guess.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. There were illusory worlds within those black vortexes. They had actually existed before. Didn't that mean that many worlds had been destroyed?
"There are no immortal dead, and there are no immortal worlds. Everything in the world, every blade of grass and every tree, has an end. There are no exceptions, and there is no escape."
The old voice calmly said all of this.
"Who are you?"
Tenax asked.
"I am also one of the plants and trees in this world, and my life is about to reach its end."
"Can we meet with Senior?"
Qin Guangwang asked respectfully.
"Why not? I'm sure you'll see me soon."
Then, the voice became quiet and no longer spoke.
The Death World was once the center of the myriad of worlds. It would not be strange if there was a projection of the desolate world in the deepest part of the Death World. Xiao Chen and the others cautiously advanced.
Right in front of them, the desolate Gobi Desert finally showed signs of life, and a touch of green appeared on the horizon.
This was a desolate divine garden. Many divine trees were planted inside, and many branches were laden with fruits.
They could clearly see that there were many huge old trees in the dilapidated divine garden. They had withered for countless years, but they still hadn't fallen. They were as vigorous as young dragons.
"This is the divine garden of the past. Many divine trees withered and flourished again. The old trees died, and the seeds sprouted. Who knows how many years they have been passed down. However, due to the suppression of the Myriad Worlds Projection, there were no tree demons that could transform into human form. What a pity."
The old voice resounded once again, as if it was explaining to everyone.
Ke was very happy. It called for everyone's help to transplant all kinds of divine trees into the Lost Paradise.
"Your Lost Paradise has countless strange flowers and trees, do you still need these?"
"Not much, not much, I still need more."
The little thing wished it could bring all the immortal roots in the world into its own garden.
"So delicious … …"
Ke hugged a pile of ginseng fruits and ate them happily.
After bidding farewell to this desolate divine garden, Xiao Chen and the others continued to advance. The place ahead became desolate again.
"I'm afraid we have already arrived at the deepest part of the Death World."
Just at this time, Xiao Chen's powerful divine sense detected an abnormal aura.
"Could it be that the depths of the Death World is just a desolate place with nothing else?"
Kill Vanquish Wolf asked in confusion.
"You are wrong. Everything ahead will probably give us a big shock."
After Xiao Chen finished saying these, he walked forward.
Just ahead, at the end of the desert, one after another huge passageway stretched across the sky, connecting to an unknown place!
There seemed to be wormholes in the world, they were arranged in a disorderly manner!
It gave people an inconceivable and dreamy feeling. Every huge passageway was emitting the aura of the primordial era.
Xiao Chen extended his divine sense and tried to probe into one of the huge wormholes. However, it was boundless, there was no end to it at all.
"This is … …"
Everyone was very shocked. They didn't know where these passageways that emitted the aura of the primordial era were connected to.
"Could it be a passageway that connects to the myriad worlds?"
Xiao Chen couldn't help but make this kind of association.
"Squeak!"
Ke nodded seriously in the Lost Paradise, expressing its agreement.
Tenax, Kill Vanquish Wolf, and the others also had some doubts.
"Not bad, you guys really made the connection."
Just at this time, that aged voice resounded again.
Everyone was shocked. There was actually such a passageway in the depths of the Death World that connected to the myriad worlds. It was unimaginable.
No wonder there was a legend that if one ventured into the depths of the Death World, they would be able to find the heavenly path and enter the heavenly realm.
Everyone had a lot of questions, they wanted to meet this old man and ask him.
"Senior, please come out and meet us."
Just at this time, even Kill Vanquish Wolf also put on a deadpan expression and saluted towards the void.
"Of course I can meet you. However, can you please lift your precious foot first … …"
Hearing this voice, Kill Vanquish Wolf jumped up high as if he was stung by a scorpion. He jumped up and down and scuttled out.
Because at this moment, he truly felt where the voice came from. It was right under his feet!
With a rustling sound, the yellow sand flowed and a skeleton rolled out. It was completely snow-white like a jade sculpture.
It was right at the place where Kill Vanquish Wolf was standing just now.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. They were really surprised.
"Aren't you surprised?"
The aged voice came from the snow-white skull. "I've already said that my life has come to an end. How could I still have a body? It's already not bad that I'm left with this skull."
The skull slowly rose and floated in the air. There was a faint light shining in its eye sockets.
"This … … I didn't mean to offend you just now … …"
Kill Vanquish Wolf was a bit apprehensive. He had experienced many things and was most afraid of this kind of ancient antique. Even if only a skull was left, it would definitely have extraordinary divine strength.
"It's fine. I'm not a petty person. Of course, if I were to be petty, others would say that I'm not human."
Everyone didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They felt that this skull was really a bit different.
"Senior, please enlighten us … …"
"I know you have many things to ask me, but unfortunately, I'm also a bit powerless."
The snow-white skull flickered with divine light as it continued, "Strictly speaking, I'm already not the original me. I'm only left with a remnant will. What I know is limited. However, I seem to feel a familiar aura from your bodies. You should have seen another me or two of me."
Xiao Chen and the others were all puzzled. They looked at him doubtfully.
"Before I was destroyed, my soul was torn into pieces. One or two powerful divine souls should have escaped. Now that it's been confirmed, some of you must have seen them."
Everyone was shocked. This antique in front of them might be a super expert who participated in the Great War of the Heavens and Realms billions of years ago. The divine soul that escaped was definitely not ordinary!
Since they had seen it before, it was naturally an acquaintance. Who was it?
"Escaped from the end and started a new beginning … … This is also not bad, even if this' self 'has no more hope."
The snow-white skull carried a trace of gratification. It didn't have any regrets.
However, no matter what, no one knew who his new self was. Xiao Chen and the others earnestly asked him for guidance. Unfortunately, his knowledge was really limited. It was only a remnant will.
"Since senior's' true self 'has already escaped, we won't ask about the things that happened billions of years ago."
Speaking up to here, Xiao Chen brought up some other important issues.
"You are talking about a person called Nuwa? It's not about the immemorial era. Of course I remember … …"
The skull replied.
Xiao Chen was overjoyed. He knew that Nuwa and the other ancestral gods had already entered the depths of the world of death. However, they had lost contact with them. Naturally, he had to ask about it today.
"Senior, please tell us."
"All of you, follow me."
The snow-white skull took the lead and flew forward. It passed through dozens of huge passages that stretched across the blue dome of heaven. It stopped in front of a wormhole that emitted an endless aura of life.
"This was originally a desolate world. She said that she wanted to comprehend the ultimate profundities of the life-connecting force. She chose to create a new world in this world that was approaching the end. It seems like she really succeeded. She brought a large world from the end to the beginning. The boundless aura of life was emitted by her. It's really astonishing. Such a vigorous life force is rarely seen since ancient times."
"Ancestral God Nuwa is in this large world?"
Everyone was very excited. They really wanted to go in.
"I advise you all not to disturb her peaceful cultivation. She won't wake up unless she encounters danger."
Xiao Chen and the others felt slightly relieved. The legendary Ancestral God Nuwa did not disappear. She would return sooner or later.
"Does senior know of a person called Martial Ancestor … …"
"Never heard of him."
Hearing this reply, Xiao Chen immediately frowned. The proud Martial Ancestor said that he wanted to enter the depths of the world of death to do something important. Could it be that he failed?
Since the immemorial era, there were only a few who managed to reach this place. I wonder if the person you are talking about is among them. Can you describe it to me?
Xiao Chen held onto a glimmer of hope. He described every characteristic of the Martial Ancestor.
"So you are talking about him. This is a powerful person that makes people feel uneasy … …"
Being evaluated like this by this old antique, it was easy to imagine how deep the impression the Martial Ancestor left on him was.
"You know about him?"
"Of course I know. This madman … … is too scary."
Xiao Chen and the others looked at each other. They didn't know why this old antique would say that.
"Stone men do not easily shed tears because they have not been deeply hurt … …"
The snow-white skull continued, "Ten thousand years ago, this expert went in and out, pulling out eleven Immemorial Devil Cities one after another. It really made the hearts of all the stone men in this world cold and fearful. He was simply a professional demolisher."
Xiao Chen and the others were dumbfounded. This … … Martial Ancestor was indeed heaven-defying. However, they were not in a position to comment on it. It seemed like they were doing the same thing.
"Cough … …"
Xiao Chen coughed to hide his embarrassment. He said, "I think the Martial Ancestor is not a person who likes to kill the innocent."
"He said it himself. The masters of those Immemorial Demon Cities are already dead. However, it still made this old man feel a chill. He is truly the Emperor of Demolition."
"Martial Ancestor pulled out so many Immemorial Demon Cities. What did he want to do?"
The snow-white skull was talking about the Martial Ancestor. Clearly, it had a different impression of him. It said, "This strong person really makes me feel uneasy. His thoughts and actions are not comparable to those of ordinary people. He is an extremely dangerous person."
Keke's interest was also piqued. She tilted her head and asked in a tender voice, "What exactly did he do?"
"After he pulled out the eleven ghost cities, the first thing he did was … … to light up a world!"
Fainting!
Everyone was stunned. However, they soon thought of something.
"This crazy person wanted to use the eleven ghost cities as a catalyst to sacrifice an entire world. This old man's heart, liver, spleen, and lungs nearly jumped out of my body."
Everyone cursed in their hearts. You are just a skull, how could you have any heart, liver, spleen, and lungs?
"You must know that most of the worlds in the universe are connected to this place through a wormhole. When he sacrificed a world, he might also ignite the other worlds. He is truly a crazy person. His methods are shocking and frightening."
Everyone knew that the Martial Ancestor must have wanted to sacrifice the other world. This was simply too daring.
"Did the Martial Ancestor really do it?
"Fortunately, I stopped him.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They were afraid of hearing the news of the Martial Ancestor's sacrifice. After all, the other world still existed.
"However, I regret advising him."
Speaking up to here, the snow-white skull sighed and said, "This strong man is extremely dangerous. After listening to my analysis, he felt that using the eleven Immemorial Demon Cities as a guide wasn't enough. He actually connected the wormholes of several worlds and sacrificed several desolate worlds to destroy the 'alien world' he spoke of. I really shouldn't have analyzed for him. This heaven-defying guy is terrifying. He dares to think what ordinary people don't dare to think, and he dares to do what ordinary people don't dare to do."
"Did the Martial Ancestor … … really … … do it?"
Everyone's emotions were also fluctuating.
"No, he weighed the pros and cons in the end. After careful analysis, he felt that he might be able to sacrifice the other world, but he wouldn't be able to harm those guys called 'progenitors'. He was afraid that it would alert the enemy, so he put the plan on hold."
"Then what about the Martial Ancestor? Where did he go? What did he do?"
"This dangerous expert sacrificed eleven ancient devil cities, and then started to sacrifice the desolate world to refine himself. He simply turned himself into a divine weapon on the spot, or rather, he turned himself into a heaven-defying battle treasure on the spot. Who cultivates like this? If he is not careful, he might even refine himself into a true saint tool."
While everyone was dumbfounded, a bolt of lightning flashed through Xiao Chen's mind. The Martial Ancestor's path was worth learning from!
"Rumble … …"
Just at this time, the sound of surging flood came from ahead.
"What is that?"
"That is the long river leading to the future."
"The long river of the future?"
Everyone was astonished.
"That's right."
The snow-white skull led the way. In the depths of the desert, a long river was surging and rushing towards a huge stone gate in the sky.
The river was not gloomy, but it was completely different from the Underworld River in the depths of the World of Death. The surging river had a divine radiance flickering in the green.
The splashing waves flickered with seven-colored radiance. No matter how one looked at it, it looked very holy.
It actually came from the desert and flowed towards the sky. There was a huge stone palace there, and the river flowed in through the stone gate.
"The long river of the future only appears for three days in a month. However, I advise you not to be impulsive and take risks. Because even if you reach the future and know a little bit of what will happen, you will not be able to change anything. In the past, only one person who gathered the Oracle Bone Map succeeded in entering and exiting. Without that holy relic, you will not be able to leave. "
The skull advised.
Xiao Chen and the others immediately thought of the master of the Heavenly Palace of Death. He must have gathered all the Oracle Bone Map and successfully followed the river of the future to the world of the future.
"Hey, there is also a huge stone gate at the source of the divine river."
When the group traced the source of the river upstream, they made a new discovery. On the surface of the desert, the surging river flowed out from a huge palace.
"When the river flows back along its original path, it will flow back to the world of the past."
After hearing this news, everyone was very astonished. This divine river was really too special.
And Xiao Chen was even more excited. If they could return to the world of the past from here, would they be able to find the battle swords that were lost in the past?
"Actually, the appearance of the divine river has another purpose. If we can find the legendary death bridge and place it on the river, we will be able to reach the other side of the legend."
Just at this time, Xiao Chen saw the end of the world of death. It was a place of nothingness. Even the specks of primal chaos were evaporated there!
The endless nothingness was connected to an unknown distant area. Divine sense could not reach the end at all. They could only see an incomparably dark moat in front of them.
It really looked like it was cut off by a divine weapon!
"This is the end of the world of death, the other side of the legend …"
Speaking until here, the snow-white skull paused for a long time before continuing, "The other side of the legend is truly awe-inspiring …"
Xiao Chen and the others' attention was drawn to the other side.
"Don't look, staring at it for a long time will not do you any good."
The snow-white skull hurriedly woke them up and said, "I will go and take a look at other places. There are still many important places that I have yet to tell you. How about the Heavenly Stairway …"
