Entering the Sacred Palace
When night fell, Chu Xingyun reached the summit.
A majestic palace appeared in his field of vision. It was cloaked in the sunset glow and hidden in the rolling clouds. Even after thousands of years of decline, it was still difficult to conceal its grandeur.
At the top of the palace hung a plaque. The plaque was already in tatters, and only the two words "Ice Soul" could be seen.
"Ice Soul Sacred Palace?" Whispered Chu Xing Yun in a low voice. Compared to Emperor Xing Jian's palace, the Holy Palace was in a much better condition. The Qi and Qi of the Holy Palace were magnificent. There were so many strong cultivators in the palace.
These experts were like immortal guards, silently guarding the Sacred Palace and never leaving.
Squeak!
At this time, the small soul let out a weak cry, as if urging him. Chu Xingyun smiled bitterly, raised his feet, and pushed open the door of the Sacred Palace.
As the door opened, a vast aura rushed out. Chu Xingyun had already tightly grasped the Black Hole Epee and was ready to attack at any time to kill the enemy.
But unexpectedly, the Sacred Hall was very quiet, and could even be described as deathly still.
There were many corridors here, but in this vast space, not only was there no one, there were no corpses. It was empty, and there was a sense of eeriness.
Chu Xingyun withdrew his spiritual energy and slowly walked forward.
After thousands of years, the Sacred Palace had completely declined. The bricks were shattered, and the ancient trees were rotting. Occasionally, the night wind would blow by, bringing with it a whining sound, as if lamenting the Sacred Palace's former glory.
He also noticed that there were materials for setting up spiritual arrays everywhere in the Sacred Palace, and there were also many spirit stones, but they had all been abandoned and became useless.
"It seems that this place has also been ransacked." Chu Xingyun carefully looked around, but he did not stop walking. He quickly walked forward, and the small soul in his arms kept blinking, unable to hide the passion in its eyes.
The Sacred Palace was very large, and even with the small soul leading the way, it still took a lot of time.
By the time Chu Xingyun arrived at the depths of the Sacred Hall, the sky had already darkened. A bright moon slowly rose into the sky. The gentle moonlight fell on his bewitching face, causing his eyes to appear even more profound.
At this moment, he stopped and stared straight ahead.
"What an exquisite relief." Chu Xingyun exclaimed in surprise. Right in front of him was a long passageway. The walls on both sides were engraved with carvings of spirit beasts. These spirit beasts were so lifelike that one would be drawn into them with a single glance.
These spirit beast carvings were all ancient divine beasts. There was a True Dragon, an Ancient Phoenix, a Black Tortoise, a White Tiger, and so on. They were all rare supreme spirit beasts that guarded this place with an imposing aura.
At the end of this passageway, there was a strong force spreading out, but the situation inside could not be seen. The light flickered, making people have an inexplicable impulse to step in.
"Lil 'Hun, leave this to me." Chu Xingyun said to Lil 'Hun. Lil' Hun nodded and hid in his sleeve. Its body was very weak now, and it could not continue to attack.
After settling Lil 'Hun, Chu Xingyun stepped into the passageway. In an instant, he felt a flash of light in front of him, as if he had entered a mysterious world. This place was like a wild and ancient place, filled with a violent aura.
Boom!
The wall in front of Chu Xingyun shattered. Gravel shot out and made a series of air-piercing sounds. Suddenly, two huge figures appeared and blocked the path ahead.
These two figures were both spirit beasts with terrifying power. They directly locked onto Chu Xingyun's body.
One of them was an ancient fierce beast, Qiong Qi. Its body was like a tiger, with sharp fur all over its body. It had a pair of wings on its back, and when its mouth opened and closed, it spat out scorching flames. Its momentum was extremely terrifying.
The other one was a giant one-horned ape. It looked like a violent ancient ape, but with a single horn on its head. Its body was full of resentment, as if it was the incarnation of death. Its violent claws were like daggers, easily tearing rocks apart.
When these two spirit beasts appeared, they did not hesitate at all and pounced on Chu Xingyun. Qiong Qi spat out flames, while the giant ape waved its sharp claws. The fluctuations caused the entire passageway to tremble.
Qiong Qi's speed was astonishing. It was the first to arrive in front of Chu Xingyun. Its flames burned everything into ashes.
Chu Xingyun held the Black Hole Heavy Sword tightly, and a terrifying aura of disaster circulated around his body. When he stepped out, the space shook, and the pitch-black sword light dimmed the moonlight.
The Black Hole Heavy Sword was not afraid of the flames. It slashed out horizontally, and the terrifying destructive sword light caused Qiong Qi to reveal a terrified expression. Its body was covered in flames, and it quickly retreated.
However, Chu Xingyun seemed to have seen through its thoughts. He stepped out with the Empty God Flash Step, and a purple light flashed. His figure disappeared from the space, and when he reappeared, the pitch-black sword that represented destruction had already descended on Qiong Qi's head.
Boom!
The Black Hole Heavy Sword smashed down, and the space shook even more violently. Qiong Qi's head was smashed into pieces, and a scorching flame exploded, covering the entire passageway and turning it into a terrifying fiery hell.
Chu Xingyun moved his feet again and retreated out of the passageway. There was no joy on his face, and his eyes flickered as if he was thinking about something.
Just then, the flames suddenly exploded, and a pair of terrifying beast claws grabbed forward. In an instant, it had descended in front of Chu Xingyun, wanting to grab Chu Xingyun's tiny body and tear it apart.
"You're courting death!" Chu Xingyun shouted coldly. His body was already covered in grayish black patterns, and a disastrous aura surged out. When it came into contact with the terrifying beast claws, Chu Xingyun swung his sword backwards, and slashed upwards.
Another muffled sound was heard.
The sword pressure released by the Black Hole Heavy Sword had extinguished the flames. The heavy sword did not have a sharp edge, but it contained a shocking amount of power. After crushing the beast claws, it forcefully slashed into the ancient ape's chest.
A heavy breath came out of the ancient ape's mouth. Its huge eyes stared at Chu Xingyun, revealing an ancient evil aura. Its heart was beating like a drum, thumping loudly.
The Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet on Chu Xingyun's right arm flowed with light crazily. The power of one hundred and twenty thousand elephants swept out, and a muffled sound was heard continuously. Then, Chu Xingyun suddenly exerted his strength, and the Black Hole Heavy Sword pierced forward again, shattering the ancient ape's internal organs.
Roar!
The ancient ape let out a sorrowful roar, and its eyes were red. It waved its arms crazily, as if it was making a final struggle. But in the end, it was still unable to pose any threat to Chu Xingyun. Its body trembled, and it fell to the ground powerlessly.
After the two spiritual beasts died, the space returned to silence. Chu Xingyun's face was as calm as an ancient well, and there was no expression on his face. He stepped into the passage.
This time, no spiritual beasts appeared. Other than Chu Xingyun's footsteps, there was no other sound.
When he came to the end of the passage, there was the sound of flowing water. Chu Xingyun looked towards the source of the sound, and he saw a blood pool.
The blood pool was not big, only three meters wide. The water in the pool was dark red, like boiling blood. The blood pool seemed to have sensed Chu Xingyun's presence, and the blood in the pool started to boil, making people feel the mysterious power hidden in the blood. The scene was very shocking.
At the same time, Chu Xingyun also noticed that behind the blood pool, there was a huge statue.
The statue was of a handsome middle-aged man, wearing light armor and carrying a halberd on his back. Although it was only a stone statue, it perfectly reflected this person's extraordinary temperament. He looked down on the world, and he was fearless, just like a real god.
"The person carved on the statue should be the Master of the Divine Temple." Chu Xingyun's gaze moved, and he carefully looked at the statue.
