Jun Wu Xie and the others cautiously approached the village.
The closer they were to the village, the thicker the death energy.
When they approached the village entrance, the thick death energy permeated the air, greatly affecting one's life essence.
Jun Wu Xie's physical body was extremely strong, and his life essence was as vigorous as a dragon's, so he did not feel much discomfort.
Shangguan Wan Wan's realm was high, and her life essence was not weak either, so she could resist this death energy.
However, Lilia was different. Her life essence was the weakest among them.
In the face of this death energy, she could clearly feel her life essence being affected and slowly draining away.
"Lilia, step back."
Jun Wu Xie saw her pale face and could not help but say.
Lilia did not persist. She stepped back and waited until her life essence was no longer draining away before stopping.
At this moment, two stone coffins erected at the entrance of the village were opened from the inside with a boom.
Two people in broken armor walked out. Their faces were pale, and their eyes were cold.
They raised the spears in their hands, pointed forward, and said emotionlessly, "Strangers do not enter!"
"Roar!"
Just as they finished speaking, Jun Wu Xie and Shangguan Wan Wan did not have time to respond.
Suddenly, a violent roar came from the village.
It came from dozens of stone coffins placed under a towering ancient tree in the village!
Those stone coffins rumbled and shook. The surface of the stone coffins was wrapped with pitch-black iron chains, which clanged and lit up with strange runes.
"Leave quickly, or you will die without a doubt!"
The two guards at the entrance of the village said coldly.
Jun Wu Xie's eyelids twitched, and he stared at the village.
What kind of village was this?
They were about to retreat.
A gray palm with monstrous death energy appeared out of thin air above the ancient tree in the village.
Gray runes fell from the palm, condensing into an array diagram, and shook downward.
There was a buzzing sound.
The whole ground shook a few times.
In an instant, the shaking stone coffins calmed down, and the roaring inside gradually stopped.
"Oh, after so many years, I did not expect a stranger to come to the burial ground of my clan."
An old voice came from the village.
Then, an old man and two middle-aged men walked out of a coffin-like house.
Their clothes were made of coarse cloth. They had been washed until they were bleached, but they were not damaged.
Regardless of whether it was the old man or the two middle-aged men, their faces were somewhat pale. It was the kind of paleness that made one look like a dead person.
As soon as they appeared, a strong aura of death surged into the sky like an ocean, covering the sky.
However, in this aura of death, Jun Wu Xie sensed a wisp of rich and pure vitality.
"Senior, are you from the Burial Race?"
Jun Wu Xie asked in shock.
The three people who appeared were extremely powerful and unfathomable.
If they wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as flipping their hands.
However, he did not sense any killing intent or hostility from them.
"Little brother, you even know about the Burial Race?"
The old man and two middle-aged men appeared in front of Jun Wu Xie and Shangguan Wanwan in a flash.
A thick, suffocating aura of death rushed toward them.
However, they immediately restrained themselves.
Jun Wu Xie and Shangguan Wanwan's suffocation instantly disappeared. Their expressions were not very good.
These three people were too terrifying.
Just the aura of death that they naturally emitted was enough to suffocate them.
What kind of powerhouses were they?
"Senior, didn't you say that you were from the Burial Race?" Jun Wu Xie shrugged and said, "I didn't know about the Burial Race before. May I ask senior, what kind of race is your Burial Race?"
"A race between the living and the dead." The old man answered casually. Then, he said, "When anything reaches the extreme, it is possible to reverse. Little brother, have you ever heard that the extreme of life is death, and the extreme of death is life? Our Burial Race lives toward death. "
As soon as he finished speaking.
In the village, above the ancient tree, a gray vortex suddenly appeared.
A bloody corpse fell out of the whirlpool and crashed to the ground.
When Jun Wu Xie and Shangguan Wanwan saw this scene, their pupils constricted.
Immediately after, a few Burial Race creatures in the village carried a stone coffin to the tree. They put the bloody corpse into the coffin, wrapped the coffin with black iron chains, and finally placed the coffin under the tree.
"That is …"
Jun Wu Xie pointed at the vortex on the ancient tree in the village.
"What is that? In the future, if little brother can grow to that level, you will naturally understand." The old man patted Jun Wu Xie's shoulder and said, "This old man has high hopes for you. Those who can survive the Great Solar Fire are definitely not ordinary people."
As soon as these words came out, Jun Wu Xie and Shangguan Wanwan both revealed shocked expressions.
Jun Wu Xie was shocked. How did this Burial Race old man know that he had survived the Great Solar Fire?
Shangguan Wanwan was shocked that this little man could actually survive the Great Solar Fire!
How terrifying was the Great Solar Fire?
The Tribulation of Lust had already made her and Mu Xuelan helpless, let alone the three disasters.
Of the three disasters, the Great Solar Fire could be said to be the most terrifying!
Mu Xuelan, who was in Jun Wu Xie's arms, was also in disbelief.
This shameless thief really made people have a whole new level of respect for him.
"Little brother, it is fate that you can come here." The old man looked at Mu Xuelan in his arms and said, "Your female companion's soul origin is injured. If it is not repaired in time, when the Sage Sect's great calamity in the future, I'm afraid that she will be reduced to ashes."
"Senior, please guide me!"
When Jun Wu Xie heard the old man's words, his first reaction was that this old man was unfathomable. Perhaps he had a way to help Mu Xuelan!
"If you go west, you will see a city called the City of Burial. That was once the abandoned land of my Burial Race. After passing through that city and continuing west, you will see a black mountain. "
"Senior, are you saying that there is something on that black mountain that can save my female companion?"
"That's right." The old man nodded and said, "That mountain is called the Soul Refining Mountain. It can gather souls and refine them into Spiritual Marrow Liquid. The Spiritual Marrow Liquid can nourish and repair your female companion's soul."
"Thank you, senior!"
Jun Wu Xie was surprised and delighted. The guidance given by this old man of the Burial Race was too useful.
Before this, he didn't know where to find the Spiritual Marrow Liquid. Now that he had the precise location, the only thing left was how to get it.
"Here is a Soul Protection Talisman. Take it." The old man handed over a yellowed ancient talisman and said, "The peak of the Soul Refining Mountain is filled with the power of soul refining, and the Spiritual Marrow Liquid is at the highest point of the mountain. The closer you are to the peak, the more your soul will suffer from the pain of soul refining. Almost no one in the world can endure that kind of torture. This talisman can protect your soul and reduce the pain of soul refining. "
"Senior, I will remember your kindness. If there is a chance in the future, I will repay you!"
"What's there to repay? This old man has said that little brother is fated with my clan. You will understand in the future."
Jun Wu Xie didn't think too much and prepared to leave.
After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped and said, "Junior has one more thing to ask senior for advice. How can we leave this secret realm and return to the outside world? "
"In the west, you will reach the Soul Refining Mountain and continue to walk forward. You will eventually see a huge ancient city called Secluded Passage City. You will find a way to leave in that city."
"Senior, then this junior will take his leave!"
Jun Wu Xie and Shangguan Wanwan left.
Lilia was waiting for them in front. The four of them went back the way they came and soon disappeared from sight.
"Great Elder, why did you let him go to Secluded Passage City?"
The old man glanced at the two middle-aged men and said meaningfully, "Although they will naturally be driven out of this world after staying for a certain period of time, leaving Secluded Passage City is the path he should take. He needs to be contaminated by the power of the Wheel of World."
"Isn't it too early? His current realm is too low. I'm afraid he can't bear it."
"It's not early. He is about to step into the Grandmaster Realm and condense the Wheel of Life. His life source has already been contaminated with a lot of the power of darkness. Eliminating it as soon as possible is the right choice."
"Hey, is he really the person chosen by His Majesty?"
"Whether he is or not, I believe His Majesty must have made arrangements."
"I really hope that there will be a day when we can go back and end that endless nightmare …"
"Yes, that day will definitely come!"
