C2323 The Lord of Darkness
After entering the Gate of Void, a gust of dark wind blew at them. It was not a threat, but it could make those who did not cultivate the Path of Darkness feel slightly uncomfortable!
However, Su Bai had the physique of an Immortal Venerable, so these dark wind couldn't make him feel any discomfort.
However, what surprised Su Bai was that Bai Lan didn't seem to be affected by the dark wind at all. This made Su Bai feel a little puzzled.
At the same time, Su Bai looked at Bai Lan with a strange expression.
However, since the latter was the senior brother of Zuoqiu Yi Ren, and the Green Heaven Dao Sect had helped her before, it was inconvenient for Su Bai to use the Spiritual Sense to investigate Bai Lan.
But this time, Su Bai was secretly wary of Bai Lan.
Of course, it was only that tiny bit.
Even if there was something wrong with Bai Lan, with his strength, he wouldn't be able to pose any threat to Su Bai.
After passing through the Gate of Void, they could see a huge stone statue that was only a hundred thousand feet tall in front of them. Without the cover of the fog, the entire stone statue was fully presented in front of them.
This huge stone statue gave everyone a strong sense of oppression.
Below the stone statue was a small thatched cottage. Outside the thatched cottage stood a skeleton that did not seem to be a threat. It stood in a standing position and looked into the distance.
The gazes of everyone else immediately landed on the tall stone statue. After all, the strong aura of the origin of darkness originated from this tall stone statue.
Su Bai's gaze immediately landed on the skeleton that was standing in a standing position.
There was no other reason. This skeleton was about 30 to 40 meters tall, much taller than a normal human skeleton. It was exactly the same as the remains of Radiance Immortal Venerable!
However, the skeleton of Radiance Immortal Venerable was emitting a golden light. On top of the skeleton, there was a dark color that was caused by the erosion of the energy.
At this moment, Su Bai could determine that this skeleton was definitely the Dark Demon Venerable!
However, for some reason, the body of the Dark Demon Venerable was unable to be preserved after its death.
When they were a few hundred meters away from the huge statue, they stopped moving. To be precise, Bai Lan didn't dare to get any closer.
He stood at the front of the group and was the first to stop.
Their eyes were filled with deep respect when they looked at the giant statue.
Only Su Bai remained vigilant of the remains of the Dark Demon Venerable.
Xia Qianyu also discovered where Su Bai was looking. Hence, she also stared at the remains of the Darkness Demon Venerable. Immediately, a surprised expression surfaced in her eyes.
Back in the Time Gourd, Su Bai had brought the remains of Radiance Immortal Venerable into the Time Gourd. Xia Qianyu and Luo Poria God had seen it before.
Therefore, Xia Qianyu had also discovered the similarities between this skeleton and Radiance Immortal Venerable's remains.
"This is..."
Upon hearing this, Su Bai turned around and glanced at Xia Qianyu.
It was probably because of Xia Qianyu's voice that the others followed Xia Qianyu's gaze and looked at the skeleton.
Only Bai Lan was still staring at the huge stone statue.
Su Bai said, "This is the skeleton of the Dark Demon Venerable."
Regarding this point, Su Bai had already confirmed it.
After refining the physique of Radiance Immortal Venerable, he could sense some of the karma of Radiance Immortal Venerable that had yet to be completely extinguished. Between these karma and the skeleton of this dark demon Venerable... There is some subtle connection.0
From this, one could easily tell that the skeleton in front of them was the remains of the Darkness Demon Venerate!
The moment Su Bai's voice sounded, even Bai Lan had no choice but to shift his gaze away from the enormous stone statue. Immediately, he glanced at the skeleton standing outside the thatched hut below. A trace of surprise surfaced in his eyes. Soon after, a mocking voice was emitted.
"The Dark Demon Venerable was an Immortal Venerable after all. A million years ago... He is also the absolute overlord of the starry sky. How can his corpse look so ordinary?" Bai Lan gave Su Bai a disdainful glance, then looked at the giant stone statue.
"This stone statue contains the mighty power of a Dark Demon Venerable. This is the manifestation of a Dark Demon Venerable after his death!"
Hearing this, Su Bai couldn't be bothered to look at him anymore. Since he wanted to think this way, he might as well do so! Anyway, it had nothing to do with his pain and itch.
As for why the skeleton of the Dark Demon Venerable didn't have any powerful Qi after its death, and why it was labeled as an ordinary skeleton, Su Bai already had an answer in his heart at this moment.
The moment he got close to the skeleton, Su Bai found the reason.
Why did the Dark Demon Venerable forget about it?
After defeating Radiance Immortal Venerable and suffering severe injuries, he stripped Radiance Immortal Venerable of the source of light in his body. Furthermore, he tried to refine the light source, but failed to resolve the conflict between light and darkness. In the end, he suffered a backlash and died.
If the Darkness Demon Supremacy was at his peak state and did this, even if he was unable to refine these two types of Origins into his body, he would definitely not have suffered such a severe backlash and ended up dying in the end.
However, the reason of the Darkness Demon Supremacy had long been devoured by the Darkness Origin.
This was the reason why he had such a miserable ending.
As a result, after the Demon Sovereign of Darkness died, he stood there alone, looking in an unknown direction. Perhaps, at the final moment of his death, he had regained his rationality.
However, it was too late. Everything about the Dark Demon Venerable had been devoured by the darkness, including his Immortal Venerable physique.
This was also the reason why the current Dark Demon Venerable's skeleton looked so ordinary!
In fact, it was no longer an easy task for the Dark Demon Venerable skeleton to remain intact after being devoured by the Darkness Origin Source.
Just as Su Bai thought this through, the needle of the Dark Compass in Zuoqiu Yi Ren's hand suddenly began to fluctuate violently.
The buzzing sound of the needle echoed in everyone's ears.
Bai Lan's gaze was the first to look in the direction of the Dark Compass.
"It's the Origin of Darkness! I knew it! How could the Darkness Origin be taken away by humans?!"
Bai Lan's expression was excited. Immediately, he stared at Su Bai with a questioning gaze. After which, he took a step forward and headed towards the enormous stone statue. It seemed like the Darkness Origin was determined to obtain it.
"Senior brother!"
Zuoqiu Yi Ren hurriedly called out, but it was too late.
At this moment, even Zuoqiu Yi Ren noticed that something wasn't right, and then she glanced at Su Bai.
Su Bai said, "Your identity as a senior brother might be a little strange."
At the instant Bai Lan's figure flashed towards the enormous stone statue, Su Bai clearly sensed the intense dark aura that emanated from Bai Lan's body.
