C73 Ancient

The night fell, and the endless sky was filled with stars, as if the eyes were watching everything in the world. Waves of beast roars resounded ceaselessly from afar within the Ferocious Beast Forest. The sound of insects chirping. It was noisy and chaotic, making people feel even livelier than during the day.

Su Chen brought the Rouxue and shuttled through the boundless forest. Tier 4 and Tier 5 Devil Beast constantly appeared, but they were all avoided by Su Chen in a soft voice. Currently, his Spiritual Sense had become incomparably sharp, and he could detect all the subtle movements within a few dozen meters.

After the fierce battle with Undying King and Zither Demon, Su Chen felt that the True Qi in his body had become much stronger. Growing up in a deathmatch was a very good way for a martial artist to advance. He felt that the strength in his body was incomparably majestic, and his precious body was as tough as iron. His body was as light as the wind. Even if he were to fight the Rank Five Devil Beast, he was very confident that he would be able to defeat it.

Su Chen had already stepped into the Profound Rank Spiritual Will Stage with just one foot. As long as his true qi became stronger, he would be able to break through this bottleneck.

To all warriors, the Spiritual Will Stage not only depended on hard cultivation, but also on their cultivation. And it also tests the practitioner's perception. Martial artists with high comprehension ability experienced forty to fifty years to comprehend their thoughts. That was a very normal thing. People with low comprehension ability. Even if he was poor, it would be difficult for him to comprehend his own intent. They could only stay in the late stage of the Treasure Body forever.

However, Su Chen was different. He had an innate advantage. The three remnant souls allowed him to comprehend the true meaning of the sword - a sword without a sword. Therefore, he could reduce the time he spent comprehending the will and break through to the Spiritual Will Stage.

If he could break through to the Spiritual Will Stage just like that, it would definitely shock the entire continent. One should know that the top geniuses of the continent wouldn't be able to break through to the Spiritual Will Stage without spending thirty to forty years, but Su Chen had only started cultivating for less than two months.

After leaping onto a 30 meter tall Towering Ancient Tree, Su Chen sat on the treetop and stroked the fur of the Rouxue with his hand. His mind was filled with countless thoughts. The mark left in his mind by the Devil Sacrificing Platform had really shocked him.

It was a period of an unknown past. It was a terrifying and soul-shaking secret from the ancient era.

Patterns appeared in Su Chen's mind. He felt as if he was in that era. Everything was so real.

The dark clouds in the sky were rolling, like huge Devil Hand dancing, covering the sun. Even during the day, it was hard to see a trace of light. The sky and earth were dim and lightless.

Large swathes of forests withered, and the ground was filled with white bones. There were humans, beasts, and many unknown races. Bones! They covered the ground, and within 500 kilometers of them, they became a sea of bones that was worthy of being called the Bone Sea of Death.

The cold wind howled, and it was mixed with a strange and numbing scream. Although it was only a mark, Su Chen felt his scalp go numb.

At the end of the ocean of bones was a mountain peak that towered into the clouds. Even the ink clouds could only roll and drift at the foot of the mountain. But rather than calling it a mountain, it was more like a huge rock. On the mountain peak, there were no vegetation creatures. There was only a patch of black that people could not see through.

Countless bolts of lightning were roaring in the distance. Occasionally, they could see black demonic shadows drifting about. Su Chen's thoughts slowly drifted towards the hundred thousand meter tall Devil Mountain, and he entered a huge cave.

This cave seemed to have no end. It was completely dark, but when Su Chen found the light... It had already entered an unknown space, a huge lake. The water in the lake was actually blood red. The air was filled with a nose-stinging stench. Those were really fresh blood.

There were thousands of lakes, and each of them was several hundred li wide. No one knew how many creatures had to be killed to obtain so much blood.

No matter how brave Su Chen was, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine when he saw this. After leaving the endless blood lake, there was a palace built entirely from bones. The palace stretched for dozens of miles. It was incomparably magnificent, but it was emitting an incomparably terrifying aura.

"Roar." A terrifying ghost howl was heard from the palace. Su Chen felt a chill run down his spine. Even though this was the second time he saw this scene, he still felt scared. In front of the palace stood a huge stone monument that was 30 meters tall. It was completely black. The three golden words Myriad Soul Cave were engraved on it.

This palace was the Myriad Soul Cave, and countless souls were gathered inside. Su Chen saw countless evil spirits howling in despair inside. Among them, there were even angels from the legends of the west crying. Their wings were broken, and their flesh was torn apart. White bones were exposed, and their beautiful faces became extremely hideous. Their skulls were exposed, and they were filled with black liquid. It was extremely disgusting.

There were also many eastern Immortal God with disheveled hair. They no longer had any holy aura, and their entire bodies were emitting an evil black color. They were roaring madly, and they were filled with endless resentment.

There were even more remnant souls, the legendary beast souls of divine beasts. The terrifying demonic will of the Demon King, the soul fire of the undying race, they all had no self-consciousness. They were all broken souls that were imprisoned in this palace and could not be dispersed for eternity.

Why did thousands of gods and devils fall?!

However, what made Su Chen even more concerned was that right in the center of a huge palace... There was a cylindrical altar with many ancient symbols and mystical patterns carved on it. There was nothing Su Chen could understand. No one knew how much blood had stained the altar. Its entire body was emitting a strong bloody aura, and it smelled extremely fishy.

In a corner of the altar, a three meter tall broken flag was inserted into the ground. The pitch black tattered cloth hung down powerlessly, and there were a few ancient characters written on it. Su Chen couldn't understand it, but a thought rushed into his mind. He could understand that this was the Soul Summoning Flag.

Unfortunately, half of the banner had disappeared. To be precise, it could no longer be used!

Even so, Su Chen's heart was still filled with joy. If the soul flag really existed, there was hope of reviving Yu Yue.

Apart from the Soul Summoning Banner, there was also a black square altar on the blood red altar. Since it was the terrifying Devil Sacrificing Platform. At this moment, there were four skeletons on the devil altar. Su Chen could sense their identities.

One of them was actually the ancestor of the Undying Clan, the Undying Ancestor. Its body was emitting a soft green light, but the soul fire in its two huge eye sockets had already been extinguished.

Among the other three skeletons, there was a white skeleton with twelve pairs of black wings, which was the Devil Refining Angel.

The other one was an immortal wearing a dark blue Daoist robe. There was a Taijitu on its Daoist robe, and it was holding an immortal sword that had been cut in half and lost its luster. It was the Ancient Wind of the Constellation Dao Sovereign.1

The last skeleton was the only incomplete one, and since it only had one left arm. The bone emitted a faint purple light, shining with divine light. Su Chen felt like he had seen it before. This arm bone was very similar to the mysterious arm bone in his right arm. It was a part of the Ancient Devil's skeleton.

Su Chen didn't know these people, nor had he heard of them before. After all, he had only been in the Immortal God Continent for a tenth of his time. However, he could guess that these people would never die there. These people were all extraordinary figures from the ancient times. After all, they could be used as sacrifices with the Undying Ancestor. Their identities were definitely not ordinary.

In front of Devil Sacrificing Platform, there was a purple stone tablet that was also engraved with ancient characters.

"Under the Heavenly Dao, everything is an ant. Those who defy the Heavenly Dao will have their soul destroyed. Those who follow the Heavenly Dao will be as sad as dust. Those who defy the Heaven Dao shall be punished, and their souls shall be sacrificed to the Devil Platform..."

Su Chen felt an inexplicable sense of disgust towards this paragraph, but there was nothing he could do about it. Even an extraordinary figure like the Undying Ancestor had ended up like this. What could he do about it?

Suddenly, a golden light descended from the sky. It broke through the palace and landed on the Devil Sacrificing Platform. The Devil Sacrificing Platform let out a violent vibration, and a blood-red light shot out in all directions. Countless ghosts screamed in agony as they came out from the devil platform.

Su Chen couldn't see the origin of the golden light, because the scene in front of him changed once again, and he arrived in front of an ancient and magnificent building.

It was an immortal palace. It was paved with white jade and was surrounded by immortal Qi. The two sides of the palace were planted with immortal trees that shone with divine light, and numerous snow-white Immortal Fruit were planted on the branches. They emitted a fragrance that could make one's heart and spleen bleed. Above the immortal palace, auspicious clouds could be seen, and auspicious cranes could also be seen soaring into the sky. They let out beautiful and pleasant cries.

The sound of nature came from the immortal palace, making Su Chen extremely intoxicated. However, at this moment, a massive wave of devilish energy swept over. At this moment... The immortal music stopped abruptly. Everything returned to dead silence.

The devilish energy dispersed, and what appeared in front of Su Chen wasn't the Immortal Palace, but a terrifying Devil City. Seven terrifying devil shadows were thousands of meters tall, reaching only into the clouds, standing tall in the Devil City.

In front of the Devil City stood a bone monument, which was forged from the bone of Divine Dragon. The ancient characters on it fluctuated. Su Chen finally understood that the Devil City was actually the God Extermination Palace.

As if he had a dream, Su Chen's mind regained its clarity, and he let out a long breath. That night, he had thought of many things, but it was difficult to figure out the reason.

The only thing he could guess was that there was a huge force in ancient times leading everything. It took away the souls of a few powerful experts. Another immortal palace was attacked by a mysterious force. In the end, an extremely strange God Extermination Devil City appeared.

"Perhaps the other half of the Soul Summoning Flag will appear in the God Extermination Palace." Such a thought emerged in Su Chen's mind.

"Yu Yue, wait for me! Very quickly, very quickly."

No matter how terrifying the Ten Thousand Soul Cave and the God Extermination Palace were, he would find their whereabouts without hesitation. Only for the person he deeply loved.
