243 The Emperor Burial Abyss Appears
It had been three days since Qin Chen killed the Taihuang Pavilion’s elder, and this news had long spread throughout the ten lands.
“As expected of the Elder King. To think he can even kill God-realm experts from the nine Heavens. How terrifying.”
...“It’s said that the Elder King has an expert behind him providing guidance. That expert’s cultivation seems to be above that of the God realm. He might be the Elder King’s guardian!”
“Guardian? Could it be that the Elder King is also the descendant of a great emperor?”
“To think the Elder King is the descendant of a great emperor. No wonder he has such heaven-defying combat power. With the Elder King here, all the geniuses in the ten lands simply pale in comparison.”
“Does anyone know which great emperor’s successor the Elder King is? Looking at his physique, it seems to be a bit like the Chaotic Holy Body. Could he be the descendant of the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor?”
“What? The Elder King is the successor of the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor? No wonder he’s so terrifying.”
“…”
Rumors about the Elder King were all over the ten lands. In the end, there was even a rumor that the Elder King was the successor of the Chaotic Heavenly Emperor, and countless believed it.
During this period, many came to the Taiyi Holy Land to verify, but the Elder King was in seclusion, so the rumors were never confirmed. Instead, the more they spread, the more bizarre they became.
At this moment, Qin Chen, who was the focus of public opinion, was refining the divine source in the great Emperor’s palace. After three days of refining without rest, the basketball-sized divine source had become the size of a fingernail. Qin Chen’s cultivation had also broken through to level three of the Supreme Sage realm.
Since reaching the Supreme Sage realm, Qin Chen had found that his cultivation progress was slowing down. Even with a treasure like the divine source, Qin Chen had only advanced by one level.
With this breakthrough, Qin Chen found that every time he broke through, he needed to use several times more spiritual energy than ordinary people needed. This was also the main reason why his cultivation progress was getting slower and slower.
After refining the last bit of the divine source, Qin Chen stretched and stood up. He did not leave the great Emperor’s palace. Instead, he went to the 33 thousand-foot steles.
“System, I want to check in,” Qin Chen said softly.
[Congratulations, host. You have checked-in in the great Emperor’s palace and have thus obtained 50 kilograms of divine ore.]
As the number of check-ins increased, the rewards Qin Chen received decreased. Now, he could only obtain emperor ores and some Divine Spirit Sources. it was difficult to even obtain supernormal knowledge.
Qin Chen looked into the depths of the great Emperor’s palace. If he could check in there, he would definitely be able to get better things. However, the emperor’s runes were constantly flashing in the depths of the palace, and a terrifyingly dark aura exuded. The aura was so dark that it was as if it did not belong to this world. Even if Qin Chen’s combat strength was monstrous, he did not dare to provoke it.
Exhaling a breath of hot air, Qin Chen left the great Emperor’s palace. As soon as he walked out of the palace, a violent fluctuation came from Western Heaven, causing the entire world to tremble.
In the depths of Western Heaven, Heaven and Earth resonated, and the Great Path buzzed. The sky was covered by black clouds and muffled thunder could be heard, making many feel very suppressed.
In the dark clouds, rows of ghost soldiers and an ancient battlefield appeared. The ancient battlefield was very desolate. Broken holy weapons and armor could be seen everywhere, and crumbled battle flags could be vaguely seen. The whole place looked very mysterious.
Prince Zhan rode on the clouds and looked at the ancient battlefield from thousands of miles away. He exclaimed, “So this is the legendary most dangerous forbidden ground, the Emperor Burial Abyss?”
At the same time, sounds of things whistling through the air could be heard. The seven Gods of the nine Heavens had arrived. They stared at the ancient battlefield and their eyes were full of fear. One of the Gods cried out, “So this is the battlefield back then? Isn’t this too tragic?!”
“Emperor Burial Abyss… Could it be that there’s really a great emperor buried here?” The elder of Mystic Sword Sect snorted, and his eyes became extremely solemn.
At the same time, almost all the experts in the ten lands were rushing to Western Heaven. They only had one goal, the most dangerous forbidden ground, the Emperor Burial Abyss.
Qin Chen, who was in the Taiyi Holy Land, also rushed over with the big scorpion. He was extremely excited. After all, the big black pot had said that as long as he entered the Emperor Burial Abyss, it would help him make an extreme emperor weapon to recognize him as its master.
Half a day passed, and all the experts of the ten lands rushed over. However, they only dared to watch from ten thousand miles away. No one dared to enter the Emperor Burial Abyss.
“Tsk tsk, it’s no wonder it’s called the most dangerous forbidden ground. I can feel a terrifying chill just by looking from the outside. It’s hard to imagine just how dangerous it is inside.”
“It’s said that the Emperor Burial Abyss was an ancient battlefield during the heaven burial era. It’s also rumored that a great emperor died there. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but that was a great emperor expert!”
“The heaven burial era seems to have been cut off by the long river of time. Whether it’s ancient books or legends, there’s no record of the era. Other than the name, no one knows anything about it. Some people even think that the so-called heaven burial era is just fake.”
“We can find out these questions from the Emperor Burial Abyss. Are there any experts who can lead us into the Emperor Burial Abyss? If I can solve my doubts, it’s worth it even if I die.”
“That’s right. Is there any expert who would like to step forward? We swear to follow you to the death.”
A group of people shouted, all wanting to find an expert to lead them into the Emperor Burial Abyss. However, even after shouting for a long time, not a single expert dared to step forward.
Qin Chen and the big scorpion rushed over. When he saw the mysterious ancient battlefield covered by black clouds, he was shocked by the desolate aura.
[Ding!]
[A terrifying divinity has been detected in front!]
The system’s notification immediately attracted Qin Chen’s attention. He suppressed the restlessness in his heart and asked softly, “Big black pot, are you sure that after I enter the Emperor Burial Abyss, there’s really a way for me to make the extreme emperor weapon recognize me as its master?”
“Don’t worry, I never lie. Since I said that I’d make the extreme emperor weapon recognize you as its master, I won’t go back on my word,” The big black pot replied.
Hearing this, Qin Chen was quite excited. He looked at the ancient battlefield from afar and his eyes became very determined. No matter what, he had to enter the Emperor Burial Abyss and get the extreme emperor weapon.
“Elder King, you’ve come too!” Ji Daozi suddenly walked over and greeted Qin Chen.
Qin Chen nodded, then asked, “Daoist Ji, has anyone entered the Emperor Burial Abyss yet?”
Ji Daozi shook his head and sighed, “The Emperor Burial Abyss is the most dangerous and forbidden ground. Even Gods don’t dare to enter it easily. Now, only the outermost first layer of the battlefield has appeared. No one dares to take the risk to enter it.
Qin Chen frowned. He was a little impatient. After all, an extreme emperor weapon was at stake. If the Gods from the nine Heavens knew about it, they would probably ask for a share of it.
At that moment, the big black pot suddenly transmitted a message, “Elder King, let’s go in now. Otherwise, it will be too late when the entire Emperor Burial Abyss appears.”
