Chapter 1728: Skysc.r.a.ping Ancestral Land

The murals here were mostly of scenes of the original devil race fighting against the devil creatures . There were all kinds of devil creatures depicted in the murals .

The number of different creatures shown numbered in the tens of thousands . Some were as large as mountains, while some were as tiny as flies . There were mountains of corpses depicted . Some were the devil creatures, while some were warriors from the original devil race . It was a b.l.o.o.d.y and cruel sight .

They quickly reached the end of the corridor, and there, Long Chen saw a scene that made his heart shake .

It was a giant mural, with millions of the original devil race’s experts kneeling on the ground . Their leader was a beautiful woman, also kneeling, her hands crossed before her . She was looking up, her expression sacred .

A brush was pressed against her forehead, leaving behind a seven-colored divine rune . That divine rune was the Devil character .

Long Chen instantly understood that this Devil character, this divine rune, was not innate to the original devil race . It was something that had been bestowed upon them .

What was truly shocking though was that the person holding the brush had nine stars behind him . The nine stars were unleas.h.i.+ng brilliant divine light, and even through the mural, Long Chen felt a terrifying pressure that transcended through time .

Regretfully, the divine light was too bright, it was blinding . Those nine stars were like blazing suns, and their light drowned out the appearance of that person . Long Chen could only see a single hand through that light .

The hand was also covered in divine light and difficult to see clearly . It was hard to even say whether it belonged to a man or a woman .

Upon looking at those nine stars, Long Chen’s aura began to slowly rise . The Nine Star Hegemon Body Art began to circulate on its own .

Long Chen closed his eyes and felt a kind of summons . Perhaps he would be able to learn some secrets relating to the nine stars .

Regretfully, when he opened his eyes, that feeling of being summoned had vanished . The nine stars in the mural were the same and he felt a resonance, but all he had was a close feeling with them, a feeling like coming from the same source .

He couldn’t help being disappointed . He knew too little about the nine stars . That made him lack confidence .

“Who is this person? Can you say?” asked Long Chen .

Yue Xiaoqian merely shook her head .

Long Chen nodded . Many things were forbidden . But looking at this mural, it seemed the original devil race’s divine mark had been bestowed to them by this person .

He examined the person . The nine stars revolving around them threw the laws of heaven and earth into chaos . They were so powerful that they could penetrate the cosmos . It was as if all things had to bow down before them .

Although it was just a mural and the leftover artistic will was from the original devil race’s experts, Long Chen still felt that compared to the entire cosmos, he was an incredibly insignificant speck of dust . The two of them were in different dimensions, and it was impossible to compare their power .

“Is this the realm that is obtained when all nine stars are activated?” Long Chen sighed . Without seeing the real thing, he couldn’t learn anything . The nine stars were too brilliant .

This was just a mural . Hence, Long Chen only felt a slight feeling but was unable to understand anything from it .

“The divine seal, the Devil character, was awarded to us by a supreme existence . It is an immense honor, as well as an immense responsibility . After countless years of fighting against the devil race, our divine seal has a great suppressive effect against them . That’s why I could help you suppress those Empyrean Winged Blood Devils . However, I’m too weak, and using my divine seal on such a scale exhausts all my energy . I can only keep it up for a short moment . If it had been my mom instead, then with just her divine seal, she could have annihilated all those Empyrean Winged Blood Devils in an instant . ”

Yue Xiaoqian smiled proudly when she spoke of her mother . Clearly, she wors.h.i.+pped her mother .

“But then, why didn’t anyone use their divine seals against the Magical Beasts just now? Did you not permit them to use it for training purposes?” asked Long Chen .

Yue Xiaoqian shook her head . “No . Magical Beasts are not part of the devil race . Their bloodlines are completely different, so Magical Beasts are not suppressed by our divine seal . Let’s keep going . The Ten Thousand Devil Blood Pool is up ahead . ”

The two of them walked down a twisting stone path that wound around the mountains . In a region where nine mountains formed a circle, there was a blood-colored pool .

This pool was as flat as a mirror, and there wasn’t the slightest ripple on it . However, Long Chen felt an immense amount of energy within it .

“This is the Ten Thousand Devil Blood Pool . It is where our original devil race trains . Do you want to try it?” Yue Xiaoqian smiled .

“How do I try it?” asked Long Chen .

“This pool was created using the essence blood of ten thousand devils . Through the formation inside, it can duplicate a person . That person will have the exact same combat power, techniques, and cultivation base as you . In other words, you will be fighting yourself . It’s a very tough trial . It took me three tries to pa.s.s it, but it can really stimulate a person’s potential,” said Yue Xiaoqian .

Long Chen shook his head . “Then nevermind . I already went through such a trial in the Immemorial Path . It’s useless for me . ”
