Deep inside the Myriad Beasts Tomb.
The area was always filled with thick death-gas. As darkness covered the entire land, there seemed to be no signs of life.
Swoosh!
The sound of rushing wind suddenly broke out in the dead silence and many shadows darted across the sky. They tore the death-gas apart in the twinkle of an eye, then went deep into the Myriad Beasts Tomb. These shadows were Mu Chen and his companions, who were on their way to the Divine Cemetery.
“Now that we are deep inside the Myriad Beasts Tomb, we should be nearing the Divine Cemetery.” Mu Chen was at the front of the group, the black light between his brows shimmering.
Although he did not activate the Exterminating Eye, he could still pierce through the death-gas and sense his surroundings keenly. This allowed the group to avoid the beast spirits.
Nine Nether, Han Shan, and the rest nodded. They trusted Mu Chen completely. They had enjoyed such a smooth journey so far, which made them wonder if they truly were in the notorious dangerous place in the Land of the Divine Beasts.
They knew that they owed this relatively easy trek to Mu Chen’s foresight. If he had not checked out the region well in advance, then chosen the safest route to travel, they might have been attacked multiple times by the beast spirits.
“Some of the groups may have already reached the Divine Cemetery,” Nine Nether said. She looked at the grey death-gas in the area and wondered what horrifying thing was in the darkness.
Mu Chen nodded. Although they had overtaken many groups, they still hadn’t been able to catch up with some of them. The leaders in these groups were truly the geniuses. They represented the elite among those who had entered the Land of the Divine Beasts. Even Golden Sky Prime would be wary of them.
As such, their opponents in the Divine Cemetery would be the supreme geniuses in the Land of the Divine Beasts. It would thus be difficult to stand out from them and take possession of the treasures.
Although it would be difficult, Mu Chen was fearless and filled with fighting spirit. After all, a master must be ready to overcome any obstacle that ordinary people could not.
Swoosh!
As the blood in his body boiled, Mu Chen maintained his speed, then turned into a shadow, darting across the grey mountains. By the time the beast spirits in the mountains noticed the group, they were already on their way out.
Four hours passed before Mu Chen and his companions started to slow down. They landed on the peak of a mountain that was covered by a grey forest, then looked into the distance. The land before them was no longer grey, but dark red.
It looked as though the land had been stained with blood for thousands of years. And not just ordinary blood, but the blood of Sovereigns, as there was a strong oppression exuding from the land. Even Mu Chen, who had the protection of the real dragon and real phoenix, had difficulty breathing because of it.
The gorges on the ground were deep and even the space warps looked disintegrated. This was due to the fierce battle that had taken place here. That battle had been so fierce, even after thousands of years, this place could still not be restored.
The red death-gas mingled with the willpower that had been left behind by many late Sovereigns. Within the red death-gas were lofty towers that looked like groves of trees.
These towers acted as shields and isolated the area from the outside world. The red death-gas was kept within the area, unable to get out.
Mu Chen squinted his eyes and the black light between his brows shimmered. He turned grave as he looked at the lofty towers. With the help of the Exterminating Eye, he could discern that those were not lofty towers, but were actually skeletons!
He could not make out whose skeletons they were, but he was certain that they belonged to many types of Divine Beasts. These skeletons covered the entire region, protecting those that had died within it.
“Is this the Divine Cemetery?” Nine Nether looked at the majestic scene and was shocked. Their group was like a tiny ant compared to the cemetery’s numerous skeleton minions.
“It should be.” Mu Chen smiled and nodded. He then tilted his head to look in another direction. He could sense some spiritual energy fluctuations, making it apparent that other groups had arrived.
“Looks like news about the cemetery has spread. Many of the powerful groups are going to be heading this direction.” Han Shan sighed.
