Chapter 1049 (2/2)

There was a strong death-gas within the black smoke, but the death-gas disappeared when it came into contact with the brilliance. This was because a heart of a beast spirit that was originally full of death-gas would become a normal beast heart after a short while, thus purifying the death-gas! Moreover, the beast’s heart seemed to contain a hint of vitality now, as it was beating slightly.

Mu Chen looked at this scene in shock, as he had not expected this spiritual array to be so powerful. It not only purified the death-gas, but also gave life to the beast’s heart, which had been dead for thousands of years!

However, Mu Chen also knew that even amid such a seeming miracle, the beast’s heart could never be fully resurrected. After a short while, the beast’s heart slowly drifted towards the light curtain.

After the it reached it, the heart was integrated into it. It seemed almost like the heart had turned into a spot of light, truly integrating itself within the entire colossal array!

At that moment, when the beast’s heart was being integrating into the light curtain, the light curtain was slowly being torn open, revealing a vast gap. Mu Chen stared at the gap, then took a deep breath. He then turned his head and looked at Nine Nether and the others, nodded quickly, and stepped directly into the gap.

Nine Nether and the others followed behind him, stepping into the gap cautiously. As they did so, a red and bloody land entered their sights. The land seemed like a scarlet blood sea, which was strange and evil.

This color was not an act of nature, but had officially been dyed with real blood from some sacrifice, one which was indescribably powerful. Otherwise, it would not be this visibly clear and vibrant, especially after thousands of years! With just one glance, it caused a chill among Mu Chen and the others.

As the group was standing in the sky, they dared not land on this piece of land carelessly. Instead, they stood in the air and looked at the sky, which was also very different from the outside world.

There was a strong breath in the sky, which came from a once powerful existence. Though the existence had obviously already fallen, its will was still entrenched in the land, as if it was suppressing something. As such, the sky and the earth here seemed to be in a constant conflict with one another.

In the face of such an ominous power, Mu Chen and the others were seemingly insignificant. In fact, at this time, they were like ants between the palms of two fierce giants!

“In the ancient times, I think this was the fiercest place among the Land of the Divine Beasts,” Mu Chen sighed and said.

Even after thousands of years, the tragedy that happened in this place still shook the hearts of many people. The terrible battle that once broke out here was unimaginable.

Back then, the Extraterritorial Race broke out in full fury against the Land of the Divine Beasts, which had many strong warriors, all of whom tried their bests to protect their homeland. Such an intense battle made people tremble by just thinking about it.

Thinking about the place’s dire history, Nine Nether and the others were even more cautious and alert. After all, in this strange place, they might be killed at any moment!

“Let’s go, but try not to set your feet on the ground!” Mu Chen was looking into the distance, while he immediately waved them forward. Now that they had entered the inner region, they naturally could not give up.

By the time he had finished talking, he had already moved. However, this time, he carefully reduced his speed and dared not charge in fiercely.

Also, he dared not use the Exterminating Eye to spy anymore. After all, if something ancient was discovered, which then counter-attacked them, the consequence would be one that he could not afford!

Fortunately, this inner region was not as boundless as they had first imagined. After half an hour of making his ways towards the front, Mu Chen reduced his speed again, as something mysterious had suddenly appeared in the bloody land.

It was an ancient altar, which was large and standing on the land, as if it was linked directly to the heavens and the earth. Above the altar, many stone chains extended skyward. The chains were penetrating the land, as if they were binding something.

Mu Chen stared at the altar, a hunch developing in his heart. He thought that the goal of their trip was hidden here…

Just when this thought had just flashed through his mind, he suddenly noticed an indifferent, sly look, which was coming from somewhere within the altar. Mu Chen projected his gaze towards the look, where he saw Bai Ming, as he had expected.

Bai Ming wore a blue shirt and swayed an icy blue feather fan in front of his face. He stood among many powerful individuals from the Phoenix Clan.

As Bai Ming swayed the feather fan from side to side, he smiled at Mu Chen. It was a smile filled with ridicule.

“I did not expect you dare to appear here. I don’t know whether this makes you courageous or foolish!” He sneered.
