CHAPTER 803: CHAPTER 561: THIS KING’S PROMISE STILL STANDS

The black giant mountain, like a colossal entity connecting hell and the human realm, its surface covered in dried black blood, exuding a chilling horror.

A few hours ago, skeletal white bones sprawled over the mountains, climbing along the steep slopes, as if crawling from the depths of an endless abyss, seemingly infinite, advancing continuously, with ghastly green flames flickering in their hollow eye sockets, as if the entire giant mountain was engulfed by a tidal wave formed by countless white bones.

Meanwhile, around the giant mountain, invisible monsters hovered, occasionally revealing fierce shapes in the darkness, then disappearing abruptly, coming and going without a trace, eerily horrifying.

At this moment, amidst the expanse of scattered white bones, there was a sound of sharp howls and spirit lights together.

Figures, like comets, pierced through this silent abyss, rushing into the endless terrifying bone wave.

"Bang bang bang!"

In one location, a series of explosions rang out, a brilliant firelight swooped down, burning open a passage several dozen feet wide, instantly vaporizing the white bones along the way with high temperatures, dispersing even the soul fire within.

Within the firelight, at the forefront was a burly man in black scales, with small dog eyes, firelight at his mouth and nose, his form bizarre and unnatural, with divine light flowing like magma through the cracks of the black scale armor, a three-legged red gold furnace suspended over his head, its holes blazing fire, mirroring the firelight in his eyes, looking at the white bones continuously springing from the darkness below, his eyes flickered with firelight.

"Brother Huo Chi, are you sure there’s no mistake? These skeletons are bare, what treasures can they hold, and we’re uncertain of their number, plus they are getting fiercer, as you’ve seen before, there’s something ominously strong in the abyss below."

"We’d be better off checking above, crossing the thunder sea to the ruins in the projection, where there must be strange treasures."

Behind the burly man, a compact-faced creature with vertical eyes, features like white jade, and a mouth seemingly smeared red like a demonic dwarf spoke, with a voice like a sharp knife scraping the dish bottom, piercingly shrill, sounding somewhat hesitant with a tone of retreat.

Among eight or nine streams of light, there were figures with impressive beauty, resembling demons, or with clear devil race characteristics.

Evidently, these were Demons!

Moreover, Great Demons, each with powerful presence, casually extinguishing nearby approaching skeletons, listening to the words with flickering pupils.

They had fought into the bone sea for about an hour now, uncertain of how deep they’ve descended, yet the abyss below showed no bottom, and deathly creatures around grew increasingly fierce, endless and relentless, giving them chills at the back of their heads.

Most importantly, previously there were terrifying presences stirring within this abyss, triggering a violent bombardment by the thunder sea overhead, the mountain-like figure along with the death aura, inducing heart-pounding fear.

This form of unknown danger, even for beings as Great Demons, was truly daunting, thus the spoken hesitations.

Additionally, the essence Qi here was utterly extinct, dramatically weakening their powers in this environment, undeniably unsettling them.

With firelight flickering from his mouth and nose, the burly man spoke hoarsely with eyes glowing, "My Holy Clan has records, fifteen hundred years ago, our ancestors perished in a great battle against the Heavenly Humans from the Human Clan, we were suppressed at Ten Thousand Mountains."

As he said this, fire blazed from his mouth and nose, gnashing his teeth, his voice like muffled thunder, a large hand grabbed, snatching a grinning Xi Yi in the left void, then snorted, expelling a wisp of flame, rolling the creature up and sucking it into his nose, subsequently his eyes lit up like two burning furnaces, illuminating the darkness below.

"Haven’t you noticed, among these white bones, many belong to our kind, I suspect the abyssal end is the ancient battlefield recorded in our clan, our ancestors’ Holy Bones might be there, if any of you could help find them, there would be great rewards."

"Moreover, according to our records, that ancient battle involved numerous Heavenly People and True Demons, if my conjecture is correct, who knows how many Heavenly Treasures are left inside."

This person claiming to be of the Holy Clan, based on his words, is one of the Ten Evils from Ten Thousand Mountains.

He spoke of some secret past recorded within his clan, seeking the True Demon Bone of the ancestors.

Unlike the majority who ascended the giant mountain, he chose to go downstream, penetrating the bone tides straight into the abyss.

Risk often signifies reward, surely something awaits below.

The following Demons were the external reinforcements he had gathered.

Upon hearing the Great Demon of the Huodou Clan speak thus, several Great Demons turned human form, their eyes flickered, spirits stirred,

"Brother Huochi, is this true?"

"If true, we dare to give it a try!"

The Great Demon of the Huodou Clan snorted, "You’re all distinguished individuals, would I deceive like coaxing three-year-olds."

"Besides, it seems I’m not the only one thinking this, others have also taken action, perhaps they’ve figured something out too."

As the Great Demon spoke, tilting his head upwards, at a distant location on the giant mountain, spirit lights surged, rapidly swooping down.

Other beings too charged downward from different directions, attacking the white bone tides.

The other Great Demons noticed this, believing a little more.

"Let’s go!"

The Great Demon of the Huodou Clan quivered his body, the red gold demon furnace suspended overhead surged fiery flames, spinning out from the furnace mouth, transforming into a huge fire snake rumbling downward, densely packed white bones followed, wailing, opening the passage.
