Capítulo 804: Chapter 561: This King’s Promise Still Stands (Part 2)

Several Great Demons spoke no more, transforming into surging Demon Light, continuing their charge downward, pounding the White Bone creatures into dust.

An hour later, these Demons began to encounter resistance, confronting Undead Creatures with decayed flesh and extraordinary malignancy, comparable to the Martial Vault, full of rampant murderous intent, fearless of death, and lacking intelligence.

Two and a half hours later, on the black Giant Mountain, they saw a towering Bone Castle constructed from White Bones, their arrival startling the presence inside, where demonic howls erupted.

Rolling Death Qi surged out, as a tall, Fierce Undead Creature leaped from the Bone Castle, resembling a being stripped of its skin, with a faint bluish glow emanating from its exposed skeleton, covered in fine cracks as if silently recounting the brutal battles it had faced in life.

And upon the skeleton, moist blood and flesh tendons were entwined, with muscle textures and blood vessels visible, though incomplete, akin to a blood-colored slurry clinging stickily to the White Bone, squirming eerily at times, as if alive.

Its half-skull was missing, revealing the darkened brain inside, making a nauseating gurgling sound. In its hollow eye sockets, two clumps of pale golden flames flickered, like Evil Ghosts from Hell, while inside its chest cavity, between several broken ribs, hung a half-formed lung, producing a “hoo-shhh hoo-shhh” sound with its movements, like a worn-out bellows. At the heart’s location, a constantly expanding and contracting black tumor, covered with fine blood vessels, issued rolling black gas with each beat, surging Demonic Qi and emitting a piercing howl.

This was an Undead Creature about to fully regenerate its flesh, comparable to a Great Demon!

Its soul fire, full of fierce light, stared at the Great Demons who intruded its territory, and it let out a frenzied and excited roar, pouncing directly at them.

Simultaneously, with its wild howl, the surrounding tide of White Bones rioted, like fearless wild dogs, intent on devouring and tearing the Great Demons apart.

“Living, Forbidden Zone, Die!”

Led by Huo Dou, the Great Demons’ expressions slightly changed, roaring as they engaged in fierce battle with the Undead Creature.

The savage battle lasted for more than 15 minutes; though outnumbered, the isolation from Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in this place greatly reduced the power of their Innate Divine Ability, severely diminishing their strength. Ultimately, at the cost of one Great Demon being critically injured, and three accompanying Great Demons becoming cannon fodder, they managed to smash the skull of the Undead Creature, dispersing its soul fire.

This type of Undead Creature, though possessing overwhelming Demon Power in such a place, also had a fatal flaw: a fragile soul fire.

“Still not at the bottom, still not at the bottom, where does this lead to, not Hell, is it?”

“No, I can’t continue, I’m leaving, you all continue.”

A sharp and angry roar sounded, within Huo Dou’s group of Demons, the previously unlucky dwarf Demon, whose body seemed about to crack, one eye weeping blood tears, Fierce and irritable.

It had been unlucky, wounded by the dying counterattack of the Undead Creature, and was now both furious and timid.

The further they went downward, the more terrifying the White Bone creatures they encountered became, after losing comrades, they were fearful of what else they might face, making them fearful at this level of Great Demon, ready to retreat.

Even if there were Heavenly Treasures below, one must be alive to claim them, not to mention they hadn’t found any treasures yet, only monsters.

This business, not worth it!

At this moment, the sturdy Black Armor man from the Huodou Clan, flames in his eyes, looked at the Undead Creature skeleton just scattered, without soul fire to support it, that once sturdy as Divine Iron skeleton, crumbled to powder in his hand, causing him to frown slightly.

This ghostly place, how did these bones cultivate to such terrifying levels?

His gaze gradually rose, looking towards the Bone Castle not far below, he moved, screeching forward.

A few breaths later, this Great Demon of the Huodou Clan dashed inside the ghastly White Bone Bone Castle, his eyes immediately flashing with brilliance.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh”

The sound of slicing through the air followed closely from behind, the remaining Demons also rushed in.

Upon entering, startled exclamations echoed.

“Luck Spirit Root!”

In the bleak and eerie Bone Castle, there was a piece of Pure Land, suffused with colorful glow, there lay a pond, upon which bloomed a Seven-Colored Lotus, dazzling and divine, inhaling its Essence Qi invigorating the body, making one feel thoroughly comfortable.

Instantly, the eyes of the several Great Demons turned green, swiftly, as if teleporting, all rushed forward to vie for the Seven-Colored Lotus in the pond.

“Mine!”

“Get lost!”

“…”

The demons began to brawl and attack each other. Soon, the large white Bone Castle was reduced to a heap of ruins by the brutality of these creatures. Several sides were in a fierce battle, until after fifteen minutes, the Great Demon of the Huodou Clan managed to barely pacify these treasure-hungry beings with his slightly superior skills.

“You were all invited by me, each an individual of stature, and yet, without understanding the situation, you start internal conflicts here. Isn’t that rather unseemly?”

“I’ve mentioned that this could very well be an ancient battlefield, and possibly with a Heavenly People’s Tomb. It seems now that this might confirm my hypothesis. This place, isolated from Essence Qi, has White Bones cultivated to a realm comparable to ours. I was curious earlier, but it seems now there is a reasonable answer.”

“If I’m not mistaken, the stronger the presence, the more likely it is for something like the Luck Spirit Root, a Heavenly Treasure, to appear.”

Saying this, the Great Demon of the Huodou Clan narrowed his eyes, his gaze flickering with fervor, his tone growing playful,

“So, what do you say, shall we continue our exploration?”

As he finished speaking, his gaze shifted to the dwarf demon hesitating at the back.

“Go!”

“We must go!” The dwarf Great Demon’s tone was resolute, eyes filled with intense heat.

And the other demons fixed their eyes on the seven-colored lotus spinning above the Great Demon of the Huodou Clan’s head, their eyes giving away the answer.

“Then it’s decided. This lotus will be shared equally between myself and you all.” The great demon of the Huodou Clan’s mouth curved into a smile.

Soon, the demons divided the seven-colored lotus according to their abilities, each satisfied, and quickly continued to venture further. At this moment, each one’s eyes burned brightly, determined to uncover the mysteries of the abyss below.

This same situation wasn’t unique. On the other sides of the vast black Giant Mountain, mighty figures with extraordinary Divine Skills sensed the abnormality of the abyss below, continuing their exploration and discovering numerous anomalies.

Some found broken Taoist Soldiers, still containing a formidable divinity;

Another had incredible luck, defeating a corpse creature on par with the Martial Vault, and found fragments of the Luck Spirit Root inside!

And in the pitch-black abyss, devoid of any light, Chen Yuan stood tense within a giant city, gazing at the figures that had been blasted down and the three Undying Kings exuding overwhelming Demon Power.

The three Undying Kings used their divine skills to pursue the Daqian National Master, who, just as he was about to be struck down, suddenly burst into brilliant golden light.

This golden light traveled with earth-shattering speed, covering several miles in the blink of an eye, dodging the assault of the Undying Kings, and then vanished into the darkness of the giant city.

Even the three Undying Kings couldn’t catch the Daqian Martial Saint determined to escape!

Two of the Undying Kings wanted to continue the pursuit, but the White-clothed Monarch stopped them.

He then raised his head and looked skyward in the direction of the black Giant Mountain, his dark eyes flickering coldly.

“Some daredevils have come.”

“Daring to intrude upon this place.”

“All must die!”

Having said this, he let out a world-shaking demon howl, his madness spreading far, reaching the Burial Land.

From the vast Burial Land stretching into the distance, countless White Bones stood up with a rattling sound, gazing upward, soul waves trembling the air with a terrifying sharp screech.

The Kasaya Arhat and Long-haired King seemed to receive a message and rose into the sky.

The White-clothed Monarch then flew towards Chen Yuan, clad in black, his demonic qi towering to the heavens, long hair fluttering. His heart in his chest thumped like a drum, causing those behind Chen Yuan to feel as if heavily struck. The horses neighed wildly, and the armored soldiers staggered, in a horrific shock.

However, when the White-clothed Monarch was about a hundred feet away, he halted, his pitch-black pupils looking down upon Chen Yuan. But Chen Yuan remained unmoving, because, surprisingly, the monarch’s eyes contained no killing intent, only wildness and indifference,

“My previous promise still stands.”

“I can help you achieve Martial Saint.”

“But you must collect the materials yourself. You’ll need a batch of Dragon Tiger Primordial Spirits, and right now, there are quite a few!”
