Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jun Wuxie and the others, following the direction indicated by the old man of the Burial Clan, traversed the plains, crossed vast mountains, and headed west.

The world was becoming increasingly gloomy.

The whistling wind never stopped for a moment.

The biting coldness, along with the strange and evil aura, seeped into their bodies, involuntarily causing them to feel terrified.

At the same time, the dense death energy in this world greatly affected their life essence.

Jun Wuxie was fine, but Lilia could not withstand it.

Even Shangguan Wanwan found it difficult to lock in her own life essence, and as they continued westward, her life essence slowly drained away.

If this continued, they might not even reach Soul Refining Mountain before their bodies reached their limits.

Along the way, they saw countless graves and dilapidated coffins, and in the mountains, there were many deep caves filled with sinister energy, hiding evil and terrifying auras that made them feel cold all over.

"We can't continue like this."

Jun Wuxie landed on the peak of a high mountain.

This mountain was not large, but its altitude was very high.

Most importantly, he had observed the mountain and the surrounding area before landing.

Apart from some graves and dilapidated coffins that could be faintly seen thousands of meters away, there were no mysterious caves that made people tremble with fear.

Lilia's face was very pale, and her eyes were full of fatigue.

Shangguan Wanwan looked okay, but her aura was obviously much weaker.

"You guys should recover some life functions first."

Jun Wuxie directly chopped off a piece from the supreme-grade spirit crystal stone in the Eternal Life Temple and took it out.

The supreme-grade spirit crystal stone was originally a supreme-grade divine crystal stone, containing not only incomparably pure spiritual energy, but also a trace of the source of life, which could be used to replenish the lost life essence.

"This is a supreme-grade spirit crystal stone?"

Shangguan Wanwan looked at the spirit crystal stone blooming with crystal green light in front of her, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"You…"

In addition to her shock, she cast an inquiring look at Jun Wuxie.

She had only seen supreme-grade spirit crystal stones at the Primordial Stone Gambling Festival in the Star River District of Lingxu Realm's main city.

Moreover, the weight of the supreme-grade spirit crystal stone in front of her was too astonishing.

It could be seen that it was a corner that had been chopped off, and the cut was fresh.

Even if it was just a corner, it weighed several hundred pounds.

Jun Wuxie twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "That's right, I was the one at the Stone Gambling Festival."

Now that things had come to this, there was nothing to hide.

Since he had decided to take out the supreme-grade spirit crystal stone, the truth could no longer be concealed.

Pfft.

Shangguan Wanwan couldn't help but laugh.

She really found it difficult to associate the heroic and resolute man in front of her, with his domineering personality and decisive actions, with the naive ten-year-old child.

"Don't laugh!"

Jun Wuxie's face darkened, feeling extremely embarrassed.

It was simply too damaging to his heroic image.

He split the supreme-grade spirit crystal stone into two pieces with a finger gesture.

The larger piece weighed about two hundred pounds, and the smaller piece must have weighed a hundred pounds or so.

He gave the smaller one to Lilia and the larger one to Shangguan Wanwan, saying, "If you encounter people from your Demon Phase Sect, share some of the spirit crystal stone with them to replenish the life essence consumed under the influence of death energy."

Shangguan Wanwan nodded, and she and Lilia immediately put away the supreme-grade spirit crystal stones and began to absorb the true energy and source of life inside to restore themselves.

"We, these master-level forces, have inherited our legacies for countless ages, and we think we know everything about the world, but now it seems that we are just frogs at the bottom of a well."

Shangguan Wanwan said with emotion as she recovered her body.

"This world, an alternative secret realm space, exists in our world, but transcends our world…" She looked at the distant mountains and said, "Along the way, the strange caves we saw, the beings lurking inside, are terrifying beyond imagination…"

Jun Wuxie remained silent.

He strongly agreed with Shangguan Wanwan's words.

What kind of beings were lurking in those caves, they did not see.

But the aura emitted by those lurking beings was too terrifying.

Even the Holy Sects in their prime, or even the Fire Dragon at its peak, did not give him such a terrifying feeling.

Jun Wuxie sat down with his back against the mountain rock, letting the weak Mu XueLan lean in his arms.

Her face was extremely pale, her life energy was very weak, her eyes were difficult to fully open, and blood occasionally trickled from the corners of her mouth.

He reached out his hand and carefully wiped away the bloodstains from the corners of Mu XueLan's mouth, looking at her weak appearance, her face pale and bloodless but still stunningly beautiful, and his mood was somewhat complicated.

This woman, in a high position, was originally the master of the Dominators.

She was the cold and holy fairy in the eyes of the world.

But because she entered the Secret Realm of Tribulation, her Dao heart was shattered and she became possessed.

Although, Jun Wuxie did not think he was at fault for all of this.

But Mu XueLan's ending was still due to him.

Moreover, no matter what Mu XueLan's attitude towards him was, whether she hated him or hated him to the bone.

These were not important to him.

He only knew that he had been with this woman, so he could not just watch her die.

This had nothing to do with feelings, but with his inner principles.

Therefore, no matter how difficult it was, he had to get the 【Spirit Marrow Liquid】.

Whether it was to save her, or to save Uncle Bird, his mistress, or Su Lan.

This matter must succeed!

Half a day later, Shangguan Wanwan and Lilia's physical conditions had recovered a lot, and their faces had turned rosy.

Just then, a earth-shattering roar suddenly came from the distance.

Roar!

The entire mountains and earth were shaking, many great mountains were shaking, and rocks were rolling down.

Jun Wuxie was startled, and holding Mu XueLan, he soared into the sky, opened his Primordial True Eyes, and looked into the distant sky.

Because this world was special, it had a great limitation on eyesight.

He could only see a distance of about a hundred miles before reaching the limit, and even at this distance, he could not see clearly.

He only vaguely saw that in the middle of a certain mountain, a mysterious cave gushed out a monstrous gray-black energy, rolling upwards and covering the sky.

In the air thousands of meters away from that mountain, a group of figures surrounded by sword energy were fleeing for their lives.

At the same time, there were also two people who rushed into the sky from in front of the cave, in a state of disarray.

The next moment.

A bloody palm stretched out from the cave, ignoring the distance of space, and grabbed the two people in its hand.

Jun Wuxie was horrified to see that after those two people fell into the bloody palm, their bodies instantly evaporated, without even having time to scream.

The monstrous gray-black energy quickly shrank back into the cave.

In a horrified glance.

He saw a tall figure at the entrance of the cave.

That figure was wearing broken black armor, with only half of its body, and even half of its head, with a bloody mess.

But the feeling it gave people was like an unshakable demonic mountain, even across a hundred miles, it still made his heart feel like it was being violently squeezed, with a feeling of bursting.

"Demonic God bloodline, I sensed the Demonic God bloodline…"

Shangguan Wanwan came to Jun Wuxie's side in shock, gazing at the distant mountains, her delicate body trembling slightly.

"Demonic God bloodline?" Jun Wuxie looked at her in astonishment: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. According to the records in the sect's ancient books, our Demon Phase Sect's core lineage is descended from the descendants of the Demonic God from endless years ago. Only the aura of the Demonic God bloodline can cause resonance in the bloodline within our bodies, just like someone calling in our ears…"

"However, according to the clues obtained by the past ancestors, the true Demonic God bloodline had already completely disappeared in that untraceable era. We, these later generations, are just the mottled and incomplete bloodlines passed down from the descendants of the Demonic God. How could there be a being with the Demonic God blood in this secret realm world…"

"It seems that this secret realm world has too many secrets that we can't imagine! But now there is no time to think about these things, we must leave quickly, those seem to be people from the Holy Gate and the Sky Opening Sword Sect, they have already discovered us!"

Jun Wuxie went ahead, like a stream of light streaking across the sky.

Shangguan Wanwan and Lilia followed closely behind.

In the distant sky, the group of people looked back, and seeing that the demonic energy had subsided and the cave had returned to peace, they could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, covered in sweat.

"Damn it, I told you not to pry into those caves, but those two insisted on not listening, not only did they bury themselves, but they almost killed us!"

A Holy Sect powerhouse from the Holy Gate said in a cold voice.

"This time we came to this Ancient Burial Ground, the losses were heavy! The people on that mountain just now seem to be Jun Wuxie and Shangguan Wanwan! This time, no matter what, we can't let him escape again, otherwise the price we paid will not even recover a bit of interest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a roar came from behind.

The huge Purple Flame Lion King, burning with purple fire, stepped through the air.

Following closely behind were other Beast Kings.

The faces of the Holy Sect powerhouses from the Sky Opening Sword Sect and the Holy Gate suddenly turned gloomy.

They did not expect to encounter the Beast King here.

Originally, they could have devoured the things on Jun Wuxie's body alone, but now they had to divide them into many shares.

"Chase! If we delay any longer, it will be difficult to lock onto Jun Wuxie's position, and it will not be easy to find him!"

The powerhouses of the two sects quickly left, ignoring the Beast King.

…

At this time, Jun Wuxie, Shangguan Wanwan, and Lilia had already flown far away.

At the end of the line of sight, there was an ancient city in the dim world.

Above that city, the clouds were very thick, black and heavy, as if they were about to press down to the ground.

Between the city and the clouds, there was a floating, hazy mist, filled with dense death energy and soaring yin energy.

Soon, they landed on the plain.

From a distance, they saw the city gate of that city, with several prehistoric characters engraved on it—City of Buried Corpses!

Having arrived here, the entire world became incomparably oppressive.

Furthermore, they found it difficult to fly, as a mysterious force seemed to be sealing off the airspace.

“My true energy is running a bit sluggishly, as if it’s being suppressed…”

Shangguan Wanwan said.

Lilia nodded, indicating that she felt the same way.

“Could this be a restriction formation specific to the City of Buried Corpses?”

Jun Wuxie’s heart sank.

A region with restriction formations would be a good thing for dealing with the pursuing powerhouses from the Holy Gate and the Kaitian Sword Sect.

But who knew what kind of dangers lurked within the city?

Shangguan Wanwan and Lilia, unable to use their true energy, would experience a tenfold or even greater drop in strength.

Once inside the city, if they encountered danger, they might not have the power to fight back.

At that time, with Mu Xue Lan in his arms, he would not only have to fight but also protect the two of them, making the situation extremely bad!
