Chaos God's Nest

When Yan Xiaohuang and others entered the ruins of the ancient city, they were shocked by the scene before them.

The entire city was filled with bones and countless corpses. At the same time, there was a strong smell of death, which made people feel horrified and frightened.

Yan Xiaohuang frowned at this and couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? How come there are so many corpses? What happened here before? Could someone have brutally killed them?"

"It seems that these creatures did not die from deliberate slaughter by others. In my opinion, it is more like their souls were directly wiped out by some mysterious power!" Old Meng suddenly said.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but ask.

"You might as well take a closer look at these corpses. There is not a single scar left on the body, which shows that they must have died of internal injuries! And if it is an internal injury, then there are only two possibilities. One is death by poisoning, and the other is death by soul killing! Even if it is death by poisoning, there will definitely be traces of poison on the bones, which means that the bones must be black. But looking at these bones, each one is pure white. Based on this inference, poisoning is absolutely impossible! So it must be death by the soul!" said Old Meng.

Hearing what Elder Meng said, Yan Xiaohuang was also very surprised, and then he suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. I didn't expect that such an inference could be made from just a skeleton!"

“Haha, your current cultivation level is only at the Ranwu realm, and there are many things you have not seen or heard of. I think when you become stronger, when you encounter such things again, you will be able to understand them like this!” Old Meng said with a smile.

"Well! Mr. Meng, you are right! I guess my experience is too shallow!" In response, Yan Xiaohuang nodded in agreement.

Next, Yan Xiaohuang didn't pay too much attention to these corpses, but continued to move slowly towards the center of the city ruins.

At the same time, the deeper they went into the city ruins, the more frightened they became, simply because there were more corpses around them, so many that they were countless and piled up into a mountain. It seemed that they had died too long ago. Some of the corpses and bones even had scary green hair growing on them, which looked extremely creepy.

In response to this, Yan Xiaohuang's face became even gloomier. He raised his head and looked forward, only to see an ancient blood-red altar not far away.

"Dark blood sacrifice?"

Seeing this, Yan Xiaohuang immediately exclaimed in surprise.

He had seen ancient altars of this type and specifications before. It seemed that he had just entered the Ancient Temple at that time, and it was also his first time to go out with Lord Rabbit to carry out sect missions. He remembered that the person who set up this dark blood sacrifice was the Ancient Saint Jibing. If he remembered correctly, he was also the junior brother of his master Huang Que.

"It's not a dark blood sacrifice! It's a more evil and cruel sacrificial method!" At this moment, after hearing what Yan Xiaohuang said, Elder Meng suddenly said.

"What? A sacrificial ritual more evil than the dark blood sacrifice?"

"That's right! And if I remember correctly, this method of sacrifice should be called the Dark Soul Sacrifice. In short, it is to improve one's own or someone else's strength by refining the spiritual power of others! Compared with the Dark Blood Sacrifice, the scale of the Dark Soul Sacrifice is generally larger, and the process of starting the sacrifice is more cumbersome! Therefore, once it starts, it is far from enough without millions of lives as sacrifices!" said Old Meng in a deep voice.

"hiss!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but take a breath.

"Millions! In that case, didn't everyone in the ruins of this ancient city die in this soul sacrifice?"

"It must be right! After all, you have just seen that these people all died because their souls were forcibly wiped out. I think the culprit is this soul sacrifice!" Old Meng said in a low voice. It is not difficult to hear from the tone and intonation of his words that he seems to hate this evil method of sacrifice.

At the same time, just as the two were talking, they suddenly heard a strange and eerie laugh coming from the front.

"Hey hey hey!"

All I can say is that this laughter doesn't sound like something a human could make. It's both extremely harsh and shrill, mixed with an extremely disgusting tremor.

Hearing this laughter, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but frown, and immediately said coldly to the front: "Who is playing tricks over there? Get out here!"

As Yan Xiaohuang finished speaking, a black figure slowly appeared on the tall blood-red altar in front of him.

This man was wearing a wide black cloak, and his features could not be seen at all. A strange aura of death permeated his whole body. As for the strange laughter from before, it came from his mouth.

"Who are you? Why are you here? Did you kill everyone here?" Yan Xiaohuang's expression was a little solemn. He looked at the mysterious figure who suddenly appeared on the altar in front of him and asked immediately.

Hearing Yan Xiaohuang's question, the black-robed man immediately laughed and said, "Hehehe! As you said, I was the one who killed all these people before! As for who I am? You don't need to know! Because soon, you will be the same as them!"

Having said that, the mysterious man in black robe took the lead in taking action without saying a word. A powerful pressure suddenly emerged from his body, and then he slapped Yan Xiaohuang through the air.

In response to this, Yan Xiaohuang snorted coldly, and then an extremely bright golden light burst out from his body. Facing the terrifying and swift palm from the mysterious man in black robe, he did not retreat, but chose to meet it directly and threw a punch.

boom!

The golden blood was like a rainbow, rising straight up into the sky! Along with the roar of the law, a powerful aura emerged from Yan Xiaohuang's fist.

Facing the powerful man in black robe for the first time, he did not dare to be careless, so he put all his strength into this punch and used all his strength.

Rumble!

The golden fist light collided with the black palm print, causing a terrifying sound, and even the void was shattered.

Seeing this, the black-robed man seemed to be even more excited, and immediately said with a strange smile: "Hehe! Such vigorous blood and energy are exactly what I want right now! Boy! I have decided! Later, I will not only sacrifice your soul to that adult, but I will also devour your body as well!"

"Hehe, everyone can brag! But I want to see if you have the ability to do it!" Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang replied with disdain.

As they were talking, the two men fought again. Above the void, their bodies began to collide continuously, like two ancient holy mountains colliding. Every time they came into contact, there would be a deafening sound.

At the same time, during the collision, both of them displayed powerful magic in their hands. Therefore, it can be seen that above the void, there are large areas of Taoist patterns spreading, and the ancient and powerful laws are fully displayed.

As the two men moved away from each other again, Yan Xiaohuang let out a light shout, and then activated his Heavenly Thunder Technique. The next moment, his whole body was suddenly wrapped in tremendous thunder. In the sky, he was like a tyrant from the depths of thunder. As his mind directed, thunder roared and rolled over.

In response to this, the mysterious man in black robe was not in a hurry. He was seen quickly forming seals with his hands and muttering something as if he was reciting some magic formula. The next moment, black fog rolled up around him, and a deathly aura surged out, covering half of the sky in an instant.

Afterwards, the deathly energy began to condense and transformed into terrifying ghosts and monsters, which kept roaring and shouting and rushed towards Yan Xiaohuang one after another.

In response to this, Yan Xiaohuang sneered. He thought that the Heavenly Thunder Technique was a very strong and masculine method, which was specifically designed to overcome all evil and dark things. This person's actions were tantamount to hitting a rock with an egg.

As expected, in front of the vast and boundless sea of ​​thunder, these ghosts and monsters transformed from death energy could not hurt Yan Xiaohuang at all. Before they could get close, they were shattered by the thunder and turned into nothingness.

Seeing this, the mysterious man in black robe was also furious, and he immediately roared, "Damn it! You actually have a magic that can restrain me!"

Yan Xiaohuang smiled without saying anything. The other party's behavior was a bit too stupid. He really didn't want to say anything more. Then, with thousands of thunders bathing his body, he rushed forward and quickly rushed towards the man in black.

Seeing Yan Xiaohuang rushing towards him with violent thunder, the man in black robe hurriedly retreated and fled towards the bloody altar.

"Want to run away? Can you run away?"

Yan Xiaohuang shouted immediately upon seeing this, and then accelerated his movement again, soaring up like an eagle striking the sky, and rushed straight towards the black-robed man on the altar.

At the same time, seeing Yan Xiaohuang getting closer, the man in black was also shocked. He turned around quickly and formed seals with his hands. In an instant, a strange formation appeared under his feet. It began to flash with black light, and his figure was about to disappear.

"not good!"

Yan Xiaohuang thought to himself that this was not good. The other party was trying to escape. However, he was still some distance away from the other party and could not stop him at all.

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but speed up again. Unfortunately, just when he reached the black-robed man, the other party's figure completely disappeared in the strange formation. Then, the black-robed man's resentful and gloomy voice was heard again in the air.

"Boy! I will remember you! The reason why I did this this time was because I was careless and did not expect you to have such a secret method! If I meet you again next time, I will make you pay the price!"

After the words were spoken, the surroundings fell into silence again.

"Damn it! He actually got away!"

Yan Xiaohuang was also very angry about this, and then he punched the bloody altar.

"Don't think too much. What this person just displayed is an ancient secret method that requires a huge price to activate. Although he escaped this time, I think he must have been seriously injured!" The voice of Old Meng came, saying to Yan Xiaohuang.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang also sighed, and then said: "Even so, it's still a pity that we couldn't catch him! Judging from what he just said, there must be someone behind him!"

"Yes! You are right! This kind of ancient sacrificial method! With his strength, he certainly cannot set it up. We can know without guessing that there must be someone helping him behind the scenes! Maybe it is a powerful being from the upper realm. Of course, it is not certain. Maybe it is the method of aliens!" Old Meng said after pondering for a moment.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was also shocked, and then asked: "Aliens? Elder Meng, do you mean that there are aliens behind this?"

"It's just a guess! I think those big figures in the upper realm, even if they don't regard the creatures in the lower realm as human beings, will not take action easily. You must know that this is related to great cause and effect! Once something unexpected happens, it will be easy to be held accountable in the future!" Old Meng replied.

"Hmph! No matter whether they are aliens or those so-called powerful beings from the upper realm! In short, this practice of sacrificing ordinary mortal spirits alive is extremely disgusting and shameful! It can be said to be utterly unscrupulous! If I knew who is behind this, I will definitely not let him go!" Yan Xiaohuang said with a sneer.

Next, Yan Xiaohuang searched in the ruins of the ancient city for a long time. After finding nothing, he did not stay for too long. After setting a fire that burned the entire ruins of the ancient city to ashes, he set out again to find the interstellar ferry.

Fortunately, this time it was relatively smooth. After walking for a short while, Yan Xiaohuang successfully found the teleportation formation leading to the next boundary star. Then the group left the Death Star and headed towards the next boundary star.

According to Wu Buzhi, although there are ancient stars with traces of life on the road to immortality, they are extremely rare. Among the 9981 stations, most of them are dead stars. Yan Xiaohuang's trip was exactly as the other party expected. When he walked out of the interstellar teleportation array again, he looked around and found that it was still a dead star.

In response, Yan Xiaohuang shook his head, didn't think much about it, and continued on his way.

In the following days, Yan Xiaohuang continued to cross the interstellar teleportation array and moved forward along the ancient road. After passing eight or nine dead stars in a row, he finally encountered the second ancient star with life.

......

On the nameless island, Yan Xiaohuang walked forward aimlessly. He had learned from the stone tablet outside the teleportation array that this ancient star was called Tianhong Star. It was the second ancient star with life he had encountered after Taichu.

The only thing that made him speechless was that although this ancient star was said to have life, he had not encountered any living creature until now.

"This damn place is barren! Are there really any living creatures here? How come I haven't seen even a single person after walking for so many days?" Yan Xiaohuang said depressedly.

"Don't be anxious. Maybe this island itself is an uninhabited desert island. You can go to other islands to have a look!" said Mr. Meng.

"That's right! Since we haven't met anyone, let's take the initiative to find someone! Since the stone tablet says that there is life on this boundary star, it must be right!" Meng Wan'er also echoed after hearing this.

In response to this, Yan Xiaohuang sighed without saying anything, and then continued to move forward. He planned to try again. If he didn't encounter any living creatures again, he would go to a few other small islands to have a look.

An unknown amount of time had passed. Just when Yan Xiaohuang was completely disappointed and ready to leave the island, he finally heard the fluctuation of the breath of life coming from the front.

"Shit! There's someone here!"

Seeing this, Yan Xiaohuang's face finally showed a long-lost look of joy, and he immediately ran quickly forward.
