Chaos God's Nest

Chapter 317 Emperor’s Heart

"this!"

At this moment, Gu Qinghan was so frightened that she was speechless. Looking at the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but cover her mouth.

Yan Xiaohuang was not in a much better condition. His expression was extremely solemn and he was speechless for a long time.

In front of me, I saw a black cage made of some kind of divine iron. Inside it, a huge blood-red heart was slowly wriggling. Blood was flowing from it, dyeing the rocks below it red.

This bloody heart was somewhat strange. It seemed that because it had been soaked in the blood flowing down from it for too long, the rock ground underneath it had already metamorphosed. It was emitting shining light like pieces of bloody gems, illuminating the entire dungeon.

"Boom!"

The strange sound came again. This time, Yan Xiaohuang finally knew where it came from. It was the sound of the beating of the huge heart in front of him.

"This...this..." Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but stare in astonishment, "Just the beating can make people feel their souls tremble and their hearts jump with fear. Could it be that some peerless powerhouse is suppressed here?"

"It is rumored that in the ancient times, there was a peerless demon who was suppressed in the north. I didn't expect it to be true!" Gu Qinghan said with his eyebrows slightly frowned.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang's expression changed and he asked, "So, this heart could be that of the great demon you mentioned?"

"I think it's almost correct!" Gu Qinghan replied in a deep voice.

"If that's the case, then why is only the heart suppressed here? What about the other parts? Why can't we see them?" Yan Xiaohuang asked again.

Hearing this, Gu Qinghan slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific situation. After all, it's just a rumor. I think that with the strength of that great demon, he shouldn't be suppressed here so easily. The reason for this situation must be that something unexpected happened!"

Yan Xiaohuang was silent, then turned his head and looked at the slowly moving heart again. After a long while, he whispered to Meng Lao, "Do you know the origin of this thing, Meng Lao?"

Hearing this, Elder Meng did not answer directly, but remained silent for a long time before slowly replying: "If I am not mistaken, this should be that person's thing!"

"That one?" Yan Xiaohuang was a little confused and asked hurriedly, "What do you mean by that one? Who is it?"

Seeing Yan Xiaohuang asking again, Elder Meng also sighed, and then said with emotion: "Ask the endless demon path, who is the master of the rise and fall? It only makes billions of demon cultivators in the world bow down and kowtow! With a magic knife Jiuli, he killed the aliens on the other side and made them tremble with fear. He is the number one demon in the ages, the Demon Ancestor! Of course, some people also call him the Demon Lord, but no matter what, he is considered a person who suppressed an era. He can be regarded as a brilliant talent, unrivaled in ancient and modern times!"

"Demon Lord?"

Hearing what Elder Meng said, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but tremble. In a trance, a tall figure appeared in his mind. It was a man with an extraordinary handsome face, standing above the sky, surrounded by endless demonic energy. At this moment, he was looking at him with a smile.

"Is it actually him?" Thinking of this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but say to himself.

He still remembered the time in Huagu Demon Realm when he fought with Mo Pan, the Holy Son of the Heavenly Demon Cult in the lower realm. He had seen a ray of the Demon Lord's will, which left a deep impression on him, simply because the memory was still fresh.

"What? Have you also heard his story?" Hearing Yan Xiaohuang say this, Old Meng couldn't help but ask.

"Yes!" Yan Xiaohuang nodded, then smiled and explained: "To be honest, I have seen the true face of that person. It was a ray of will summoned by his successor!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Old Meng couldn't help but be surprised. Even for him, who had lived for a long time, the knowledge of those powerful people from the ancient times was just hearsay in his mind. He had never seen their true appearance. Yan Xiaohuang had actually seen them. He was extremely lucky.

"What are you thinking about?" At this moment, Gu Qinghan noticed that Yan Xiaohuang was acting strangely and couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang just ended his conversation with Elder Meng, and then replied: "I wasn't thinking about anything, I was just thinking about the owner of this heart! It's amazing that after such a long time since his death, his heart can still beat like a living thing!"

"Well, as you said, this is indeed amazing! I think those ancient powerful men have already broken through the shackles of time and years. If they hadn't encountered other situations, it would be difficult for their bodies and souls to be destroyed!" Gu Qinghan said calmly.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was about to speak again, but he did not expect that a shaking feeling suddenly came from the underground cave.

Rumble!

A dull loud noise was heard, and then the entire cave began to shake, as if it was about to collapse. Seeing this, the expressions of the two men changed drastically, and then without any hesitation, they quickly fled out of the cave.

Although the corridor leading to the outside world was very long, the two had walked through it once before they came here, so they escaped extremely quickly. In less than a few breaths, they had successfully escaped from the dungeon, and then flew up one after another and went far away outside the rift.

Just when the two of them reached the safe area, they saw a terrifying pressure emanating from the rift behind them. Then, rolling black magic fog overflowed from the rift and enveloped them in all directions. For a moment, it covered the sky within a radius of 100 miles.

At the same time, thousands of red beams of light shone from below, straight up to the sky. Wherever the light reached, everything was annihilated, and the void collapsed in pieces! The law that contained the meaning of destruction was even more frightening. Indistinctly, it gave people the feeling that some great terror was about to come out of it.

Yan Xiaohuang could not help but be terrified by this, his face was terribly gloomy. If the two of them had not escaped quickly enough, they would have been completely swallowed up by the ruthless pressure and died.

"Boom boom boom!"

It was at this moment that the sound of the Demon Ancestor's heartbeat was heard again in the void, and this time it was many times stronger than before. Even though Yan Xiaohuang and the others had isolated themselves with their magic power at the first moment, they could still hear it very clearly in their ears. As a result, they felt their souls trembling and their bodies almost shattered.

"It's dangerous here, stay away from it!" Yan Xiaohuang's face was terribly gloomy, and he hurriedly said to Gu Qinghan beside him.

Hearing this, the latter nodded, and then the two of them fled into the distance again without saying a word.

This rift was too strange. After the two of them had rushed for hundreds of miles again, they could faintly hear bursts of terrifying howling sounds coming from it. They were so shrill and terrifying that they made people's hearts palpitate.

"Ow!"

Along with strange roars, terrifying and ferocious figures began to appear in the black fog that permeated the sky above the rift valley.

These creatures look very strange, with green faces, fangs, and scales on their skin. They look like Yakshas crawling out of hell, baring their fangs and claws, roaring loudly, and struggling to rush out of the black fog towards the outside world.

"They are the ancient monsters recorded in the northern mythology!! They actually exist!" Seeing this, Gu Qinghan couldn't help but exclaimed, with unspeakable fear and horror revealed in his beautiful eyes.

"Ancient monster? What is that?" Yan Xiaohuang frowned and asked upon hearing this. It was not difficult to hear from Gu Qinghan's words that this so-called ancient monster must be some extraordinary existence, otherwise it would not only exist in the myths passed down in the north.

Gu Qinghan's expression was terribly gloomy at the moment. After hearing Yan Xiaohuang's question, she immediately replied, "I also heard it from my master. It is said that in the early days of the ancient times, there were monsters in the north of Tianhong Star, causing great suffering to the people! Until later, an incomparable strong man descended from the sky and suppressed all the monsters in the north. That incomparable strong man was also honored as the emperor by the creatures in the north at that time!"

"emperor?"

Yan Xiaohuang was stunned when he heard this. This was the first time he heard such a name. However, after thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but have some doubts.

If, as Gu Qinghan said, there were terrifying monsters suppressed here, why did the Demon Ancestor's Heart appear? What if what Elder Meng said was not true?

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but feel a little confused. He immediately sent a voice message to Meng Lao again and asked, "Meng Lao! You said earlier that the heart was the heart of the Demon Ancestor. Can you confirm it?"

"Of course it's true!" Hearing this, Elder Meng also replied with great certainty, "To tell you the truth, the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect in the upper realm is the immortal Taoism passed down by the Demon Ancestor. When I was alive, I was the deacon elder of the Blood God Sect. I have been to the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect more than once to communicate and discuss Taoism with the masters of the magic path there! And there, I have seen the power of the laws left by the Demon Ancestor more than once, so I am very familiar with the Demon Ancestor's aura!"

Hearing what Elder Meng said, Yan Xiaohuang's mind became even more confused. For the situation before him, it was really difficult for him to connect the ancient demon and the Demon Ancestor together. After all, there was really no rigid connection between the two.

Just as Yan Xiaohuang lowered his head in deep thought, he suddenly heard Gu Qinghan's surprised voice beside him.

"Look!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang immediately looked up and saw that, as Gu Qinghan had said, the monsters had indeed retreated, shrouded in black fog, and began to shrink into the rift valley.

"What's going on? Why are they retreating again?" Yan Xiaohuang was puzzled and said in surprise.

Just as Yan Xiaohuang was puzzled, he suddenly heard an extremely shrill voice coming from the void. It seemed to be filled with boundless anger and resentment, and said in an almost roaring tone: "Emperor Xin! How long are you going to suppress us?"

As soon as the words fell, the entire sky darkened again. The moonlight, which was already dim due to the day-long falling snow, could no longer shine through here. The entire north was shrouded in darkness again.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang and the other person couldn't help but look at each other. They both saw unspeakable shock and panic in each other's eyes.

"Boom boom boom!"

Just as Yan Xiaohuang was about to speak, he heard the beating sound of the Demon Ancestor's heart coming from the void again. This time, the rhythm of its beating was extremely rapid, no longer as slow as before. Along with it, there was also a terrifying pressure, as huge as the sea, with the momentum to swallow all directions, covering all directions.

The pressure was too great, and it enveloped all directions at an extremely fast speed. In just a moment, it had already attacked Yan Xiaohuang and the other two. Seeing this, Yan Xiaohuang reacted quickly. Without saying a word, he pulled up Gu Qinghan, who was still in a daze, and fled away again.

This time, he ran thousands of miles away in one breath, and only stopped slowly after he felt that the pressure had weakened and it was unlikely to affect the two of them anymore.

Afterwards, Yan Xiaohuang wiped the sweat off his forehead before turning to Gu Qinghan beside him and asked, "Why were you standing there just now? Why didn't you run?"

Hearing this, Gu Qinghan finally came to her senses from her trance and looked at Yan Xiaohuang. A strange emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she said: "I... I just..."

She was a little careless just now, and she forgot to use her internal energy to resist the terrifying pressure the moment it came. Therefore, no matter how much strength she mobilized to resist, she could not move at all. If Yan Xiaohuang had not come to her rescue, she would have been crushed to pieces by the terrifying pressure.

Before Gu Qinghan finished explaining, Yan Xiaohuang waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright! You don't need to say anything more. You should be thankful that I'm here with you this time. Otherwise, you would be dead!"

After saying that, Yan Xiaohuang turned his head and looked into the distance again. There, above the sky, there seemed to be two invisible forces fighting each other, and bursts of roars resounded through the sky. Faintly, Yan Xiaohuang heard the strange voice again.

"Emperor's Heart! You can't suppress me! My master has granted me the power of immortality. My body is eternal and my mind is indestructible! Even you couldn't do it in your heyday, let alone today? Hahaha!"

When the strange voice came, this time, even the void was shaken, which shows how terrifying its strength is.

"Humph!"

At the same time, as his voice fell, a cold snort came from the other side.

I think the person who made this sound was the so-called Emperor Heart mentioned by that strange creature.

At this moment, Yan Xiaohuang suddenly understood something. Thinking about the conversation between the two parties just now, he couldn't help but make some speculations.

"Could it be that the great demon who was suppressed in the North and the ancient demon are actually the same person, and the peerless strong man in the so-called myth who is revered as the emperor by the people of the North is the Demon Ancestor?"

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly. After all, the current situation, as he had just speculated, was indeed the most reasonable explanation.

However, there was one thing he still couldn't understand. The Demon Ancestor was so powerful, why couldn't he completely suppress this monster even in his prime? Perhaps it had something to do with the master that the strange monster had just mentioned!

According to Yan Xiaohuang's inference, the master mentioned by the strange monster could not be the Chaos Immortal Emperor. Although the Chaos Immortal Emperor was also very powerful, the Demon Ancestor was also at the same level as him in the past, so it was impossible for him to be unable to suppress this monster.

In this case, there is only one possibility!

That is, behind this boundless terror, there may be something even more terrifying!
