Chapter 110 The Dilapidated Palace
Chapter 110 The Dilapidated Palace
The attack landed on Ye Xiao, making him groan in pain as he completely passively endured the attack. At the same time, he was sent flying. Blood kept gushing out of his mouth.
"Am I going to die here?"
He forcefully endured the pain all over his body as he muttered to himself. His eyes were filled with unwillingness, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a bitter smile.
Just at this moment, as if the Lotus of Chaos felt Ye Xiao's unwillingness and sensed the perilous situation he was in, it trembled a little inside his sealed Universe. And the next instant, a surging savage aura was released from Ye Xiao's body, suppressing the aura of this horrible Chaos Beast.
However, in the end, this was only aura, not any form of attack. Although this aura caused the Chaos Beast to pause and tremble in fear, but more than fear, greed could be seen in its intelligent eyes.
Yes, greed!
It is because the aura of Lotus of Chaos was too attractive to the Chaos Beast.
When Ye Xiao saw this, he immediately understood the moment the aura will disappear, the beast will attack him once again.
Ye Xiao knew the first priority in this situation. He has to heal. Thus, he immediately used the Life Recovery ability numerous times on his own body, completely recovering from any form of injury.
Ye Xiao did not want to continue fighting. Otherwise, if the aura of Lotus of Chaos disappear, it would be impossible for him to escape from this beast. Thus, Ye Xiao took the opportunity to escape once again, teleporting times and times again and flying at high speeds.
However, Ye Xiao stopped halfway through.
Because it was a cliff in front of him.
One more step would be the bottomless abyss, but behind him was a deadly demon beast!
Ye Xiao had a bitter smile on his face.
"Roar!"
The Chaos Beast raised its head and let out a long roar, indicating that Ye Xiao had nowhere to run.
However, Ye Xiao still had a smile on his face. He looked at the Chaos Beast and smiled, "Bastard, even if I have to jump off the cliff, I will never let you eat me. Remember, if I am not killed, no matter how long it takes, I will come back for you. At that time, no one would be able to save you" Ye Xiao spoke with a bitter smile before his expression turned cold, so cold that could cause any person to shiver.
As for why Ye Xiao chose to jump off the cliff instead of teleporting away, it is because even if he teleport to a different place, it would be impossible for him to escape from this Major Saint Beast.
After all, because of the incredible stability of space and low strength, his teleportation range was not that big.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao jumped off the cliff.
The Chaos Beast didn't move forward. There was even a trace of fear in its eyes. All greed had long disappeared.
This fear did not come from the previous aura that Ye Xiao's body released or anything related to Ye Xiao. It was as if there was something beneath the cliff that this Chaos Beast was afraid of.
After circling for a few rounds, it shook its head, turned around, and swiftly left.
.....
At the top of Red Star Mountain, in the cultivation ground where Emperor Star Forest once cultivated, there was a statue of a mighty human in armor and a stone sword. The eyes of this statue were closed.
This statue was shining brightly with blue light.
Right at the foot of the statue, two girls were sitting cross-legged with closed eyes. Their bodies were also shining with the same blue light.
These two girls were surprisingly Xue Yu and Yan Mulan, the two assassin girls with ice and fire-attributed bodies.
And from the looks of it, they were currently receiving the inheritance of Emperor Star Forest.
Suddenly, as if triggered by something, the statue shook heavily. However, this disruption did not alarm the two girls for some reason. As if they did not feel any tremor on earth, they kept their eyes closed and received the inheritance of Emperor Star Forest.
The statue of Emperor Star Forest suddenly opened its eyes, revealing blue stones embedded within. But for some special reason, vitality could be seen in these stone eyes. They were very much lifelike.
A voice too unreal to be real sound in the surroundings.
"Someone has entered fallen in that place. I hope he is lucky enough to not obtain the Demon Emperor's inheritance. Just to hide the Demon Emperor's inheritance from the world, I specially created the abyss. I did not expect someone to still go there!"
After that, along with the sound's disappearance, the statue's eyes slowly looked at the two girls before closing.
As for the two girls, they were still receiving Emperor Star Forest's inheritance, completely oblivious to what just happened. They did not even seem to have heard of Emperor Star Forest's voice.
It was strange.
.....
Ye Xiao fell continuously. He had already experienced the feeling of being on the verge of death many times when he was still walking the path to supremacy in the Heavens, the Source Universe. He was not afraid of anything. He knew there might have a chance at survival if he jumped, but if he did not jump, he would definitely die under the claw of that ferocious Chaos Beast!
As Ye Xiao kept falling, he suddenly felt being pierced by cold energy coming from the bottom of the cliff. It was so cold that he almost lost consciousness.
"It's so cold…"
Ye Xiao's eyes slowly started getting heavy and he felt like losing consciousness. But he bite his lips and kept himself awake and focused. When his body was cold to the extreme, his blood congeal and his body become stiff; this was a sign of death. While Ye Xiao was in a daze, his Divine Sense suddenly discovered something very strange, causing his expression to freeze.
This is because he saw a palace at the bottom of the cliff. Although it was dilapidated, it still exuded a majestic aura.
Ye Xiao suddenly came back to his senses and remembered that he was now a Chaos Spirit Realm warrior, he could fly. There is simply no need for him to continue falling down.
"Am I a fool? Why did I forget something this common?"
Ye Xiao frowned and muttered. However, he was completely unaware of the fact that it was not his fault for not thinking of flying before. It is just that he was affected by the dark aura which caused his thinking process to become extremely slow.
Shaking his head, Ye Xiao immediately used his Chaos Energy to control his falling speed and slowly descended to the bottom of the cliff. Then he looked at the palace that was right in front of him.
Previously, when he was still on top of the cliff, he looked down and what he saw was a deep abyss. He could not see or feel anything here.
But now, a mysterious palace with a majestic aura appeared in front of his eyes.
He immediately understood that this palace has a story to tell.
Furthermore, it was also attracting his attention, as if something inside was calling him.
The palace that was reflected in his eyes caused Ye Xiao to become absent-minded for a short moment.
Even though it looked incredibly dilapidated, it had a faint majestic aura to it that caused people to feel deeply shocked.
Could it be that there really is some secret here?
Thinking of this, Ye Xiao slowly stepped forward and pushed open the door to the palace.
Surprisingly, the door of this dilapidated palace did not cause a single noise during the opening. It made Ye Xiao feel very strange.
When Ye Xiao stepped inside the palace, although there was clearly no one, he felt as though there were thousands of men fighting a fierce battle.
Although the palace was in ruins, one could still see the shadow of its once glory in the midst of the ruins. As Ye Xiao walked inside, a terrifying chilling aura surrounded him.
Ye Xiao's expression immediately changed. He wanted to leave, but the doors of the palace suddenly closed with a loud boom.
In an instant, Ye Xiao fell into darkness, complete darkness. There was not a single source of light in this darkness that could guide his path ahead. At the same time, Ye Xiao felt very strange, something dark and gloomy.
He didn't like this feeling very much, it made him feel uneasy.
But he could do nothing about it at the moment.
Just as Ye Xiao was about to use the Nine Forms of Universe Essence Flame so that he could at least get a source of light in this darkness, the flames lit up the palace, stopping Ye Xiao from wasting his energy doing meaningless things.
