"Long Chen, what's wrong? Is it that the internal injury hasn't healed? Ziyan asked with concern.
Long Chen shook his head, his eyes scanning the surroundings, his gaze sharp as a blade: "I don't know what's wrong. Suddenly, I feel a sudden palpitation, as if a great danger is approaching. Xieyue, are you sure we won't be targeted?" Just
entering the ancient battlefield, Long Chen felt a wave of panic—a sensation he had never experienced before, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
But he couldn't quite explain exactly where he felt uncomfortable. If someone had been watching him, the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique should have triggered a response, but Long Chen hadn't felt that way.
"You two, if I used the dragon clan's secret technique to conceal your aura, there's no way you could be discovered.
Moreover, the soul power of the demon beast clan is not very strong. If we are targeted, it will be easy to sense it.
Your strong reaction is because of the battlefield? Could there be some secret hidden in this battlefield? Did you sense it? "Dragon Bone Evil Moon said. It was absolutely confident in its secret technique and could deceive the demon beast clan without any problem.
Moreover, it was extremely familiar with Long Chen's cultivation techniques, with terrifyingly strong perception. If someone targeted it, it would definitely sense it.
After a while, Long Chen's sensing slowly faded, and everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Long Chen smiled awkwardly, seemingly suffering from serious injuries as he sneaked into the ancient battlefield with Ziyan.
An hour before Long Chen and Ziyan entered, Mo Nian led the Dragon Blood Legion and had just finished harassing the ancient battlefield. The beasts inside were almost numb.
After Mo Nian and the others disrupted the laws of the Heavenly Dao, they left. The beast clan couldn't be bothered to waste energy chasing them, so they simply let them come and go, ignoring them as long as they didn't break into the core area.
As soon as Mo Nian and the others left, Long Chen and Ziyan came in. Taking advantage of the chaos of heaven and earth's laws and the lack of vigilance among the demon beast clan, it was very easy to sneak in.
"Long Chen, Qin Hun is in the northwest of the ancient battlefield, at a straight-line distance, the core area of the beast clan. We need to bypass it.
Although I can sense the soul of the zither, I still don't know the exact location. We have to work on it step by step. Ziyan transmitted her voice.
Long Chen nodded. Emperor Hanwei was the previous master of the Nanhai Qin, and she guarded this place. Back in the Dark War, the Nanhai Qin lost a soul of its zither, which might be related to her.
The two of them carefully traveled stealth, making a wide circle. Three days later, they circled to the rear of the distant battlefield. The battlefield was vast, littered with terrifying bones, showing just how brutal that battle had been.
Many of the skeletal bones remained intact, but their bones still emitted mysterious sounds. Ziyan said these were marks left after being destroyed by the sound attack. Even after tens of thousands of years, the lingering sound of the Joyful Dao still corroded their bones, aiming to completely erase their bones.
Among the five Great Emperors, Emperor Hanwei was a decisive and ruthless person, and also the most bloodthirsty and warlike among them.
Those who were slain and whose bones could still be preserved were at least at the Lord level; otherwise, they would have long since decayed.
The area Ziyan and Long Chen passed through was piled with piles of bones, making Long Chen's scalp tingle. In that battle, just how many powerful beings did Emperor Hanwei kill?
After moving forward for more than an hour, a tall mountain appeared ahead, formed from piles of corpses. As the mountain approached, countless strange sounds rang out, sending chills down one's spine. The sounds sounded like the wailing of a soul, filled with resentment and resentment.
"Long Chen, the soul of the zither is inside this Bone Mountain. Long Chen, what's wrong?" Ziyan suddenly noticed that Long Chen's expression had changed again, becoming somewhat frightening, and stars swirled in his eyes, looking extremely eerie.
"The sense of danger has returned, and it's an unprecedented danger. My Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique has developed a sensing effect. Beneath this soul, there may be a terrifying existence suppressing it.
If we take it away, then the terrifying existence will be released. Long Chen's expression was serious. The Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique was actually operating on its own. The sense of danger made his hair stand on end. This only indicated that Long Chen was already in extreme danger.
The two climbed up Bone Mountain and discovered that the core area of Bone Mountain was actually a deep pit. Within the pit lay a massive skull, spanning hundreds of thousands of miles in diameter, making it impossible to tell what kind of creature it was.
At the very center of the skull, a phantom floated above, with divine sounds reverberating. That shadow was identical to the Nanhai Qin—it was clearly the soul of the Nanhai Qin.
"What should we do?"
Ziyan's expression also changed. She hadn't expected things to turn out like this. If she took the soul of the zither, would the skull come back to life?
Long Chen didn't know what to do either. If he reclaimed his soul and released terrifying living beings, it would be a complete disaster.
Long Chen slowly approached the dry bone, and suddenly the Dragon Bone Xie Yue said, "This is the skull of the Void Beast. It has been dead for many years, and it's a newborn young beast." "
A newborn cub?" Long Chen was startled. Just born and already this big?
"Void beasts are ferocious beasts roaming the universe. Adult void beasts can swallow a star in one bite.
But the Void Beast couldn't possibly come to such a low-level plane; it must have been a corpse from the universe drifting here.
Strangely, this zither soul didn't seem to be suppressing it, because it was already dead, but it seemed to be drawing its power to nourish itself. "Dragon Bone Xie Yue asked in confusion.
"Not a suppression?"
Long Chen's heart skipped a beat, and in an instant, he understood something. He grabbed Ziyan and sent the Evil Moon of Dragon Bone slashing down into the void.
"Hurry, let's go, this is a trap."
"Boom!"
The void was split open. Long Chen, accompanied by a shocked Ziyan, had just entered the void when a terrifying force repelled him.
"Hahaha, now that you're here, don't even think about leaving again."
Suddenly, a burst of wild laughter echoed through the void, and Ziyan's expression changed instantly—it was the voice of the nine-headed lion.
As the nine-headed lion's wild laughter fell, the void twisted continuously, and one figure after another appeared.
The powerful warriors of the Beast Clan, Blood Clan, Undying Clan, and Demon Clan had completely surrounded this place, yet Ziyan even saw a powerful member of the Divine Clan.
The Nine-Headed Lion, Blood Fiend Demon Lord, Night Nether, Mo Luo Tianxing, and Long Aotian had all arrived, along with countless powerful figures from various races, surrounding the Bone Mountain layer upon layer like an iron barrel. The two of them were like birds trapped in a cage, unable to escape again.
"That's really ..." Ziyan's face turned pale, her cherry lips trembling—this was actually a trap.
"Ziyan, did you not expect this?"
Suddenly, a voice came. When she heard it, Ziyan felt as if struck by lightning. When she looked at that figure, she could hardly believe her eyes.
