Chapter 1426 The Powerful Steel Creature

"General Yuwen, look, it's human remains!" Gao Chong held a human skull in his hand, surprised. "Kunpeng said that the Luo family are of human blood. Look at this skull; the being who owned it was a peerless Immortal Emperor in life!"

"Let's go. Following the ruins of this battlefield, let's see what's ahead!" Gao Chong threw away the skull in his hand and looked forward. Yuwen Chengdu casually tossed away the white shard he was holding and followed Gao Chong's pace.

Along the way, the mountains and rivers were shattered, and traces of terrifying killing intent remained everywhere. Some powerful immortal treasures, even broken and after countless ages, still possessed astonishing killing power as they lay embedded in the earth.

"What power in the Emperor Ruins deep within this ancient star road could allow Luo Zun, a being of the same magnitude as these giants, to gain overwhelming power in just ten million years, forcefully annihilating Kunpeng Saint Emperor and suppressing the Chaos Demon Ape?" As they walked, looking at the tragic ancient battlefield, Yuwen Chengdu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. It was too powerful. A lingering sword intent almost severed his head. He, who now controlled seventy-four Emperor's Destinies, could forcefully annihilate an Immortal Emperor who controlled eighty-two Emperor's Destinies standing before him, yet that lingering sword intent had directly posed a fatal danger to him.

"Screech!"

Gao Chong reached out to touch a broken war blade, but before his finger could make contact, his palm was cut open, and several drops of Emperor's blood splashed out. Startled, Gao Chong quickly withdrew his hand and looked at the broken war blade with wide, trembling pupils.

"Judging by the size of the broken blade, it should be the war weapon of the Supreme Saint Emperor Luo Zun. Neither the Chaos Demon Ape nor the Supreme Saint Emperor Luo Zun perished in the river of history. Even after such a long time, these war weapons still maintain their terrifying sharpness. It's truly unimaginable how powerful they were in the Immortal Ancient Era!" Yuwen Chengdu said with dread, looking at Gao Chong's bleeding hand.

One had to know that the four great giants of the Immortal Realm today only controlled over seventy Emperor's Destinies. Even the ancestors of the four great races likely couldn't achieve the sharpness that this broken blade released.

Half an hour later, they walked on the ground, not daring to travel through the air carelessly. Suddenly, a flowing reflection like water appeared ahead. The two of them quickened their pace and, after a while, saw that it was still-warm blood, condensed into a small river. As the wind gently stirred it, an astonishing surge of blood energy erupted, forcing Yuwen Chengdu and Gao Chong to immediately activate the light of their armor to resist the terrifying radiance of the blood energy.

The flowing river of blood carried waves of heat, like freshly erupted lava, burning Yuwen Chengdu and Gao Chong's cheeks with a stinging pain. It was unknown whose blood this was, but in the core of this ancient battlefield, even a single drop from this river of blood could annihilate the current four great giants of the Immortal Realm.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

Sounds like armor colliding echoed. Yuwen Chengdu and Gao Chong stared at the river of blood, their pupils suddenly contracting. With a gurgling sound, something terrifying stirred within the river of blood. A gush of blood flowed out, and a giant creature resembling black steel emerged from within the river. Its shape was like a human wearing heavy armor.

Clang!

The black steel creature stepped onto the ground, and the resulting tremors almost swept Yuwen Chengdu and Gao Chong away. The two dared not breathe, watching as the black steel creature observed them for a long time before slowly walking back in the direction they had come. Only after a considerable time, when they could no longer hear the sound of colliding steel, did they let out a long sigh of relief.

"What in the world was that thing?" Gao Chong gasped, truly astonished by its power. Just standing there, its erupting aura alone could suppress them. What shocked them most was that it wasn't a living being, but a fearsome killing weapon, like a puppet, that someone had refined and placed in this river of blood.

"Such powerful blood energy, yet this steel creature could withstand it. Its original defense must be unimaginable," Yuwen Chengdu said, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. A single drop of blood from this river could annihilate the current four great giants, but it was like a mere hot spring to this steel creature, having no destructive effect whatsoever.

"Who created it?"

"The Chaos Demon Ape? Or the Supreme Saint Emperor Luo Zun?" Gao Chong said grimly, looking in the direction the steel creature had disappeared. Their journey along the ancient star road had been relatively normal, but once they entered here, everything surpassed their comprehension. On this ancient battlefield, they were no longer supreme giants or Immortal Emperors but felt like ants, cautiously treading on this ancient land.

Thump, thump, thump!!

Clang!

"Who?"

At the spot where Gao Chong's palm had been cut, Emperor Tianhuang suddenly looked up, gripping his supreme treasure, the Heaven-Shaking Bell. He stared ahead, the clanging sounds vibrating through every cell of his body. The atmosphere grew heavier, and a pair of blood-red pupils appeared at the edge of his vision, swaying left and right like a pair of burning candles. Su Dan Novel Network

"Who? Get out!" he roared. He couldn't sense any life aura from that direction. When the figure became clear, Emperor Tianhuang was stunned. It was a colossal being, encased in thick, clunky steel, moving like a torrent across the land. The swaying crimson orbs he had just seen were at the creature's eye level, but they were not eyes, but two clusters of blood-red light.

"Emperor!"

"Ruins!"

The steel creature stopped and stiffly spat out the two words, "Emperor Ruins!" With a roar, the two blood-red light clusters shot out two terrifying red beams. Immeasurably powerful, they drew upon the countless broken immortal treasures of this ancient battlefield, and the condensed red beams directly struck Emperor Tianhuang!

"No!"

"No!"

Emperor Tianhuang roared. The moment he was locked onto by the blood-red light, he couldn't move. He couldn't even mobilize a sliver of Emperor's might on his person. The Heaven-Shaking Bell, this supreme treasure, shattered under the impact of the blood-red light and scattered in all directions. This supreme giant, who controlled seventy-two Emperor's Destinies, was easily annihilated like dust under the sweep of the blood-red light!

Clang!

The steel creature twisted its stiff neck and spat out four words: "Emperor Ruins! Damn it!"

"Hum~~~"

In the great hall of Emperor Burial Mountain, Supreme Saint Emperor Luo Zun, also known as "Your Excellency" by the four giant ancestors, instantly opened his eyes and looked towards the direction of the Chaos Demon Ape's seal.
