But these black and red gases were very weak, and dissipated as soon as they left the jade slip.
"It's the aura of Void demons!"
Jian Lan stepped in and looked at the three jade slips. "Are there still Void demon creatures alive in this sealed land?"
"Boom!"
Wang Le's jade slip flew up and shattered with a roar. This scene attracted the attention of the creatures from the four clans of the Hong family.
"Wang Fu, it seems your Wang family is also miscalculating!" Hong Shan said with a sneer.
"Hmph!"
Wang Fu's face sank. This time's ambush was more devastating than the loss in the North You Sea. The four clans of the Wang, Zhan, Jian, and Gu families had joined forces, and only Wang Yunxuan and Wang Zhuo remained, almost a complete annihilation.
"How are you guys? The damage caused by this red ribbon is getting worse and worse. Quickly replenish your divine power!" Wang Zhuo said, covered in blood.
"Look!"
"Isn't this that wooden sword??"
Wang Yunxuan, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, suddenly exclaimed in shock. The others followed. Wang Zhuo took out a blue spirit ball, which lit up a lot. Following the light, they saw the wooden sword, forged from Cheng Tianzhi Wood, which was suspended on the runes outside the palace, quietly lying in front of Wang Yunxuan.
"This is not that wooden sword. I cannot feel the aura of divine power in this wooden sword. Look at the cracks. This wooden sword has suffered a devastating blow, unlike the undamaged wooden sword outside!" Xia Xin Yu said.
"It's indeed not that one, but they look too similar. Why did the Immortal Lord forge so many wooden swords? Even though Cheng Tianzhi Wood has fallen, it is still the deity in the hearts of all beings in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces. How could the Immortal Lord do this?" Wang Zhuo refused to believe that the Immortal Lord would harm Cheng Tianzhi Wood, let alone destroy it so wantonly even after its true demise.
Dian Wei, Long Ju, and Yang Youji watched all this quietly. It had little to do with them. After a glance, the three of them looked up worriedly at the faint lamplight floating in the darkness in the distance.
"Let's hurry up and go. This lamplight could flicker out at any moment!"
Yang Youji said worriedly. If it went out, they would all be finished here. Su Dan Novel Network
"Let's go!"
Wang Zhuo pulled Wang Yunxuan up. The six of them walked intermittently, enduring countless bombardments of red ribbons along the way.
"Boom"
Half an hour later, several more terrifying red ribbons struck down. Wang Yunxuan, the proud son of the Wang family, finally could not hold on under the impact of one of these ribbons and turned into a mist of blood.
"Wang Yunxuan!!"
Wang Zhuo's eyes turned red. Even though Wang Yunxuan was his descendant, this was the future of the Wang family!
Not far away, Dian Wei and the other two were almost shedding their divine beast armors. The divine beast armors on their bodies were all releasing their last energy.
Finally, they reached the lamplight. At this moment, the lamplight extinguished, and the darkness in the world dissipated. The long-lost light fell upon the land. Dian Wei and the other two's armors had completely shattered. They were all covered in blood, as if they had just fought a desperate battle, barely hanging on by a thread.
As for Wang Zhuo and Xia Xin Yu, they were not much better, only slightly better than Dian Wei and the other two.
Without time to look around, the few of them quickly sat cross-legged, holding precious spiritual materials and continuously extracting divine power to nourish and repair their severely injured bodies and souls.
Three hours later, they finally got up from their recuperation and scanned their surroundings. The five of them were all stunned. After walking such a long distance and experiencing countless near-death encounters with the red ribbons, from the palace gate to the lamplight before them, it was only twenty Zhang apart.
What was before them was the real world. The moment they entered the palace gate, they must have entered another void formation. Only by walking out of the formation and reaching the lamplight could they truly enter this mysterious palace.
"Look!"
Long Ju exclaimed in fear. In front of the palace, there was a huge throne. The throne stood amidst thick black gas with a faint red hue.
On the huge throne sat a corpse identical to the creature carved on the palace gate earlier. The corpse was exceptionally well-preserved. This corpse wore no armor but a pure black dragon robe. He had a golden crown on his head, his eyes were tightly closed, and mysterious black runes slowly flowed on his eyelids. His feet were clad in black dragon-head boots.
"Could this be the body of the Void Demon leader?"
Dian Wei was shocked and unconsciously placed his hand on his chest. When he, Yang Youji, and Long Ju came, Yang Hao had given him a portrait of Li Yuanba. He had always remembered Yang Hao's words: when outmatched, he could use the portrait, which could suppress all enemies in the world!
The leader of the Void demons!
That was a supreme expert who had confronted the Immortal Lord!
Wang Zhuo couldn't help but look at Xia Xin Yu. If any of them could identify whether this corpse was that of the Void Demon leader, it would only be Xia Xin Yu. By the time she rose, that era was already nearing its end.
"This corpse is not the leader of the Void demons. I saw the Void Demon leader from afar during the battle in Changsheng City. He was very burly, like a human, not the ugly face before us." Xia Xin Yu shook her head and said with great certainty.
"Creak—creak—creak!"
Suddenly, the great hall trembled. The extinguished lamplight reignited with a puff. The corpse sitting on the throne suddenly burst into flames. They were green flames, ten Zhang high, reaching the very top of the hall.
Behind the corpse, the entire wall began to shake and split in two with a rumble. Inside, there was another colossal hall. This hall contained even more corpses of Void demon creatures, a total of ninety-one.
Several people calmed their minds and moved forward again. The same scene repeated eight times before it stopped. After walking out of the great hall, they were in an endless world of ice and snow, with jagged peaks piercing the clouds and thousands of peaks like divine swords plunging into the earth.
"What place is this again?"
"It feels like we've entered one cave-heaven world after another, like a cycle, with no end in sight?" Long Ju said solemnly.
"General Long is right. First, it was the dark space, and after several near-death experiences, then came the several halls storing the remains of Void demons. Coupled with the ice and snow world before us, who knows what lies ahead," Yang Youji said, looking at the magical, jagged peaks ahead.
"Look at that peak, doesn't it resemble the Immortal Lord's wooden sword we saw?"
