Chapter 1264 The Power of Rules
What the Master of the Nether Realm held in his hands was not some other object, but the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow that was originally inside the bronze cauldron!
However, there was only one Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow in the bronze cauldron, while the Master of the Nether Realm now held as many as three.
The emergence of a Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow only occurred after a cultivator in the Nascent Soul realm died.
Each one represented the death of a Nascent Soul realm cultivator!
Three Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows… three Nascent Soul realms!
Chen Yang asked in surprise, "How can there be so many Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows?"
The Master of the Nether Realm asked in surprise, "You recognize this thing?"
"Jiang Jiantao came here before, specifically to get this thing."
"However, he only found one at that time."
"I found these three Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows later. I originally intended to take this thing out to give to him, but it seems there's no opportunity now."
"Do you want it?"
As he spoke, the Master of the Nether Realm actually handed the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow in his hand towards Chen Yang.
Chen Yang stared at the Master of the Nether Realm with wide eyes, dumbfounded. Was this guy really going to give it to him?
One had to know, the peak cultivators in the Combined Core realm, like the Winged Gods, had come to this spiritual domain and fought tooth and nail for opportunities, all for the sake of Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows?
If one could absorb the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow themselves, even if they couldn't break through to the Nascent Soul realm, they could still use the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow as a spiritual vein!
This kind of temptation was something no one could refuse.
But the Master of the Nether Realm's eyes were extremely pure.
It was as if if he truly asked for it, the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow would certainly come into his possession!
Chen Yang took a deep breath and shook his head with a dry laugh, "Didn't you say that the spiritual energy was being consumed too quickly and you needed Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows to replenish it?"
"If you give the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows to me, what will you do?"
The Master of the Nether Realm naturally saw the fervent gaze in Chen Yang's eyes and said, "Using this thing only lasts for a while. When I come back, it will be useless, and then I'll give it to you."
"Don't feel embarrassed. This thing is useless in my hands anyway."
…
Chen Yang naturally would not refuse such a thing. Just as the two were about to leave, Chen Yang curiously asked about the anomalies.
The Master of the Nether Realm had said before that these anomalies were caused by the death of one or a group of people.
Why would these people be here?
The Master of the Nether Realm pondered for a moment before telling Chen Yang what he knew.
"As far as my memory goes, this place has been like this for a very long time."
"Each anomaly is more like a projection of power."
"This power has been absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy to maintain its state."
"This is also why the spiritual energy storms around are so powerful, and I… your bronze cauldron controls these anomalies to prevent them from growing larger."
"Only in this way can the scope of the spiritual energy storm be contained."
As soon as he said this, Chen Yang immediately took out his token, "Then why is this thing so important?"
"So far, everyone who has entered has been struck and killed by heavenly lightning."
"Did you have a hand in this?"
Chen Yang's voice was very anxious.
However, the answer he received was something unexpected.
"How is that possible… Heavenly lightning is the power of rules. How could I interfere?"
"These tokens are all products of the anomalies, and they carry the aura of the anomalies."
"Only in this way, when you enter the spiritual energy storm, will the power of rules not reject you."
After this explanation, Chen Yang finally understood.
Everything around, the so-called spiritual energy, was essentially a manifestation of these anomalies.
Chen Yang guessed that the anomalies in the Nether Realm were remnants left behind from the battle between the Nether Realm and the Outer Realm Demonic Gods in ancient times.
Regarding the existence of Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows, Chen Yang also inquired carefully.
As expected, the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows were all found within the anomalies.
However, these things were hidden very deeply.
Even the Master of the Nether Realm had to search for a long time to find three.
The power within the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrows might even be the source of power for some of these anomalies.
After emerging from the anomalous space, Chen Yang looked back at the heavenly gate behind him, feeling a sense of emotion.
When they first entered this anomalous space, Chen Yang and Bei Xuan both thought that the news of the Nascent Soul graveyard was false.
But now, it seemed that this news was not only true!
It was not merely a Nascent Soul graveyard, but a tomb for many Nascent Souls.
It was even possible that it contained the resting places of more powerful cultivators.
However, just as Chen Yang was about to leave, he noticed that the surrounding spiritual energy storm was much stronger than before.
The Master of the Nether Realm by his side said helplessly, "After all, it's not me personally suppressing it, and your bronze cauldron is not a complete artifact. It's already remarkable that it can prevent the storm from expanding."
"I'll take you out!"
As the Master of the Nether Realm spoke, he reached out and wrapped Chen Yang and Bei Xuan in spiritual energy, flying directly outwards.
By now, the Master of the Nether Realm had a fixed appearance and voice.
Chen Yang found it strange that the other party's appearance somewhat resembled Jiang Taotian.
"By the way, the two people who came with you earlier are not far from here. Do you want to take them with us?"
Chen Yang froze for a moment, then smiled, "So you knew about me when I came in?"
"You've been watching me all along?"
The Master of the Nether Realm seemed to feel nothing strange about it and said, "Of course, I've always paid close attention to humans."
"Whenever humans come, I'll pay close attention."
"Besides, you helped me resolve a troublesome matter."
"Speaking of which, you were almost subjected to the punishment of the rules… I was the one who helped you then."
Chen Yang's mind raced, and after a moment, he recalled what matter it was.
It should have been when he used divination before, and the Master of the Nether Realm had helped him disperse the heavenly lightning.
Heavenly lightning is the power of rules!
Had the Master of the Nether Realm's strength already reached such a level?
When the three of them reached Suoluo Haar and Ruan Dongjun, they were both greatly startled.
Before the two could ask anything, the Master of the Nether Realm waved his hand and grabbed them, "The spiritual energy is gathering faster and faster, we need to leave quickly."
Looking at Chen Yang and the unconscious Bei Xuan beside him, Suoluo Haar immediately transmitted to Chen Yang, "Who is this?"
Suoluo Haar's eyes were filled with fear, as he could not see through this mysterious person.
A peak Combined Core realm cultivator?
Even a peak Combined Core realm cultivator would not possess such immense spiritual power.
He felt like a tiny lamb in front of the other party!
Chen Yang knew Suoluo Haar was afraid and comforted him, "A senior, don't worry, he's one of us."
However, just as they were about to leave the spiritual domain, Chen Yang spotted two familiar figures.
