Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 790 - Ancient Battlefield

Atop the towering stele, two characters were carved with vigorous strokes—Zui Ri.

It was just a simple pair of characters, containing not a trace of the Great Dao Laws.

The stele stood there, quietly, as if it had endured countless years, allowing the fiery waves to lash against it, exuding an indescribable sense of ancientness.

"Why would there be characters of the Human Race within the tomb of the Divine Race?!"

"Could it be that someone has entered this Divine Tomb before?"

"Is it that Mo Wujie?" Qinchuan suddenly thought, considering Mo Wujie's unique abilities to traverse different Domains—if he could enter the Divine Tomb, it certainly was a possibility.

No, this stele, although devoid of the essence of the Great Dao, clearly appears to be from a time long past, not a masterpiece of the last million years.

As Qinchuan pondered, he walked toward the stele.

Qinchuan stretched out his hand, intending to touch the characters on the stele.

However, the moment his fingers barely touched the stele, his body shook violently.

He felt a disturbance from within the space of Dao Lotus.

The next instant, a withered ancient corpse appeared.

The Divine Corpse with the bloodline of the Divine Race, originally found in the great tomb, once again emerged from the space of Dao Lotus on its own.

This fellow had lain quietly in the space of Dao Lotus since merging with the Divine Heart found in the tomb of Dao Palace, rarely making an appearance.

But every time he did appear, it was always for a specific reason.

In the tomb of Dao Palace, this fellow came out on his own, not only finding its own head, but also leading Qinchuan and the others to that Ancient Bronze Casket.

In the Ancient Realm, he took the initiative to leave the space of Dao Lotus, helping Qinchuan open a jade box guarded by a charm demon and thus obtaining the Primordial Stone.

Now, this fellow had taken the initiative to come out again.

At this moment, Qinchuan did not act rashly; he was prepared to see what this fellow wanted to do.

After appearing, the withered Divine Corpse did not stay but made straight for the center of the island.

"What is there in the center of this island that is attracting him!"

Immediately, Qinchuan and his companions followed the Divine Corpse from a distance.

The island didn't look very large from afar, but once they ventured inside, they realized it had hidden depths. Along the way, black reef stones were piled on both sides, and as they ventured deeper into the island, Qinchuan began to sense an unusual aura.

The air around them seemed to inexplicably become more chillingly bleak.

The Divine Corpse was not flying, but speeding along on foot, leading the way.

After an indeterminate amount of time, when Qinchuan estimated they were close to the center of the island, the Divine Corpse stopped in front of a huge black rock.

"What is he doing?"

Ji Huo'er stared at the actions of the Divine Corpse and asked curiously.

As the Divine Corpse stood before the massive block of black rock, it suddenly stretched out its gaunt hand to gently touch the boulder.

The gesture looked like that of an old friend reuniting after many years, exceedingly cautious, as if afraid of damaging the boulder.

"I know now!" Qinchuan's eyes shone with fervent light, seeing through the reason, and he whispered.

"Big brother, what do you know?" Ji Huo'er asked curiously: "Do you recognize this huge rock?"

"This is not an ordinary boulder, but one transformed from the body of a member of the Human Race!" Qinchuan replied.

```

"What? You're saying, you're saying this is a corpse?!" Ji Huo'er exclaimed, covering her small mouth in shock.

Ling Xian'er's beautiful eyes shifted, staring intently at the protruding rock, as she also began to speak, "Judging by its shape, this large rock does indeed resemble a person."

"But even if this huge stone is a corpse, what connection do they have with each other?" Bai Ruoxi furrowed her brows slightly.

"Fairy Bai, you're favored by the Heavenly Dao, insightful of the world; even my secrets are exposed before your eyes. Can't you also see through their connection?" Qinchuan asked.

Bai Ruoxi shook her head. Even though she could see through all things in the world, she couldn't discern any connection between this divine corpse and the rocks.

Even this divine corpse, she couldn't see through.

"Could it be that this rock is transformed from his lover?" Ji Huo'er speculated wildly.

While everyone was guessing, the divine corpse once again rose and dashed off into the distance. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Qinchuan and the others once more activated their movement techniques, quickly following.

As Qinchuan and the others followed the divine corpse deeper into the island, more and more humanoid rocks began appearing in front of them.

These rocks, whether lying down or standing upright, whether their heads were tragically smashed into the ground, or facing the sky roaring in unwillingness, had thousand odd poses, very peculiar, scattered sporadically along the way.

"These people must have all experienced a great battle in their lifetimes!"

At this point, Qinchuan and the others finally realized that they had entered an ancient battlefield.

These huge rocks scattered across the island were what remained of the fallen people from that time.

And there they roughly speculated that this divine corpse had once entered this place, and even fought side by side with many of the powerful beings now turned into massive rocks.

"It seems that the stele on the shore of the island, carved with Human Race inscriptions, comes from these Human Race warriors' legacy."

That was also the reason why the divine corpse ran out from Dao Lotus's space as soon as Qinchuan touched the stele.

Qinchuan and the others continued to move forward, with more and more towering rocks rising all around them.

At the same time, the ground began to be littered with a large number of rusted weapons, which crumbled into dust upon a light touch.

"How terrifying was the battle that took place here to have shattered the divinity out of these divine artifacts and reduce them completely to mortal instruments?"

These rusted-looking weapons originally should have been supreme divine weapons, but now, with their divinity gone and their spiritual energy scattered, they had turned into this sorry state.

It appeared that Qinchuan and the others had reached the central area of the battlefield, where not only were there a large number of huge rocks standing up, but there were also countless bones scattered around, with bone inscriptions that sparkled with brilliant light, which after countless years of tempering, had not decayed.

It was evident, those people had the power to reach heavens and pierce the earth in those days.

"What kind of fierce battle was this exactly?" Ji Huo'er muttered to herself, looking at two corpses near her, radiating shining bone inscriptions.

These two skeletons were entangled, each with an arm thrust into the other's chest.

In the end of their great battle, they fought with their utmost physical strength, and perished together.

The group passed through the center of the battlefield, when suddenly the view opened up in front of them.

A Divine Mansion, completely engulfed in roaring flames, suddenly appeared before their eyes.

In the center of the Divine Mansion, an extremely pure surge of Fire Element law shot into the sky.

Scarlet runes flickered, soaring into the clouds, with tiny flames burning and twinkling in the void, like countless fire lotuses spreading across the entire mansion, stunningly beautiful.

"That Fire Element legacy is right inside the Divine Mansion!" Qinchuan whispered.

"Could it be that these people waged war here to vie for the Fire Element legacy housed within the Divine Mansion?" Li Kaitian murmured to himself.

"Big brother, look, these remains, they all died facing that Divine Mansion."
