Chapter 475: Chapter 426 Pyramid and Ancient Coffin!

Boom—

The battle erupted as Ye Chen and his companions soon encountered an incredibly terrifying demon being, towering at thirty feet tall, wielding a trident, with Demonic Qi billowing to the skies, astonishingly powerful, stronger than all previously encountered alien demons and Demonic Fierce Beasts, aptly called a King-level Alien Demon.

The Beiming Saint advanced to confront it, and a terrifying battle ensued.

Undoubtedly, the Beiming Palace King, the young Supreme Powerhouse of the Void King Level from the Beiming Family, outclassed his generation of Heavenly talents, ranking among the top three strongest youths of the new generation in the Heavenly Saint Domain; at this moment, he employed Sealing Techniques, creating vast expanses of ocean that surged forth and drowned the void, rumbling thunderously.

In Beiming, there exists a fish called the Roc!

It’s said that the Beiming Family is a descendant of the Roc bloodline from the Mythical Era, capable of executing the inherited Roc Supreme Divine Skill.

And the surname Beiming evolved from Beiming.

Oceans roared and churned, filled with endless chill turning into frost, covering everything, which was the Beiming Divine Sea, evolved by the Beiming Palace King.

Boom—

A colossal figure leaped out from the Beiming Divine Sea, creating waves hundreds of feet high—a gigantic Roc fish that dashed through the void and rapidly transformed, sprouting Divine Wings, turning into a supreme Roc striking the heavens, pouncing on the King-level demon being and initiating a fierce battle.

The Roc struck the heavens, fluttering across the Thirty-three Heavens at extreme speed, using a Supreme offensive Divine Skill and terrifying movement technique. The Roc rapidly shrank and merged with the Beiming Palace King, sprouting Roc Divine Wings; with a flap of the wings, they transcended common sense and achieved ultimate speed, matching Ye Chen’s Reverse Space Eight Steps.

With a swoosh, the wings, like Heavenly Blades, slashed across the sky, shredding several black scales from the Alien King-level demon, with evil blood splattering everywhere, creating a ringing that was incessant.

The Alien King-level demon roared furiously, wielding its trident to strike, bursting forth with terrifying black light, charging in all directions.

However, the Beiming Palace King’s speed was simply too fast, as if possessing the ultimate speed under heaven, making it impossible to even graze his clothing.

Ye Chen watched with twinkling eyes, deeply moved by such Divine Skills.

"Rumors have long said that the Beiming Family descends from the demon race Holy Spirit, the Roc. It seems this statement is true; Brother Beiming’s speed can indeed be called the fastest among kings," said Dao Chu, unable to hold back his admiration facing such incredible speed, nearly driving all great enemies to despair.

The Beiming Saintess, however, shook her head and chuckled. "Brother is joking. Our Beiming Family is not really descendants of the Roc. If that were the case, our Beiming Family could nearly become an Emperor Clan or Royal Family, and not merely just an Immortal Force. It was just our ancestors’ luck to have once chanced upon some of the Roc’s Divine Skills, which are not so remarkable to boast about."

Indeed, the Roc in the Mythical Era was no less prestigious than the Azure Dragon or White Tiger, those who created Heaven and Earth, and could stand alongside the Undying Immortal Phoenix and the World Tree, counted among the most powerful Holy Spirits between heaven and earth.

How could the descendants of the Roc be any less!

In the fierce battle, the Beiming Palace King dominated, further employing Supreme Divine Skills, forcefully pushing through the Six Harmonies and Eight Desolates, truly displaying a young Void King Supreme Powerhouse’s unparalleled Cultivation. Merging with the Roc, sprouting Roc Divine Wings, he instantaneously traversed through the void, reaching the front of the Alien King-level being and unleashing a terrible finishing blow.

Various powerful Divine Skills flowed endlessly, launched by him at full force; Divine Light covered the heavens, and the Beiming Divine Sea swept across, entrapping this Alien King-level demon.

Finally, after a terrifying intense battle, the Alien King-level demon, although very powerful, gradually succumbed to the Beiming Palace King, for he possessed the powerful secret treasures of the Beiming Family, absorbing the Heavenly Spiritual Energy continuously converting it into his Divine Power, his Treasure Techniques erupting powerfully, tearing its three bat wings apart, blood spraying, and even severing one of its arms.

The Alien King-level demon howled, also causing the Beiming Palace King to suffer injuries; his chest was torn open, flesh rotting, even the fresh blood turned pitch black, the injuries severe.

Yet the Beiming Palace King did not allow others to intervene, displaying the ultimate King-level combat power; he physically tore the Alien King-level demon in half, evil blood splashing, corroding a swath of buildings.

Unfortunately, the Divine Spirit of the King-level creature was obliterated without yielding any useful information, causing them to furrow their brows.

Although the deeper reaches of the ancient city grew more dangerous, it was undeniable that this area possessed more Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, some with medicinal ages over five thousand years, which several young Supreme Powerhouses obtained and shared.

At last, as they traversed across the vast ruins of the ancient city, nearly reaching the deepest part, they suddenly encountered countless demon beings, numbering in the hundreds and thousands, covering heaven and earth; all were alarmed and then enveloped Ye Chen and others, engaging in a desperate fight.

"Attack."

Facing numerous demon beings, Ye Chen and the others were solemn but not frightened. After all, most of these demon beings were merely at the demigod realm level, far from being a threat to them.

Boom—

The great battle erupted once again.

The fight, although bloody, indisputably resulted in the real young monarchs soaring forward as if they were reincarnations of divine beings. Their divine power burst forth, sweeping across the battlefield and leaving a trail of alien demon carcasses piled throughout the city district.

It was not just them; other inheritors of immortal forces who had penetrated deep into the ancient city district also encountered significant resistance. Countless alien demons rushed in like a massive army, enough to make anyone’s heart tremble.

If they were not all frighteningly powerful, able to claim kingship, any ordinary young powerhouse would merely be walking a path toward certain death.

In the end, after shedding blood all the way, leaving behind the corpses of countless alien demons, the young monarchs successfully broke through and pushed forward into the deepest parts of the ancient city district. What lay before them were but desolate ruins.

Although mists still swirled about this place, it was relatively clearer, with many areas distinctly visible.

Through the many remnants left on the ground, one could vaguely see the flourishing splendor of the past—a magnificent cluster of palace buildings stretching for tens to hundreds of miles, comparable to the imperial palace of an ancient country. It presumably belonged to a powerhouse from the Purple Mansion Sacred Land of yesteryears. Sadly, it had long been abandoned and occupied, now many times more dilapidated and unrecognizable.

At the very center of these ruined relics stood not a majestic divine palace but a pyramid, erected right at the center, immensely vast, even larger than mountains, constructed block by block out of bronze boulders.

Many young supreme powerhouses, including Ye Chen, stood on the outskirts of this ancient palace relic, gazing distantly at the archaic bronze pyramid at the center.

Somehow, everyone felt a chilling and terrifying sensation, as if some great horror was wafting through the air.

Ye Chen could sense the malignant aura in the area had suddenly strengthened manifold, causing unrest to the mind and heart. Even powerhouse beings like the Void Kings were not exempt.

"Quick, look, what is atop that pyramid?"

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, pointing at the tip of the pyramid. All the mighty figures looked intently and when they clearly saw everything, they all couldn’t help but gasp in cold breath.

For, atop the ancient pyramid’s apex was a giant bronze coffin, three zhang long, lying still across it. And the entire giant pyramid, from a distance, resembled a massive bronze altar, enshrining the bronze ancient coffin.

Instantly, everyone felt a chill dancing across their hearts.

Upon another look, there clearly were several giant pools, each a hundred zhang across, filled with countless dried-up skeletons stacked within. The blood within had long dried up, but one could still faintly see dark red traces of blood in the ancient giant pools.

This sight changed their complexions, as the giant pools seemed to be conducting a sacrifice with countless people’s fresh blood, venerating the bronze ancient coffin atop the pyramid altar.

It seemed as if countless beings that once lived in the towering city of the Purple Mansion Sacred Land were slaughtered, thrown into these giant pools, and drained of their blood for sacrificial purposes.

All the mighty figures felt a chill and rage but were also startled. What could possibly be within the bronze ancient coffin that the alien races would go to such lengths, sacrificing countless lives and blood?

Now, the bronze ancient coffin lay quietly atop the pyramid altar, as if sealed with dust, never having been opened.

They also saw atop the bronze pyramid, many young powerhouses now just lifeless bodies, frigidly descending onto the pyramid, not moving at all.

Their bodies were placed in smaller blood pools atop the pyramid, their blood completely drained. With the naked eye, one could see streaks of blood flowing from the pools, astonishingly flowing upward toward the top, toward the ancient bronze coffin, making everything eerily unnatural.

Simultaneously, orbs wrapped around heavenly materials and earthly treasures, divine materials, daoist soldiers, and other treasures erupted continuously, rushing toward the top of the ancient pyramid, revolving around the ancient coffin.

Among them, they also saw a brilliant divine light source undulating, emitting a soft, radiant glow. It was a divine spiritual origin, the extreme sublimation of spirit stones, measuring half a zhang large.

One should know that a divine spiritual origin the size of a human head could be worth five hundred thousand catties. Now, at half a zhang large, its value was terrifyingly indescribable.

But all of this was not the main point; within the divine spiritual origin, there shockingly lay a dragon!
