Chapter 639: Ancient Battlefield, Can’t Erase The Fighting Spirit
In the Chaos.
Guzhan looked at a star in front of him, and in his eyes was an odd glint of light.
Lately, he had been patrolling the Chaos near the area in order to find the ancient battlefield. After ten days continuously searching around, he finally locked onto this place.
He had participated in the great catastrophe back then, so he wasa following its aura in search of the battlefield.
After falling silent for a moment, he slowly raised his hand, and he sent his fist right at that star!
With that punch, a terrifying explosion of power came forth, heading straight for that star. With the sound of an explosion, that star was destroyed, turning into mere shards, flying into the endless Chaos.
In the middle of that star was a layer of light. Looking at it closely, the light actually came from a crack within Chaos itself, and strange fluctuations could be felt within.
“So it’s here.”
Guzhan smiled as he looked at that crack. “Powerful energy has absorbed all the surrounding meteorites, and after an eternity, it’s turned into a massive star. No wonder it took me so long to find it.”
His body started to glow, and a powerful force surrounded his body as he headed right into the crack!
It was an incredibly dark world filled with the energy of death. Even after countless years, the air still seemed to ring with the sounds of battle. Waves of energy fluctuated in the void, turning into strange vortexes that were constantly destroyed and reborn.
It was the battlefield of the great catastrophe. It was a site of intense battle. Every being from the Chaos, no matter if they were regular immortals or Wisdom Elites, had all gathered there to fight for their lives, and fought side by side!
It was a burial site, everywhere was littered with broken equipment and mutilated corpses. Even more of them, with the sand and the winds, have all been buried underground.
Of course, there were also many Eldritch corpses!
Guzhen stood above the ground, ignoring the horrifying sight as he emotionlessly walked forward.
As he moved, he slowly raised his hand, and an immense suction power came from his body as he tried to absorb the power in the air.
After a moment, he frowned.
He said regretfully, “The power is too muddled, and it’s been contaminated by various different emotions. I’ll get indigestion if I absorb it, it’s a pity.”
He started to focus on finding something useful, and at the same time, he looked for the corpses of their Eldritch experts.
As he slowly walked forward, the intense pressure got thicker. The killing intent of the battlefield seemed to seep into his skin. For such an ancient battlefield to still have an effect to this day. Anyone with a weak will would probably end up being controlled by the killing intent present.
“Die!”
With a shout, the image of a person suddenly condensed in the void, and it raised its large battle axe as it slashed at Guzhan!
It was an image condensed by the power and will that remained on the battlefield. Even after death, the battle intent did not diminish, and it stayed on the battlefield.
Guzhan did not make a move, and merely looked over. The image then dispersed, turning into nothingness.
“Oh?”
Guzhan raised his eyebrow as he smiled.
He had absorbed that image’s energy out of habit, but he never expected that the power within the image was more pure than the place he had just come from, and was acceptable to absorb.
Based on that, the energy should get purer and purer the further he got to the center of the battlefield, and it should be much easier to absorb.
Guzhan quickened his pace, and more and more images appeared on the way. He merely dealt with them casually, never stopping for too long.
Those images were far too weak, and not enough to satisfy his appetite, he needed to head to the deepest parts of the battlefield!
“Die, die, die!”
More and more shouts could be heard, and there were more and more images that appeared. The glory of the battle then could be seen.
Guzhan had maintained a calm expression throughout, but when he arrived at the deepest area of the battlefield and saw the sight he was greeted with, he was stunned.
“What is this?”
He widened his eyes, his whole brain was shaken.
In front of him, a large river traversed the sky, passing through the whole battlefield. The source could not be seen, and neither could the end, nor could he ever see the other side!
To those of them who participated in the ancient war, even oceans were mere streams, and even stars could be seen through with just a glance. Not being able to see the other end was something incredibly terrifying.
Not being able to see was like a suppression from Dao. It was a form of restriction, and like a law imposed on him. If the other side did not want you to see it, you would not be able to!
The river constantly flowed, and waves would hit the surface occasionally, but there were no sounds, nor could he feel the water. It was immensely strange.
Guzhan looked at that river with a serious expression, exclaiming, “Where did this river come from?!”
He was very certain that the river definitely did not exist during the ancient war. It had definitely appeared only after the battle!
He wanted to try touching the river, but the moment he had that thought in his head, a form of apprehension formed in his mind, as if the water contained some form of misfortune.
Guzhan’s eyes flashed, and he took up a bone next to him, throwing it into the river.
The bone floated on the river, flowing far away before it finally sank inside, nothing strange seemed to happen.
Guzhan frowned in uncertainty.
“Where is this?”
“Who am I?”
Suddenly, a voice could be heard.
Not far away, a massive skeleton lay on the ground.
It was the corpse of a gigantic dragon, it was hundreds of meters long, and it’s massive head was like a small mountain. It’s golden bones were half exposed on the surface. Even after washing out countless years, it still retained its lustre, proving how extraordinary it was.
After that, a massive image slowly appeared. It was the image of a dragon. Different from the other images, it did not merely have intense killing intent, and instead showed a confused temperament.
Massive amounts of power radiated from the image, and draconic power caused the space to shudder. Even though the battle was ancient, it still managed to produce a terrifying existence.
Being able to maintain this state after an eternity, it was obvious how high the cultivation of that dragon was before its death.
Guzhan’s eyes flashed as a wry smile appeared on his lips.
He slowly walked forward, saying, “I am a human, we’re friends. You died in battle, and I came to see you.”
“Human, friends.”
“Died in battle?”
“I think I remember now.”
The dragon’s image moved a little. It was a body of energy that had been condensed through the power of battle that remained in the ancient battlefield; it could not even be considered a living being.
“That’s right, we’re friends. Give me your power, I’ll get revenge for you!”
Guzhan spoke bewitchingly as he raised his hands. The dragon was suddenly enveloped in the power of absorption, and Guzhang started to absorb its energy.
“What dense power!”
“For its battle spirit to be able to stay alive in the ancient battlefield, and even condensing out a body of energy like that, it really exceeds my expectations. However, this is a real surprise, this place is a treasure trove!”
“I wonder if this situation is related to that river.”
Guzhan’s heart skipped a beat, but it did not seem like a bad thing at that moment.
“This is wrong, you have a hateful aura on your body!”
The dragon’s image suddenly opened its mouth, and it had killing intent in its tone. “You’re not a good person, I want to kill you!”
The moment it said that, it’s power surged as it crashed into Guzhan!
“Hmph!”
Guzhan snorted coldly before raising his fist, sending a punch at the dragon!
A powerful light exploded out, and power scattered everywhere.
However, this had been an ancient battlefield, and it was incredibly extraordinary. Their battle could only be considered a small disturbance, and did not cause any destruction to the environment.
“Roar!”
The dragon image roared, and it swung its tail at Guzhan.
Guzhan pointed at the dragon’s tail. “Disorder!”
A black energy hit the dragon’s tail, sending the dragon flying as its image shook.
“Kill, kill!” It did not stop, and continued to charge at Guzhan.
“Heavenly Destruction!”
Guzhan’s eyes glowed intensely as he shot out another spell.
The Dragon let out a cry of agony as it was shattered by the horrifying power.
However, it quickly condensed itself again, and continued to charge at Guzhan.
Guzhan raised his hand, and shot out another spell. “Annihilate The Universe!”
The dragon’s image was hit by the spell, and it’s body started to dissipate.
It was just a body of energy, and only had power. It only knew the simplest of battle techniques, so it was no match for Guzhan’s power.
Guzhan smiled lightly, and was preparing to continue absorbing the dragon image’s power when many other images started to appear next to him.
Those images were all of different power levels, there were those in the Heavenly Realm, or the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal Realm, and most of them were in the Quasi Saint Realm.
On their bodies were killing intent and the urge for battle.
“What a hateful aura.”
“Eldritch, enemies! Eldritch, enemies!”
“Kill kill kill, fight fight fight!”
Those images shouted as they all charged at Guzhan. Even though they were only bodies of condensed energy, that lack of hesitation was just like what they were before they died. Even the countless years could not erode their beliefs!
Time was unrivalled, because it could kill off anything in the world. Yet, that intent for battle, that belief and that determination would never be diminished!
Even after their death, their wills still circulated around the ancient battlefield. They fought in life, and in death…they fought!
“Moths to a flame.”
Guzhan’s expression was calm as he let out a cold smile. He sent out a spell, and managed to clear out the bodies of energy. “You’re already dead, what kind of results are you dreaming of getting?”
“Kill the Eldritchs, protect the Chaos!”
“Kill the Eldritchs, protect the Chaos!”
…
After being instigated by Guzhan, the wills within the bodies of energy started to awaken even more, and they could already start to shout out slogans, and the killing intent surged.
The dragon joined the battle again, fervently charging at Guzhan.
The Heavenly Realm bodies of energy started to tax Guzhan.
Guzhan’s expression sank, he raised his hand and materialized a statue with a large mouth. It was the Sky Swallowing Idol that the Eldritchs loved to use!
“Suppress them!” He raised the idol and said seriously.
In a flash, a horrifying wave of suppression exploded outward, and all the bodies of energy stopped moving.
After that, strings shot out from the Sky Swallowing Idol’s mouth, piercing through the bodies of energy as it started to absorb their energy.
Guzhan had a happy smile on his face. “You’re all just food, watch as I swallow you all!”
“Roar!”
The dragon image struggled as it roared, but it could not get free, and its eyes let out a sad look.
“Roar…”
Its will seemed to have awakened, and it opened its mouth, letting out a hopeless roar.
“Roar…”
Sound was shapeless, and it turned into sound waves, rippling within the void, even dispersing into the Chaos.
At an unknown place in the Chaos, on a green star.
A few figures suddenly widened their eyes, looking towards a location in the voice.
After that, their bodies changed, turning into dragons as they danced in the sky roaring.
“I hear it, it’s the roar of our ancestors! He’s asking for help!”
“He’s encountering a big disaster, and seems to be summoning us for something extremely important!”
“It’s a huge chance encounter, it’s definitely a chance encounter related to the dragon race!”
“Within the Chaos, only we are the true holders of the dragon bloodline. This chance encounter should be ours!”
“Immediately send someone to take a look!”
At the same time, all of the dragons that had high levels of cultivation felt the summon from their own race.
In the Area of the Gods.
The battle conference had gone on for seven days before it ended. It was so long because each match was a classic, and all of them earnestly showed everything they had.
All the prodigies from each Sect had done all they could to show their skills to Li Nianfan, and it had allowed Li Nianfan to expand his horizons.
At that moment, Cultivator Junjun and the others gathered at Lingxiao palace to discuss what to do with Big Lord Demon.
“Fellow warriors, I’ve told you everything, please let me go.”
Big Lord Demon begged pitifully, “Also, I was telling the truth. The Eldritchs said that the ancient battlefield was in that area. I can bring you there, we can’t delay it for too long!”
“Shut up! Why do you think we’re having so much trouble?”
Cultivator Junjun said in frustration as he frowned.
Jade Emperor nodded and said seriously, “Whether or not to let you lead the way, we have to think it through.”
Big Lord Demon had already told them of all the evils that he had committed, and it really was not too bad, so they did not plan on killing him.
They were stuck in a dilemma because of the ancient battlefield.
Only Big Lord Demon knew where it was, yet…with all the achievements Big Lord Demon said he had, they really did not dare to take the risk of him leading the way.
That guy was an unlucky star!
Everyone he was with died.
Once was a coincidence, twice could also be, but if it was like that every time, then it was something they had to be careful of.
They did not want to let Big Lord Demon lead the way, but the Chaos was large, and there were no directions, nor were there any points of reference. It was very hard to explain the general location, so they really needed someone to lead the way.
At that moment, the Eastern Sea Dragon King suddenly stood up, emotionally saying, “I think I heard an ancient summons!”
