Chapter 4077: Corrosive Sea
Ling Han gritted his teeth. This couldn’t be another Black Heaven Temple, right?
He had a very deep impression of that hell for Saints, and also very much did not want to remember it.
“Which Great Emperor did this place belong to?” Chi Dao murmured. “Those who can become Emperors have all obtained the approval of the Dao of Heaven and Earth. Though the Imperial Might cannot be violated, I have never heard of an Ancestral King that has a fondness for bloodshed.”
To be able to obtain the Dao of Heaven and Earth, that did not only require a great talent and strategy, but also an open-minded person. He was definitely not the type to seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
Then, what had caused a Great Emperor to go on a killing spree, killing so many people that they had piled up into a mountain?
Was there any such record in history?
Ling Han activated his eye technique, penetrating through the blood mist and seeing even more details.
“These skulls have existed for hundreds of millions of years,” he said.
Several hundred million years!
Chi Menghan shook her head, and said, “There will always be lapses in history from time to time. To say nothing of a few hundred million years, even events tens of millions of years ago might not be known to anyone.”
The three of them circled around the pile of bones a few times, continuously searching for clues, but found nothing.
“Let’s go and take a look elsewhere.”
They roamed around, mainly to find Blood-Patterned Dao Stones, and they did indeed find a few.
This area may be very large, but when they had reached a certain depth, the fog turned into a hard wall, stopping them from continuing forwards.
With their strength, there was no way for them to break through at all. They could only retreat.
Right now, the only area that they could explore was the sea.
The three of them arrived at the edge of the sea. Although Chi Dao was born slowly and unhurriedly, they were now anxious and ready to cross the sea.
“Don’t be rash,” Ling Han stopped him.
He channeled his mystical power, which transformed into a giant hand that grabbed out at the
sea.
A terrifying scene appeared. When this giant hand of mystical power reached into the sea, it was immediately corroded. In fact, it was still rapidly spreading towards Ling Han’s main body.
Ling Han hurriedly severed the mystical power. However, the corrosive power didn’t stop, and it continued to chase after him.
Yi?
Ling Han hurriedly retreated, but the corrosive power was still pursuing him. It was as if an invisible willpower was controlling it.
“Menghan, hurry up and help!” Chi Dao called out. Speaking of which, it was also because of him that Ling Han had moved to test the waters.
Chi Menghan nodded, and was just about to make a move, when Ling Han stopped her.
“Don’t make a move. This corrosive power should be the power of Regulations, and is not something that we can contend against now!” Ling Han said. He was a person who distinguished clearly between goodwill and animosity, so how could he possibly trick those who were friendly to him?
“Then what are you going to do?” Chi Menghan’s slender brows wrinkled into a frown.
“I have a way,” Ling Han said. Then, he broke into a run and fled.
Er, is this your solution?
Chi Menghan and Chi Dao exchanged looks, both feeling slightly speechless.
Ling Han continued to run, and the corrosive power continued to pursue him. It was as if it wouldn’t give up until it killed him.
The blood mist here was too thick, and Ling Han had not run too far, when he had already left Chi Menghan and Chi Dao behind. With a thought, the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower immediately flew out of his mind, greeting the corrosive power.
Ling Han couldn’t withstand this kind of corrosive power. This involved Regulations. However, the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower was forged from Origin Gold, a weapon to be used by a Great Emperor, so what need was there to be afraid of Regulations?
The corrosive power assailed, and the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower vibrated lightly. Lightning filled the air, and the power of Primal Chaos surged.
Origin Gold, a top grade material that would last for eternity.
The corrosive power was instantly blocked. Then, it was slowly destroyed by the power of lightning and Primal Chaos. Finally, it completely disintegrated.
Ling Han breathed a sigh of relief. He had only touched a sliver of it, and the corrosive power was already so terrifying. Then what if he had to cross the sea with his own physical body? He would probably immediately be corroded to the point that not even scraps would be left,
right?
He turned around, only to see Chi Menghan and Chi Dao, who were both still waiting for him at the original location.
“Haha, it’s great that you’re fine.” Chi Dao laughed loudly, and patted Ling Han’s shoulder. Then, he turned to Chi Menghan and said, “This guy not only has freakish abilities, but also great luck. I suggest that you marry him.”
Chi Menghan rolled her eyes at him. This clan brother of hers was really too unreliable. “This is just touching a little bit of seawater, and the corrosive power is already so terrifying. Then, if we enter into the sea, what kind of damage would we suffer?” Chi Dao coughed, and forcefully changed the topic.
“I tried it just now. I threw a rock out, but it was directly corroded fully before it even touched the sea,” he added.
In other words, even if he didn’t go into the sea, crossing the sea directly was an extravagant
hope.
“Looks like we can only wait for those higher ups to come out of the Blood Palace.”
In less than two days, the people that had previously dispersed gradually returned, and the other youngsters that had fainted in the Blood Palace also woke up one after another, joining
their ranks.
However, it was a shame that there weren’t any Blood-Patterned Dao Stones now.
“Peasant, do you dare spar with me?” Liu Yiming naturally returned as well. He provoked
Ling Han again.
Ling Han smiled and said, “Sure. However, you’ll have to fulfill the bet that you owe me
first.”
These words caused Liu Yiming’s face to flush red, and he was rendered speechless.
“Hehe, a mere lowly commoner dares to be rude to the Imperial Clan. Where did you get such courage from?” Another member of the Liu Clan stepped out. His name was Liu Kaiji. Ling Han raised a brow, and said, “Don’t keep calling me lowly commoner. You people are merely relying on the lingering prestige of your ancestors. You’re not all that noble.” Liu Kaiji humphed, and said balefully, “Just for these words, you deserve to die ten thousand
times over!”
Chi Menghan wanted to mediate again, but the three clansmen of the Ten Thousand Thunder Imperial Clan stopped her simultaneously.
Liu Kaiji glanced over, and revealed a sliver of a cold smile. Then, he waved his palm in a palm strike towards Ling Han.
He was also at the consummate level of the Core Formation Tier, but his raw power was as high as 28 Heavens, not inferior to the Buddha Son, Shi Yongming, at all.
This caused Shi Yongming to frown slightly. That was because Liu Kaiji was not the Imperial
Son of the Ten Thousand Thunder Imperial Clan, but in terms of raw power, he was actually not inferior to him. Then, if the real Imperial Son appeared, would he be a match for him? He had great ambitions, and wanted to break through to the Imperial Path, but if he could not even be invincible among his peers, how could he possibly become a Great Emperor? There had never been such a weak Great Emperor in history.
Since Ling Han wasn’t afraid of Shi Yongming, he naturally wouldn’t be afraid of Liu Kaiji
either. He immediately charged forwards.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
The two of them began a fierce battle. Though Ling Han’s power and battle prowess were much weaker, he still had many trump cards. The murderous aura assault, the Primal Chaos Celestial Core, Starlight Screen, when these techniques were used, though Liu Kaiji had the advantage, he was completely unable to turn it into a victory.
In fact, with Ling Han’s endless mystical power as support, as long as the battle lasted long
enough, he could even turn the situation around and obtain victory.
Thus, Liu Kaiji had no choice but to stop and retreat after battling for half a day.
If they continued fighting, it would be his turn to be on the back foot.
Liu Kaiji’s expression was very ugly. An Imperial Clan prodigy was actually still unable to win
when his cultivation level was superior?
How humiliating!
