“Monstrous Flames!”

Flames started burning on Little Fire God’s body, making him seem like a human-shaped torch.

The red tasseled spear in his hand was thrust out, heading for the wave of sword Qi with a wave of his hands.

The majestic flames on his body shot out along with his spear.

The attack fiercely smashed into the profound energy that Yang Yan had sent out.

The scorching hot flames easily penetrated the profound energy.

“I’ve easily dispersed that little bit of profound energy. With this, you still dare to shamelessly boast that you want me to submit? What a joke,” Zhou Xuan laughed.

Pu!

With a muffled sound, Zhou Xuan’s laughter came to an abrupt end.

He lowered his head only to see a clearly visible sword-shaped wound in his chest!

“Didn’t I pierce through and destroy the strand of profound energy?” Zhou Xuan said in disbelief.

Crack!

His body whined.

“With such meager power, he was already able to defeat and kill me. Just how strong is he? It seems that the Fire God clan has been in seclusion for too many years. The times of the outside world have changed…”

With that, his body turned into a pile of white bones in the blink of an eye, leaving only his clothes and red-tasseled spear that slowly fell to the ground.

“What’s going on?” Lin Qi and Zhang Ke who were next to Zhou Xuan turned pale with shock.

They were as puzzled as Zhou Xuan about what was going on.

Hadn’t the sword-shaped profound energy been penetrated by Zhou Xuan’s energy?

Logically speaking, the energy should have dissipated into the air. It should’ve been impossible for the energy to continue to kill.

Their pupils suddenly contracted. It turned out that in the air not far away, a sword-shaped profound energy was suspended.

A fallen leaf drifted and was pierced through.

“Sword Qi afterimage!” The two exclaimed at the same time.

Li Wanhua, Linghu Chongtian, and the others were also shocked.

Sword Qi afterimage was something that could only be performed by someone who had reached the peak of the Without a Sword realm.

“It would be great if I could reach the Without a Sword realm for my sword path!” Linghu Chongtian was extremely envious.

He had yet to reach the Without a Sword realm since he started cultivating.

“Little Fire God is dead. What’s your choice? Oh right, I almost forgot. The two of you are Little Fire God’s friends, so you should have a solid backbone as he does and are very prideful. Since you’re not willing to submit to me, then go down and accompany him.”

Yang Yan’s emotionless voice came from the palanquin. He swallowed Little Fire God’s sword-shaped profound energy, then flew out, heading straight for the other two.

Before Lin Qi and Zhang Ke could even react, sword-shaped profound energies had already penetrated their bodies.

The two of them looked in the direction of the palanquin in a daze.

“I’m different from Little Fire God Zhou Xuan!” Lin Qi opened his mouth but couldn’t say what he wanted to.

“I don’t have such a solid backbone… You didn’t even ask…” Zhang Ke’s body was frozen in the air.

The two fell at almost the same time, leaving only their bones behind.

“All of you have backbones and pride, so I’ll leave your bones behind. That’s pretty good.”

Yang Yan kept the sword-shaped profound energy back into his internal organs, and the profound energy within fell like rain.

His cultivation prowess was rising.

He didn’t think much about the loss of a few Holy Sons as acrobatics.

If they didn’t agree to be his acrobats, he would just continue looking.

After all, there were quite a few Holy Son-level characters on the human rank!

“You guys can split their things,” Yang Yan said.

Split their things? They could do that?

“Thank you, master.”

Li Wanhua and the others were happy that they could get some treasures.

The red tasseled spear that Little Fire God had yielded was a great treasure.

After distributing the items, Li Wanhua came to the gap between the bronze door.

“Master, should we go in?” He asked.

The ruins were right in front of them. There might be danger inside, but there might also be opportunities.

“Master said to go in. All of you, work together to open this bronze door.” Leng Biyue said.

Linghu Chongtian, Zhan Tianyi, Zhan Wuchang, and God clan’s Bone put down the palanquin and went to the bronze door to join forces with Li Wanhua.

They pushed the bronze door open, widening the gap. The light that shot out from inside reflected the scene more completely.

Rumble!

As the crack on the bronze door grew wider, the earth trembled and the entire mountain began to crack.

“Stop. It’s enough as long as the gap can accommodate the size of a palanquin,” Bone said.

He felt that something was wrong and quickly stopped everyone from continuing to push the door open.

“Alright.”

Everyone retracted their power and stopped pushing the bronze door.

When they stopped, Li Wanhua noticed the mark on the bronze door.

“Did you guys notice that the engravings on the bronze door have changed?”

Zhan Wuchang, Zhan Tianyi, and the others looked over.

Indeed, they discovered that there were various changes in the engravings on the bronze door.

Originally, there was only one true dragon carving that looked alive, but now, all the engravings seemed to have come to life and would rush out of the bronze door at any moment.

“It seems that there’s something wrong with this bronze door. Let’s make haste and don’t waste too much time inside,” Bone said.

“Alright.”

With that, they lifted the palanquin and quickly entered the bronze door.

At first, there was a dazzling white light, then whatever was inside presented itself before them.

A wide drill ground appeared. No one was around.

“There’s a palace there! Let’s carry master up.”

They carried the palanquin up the steps and ran towards the palace.

After rushing into the palace, white jade tablets appeared in front of him.

Words were carved on the tablets.

“The Great Qin Celestial Empire, the tomb of War God Bai Qi.”

“The Great Qin Celestial Empire, the tomb of War God Wang Yi.”

“The Great Qin Celestial Empire, the tomb of war general Meng Tian.”

“The Great Qin Celestial Empire…”

Names were carved on the white jade tablets.

At the very top of these white jade tablets was an even larger golden stone tablet.

On that tablet was a stone sculpture of a golden dragon.

“The Great Qin Celestial Empire, the tomb of the first Emperor, Ying Zheng.”

The Great Qin Celestial Empire!

Leng Biyue’s eyes focused.

“I’ve read about this name in the realm books of the Jade Lake Holy Land. There had been an empire of cultivators who wanted to ascend to the immortal world and make their empire a supreme immortal empire. But for some reason, they failed miserably, and the entire celestial empire disappeared without a trace. I didn’t expect them to be here.”

Bone nodded.

“That’s right, there are also records in my clan. It was said that a mortal Emperor named Ying Zheng had obtained the inheritance of a celestial empire’s great emperor who had walked another path. However, the celestial empire’s great emperor didn’t succeed in building the supreme immortal court, and Ying Zheng didn’t succeed either. Before he could complete the final step, the empire disappeared and was obliterated.”

They didn’t know much about the Great Qin Celestial Empire.

They only knew that two million years ago, it was extremely powerful, able to crush all its enemies.

However, in the later stages, the empire only cared about entering various tombs and searching for treasures to break through in preparation for ascending to the immortal world together.

“Master, there are more words under the tombstones,” Li Wanhua said.

His eyes were very sharp.

He went to the tombstone at the top and read the words.

“I will return. Wait for me.”

Return?

“They’ve been gone for two million years. Can they still be revived?” Li Wanhua wondered to himself.

“Master, come here quickly, there’s something here!”

There was a table behind the tombstone.

There were many things on the table, the most eye-catching of which was an exquisite pagoda in the middle of the table.

On top of the pagoda was a green stone pearl.

The true form of Dao appeared around the Pearl, and all kinds of magical changes were happening.

“Master, it’s a Dao comprehension stone!” Li Wanhua shouted.

The Dao comprehension stone was a legendary divine item. One could comprehend the Dao intent one wanted just by holding it.

“Amitabha, everyone. This Dao comprehension stone and the Nine Dragons Imperial Jade Seal are fated to be mine. Can you give me some face and let me have it?” A deep voice came from behind them.
