Pang Jian truthfully told the story of the sturdy ape with black hair that he had found here.
An ape holding a black iron rod, wearing chain mail, is placed in a stone pillar.
After the black iron rod fell into Yu Xin's hand, a ferocious giant ape a thousand feet tall appeared, which killed the Winged Tribe warriors and the alien god puppets believed in by the Winged Tribe.
"A demon race from ancient times?"
Fan Chen was startled. He subconsciously looked at the stone pillars that could be seen everywhere and said, "Are you saying that there might be corpses of demons in these countless stone pillars?"
"Well, the corpse will be corroded and turned into ashes in an instant when it appears. Just like the level 10 frost dragon we saw on the edge of the Demonic Spirit Continent." Pang Jian explained, "But their artifacts will not be affected by time."
After a pause, Pang Jian was a little embarrassed: "In order to respond to us, you also discarded the Sky Eye, and the contribution points inside were not redeemed."
Dong Wenjian shook his head and laughed, saying: "Pang Jian, you underestimate us! Other disciples may care about the contribution points, but why would we take it seriously?"
Lin Manhe pursed her lips, pointed at Dong Wenjian and said, "His ancestor is the true god of the Ancient Law Sect. Pang Jian, you don't think that we would care about that little contribution value, right?"
Liu Youyu said softly: "The current true god of Taiyi Divine Kingdom is named Fan."
What he meant was that Fan Chen’s ancestor was also a true god like Dong Wenjian.
Fan Chen smiled proudly and said, "I don't care about the contribution value, but I am still a little interested in the relics of the ancient demon race."
"Everyone, split up and look for it." Hu Yuanfei shouted.
Next, these young people, who were the most outstanding in the entire Purgatory, moved around in the stone forest outside the forbidden area and began searching in their own way.
Soon, Liu Youyu made the first discovery.
She used a secret method to activate the Xuantian Divine Mirror's ability to detect objects and saw a golden eagle imprisoned in an inconspicuous stone pillar.
A golden eagle with a half-human form, a partial human torso, but a golden eagle's head.
On the chest of the golden eagle, there is a golden feather, which emits dazzling light under the illumination of the Xuantian Divine Mirror.
Liu Youyu informed everyone, and soon everyone gathered here.
"I'll break the stone pillar!"
Hu Yuanfei anxiously took out a new magic sword and chopped the stone pillar in half with one blow.
The golden eagle, as tall as a normal person, emerged from the stone pillar and was instantly contaminated by the passage of time, turning into dust in front of everyone.
However, the golden feather was preserved.
In the Xuantian Divine Mirror, the leaves that were emitting golden light had no luster at all under everyone's eyes.
They used their spirit, soul, blood, and spiritual power to perceive, but they could not sense the magic of this golden feather.
"This thing is extraordinary."
Hu Yuanfei moved closer.
Just as she was about to pick it up and hand it to Liu Youyu, her expression changed slightly and she exclaimed, "It's much heavier than I thought!"
The palm-sized feather should have been light as a feather, but she had to use some of her spiritual power to pry it open.
"This is a golden feather from a level 10 golden eagle!"
Fan Chen, who was well-informed about all the secrets and anecdotes of Purgatory, floated over and took the golden feather from Hu Yuanfei's hand and examined it carefully.
He said with great confidence, "It was this golden feather that had been protecting the golden eagle. Unfortunately, this half-human golden eagle still died and could not escape the catastrophe."
Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Fan Chen thought for a while and gave an explanation that he thought was reasonable.
"It should be the war that broke out between the ancient demon race and the alien race. During the war, a level 10 golden eagle peeled off a piece of its divine feathers in an attempt to save its descendants."
"The golden eagle that turned to dust cannot yet transform into a human form. It should only be level seven or eight."
"If he were to say so, he must be the descendant of a level 10 golden eagle. He wanted to survive by relying on a piece of his ancestor's golden feather. If the ancient demon race had won the war and the level 10 golden eagle had survived, he would have been able to find it through this piece of golden feather and bring the imprisoned little golden eagle out of the stone pillar."
"… "
Fan Chen analyzed it with reason and evidence.
He told everyone that the level 10 golden eagle used this golden feather to cover up all the aura inside the stone pillar.
Because the demon clan was defeated and the level 10 golden eagle did not survive, it naturally could not come to rescue its descendants.
As time went by, the little golden eagle was unable to break the stone pillar with its own strength, and died tragically inside it.
"Liu Youyu, this golden feather is very precious, you should keep it well!"
Fan Chen placed the golden feather on the flying fish boat and started to work excitedly.
The others were also immediately excited.
They saw with their own eyes the feathers left behind by a level ten golden eagle on the stone pillar, and they immediately felt that there must be other treasures waiting to be discovered in the stone forest surrounding the Qi Ling Forbidden Land.
A few days later.
The group searched every pillar, every stone, and every rock under the ground around the forbidden area using their own secret techniques.
Among tens of millions of stone pillars, they also found a blood-red animal eye and a gray-brown wooden staff.
The stone pillar where the blood-red beast pupil was located did not contain any ancient demons, but what was wrapped around the gray-brown wooden staff was an almost extinct rock python.
As soon as the rock python appeared, it turned into dust and ashes and disappeared.
The blood-red beast eyes were found by Dong Tianze, and the gray-brown wooden stick belonged to Hu Yuanfei.
The two thought about it, but still didn't know how to use it.
"Either, take it up there and show it to the people from Tianbao Li family. Or, go to the Holy Spirit Continent and look for high-level spirit beasts." Dong Wenjian suggested.
"A high-level spiritual beast is called a great demon," Zhou Qingchen corrected.
"Yes, now we can call them big monsters." Dong Wenjian smiled.
"Since everyone has sent back all the Sky Eyes and is not planning to accept the orders from above, and the alien races and those fierce beasts are not ready to attack Qiantian and Xuanyou continents for the time being." Pang Jian looked at everyone and made a proposal he had thought of a long time ago: "Do you want to go to the Holy Spirit Continent?"
"Holy Spirit Continent?" Fan Chen was stunned.
"Yes." Pang Jian said seriously, "I am sure that something must have happened in the Holy Spirit Continent. As the last piece of land belonging to the demon race in the Purgatory World, there must be strange manifestations that we don't know about."
"You've wanted to go for a long time?" Hu Yuanfei suddenly realized.
"If it weren't for Zhou Qingchen's incident, I wouldn't have ended up in Xuanyou Continent. I should be in Shengling Continent now." Pang Jian said frankly.
"Since you are the one who convened the meeting, and not guys like Zhou Yi and Hong Qiming, I am willing to go with you!" Dong Wenjian was the first to express his opinion.
After him, Liu Youyu and Fan Chen also nodded.
As for Zhou Qingchen, Dong Tianze, and Hu Yuanfei, they are all in the same boat with Pang Jian, so it doesn't matter whether they express their stance or not.
Soon after, a small sword boat took off from the Xuanyou Continent and headed straight for the Holy Spirit Continent in the second realm.
…
The fourth realm, the far north.
A tall and majestic man from the Celestial Clan, with eight pairs of white wings spread out and a thick black iron rod in his hand, looked solemnly towards the place where the strange fog was spreading.
Behind him, several ships were anchored.
The Celestial Clan, the Demonic Scale Clan, the Ghost Clan, and the Cyclops are all on the list.
"Yu Qing, do you still want to wait?"
A demon scale warrior with a bloodline of level nine frowned and said, "Our young lady has gone deep into the cave and has lost all contact! Recently, hundreds of fierce beasts and spirit beasts have sneaked in. If this continues, the high-level fierce beasts under our command will try to activate the ancient bloodline!"
The alien race that came this time did not summon any ferocious beasts.
They were also afraid that the ferocious beasts that had gained spiritual intelligence would be instigated to rebel by the ancient demon clan because of that news.
"My younger sister and the Dark Anaconda were the first group to enter. But in the second group, there was Miss Xuanying, a strong person with ninth-level bloodline." Yu Qing took a deep breath and said, "I have to be cautious. If we cannot return successfully after entering, then..."
He turned his head and looked behind him, at the warriors of the tribes who were mostly from the fifth continent, and said, "Then it means that in the Beiqi Broken Land shrouded in strange fog, there is a level 10 demon god!"
"Demon God?" The Demon Scale warrior shouted in surprise.
"Well, level 10 spiritual beasts and fierce beasts are all called demon gods. Any demon god is an extremely terrifying existence, and it takes several true gods of the human race to suppress and kill it. As for us, we also need several strong people like Li Bai to have a chance to deal with the demon gods."
Yu Qing of the Celestial Clan first spoke of the horror of the demon god, and then decided to go deeper.
…
The second realm.
Holy Spirit Continent.
A sword boat coming from the Sword Tower passed through the cotton-like clouds and officially entered the edge of the land.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is filled with an ancient and long-lasting atmosphere.
"Fortunately it's a sword boat."
Fan Chen, who was well-versed in history, smiled and said, "Other sects and forces, if they sail their ships near the Holy Spirit Continent, they may be attacked by spirit beasts."
Dong Wenjian smiled awkwardly and said, "This is why I insist on riding the sword boat!"
In that ancient era, because humans broke their promises, the high-level spirit beasts of the Holy Spirit Continent became hostile to all major human sects.
Only Jianlou won the favor of the spirit beasts because the Sword God insisted on allocating the continents to the spirit beasts as promised.
“Wow!”
In the vast ocean, a white python suddenly jumped out of the sea.
She looked at the sword boat flying in from outside with gloomy eyes and said in a cold voice: "Little guy from the Sword Tower, the Holy Spirit Continent is too chaotic recently, you'd better not come in."
As she spoke, she transformed into an old woman in a white robe, stepping on a wave.
“Huh!”
"Taiyi Divine Kingdom, Ancient Law Sect, and Yuanqing Divine Kingdom?"
She carefully distinguished the true origins of Fan Chen, Dong Wenjian, and Liu Youyu from the patterns on their clothes. Her face suddenly turned cold and she said, "If you want to commit suicide, then it's up to you!"
After saying this, she instantly fell into the deep sea.
"Hehe, Pang Jian, do you regret dragging us into this?" Dong Wenjian laughed dryly.
Pang Jian shook his head.
