The Ancient Demon Realm was not within the Desolate Imperial Palace, but rather outside. It was rather far away, almost at the border of the Imperial Palace.
Fortunately, there was a special Qian Kun transportation matrix.
This place could be said to be the most northwestern place in the Three Regions and Nine Realms.
In front of them was a deathly silent desert. The sky was shrouded in a deathly gray fog, and there was only fine gray sand in the desert. There was no wind, and it was very quiet.
A few days later, Long Chen, Lingxi, Moon Devouring Monarch, and Kunpeng Monarch arrived.
The four of them walked towards the entrance of the Ancient Demon Realm.
After a while, Long Chen suddenly asked, "Senior Moon Devouring, how is your relationship with Xiao Lang?"
Moon Devouring Monarch was shocked.
He had hated Long Chen before, but Long Chen's concern for Mo Xiaolang made him realize Long Chen's true character. He was not so arrogant and domineering.
Hence, his attitude softened a lot.
He said, "The Imperial Prince is a member of the Wolf Clan, and we are naturally the best."
Long Chen said, "You probably know that Soyeon told me about Xiao Lang, but I don't want to see this little girl being bullied when I come out."
Moon Devouring Monarch understood what he meant. He was afraid that the Desolate Imperial Palace would punish Soyeon for revenge. He said, "Absolutely not. We are all Monarch Monarchs. Why would we bother with a little girl? Moreover, her relationship with Xiao Lang is not ordinary.
We will not touch her either. Don't worry about that. "
Only then did Long Chen feel a little more at ease.
He had forgotten about this matter because of the difficulty of making a decision.
Hence, he reminded him. With Moon Devouring Monarch's status, he would not make things difficult for Long Chen on this matter.
"At the end of the day, I rather admire you. I'm just very puzzled. If you view the matter of the City Lord of the Wronged as so important, why would you take such a risk for the Imperial Prince?"
To this question, Long Chen could only say, "Because I trust him. Besides, I already owe Xiao Lang too much.
This time, you should not haggle over anything and just agree to his request. "
"Alright, I really don't know how you managed to cultivate such a brotherly relationship. I can sense that in the Emperor's heart, you are even more important than the Emperor. That's why he didn't hesitate to resist the Emperor for you."
They had fought side by side for ten years. How could he understand?
After advancing quickly for more than six hours, they finally arrived at their destination in this vast gray desert. Long Chen raised his head and smelled the aura of corpses in front of him.
What came into view was a withered forest in the middle of the desert. It was a huge withered forest. The trees were very tall and blocked one's line of sight. However, there were no leaves. The entire withered forest was shrouded in grey. Vaguely, there were many corpses that were hundreds or even thousands of meters long.
The whole world was filled with the silhouettes of corpses.
"Outside the Ancient Demon Realm is the burial place of the experts of my Demon Race. It is also our race's sacred land. Generally speaking, it is absolutely forbidden for humans to desecrate it. I really don't know what the Emperor was thinking. He actually allowed an outsider like you to come here and even made that bet with you." Kunpeng Demon Sovereign said in a bad mood.
In front of them, the ground was covered with corpses that were placed randomly and not buried under the ground. The corpses that were still close by were glowing with a deathly light, giving off a creepy feeling. Lingxi's face was a little pale, and she hurriedly held onto Long Chen's arm.
"How many years has it been since the last human came here?" Long Chen asked.
Devouring Moon Demon Sovereign casually replied, "At least tens of thousands of years.
In any case, humans are basically forbidden to come here. "
In that case, the Desolation Emperor really seemed a little strange.
"He wants to imprison me for five hundred years?" Long Chen thought carefully. What was his purpose?
At this time, Kunpeng Demon Sovereign took out the 'Emperor's Token'.
He said, "Don't go more than ten meters away from me. Otherwise, your intrusion will cause the corpses of the guards to awaken, and the ancestors of the entire Forest of Corpses will riot and annihilate you.
This is also the reason why others dare not come here. Without the Emperor's Token, anyone who comes here will be torn to pieces by our ancestors. This is the power of the primordial spirit that they left behind. "
No wonder he wanted the Emperor's Token. So that's why.
It was no wonder that so many corpses were not buried in the ground, because these corpses still had the power of the Demon Clan. Before they died, they must have used some secret technique to come here, and become the loyal guardians of this Forest of Corpses and Bones, so that a small part of their power could be preserved.
Moreover, the countless corpses were too huge and endless. Who knew how many demon race people had died since ancient times.
Following Kunpeng Demon Sovereign, the four began to walk into the Forest of Corpses.
Around them, the gray aura condensed into a long snake that slithered over and pounced towards them. But at this time, the Emperor's Token formed a light circle with a radius of ten meters around them, which prevented the gray aura from approaching.
The Forest of Corpses that was about to boil quietened down.
In this sea of dead wood and corpses, the four of them walked quickly and rarely spoke. Long Chen raised his head and looked at the corpses that were about a hundred to a thousand meters wide. They were of all shapes and sizes. There were beasts such as tigers and wolves, birds such as sparrows, water dragons, sharks, man-eating fish, insects, and a small portion of the Tree Race. The large number of corpses condensed into this sea of corpses.
The deeper they went, the more shocked Long Chen was, because there were too many corpses.
After walking for about an hour, basically everyone could only fly over the corpses. The deeper they went, the greater the power hidden in the corpses. It was estimated that not many people could break into the Ancient Demon Domain.
After walking to the place where the gray was the densest, there was suddenly an open space in front of them. In the open space, there was a long snake corpse that was ten thousand meters long, forming a circle. This long snake was not a dragon, but it was extremely terrifying, especially the thick head, comparable to a real divine dragon, probably similar to the body of Long Chen when he transformed into the Ancestral Dragon.
The long snake corpse was divided into a total of nine parts, and there were still remnants of color in the sea of consciousness.
"This is the corpse of one of the Desolation Emperors. His true form was the Primordial Nine-Colored Snake." Devouring Moon Demon Sovereign introduced.
Long Chen suddenly thought of something and asked, "So, what is the true form of this Desolation Emperor?"
He asked in a casual tone.
"I don't know."
Devouring Moon Demon Sovereign avoided the question and said, "The entrance is in the encirclement of the Primordial Nine-Colored Snake. Inside is a sea of bone dust. If you fall into this sea of bone dust, you will be able to reach the Ancient Demon Domain. Whether you can come out or not depends on your luck, I can't guarantee it."
Since he had already come here, it was impossible to retreat.
Long Chen let Lingxi enter the Holy Kingdom. Without saying a word, he rushed into the sky, passed the corpse of the Primordial Nine-Colored Snake, and found that its corpse surrounded a small lake. This lake was pure white, and there was no liquid in it. Instead, there was a kind of skeleton that had been ground into powder. At this moment, it was trembling slightly, quite a frightening feeling, and people did not dare to approach.
There was a feeling that if he went in, he would be turned into bone dust.
This was just an illusion. Long Chen realized that this might lead to a Small Qian Kun World.
Taking a deep breath, Long Chen rushed inside.
After he went in, the two demon sovereigns left.
"Do you know why the Emperor tricked him into going in?" Kunpeng Demon Sovereign suddenly asked.
Devouring Moon Demon Sovereign shook his head.
"If he went in, Zhenwu Great Emperor will definitely be anxious. Moreover, the Three Regions and Nine Realms calamity is approaching, and the Emperor can't just focus on himself. But he did this to trick this kid. What was the Emperor thinking?"
"How would I know? But, Zhenwu Great Emperor is here, and there are Emperors to deal with him. We can't think too much about it.
Let's see how it goes. "
Kunpeng Demon Sovereign turned back and said, "Do you think this guy who has created so many miracles can come out from inside?"
"Nonsense, if the Emperor tricked him into going in, how can he come out?"
… … …
In front of him, it was also a gray world.
But this gray world was even quieter, without a trace of sound.
Long Chen stood in a gray cloud, and the surroundings were shrouded in fog, so he could not see clearly what was in other places.
This was an environment so quiet that it was suffocating.
Lingxi was no longer a weakling, and the two of them could take care of each other. Long Chen let her out, and then looked around.
"There seems to be a faint light in front." Lingxi was nervous, and said softly.
Without saying anything, Long Chen held her little hand and walked forward. They walked above the clouds, and had no idea what was above and below the clouds.
When they reached their destination, a wall of clouds appeared in front of them, and there were many small white doors in the wall. As they walked, they found that there were some words written on these small doors, which should be the names of some Connate Dao Techniques.
"Roughly like this?
If you enter this small door, as long as you pass the test, you can practice this Connate Dao Technique inside, or should I say, practice the Connate Dao Technique while passing the test? "Long Chen asked doubtfully.
"Roughly like this?" Lingxi was also uncertain.
The two of them walked downwards.
"Confinement room, one year, two years …"
The words "confinement room" began to appear on the small white door.
Long Chen sped up, and finally found a room with the words "confinement room, five hundred years" written on it.
The small words below said, "Once you enter the confinement room, you will not be able to come out for five hundred years, and no power in the lower realm can destroy it. Enter with caution."
"Chen, look?" Lingxi's voice came from behind.
Following her gaze, Long Chen saw a small statue at the door of the confinement room for five hundred years. It was a strange little beast, completely gray, and had no limbs, but its mouth was very big, and its small appearance looked very cute.
"This thing looks like the legendary dragon-swallowing beast …" Lingxi said in surprise.
"Dragon-Swallowing beast?" This name made Long Chen very uncomfortable, and he asked, "What the hell is a dragon-swallowing beast?"
… …
