Within the huge world capital, countless sector lords were busy searching for their own inheritances.
After all, there were countless legends about the Spirit Array in the outside world. Previously, there were people who had walked out of the Spirit Array and soared to the sky.
Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, this was an opportunity that they could not miss.
On a mountain peak, a battle was breaking out.
A group of men in grey robes were besieging a powerful demonic beast.
"Die, you bastard!"
After a while, the battle reached its climax. One of the men in grey robes shouted and stomped his foot. His figure flashed and he appeared above the head of the demonic beast.
At the same time, a black dagger appeared in his hand and he stabbed it into the head of the demonic beast without hesitation.
Roar!
The demonic beast roared angrily.
However, it could not resist the attack of the dagger. After struggling for a while, its huge body fell on the mountain peak.
Phew!
Seeing this scene, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's finally dead."
"That's right. Because of him, several of our junior brothers died."
"Fortunately, senior brother intervened at the critical moment. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Everyone's eyes fell on the man with the dagger.
"Cut the body of the demonic beast." The man nodded gently.
Then, he put away the dagger and stood with his hands behind his back. He turned around and looked into the distance.
However, at this moment, his body suddenly shook and he quickly opened his Sumeru Ring.
"Hmm?"
A few tokens in the Sumeru Ring suddenly shattered without any warning.
This scene caused the man's expression to change.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?"
The other disciples noticed that their senior brother's expression was not right and asked hurriedly.
"Old Seven and the others are dead."
"What?"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and could not believe it.
Old Seven and the others had died not long after they entered the Spirit Array.
"Who killed Old Seven and the others?"
"Damn it, how dare he kill the disciples of our Crying Mountain Sect. He's courting death."
"No matter who it is, I will make him pay with his blood for daring to touch the disciples of Crying Mountain Sect."
Many disciples of Crying Mountain Sect were emotional.
"Don't worry, Old Seven and the others won't die in vain."
The gray-robed Senior Brother said in a deep voice, "I've already sensed their approximate location through the tokens on their bodies. Let's go there now and find the murderer."
"Alright, let's avenge Old Seven and the others."
Many disciples of the Crying Mountain Sect hurriedly left after cutting up the bodies of the demonic beasts.
…
During this time, Fang Chen had been walking on the vast wasteland.
He could sense the aura of confusion in the air at all times.
"How big is the barrier?"
Fang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Looking ahead, a mass grave appeared in the wasteland.
In the open space ahead, there were countless skeletons that had undergone the baptism of time. These skeletons contained extremely powerful energy.
The surrounding walls were in ruins, as if an earth-shattering battle had once taken place here.
"Hmm?"
As Fang Chen stared at the many skeletons, his mind went into a trance.
Then, he saw an unbelievable scene.
An image appeared in the sky above the skeletons.
In the image, the sky was pitch-black, and an intense battle was breaking out.
"They're too strong."
Fang Chen exclaimed. Almost all of the experts in the image had earth-shattering means.
They could destroy the heavens and the earth with a raise of their hands.
However, halfway through the image, it suddenly disappeared.
Then, Fang Chen couldn't see anything.
"What was that just now?
Was it an illusion? "
Fang Chen's expression changed, and his heart was shaken.
Or rather, it wasn't an illusion at all, but something that had really happened here?
In short, after experiencing the scene just now, Fang Chen's heart fluctuated greatly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
At this moment, a vast aura suddenly swept over from the distant horizon.
When Fang Chen turned his head to look, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared.
It was Ouyang Luoxue of the Ouyang family.
After seeing her, Fang Chen was also a little stunned.
He actually met Ouyang Luoxue here.
Her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she emitted a cold aura. She looked very cold on the outside.
She only glanced at Fang Chen, not taking him seriously at all.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Ouyang Luoxue's delicate figure arrived in front of the mass grave in the blink of an eye.
"The skeletons here contain an extremely strong corrosive power. Even a Transcendent World Lord wouldn't dare to face it directly."
She seemed to be talking to herself, but also seemed to be talking to Fang Chen.
In short, after saying this, Ouyang Luoxue didn't say anything else.
She waved her sleeves, and her white palm quickly opened up. A terrifying suction force enveloped the skeletons.
Fang Chen could feel a terrifying aura erupting from the skeletons.
However, Ouyang Luoxue could perfectly control these skeletons.
"This is?"
Fang Chen opened his eyes wide and stared at Ouyang Luoxue's palm.
This was because he saw a layer of golden light on her palm.
This layer of golden light could actually suppress the majestic power within the skeletons.
In an instant, Fang Chen thought of a legend.
If he guessed correctly, Ouyang Luoxue should be using the legendary Ouyang Family's innate ability.
Seal!
The Ouyang Family's innate ability was the Golden Dragon Seal.
Anything in the world could be sealed.
"It's said that the Ouyang Family's innate ability is extremely powerful. Seeing it today, it really lives up to its reputation."
Fang Chen understood the Dao of Seals very well, so he could see how extraordinary the Golden Dragon Seal was with a single glance.
"It's extremely mysterious."
Even though he had the Heaven-Sealing Tablet and was extremely skilled in the Dao of Seals, he still couldn't see through the Golden Dragon Seal.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Just as he was in a daze, Ouyang Luoxue's white palm suddenly clenched, and all the skeletons in the mass grave were sucked into her bag.
The heavens and the earth regained its calm, and Ouyang Luoxue glanced at Fang Chen before silently leaving.
"Everyone thought that the Devil Hand Sect's Tu Wan Mo had boundless potential amongst the younger generation of World Lords, and was the most promising amongst the World Lords participating in the World Lord Meeting. He was also the first genius to step into the Transcendental Realm. However, today I saw that Ouyang Luoxue's methods weren't any weaker than Tu Wan Mo's."
Fang Chen sighed.
As expected of the jewel of the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan. With such an innate ability, even if it was him, he would have to activate the Heaven Sealing Monument in order to escape.
"Interesting."
The corners of Fang Chen's mouth curled up, and he revealed a faint smile.
This kind of World Lord Meeting was even more interesting.
Only by competing with experts and interacting with geniuses would one be able to improve quickly.
At the same time, Fang Chen couldn't help but sigh. The stronger one was, the more opportunities one would have to obtain.
For example, the majestic power within the skeletons was too strong. If he were to act, he would definitely have to go through a lot of trouble.
Although he could eventually suppress the skeletons and subdue them, in terms of efficiency, he would definitely not be as effective as Ouyang Luoxue.
"I'm still too weak."
Fang Chen also knew that his disadvantage was his realm.
Currently, his realm was still at the Three Disasters Minor Tribulation Supremacy level.
In fact, it was very easy to become a Grand Tribulation Supremacy.
However, Fang Chen was very ambitious. He wanted to accumulate enough strength and overcome nine difficulties at the same time like the three disasters.
Only then would he have the chance to become a Transcendent.
After seeing Ouyang Luoxue's methods, Fang Chen was even more determined to become a Transcendent in one step.
…
In the following time, Fang Chen continued forward.
During this period, he didn't encounter any danger. He walked like this for about three days.
Finally, Fang Chen met someone.
Strictly speaking, it should be an old man with disheveled hair.
"Hmm?"
After seeing the old man, Fang Chen instantly became vigilant.
Although the old man looked ordinary, he gave him a strong sense of oppression.
Cough cough!
The old man leisurely turned around, holding a pipe in his hand. He took a deep breath and slowly asked, "Where are you from?"
Fang Chen was stunned. "I'm from the primordial chaos."
"You're lying."
The old man put down the pipe in his hand and looked straight at Fang Chen as he said calmly.
"I sense the aura of the Ancient Saint chaos on you," the old man continued.
Fang Chen's heart trembled, and he turned pale with fright.
The old man can actually tell that I'm from the Ancient Saint chaos?
What's going on?
"Senior, may I ask who you are?"
Fang Chen cupped his fists at the old man and asked respectfully.
"Who am I …"
The old man looked up at the sky.
"It's been too long. I've waited for too long. I've already forgotten who I am."
He seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be responding to Fang Chen.
After a while, the old man calmed down and continued to ask, "How is the Ancient Saint chaos now?"
"The chaos of the Ancient Saint chaos has been quelled, and now it has entered a peaceful era. Moreover, powerhouses are emerging in large numbers, and geniuses are rising like a geyser." Fang Chen told him truthfully.
"Good, very good.
I didn't expect to hear such wonderful news after so many years. "
Fang Chen noticed the word 'after' in the old man's words.
His eyes widened, and his heart became even more complicated.
The old man just said that he had been dead for countless years.
But why did Fang Chen feel that the old man in front of him was real?
"Senior …"
Fang Chen's Divine Sense spread out and enveloped the old man, but he didn't find anything strange.
"Hehe …"
The old man grinned, "There's no need to check. With your Soul Dao cultivation, it's impossible to find anything.
Yes, I'm indeed dead. What you see now, strictly speaking, is not the real me at all. "
"Then why?"
Fang Chen was even more puzzled.
If the old man died, he would definitely be able to sense it.
But now, he couldn't sense it?
"I came from the past and don't belong to the same time and space as you. How can you sense it?"
The old man laughed.
Fang Chen's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He came from the past and didn't belong to the same time and space!
"This …"
Fang Chen's heart was in turmoil. Since he started cultivating, this was the most magical thing he had encountered.
