The statue in the center of the palace was at least three meters tall.
From the statue's expression, one could see that the Heavenly Void King's face was also filled with shock.
To be able to shock the Heavenly Void King back then, it was enough to show that his enemy was extraordinary.
"Could it be that the owner of the war blade is a quasi-King-level expert like the Heavenly Void King?" Fang Chen's eyes widened as he looked at the war blade in the statue's hand and cried out.
Star and Moon nodded. From the statue, the Heavenly Void King's enemy must have been a quasi-King-level expert or a Mystic King expert.
However, if it was a Mystic King expert, killing the Heavenly Void King would be easy.
Therefore, from this point, it could be inferred that the Heavenly Void King's enemy was a quasi-King-level expert.
"That should be the case," Star and Moon said.
Hearing this, Fang Chen suddenly recalled what Shakyamuni's remnant consciousness had said to him before it completely dissipated.
Within the Heavenly Void Secret Realm, the true danger was not Adept Calamity, but something else. He had told Fang Chen to be careful.
At this moment, Fang Chen's pitch-black eyes were focused on the war blade in the statue's hand. His expression changed greatly and his heart trembled.
"Could the danger that Shakyamuni mentioned be the Heavenly Void King's enemy back then?" Fang Chen thought to himself.
The more he thought about it, the more Fang Chen felt that it was inconceivable.
He gently held Star and Moon's small white hand and said, "Yue 'er, be careful."
"Brother Chen, did you discover something?" Star and Moon asked curiously.
Star and Moon told Star and Moon everything that Shakyamuni had told them.
After hearing this, Star and Moon were also shocked.
"If what you guessed is true, then the owner of the war blade is still alive," Star and Moon said in a low voice.
Just as Fang Chen was talking to Star and Moon, a stone door suddenly appeared on the wall behind the statue. Fang Chen and Star and Moon watched as the stone door was pushed open and two figures fled in panic.
"En, Lin Lu and Hei Tai."
After seeing who it was, Fang Chen was a little surprised.
"It's you."
Hei Tai and Lin Lu's faces were filled with fear as they quickly fled. When they came out of the stone door and saw Fang Chen and Star and Moon, they hurriedly ran to their sides.
When he saw Fang Chen and Star and Moon's aura surging, he hurriedly stopped them.
"Stop!" Hei Tai shouted.
"Humph! You two betrayed me. Today is the day you die," Fang Chen said coldly.
If it weren't for Star and Moon's strength, he would've died at their hands long ago.
Hearing this, Hei Tai hurriedly stopped him, "Fang Chen, we need to unite now."
"That's right. We just entered a palace and met a terrifying expert. He was very strong. Even if the two of us joined forces, we were still no match for him," Lin Lu said.
"Why should we help you?" Star and Moon said coldly.
"He is the enemy of all humans," Hei Tai said solemnly.
Hearing this, Fang Chen's eyes flickered and he was about to speak.
Suddenly, the stone door opened and a terrifying aura came out. Then, a black shadow broke through the door and entered.
When he saw the black shadow, Fang Chen's eyes became serious.
It seemed that Hei Tai was right. It really wasn't a good time for internal strife.
Because the person in front of him was a remnant of the Yellow Spring Sect.
Moreover, what shocked Fang Chen the most was that this remnant of the Yellow Spring Sect had clearly been sucked into the three-legged, two-eared cauldron in his dantian. Why was he here now?
"It's you!" Fang Chen cried out when he saw the Adept of Calamity.
"Brother Chen, you know this person?" Star and Moon also sensed the powerful aura coming from this person and asked solemnly.
"He is the Adept of Calamity of the Yellow Spring Sect," Fang Chen said.
Hearing this, Hei Tai and Lin Lu smiled helplessly.
The Yellow Spring Sect had flourished for a period of time, and its influence was enormous in the entire Ancient Sword Continent.
Within the Yellow Spring Sect, the sect master's name had shaken the entire Ancient Sword Continent.
The external affairs of the Yellow Spring Sect were generally handled by the three Sovereigns.
Although the Yellow Spring Sect had been destroyed a long time ago, Hei Tai and the others still knew about the Yellow Spring Sect.
"One of the three Sovereigns, the Adept of Calamity!" Hei Tai called out.
"Keke, three True Martial realm cultivators. They're enough to be my food." The Adept of Calamity laughed sinisterly.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Fang Chen and also sensed the existence of the three-legged, two-eared cauldron in Fang Chen's dantian.
In the next instant, he erupted with battle power, wanting to kill Star and Moon and the other two.
"Attack together!"
Star and Moon shouted. Taking the lead, she activated her Profound Yin Fiendish Body and used her Profound Yin True Intent to attack the Adept of Calamity.
At the same time, Hei Tai and Lin Lu also attacked frantically.
Although they had a grudge with Star and Moon before, their grudges were nothing in the face of the Yellow Spring Sect's Sovereigns.
The Yellow Spring Sect had a terrible reputation on the Ancient Sword Continent back then. Furthermore, they were cruel in their ways. Any human cultivator on the Ancient Sword Continent hated them to the core.
Rumble …
This was the second time the three True Martial realm cultivators had joined forces after surrounding the Demonic Blood Python.
This time, the three of them clearly didn't hold back. When they attacked together, their attack power was comparable to a peak Lv 2 True Martial realm cultivator. It could even be compared to a Lv 3 True Martial realm cultivator.
The wild attacks caused the entire palace to tremble.
The power that escaped caused the palace to shake continuously. Stone fragments fell from the sky.
However, no matter how many stone fragments fell, the statue in the center was completely fine.
Every time a stone fragment approached the statue, it would be blocked by an invisible force.
Seeing the three True Martial realm cultivators join forces to attack the Adept of Calamity, Fang Chen also attacked.
Crash!
Fang Chen set up a supreme-grade Profound Grade Array Formation. Then, he activated his full strength and joined the attack.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Fang Chen's participation turned the situation around.
Caught off guard, the Adept of Calamity was hit by Star and Moon's punch. His body kept retreating.
He looked at Fang Chen. His eyes flickered with a ferocious glint. Then, he clenched his teeth and counterattacked Hei Tai.
However, the Adept of Calamity clearly couldn't hold on for much longer. He kept retreating.
Finally, after three minutes, the Adept of Calamity was once again sent flying by Star and Moon. He quickly stood up with a gloomy expression and said coldly, "How dare you interfere with this Venerable's business. Sooner or later, you will die."
After saying that, the Adept of Calamity's figure flashed and entered the stone door.
"Chase!"
Hei Tai roared without even thinking about it.
If the Adept of Calamity escaped and attacked them one by one, they would all die.
Rather than that, they might as well chase after him.
Hei Tai rushed into the stone door. Lin Lu and Star and Moon followed closely behind.
"He escaped."
Fang Chen's eyes flickered. He felt that something was wrong, but he still chased after them.
The Adept of Calamity's speed was very fast, but Hei Tai's group wasn't slow either. They kept chasing.
Crash!
The surface of the palace was a wasteland. A sinister aura enveloped this place.
After the Adept of Calamity came out of the palace, he quickly arrived at the end of the wasteland and calmly stood there.
Star and Moon's group of four quickly caught up.
"You're not running anymore." Hei Tai sneered.
"Kill him," said Lin Lu icily.
At this moment, the Adept of Calamity turned around. A trace of disdain appeared in his eyes.
"You small fries, do you really think that I, the Adept of Calamity, can't beat you?" sneered the Adept of Calamity.
Hearing this, Fang Chen's expression changed drastically.
"If you could beat us, why would you need to run?" Lin Lu didn't believe him.
Star and Moon didn't say anything. But she turned to look at Fang Chen. The two of them exchanged a glance. They could both see the unease in each other's eyes.
Clap clap clap
At this moment, Lord of Calamity clapped his hands, making a clapping sound.
In the next moment, a boundless voice came from underground.
The entire sky seemed to be locked down. Star and Moon's group of four were completely shocked.
"This is …"
At that moment, Fang Chen felt as though his soul was trembling. The aura that was emanating from the ground was way too strong.
"Could it be that he's the master of that battle saber?" At that moment, Fang Chen suddenly thought of this.
"Hahaha!"
A burst of wild laughter came from the ground.
Fang Chen's group of four were unable to move.
At this moment, Fang Chen was shocked to discover that the three-legged, two-eared cauldron hidden in his dantian had left his body and was floating in the air above the wasteland.
Hiss!
A ray of light shot out of the cauldron and covered the ground.
The cauldron trembled and the lid opened. The head in the cauldron appeared and directly drilled into the ground.
In the next moment, a deafening sound came from underground.
Then, furious roars could be heard.
Fang Chen's group of four looked at this scene in shock.
The trembling continued for about fifteen minutes. The cauldron floating in the air also drilled into the ground.
Dong!
The moment the cauldron drilled into the ground, the entire ground shook.
Wild winds suddenly blew in the Heavenly Void Secret Realm. Dense spiritual energy all rushed here.
"What's going on?"
Fang Chen was very shocked. He also didn't understand why the head in the cauldron would go underground.
Could it be that the terrifying existence underground was also very interested in the head in the cauldron?
An ominous premonition grew in Fang Chen's heart. His expression was very ugly.
After an unknown amount of time, a majestic aura suddenly soared into the sky.
"I, the Heavenly Bone King, have finally regained my freedom." A terrifying voice came from underground.
Then, the ground caved in, and a huge cage broke out from the ground.
Some of the iron rods on the cage were already broken. The three-legged, two-eared cauldron was floating in the cage.
When the cage appeared on the ground, Fang Chen was completely shocked.
In the cage, there was a tiger-type demonic beast. Its body was several feet tall and its body was filled with the aura of a good person.
