"Yes!"
The blood red gem fell into Mu Chen's hand. It was warm to the touch, as if there was a flame burning within it. Within the gem, a miniature Undying Bird was flying freely. It was a wonderful sight.
Mu Chen looked at the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird in his hand. Even with his composure, he could not help but be overjoyed. Wasn't this Inherited Blood Essence the reason for his arduous journey to the Land of the Divine Beasts?
With this item, he had completed his mission perfectly. As for the bloodline connection between him and Jiu You, the elders of Jiu You's Sparrow Clan would have nothing to say.
"Jiu You, catch."
Mu Chen gently tossed the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird in his hand. He smiled and flicked his finger. The Inherited Blood Essence turned into a streamer and shot directly toward Jiu You.
Nine Nether clenched her jade-like hand and caught the Inheritance Essence Blood. An uncontrollable excitement surfaced on her pretty face. The Inheritance Essence Blood of the Undying Bird was too important to her. As long as she could refine and absorb it, her Undying Bird bloodline would reach a pinnacle. In the future, if she had the opportunity, she would be able to evolve into a true Primordial Undying Bird.
At that point, the entire Great Thousand World would have to pay attention to it.
After all, every Primordial Undying Bird had the terrifying power to contend with a Heavenly Sovereign.
On the altar, when the top powers from the other clans saw that Mu Chen had given the Inherited Blood Essence, which he had worked so hard to obtain, to Jiu You, they were shocked. After a long while, they smacked their lips and looked at Mu Chen in a different light.
To be able to give away such a precious treasure so carelessly, his breadth of mind was really beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Mu Chen did not care about these amazed gazes. The main reason why he had entered the Land of the Divine Beasts was to help Jiu You obtain the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird. Moreover, with Jiu You's help and care in the past, Mu Chen felt that the gift of the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird was far from enough.
After Mu Chen gave the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird to Jiu You, Zong Teng and Lu Hou finally obtained the Inherited Blood Essences of the Myriad Spiritual Bird and the Wild Beast.
In the face of such a precious treasure, Zong Teng and Lu Hou were overjoyed. They happily kept the Inherited Essence Blood into their pouches. It could be said that their trip to the Land of the Divine Beasts this time was already perfect for them to have such a harvest.
However, while they were overjoyed, Mu Chen noticed that the color of the three stone statues seemed to be gradually dimming. Some of the spiritual light that was originally contained in the stone statues also started to dissipate.
Buzz!
As the three stone statues dimmed, the ground suddenly shook slightly. The shaking was not obvious, but Mu Chen was still sensitive enough to sense it.
He immediately frowned and looked around. After a while, his gaze suddenly focused on a certain spot. It was the spot where Bai Ming had been severely injured. The large pool of blood that originally existed there had unknowingly seeped into the ground. As a result, the originally dark ground started to have a tinge of dark red color, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Mu Chen stared at the ground. He did not know why, but the mysterious black hole that he saw at the bottom of the Lake of Treasures flashed in his mind again. Uneasiness surged in his heart. Immediately, his eyes flashed and he made a prompt decision to send a voice transmission to Jiu You and the rest. "Let's go. Let's leave this place!"
However, just as his voice rang out, before he could even move, the ground began to shake violently. With a rumble, even the altar began to shake.
This time, everyone felt it. Immediately, numerous puzzled gazes looked towards the dark land outside the altar. After which, they saw that the land was rippling like the surface of a lake.
An evil aura rose from the ground and caused the heavens and earth to darken.
"Not good. This place is strange. Let's go!"
When they saw the situation, everyone's expression changed drastically. Now, even an idiot knew that the God's Cemetery was not simple.
Swoosh!
There was a team that was at the periphery of the altar. Hence, their reaction was the fastest. They immediately turned into streaks of light and shot out in an attempt to leave this strange area.
Bang!
However, just as they charged out of the range of the altar, ripples appeared on the surface of the dark land and a sinister and strange huge face appeared. It opened its huge mouth and surging black fog swept out like smoke. In an instant, it enveloped the few glowing figures. After which, miserable screams sounded and those figures directly exploded into a bloody mist that filled the sky. Finally, they were completely swallowed by the strange face on the ground.
Hehe!
After the face on the ground swallowed the bloody mist, it seemed to become even stranger. There was an ear-piercing laughter that caused the spiritual energy in everyone's body to vibrate.
A monstrous evil aura spurted out and in an instant, it made the heavens and earth seem like a devil's den.
"Blood, I want blood!"
The wriggling face on the ground looked at the figures on the altar and let out an ear-piercing laughter. The huge mouth spat out billowing black fog and was about to sweep up the people on the altar.
When the people on the altar saw this, their faces turned pale and their eyes were filled with fear. How could they not see that the power of the ghostly face in front of them was not something that they could contend with?
"D * mn it. This must be left behind by the Extraterritorial Race!"
Someone exclaimed in horror. The scene in front of them was clear at a glance. After all, no one other than the mortal enemies of the Great Thousand World, the Extraterritorial Race, possessed such an evil aura.
Moreover, this place was the most intense battlefield when the Extraterritorial Race attacked the Land of the Divine Beasts. Many powerful existences of the Extraterritorial Race were killed and suppressed here. Hence, it was inevitable that there would be some oversights.
Buzz!
The billowing black fog swept over. However, just as the black fog was about to touch the altar, a bright light suddenly bloomed on the altar. The light seemed to form countless mysterious runes. The runes intertwined and shattered the billowing black fog.
On the altar, everyone was overjoyed. They hurriedly looked over and saw that the three stone statues in the three directions of the altar seemed to have come to life. Three rays of light condensed on their bodies and finally turned into three faintly discernible figures.
On the Primordial Undying Bird was a beautiful woman in a palace dress. She had a noble and graceful temperament, a beautiful face, and an exquisite figure. Her whole body was filled with a noble aura.
On the Myriad Spiritual Bird was a man in a colorful robe. The man was handsome and elegant, and he would not be shocked even if the sky collapsed.
On the Primordial Desolate Beast was a shirtless man. His skin was dark as if it was cast from iron, and his strong body was like a mountain. Wherever he stood, everything was calm and steady.
As soon as the three figures appeared, the whole world seemed to be swept up by an ancient hurricane. An indescribable sense of oppression shrouded the area, and it directly caused the demon-like world to see the light of dawn again.
"Those are the three Sovereign Beasts of the Land of the Divine Beasts!"
Jiu You was shocked and lost his voice. Looking at the scene in front of him, even the stupidest person would know that the three figures must be the Spiritual Clones of the three Sovereign Beasts of the Land of the Divine Beasts.
"Tsk tsk." The demon face on the distant dark land seemed to have discovered the three human figures. Immediately, a deafening voice was emitted. It was as though there were countless ghosts screaming within that voice, "You have suppressed us for tens of thousands of years and thought that you would be able to eliminate us. It is unexpected that we are still superior. Tsk tsk!"
On the stone statue of the Undying Bird, the beautiful woman in a palace dress stared at the demonic face on the ground. She could not help but sigh softly and said, "This demonic thing is really not dead yet."
The handsome man in a five-colored robe glanced at the people on the altar and said, "What a pity. I thought that we could hold on for another hundred years. I did not expect the Inherited Essence Blood to be taken away so quickly. In this case, the seal has loosened prematurely."
"Humph. The Demon Land was triggered by the powerful Blood Aura. Who did this?!"
The bare-chested burly man on the Desolate Beast snorted. His snort was like thunder that reverberated in everyone's ears, causing the blood in their bodies to churn.
Many people on the altar looked at each other and immediately looked at Mu Chen and Bai Ming at the same time. Apparently, it was Bai Ming's blood, which contained the powerful vitality of the Phoenix Clan, that had caused such a change in the Demon Land.
Hence, the bare-chested burly man's sharp eyes locked onto Mu Chen and Bai Ming.
Mu Chen felt his scalp go numb. Bai Ming, who had just woken up from his coma, was also trembling in fear. Although the bare-chested burly man was only a Spiritual Shadow left behind by the Desolate Beast, it was still easy for him to kill them.
However, just as they were feeling fearful, the beautiful lady in palace attire shook her head and said, "We can't blame them for this. These demonic beings were already prepared back then. It was only a matter of time. Now that we are alive, we might be able to find a way to get rid of them completely."
"The three of us are only Spiritual Shadows. Maintaining the array is already our limit. I'm afraid we won't be able to get rid of these demonic beings completely."
The bare-chested burly man said in a deep voice. He looked around at the people and snorted, "Moreover, these juniors are so useless. They don't even have a Grade Nine Sovereign. They are simply useless. With such strength, how dare they take away our Inherited Essence Blood?"
His words made everyone blush. However, they did not dare to refute him. In the face of such an existence, they, Grade Seven and Grade Eight Sovereigns, were just like ants.
The beautiful lady in palace attire smiled. She looked at the people and said, "I wonder if there is anyone here who is good at battle arrays? I have a great opportunity for him."
When the people heard her, they looked at each other and shook their heads. Apparently, they were not good at battle arrays.
Mu Chen, who was in the crowd, narrowed his eyes. However, he did not intend to take the initiative to stand out. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that the situation in front of him was not something he could deal with. If he stood out recklessly, he might not even know how he died.
As for the great opportunity, he would rather forget about it.
Therefore, he shook his head at Jiu You. Not only did he not step forward, he even lifted his foot and was about to retreat into the crowd.
However, just as he lifted his foot, his expression suddenly stiffened. This was because he suddenly realized that he had lost control of his body. It was as though he had been frozen.
His eyes shifted slightly and saw the beautiful lady in palace attire, who was transformed from the Undying Bird, looking at him with a smile.
