Chapter 688 Ten Thousand Years Ago

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The Immortal Palace did not have any of the golden splendor that Xu Han had imagined.

The floors he had seen before seemed to be just an illusion created by the formation. After Xu Han stepped into the formation, he discovered that the imposing Immortal Palace outside was filled with broken walls and remnants.

This place was indeed a sacred land. At least after entering it, Xu Han could clearly feel the spiritual energy in the air that was almost condensed into substance. As an immortal, as long as Xu Han was willing, his Qi would become one with the heavens and earth. Without intentionally activating it, he could automatically absorb the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth.

Xu Han naturally wouldn't let go of such an opportunity. After he entered, he began to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. As the spiritual energy surged in, Xu Han felt refreshed, as if he was in the spring breeze of March. He could even clearly feel that his cultivation was rapidly increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His footsteps did not stop, and he continued to shuttle through the Immortal Palace. In the darkness, there seemed to be a voice shouting and pulling him through the broken walls to a certain place.

He followed the voice and slowly walked into the depths of the Immortal Palace.

However, the deeper he went, the more desolate the scene became. Although the outer perimeter of the Immortal Palace was in tatters, it was only considered desolate and nothing else. However, when Xu Han passed through the second palace gate of the Immortal Palace, the scene in front of him shocked Xu Han.

It was still the remnants of those huge buildings and palaces that had collapsed, but besides that, the air emitted a bloody smell, and the broken walls were covered in dried blood. It seemed that a great battle had occurred here a long time ago, and this great battle seemed to be the direct cause of the destruction of the Immortal Palace.

Xu Han frowned as he sized up everything in front of him. He felt that something was wrong.

If this place had truly experienced a great battle, then why was there blood everywhere, but only the corpses of the deceased were nowhere to be seen? Moreover, if this immortal palace was really an immortal as the legends say, who could defeat an immortal to the point that even this grand immortal palace would be abandoned? There was also the fact that the Earthly Immortals lived in the Immortal Palace The Heavenly True Immortal's residence in the Heavenly Palace had also been rumored for a long time, There was no lack of legends about immortals being taken to Kunlun Immortal Palace by True Immortals. However, seeing the snow that covered hundreds of feet, it was impossible to make a decision without ten thousand years. In other words, this Immortal Palace had been abandoned at least ten thousand years ago. Where did those rumors come from, and where did those immortals be taken by True Immortals?

Thinking of this, Xu Han couldn't help but shiver. Could it be that the Kunlun Immortal Palace, which had been rumored to be among cultivators for tens of thousands of years, was just a big lie that deceived the world and stole its reputation?

At this moment, Xu Han suddenly discovered, There seemed to be traces of heavy objects being dragged on the ground between the broken walls, Although it had been a long time, These traces had already become slightly imperceptible, but with Xu Han's Immortal Realm cultivation, he was still keenly aware of such fine traces on the ground. Xu Han intentionally looked through those traces and discovered that the heavy objects that were being dragged were finally heading towards the depths of the Immortal Palace, and that was where the voice that had been calling for Xu Han's arrival came from.

Perhaps all doubts would be resolved there.

Xu Han thought to himself in his heart, and his gaze was also fixed on that place. That was the third and last palace gate of the Immortal Palace.

Xu Han could not see what was happening inside, but there was an inexplicable illusion that the deep palace gate was like a dormant beast, hiding in the shadows and watching him. This feeling had been there ever since he arrived at the summit of the Kunlun Mountain, but at this moment, it was even more intense. However, he did not hesitate to take another step and enter the last palace gate.

...

Even though he was mentally prepared for the scene in the third palace gate, Xu Han couldn't help but be shocked after seeing everything in front of him.

It wasn't because the scene in the palace gate was too tragic or shabby. On the contrary, the third palace gate didn't have the ruined walls that Xu Han had imagined, nor was it filled with blood. There was only the huge palace that stood in front of Xu Han and was as tall as a heavenly pillar.

The jade around the palace was cast with a dazzling brilliance. There were no traces of mottled jade, as if the battle outside had not touched this place.

Xu Han looked at the palace gate, and the golden array on the palace gate that was also thirty meters tall flashed.

Xu Han walked to the palace gate with ease. He cut his finger that had already healed and gently pressed on the formation. A golden light lit up and suddenly dissipated. Then, the huge palace gate slowly opened.

The palace gates were completely dark, but this kind of darkness was different from the darkness outside the palace gates that had been blinded by magic formations and could not be seen. The darkness inside the palace gates was the darkness that truly existed.

Xu Han took a deep breath and stepped into the boundless darkness with anticipation and fear.

Boom!

When he entered the palace gate, the palace gate behind him let out a muffled sound and then slowly closed. At that moment, the last ray of light that shot into the palace from the crack in the door dissipated, and there was no more light in the palace door.

Xu Han frowned. He tried his best to look into the depths of the palace. He could only vaguely see huge figures standing on both sides of the palace. Some bright red objects were flowing down the bodies of those huge figures. Finally, they spread on the ground and rushed into the depths of the palace.

Xu Han didn't have the heart to care about what those things were. Instead, his heart twisted as he watched the gigantic figures standing on both sides of the palace with vigilance. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any living creatures in the Immortal Palace, but Xu Han could actually feel the boundless pressure coming from those figures.

Clang!

But right at Xu Han's horrified stall, A crisp sound came from above Xu Han's head. The vigilant Xu Han subconsciously raised his head to look, only to see that something suddenly lit up on the roof of the palace. It was a circular object, seemingly very similar to the luminous pearls used by large folk families at night. However, this object was clearly more peculiar than those luminous pearls, and the light he emitted was extremely dazzling.

Immediately after, dots of light lit up on the roof. Countless dots of light seemed to be casually embedded above the palace. However, when these dots were gathered together, they seemed to coincide with certain laws, bringing with them a strange sense of beauty. As the dots of light lit up, the dim palace became brighter.

Although it could not be said to be daytime, it was enough to see things.

At this moment, Xu Han regained his senses. He relaxed the panic in his heart caused by this change, and then looked at the situation in the palace again with a calm gaze. With the light from those things, Xu Han finally saw the scene in the hall clearly.

At this moment, the doubts that had just arisen in the second palace gate were finally resolved.

Just where did the blood on the broken wall come from, and what was the heavy object that was dragged along, all of them were easily resolved at this moment.

On both sides of the palace stood dozens of gigantic figures. They were all humanoid creatures more than 50 feet tall. Two horns grew on their heads, and a pair of bone wings were retracted from their backs. Their entire bodies were covered in purple scales. At this moment, they were standing on the spot like sculptures. After Xu Han saw these things clearly, he couldn't help but be shocked. These things were clearly the same as the Saint Son Saint Weapons created by the Dark Asura Palace.

However, the scales around this humanoid creature were tidier and more delicate, and the aura emitted from its entire body was more restrained. It was not as arrogant and unconcealed as the aura around those Saint Son Saint Weapons.

These weren't the keys that shocked Xu Han the most. What truly shocked Xu Han was that the rows of humanoid creatures that emitted a terrifying aura had clearly lost their aura, but Xu Han could truly feel the terrifying pressure coming from their bodies. At this moment, a wound had been cut on the wrists of the gigantic creatures that had died long ago but were still intact. The red things that Xu Han saw flowing down from their bodies in the darkness were the blood in their bodies.

The blood accurately dripped into the grooves that had been prepared beneath their bodies, and then flowed into the depths of the hall along these grooves.

Xu Han had estimated that the Immortal Palace had been buried for at least 10,000 years, which meant that these humanoid creatures had existed here for 10,000 years. They had already died ten thousand years ago. It was already inconceivable that their fleshly bodies would remain immortal for ten thousand years. Then why was fresh blood still flowing out of their bodies?

The doubts in his heart grew even more intense. He watched as he walked forward along the groove beneath his feet and followed the traces of blood into the depths of the hall. At that moment, the blood spilled by the humanoid creatures on both sides of the hall gathered together and poured into the dark hole beneath the high platform of the hall along the groove.

Xu Han saw this scene clearly. The expression on his face became a little strange. He stepped onto the high platform in the depths of the hall, Step by step, Xu Han walked slowly through the hundred stairs at a height of ten zhang. He did not know what was on the empty platform, but he could feel that as he walked towards the platform, the figure that had been calling him became clearer. It was as if something on the platform was calling Xu Han all the time.

Finally, with such doubts, he walked to the top of the platform.

He looked at it with a heavy brow. There was nothing on the platform, There was only a huge circular hole several zhang in the middle, Scarlet light spilled out from the cave entrance, carrying a strange and dull smell. At the same time, the Spiritual Energy fluctuations he had felt before had also become denser and denser. It seemed that he had reached the peak. This was the place where Spiritual Energy was spilling out of the Immortal Palace.

Xu Han slowly walked to the edge of the huge cave entrance, took a deep breath, and then lowered his head to look at the red-lit cave entrance.

Then his pupils reflected the scene beneath the giant cave. Beneath the giant cave were rays of constantly rolling red liquid. As the thing rolled, a rich smell of blood and boundless Spiritual Qi surged out from the entrance of the cave.

Xu Han's heart shook. In just an instant, she reacted. The boundless Spiritual Qi in the Immortal Palace seemed to have leaked out from the entrance of the cave. Afterwards, the Spiritual Qi was imprisoned in the array of the Immortal Palace and gathered more and more in ten thousand years. The red liquid surging in the cave was the blood of the enormous humanoid creatures on both sides of the hall!

Unlike the monsters created by the Dark Asura Palace, these were the real Demigod Gods. They were the masters who had ruled this world before.

This conjecture inevitably appeared in Xu Han's mind. He was about to withdraw his gaze and look at the divine seeds again, but at that moment, the blood in the cave suddenly started to violently surge. Under that surge, strands of strange aura gushed out from the cave entrance and wrapped around Xu Han.

At that moment, Xu Han's head rumbled. His gaze stopped in the surging blood at the entrance of the cave. He seemed to have fallen into a devil's stunned state, and his expression gradually became dull. The rolling blood kept changing. Xu Han's eyes reflected the blood red. Everything in front of him changed at that moment.

He saw an unknown time ago, a humanoid creature fifty feet tall was sitting on the throne. Countless creatures knelt at his feet. They were singing hymns to him. They were shouting to the creature on the throne with incomparable devotion, "Mora! Mora!"

Then, the scene changed. The enormous humanoid creature suddenly arrived at a certain place in this world. He stood high up in the sky and stretched out a hand. Then, the fate of the world was sucked into his hand. The land in that world immediately dried up at a visible rate. The vegetation died, and life was charred.

Then, in the immortal palace of Kunlun, The humanoid creatures, who were fifty feet tall, began to fight with each other. It was difficult for Xu Han to know the reason for this battle to break out. However, what he saw in that scene was that the battles between the divine species seemed to have no purpose at all. It was more like they were fighting for the sake of killing. They stood together and used killing moves against everyone beside them. Other than death, no one could stop them.

This battle continued for a long time. All of the gods had died. Only one of them was wounded, but he barely managed to breathe a sigh of relief. He dragged the corpses of the dead god seeds into the huge palace and placed them one by one like what Xu Han had seen.

After doing all of this, the last survivor cut open the wrists of his former companions, allowing fresh blood to continuously flow through their arms and into the cave entrance in front of Xu Han. At that moment, the last survivor's face revealed a fanatical expression. Then, with that fanatical expression, he jumped into the hole filled with the blood of his companion, as if welcoming a grand ceremony.

The fanaticism on his face became joyful at that time, but soon this joy turned into fear. His body gradually melted in the blood. With a miserable cry, his body completely merged with the blood, and the door of the dilapidated Immortal Palace was also heavily closed by an invisible force.

At that time, Xu Han was also pulled out of the illusion. He gasped heavily, and everything he had seen just now echoed in his mind, making it difficult for Xu Han to calm down for a long time.

"How is it? Is there anything you want to know?" A voice suddenly sounded from Xu Hanxin's turbulent heart.

Xu Han suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

When he saw the owner of the voice clearly, Xu Han's expression instantly became extremely ugly.

His pupils suddenly dilated, and he said incredulously, "It's you..."
