Chapter 616 Demon Filth
"You... you... who are you exactly? How do you know these things?"
Hearing this, even Ye Yu of the Great Emperor Realm couldn't sit still.
Whether it was Hundred Ghosts Mountain or the collection of various talented bloodlines through the Eight Trigrams Ghost King Formation, these were his secrets.
He hadn't even told his own offspring and closest confidants, yet now a cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm had laid them bare in a single statement.
How could he not be shocked?
It felt as if all his secrets had been completely seen through by the other party.
But after all, he was a Great Emperor-level powerhouse, and he quickly recovered, his face showing a fierce expression, "Although I don't know how you've come to know my secrets, it doesn't matter anymore, since you're shortly going to be a dead man, I'll personally inspect it from within your soul."
Ye Yu stood proudly, having decided to take action and put Qinchuan to death, not even prepared to question him further.
"Heh heh, you are not yet worthy to know this young master's identity.
Many have wanted to kill this young master, including powerhouses from the Divine Realm, but in the end, all of them have fallen. Unless there's an accident, you will be the same," Qinchuan replied with a cold sneer, moving towards the cave as he spoke.
"This young master will allow you to live a few more days, by the time I come out from this place, that will be the moment of your demise," Qinchuan declared with a smirk on his face, his half body already stepping through the light screen.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Ye Yu's mind was sharp, and he barked an angry shout.
With a wave of his large sleeve, a powerful and astonishing Ghost King aura surged from his black robe. Utilizing the pure Ghost Race Divine Skills and ancient Ghost Techniques, he sought to capture Qinchuan.
"Delusions of grandeur," Qinchuan's eyes flashed with disdain, snorting coldly, "Suppress!"
The next moment, the light screen at the entrance of the stone cave suddenly burst with radiance, as streams of golden divine light surged towards him.
These lights, like waves crashing onto the shore, overwhelming and scouring away everything, instantly enveloped Ye Yu.
This aura was incredibly terrifying. Although Ye Yu had reached the Great Emperor Realm, at this moment, he felt as if he was stranded in the vast abyss of the universe, surrounded by terrifying cosmic storms, with no place to stand firm, appearing exceedingly insignificant.
It was only after Qinchuan's figure had completely entered the cave that the surrounding vast waves of golden light began to recede.
"Pfft!"
Ye Yu suddenly spat out a mouthful of dark blood, his heart filled with immense shock and horror; he had actually been injured by the terrible energy coming from the light screen.
"How could the prohibition allow this kid to enter?"
As the son of Ye Xuan, he had been warned since childhood not to trespass into this forbidden area.
In fact, from his childhood until he became an emperor, he had tried various methods to enter this forbidden place but ultimately failed.
He even considered uprooting this whole mountain, but in the end, he was stopped by the strong force of the prohibitions.
After exhausting all means without being able to open the door of the prohibitions, he reluctantly used Hundred Ghosts Mountain to seal off this area.
But now, a mere little cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm had stepped inside right under his watch.
...
As Qinchuan passed through the light screen entrance, after a swirl of mysterious brilliance, he found himself appearing in a magnificent hall.
The entire hall was golden, its walls shimmering with bright gold; the hall was filled with an array of heavenly treasures, an eye-catching spectacle.
On the walls were also inlaid countless Tianxuan Beads flickering with divine light, casting the place into brightness akin to daylight.
Above the hall stood twenty-four Divine Pillars, made from an even more remarkable material, all of solid Supreme Immortal Gold, nearly on par with the Chi Yue fine iron used by Qinchuan to forge the Chi Yue Spear.
This was a full twenty-four Divine Pillars' worth of Supreme Immortal Gold, a testament to the extravagance of this place.
```
If Ji Huo'er, that little money-grubber, were here, she would likely start shouting in excitement again.
But these were not the focal point, the focus lay at the center of the great hall, where a square crystal box was placed.
Through the transparent crystal box, a fist-sized golden heart lay quietly inside.
This was the heart of an ancient Demon Race powerhouse.
In fact, this great hall was the tomb of an ancient member of the Demon Race.
This Demon Race powerhouse had not fallen in the war among the four great races, so his legacy was perfectly preserved.
The legacy sites of the ancient four big races that have survived to modern times are rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
Originally, Qinchuan discovered this Demon Race legacy at the depths of the sea. He used Supreme Divine Abilities to transport this entire mountain to the near Heavenly Mountain Range and ordered Ye Xuan to establish the Spirit Dragon Holy Land here, awaiting his return.
As Qinchuan pondered, there was a disturbance in the space of his Dao Lotus.
At this moment, the ancient corpse unexpectedly appeared.
As soon as that ancient corpse emerged from Qinchuan's Dao Lotus space, it immediately lunged for the crystal box holding the Demon Race heart.
"Hey, I can't give you this heart anymore!"
Qinchuan moved swiftly, snatching away the crystal box containing the heart.
Originally, the heart of the Divine Race from the Bronze Coffin had been devoured and assimilated by the ancient corpse. He hadn't expected this fellow to be insatiable like a snake trying to swallow an elephant, actually setting his sights on his Demon Race heart as well.
"Ao wu wu—"
At this time, the ancient corpse actually emitted a series of human-like sounds.
"Eh, it can actually speak now."
This filled Qinchuan with shock and suspicion.
Qinchuan utilized the Innate Pupils to inspect the ancient corpse.
After assimilating a heart of the Divine Clan, three drops of Divine Clan Essence Blood had recondensed within its body.
And that heart had thoroughly merged with its body, beating continuously.
"It has actually condensed Divine Clan Essence Blood, this is some good stuff!" A sharp glint flashed through Qinchuan's eyes.
The ancient corpse seemed to sense Qinchuan's ill intentions, emitting another series of protesting whines.
"Go back and rest!"
Qinchuan operated the Dao Lotus and forcibly pulled the ancient corpse back in.
After Qinchuan obtained the Demon Race heart, he did not leave immediately, but instead took out the Heaven Devouring Cauldron from the Dao Lotus.
This place was protected by supreme Prohibitions that even Great Emperor powerhouses could not forcefully enter, making it an excellent location for a breakthrough.
Qinchuan first collected the scattered Heavenly Treasures around and arranged them in an Array around the Great Cauldron.
The Array gathered the surrounding Spiritual Energy, the frightening convergence of Spiritual Energy turning from Qi to liquid.
Qinchuan used his methods to obtain Spiritual Liquid, mixing it with the Water of Life obtained from the Dao Palace Secret Realm and countless Heavenly Treasure Materials.
Finally, when the cauldron of Spiritual Liquid was fully formed, the liquid in the Heaven Devouring Cauldron boiled without flame, the golden fluid in the cauldron bubbling up, and at last, he tossed the Demon Race heart into the Spiritual Liquid.
The golden Demon Race heart in the Spiritual Liquid shone brilliantly, spurting out jets of golden mist, covering the entire space within the Heaven Devouring Cauldron.
This was the heart of one of the ancient four great races, indeed a Supreme Treasure.
"The time has come, I can awaken the Innate Viscera now."
Qinchuan's entire body was gleaming, surrounded by Dao Magic, looking incredibly majestic and holy, he silently said in his heart.
He leaped up, soaring into the Heaven Devouring Cauldron, completely submerged by the golden Divine Liquid.
