Chapter 1066 - Unlucky Chen Fan
“This battlefield was the heart of the war between the Nebulous Divine Palace and the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect three thousand years ago. Countless powerhouses fell here. You only have to look at the remnants to see how brutal it was.”
“That’s right. Corpses of Heavenly Star realm and Manifestation realm experts litter the ground, with even Legendary realm powerhouses among them. It’s hard to imagine how terrifying that battle was.”
“And now the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect has returned, like a centipede that refuses to die.”
“Forget all that. Did you hear that divine weapons and treasures are everywhere on the battlefield? If we’re lucky enough to find even one, we’d strike it rich. Some ancient scriptures here contain powerful martial arts, so even one is enough to start our own sect.”
“And don’t forget the blood essence on the corpses of those experts, or spilled on the battlefield. Now that three thousand years have passed, I wonder what kind of precious herbs we will find. It would truly be a magnificent sight.”
“Exactly my thoughts! But aren’t you worried about the monsters or jiangshi born from the resentment of so many perished experts? For every fortune-seeker, there are just as many deaths. Haaa, probably only Legendary realm experts can move freely here. Too bad we don’t have one to protect us.”
“I don’t think you are right. A while ago, a group of jiangshi ambushed a team led by a high elder of the Myriad Beasts Mountain Manor. The elder and his subordinates were all torn apart on the spot, their flesh and blood devoured, leaving nothing behind.”
“How terrifying... What can we do if we encounter such strong jiangshi?”
As wave after wave of experts poured into the ancient battlefield, their numbers surpassed a million within months. Soon, dozens of cities sprang up side by side, forming what looked like the foundation of a small country.
Martial artists could easily set up a city. If they were willing, an enormous city could be built overnight.
With continued reinforcements, these settlements became as sturdy as any empire’s stronghold, showcasing the sheer power of these experts.
