Chapter 705: World’s Beautiful Man is a Cauldron LXXXXIII
In addition, the royal capital was in chaos due to Feng Li, and the prestige of the new king dropped to the lowest point the moment the inner elixir was taken away. If Feng Li hadn’t only had half health, people might have supported him as the new king. Even so, he also turned the royal capital into a mess, and all the vengeance of the past was avenged.
This time, there are more than just sect-trained disciples on the frontline battlefield. Most of them stay in the rear during the foundation-building period. Jiedan cultivators can be seen everywhere in the front, Nascent Souls were also not uncommon. Both sects and individuals want to profit from this war, and take a share of the pie.
Just when the army was pressing down on the mirror, the place where the demon beasts worshiped was suddenly opened.
The person who opened it was naturally not a monster, but a human cultivator. How could a human cultivator let such a place go? On this land stands a stone statue of the Demon King who has ascended to godhood. At that time, the war between humans and demons caused thousands of creatures in the Taiqing Continent to be tortured by the war. The Demon King lowered the soul stone in order to suppress the irrational human cultivators and demon beasts. It also serves as a refuge for monsters. However, hundreds of millions of years have passed, and the power of the soul stone has gradually dissipated under the erosion of the sun and the moon. It has only become an object of faith for the monster clan. It was stored in the place of the statue and was later used. The forelimbs of the majestic stone statue of the Demon King were stepped on.
The guards in the land of the gods are very weak. Firstly, they have to be weakened due to the war; secondly, both the gods and the soul stone have long lost their power, and they are not enough for people to risk their lives to steal, even if they are used for trading, if such an item is put on the market, the entire demon clan will face the fate of being an enemy of the clan, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Therefore, people from the demon clan almost never have evil thoughts. If a human cultivator came here alone, they would also not do such a stupid thing.
But now it is the invasion of all cultivators. According to the demon clan who surrendered and sought survival, there is actually an underground palace under the statue of the god, which contains the treasures that the demon clan has acquired over the years. Naturally, some people are tempted and spend a lot of money. After all the twists and turns, the door was opened.
It’s not like no one has ever thought of taking away the soul stone. Since it is a thing from the upper world, even if it loses its power, it should still have something special. But they found strangely that there were no defensive formations or prohibition mechanisms around the statue. They just couldn’t get close. Whether it was a spell attack or flying directly to grab it, the space would be distorted at that moment. It was obvious that something was close in front of them, but they still couldn’t get close and it was still unavailable.
In desperation, they couldn’t get the idea of soul stone, so they had no choice but to enter the underground palace.
