Chapter 59: The Heart of the Demon Emperor

  An extremely grand and majestic scene, with thirty-six divine rainbows in the front and twenty-seven ferocious beasts carrying twenty-seven powerful cultivators in the back. Although there were only a few dozen people, it seemed like thousands of troops and horses charging forward, causing the sky to tremble as if countless heavenly soldiers and generals had arrived.

  The sky was filled with the cries of men and beasts, as clouds and fog churned and surged, killing intent soaring to the heavens like a vast, turbulent sea. Ye Fan's eyes widened in shock - there were so many powerful beings here, more than twice the number in the Lingxu Cave Heaven.

  "Is the Holy Land of Yao Guang, the sacred place where Ling Yu Dong Tian relies on?" Ye Fan muttered to himself. Whether in ancient China or on this side of the starry sky, the two words "Yao Guang" are very particular.

  "What a mighty aura the Sacred Land of Shaking Light has!" Just then, a cold voice came from another direction, and the sky "rumbled" with sound as eighteen ancient war chariots rolled in, their killing intent soaring to the heavens, pressing down on the firmament which rumbled and trembled.

  "The ancient noble family that has been passed down since the ancient times —— the Ji Family!" The people of Yangguang Holy Land's pupils all shrunk when they saw the eighteen ancient war chariots, everyone was on high alert, a stern and murderous aura burst forth, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

  Both sides came to a halt, each occupying a piece of sky, staring at each other from afar.

  "May the strongest win!"

  These were two groups of people with a loud voice, confronting each other for a moment, and not starting a war. Both sides rushed to the magnificent ancient temple above the volcanic mouth at the same time.

  Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat, the legendary sacred place and the ancient aristocratic family arrived one after another. It seems that the birth of this demon emperor's tomb is indeed shocking enough. The two giants received the news and arrived in Yan land at the first time, participating in the proceedings.

  "The Ji family, which has been passed down since ancient times...” Ye Fan showed a thoughtful expression. The surname Ji is one of the oldest in China, with a great origin, leaving endless legends in ancient China. Unexpectedly, it was also so on the other side of the starry sky, an existence that could rival the Holy Land.

  Rumble... rumble... rumble...

  The sky seemed to have a flood of impact, the Holy Land of Light and the Ji family, these two superpowers, rushed past in an instant, and suddenly arrived in front of that magnificent ancient temple.

  The fierce birds and beasts around scattered in a hurry, they couldn't transform into human form yet, but had already opened their spiritual wisdom, sensed the danger, and all retreated decisively.

  On the other hand, the elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven all changed color. Although they were attached to the Yao Guang Sacred Land, this time the tomb of the Demon Emperor suddenly appeared and did not report to the superior. Now that someone has come in person, it naturally makes them a bit uncomfortable. Moreover, the Jia family, the ancient aristocratic family closest to Yan Di, also received the news and rushed here. The two super-giant objects both appeared, making the people of Lingxu Cave Heaven feel a little bitter. They knew that they might not have any gains this time.

  At this time, the magnificent ancient temple was shaking constantly. Several great demons, the master of the Lingxu Cave Heaven and the Taishang Elder were fiercely fighting each other. The dull sound inside was getting stronger and stronger, making people's hearts ache even from a distance.

  The people of Yao Guang Holy Land quickly surrounded the ancient temple, dozens of fierce beasts shook their heads and tails, spewing clouds and mist, constantly trampling the sky, making this place tremble continuously, a loud noise. The Ji family was not weak at all, eighteen ancient war chariots formed a battle array, sealing off the sky, confronting Yao Guang Holy Land, also to prevent the sudden rise of the Demon Emperor's tomb.

  At this moment, eight or nine elderly people walked out of the crowd in the Holy Land of Shaking Light and the Ji family at the same time. They stepped into the void, flashed with light, and disappeared at the entrance of the ancient temple, rushing in.

  Boom

  The Emperor's Mausoleum shook even more violently, the battle inside had reached a white heat, with weapons constantly spewing divine light flashing in the hall.

  The addition of the ancient family and the holy land soon broke the deadlock, seemingly breaking many of the restrictions inside, and in no time, a burst of radiant light shot out.

  The crowd outside all moved, driving the divine rainbow, competing for those rushing out of light, carefully looking at the flowing light weapons, one look and it's clear that they are not ordinary objects.

  "Bang"

  Suddenly, a loud crash, the people surrounding the ancient temple all turned pale and retreated violently. A vast and unpredictable power burst out of the ancient temple, like a tsunami, overturning all eighteen ancient war chariots of the Ji family. The barbaric beasts and monks in the Holy Land of Yao Guang also fell over and quickly retreated.

  A fierce light burst out from the tomb of the Demon Emperor, dazzling people to the point where they couldn't open their eyes. The vast and unpredictable power surged like a tsunami, and a crystal coffin that was only about one foot long shot out, emitting an intense energy and brilliant light.

  "Dong", "dong", "dong"......

  It is lightly trembling, like a heartbeat, rich in rhythm, full of majestic life breath, vast power sweeping the eight directions.

  "Stop it!"

  A urgent shout came from the tomb of the Demon Emperor, and then more than a dozen figures rushed out together. The first person was surprisingly Pang Bo. At this moment, his whole body was surrounded by green gas, and the dragon and phoenix patterns on his face were even denser. Even his arms had gradually climbed up with turtle and unicorn-shaped texts. His eyes shot out long green lights that reached several meters, and at this moment, he could be said to have a demonic aura that surpassed the sky, more than the few big demons behind him. At this moment, in his eyes, there was nothing else, only staring unblinkingly at the meter-long crystal small coffin, pursuing it relentlessly.

  The masters of the Yao Guang Holy Land and the Ji Family rushed out of the Zigu Temple with unsightly expressions, loudly ordering the people around them to intercept the crystal coffin. At this time, the leader of the Ling Xuan Cave Heaven and the Taishang Elder also rushed out with difficult-to-look-at expressions. They did not want to give up, despite so many people having arrived, they still wanted to fight for it, otherwise all their efforts would be in vain.

  As for the few powerful demons, they were the most furious, with their faces filled with resentment and unwillingness. However, facing so many strong human warriors, they had the heart but not the strength to break out of the encirclement and wait for an opportunity to take action.

  The eighteen ancient war chariots of the Ji family formed a battle array, blocking the sky and sealing off this place, intercepting that crystal coffin. The monks from the Holy Land of Yao Guang also took action, some riding fierce beasts, others driving divine rainbows, and charged forward directly.

  The crystal coffin that was less than a foot long was suddenly trapped, and at this time, the strong men who rushed out of the tomb of the Demon Emperor all arrived, almost simultaneously reaching out to grab it.

  Bang

  Dozens of large hands stretched out, grabbing the crystal coffin. Of course, those big hands were condensed from light and were not the real palms of the crowd. They were fighting for the crystal coffin while also fighting each other.

  The eighteen ancient war chariots of the Ji family all surrounded them, while the people from the Holy Land of Yao Guang were galloping horizontally. At this moment, the two surviving Taishang elders of Ling Xuan Cave Heaven looked embarrassed, their absolute strength was very strong, but in front of so many people, they seemed to be outnumbered and outmatched.

  Of course, Pang Bo was still a lone wolf, but he didn't give up. His demonic aura soared to the sky, and the green light shot out of his eyes had already reached over ten meters, stronger than before.

  "Chirping"

  At this moment, the crystal coffin could no longer withstand the impact of so many strong men and slowly cracked before shattering with a loud crash.

  Boom

  At this moment, a torrential demon power burst out in an instant, blasting everyone away, and no one could withstand this violent force.

  The four ancient war chariots of the Ji family that were blocking the front were directly crushed to powder, and the twelve cultivators on top seemed to be made of yellow sand, instantly turning into dust.

  The Holy Land of Yao Guang also suffered heavy losses, with more than a dozen people being strangled to death by this raging demonic power, and along with the barbaric beasts, they were directly turned into bloody mist, dying unjustly.

  The master of Ling Xiu Dong Tian and the two Taishang elders turned pale, flying backward for hundreds of meters before stabilizing their figures. Even someone as powerful as them almost suffered a disaster.

  In the distance, Ye Fan's heart tightened, fearing that Pang Bo would encounter an unexpected situation. Although his body was dominated by an unknown existence, it was still Pang Bo's physical body after all.

  The aura was overwhelming, but Pang Bo was calm and unscathed. He retreated further than anyone else, as if he had anticipated this outcome long ago.

  At this moment, the life breath bursting out of the shattered crystal coffin is simply comparable to the ocean. The combined life force of all the people present does not match its strength.

  In the endless source of demonic energy, there was actually a bright red heart, only the size of a fist, like a ruby crystal, surrounded by a brilliant blood-colored divine aura, and the endless demonic energy and powerful life energy were emitted from it.

  "Dong", "dong", "dong"......

  The sound of heartbeat came out, and it was actually beating with a strong vitality, without losing its vitality, this is a heart with great vitality!

  At this moment, no one can get close, this crystal and bright red heart beats once, making people around feel blood vessels bursting, blood vessels about to burst, everyone's heart is severely painful, many people have blood overflowing from the corners of their mouths, unable to support themselves, quickly flying backwards.

  A terrible heart, just such a normal beat, is unbearable!

  "The Heart of the Great Emperor... is the Sacred Heart of our Demon Clan's Great Emperor!" In the sky, several great demons were shocked beyond measure and couldn't help but let out cries of astonishment.

  The crystal-like heart of the demon emperor was beating powerfully, and then suddenly shot up to the sky, transformed into a blood-colored divine light, rushing towards the distant sky.

  "Stop it, don't let it get away!" An old man from the Holy Land of Shaking Light shouted, his face full of anxiety.

  "Seize it, no matter the cost!" The strong ones of the Ji family also shouted: "That is the heart of the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan, the source of his power. If it falls into the hands of other great demons, there is a high possibility that another Great Emperor of the Demon Clan will be created!"

  When they gave the order, several big demons rushed out, but one shadow was faster than everyone else. It was Pang Bo, who merged with heaven and earth, transformed into a green light, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, almost at the same time as the heart of the Demon Emperor went far away.

  The Ji family dispatched eight ancient war chariots to chase after them, while the Yang Guang Holy Land also split out half of its men and horses, rushing over at top speed. They each left behind half of their manpower, surrounding the tomb of the Demon Emperor.

  "If I had known earlier that it was the tomb of the Demon Emperor, I would have reported it to the higher-ups no matter what. Alas, we came hastily and our manpower is insufficient!" An old man from the Shaking Light Sacred Ground kept sighing.

  "I thought it was just an ordinary cave, but I didn't expect it to be the tomb of the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan. It's really beyond my expectations! This is a major event that can shake the entire Eastern Wilderness!" The strong men of the Ji family also regretted their actions, and they too had not reported it to their superiors before bringing people to rush over.

  In the distance, Ye Fan was extremely shocked. Among these people, at least nearly ten were not weaker than the master of Ling Xuan Cave Heaven, but from their conversation, it was not difficult to hear that they were not the true strongmen of Yang Guang Holy Land and Ji Family. This could not help but make one's heart tremble with fear.

  Several sacred places and those ancient aristocratic families are indeed unimaginable colossal entities!

  "Li Zhangmen, have you obtained the legendary 'Tao Jing'?" An elder from the Shaking Light Holy Land asked the master of the Ling Xu Dongtian. Since he knew that this was the tomb of the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan, he immediately understood what kind of important sacred object was buried here.

  Apart from the heavy treasure of the Demon Clan that the Great Emperor used before his death, there must be three other divine treasures: the "Taoist Scripture", the ultimate treasure of the Eastern Barbarian tribe, and the body of the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan.

  Among them, the source of the Demon Emperor's demon power - the heart, has already broken through the air, and it is difficult to say whether it can be caught. Putting aside the Demon Emperor's heavy treasure, the other two sacred objects of the Donghuang people are must-haves for both Yaoguang Sacred Land and Ji Family.

  The sect master of Ling Xiu Dong Tian felt bitter in his heart, and had not informed the Shaking Light Sacred Place in advance. As a result, he still got nothing, and if he had known this would be the case, it would have been better to send out a great favor instead. He hastily explained: "The first layer of divine treasure, the 'Tao Jing', flew away without warning, leaving behind only an empty box, with no one seeing the true scripture. Unexpectedly, the third layer of divine treasure was opened first, and the heart of the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan also disappeared into thin air. Now, only the second layer of divine treasure remains, and just half of its seal has been broken. It is likely that the greatest treasure of the Eastern Wasteland Human Clan is still inside. In addition, some of the heavy treasures used by the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan in his lifetime should also be present."

  "That Dao Scripture actually disappeared into thin air, how is this possible?!" The strong ones from the Shaking Light Sacred Land and the Ancient World's Ji Family all stared at the Sect Master of the Ling Xuan Cave Heaven, as if they couldn't believe it.

  The leader of the Lingxu Cave Heaven felt a lump in his throat. In the Eastern Wilderness, there were still several ancient classics that could be mentioned alongside the "Taoist Canon". It was said that they were all in the hands of those sacred places and ancient aristocratic families. They already had such celestial classics that were not inferior to the "Taoist Canon", yet they still wanted to seize this ancient classic. The leader of the Lingxu Cave Heaven could only sigh inwardly, shaking his head helplessly: "We really haven't seen..."

  Just then, from the distant horizon, came the sound of ethereal music, and a dozen or so women floated in, flying right over Ye Fan's head, startling him.

  These dozen or so women were all dressed in white, as if they had just emerged from the snow. Although they couldn't be described as absolutely beautiful, each one was elegant and refined, untainted by worldly airs. They were incredibly light and agile, floating and fluttering about like celestial beings dancing on the waves, or ethereal spirits rising up to dance. Uncontaminated by the mundane world, they seemed to transcend the ordinary.

  Some people play the bamboo flute with a gentle breeze, extremely pleasant to listen to. Some people smile lightly, making one feel like being in spring breeze. These women with beautiful eyebrows and eyes are all like celestial beings, carrying an otherworldly aura.

  Ye Fan was taken aback, feeling that this was the immortal he had imagined, looking ethereal and elegant, riding on a rainbow and wandering freely between heaven and earth.

  "Unexpectedly, even the long-dormant Yaochi Sacred Land has been stirred up. It's likely that before long, all the various sects and factions of the Eastern Wastes will swarm in."

  "Has Yaochi Sacred Ground always been detached from worldly disputes? Are you now seeking to contend for the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan's treasure?"

  Yao Guang and the Ancient World's Ji Family spoke at the same time, both as a greeting to more than a dozen beautiful girls and as a kind of probe.

  "We were just passing by, and found that the demonic energy here is vast like the sea, so we came to investigate. We didn't expect to meet all of you." A white-clothed woman smiled lightly, then revealed a serious expression, saying: "Unexpectedly, it's the tomb of the Great Emperor of the Demon Clan. I reckon that in the next few days, the entire Eastern Wilderness will be shaken, and countless sects will send people to come."

  In the distance, Ye Fan was extremely surprised. The words Yaochi, Jing surname, and Yaopool were all extraordinary. Especially Yaochi, which left a heavy mark in ancient Chinese mythology, unexpectedly also had a great origin on this side of the starry sky.
