Chapter 1613

Chapter 1613 - End Point

What was going on? Shi Hao’s thoughts were in chaos. He met the fat daoist priest again, and there was even a square-headed big-eared black dog!

That was the adult Cao Yusheng, or it could be said that it was the fat daoist priest after endless time, seeing the light of day again after being buried for who knew how many years.

“Time has become chaotic, there are also some events from unpredictable periods reflected after the long river of time struck against both shores.” Sanzang spoke.

That dog was too fierce, the shining black fur like a stellar stream flickering with dark light. Its body was massive, comparable to an archaic demonic mountain.

“What breed is this? Its aura is even more ferocious than prehistoric vicious beasts! Perhaps it can easily devour the Taoties, eat Hous!” Shenming revealed an expression of shock.

Three Life Medicine, was it really this precious?

Shi Hao finally deeply sensed how extraordinary that thing was. He originally thought only undead knights treated it like supreme treasures, never expecting that even the fat daoist wanted it so much!

“For Golden Undead Knights, Three Life Medicine is the number one treasure throughout the ages. Having one means that one can evolve into a Burial King. If that fattass made some progress, we can cut him off!” Shenming smiled.

It was because they were now already sure that those were merely future time fragments, not something that was really happening before their eyes. Even if the other side was a true immortal, he couldn’t do much to them.

Great graves were everywhere, lying in disarray, extremely strange.

That man and dog rushed about, overturning ancient tombs one after another. However, in the end, they were disappointed, not obtaining anything.

The void was unstable. Soon afterwards, they became indistinct, unable to appear for a long time.

Only, occasionally, there would be a barking noise, as well as the fat daoist priest’s angry berating.

Apart from this, there was the final cry of dejection, including that large black dog’s. They failed, not finding the Three Life Medicine.

Who were they trying to save? They actually found this place! This was the world beyond, a strange land above the various worlds.

During this process, Sanzang and Shenming quickly took action, sweeping through the surroundings. Their traces were left behind in one ancient tomb  after another.

This place was extremely strange, clearly in the starry sky, so why were there so many tombs?

However, all of the old tombs were empty, within them coffins, but no undead knights slumbering inside, even less skeletal remains.

It was completely empty, no creatures inside, no remains to be found. This place was just too vacant.

The Lightning Spirits were searching about. They carried the corpse on the woven mat, sweeping through the entire ancient tomb region, but ended up without any gains, thus continuing forward once more.

The following path took them along what seemed to be the edge of the universe. The realm walls were broken, time traces heavy. There were terrifying cracks that appeared in the void one after another, above the stellar remains, on the realm walls, continuously extending into the distance.

It was almost as if should someone shout a bit too loudly, this place would collapse.

However, when Sanzang released a fist, he discovered that this place was far sturdier than he imagined. At the very least, it could still exist for tens of thousands of years without breaking down.

“Yi, an altar. Look, there is an extremely ancient altar there. They are getting on, where are they going?” Shenming was shocked.

In this ruined abandoned land, there was an altar refined from unknown bones. It flickered with dim radiance, in the form of an ancient altar.

The activation method was extremely simple, as long as magical force was used, energy poured in, it would start up.

Five-pointed stellar radiance flickered. The hundreds of Lightning Spirits which carried that unmatched corpse disappearing just like that.

“Should we continue to chase them?” Shenming carried an expression of doubt.

They themselves didn’t even know where exactly they were now. They really were already quite far, breaking free from the foreign Ocean Fall, entering the unknown ancient space.

They saw Lightning Spirits carrying a corpse, followed them all the way here, seeing countless great graves along the way. Now, were they going to cross worlds and enter another unpredictable place?

“Look, the Kun Fry is still following!” Shi Hao said.

That fish was extremely resolute, following the entire time, not showing any intention of leaving.

“Perhaps the Ancestral Fry is still continuing its path of return. It is going to return to its birth place. We should follow as well!” Sanzang said.

Based on his understanding, the Ancestral Fry would leave their birthplace and head to various lands, for example, Ocean Fall, and then after growing to a set point, would follow the path of return.

Only, this path was too special, it wasn’t water, wasn’t a great river, but rather the cosmos, and even an altar!

In the end, they quickly advanced. They were once again scared of being left behind by Lightning Spirits, so they proceeded into this new journey. 

Five-pointed radiance flickered about. They appeared on a platform, chaotic energy pervading the air around them, ruined stars everywhere. This was still an abandoned place.

Not far out was another altar.

They could sense the remnant aura and fluctuations of the Lightning Spirits after they left.

“Where are they going? If we continuously borrow altars to advance, can we even return?” Even the cool-headed Sanzang felt a bit of a headache right now, starting to reveal doubt.

However, did they even have a choice?

They gave each other a look, and then continued forward.

This time, after being transported out from the altar, they discovered that they were on an ancient tree. It was incredibly massive, entirely dried-up, lacking branches and leaves.

“Dried-up divine tree, it died halfway through its evolution into a World Tree. Even this part of space withered away with it!” Sanzang’s expression was serious.

This made them wonder if the places they were passing through were all ancient worlds, and not from the same sea of stars, instead entirely different sets of heaven and earth.

Just like that, they continuously entered different places. Whenever they came out, they could see an altar, all of them with complex formation patterns, suspected to be connected to different worlds.

They were transported again and again, passing through altars nine times, only then did they approach their destination.

They called this the destination, because they saw the Lightning Spirits stop. Moreover, there were no more altars for them to continue through.

Where was this? It was even more spacious and empty, overcast, as if this was a world that had just been established, all things not formed yet. No living beings could  be seen, everything just that primitive.

Primordial energy flowed through this place, yin and yang intertwining.

“So strange!”

They weren’t sure if they could still return, because those altars seemed uni-directional, couldn’t be used for round trips.

The Lightning Spirits lingered about here. In the end, they moved together, passing through a misty region, directly moving through the void. They seemed to be extremely excited.

“Did they find the place they were looking for?” Sanzang revealed an expression of surprise.

The path ahead was extremely special, and also extremely strange. Broken war halberds, shattered stone hatchets, warships full of holes, all of these actually suddenly appeared.

In the primal chaos mist, more and more abandoned warships appeared, as well as broken weapons and other things.

It was clear that there was a great battle that happened here before.

“This is extremely terrifying. Even though those weapons and other things have been completely destroyed, their symbols also believed to be erased, I can still sense how powerful they used to be. There is no lack of immortal artifacts among them!” Shenming came to this conclusion.

There were some that were previously world shocking weapons, but they were destroyed, traces completely erased. Unfortunately, the immortal dao gold essence had been removed.

“We arrived! There is a pair of gates there!”

“Such large… gates?”

These were a pair of stone gates. They really were too large, before it, stars even seemed small, towering in the starry sky just like that, unknown where they lead to.

Meanwhile, in front of the gate, the various artifacts became more and more numerous. Apart from warships, there were even ruined islands.

Instead of calling them islands, they were more like meteorites, refined into their current forms.

Only, they didn’t have symbols, no divine force fluctuations, all of their essence completely removed, only bone material remaining.

Some weapons, for example, purple hammers were as large as moons. Half of the artifacts were removed, all of the essence flowing away, also scattered across this place.

Skeletal remains could be seen one after another, unknown just how powerful they were when they were alive. Now, only skins and imperishable bones remained.

“It is hard to imagine that these were all exceptional experts, unimaginable creatures, yet in the end, so many fell. Back then, what exactly happened here?”

Was it precisely this stone gate that was cutting off their path forward?

Shi Hao suspected that the magical artifacts, creatures, and other things were terrifyingly high in level, just that due to some unknown reasons, all of their essence was extracted, dao laws removed, only damaged bones remaining, all of their past brilliance erased.

“Wait, there is a bit of familiar smell.” Shi Hao suddenly said.

Not far out, there was a meteorite right before the stone gate. There was a creature on top who had long died for who knew how many tens of thousands of years, flesh dried up, essence energy completely gone.

“There is actually still blood in front of his body that hasn’t dried yet!”

This was a shocking discovery. All of the creature’s essence had disappeared, yet he actually still had some blood left. Comparatively speaking, this was a miracle, an important discovery.

In front of that creature were a few words, extremely ancient and mysterious, written in blood.

The front half was golden blood, the latter half written in black blood.

However, Shi Hao didn’t recognize these words!

“Can’t… go back!” Sanzang said these words. He actually recognized these words, moreover telling Shi Hao that this was true immortal text!
