Chapter 196: Golden Skeleton

Li Lingtian watched as the Ten Thousand Year Frost Iron flew up. He extended one hand and put away the Divine Array Diagram. At the same time, he activated the Divine Dragon Ring and a shocking suction force appeared, sucking the Ten Thousand Year Frost Iron into it.

Although the Ten-Millennium-Frigid Ice Iron was not refined by his Divine Consciousness, Li Lingtian took advantage of the power of his Ascension to retrieve it.

The moment the Ten Thousand Year Frost Iron was taken away, a destructive pressure came from the sea. This pressure came from below the array altar.

After the array altar disappeared, a huge gray hole appeared. The size of the hole was almost the same as the array altar.

“This is the aura, this is the aura.”

Hua Chengfeng shouted out in a trembling voice as if he had seen a ghost.

When he said that, all the Martial Emperors had been crushed by this pressure. In this pressure, Martial Emperors were worse than ants.

All the Martial Emperors were pressed onto the ground of the Sea Area. They couldn’t move at all, not even their fingers.

“Pfft.”

Li Lingtian spat out a mouthful of blood as his face turned pale. He had never seen such a pressure before.

Moreover, this pressure was somewhat familiar. When he met the Nine Yang Saint Lord, the Nine Yang Saint Lord’s phantom had such an aura.

However, the Saint Lord of Nine Yang was only a consciousness and a soul. Otherwise, he would have been crushed to death.

“Divine Pressure.”

Li Lingtian muttered to himself as the expression of horror on his face changed continuously.

No wonder this place was suppressed by the Natural Gravity Formation. It turned out that there were Real Gods here that the Divine Martial Continent could not touch.

” Flaming Sacred Body, Nine Suns Sacred Flame.”

Thinking of the Nine Yang Saint Lord, he circulated his Fire Martial Soul. He had the Flaming Sacred Body and had fused with the Immemorial Ice Crystal. The fusion of the ice crystal and the flames, coupled with the Nine Yang Saint Lord’s soul, had a certain resistance against this kind of oppressive aura.

“Are you guys going down?”

Li Lingtian felt much more relaxed after he kept the oppressive aura around him at bay. He then shouted at the other Martial Emperors.

However, after shouting, he felt that he was dumbfounded. More than 30 Martial Emperors were being suppressed.

It was impossible for him to move at all. In front of this pressure, it was impossible to even leave, let alone continue.

” Sir Ling Tian, I’ll need you to make a move this time. This pressure is extending from the bottom. If we want to break this pressure, we can only start from the source.”

Zhao Linhai revealed a bitter smile. In front of this pressure, they were even inferior to ants.

However, he was shocked to see how relaxed Li Lingtian was.

A young man who was a Martial Arts Grandmaster did not pose any threat in the face of such pressure. Moreover, he still wanted to go down. This was infuriating.

“This Young Master will have a slim chance of survival if I go down. If I can come back alive, you can also leave. If this Young Master can’t come out, you can only pray for your own good fortune.”

With a faint smile on his face, Li Lingtian’s body flashed and disappeared in the blink of an eye. He then entered the hole left behind by the Array Altar.

Li Lingtian felt a tinge of regret when he entered the cave. The pressure outside the cave could easily crush a Martial Emperor to death. The pressure inside the cave was countless times stronger than the outside.

The deeper they went, the stronger the pressure became. Even he could feel the crushing pressure of destruction.

However, it was too late to go back on his word. It was impossible for him to come out. His body kept falling.

“Pfft.”

He spat out a mouthful of blood and his body landed on the ground.

After landing, he was shocked to find that this was a palace, unlike the bottom of the sea.

Seawater could not enter through the hole. Inside the palace, the destructive pressure continued to crush him.

“Eh?”

At that moment, Li Lingtian could feel the few treasures in his Dantian vibrating as if they had seen a delicious meal.

The Heaven Extreme Tyrant Emperor Saber, the Roaring Dragon Combat Halberd, and the Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron were all trembling.

Li Lingtian smiled bitterly at the sight. With a flick of his Divine Consciousness, three treasures flew out.

There was no other way. If he did not take out the three treasures, although he had fused with the treasures, they would also break out of his body.

The three treasures floated in the air and kept spinning. The pressure and aura in the palace were constantly devoured by the three treasures.

Yes, devour.

Li Lingtian suddenly understood that his three treasures were also Divine Artifacts. Naturally, he liked the aura.

However, the Divine Dragon Ring didn’t react to this aura at all. Instead, it formed an independent space. This aura and pressure couldn’t get close to the Divine Dragon Ring.

The pressure became thinner and thinner. In the end, all the pressure disappeared and entered the three treasures.

“Shh.”

At the bottom of the sea, more than thirty Martial Emperors heaved a sigh of relief. The disappearance of the pressure lifted them from their despair, and their faces were filled with horror.

“Finally disappeared.”

“What is this aura?”

” Even a Martial Saint or Martial God doesn’t have such an aura. Could it be the aura of a god?”

” God’s aura. Only this kind of aura can make sense.”

” That’s not important. What’s important is that he actually ignored this aura and pressure. You should know that no matter how powerful a martial artist is, they are all treated equally in the face of pressure unless they have some heaven-defying treasure or physique.”

“You mean to say that he has something to do with this aura?”

” Of course. Otherwise, a 17-year-old young man who has reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm and easily killed a Martial Emperor would only be able to explain this aura.”

All of a sudden, more than thirty Martial Emperors were shocked, more and more shocked.

To be able to deal with such an aura, he was definitely a heaven-defying existence. At least, a Martial Emperor could not be so heaven-defying.

“Do you want to go down and take a look?”

Hua Chengfeng asked. He was aware of the danger down there but since Li Lingtian could deal with the aura, he must have a way to survive down there. He wanted to go down and take a look as well.

However, after he finished speaking, all the Martial Emperors fell silent. They didn’t know whether they should go down or leave.

Li Lingtian watched from below as the pressure dissipated. He felt a sense of relief as the three treasures floated in the air.

He took the three treasures and slowly walked forward. He threw a pill into his mouth to recover his shaken mind.

After walking for an unknown period of time, Li Lingtian had already explored the entire palace.

Rather than calling it a palace, it was more like a square, a sealed square.

It was a square with a radius of a thousand meters. There was nothing in the square.

However, at this moment, a five-meter-wide staircase suddenly appeared in the center of the square. The staircase slowly rose.

Finally, he stopped when he was five meters high. Li Lingtian’s heart sank when he saw everything on the stairs.

This was because there was a middle-aged man in green sitting cross-legged on the steps. He looked solemn.

Although he was sitting in an ordinary posture and didn’t emit any aura or life force, this middle-aged man gave people the urge to worship him.

Junior Li Lingtian greets senior.”

In his shock, Li Lingtian did not dare to bow at all. Instead, he quickly bowed to the man on the central steps.

Li Lingtian could not imagine the man’s strange appearance when he thought of the mysterious and shocking pressure.

” I’m Li Lingtian. Greetings, senior. I’ve trespassed into your cultivation cave abode by mistake. Please forgive me.”

” Li Lingtian saluted again. However, a thought crossed his mind.’This middle-aged man must have passed away. Otherwise, why would there be no life force or any movement?’

However, even so, he did not dare to be careless. After all, he could not be rude before he confirmed the life and death of the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man did not show any signs of movement even after five consecutive salutations. Li Lingtian continued walking forward step by step.

Finally, he came to the front of the steps. In front of the steps, he carefully used his divine sense.

His divine sense swept across the middle-aged man’s body, and a destructive pressure erupted. What was even more powerful was that destructive divine sense, which was countless times stronger than his own.

“Pfft.”

His divine sense was shaken and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His consciousness gradually blurred.

“No.”

Li Lingtian gritted his teeth as he shouted indignantly. He then cast the Divine Array Diagram and a formation appeared around him, enveloping him within.

He circulated all the true essence in his body and began to use a cultivation technique to stabilize his mind and soul.

After a full ten minutes, he gradually regained consciousness. His face was pale, and when he looked at the middle-aged man, he was even more afraid.

This man had been dead for an unknown period of time, but the powerful divine sense that was left behind in this man’s body had made him almost invincible.

When Li Lingtian looked at the middle-aged man again, he had already disappeared.

The middle-aged man didn’t disappear, but he had already fallen on the stairs. His face had also turned into a skeleton, a golden skeleton.

The green robe was still on his body. If his face hadn’t turned into a skeleton, he wouldn’t even know if this middle-aged man was really dead.

After resting for a moment, Li Lingtian waved his hand and put away the array. He then slowly walked up the stairs, his heart trembling.

Li Lingtian felt a little more relaxed when he reached the top of the stairs because he was certain that the man in green was dead.

It had even turned into a skeleton, a golden skeleton.

“Could it be an expert above the Martial God Realm?”

” That’s impossible. Even if it’s a Martial God expert, the skeleton that they turn into after death will gradually decay. However, this expert is a golden skeleton. He must be an expert above the Martial God Realm.”

Li Lingtian muttered to himself. He knew a lot about the Divine Martial Continent. The skeletons of powerhouses above the Martial God Realm were tens of thousands of times stronger than ordinary Warriors after their deaths.

Golden skeletons were something that only powerhouses above the Martial God Realm had..
