Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao - Chapter 4090
Chapter 4090: Red-Haired Beauty
The appearance of a Saint in the team naturally calmed everyone’s hearts.
At present, there were no Emperors in the world, and the Crystal Saint also had the Imperial Weapon. Thus, no matter what kind of danger they encountered, the Crystal Saint could resolve it.
Speaking of which, the Crystal Saint really unlucky. Though his speed was faster, he had completely lost his sense of direction in the sea of blood. In truth, he had just arrived here, but Saints were Saints after all, so he was still faster than the others.
Furthermore, he was the first to arrive among the three Saints, which showed that Saints were actually not very useful here.
The deeper they went into the island, the thicker the fog became. Another day later, they really couldn’t even see their own fingers.
The Crystal Saint summoned his Imperial Weapon. The Mysterious Ice Banner danced above his head, easily tearing a hole into the blood mist. The area within 3000 meters became clear again.
The Imperial Weapon was the Imperial Weapon, after all. It hadn’t awakened yet, yet it was already so mighty. If it fully awakened, would it be able to raze this sea of blood to the ground?
Seeing the might of the Imperial Weapon, everyone’s courage increased greatly.
Even if an Ancestral King came back to life, the Imperial Weapon should be able to last a few moves, right?
In Ling Han’s mind, the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower trembled slightly.
It was doing it again. This guy seemed to have been provoked, and was determined to jump out and fight.
“Yi?” The Crystal Saint looked slightly surprised, because he could feel the Imperial Weapon become restless, as if it had been provoked. It was actually showing signs of awakening on its
own.
However, the problem was that there weren’t any other Imperial Weapon here.
Could it be that the Ancestral King that had set up this place had also left behind the Imperial Weapon, and it was presently on this island? That was why the Imperial Weapon had sensed it, and that was why it wanted to actively awaken and battle it?
-Which Ancestral King hadn’t swept through the world and ruled over an era? Thus, the Ancestral King’s ambition was higher than the heavens, and the Imperial Weapon that they had forged was naturally unafraid of any challenge.
“Be careful. It’s extremely likely that there’s an Imperial Weapon standing guard here!” the old Saint said.
Hearing his words, everyone paled in shock.
If the Imperial Weapons engaged in a fierce battle, even Saints would have no option but to turn around and flee. In fact, if they were the slightest bit slower, their only fate would be death.
At this moment, even the Venerate Tiers almost wanted to retreat. It was too dangerous. Only Ling Han knew the truth, and he couldn’t help but wear a strange expression.
If everyone knew that he was the cause of this Saint looking like he was facing a great enemy, or rather, it was the Primal Chaos Extreme Lightning Tower in his mind, would he be beaten to death by these Venerate Tiers that had flown into a rage out of humiliation?
Yes, it was really possible.
Hence, he definitely could not say.
Ling Han was also slightly proud of himself. This was something that could induce fear in the hearts of a group of Venerate Tiers. He, a Core Formation Tier, should be the one and only to achieve this in history.
Everyone was extremely careful. It was extremely possible that there was another Imperial Weapon here. Once it unleashed its might, even Saints would be killed. It was extremely dangerous, and they had to be extremely careful.
The Mysterious Ice Banner fluttered lightly, and the blood mist in front of them was easily dispersed, giving everyone a clear view.
All around them, stone pillars soared into the sky one after another, and what was terrifying was that there was actually a corpse pierced by every stone pillar. However, the bloodstains of the majority of the corpses had only flowed to one third of the length of the stone pillars, and were gone. Hence, at this moment, though the air of their blood spread out, they could not be discovered.
These corpses were all Venerate Tier corpses.
The sea was filled with the corpses of Saints, while this place was filled with the corpses of Venerate Tier elites. They were all hanging on stone pillars like livestock. Was this a sacrificial ceremony for worship?
There was also the pile of skulls from before, and there was no shortage of Venerate Tiers and Saints among them. Otherwise, it could not have possibly formed such a terrifying pressure.
Just what kind of world was this!
“Let’s go, continue walking!”
Led by the Saint, they continued onwards, penetrating deep into this island, and the further ahead they went, the steeper the terrain became. On the fifth day, a mountain peak appeared
ahead of them.
“Let’s go!”
Now that they were here, there was naturally no reason for them to retreat. They all ascended the mountain.
However, though the environment here was terrifying, with Saint corpses and Venerate Tier corpses appearing at the drop of a hat, there was actually no danger at all. On the other side of the great ocean, there were still Yin souls, but here, there weren’t even any ghosts.
The mountain was very tall, but there was a Saint here, so what was the height of the mountain worth?
In less than half a day, they had already arrived at the summit.
“Yi!” “Ah!” “Ya!”
After reaching the summit, quite a number of people immediately exclaimed in shock. That was because there was a blood-coloured great tree at the summit, but it did not have even half a leaf. Its thick trunk was actually semi-transparent like jade.
What caused everyone to exclaim in shock was how innumerable branches hung down, supporting a woman.
This woman was wearing a blood-coloured long dress, and her hair was also blood-red. As the mountain winds blew, it fluttered slightly, like flames.
Her eyes were tightly closed, as if she was sleeping, but even so, her beauty was still world-
shaking.
Even Ling Han had to admit that this woman’s beauty was already not inferior to the empress and Hu Niu.
And near the Blood Tree, there were also blood-coloured giant eggs, as tall as a man. They were no longer semi-transparent, but every single one of them was squirming slightly, as if
life was nurtured within.
This scene was too bizarre.
That red-haired woman was breathtakingly beautiful, but those giant blood-coloured eggs were disgusting. The two images intertwined, incompatible, yet inseparable.
“Is she dead?” someone murmured, starry-eyed.
“How could such a beautiful woman possibly die!” Immediately, someone rebuked, his face similarly filled with adoration.
To say nothing of these youngsters, even a few Venerate Tiers looked captivated.
This woman was really too dazzlingly beautiful, causing their hearts that were completely focused on cultivation to waver.
Immediately, someone wanted to rush up and “rescue” the red beauty.
“Wait!”
There were always calm people, especially those Venerate Tiers who had cultivated for so many years. Even if their minds were affected, they could still control themselves very well.
“I can sense that this Blood Tree is extracting the energy from the ground, supplying it to that woman!” a Venerate Tier said.
“That’s right, and I have a bold conjecture. Previously, those Venerate Tiers that had been stabbed to death on the stone pillars had all had their energy essence extracted and transformed by this Blood Tree in some way, to be supplied to her,” another Venerate Tier
said.
When everyone heard this, some immediately looked shocked, while others shook their
heads.
“Impossible, how could such an exceptionally beautiful, untainted woman possibly do such a cruel thing!” These people refused to believe it.
“It is indeed impossible that this woman was the culprit,” the Crystal Saint said. “To be able to kill so many Saints, it must be the handiwork of a Great Emperor. However, this place has existed for who knows how many years, and there has never been a Great Emperor that could
live for so long.”
“Furthermore, if this woman was really a Great Emperor, and we were so close, we would have long since been shocked to death by the Imperial Might.”
This was indeed very useful evidence. Furthermore, if this woman was really a Great Emperor, then no one should have any extravagant hopes with regards to her.
