The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 143

Chapter 143 Ascend An Altar
Li Qing and Liu Ke’er looked at the middle-aged man sitting motionlessly on the stage and had a faint guess in their hearts. They felt that this person was most likely the legendary Demon Ancestor.

Apart from the Demon Ancestor, who else could have such terrifying magic power?

Even though he had died for so many years, his fleshly body was still immortal. It was difficult to look straight at him, and no one dared to blaspheme him at all.

After walking in this place for so long and passing through so many difficulties, they finally saw this legendary and terrifying existence.

This also meant that they had probably reached the end of this purple world, and there was no other way to go.

Whether or not he could walk out alive depended on whether or not he could find a way to survive here.

At this moment, the two of them stood extremely far away, looking at the altar from afar, not daring to approach, fearing that something terrible would happen. They couldn’t help but be cautious in the face of such a notorious figure like the Demon Ancestor.

The altar was very calm. Nothing had happened. There seemed to be no danger. It was very peaceful. Apart from seeing the Demon Ancestor directly making them feel extremely uncomfortable, there didn’t seem to be any other major problems.

After waiting for a long time, Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but ask, “What should we do now? Should we get closer?”

Li Qing pondered for a while and felt a little uneasy. He said, “Let’s watch the surroundings first. If there really is no other choice, let’s get closer.”

In fact, the Heavenly Saber in his hand was trembling violently all the time, and he constantly sent out urgent thoughts, calling for him to approach. However, he was very cautious, feeling a little afraid in his heart. He felt that something bad would happen, so he did not approach him easily.

Next, the two of them began to walk around the altar carefully, observing their surroundings as they walked.

With the altar as the center, it formed a huge space. All of it was enveloped by purple demonic energy, and it was impossible to see what was there.

The demonic energy here became even denser. It was as if the chaos energy was surging, and a faint wave could be heard. It was heaven-shaking and earth-shattering. It seemed to possess great power, causing people to lose their color in shock.

They slowly walked around the altar, but they didn’t find anything. There was only an empty altar in the middle.

He didn’t find any other way out, as if this was a place of death.

The two of them couldn’t help but look a little ugly. Could it be that he really wanted to approach this terrifying altar? Both of them felt that there must be a great deal of danger.

The altar was ancient and unadorned, condensed from demonic energy. It was completely natural and had an indescribable charm.

The Demon Ancestor sat there motionlessly, seemingly unharmed, causing one to relax their guard.

Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but say dejectedly, “No matter what, let’s try to ascend the altar now. What are you afraid of? Isn’t it just a dead person? It’s been so many years since he died. Is there anything else we can do?”

Li Qing didn’t have any good ideas. He could only helplessly say, “Alright, now there’s no other choice. I can only go up to the altar and take a look. I hope there won’t be any dangers.”

The two of them agreed and gathered their courage to slowly walk towards the altar.

The further they walked towards the middle, the more they felt an unspeakable pressure, and their hearts became heavy.

“Rumble!”

Not long after they left, the purple energy began to surge violently, boiling like hot water. It was as if Li Qing and Liu Ke’er had violated the majesty of their Sovereign Kings by approaching.

The endless purple demonic energy in the surroundings quickly gathered like a terrifying ocean tide, wave after wave pressing down on the two of them.

The two of them only felt as if they were facing a great calamity, as if they were facing an abyss, as if they had fallen into hell, their entire bodies icy cold, cold sweat flowing down their spines.

Unable to see the surrounding scenery clearly, endless demonic energy surrounded them. They were filled with killing intent, covering the sky and earth. It was as if they would be completely submerged in the next moment. Then, they would dissipate and disintegrate into ash.

Their faces were pale and their entire bodies trembled. They didn’t expect that just wanting to get close to the altar would cause the purple demonic energy to riot like this, wanting to put them to death.

The two of them were only a step away from death when they saw the demonic energy surging over like a sea, like a mountain overwhelming them.

Suddenly, the Heavenly Saber trembled violently, emitting a brilliant purple radiance that pierced the heavens and the earth, illuminating the purple demonic energy, causing them to gradually calm down and stop attacking.

However, Li Qing and Liu Ke’er were still surrounded by endless dense demonic energy, trapped in the center, unable to leave.

It was like a rock in the ocean.

At this time, the Heavenly Saber released a purple light, which shot into the devil energy. The purple gas separated a passage like seawater.

This purple light tore apart the sea of demonic energy, illuminating the altar all the time and strangely fusing with it.

The originally calm altar shook abruptly, as if it was slowly awakening. A terrifying demonic energy that shook the entire world was emitted from the altar.

It was as if the ancient devil god was slowly awakening, and it began to emit a faint purple light, deep and gloomy.

Seeing this scene, the two of them felt a chill run down their spines, cold sweat flowing down their spines. This altar had undergone such a terrifying change. It looked extremely dangerous. Should we continue to move forward?

A dilemma!

If they didn’t advance, they wouldn’t be able to retreat. They were surrounded by the Devil Qi Sea, blocking their path of retreat. They had no way to retreat.

Just as they were hesitating, the purple light emitted by the Heavenly Saber slowly disappeared, and the passageway was slowly closing. It could be foreseen that if they were completely closed, they would be drowned in boundless demonic energy and crushed to ashes.

“Charge!”

There was no time to think about it. Li Qing immediately made a decision and shouted. The two of them immediately rushed over before the passage was closed.

They smoothly rushed to the altar, feeling that the pressure here was as deep as the sea, almost crushing their bodies.

The two of them raised one foot with difficulty and stepped onto the first stone staircase above the altar.

It was as if they had broken through an invisible barrier. They only felt as if they had entered a bubble, a barrier.

The pressure here was even greater. It was twice as great as the pressure outside. It was as if his body was directly under the pressure of a large mountain.

“Hold on!” Li Qing shouted loudly and grabbed Liu Ke’er’s hand, climbing step by step towards the top of the altar.

Liu Ke’er’s face was pale. She was almost fainting, and her consciousness was unclear.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Qing felt that if this continued, she would definitely not be able to hold on. He gritted his teeth and directly carried her on his back, then walked up with difficulty.

The pressure from the two of them was on Li Qing, the extent of which could be imagined. However, Li Qing was actually a dual cultivator of the Dharma and Physique, his strength was strong, and he was still able to persevere at the beginning.

The further back he went, the harder it would be. The pressure was getting heavier and heavier. He felt that his body was almost numb, and he lost consciousness. Only his spirit was left to support him.

He was almost unable to hold on anymore!

His expression was extremely ferocious, and his entire body began to slowly ooze blood. It was extremely frightening. The bones on his body emitted a crackling sound, as if they were about to shatter.

Li Qing immediately took out the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk, and then lifted his head to consume it. Immediately, he recovered his strength and his injuries became much better.

At this moment, he discovered that the bottle was completely empty. There was no ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk left. This was already the last drop.

The treasures that had repeatedly saved their lives had finally been used up. From now on, he had no other way out and had to succeed once.

He took a deep breath and continued to walk up bravely, his heart firm and ethereal.

He was coughing up blood as he climbed up. It was as if this body was no longer his body, but an artifact. Even if it was broken, it didn’t feel anything.

Liu Ke’er gradually woke up. Seeing Li Qing covered in blood, she was shocked. She could not help but struggle to get down, but she was hugged tightly by him.

“Put me down! Put me down!” Liu Ke’er shouted.

However, Li Qing remained unmoved. His gaze was like iron as he stared fixedly at the stage, filled with crazy obsession.

‘”Ah–” He shouted and rushed forward abruptly. Regardless, the last ten meters had actually rushed straight over!

Relying on this last frantic charge, Li Qing finally carried Liu Ke’er onto the altar.
