Primordial Divine Emperor-Chapter 341 - 175: Terrifying Scene, Forced to Merge Swords

At this moment in the Blood-colored Mountain Range, the sky was filled with fluttering blood-red leaves, the mountains shook, and the scene was extremely visually impactful. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Countless terrifying cultivators atop golden pyramids all stared wide-eyed at the shocking scene, their expressions gradually shifting from shock to awe, fear, disbelief, and incredulity.

Accompanied by the roar sounding neither human nor beast, everyone witnessed a hair-raising scene.

In that boundless, vast, and eerie blood-colored mountain range, countless dense bones began to move. They slowly climbed up, twisting their skeletal bodies in bizarre poses, and actually stood up.

The bone structures resembling bone mountains started to move, all 'resurrecting'.

At this moment, Ye Xiaofan and the others finally saw the source of that roar.

It was a Bone Mountain, towering a thousand feet high, with countless bones buried beneath it to form an immensely tall corpse mountain. Atop the mountain stood a rotting figure, tall and imposing, exuding a sense of grandeur.

The one making the eerie roar was precisely that figure standing atop the corpse mountain, silently gazing upon the land.

Even though separated by an endless distance, everyone could clearly see—it was a corpse!

A corpse that hasn't turned completely into bones after endless ages.

"Oh god, it's summoning those skeletons."

"Not good, there's indeed a change happening here; everyone, be careful."

For a moment, many terrifying figures realized the predicament, their faces aghast, eyes filled with shock and terror.

Some cultivators, who learned about the Blood-colored Mountain Range from ancient texts or tales of their 'predecessors', breathed raspily, "No wonder it was so quiet when we first entered here; a Corpse King has formed, commanding all the blood corpses, which is why they didn't attack initially."

As these words were spoken, the faces of those at the endless golden pyramid top turned deathly pale.

According to their understanding, when those senior sisters and brothers crossed the Land of Great Evil before, endless blood corpses attacked them; however, those blood corpses attacked aimlessly, even without a subconscious urge for mass attack, usually only disturbed to fall into terrifying danger.

But now it was different; here, a Corpse King emerged, capable of commanding those blood corpses to attack. The roar just now was ordering them.

Watching this scene, Ye Xiaofan and others were utterly astonished. With little understanding of this land, they couldn't imagine those corpse seas could actually 'resurrect'.

For a moment, the entire Blood-colored Mountain Range boiled over, countless corpse seas writhing, standing upright, their skulls 'clattering' together, all facing in the direction of numerous Righteous and Demonic Dao cultivators, as if they could see Ye Xiaofan and others.

"Darn, it's Ancient Blood Corpses." Nangong Jianchen's expression turned extremely ugly upon seeing.

"Ancient Blood Corpses?" Ye Xiaofan instinctively asked, hearing of this for the first time.

Mo Shiyi, with a grave face, couldn't help but explain, "Ancient Blood Corpses, they were terrifying existences in life. Even after death, their bones hardly weather, and in certain special environments, their remains absorb the Essence of Blood and Qi, thus preserving their integrity."

This means that those whose bones remain intact after endless ages were terrifying and formidable in life, with their cultivation fearsome. Their bones had long shed mortal nature, even time struggled to erode them quickly.

"These remains retain part of their power from life. The older the remains, the more astonishing the strength, and this residual power might even grow due to environmental factors."

"Of course, once a person dies, it's true extinction. These remains have little connection to their past life, akin to a new individual, lacking memories of life."

"Some powerful blood corpses, after absorbing the Essence of Blood and Qi over endless time, can even generate a new consciousness, becoming a complete new life form."

"Once these blood corpses develop a new consciousness, they become 'Corpse Cultivators'; few Corpse Cultivators eventually achieve 'Flesh and Bone', reaching the peak, akin to cultivators, the only distinction being lack of a soul, possessing self-awareness and life instead."

Listening to Mo Shiyi's explanation, waves surged in Ye Xiaofan's eyes.

At this point, those blood corpses had risen en masse, moving their skeletal frames like living beings, their sinister bone hands gripping weapons used in life; despite those weapons being rusted, most hardly intact, they still emitted faint power.

Everyone looking at the densely packed corpse sea felt their scalps tingle.

What terrified everyone more was the eerie aura emanating from those remains, an aura comparable to strong cultivators at the 'Peak of Spiritual Essence Realm'.

This means it's a vast army comparable to the peak of Spiritual Essence Realm, so overwhelming it makes one's scalp tingle.

"The power of 'Peak of Spiritual Essence Realm'." Shangguan Xingyu stared fiercely at the land, breathing extremely rapidly.

Mo Shiyi swallowed hard.
