Peerless Divine Doctor
Chapter 1696 - 1698, Netherworld Palace’s Withered Bones
Through the sea of clouds, Ye Luo saw that the mountains below were incredibly small.
Where is this?
How can there be such a giant mountain here?
Furthermore, it’s been deliberately modified, such a tall mountain like this must be exceedingly cold. Reasonably speaking, Ye Luo is already at the Spirit Martial Realm Second Rank, he shouldn’t fear ordinary cold currents.
Yet that’s not the case, Ye Luo has only been here a short while and already feels extremely cold!
No, it’s the Spiritual Power here, the Spiritual Power here is peculiar!
The Spiritual Power here actually contains a chilling aura!
Damn this place, what on earth is it!
Flowers, grasses, and trees?
Aren’t ice trees and snowflowers included?
Stones and mounds?
Aren’t those buildings surrounded by solid ice included?
What the hell is this place?
Suddenly, while Ye Luo was pondering, several javelins immediately shot down around him.
Instantly, these javelins encircled Ye Luo!
It was like a cage!
"Who trespasses the Guardian’s land?"
Along with this voice, several snow monsters with white fur all over their bodies emerged!
These snow monsters were quite large, comparable to Man Niu, and the white fur on their bodies made them look very robust.
In their hands, ice spears condensed, indicating the intention to fight at any slight disagreement!
When Ye Luo looked over, he sensed their power; they were all Ninth Rank Spirit Martial Realm beings.
Where exactly is this place?
Damn, that old demon clan man sent me here, what is he attempting to do?
At that moment, Ye Luo was filled with countless questions but unfortunately had no idea where to seek answers.
Thinking of the elder’s words, Ye Luo said directly, "I am from the Human Race, here to retrieve what belongs to us!"
"What, you actually wish to take away..."
"Silence! Since there’s an agreement, our tribe should adhere to it!"
Suddenly, another snow monster appeared in front of Ye Luo, silently, it’s not because he was powerful, but because he possessed a special Magical Treasure!
A Magical Treasure that hides any trace of oneself completely.
"Human race lad, since you have come to retrieve that item, you should be aware of the danger involved. According to the agreement, now the time has come to return it to your Human Race, I have no objection, but whether you can retrieve it depends on your own abilities!
Fine, proceed to the Netherworld Palace’s eighteenth layer, where the item is sealed. Whether you can make it through depends on your skill; moreover, our demon clan is not obliged to assist you humans, so if you die on the way, it’s none of our concern!"
Finished speaking, the snow monster unhesitatingly left with the other snow monsters.
But Ye Luo really had no idea what occurred, damn it, wasn’t I just here to the demon clan’s Sacred Temple to marry a Saintess? How did I end up encountering this situation?
They said to retrieve something? But what exactly is that item? And how to take it?
Isn’t this bullying?
Ye Luo looked around at the vast expanse of white, realizing there was no way to leave here; clearly, it seemed Ye Luo only had one option now, which was to obtain that item!
Though he didn’t even know what it was.
Ye Luo inspected it closely, discovering there was only one structure around, resembling a doorway, so he didn’t hesitate, breaking through the ice and heading inside!
Indeed, as the snow monster said, this is an underground passage, clearly, the sealed item is buried within this giant mountain.
Ye Luo walked forward step by step, finding it was completely different from the outside. Outside ice and snow made people feel chilled, but here was scorching hot.
Like a cave, but it’s not merely that simple!
On his way through, Ye Luo encountered countless sculptures, these sculptures seemed to be narrating a story.
However, the exact story remained unknown.
These sculptures appeared to depict a war, and judging from their appearance, it was likely between the demon clan and the human race.
What secret is concealed here?
What story is here intending to portray?
Ye Luo continued forward, suddenly a swordsman appeared in front of Ye Luo.
Silently, Ye Luo furrowed his brow but realized this person had long been dead, merely his powerful pre-mortem strength preserved him, apparently, he should have been a guardian here!
Normally, one would have to defeat this person to proceed to the next stage, but due to the long time elapsed, this person was already deceased.
Clearly visible, even in death, he stood here, hoping that the residual power after death might deter outsiders.
Likely beneath the Netherworld Palace, indeed, something extremely important is preserved!
At that moment, Ye Luo had some insight, though not yet knowing what it was, he felt the sealed item below was likely extremely important!
Soon, Ye Luo passed the first layer.
The second layer held similar conditions, but there were many skeletons this time!
Judging from their equipment, these people likely were warriors guarding this place, but ultimately they perished here!
At the entrance stood another warrior with an undying body.
Ye Luo found it hard to imagine how they managed to endure.
Indeed, due to the Earth Fire, the Netherworld Palace had illumination, but nothing here, no water!
When these people died, Ye Luo didn’t know, nor could he verify.
Who are they, why are they here!
Many questions filled Ye Luo’s heart, yet the answers, currently Ye Luo had no idea.
Ye Luo continued forward layer by layer, skeletons became more abundant, astonishingly amounting to many strong figures!
Silently, they perished here, what were they guarding?
Originally Ye Luo thought there would be trials requiring challenges to reach the deeper levels.
He didn’t expect it was so simple, letting him proceed directly downwards!
Finally, Ye Luo reached the last layer!
Like the other places, it held countless skeletons, countless undying bodies.
But this layer was much neater than the previous ones.
A throne, a crown! Additionally, a sword!
