Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 1177 The Burial Ground of the Immortals

“Stay here.” Wen Duoqing flashed and blocked Meng Qi’s way. The two of them fought in an instant. Immortal light filled the air, and the rules of the Immortal Tao collided in the void. Black holes directly appeared, which was extremely terrifying.

“I am the No. 1 Immortal since ancient times. How could you be worthy of fighting against me?” Meng Qi roared, countless immortal feathers erupting.

Wen Duoqing just smiled and said, “It’s just a nominal title. It’s not worth mentioning, but you take it seriously and feel complacent. It’s ridiculous!” There was a fist-sized orange light floating above his head, which was rotating and emitting a whirlpool-like halo. It was extremely soft. Meng Qi’s feathers and swords burst out, but they gradually solidified and turned into ashes as if they had been shot into a whirlpool in the swamp.

The Feather Emperor was furious. He laughed and said, “You have to pay the price if you want to exterminate the Feather Clan!”

With his roar, the immortal light around his body surged wildly, and his immortal aura became chaotic. He chose to destroy himself along with Ding Hao. He turned into a flowing light and rushed toward Ding Hao.

The self-detonation of an Immortal was incomparably terrifying.

Its power was sufficient to destroy everything within tens of thousands of miles.

“Hahaha, we’ll just die.” Meng Qi also went crazy. He imitated the Feather Emperor and madly activated his immortal aura, rushing toward Ding Hao.

Both of them hated Ding Hao very much. If it weren’t for Ding Hao, the Feather Clan would have dominated this world long ago. How could they end up like this? Therefore, even if they had to die, they wanted to drag Ding Hao down with them.

Boom!

A beam of immortal light exploded when Meng Qi’s body first exploded. Terrifying chaotic rules of the Immortal Tao and power spread out like nuclear radiation.

“Seal!”

Ding Hao’s face changed slightly, and the Yin and Yang Pisces Diagram appeared behind him. The power of the golden saber and silver sword broke out, trying to seal this terrible power.

At the same time, Wen Duoqing, Golden Cicada, Pig Immortal, the Great Ape King, and the others also took action, trying their best to seal such power, lest the terrible power of the chaotic rules of the Immortal Tao leak out and destroy the vitality around them. Meng Qi and the Feather Emperor were indeed crazy to choose to self-detonate. The creatures of the Feather Clan were the first to suffer from the explosion. If Ding Hao and the others didn’t seal the power, more than half of the elites of the Feather Clan would probably die in such an explosion.

As the immortals took action, the power of the immortal rules permeated the air and finally sealed the terrible destructive power.

“Hmm? He actually escaped?” The Pig Immortal was stunned, and then he couldn’t help but laugh. “I thought the Feather Emperor really had the determination to die, yet it turns out that he betrayed Meng Qi and fled by himself under the cover of Meng Qi’s self-detonation!”

When everyone sealed Meng Qi’s power of self-detonation and looked at the scene, the Feather Emperor who had been impassioned had disappeared.

The Feather Emperor did not choose to self-detonate. Instead, he betrayed Meng Qi and took the opportunity to escape.

“Humph, although the world is big, there is no place for him to hide and he can’t escape,” the Great Ape King said coldly. He hated treacherous and cunning people like the Feather Emperor, who had destroyed other people’s opportunities to become immortal, and he was even so despicable.

“Amitabha… Eh? The aura of the Feather Emperor… is gone.” Golden Cicada chanted the scriptures, and his expression was slightly stunned because the aura of the Feather Emperor had really disappeared from this world. He searched the world with a Buddhist secret method, but there was no trace of the Feather Emperor within hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

The other Human Immortals used their secret techniques to search as well, their faces revealing looks of shock.

Ding Hao closed his eyes and thought for a while. He discovered something and said, “I’ve found him. Everyone, follow me.” As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a stream of flowing light and flew straight toward the divine hall of the Feather Clan.

Everyone’s face was full of surprise.

Ding Hao had not yet become immortal, but his means and magical powers were all above theirs.

The crowd turned into streams of light and followed closely behind.

What happened today was not a simple matter of dealing with the Feather Clan. Ding Hao found something more important, which was related to the Feather Clan. That was why he could ask the immortals to come to the Divine Capital of the Feather Clan together. In any case, he could not let go of the Feather Emperor.

In front of the divine hall, the masters of the Feather Clan were still resisting.

However, how could their strength compete with Ding Hao and the others?

With a gentle wave of his arm, Ding Hao sent the masters of the Feather Clan thousands of meters away with an overwhelming force. It was difficult for them to get any closer. As he took a step forward, the divine hall of the Feather Clan turned into ashes. The memorial tablets of the previous great emperors of the Feather Clan were placed inside. Behind the densely placed memorial tablets, a huge black coffin was levitating in the void. A black mist turned into an evil Divine Dragon, twining around the coffin like chains, making a heart-wrenching roar.

It was the dark power.

The expressions of all the experts in the Celestial Realm changed.

As expected, the Feather Clan had something to do with the dark power.

As the experts present entered the Celestial Realm, they became more and more powerful, and their comprehension and perception of heaven and earth would also increase sharply. They were powerful enough to feel the horror of the dark power between heaven and earth that was deeply hidden but ready to make trouble. Everyone had heard of the peerless master of the Immortal Period, so they naturally understood what such dark power meant.

The black coffin in front of them was floating up and down, which was extremely strange.

“The Feather Emperor has entered the coffin…” Ding Hao approached step by step and felt the aura of the Feather Emperor.

In fact, before the battle began, Ding Hao had planted a mark on the Feather Emperor with the secret method of Mind Essential. He knew very well that given the Feather Emperor’s cunning character, he would never fight to the death and would definitely escape.

The Mind Essential was unparalleled. Ding Hao had displayed it with his current strength, and even immortals could not detect it.

The closer the crowd got, the more terrifying they felt the black coffin was. There seemed to be something extremely ominous buried in it. Faint howls and roars of fierce ghosts could be heard. The lid of the coffin was slightly twisted, and a crack less than the width of a finger appeared. It made rapid bangs. It was as if something inside was struggling to escape.

The other immortals all had grave expressions.

It was because they could faintly sense an extremely dangerous aura from the black coffin. It was a sort of power capable of destroying immortals. Originally, they had thought that they would be able to become invincible and unkillable after reaching the Celestial Realm. However, it appeared that there was still a power capable of killing immortals in this world.

Everyone probed the coffin with their Divine Senses and felt that it was boundlessly dark and extremely vast. Obviously, it was a small world in the coffin.

Ding Hao thought for a moment and asked softly, “The Feather Emperor has entered the coffin. I guess he can’t control it with his strength, but he was willing to enter it. It should be safe inside. Would you like to explore with me?”

After the crowd weighed the pros and cons, no one raised any objections.

…

“It is indeed a small world, but the dark power here is terrifyingly dense!”

Pig Immortal spread out the immortal light around him to resist the dark power.

The others did the same.

Ding Hao was wrapped in the Yin and Yang Pisces Diagram and isolated himself from the dark power. The divine light of the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate burst out, tearing the darkness and observing the small world inside the black coffin.

“What…”

After walking less than a mile, everyone was shocked.

In front of them was an ancient battlefield with broken bricks and tiles all over the ground. Rusted swords, spears, and armor were broken. Of course, this was not the reason why they were shocked. What really shocked these immortals was that everything in front of them, whether it was broken bricks, broken tiles, weapons, or armor, had a mottled immortal aura flowing around them. Although this aura was extremely weak, at least it showed that the things here were really immortal goods from a long time ago.

And such broken sabers, swords, and debris were everywhere in that place.

“This… All the Immortal Artifacts and Immortal Goods have been damaged, and they seem to have undergone a terrifying battle. Could it be that this was the residence of immortals all those years ago?”

“Why was it destroyed? If this used to be a land of immortals, and there were countless immortals living here, how could it be so decadent? It seems that there was a war, but what kind of power could destroy so many immortals?”

...

“That’s an Immortal bone… Heavens, countless Immortal bones… Some immortals died and rotted away. Only the bones remained, and they contained faint Immortal Qi!”

Everyone felt their hearts palpitate.

Everything in front of them was quite scary. It seemed to be a place for the immortals’ corpses.

Everyone increased their speed. After walking several thousand miles, they became more and more alarmed.

Along the way, they saw collapsed divine halls, broken statues, towering abandoned altars, and endless city walls. There were countless immortal bones and skeletons with faint fluorescent light. Some of these things were from human beings and beasts. There were also many other strange bones. These immortals used to be alive, but they were all dead. These bones and skeletons were not completely preserved, and most of them were broken and scattered. Obviously, the immortals had experienced a tragic battle when they were alive and were all killed in battle. It was not that their corpses got destroyed after their death.

Everyone was a little numb.

They had thought that after becoming immortal, they would be the supreme beings of the world and look down on all living things. But they did not expect that there would be so many immortals buried in this small world of the black coffin. There were hundreds of thousands of bones in total, and these immortals had died in battle here.

“How could this be? Is this an immortals’ cemetery?” Wen Duoqing asked with a pale face.

Everyone was speechless.

Ding Hao looked dignified. Along the way, he saw many broken swords and sabers. Most of them had been corroded by the dark power and lost the power of spirituality, but a few of them were still in complete shapes and rusted, looking very similar to the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword. In particular, these weapons had exactly the same broken parts and rust as the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword, but unfortunately, they did not contain any power and had lost their effects.

“Could it be that the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword were actually taken to the outside world from here?” Ding Hao was secretly shocked.

...

Bright Moon Immortal had once said that the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword were the weapons of two of the supreme Eight True Immortals in the Immortal Period. Was this the place where the Eight True Immortals had died?

If that was the case, and the dark power here was so strong, did it mean that Hades True Immortal was very likely to be hiding here?

Ding Hao’s heart began to beat violently.
