After the crowd saw this shocking sight, they couldn’t come back to their senses even after a long time.
At first, they assumed that a large number of dead people were buried in the castle, and they didn’t expect that the giant castle was an Asura Hell-like ancient battlefield. It was no wonder that the many regions of the castle suffered heavy damage, and it was no wonder that a large number of Dead Souls and Spirits were present in it.
“Your lordship! Those giant beasts possessed at least an apex High-Level Deity’s power during their lives, and if they had also turned into Dead Spirits, then...” When the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra saw the giant dragon whose length reached several thousand meters and the terrifying Giant Demonic Wolf, its face turned pale.
It had detected intense Energy Ripples in those corpses and sensed a bloodthirsty and berserk aura. When it faced this destructive aura and faced a High-Level Divine Beast’s aura, even a divine beast like Hydra that was at the peak of the Mid-Level Deity Stage shivered with fear.
“Your lordship! Shouldn’t we, shouldn’t we retreat promptly?” The Corpse Wizard King’s face was pale, and his right hand that held the Death Horn was shivering. “If we disturb those terrifying Dead Souls, we will probably...”
The skeletons on the battlefield were too colossal and terrifying. Even the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra that possessed power at the peak of the Mid-Level Deity Stage was restless, let alone the Corpse Wizard King, beauty Sala, and the other. Even though just corpses were left here, ordinary people still weren’t able to withstand a High-Level Divine Beast’s aura.
“We have killed so many Dead Spirits, and we have surely disturbed the Dead Spirits and Souls on the battlefield. But, since those High-Level Divine Beasts didn’t show themselves, it’s obvious that they had died thoroughly,” Yang Ling spoke as he proceeded onward decisively.
Those giant beasts’ corpses emitted intense Energy Ripples, but Yang Ling, who was a Great Soul Wizard, didn’t detect conscious Soul Ripples, and the air was filled with a large number of Void Souls. This meant that those giant beasts died thoroughly!
As Yang Ling stood on the battlefield and observed with his senses the intense Energy Ripples, the voice calling him turned more distinct. He was confused by this, and he ventured carefully step by step into the depths of the battlefield.
“Giant Ice Dragon, a Giant Ice Dragon at the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage.” When the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra passed by a giant dragon’s corpse, it found its sight unbelievable and stopped in its tracks.
A Giant Ice Dragon at the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage was a lofty being even in the Magical Beast Plane. Its Ice Magic could instantly seal ten thousand miles and turn a great sea into an ice cube, while its giant claws could tear the space membrane and make spatial crevices. It could also create great spatial turbulence that would tear its enemies to shreds.
This was really unexpected! This terrifying High-Level Divine Beast ended up dying unknowingly in this land.
The Giant Ice Dragon was quite colossal, and its body length reached 3000 meters. It was bigger than the Nine-Headed Python King at the peak of the Mid-Level Deity Stage, but what baffled the crowd was that its corpse was in good condition, and just a deep and long crack was on its skull. The cut was quite smooth!
“This is a wound made by a blade, and it’s a single deadly blade strike.” Hydra had a rich experience, and it managed to find several fragments of a Godhead in the vicinity quickly. “Your lordship! If I didn’t guess wrong, this Giant Ice Dragon’s Godhead should have been shattered by a single blade strike, and this was why it lost its life.”
Could it be that a single blade strike would be enough to kill a Giant Ice Dragon at the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage?
The crowd turned pale with fright. They couldn’t even imagine such terrifying power. As they observed the several-thousand-meter-long Giant Ice Dragon, they managed to detect the terrifying energy contained in its corpse, and as they looked at the Godhead’s fragments in the hands of Hydra, they shook his head. They found this unbelievable!
Who possessed such terrifying power?
Yang Ling was quite shocked, and he started guessing the identity of the expert able to kill the Giant Ice Dragon. He got more curious about the mysterious ancient battlefield, and he also became more puzzled. He couldn’t understand why such an unfathomable giant castle was in the seabed, and he couldn’t understand what significant incidents occurred in the castle in the past.
“It’s a pity that its Godhead had already been shattered.” As Hydra observed the Godhead’s fragments in its hand, it shook its head. It found this a pity!
Hydra had trained strenuously for several hundred thousand years, and just a little was left for it to evolve into a High-Level Divine Beast. If it could find a Giant Ice Dragon’s intact Godhead, it wouldn’t manage to evolve smoothly in a short while. But, it was a pity that it had found just several fragments.
“The Godheads are shattered, and the souls have dissipated. But, those corpses still contain a large amount of energy, and they are harder than obsidian. We shouldn’t let this opportunity slip by,” as Yang Ling spoke, he moved the Giant Ice Dragon’s corpse into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension before he continued proceeding onward.
The battlefield was filled with corpses, and most of them belonged to ordinary people or small Magical Beasts. The giant Magical Beast’s ratio isn’t high, but the battlefield was too large, and those giant Magical Beasts’ number was surely not low. After the crowd walked for a short distance, they ran into a giant as big as a mountain, and just the sole of his feet was as big as a Giant Ape.
“A Titan! Oh my God, it’s unexpectedly a High-Level Titan from the Order Plane,” after the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra observed the corpse carefully to identify it, it cried out in an alarm again.
A Giant Ice Dragon at the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage was already incredulous, and they didn’t expect that they would run into a High-Level Titan that was more terrifying.
Titans were the Order Plane’s experts, and they possessed inborn Low-Level Deity’s power. After they would train for thousands upon thousands of years, their power would be beyond people’s imagination, and it was rumored that one High-Level Titan could deal with a group of Twelve-Winged Angels, and he could also fight alone a demon from the Death Plane.
They didn’t expect that this terrifying powerhouse died here!
He lost his life due to a single strike like the Giant Ice Dragon, and his Godhead was shattered by a single blade strike.
Could it be that this was the Graveyard of Gods and Devils in the legends?
After the crowd understood the giant’s status, their faces turned pale, and they swallowed their saliva with great difficulty. If those terrifying beings woke up suddenly, they wouldn’t manage to deal with even a single one, and even if they faced one together, they wouldn’t be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
Yang Ling forced himself to keep his calm and collected the Titan’s corpse before he led the crowd onward. He followed the voice, summoning voice, and ventured deeper into the battlefield. In the way, he saw Soul Devouring Demon Wolves, Armoured Berserk Dragon, Six-Eyed Lion with scarlet fur, and other High-Level Divine Beasts. He had even run into several great demons holding sickles in their hands.
They had all lost their lives due to a single blade strike, and there wasn’t a single exception to this.
As the crowd ventured onward, their bodies turned heavier. The wave of pressure and aura emanating from those lofty beings let the Corpse Wizard King, beauty Sala, and others shiver with fear, and it was difficult for them to move forward. If Yang Ling didn’t walk decisively with large strides, the crowd would have retreated long ago.
After they collected around 100 corpses of High-Level Magical Beasts, the crowd led by Yang Ling reached the depths of the battlefield, and they reached a spacious region of several miles that didn’t have a single corpse. A husky man in black armor was lying at the center of this region, and half of his head was cut off, while his left leg’s calf disappeared, and a black battle blade was stuck in his chest.
After innumerable years passed, just a skeleton was left out of the Giant Ice Dragon and the High-Level Titan, but the husky man in black armor seemed like he just sustained an injury and laid on the ground a short while ago. His facial features were distinct, and his face was still rosy, while his body emitted intense Energy Ripples that formed a giant Energy Whirlwind in the air that gave rise to fluctuating Energy Tide on the battlefield.
A formless wave of pressure emanated from the husky man in black armor, and it engulfed the whole battlefield. The closer one to the man, the stronger the wave of pressure, and even though several miles were between them, the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra shivered with fear, and it felt a suffocating wave of pressure. As for the Giant Ape, Beauty Sala and others, they had groaned softly before they retreated quickly with their faces pale as if they sustained formless attacks by just standing there.
What kind of person is this?
When Yang Ling detected the berserk energy that engulfed the land, he was shocked. He couldn’t even imagine the terrifying fighting prowess of the husky man in black armor during his life. This was the sole expert on the whole battlefield that didn’t lose his life due to a single strike, and his body sustained many serious injuries. Just this point alone demonstrated that the power of the husky man in black armor surpassed greatly the Giant Ice Dragon and High-Level Titan that possessed power at the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage.
It was really unimaginable what kind of terrifying being this was!
After Yang Ling hesitated for a moment, he instructed the crowd to stay in their place before he bore the formless wave of pressure and proceeded onward step by step. After Yang Ling stood next to the spacious region, he quickly ascertained that the voice summoning him came from the battle blade nailing the husky man in black armor, and he got an amiable feeling about this blade that summoned him and asked him to walk toward it step by step.
The blade length was one meter and more, and it was wholly black. It was unknown from which materials it was made, and it shone in a black luster, while it still devoured ceaselessly the energy emanating from the husky man in black armor. The blade emitted a great murderous aura and faint black radiance that engulfed the husky man in black armor and suppressed the boundless wave of pressure emanating from the man.
“Battle Soul!”
After Yang Ling walked closer to the blade, he managed to see through the faint blade radiance, and he discovered that two bold and flamboyant ancient words were carved on the battle blade’s hilt, and it was the same writing style found on the steles.
Buzz!
The black Battle Soul Blade might have detected Yang Ling’s arrival, and this was why it let out a clear cry and started shivering as if it were sentient.
“Battle Soul, this is Battle Soul of the Ancient Great Wizard Eternal Victory.”
When Yang Ling saw the sentient Battle Soul Blade, he got excited, and he became surer that the mysterious castle was related to the ancient wizards he sought. The Godhead’s inheritance let him having an amiable feeling about the Battle Blade that emitted great murderous aura as if it was a part of his body and the intense Wizard Power’s ripples emanating from the blades stirred up his emotions.
In the past, he had tried even heavy and sharp giant axes, as well as long sharp swords, yet he still didn’t find a Wizard Weapon that suited him, and he either used the Blood Elf Dagger to mount a sneak-attack at a close distance or used his fists to smash enemies’ bodies.
But now, it was a different case for the Battle Soul Blade in front of him.
He managed to discern with a single glance that this blade was able to kill men with a single strike, and it was a peerless battle blade that had slaughtered innumerable High-Level Divine Beasts. This was like a weapon made especially for a Great Soul Wizard like him.
