It was quite unsightly to eat this fruit alone. This Ancestral Spirit Fruit was so precious that it was also useful to Azure Luan.
Azure Luan smiled and said, “I want you to take it. For my bloodline to grow to my current level, it’s no longer something that can be improve by consuming an Ancestral Spirit Fruit. It’s just like the growth of the Open Heaven Stage cultivator. The higher the grade, the more time it takes to accumulate. Now that the Sealing Demon Land has been opened, the Ancestral Spirit Force in the Ancestral Land will not be lacking, and it will longer be a problem for my cultivation. On the other hand, your bloodline has a lot of room for improvement, so the Ancestral Spirit Fruit will be of great use to you.”
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony. Many thanks, Senior!” Yang Kai happily put away the Ancestral Spirit Fruit.
Continuing forward, Yang Kai observed his surroundings, hoping to find more Ancestral Spirit Fruits, but even for this Ancestral Land that had been sealed for countless years, Ancestral Spirit Fruits were not common. Apart from the first fruit tree, there was nothing else.
However, as the two of them continued deeper, both Yang Kai and Azure Luan noticed something unusual. The Ancestral Spiritual Force here seemed to be drawn towards a certain direction by some unknown force.
When they first entered this Sealing Demon Land, these signs weren’t very obvious, so neither of them noticed them, but as they went deeper, the traces became more obvious.
The two of them were somewhat bewildered as they followed that direction.
After half an hour, Azure Luan and Yang Kai’s eyes couldn’t help narrowing as they saw a giant chain stretching out from the distance, disappearing into the void.
These chains were incredibly long and incredibly thick.
What was even more surprising was that this chain was not a physical object, but rather a manifestation of pure energy. The energy aura coming from this chain was extremely familiar to Azure Luan and Yang Kai.
The two of them quickly arrived at the end of the chain and silently examined it for a moment before Yang Kai’s expression changed, “Senior, is this chain formed from Ancestral Spiritual Force?”
Azure Luan nodded solemnly, “Yes!”
Yang Kai sucked in a breath of cold air. The Sealing Demon Land’s Ancestral Qi was already extremely rich, and compared to the outside Ancestral Land, it was like a cloud and mud. However, at this moment, a giant chain formed from the Ancestral Qi appeared before his eyes.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, neither Azure Luan nor Yang Kai would have believed it.
In ancient times, the Dragon and Phoenix Clans had split up the Ancestral Land and sealed the Sealing Demon Land. The Ancestral Spiritual Force here had transformed into chains. What kind of secrets were hidden here? What were these chains?
Azure Luan raised her eyes and looked towards the other end of the chain. Her eyes seemed to be able to pierce through space, but even with her eyesight, she couldn’t see what was on the other end. As far as her eyes could see, the other end of the chain was covered in a thick fog.
“Let’s go over and take a look!” Azure Luan said as she used her strength to wrap around Yang Kai before rushing over.
After more than two hours, the two of them arrived in front of a massive creature.
Standing in the air, staring blankly at the giant creature, both of them lost in thought.
This giant creature was shaped like a human, with its head resting between the Heavens and Earth, like a Divine Spirit. Around this giant creature, there were even giant chains that pierced through its body. The chains that Azure Luan and Yang Kai saw before were one of these chains that pierced through its chest.
There were sixteen such chains!
At this moment, there were already many Holy Spirits who had rushed to this place. Obviously, just like Azure Luan and Yang Kai, they had entered the Sealing Demon Land and found these chains.
Many Holy Spirits had already transformed into their true forms, thousands of zhang tall. In front of this giant creature, they were as small as ants! They were like flies and mosquitoes as they flew around this giant creature to investigate the situation.
“Giant Spiritual God?” Yang Kai muttered.
The giant thing in front of him was actually a Giant Spiritual God! It didn’t look much different from the Diant Spiritual God A' Da he had seen outside the Star Boundary. The only difference was that this Giant Spiritual God was as black as ink.
Yang Kai didn’t know the exact situation of the Giant Spiritual God, but the A’ Da he had seen wasn’t the same color, but he didn’t dare say that the Giant Spiritual God didn’t have such a race.
It was just that… in the heart of this Sealing Demon Land, there was actually a Giant Spiritual God sealed inside, truly shocking.
Yang Kai had interacted with Giant Spiritual God before and knew how tyrannical they were. Giant Spiritual God were one of the most powerful races in the world, and even Holy Spirits were rarely their opponents. Because they were powerful, their clansmen were extremely rare, but every Giant Spiritual God was an invincible existence.
Moreover, their temperaments were mild, and since ancient times, they had been feeding on the destroyed Universe World, never taking the initiative to provoke others. Even if an ordinary person provoked them, it would be nothing more than scratching an itch for them.
The confusion he felt when he saw the chains earlier was now resolved. The chains were actually sealing a Giant Spiritual God.
Yang Kai couldn’t imagine what had happened in this Ancestral Land in ancient times that had caused the Holy Spirit of the Ancestral Land to seal a Giant Spiritual God here!
This Giant Spiritual God was probably already dead. After all, so many years had passed, and even if the Giant Spiritual God was sealed here, it would be difficult for it to survive the corrosion of the Ancestral Land’s power. Yang Kai didn’t feel any vitality from it.
A figure flew over and called out to Azure Luan, “Big Sister!”
Azure Luan nodded and asked seriously, “How is the situation?”
“I came here an hour ago to investigate, but the life force of this Giant Spiritual God was already exterminated. However, for safety’s sake, we should examine it carefully. After all, if this thing is still alive, it would be a disaster for the Ancestral Land.”
“That should be the case,” Azure Luan nodded and turned her head as she spoke, only to see Kun Ao step forward and stand beside Azure Luan, saying in a low voice, “The situation in the Sealing Demon Land is quite unexpected.”
Azure Luan remained silent.
Kun Ao said, “Although I don’t know what happened in the ancient era, the Holy Spirit of the Ancestral Land and this Giant Spiritual God must have had an earth-shattering battle. In the end, the Ancestral Land was split into two and this place was sealed into the Sealing Demon Land, sealing this Giant Spiritual God here with the power of the Ancestral Land.”
“Tell me something useful,” Azure Luan said lightly.
Kun Ao grinned, “All of you were worried that breaking the seal would have some kind of adverse effect on the Ancestral Land, but it seems your worries were correct. The Sealing Demon Land has indeed sealed something incredible, but from the looks of it, it’s not a big deal. The life force of this Giant Spiritual God has been destroyed and it has been dead for countless years.”
“It’s best to be careful,” Azure Luan frowned slightly, “The Giant Spiritual God's vitality is tenacious, and no matter how many years pass, as long as there is still a chance of survival, it can revive. We don’t know why this Giant Spiritual God was sealed here.”
“Of course, it’s best to be careful. I plan to enter his body to investigate. Azure Luan, why don’t you accompany me?” Kun Ao suggested.
“Good.” Qingluan nodded readily.
The two of them didn’t hesitate and called out to Mie Meng, Taowu, Bi An, and the other Holy Spirits. Seven or eight of them flew up into the sky and entered the Giant Spiritual God's huge nostrils.
Many Holy Spirits waited silently.
Yang Kai stood beside Yue Zhuo and observed the Giant Spiritual God. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed as he looked towards the end of the chains.
The sixteen chains pierced through the Giant Spiritual God's body, but at the end of each chain, there seemed to be something that acted as the source, drawing upon the Ancestral Spirit Force of the Ancestral Land and transforming it into chains.
These things were like a transparent crystal palace, a burning tree, and a glittering pearl…
Yang Kai’s eyes stared at the transparent crystal-like palace, the depths of his bloodline resonating with it.
“That should be the Crystal Palace of the Dragon Clan,” Yue Zhuo explained.
“Crystal Palace!” Yang Kai raised his brow.
Yue Zhuo said, “There are many Holy Spirits living in the Ancestral Land, and according to the ancient records, each Holy Spirit races has its own Sacred Artifact. These Sacred Artifacts contain the inheritance of each race and are extremely helpful to the cultivation of each race’s people. However, after so many years, no one has seen any of our race’s Sacred Artifacts. We all thought that when the Dragon and Phoenix Clans left, they took all of these Sacred Artifacts with them, but who would have thought that they would be left here. It seems that the Sacred Artifacts that sealed this Giant Spiritual God in the Ancestral Land all contributed greatly. These Sacred Artifacts were left here to guide the Ancestral Qi of this place to seal this Giant Spiritual God.”
She pointed at the burning tree and said, “That should be my Phoenix Clan’s Indestructible Chinese Parasol Tree, and that should be the Golden Crow Clan’s Fusang Divine Tree…”
Towards these Sacred Artifacts that she had only heard of and never seen before, she explained them one by one.
Yang Kai silently noted this. The opening of the Sealing Demon Land this time could be said to be a series of accidents, but no matter what, being able to see so many legendary Sacred Artifacts was not a waste of his time.
A Sacred Artifact meant an inheritance. As long as a Sacred Artifact existed, so would an inheritance. Moreover, the Sealing Demon Land’s Ancestral Spiritual Force is so rich, the Holy Spirits in the Ancestral Land would no longer have to worry about the reproduction of the various races.
After a full three days, Azure Luan, Kun Ao, and the others reappeared.
“Big Sister, how is the situation?” Yue Zhuo led Yang Kai forward and asked.
Azure Luan said, “He should be dead. We didn’t sense any vitality from him.”
“Good!” Yue Zhuo took a deep breath. No one knew what kind of grievances this Giant Spiritual God had with the Holy Spirits, but since it was sealed here, there must have been some kind of conflict back then. If the Giant Spiritual God was still alive, breaking open the Sealing Demon Land was a mistake.
Fortunately, after countless years of suppression and the erosion of the Ancestral Qi, the Giant Spiritual God had lost all vitality.
“Azure Luan, I want to take away my Kun Clan’s Sacred Artifact, I don’t care about your Phoenix Clan’s matters,” Kun Ao suddenly turned to Azure Luan and said.
Azure Luan frowned and said, “Although this Giant Spiritual God is dead, these Sacred Artifacts are obviously the source of this suppressive force, so it would be inappropriate to take them away.”
Kun Ao sneered, “When we were about to open the Sealing Demon Land, you said the same thing. All the Sacred Artifacts of the various races are here, so if you want to obstruct us, ask them if they agree! If they agree, my Kun Clan will have nothing to say.”
