Chapter 1094

Zi Chen had stepped into the Heavenly Realm. Whether what he had encountered before was his mischievous thoughts or fate, in Zi Chen's view, there was no point in continuing to delve into it.

What he had seen before could be the regret in Zi Chen's heart. In order to make up for his regret, Zi Chen was comforting himself, deceiving himself, atoning for his sins, or perhaps it was fate. He had to let Zi Chen see this to resolve the regret in his heart.

Whether it was the former or the latter, in short, his goal had been achieved. After the test, Zi Chen's heart was calm and settled.

And at the moment of calmness, he had also finished the seemingly long Stairway to Heaven, which actually only had 44 steps.

He climbed the last Stairway to Heaven and entered the Heavenly Realm. Looking at the scene in front of him, it was as if he had entered another world.

The air was filled with a refreshing fragrance, and the crisp sound of birds echoed in his ears. Some unknown flowers on the ground were blooming like hundreds of flowers, competing in beauty. Some unknown small beasts were jumping and playing among the flowers.

The birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and the birds and beasts were not startled. It was like a paradise, a paradise on earth. If one insisted on calling it the Heavenly Realm, it would not be an exaggeration.

The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was rich and pure. It was a rare holy land for cultivation.

Releasing his perception and looking around, Zi Chen felt extremely comfortable.

Suddenly, a sound came from behind him. It was a demon who had climbed the Stairway to Heaven. He saw Zi Chen from afar and naturally recognized this powerful human existence. His face changed slightly, and he immediately took a detour and flew forward.

Humans and demons could not coexist. This demon was not sure if the powerful human would lower himself to kill him in this situation. The sound of breaking air rang out, startling the small beasts in the wild. The strong wind broke the flowers and grass, and the demon turned into a black light and flew away.

Suddenly, a roar came from the horizon, and a huge monster appeared in his line of sight.

It was an unknown beast, exuding a vast aura. It suddenly appeared in the air and attacked the demon.

The claws were sharp and cold, like divine weapons. The powerful force shook the space, tore through the void, and landed on the demon. Then, there was a loud bang, and the demon's body exploded. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, dyeing the flowers red.

Seeing that the Demon had already reacted but was still blown up by a single blow, Zi Chen was obviously surprised. There was still some distance between the two sides, but under the perception of his perfect spiritual sense, Zi Chen found that there was a strange aura on the giant beast.

With a tap of his foot, Zi Chen stepped onto the open space in the middle of the flowers. His figure flashed forward like a bolt of lightning. His target was clear — he was heading straight for the giant creature.

Zi Chen had never seen anything like this before. Its body was like an oversized silkworm cocoon, and its back was covered with silvery-white barbs. Four claws grew out of its lower body, which were very uncoordinated. It also had a short tail, and a head that was not very big compared to its body. All of these things combined to form a strange looking giant beast.

In addition to its strange appearance, the giant beast's aura was also very strange. It was not pure elemental energy, nor was it spiritual sense. It was a familiar yet strange aura.

Zi Chen stood a hundred meters away from the giant beast, watching its cold and bloodthirsty eyes fall on him. Perhaps because it felt too much pressure, the giant beast did not immediately attack.

One man and one beast looked at each other from a hundred meters away, but neither made a move.

On the side, the demon's exploded body destroyed a patch of flowers, clearly showing the strength of this beast.

As they looked at each other, the atmosphere gradually became oppressive. Zi Chen's expression did not change much, but the aura on his body made the giant beast feel very uncomfortable and extremely dangerous.

At this moment, it could feel that its escape route was completely blocked, and there was a great danger approaching. However, the giant beast did not run away, because in its memory, there was no such thing as running away.

The two stared at each other for a full ten breaths. During these ten breaths, the giant beast felt more and more pressure. If it did not attack now, it was afraid that it would not be able to attack again.

As a result, the giant beast's killing intent rose, and it attacked Zi Chen.

It was the same attack as before. The sharp claw was exactly the same as when it had killed the demon, but the power of this attack was thirty percent weaker than before.

It was the same attack, but thirty percent weaker. Zi Chen was puzzled. He wondered if the pressure he gave the giant beast was not strong enough. Was the giant beast looking down on him?

But then, he saw great fear in the giant beast's eyes. This fear was not directed at Zi Chen, but at himself. Suddenly, the giant beast's attack was thirty percent weaker.

Peng.

Zi Chen punched out and easily blocked the attack. At the same time, he pushed back the giant beast.

The giant beast that was knocked back roared and charged towards Zi Chen once again. It could be seen that the fear in its eyes had turned into madness. Obviously, the next attack should be even more terrifying.

However, the power of this attack was still not as strong as when it had killed the demon.

Zi Chen punched out again and repelled the giant beast for the second time. Although he didn't know why the giant beast's combat power had suddenly decreased, he had completely lost interest in it because its combat power was too weak for Zi Chen to pay attention to.

In the sky above the Heavenly Realm, the Demon Lord and the others stood there, looking down at the world.

"Venerable, why are the attacks of these giant beasts different in strength?" Looking at the different attacks of the same giant beast, the prince asked in confusion.

A cold smile appeared on the Demon Lord's face. He said, "These are some little tricks that the ancient race played in the past. They created these Heavenly Beasts for training. When they see an ancient race member, their combat power will be reduced by thirty percent. On the contrary, if they see a non-ancient race member, their combat power will be restored to normal."

There was a look of surprise on the prince's face. However, he did not understand. He asked, "But, since it's a training, what's the point of having their powers reduced by thirty percent? Shouldn't it be better for the target of the training to be stronger?"

This question had the Demon Lord deep in thought. After a moment, he said, "You don't understand. I don't understand either. The existence of these Heavenly Beasts is extraordinary. They all have an Inner Core within their bodies. This Inner Core is where their essence resides. It is also a key material for humans to create Spirit Weapons. I guess that is the true purpose of the training."

"What?" The prince's face changed immediately. "The Inner Core of the Heavenly Beasts can be used to create Spirit Weapons."

Just then, an ancient race member had just killed a Heavenly Beast. From the corpse of the Heavenly Beast, he dug out a glowing Inner Core. Within the Inner Core, there was a shadow of a Heavenly Beast. Clearly, it was a type of soul.

The ancient race member kept the Inner Core and continued deeper.

"Indeed, this is a key material for creating Spirit Weapons. Demon Lord, what's the point of us waiting here? We should just go down and kill the Heavenly Beasts." The prince's face was filled with excitement.

The Demon Lord looked at the prince with a look of disdain, "What's the hurry? These people are all going to die eventually. The Heavenly Beasts that they kill are naturally ours. Rather than killing them one by one, why don't we just kill them later?"

Pausing for a moment, the Demon Lord continued, "Furthermore, there are Overseers in this place. It's not easy for us to escape from their detection. If we appear out of nowhere, we will definitely attract trouble. The most important thing right now is to recover our strength."

The moment he finished speaking, the two Demon Lords led the two of them forward in the void. Along the way, they bumped into quite a number of humans and Heavenly Beasts. Looking at them, the prince felt an itch in his heart. However, as a prince, he naturally knew that it was better to snatch than to kill. Therefore, he suppressed the urge to go down and kill the Heavenly Beasts.

Just as the four of them disappeared, a person appeared where they were standing just a moment ago. It was a young man. It was the Overseer.

Looking in the direction where the four of them had left, a smile appeared on his face. It was a smile that was filled with evil intentions, and a little creepy.

"Puff."

When Zi Chen struck out with his fifth attack, the Giant Beast in front of him was no match for him. It was killed by Zi Chen. After killing the Giant Beast, Zi Chen intended to leave. However, he suddenly felt a wave of Soul Power coming from the Giant Beast's body.

Zi Chen furrowed his brows. Using one of his fingers as a sword, he slashed at the Giant Beast in front of him. The Giant Beast's body was cut open, and a beautiful light burst out from within. The Soul Power that he had sensed earlier became clearer.

"This is a Soul Fragment."

Zi Chen found a fist-sized Monster Core in the Giant Beast's body. He saw a Soul Fragment within the Monster Core.

Zi Chen had seen many Thunder Spirit Crystalline Souls, and he had even seen Moon Spirit Crystalline Souls. At a glance, he could tell that this was a Soul Fragment. The difference between a Human-grade Weapon and a Soul Weapon was that it lacked a Soul Fragment.

After looking at the Monster Core for a long time, Zi Chen was sure that the Monster Core in his hand could be used to forge a Soul Weapon.

At that time, the strongest weapon that could exist in the world was undoubtedly a Soul Weapon. Once a Human-grade Warrior had a Soul Weapon, his combat power would be much stronger than a Human-grade Warrior.

In the Wuji Sect, which had a lot of resources, Human-grade Warriors were already common, and every Human-grade Warrior had one. However, there were only twenty or so Soul Weapons.

Now that he saw that the Monster Core in the Giant Beast could be used to forge a Soul Weapon, Zi Chen's eyes lit up. This thing was useless to him, but it was very useful to the Wuji Sect. Therefore, Zi Chen had to get more of it.

"Kill."

Putting away the Monster Core, Zi Chen's eyes were filled with killing intent. He flapped his Thunder Wings and began to search for Giant Beasts to kill.

Just as he had guessed before, there would be an Inner Elixir in every giant beast that he killed. Every Inner Elixir represented a Spirit Weapon.

Even Zi Chen had joined the slaughter army. From this, it could be seen how serious the slaughter in this world was.

Just like in the Human-grade Realm, no matter if it was a human or a Heavenly Beast, the blood that flowed out would naturally disappear and be absorbed by the underground formation. Then, it would be absorbed by the two Demon Sovereigns.

The two Demon Sovereigns had recovered from their injuries, but they were not satisfied. They wanted to become stronger. They had mastered some of the rules in this world, so naturally, they had ways to not be controlled by the rules. Therefore, they needed to increase their combat power to the peak.

Then, they would kill everyone here, take control of this place, and become the master of the Saint Burial Ground.

It had to be said that this was a crazy and bold idea.
