Chapter 327

The path that the two of them took to escape with Zi Chen wasn't the original path, but another path.

The stone chamber was very large, like a maze.

There was a chill in the air that made Zi Chen feel very uncomfortable. Furthermore, there was a sense of danger everywhere.

"Where are we going?"

Zi Chen asked. In his hand, he held the purple-gold calabash that shone resplendently and emitted a strange fluctuation.

"There's a teleportation array outside Master's burial ground. We'll leave from there," said Lv Peng.

"Butcher's burial ground. He's really dead."

Zi Chen was alarmed. He had always thought that this was a ruin that Butcher had left behind to leave behind his legacy.

After all, according to legend, Butcher was extremely powerful and was the number one person in the southern region. How could such a person die?

"Who in this world can avoid death? Even if one is peerless, in the end, they are just a pile of skeletons. Master's lifespan was up, but he didn't defy the heavens."

When Butcher was mentioned, other than reverence, the two of them didn't have any other expressions. This was because the two of them knew very little about Butcher. They didn't even know what realm he was at.

As the few of them advanced, Zi Chen felt the chill grow stronger. His hair stood on end as he sensed the dangerous aura of death.

"These are the treasures Master left behind? They don't look like much." Lv Peng turned his head and asked. He was very relaxed, as though he had long gotten used to the chill in the air.

"There are a total of three. This is the worst. The other two are very strong, even more terrifying than alchemy weapons. A group of Sect Masters are fighting over them."

Zi Chen said. He wasn't disappointed that he didn't obtain the strongest treasure. Instead, he was glad. If he had really taken those two items, he would definitely have died.

When the two of them heard this, they gasped and shook their heads. They felt that it was a pity that such treasures had brushed past them.

However, the two of them were still in a good mood. They were very satisfied with obtaining the legacy because this was the true treasure. Back then, Butcher had used an array formation to kill many experts. With his combat skills, he had destroyed a Heaven realm expert. The two of them were very confident.

"Are you sure there's no problem?"

The coldness in Zi Chen's heart intensified as he couldn't help but shiver. At that moment, his Perfect Body felt a stabbing pain. It was as though a sharp blade was glaring at him from the side, ready to slice at any moment. The coldness was oppressive.

"Don't worry, we've been here for years. There's no problem at all. You're just not used to it."

The two of them were very relaxed.

Zi Chen saw Butcher's burial ground from afar. It was a pitch-black ancient castle made of unknown materials. Misty Qi flowed around it like sharp blades, wreaking havoc in the air, forming an inescapable net without any openings.

Every single strand of qi was like a strand of sword qi, able to tear apart the void. Their power was terrifying. At this moment, they were densely packed, no less than several hundred to several tens of thousands of strands surrounding the ancient castle.

The killing intent here overflowed into the heavens. It was like a great ominous land, making people feel reverence and not dare to approach.

"That's a fully activated Ten Directional Nirvana Formation. Once one steps into it, death is certain. The only way to break it open is with great force. Aside from that, there's no other way to break it."

Zi Chen was shocked when he heard this. Such a large formation was second only to ancient formations. Who could break it with great force? Even a grandmaster level expert wouldn't be able to do so with great force even if they had two powerful weapons.

"Rumble."

Heaven and earth trembled, and the entire burial ground trembled. The battle between grandmasters was too terrifying. This side of the world was about to collapse.

However, Zi Chen found that the ancient castle seemed to be outside of the void. No matter how the world trembled, it didn't move at all. It was as if it was fixed in place.

"The inheritance and treasures are gone. The burial ground's formation will operate on its own. The ancient castle will enter the depths of the earth. Let's go now. I haven't been out for a few years, and I've forgotten what the outside air smells like."

The three of them came to a stone room. There was a complicated formation engraved in the stone room. As Lv Peng released a strand of energy, the formation lit up and flickered with brilliant light.

This was a teleportation formation, a high-end formation that was difficult for ordinary people to set up. Even Elder Mo couldn't do it.

"Let's go."

Lv Peng took the lead and stepped on the formation. The formation circulated and surrounded Lv Peng. In the next moment, Lv Peng's figure disappeared.

"Why did you keep holding it in your hand?"

Before leaving, Zhang Haotian finally asked the question in his heart. He had been looking at it repeatedly before, but was too embarrassed to ask.

Zi Chen smiled bitterly. Holding the Purple Gold Gourd, he shrugged and said, "It's very special. I can't put it in a spatial ring."

"Swish."

Light flickered, and the two's figures were enveloped by the formation. Then, they disappeared.

Stepping into the transmission array again, Zi Chen still had a strange feeling. It was as if he had entered the void and traveled for an eternity. When he reappeared in the next moment, the three of them were already outside the ruins, standing in the huge square.

"Phew, finally out."

Lv Peng let out a long breath. After being here for several years, he finally came out today.

The sky was blue, clear, and sunny. Even the air seemed to have a trace of sweetness. Lv Peng felt very comfortable.

Zhang Haotian also let out a long breath. He stretched his arms and gave the sky a hug. But in the next moment, his figure froze.

Lv Peng was also dumbfounded.

Looking around, Zi Chen was also stunned. Surprise and vigilance appeared in his eyes. He tightened his grip on the Purple Gold Gourd.

The crowd was densely packed. There were at least a few hundred people, and all of them were looking at them.

They were the cultivators who had entered the ruins before. Because of the Ancestor level battle, they were forced to escape.

But they didn't expect that as soon as they appeared, they would see three people appear out of thin air in the center of the square. Many people's eyes were glowing with a green light, like hungry wolves that had seen a delicious meal.

The three were surrounded.

"What's going on?" Looking at those green eyes, the three of them trembled. They had no idea what was going on.

That was especially true of Zi Chen. Those green eyes were all looking at the Purple Gold Gourd in his hand. That naked greed was not concealed at all.

"Zi Chen, you're Zi Chen!" Just at this moment, startled cries rang out. Someone recognized Zi Chen.

"Yes, it's him. He's Zi Chen. I saw him in Cangli City back then."

"Didn't he leave the southern region with Su Long to join the Martial Heaven Alliance? Why is he here?"

At this moment, even more people let out startled cries. They clearly recognized Zi Chen.

"What's that in his hand? A precious treasure?"

"Why are they here? Could it be that they were the first to enter the ruins and obtained the inheritance and precious treasure?"

Discussions rang out. Everyone's gazes toward the three of them became unfriendly. Their greed was not concealed at all.

"Zi Chen, it's you. You're Ah Luo, right?" Suddenly, a voice filled with dense killing intent rang out. It was Geng Le.

Geng Le had always been brooding over what had happened back then. He had always felt that Ah Luo was very familiar, but he couldn't remember him. Now that he saw Zi Chen, he came to a sudden realization.

"What do you think?" Zi Chen turned and gave Geng Le a strange smile.

"It's you. Damnit, I should have guessed." Killing intent flashed in Geng Le's eyes, and his eighth Heavenstage aura surged out.

"It's actually you."

At the same time, Chu Lie and the others also walked out. Cold light flashed in their eyes, and killing intent surged out of them.

"Haha, so you're all here. What, didn't I beat you into submission back then?" sneered Zi Chen. The Purple Gold Gourd in his hand was dazzling, drawing everyone's attention.

"What are you doing? Are you ganging up on us?" Just at this moment, Miao Kong stepped forward, blocking Geng Le.

"Are you comparing numbers?"

Liu Bo also appeared. His eyes were filled with ridicule, and a strong aura surged around his body as he stood side by side with Miao Kong.

"Sigh, every time you appear, you cause such a huge commotion."

Wang Shan was dragged out unwillingly by Wang Xian 'er. He said unhappily, "What's wrong with you all? Can you be more shameless? You get slapped in the face every time, and you still want to find trouble. Even if you don't find it embarrassing, I find it annoying."

Naturally, Wang Shan would not find it annoying to see others getting slapped in the face. However, when he saw Zi Chen in the limelight, he felt extremely displeased.

"What did you say?" Chu Lie's expression was unfriendly. The cold Qi around him intensified, and the already low temperature in the air dropped even further.

"He said that you all are very annoying, always finding trouble for no reason," Wang Xian 'er said. She was very protective of Zi Chen, every time.

"You knew his identity long ago. No wonder your family helped him that day." Geng Le gritted his teeth so hard that they cracked. He was so angry that he couldn't take it.

"What?! Ah Luo is Zi Chen?!"

"No wonder he can fight against five alone. It turns out that he is Zi Chen, that Heavenstage cultivator."

Everyone exclaimed. All the inconceivable things were attributed to a Heavenstage cultivator.

Rumble …!

The great tremors continued in the Ancient Remnant. The entire Ancient Remnant trembled. Clearly, the outcome of the Sovereign Level battle had not been decided yet.

Furthermore, the appearance of the demonic geniuses formed a hostile faction. This caused the people in the air beside them to show unfriendly expressions.

The experts of the clans were fighting in the Ancient Remnant, not holding back at all. Furthermore, there was no need to exercise restraint here. Aside from the neutral factions, all the people in the air were eyeing each other covetously.

"Zi Chen." Ah Tian had already walked over and stood beside Zi Chen.

"Move aside. This is a grudge between me and Zi Chen," Geng Le said coldly. "Pfft.

"Bah, don't flatter yourself. We didn't block your path at all. If you have a grudge, go and settle it yourself." Wang Shan's words were not polite at all. Indeed, they didn't block Geng Le. They only blocked the others.

"You!" Geng Le was so angry that he could not say anything.

"All of you, move aside. See if I don't kill Zi Chen today," Chu Lie said coldly.

"Very well. Go and fight one-on-one," Wang Shan said disdainfully, curling his lips.

Chu Lie was also unable to say a single word.

"Zi Chen, come out if you have the ability. Don't stand behind a woman. What kind of ability is that?" Geng Le roared. He purposely ignored Wang Shan and the others and said that he stood behind Wang Xian 'er.

"That's right. You are a Heavenstage cultivator. Why don't you have any sense of shame?" The other demonic geniuses snorted with sarcasm.
