Chapter 495

The void broke open, and the demon ape appeared silently. He held the black stick high and smashed it down.

"Boom!"

The void was shattered, and there was a loud explosion. Only then did the senseless Inner Dan cultivator react. But before he could make an effective counterattack, there were more black lights on his body, like shackles. His movement was hindered, and the energy in his body receded like the tide.

Peng!

The black stick fell and smashed on the head of the Inner Dan cultivator. Endless energy poured into the body from the head, and the Inner Dan cultivator was blown up.

Recently, the demon ape had chewed a lot of Inner Dan candies. This kind of wasteful method, like a cow chewing on peonies, finally made his strength grow a little. His combat power became stronger, and when he suddenly attacked, the Inner Dan cultivators could not react.

A rain of blood and flesh fell from the sky, landing on the ground and making splashing sounds. The surroundings were dead silent. Everyone was shocked.

Three people, three attacks, and three Inner Dan cultivators were killed. Such an easy way of killing shocked everyone.

Those monsters who had a look of disdain before now had their mouths wide open. Their eyes were wide open, and the shock in their eyes did not fade for a long time.

Such a ruthless and decisive attack not only shocked Yu Kong, but also the many Dan Essence Realm cultivators.

Fear appeared in the eyes of even more people.

Those Inner Dan cultivators who were chasing after them stopped after the three were killed. Their eyes flashed with horror, but they did not move forward for a long time.

The powerful attack of the three had shocked everyone. No one dared to move.

It was only when they left with their spoils of war that the sound of people inhaling cold air could be heard. Only then did the crowd realize that they did not even dare to breathe loudly just now. As for Dan Yuan, who had previously threatened to kill Zi Chen and the monk, he realized that his clothes were unknowingly drenched in cold sweat.

The others who had regained their senses realized that they had been stunned just now. Immediately, they felt embarrassed. Among them, the Lu Family genius snorted coldly and said, "One relied on a defensive artifact, one launched a sneak attack from the dark, and one used some kind of sorcery. Even if he killed Dan Yuan instantly, it's nothing."

"They're all just a bunch of crooked methods. Indeed, they're nothing much. As long as we pay more attention when we fight, we'll be able to kill them," another freak said.

Even more people chose to remain silent because they were still in shock. Among them, there were many Primordial Core experts who sternly warned their sect members not to provoke the three of them once they entered the ancient battlefield.

In their hearts, these three people had long been linked to maleficent stars.

The two monstrous geniuses' unbridled comments did not receive much agreement. The two of them bitterly laughed and left with their clansmen. However, did they really not care? Looking at their pale faces and slightly trembling legs, it was clear that they did not care.

"What should we do now?"

After Zi Chen and Tyrant left, the rest of the crowd left as well. Only the two of them were left on the battlefield. Heifeng looked at Wild Wolf and asked.

The Wild Wolf had a complicated look on his face. After chasing Zhang Xuan for so long, Zhang Xuan's strength was clearly improving. On the other hand, they were still in the same spot.

The combat power that the three of them had displayed today was already a serious threat to the two of them. If the two of them continued to act recklessly and became greedy, they would definitely die.

"What does the entrance of the ancient battlefield look like? I haven't seen it before. Let's go and take a look," the Wild Wolf said, his voice filled with helplessness.

In a trance, he seemed to have seen himself back then. He was just a small Wild Wolf who was surrounded by many beasts and demonic beasts in the forest. He killed all the enemies along the way and got used to the law of the jungle. That was how he grew to where he was now. In the past, the Wild Wolf was also strong and arrogant. However, the current him was already in his twilight years.

Under Heifeng's gaze, the Wild Wolf sighed, "After looking at the ancient battlefield, let's return to the outer region."

In the outer region, they were big shots and famous existences. However, in the depths of the chaotic land, where Primordial Core experts were everywhere, the two of them were so miserable that they could not even afford to sit on the transportation formation.

At this point, the two of them had given up on the idea of killing others for their treasures. They had lost their fighting spirit and only wanted to return to the outer region.

Fifty thousand miles away, the experts of the five overlords had already gathered. There were more than a hundred Primordial Core experts guarding the four directions.

The surrounding hundred miles had become a forbidden zone. Everyone who had a token and was preparing to enter the ancient battlefield had to stay a hundred miles away.

Anyone who tried to enter the hundred miles radius would be killed without mercy.

"When the ancient battlefield opens, ancient beasts would rush out in the past. I wonder if there will be any this time."

"Ancient beasts are full of treasures. If I'm lucky enough to get a few drops of essence blood, I'll be satisfied."

"It's hard to say. Last time, all the major powers were prepared, but the ancient beasts did not appear."

Amidst the discussions of the crowd, Zi Chen found out that every time the ancient battlefield opened, there would be powerful ancient beasts charging out. The reason why the five overlords were guarding this place was to hunt and kill the ancient beasts.

"Boom!"

The sky suddenly trembled as killing intent filled the air. Many Primordial Core experts took out their Primordial Core weapons. Cold light emitted, dazzling the area.

More than a hundred Primordial Core Realm cultivators were surrounded by surging Primordial Qi. Boundless killing intent was released from their bodies. It could be seen that each and every one of them was an austere person.

Five silhouettes appeared in the horizon, and an even more powerful aura surged around them. They flew into the air and stood in the center of the hundred people.

"Those are late Primordial Core experts."

Exclamations rang out from below. Everyone's gazes became abnormally fervent.

The Primordial Core realm was the same as the Spirit Origin realm. It was divided into four stages: early, mid, late, peak, and Great Perfection.

However, the difference between the Primordial Core realm and the Spirit Origin realm was like heaven and earth. In the Bedlam Lands, there were many early Primordial Core experts. However, those who could successfully break through to mid Primordial Core were less than one in ten.

Due to the rules of the Bedlam Lands, there were many Primordial Core experts. However, only those who could reach mid Primordial Core could be considered true geniuses. Even the major powers would want to recruit them.

As for late Primordial Core experts, they were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns in the Bedlam Lands. Every late Primordial Core expert was a famous figure.

As for those above that, Great Perfection Primordial Core experts were even rarer. Those above the Primordial Core realm were rare in the entire Bedlam Lands. Perhaps only the overlord powers had them.

The appearance of the five late Primordial Core experts caused a huge commotion. The five stood in the air and sent out beams of energy into the air.

The five beams of energy struck a certain spot in the air, instantly causing a commotion. Following that, the sky started to shatter, and huge cracks appeared.

"Attack!"

After a loud shout, the hundred Primordial Core experts in the surroundings moved as well. The Elixir Weapons in their hands surged, and they instantly soared into the sky, turning into beams of cold light and shooting into the sky.

In an instant, holes appeared in the sky, like a sieve being pierced through. The cracks extended, and an even larger black hole appeared in the sky.

This black hole was one kilometer wide. Chaotic space surged within it, and destructive energy could be seen wreaking havoc within.

"What is this?"

Just as Zi Chen was trying to figure out what was going on, a crazy energy surged out of the black hole. The entire chaotic space started to tremble, as if something was about to charge out.

"Once the time limit of a thousand years is up, the ancient battlefield will automatically appear. However, it requires the correct coordinates. For chaotic space to appear, it seems the ancient battlefield has appeared once more."

An expert who had lived for over a thousand years said from the crowd. The other elders all nodded in agreement.

The five late Primordial Core experts clearly had joy on their faces. Light flashed from their bodies, and an item appeared. It was a simple and unadorned medallion. It looked like it had been carved from stone, and there were fine lines carved into it.

The stone medallion wasn't complete. Furthermore, there were cracks in it, as if it could shatter at any moment.

"This is a stone medallion. A thousand years ago, it looked like it was about to fall apart. A thousand years later, it's still like this," said an elder.

"Cheh, not to mention a thousand years, I heard that it was like this even ten thousand years ago."

The cracks in the stone medallion spread, as if it could shatter at any moment. However, it contained some kind of power. After the five experts threw it out, the surface of the stone medallion glowed, as if it was an ancient object that had been revived. The lines on it also started to glow.

After that, the five stone medallions flew into the sky, stabilizing the space. The huge black hole in the sky stopped recovering, and the chaotic space within the black hole also stopped moving. It instantly became quiet.

Looking at all this, Zi Chen's eyes were filled with shock. To be able to stabilize the space and stop the chaotic space, this stone medallion was definitely a rare treasure.

A pitch-black whirlpool appeared from the chaotic space. It then slowly expanded, forming a tunnel that extended downwards.

"It's open, it's open. The ancient battlefield has opened."

"The ancient battlefield that appears once every thousand years has opened again."

"I wonder who will be the real winner this time."

Seeing the pitch-black tunnel, the crowd exclaimed. However, more people were still staring at the tunnel.

This was because when the tunnel opened, ancient beasts would appear. These beasts were all treasures.

However, it was a pity that the ancient beasts did not appear even when the tunnel was formed.

"Is it gone?"

The crowd sighed. They were all extremely disappointed, especially the five late-stage Primal Core experts. They shook their heads in disappointment and turned to leave.

The ancient battlefield would close by itself every time. The stone medallions would only return when it closed. They could not take it away now.

Just as they were about to leave, something strange happened.

"Boom!"

The five stone medallions that stabilized the space suddenly trembled. The light around them dimmed for a moment. In the tunnel that had just stabilized, a powerful energy surged. This energy appeared from the black hole and extended downwards.

The five late-stage Primal Core experts were below. After feeling this energy, their expressions changed drastically, and they immediately dodged.

The pitch-black energy fell from the sky, directly landing on one of the late-stage Primal Core experts. At the critical moment, he could only take out his Elixir Weapon and activate the energy in his body to resist.

However, when the black energy landed on him, the Primal Core expert and his Elixir Weapon disappeared bit by bit, directly turning into dust.

"Boom!"
