Discovering the ancestor fragment
“Why are there so many corpses?”
A demon asked in surprise.
To the Shen clan, everything could be devoured. Once they killed an enemy, they would refine and devour it. Generally, no corpses would be left behind.
“Yup! It’s a little strange!”
Feng jiujue agreed.
In the divine realm, corpses were very rare.
“There’s one possibility. These corpses are man-made.” Tang Hao said.
“Man-made? Senior, you mean …?”
The fifth Prince was shocked.
“My guess is that when the first ancestor’s flesh and blood fell, the first corpse was born by chance. It also devoured the first ancestor’s flesh and blood and became an ancestor realm existence. These corpses were created by it later on.”
Tang Hao said.
Even an ordinary fiendish corpse or Yin corpse would develop intelligence, let alone a corpse that had fused with and devoured the ancestor’s flesh and blood. Its intelligence must be extremely high.
Creating more corpses to strengthen the race was a natural choice.
“That’s very possible!”
The crowd muttered to themselves and nodded.
“So, the divine crystals are also on the first corpse?”
Feng jiujue said and tsked.
The first corpse was definitely at the ancestral realm. It was easier said than done to steal the divine crystal from it!
“It should be!”
Tang Hao nodded with a serious expression.
“The divine crystals … Have they been refined?” The fifth Prince suddenly said.
“That’s impossible!” Feng jiujue shook his head,”that’s just a corpse!”
Tang Hao’s expression changed.
Generally speaking, after a person’s soul was destroyed, the body that was left behind was called a corpse.
After a long period of time, or under some special circumstances, these corpses would undergo corpse transformation, turning into Yin corpses, fiend corpses, and then giving birth to new intelligence.
These spiritual intelligence were mostly incomplete and could not be called true human souls.
However, if one cultivated some special secret techniques, it was possible to repair the soul and become a real human soul. Then, one could possess a new body and become a real human.
If humans were like this, then the gods race would probably be similar.
After all, in terms of divine souls, the human and celestial races were similar.
Then, there was a possibility that the corpse could be reborn and turn back into a true God to devour the divine crystal.
However, this was only a possibility. At present, he couldn’t even find a trace of the corpse, so he couldn’t make a conclusion.
“Let’s keep looking!”
Light gushed out from the top of his head again, all of which were the split souls that he had cut off. They spread out in all directions with an earth-shattering momentum.
His main goal right now was to find the corpse and confirm if the divine crystal had been refined.
If it had already been refined, then there was no need to waste any more time.
Just like that, everyone continued to use their divine arts to search the underground world.
Occasionally, fiendish corpses would pass by, but they did not attract their attention due to the presence-concealing formation on the ship.
“I think I just saw something!”
A day later, Yun Tianlong from the Nirvana religion suddenly shouted with a look of joy.
He had many pets of all kinds. At this moment, one of the rats he had sent out had tunneled into the distance and sent back important information.
“Brother Yun, what did you see?”
The fifth Prince hurriedly asked.
“I saw a dilapidated Stone Hall in the distance. There seems to be … A nine-colored light inside!” Yun Tianlong said.
“Nine-colored?”
Everyone held their breath.
Could that be where the divine crystals were?
After all, apart from the ancestral divine crystal, they couldn’t think of anything else that could emit the nine-colored light.
“Are you sure?”
Tang Hao furrowed his brows.
“Senior, it’s impossible that I’m mistaken. My eyesight is very good!” Yun Tianlong said with a smile.
“How far away is it?”
Tang Hao asked.
“It’s quite far away. The purple Qi there is extremely dense and there are many fiend corpses. I think it should be the center of this place. That broken stone Hall is where the leader lives, or maybe it’s just where he keeps the divine crystals. ” Yun Tianlong said.
“It should be. Senior, should we go and try it?”
The fifth Prince said.
“No rush!”
Tang Hao shook his head.”If the leader is there, it’ll be hard for us to get the divine crystals if we just barge in like this. Why don’t we wait? if we can find them, there’s no reason that the sacred Spirit Prince and the others can ‘t.”
After a day of searching, he had also discovered many unfamiliar psyches.
It was obvious that there was another group of people in this underground world. Other than the Holy Spirit Prince’s group, he couldn’t think of any other possibilities.
“Good! Then I’ll keep an eye on it first!”
Yun Tianlong sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
“They … They seem to have noticed it too!”
On the other side of the ground, a half-ancestor of the Bai clan opened his eyes and said.
Through the many mosquitoes he had released, he could clearly see the dilapidated Stone Hall and also notice the unfamiliar Qi deep underground.
“They didn’t do anything?”
The Saint Prince frowned.
“I don’t think so.” The half-step ancestor shook his head.
“Woof! This old man is probably up to no good again. He wants us to go first so that they can catch the cicada while the Mantis stalks the Oriole behind. Hmph! No way!” The spiritking Prince snorted.
He had seen how cunning that old monster was, and he would not be fooled so easily.
“I think so too. They’re afraid of the ancestor realm corpse, so they don’t dare to act rashly. We’ll drag it out too and see who has more patience.”
The leading elder from the Bai clan said.
“Wait!”
He shouted and sat down cross-legged.
The spiritking Prince also closed his eyes.
“Hey! Are these guys trying to waste time with us? Still not moving!”
On the divine boat’s side, everyone waited and waited. After half a day, there was still no movement. They were all extremely puzzled.
“I’m guessing that they’ve also discovered our intentions,” the fifth Prince said with a smile.”They’re prepared to waste our time.”
“F * ck! This is so boring!”
Feng jiujue cursed.
“Since they want to waste time, then we’ll waste time with them!”
Tang Hao chuckled.
It did not matter to him how long he had to wait since he could accumulate God rule power as long as he could.
“Right, let’s waste time with them and see who can last longer!”
Feng jiujue mumbled to himself and sat down cross-legged, starting to meditate.
Just like that, another three to five days passed.
Neither side moved.
They were all waiting, waiting for the other party to make the first move.
“It moved, it moved!”
Two days later, Yun Tianlong suddenly shouted in excitement.
“The little Sacred Spirit and the others have moved?”
Everyone was overjoyed.
“No, it’s not them. It’s that Stone Hall. A light just shot out from inside and the aura was shocking. I think it’s the ancestor realm corpse. It left the stone Hall.”
Yun Tianlong said excitedly.
“Then … What about the fragment?”
The fifth Prince asked.
“He’s still there, in that Stone Hall!”
Yun Tianlong said.
“This is a good opportunity!”
Everyone was overjoyed.
“Senior, we can’t miss such a good opportunity!”
“Yup! If they get there first, we won’t be able to get the divine crystals. ”
They looked at Tang Hao and said excitedly.
“It has left the stone Hall?”
Tang Hao furrowed his brows. He was a little confused.
This was indeed a good opportunity, but this opportunity had come too suddenly!
