At the edge of the sky, ten thousand armies crossed the void. An supreme being emerged, slaying countless gods with a single word.
Before their astonished eyes, a streak of green grass descended from the heavens, shattering mountains of immeasurable height. The force of myriad thunderbolts challenged their current understanding.
Suddenly, Monk Hu Yan Zan and his disciple felt a chill. They hastily turned back, only to see the sea of blood they had left far behind reappear. Scarlet shadows emerged from it, their cold eyes fixed upon the ten thousand armies!
At one moment, the myriad blood shadows and the thunderous army collided, erupting in resplendent divine light that shook the firmament.
Then, a colossal hand pressed down, tearing continents apart. The gods who once stood on high were like ants, cowering in a corner of this terrifying battle, at the mercy of their conquerors!
Divine fire scattered, and countless living beings bled into the void!
Blood rain poured down, the blood of gods, inundating the earth. The onslaught of the blood rain soaked through ten thousand feet of soil, unable to penetrate further.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a supreme being appeared in the sky. With a crackle, nine heavens and ten thousand divine thunders were refined and descended upon the world, accompanied by a spiritual energy storm that veiled humanity. The entire land trembled in fear, stars fell, and all things were submerged. High and mighty gods were blasted from the battlefield!
"Be careful!"
A colossal god plummeted towards them. Hu Yan Zan roared. Among these behemoths, only a few thousand were discernible to the two. The vast majority were unfathomably deep, their divine senses like abysses.
But the descending being passed through their bodies as if they were air, crashing onto the ground and splashing divine blood!
"The gods have fallen, the twilight of the end!"
Hu Yan Zan watched this terrifying scene. Continents of unknown expanse, under the hands of supreme beings, silently crumbled like grains of sand!
Hu Yan Zan then recalled the illusory world they had entered. The dissipating blood shadows stared at the White Tiger divine beast residing within his armor, roaring as if it had lost its senses.
"What are you talking about?"
Disciple Shang muttered incessantly, coupled with the terrifying divine battle in the heavens.
"This is an ancient battlefield!"
"That day, above the sea of blood, we entered that illusory world. I heard the blood shadow's words. I fear this floating coffin in the blood sea and this ancient battlefield have an inseparable connection. Supreme beings, yet a single immortal grass possessed the power to destroy worlds. Even powerful gods could only turn to dust."
Hu Yan Zan's expression flickered as he watched the gradually dissipating anomaly, then surveyed the slowly recovering world.
"Are we still going?"
Disciple Shang looked towards the endless horizon. The further they ventured, the more terrifying it became. They had traveled for days, covering thousands of miles, yet they didn't know where they were within the blood sea and floating coffins.
The scenes before them were increasingly captured by their divine senses. Anomalies appeared frequently, but they saw not a single cultivation resource or precious medicine.
"Continue!"
Hu Yan Zan took a deep breath, his gaze unwavering. With an imperial destiny, he could not retreat!
Several hours later, colossal skeletons lay before them, ancient and weathered.
"What is this?"
Disciple Shang touched the bones, feeling a faint aura. Suddenly, a green light enveloped them, and a ten-thousand-zhang green dragon flowed out from between the bones, its roar mournful, reverberating through the sea of blood.
"A Green Dragon?"
Hu Yan Zan gazed at the scattered bones covering thousands of miles. What kind of battlefield was this, where even a peak Green Dragon could not survive!
"The gods have fallen!"
"What did they fight for?"
"It's too ancient, the dragon's might is long gone, and there are not many resources to excavate!"
With a slight exertion, Disciple Shang turned the colossal bone into dust, which scattered into the void.
Even the toughness of dragon bones could not withstand the erosion of this world!
They walked and stopped, continuing deeper. As soon as they left the place where the Green Dragon had fallen, the world changed. A vast expanse of white world. The light here was too blinding, stinging their eyes and forcing them to squint.
"Divine Corpse?"
Hu Yan Zan's eyes widened. A cold wind whistled, and corpses holding various weapons, some walking, some blocking, some advancing in all sorts of poses, remained.
"Far above even gods!"
Disciple Shang looked at the fallen beings. Even after countless ages, their powerful foundations left them in awe.
"Don't touch!"
Hu Yan Zan quickly stopped Disciple Shang, but it was too late. The corpse Disciple Shang touched, like the dragon bones, turned to ash!
"The toughness of dragon bones, and the nourishment of divine essence, cannot withstand the engulfing river of time in this world!"
Looking at the scattered white dust in his hand, Disciple Shang suddenly felt as if this blood sea with floating coffins was a terrifying cage.
Adult peak Green Dragons, corpses of beings far above gods, were all ground to dust by this world, easily shattered!
They lingered here for an hour. They saw many precious treasures and medicinal pills, but could only observe from afar. Though the divine essence seemed to remain, it was merely the residual spiritual energy of this world, temporarily retaining its original divine light. Inside, it had long since turned to rotten wood, like the dragon bones and divine corpses.
"What a pity!"
Disciple Shang looked at the incredibly valuable pills. Each divine corpse here had a formidable foundation. The items they carried with them must have been precious. Unfortunately, no matter how precious, they were useless against this world where gods emerged and supreme beings traversed.
After walking for most of the day, they finally emerged from the vast white expanse. The divine light gradually returned to normal, and the spiritual energy in the void grew denser.
"How many days have we been walking?"
Disciple Shang looked ahead.
"About three to four days!"
Hu Yan Zan flicked a speck of dust from his armor. They were both at the Virtual God realm, possessing the strength of true gods. Three to four days of travel for them would likely cover more than tens of thousands of miles.
"Let's go!"
After a brief period of recuperation, the two set off again towards the depths. As they went further in, the world gradually darkened. The scenery was now similar to when countless beings had first entered the blood sea and floating coffins.
The world was dim, and deep crimson began to spread.
At one moment, as if the dark clouds above the nine heavens had dispersed, countless dazzling divine lights shone down, and the world once again entered a blood-red realm.
"Gurgle, gurgle~~"
"Whoosh, whoosh~~"
Blood began to seep from the ground beneath their feet, bubbling out rapidly. Within dozens of breaths, the blood had already reached a foot deep.
About ten feet in front of them, a blood spring erupted, several feet high. This blood spring was entirely different from the surrounding blood sea. Within the blood, wisps of black energy flowed, mingled with sparks of lightning!
