Chapter 582 Chapter 582 – Glimpse of Life Energy
It had to be said that Chen Heng was very stable. He had a certain amount of confidence in this trip to the ruins. After working with the Lord of Darkness and obtaining the gift from the Lord of Darkness, he naturally had more confidence.
With the mark of the Lord of Darkness in his hand, Chen Heng was confident that he could suppress the power hidden in the ruins without even using the power of the Saint Child clone.
After all, the existence in the ruins was at most a demiG.o.d, whereas the Lord of Darkness was a true G.o.d. Even if a true G.o.d only had part of his power, it was enough to suppress a demiG.o.d. Not to mention that the demiG.o.d in front of him was not at its peak, but only a corpse. That made him even more confident. Of course, having confidence was one thing, but facing it was another. Chen Heng slowly approached the coffin before him.
In this process, even with the protection of the Eye of Nature, he still suffered huge pressure. Although the demiG.o.d had not completely ascended, he still had reached the G.o.d level.
This kind of existence’s aura could only be withstood by existence at the G.o.d level. Any existence below the G.o.d level could not withstand this aura. It was the same even for a fallen demiG.o.d.
Chen Heng’s condition was better. After all, he had divinity and held the divine artifact, the Eye of Nature, so his resistance was very strong. If not for this, he would not have been able to reach this place.
The sound of light footsteps could be heard continuously. Holding the Eye of Nature in his hand, Chen Heng slowly moved forward and finally approached the coffin.
Previously, they did not feel it in the outside world. However, when they arrived at the coffin, they realized that the coffin was huge.
An ordinary coffin was only two to three meters long. However, no matter how they looked at it, this coffin was at least five to six meters long. It was huge.
The material used for the coffin also looked unusual. It was a unique kind of wood with inexplicable patterns on it. It was very mysterious and unique. Coming to the coffin’s edge, Chen Heng took a deep breath and then looked into the coffin.
Besides him, Orson and the other two were the same. They looked into the coffin, trying to see what was inside.
Under their gaze, the scene inside the coffin was displayed. Inside lay a very tall corpse. The corpse was in the shape of a human, but it was very tall compared to ordinary people. It was about five to six meters tall, like a small giant.
He had silver hair all over his body, and most of his body was shriveled up. There were still clear wounds on many parts of his body. The scene in the coffin was shocking.
Spots of crimson blood remained in the coffin and gathered there, bringing a dense divine aura that was shocking. It looked like the demiG.o.d sleeping in the coffin had long fallen in the past and died inside.
However, even so, there was still a domineering aura that swept through everything and suppressed every existence. That aura was natural, but it was as majestic as the stars. It wanted to terrify all living creatures and make them feel fear.
This was a true G.o.d, but unfortunately, he had already fallen.
“It’s the corpse of a demiG.o.d…” Looking at the scene in the coffin, Orson took a deep breath. It took him a while to recover. He was a little shocked. “I wonder what His Highness went through that year, so much so that even the body of a demiG.o.d was damaged.”
“From the looks of it, the injuries seem to be…”
Orith observed for a moment. Then he couldn’t help but look at Chen Heng. To be precise, he looked at the golden greatsword in Chen Heng’s hand. Many wounds on the demiG.o.d’s corpse matched the golden greatsword. It was very likely that the golden greatsword caused it.
The previous owner of the golden greatsword had probably fought with the demiG.o.d sleeping in the coffin. The two of them had fought bitterly. However, in the end, the golden greatsword ended up here. The previous owner of the coffin, the demiG.o.d who had once been a demiG.o.d, had also died and was lying there quietly.
An inexplicable feeling surfaced in their hearts. Standing on the spot, the three of them looked at the coffin in front of them. At this moment, all sorts of thoughts flashed through their minds.
The corpse of a demiG.o.d was a huge surprise to anyone. When one’s strength reached the demiG.o.d level, their blood could be used as a material for divine medicine. Their hair was as precious as divine metal and could be refined into a divine weapon. With the situation of the demiG.o.d in front of them, if he were to fall into the hands of a real G.o.d, he might be able to use this demiG.o.d’s corpse as a material to refine a real divine weapon. Thinking of this, Orson and Orith’s eyes couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ne. However, at the side, Chen Heng frowned and felt that something wasn’t right.
He felt a silent aura of death on the demiG.o.d’s corpse in front of him. But previously, in the outside world, he felt a life force coming from this place. It was very clear. And that life force didn’t come from this corpse.
Then what exactly was it?’
This thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind, and he continued to move forward. Following the feeling in his heart, he looked at the abdomen of the demiG.o.d’s corpse and carefully observed it.
Soon, he made a discovery. There seemed to be a small protrusion in that area.
‘Something was hidden in it, blocked by the corpse.’
Chen Heng’s heart moved, and this thought flashed through his mind. Then, he quickly moved. The golden demiG.o.d artifact was s.h.i.+ning, and at this moment, it emitted a faint light that enveloped the coffin.
At this moment, Chen Heng looked at the corpse inside the coffin cautiously. He held the Eye of Nature in one hand and added power to it. With the support of these two forces, he carefully moved the corpse in front of him. He moved it to the side for a moment, revealing the scene below.
A large golden egg immediately appeared, with a faint life force spread out. The life force was very weak. It was only flashes of life force, but Chen Heng accurately captured it.
“As expected.”
Feeling the flash of life force, Chen Heng understood and immediately understood. From its looks, the feeling he had felt before was not wrong.
The life force came from the giant egg in front of him, but it was very weak and was coincidentally blocked by the corpse at the side, so Chen Heng did not discover it at the first
moment.
It was not until Chen Heng moved the corpse away that the giant egg was revealed, and the life force spread out again.
However, Orson and Orith did not think so much. Compared to Chen Heng, they were much weaker in all aspects, so they did not feel the life force that flashed by.
It was not until Chen Heng’s action that they were shocked and found the giant golden egg.
“This is…”
Orson was the first to be stunned, and he was a little shocked. “Is this… the descendant of this demiG.o.d?”
The giant egg in front of him was extraordinary. There were mysterious and complicated patterns on its surface, but there was also a faint aura of divine power. It was related to a G.o.d. Since it could appear in this ruin and happen to be in this coffin, it was related to the owner of this ruin. It was most likely the direct descendant of this demiG.o.d or even a Divine Son.
A Divine Son of G.o.d who had inherited the bloodline of a demiG.o.d.
At the thought of this, both Orson and Orith were excited. The status of a Divine Son of G.o.d in the World of G.o.ds was no small matter. A Divine Son of G.o.d usually inherited the bloodline and talent of his father’s generation and was born to be above many mortals.
If the records were correct, the divine children of G.o.ds should naturally inherit divinity. There would be no accidents until the demiG.o.d level, and the journey would be smooth.
In other words, if there were no accidents, this existence in front of them was a future Legend or even a demiG.o.d.
A demiG.o.d. Thinking of this, Orson and Orith’s expressions became even more eager. They looked forward at the same time, wanting to observe.
After a short while, they were disappointed.
“The life aura has disappeared…”
Standing on the spot, Orson frowned. At this moment, his expression was extremely ugly. “This egg no longer has any life. Is it completely dead?”
“The origin has also solidified. It doesn’t have any fresh mobility…”
Beside him, Orith also spoke. At this moment, his expression was also somewhat ugly. It was clear that he had sensed the situation of this egg.
From what they could sense, the life force within the egg had already disappeared. It was close to dissipating. Even the origin had solidified. It no longer had any fresh mobility. Instead, it was deathly still.
This was not the result of a normal fresh life. It was very likely that this giant egg was already a dead egg from this situation. It didn’t have any hope of surviving.
“How could this be…”
Orson carefully observed it a few times and still got this result. He couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. “This is a Divine Son, and he died like this…”
“It’s also very normal…”
Besides him, Orith was also a little disappointed. However, at this moment, he still replied, “G.o.d knows how long this ruin has existed.
“Even if this is a divine son, so what?”
In this world, G.o.ds were known as immortal, but there were still many G.o.ds who died since ancient times. As for demiG.o.ds, that was even more so, who knew how many of them had died.
The life in the egg in front of him, although it was very likely to be a Divine Son, it had been trapped in this relic for an unknown number of years and still had not hatched. It was very likely that it had died here.
It was undoubtedly a pity that it had died before it was born, after displaying its power and talent as a Divine Son. But there was nothing they could do about it.
There were too many things in this world that made people helpless. They were already used to it.
Orson sighed, then, he turned his gaze to the demiG.o.d’s corpse. In his eyes, the tall corpse lay there quietly. There were even bits of vitality on it.
There was no doubt that this demiG.o.d was very powerful. Although he had been dead for G.o.d knows how many years, the life force on his body had not been completely cut off until now, his flesh and blood maintained a vigorous vitality. Even the aura on his body was so powerful.
If Orson and the other two did not have the protection of the Eye of Nature, even standing here would be a problem. They would be directly crushed without a doubt.
“Your Majesty, use the Eye of Nature.”
Standing on the spot, Orson looked at Chen Heng and couldn’t help but say. Chen Heng nodded and then began to move. In his hand, the green Eye of Nature shone again. The light was exceptionally bright and made people feel very comfortable as if it was blooming with vitality again.
Under the s.h.i.+ne of this light, even the old man who was old would recover his vitality temporarily, as if he had returned to his youth. At this moment, Chen Heng activated the Eye of Nature in his hand and used its power to pull the demiG.o.d’s corpse into the coffin in front of him, trying to seal it into the Eye of Nature.
If he didn’t do this, there was no way to get rid of the demiG.o.d’s corpse. There was still the aura and killing intent of a former demiG.o.d left on the corpse. It would be fine if it weren’t disturbed at this moment, but if it were, it would immediately erupt with terrifying power. At that time, the entire desert would face a disaster.
A green light bloomed and covered the demiG.o.d’s corpse. Mysterious patterns sparkled all over the sky. This was the vast power of Upanishad in the Eye of Nature. It appeared and bloomed. Under the watchful eyes of Orson and Orith, the light of the Eye of Nature completely covered the coffin and put the tall demiG.o.d’s corpse away, leaving no trace behind.
Boom!
Faintly, there seemed to be a tremor that shook the entire area, making people terrified. In Chen Heng’s hand, the jade-green Eye of Nature trembled slightly. After a while, it calmed down and returned to its original appearance.
At this time, Orson and the other two heaved a sigh of relief.
“We succeeded.” Orson first heaved a sigh of relief. Then his face revealed a look of joy.
“Not bad.”
A smile appeared on Chen Heng’s face as he looked around. “Although this demiG.o.d chose this ruin to bury himself, there are many good things in it.
“You can look around. Maybe you can find something.”
He looked at Orson and Orith in front of him and said with a smile, “It’s rare for us to come here. How can we not get something?”
“Let’s go look for it. Maybe we can find something good.”
He said with a smile. If it were anyone else who came to this place, they would probably want to eat all the good things in this area and not leave any for others.
But it was unnecessary for Chen Heng. He was not a pauper. On the contrary, he was extremely rich because he controlled several worlds.
Things like demiG.o.d artifacts and even demiG.o.d’s corpses were fine, but there was no need to fight with his subordinates for those other things. He had lost a lot of them for nothing.
In this ruin, the rest were not worth Chen Heng’s attention, other than a few things. Even the river of elements formed by the water of elements was not worth mentioning.
Rather than eating alone, it was better to let others benefit too. Otherwise, why would others follow you?
In front of them, listening to Chen Heng’s words, Orson and Orith immediately smiled.
With the huge temptation in front of them, they did not decline anything. They just nodded and went to explore the surroundings.
There were many good things hidden in this ruin.
Compared to Chen Heng, the two of them were penniless. No matter what they found, they would still make money. Naturally, they left excitedly.
Chen Heng was the only one left.
Standing alone in front of the coffin, Chen Heng looked at the huge golden egg in the coffin.
Under his gaze, the huge golden egg seemed to have a faint light s.h.i.+ning on it. The patterns on it were quite unique. It seemed to have the power of law branded on it. It was very special.
“Most of its vitality has been extinged, but there’s still a bit of immortality left…”
Looking at the giant golden egg in front of him, this thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind.
Perhaps because it had been too long, the life force on the giant egg had indeed completely disappeared. It was no different from a dead egg.
This kind of situation was completely dead to any mortal life. There was no hope of hatching.
But this giant egg was different.
This giant egg originated from a demiG.o.d. It was the son of a demiG.o.d and could be considered a divine son. Naturally, it was tainted with a trace of the immortality of a demiG.o.d.
In other words, it was divinity.
There was divinity in this giant egg. Although it was weak, it did exist.
It was this divinity that ensured the existence of this giant egg, allowing it to still have the possibility of hatching.
But it could be imagined that this would be very difficult.
“If I use divine power to nourish it, there might be a possibility of hatching it in the future…”
Standing where he was, Chen Heng felt the divine fluctuations in the giant egg before him, and then this thought flashed through his mind.
The divinity within the giant egg still existed and had not been completely peeled off.
This ensured that there was still hope for the giant egg to survive. If it was nourished with divine power, there might still be a day when it hatched.
Chen Heng had already decided to go back and try it out. A living divine son was always worth more than a dead divine son.
And divine power, which was extremely precious to others, was nothing to Chen Heng. He didn’t feel any heartache at all when he tried it out.
Chen Heng solemnly put away the giant golden egg and sent it to the divine son’s avatar as he thought about this. He used the divine power of the divine son’s avatar to nourish it.
Then, Chen Heng turned around and thought about exploring the area.
The most valuable items in this ruin should be the demiG.o.d artifact and the demiG.o.d’s corpse. As for the giant egg, although its value was also very high, it was still quite lacking compared to the first two. As for other things, their value was even lower.
However, there was no lack of good things. Chen Heng looked around and found some complicated and unique runes. They contained a unique power and should have been left behind by the demiG.o.d from back then. They had a very good reference value.
Like that, another half a day had pa.s.sed before Chen Heng brought the two of them back to the surface. At this point, this trip could come to an end.
After all, the ruins had been found, and Chen Heng had plundered the valuable things inside.
‘It’s time to go back.’
Chen Heng turned around and looked in the direction he had come from. This thought silently flashed through his mind.
