Kante of the Dark Devil Clan, Corpse Chief of the Corpse Clan, the patriarch of the Ghost Mark Clan, and the creature of the Dark Clan with the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame were the strongest four existences of the Grace Mainland. Right now, they all were present in this desolate area.
They had chased after the Demon Clan to this place despite the formidable explosion. Each of them had suffered different levels of damage. This time, they came here to ask the Demon Clan to pay a big price.
As Bao Ao and Jie Ji saw these four, they were astounded. They didn’t expect that those people were so stubborn. They knew they had no chance to overturn the situation once the First Demon Area was opened, but they still got here, which was beyond the Demon Clan’s estimation.
"Why do you need to do that?" Bao Ao frowned, but he seemed not worried at all. "Strong warriors of our Demon Clan are all here. Jie Ji and I can stop Kante and Corpse Chief. Zenith, you haven’t restored your power yet. You can’t recover the part you consumed. It’s just a dream if you guys want to kill our Demon Clan. Don’t make both sides bear damages. n.o.body can gain anything in the end then."
Bao Ao’s words weren’t meant to threaten them.
Jie Ji’s and Bao Ao’s power was intimidating, which wasn’t less than Kante’s and Corpse Chief’s. They could even gain the upper hand.
That creature of the Dark Clan hadn’t had a body yet. It just depended on so many Yin spirits and wandering ghosts, so it wasn’t enough to kill Bao Ao and Jie Ji.
Bao Ao and Jie Ji were afraid of Zenith of the Ghost Mark Clan the most. Anyway, Zenith hadn’t had recovered fully yet. Facing many hotshots and beasts of the Demon Clan, he couldn’t gain the upper hand.
As the heaven and earth energy on the Grace Mainland was about to run out, if Zenith continued to consume his energy, his recovery would be much more difficult. If he didn’t have the competence of the King G.o.d Realm, using his body’s power to escape this continent would result in his death.
Thus, if they wanted to fight until both sides got damaged severely, it wouldn"t benefit anyone.
Kante and Corpse Chief quieted down. However, they were still hostile towards Bao Ao and Jie Ji. Their eyes didn’t show the emotions that humans should have, only the cold murderous intention.
A faint laughter came from the Yin Written Charm Scripture. "Bao Ao, is it the holy land in your hearts which could solve the matters of your sorrows and your clan’s future? This is just a desolate area without a beam of energy. The seven Demogorgon statues are all damaged. Do you really think that it’s still your hope?"
Bao Ao pointed at the door the Blood Vein Ring had generated from s.h.i.+ Yan’s Immortal Demon Blood while smiling. "We still have hope."
s.h.i.+ Yan stood there, hesitating as he was pondering if he wanted to get in there or not.
He didn’t know where that door would lead them to, but it was the solution the Blood Vein Ring had given him. This exit was created by the energy of the seven Demogorgon statues stimulated by his Immortal Demon Blood. s.h.i.+ Yan wasn’t so sure whether it was an effective solution or not.
Kante and Corpse Chief looked at the door, their eyes brighter.
"Where does it lead to?" Zenith had seen the door from the Yin Written Charm Scripture. Hearing Bao Ao mention the door, he seized the chance and asked.
"Ghosts know," Bao Ao beamed a forced smile. "But I think it should be a solution. What do you think about getting in there and exploring instead of spending time quarreling here?"
Kante and Corpse Chief kept silent. That gloomy halo didn’t say anything, either. Zenith also kept his mouth shut, as if he were considering Bao Ao’s suggestion.
While standing in front of that door, s.h.i.+ Yan had constantly checked the energy fluctuation from the seven Demogorgon statues. Gradually, he found that the magical beam of energy maintaining that small door was getting weaker from over time.
He sensed for a while and his face paled. He said quickly, "This door can’t be maintained for a long time. It will disappear due to lack of energy."
Pausing for a while, s.h.i.+ Yan suddenly shouted. "I don’t care if you want to get in there or not, I gotta go now."
Then, his body flashed like a dark light, disappearing into that small door.
At the moment he disappeared, a shaking energy wave transmitted to the door, and the halo the seven Demogorgon statues were projecting got weakened by a little bit.
Everybody observed carefully. Seeing that change, they were startled as they suddenly got it.
After one person walked through the door, the energy that maintained the door would weaken by a little bit. In other words, the energy supplied to this door wasn’t enough to let many people get through the door.
After each entry, the energy would reduce. Once this energy was drained, the door would disappear.
No one knew what stood behind that door. However, since this place was the First Demon Area, and that door was created by the last beam of energy from the top seven Demogorgon statues, of course, it wasn’t just a normal door.
As the Grace Mainland has come to the end of its energy cycle, all clans understood this situation, and were trying to find the way out for their clans, to seek a chance to survive.
Perhaps, behind the door was a solution, or maybe it was perilous. But at least they knew they had a possibility.
Bao Ao and Jie Ji were a bit hesitant. They exchanged looks, then dashed towards the door.
They disappeared into the door after s.h.i.+ Yan.
The energy supporting that door got weakened the second time. If it continued this way, the door would disappear not long afterward.
Bo Ruo and Gu Da Si exchanged looks, then harshly stormed forward, turning into two beams of light and disappearing.
Corpse Chief and Kanta kept silent for seconds and then shot out. Right at the moment they started to move, the Yin Written Charm Scripture and the dim halo also flew towards that door.
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh Swoos.h.!.+
Four light silhouettes disappeared.
Crack Crack Crack!
Shattering sounds echoed from the seven Demogorgon statues as they started to crack into smaller pieces rumblingly. At this moment, as their energy had been used up, that door was dispelled.
Many members of the Demon Clan were dumbstruck on their mounts.
Many of Jie Ji"s subordinates stormed to the door, but they couldn"t find anything. They were all grim, as regret rose in their hearts.
It was a vast s.p.a.ce with many meteorolites hovering in the dark, starry sky. Those ma.s.sive meteorolites suspended in the void motionlessly.
Each meteorolite was as big as an entire island in the Grace Mainland. They were bare and smooth, without a single gra.s.s. Those meteorolites had many shapes. Some were connected with each other, but most of them were separated, hovering still in the void.
They couldn’t see the end of this s.p.a.ce, in which uncountable meteorolites floated still.
s.h.i.+ Yan stood on one of the meteorolites, which wasn’t small or big. His face was grimaced and darkened, as he was urging powers to cover his body.
A fire flower sparkled out of s.h.i.+ Yan’s body. The scorching flame slowly arose, keeping his body comfortable.
The meteorolite under his feet was dark brown and rigid. There was no heaven and earth aura, or air. This place was several times colder than the Cold Bitter Land.
When s.h.i.+ Yan appeared here, his body was stiffened, as if even his blood was frozen. His energy oozed, struggling slowly inside his body.
Breathing was just a routine of warriors at his realm. It wasn’t an essential condition to survive. The energy in their bodies was the root to protect their perpetual lives.
Shortage of air wasn’t important, and low gravity wasn’t a matter. The most horrible thing was that this place didn’t have any heaven and earth energy. This place was cold with radiation and unknown dangers.
There were dozens of giant meteorolites above his head, under his feet, in front of him, and behind him; meteorolites were everywhere.
The nearest meteorolite was around one thousand miles away from him. In this dark s.p.a.ce, energy tornados seemed to hide everywhere. Such kind of energy could even shake his soul.
This place looked like a meteorolite sea. Countless meteorolites were scattered disorderedly and chaotically, seeming to hide tremendous dangers.
In front of s.h.i.+ Yan’s eyes, he often saw explosions in the farthest place naked eyes could see. The shockwaves of those explosions transmitted from unknown distance, and created formidable impacts that were like ferocious aura attacking people, cracking their hearts.
Under his feet was a formation built of hundreds of giant bones. That formation was obviously broken, as s.h.i.+ Yan could see many broken bones. There was no energy moving anymore.
Those bones, which still had energy, s.h.i.+mmered faintly. Not long afterward, Bao Ao, Jie Ji, Bo Ruo, Gu Da Si, and Kante appeared one after another.
Until Corpse Chief, the last one who emerged from the bone formation, arrived, the bones that still had energy shattered immediately. They exploded, leaving only dust.
Under the energy impact, all bones turned into dust. In this weightless environment, bone dust was like sand grains scattering into the immense darkness.
Bao Ao and Jie Ji appeared one by one. They immediately urged their power to protect their bodies from the bitter cold, and created the power armor to avoid the unknown radiation.
Kante and Corpse Chief weren’t an exception. Zenith, who was hiding in the Yin Written Charm Scripture, seemed to mobilize his energy too. An immense, gray mist engulfed the Yin Written Charm Scripture, just like a cloak, covering the scripture. However, the gloomy halo wasn’t affected. No energy wave rippled from it.
After eight people from the First Demon Area arrived, they hadn’t said anything yet as they were quietly observing the situation, dumbstruck.
There was no heaven and earth energy to be supplied. Dangers were waiting everywhere, and they needed to use energy to protect their bodies continually in this cold, dark, vast area, where energy tornados were hiding everywhere.
This place was much more dangerous than the First Demon Area. Everything in their sight was perilously dangerous.
"I think... we’ve escaped the Grace Mainland," s.h.i.+ Yan said after being frightened for a while. "This is the foreign land you’ve mentioned. However, our fortune seems not good, as we couldn’t find the place with abundant heaven and earth energy. Perhaps, this is where we bury our bodies."
Everybody fell into silence.
