Chapter 1414: Do Not Laugh

The eight great forbidden lands all had their own mysteries. There was no way to decide which one was the most dangerous.

However, if one had to pick out the one with the most history, it was undoubtedly the Savage Battlefield.

During the Ancient Era, the age when the Martial Dao was at its peak, this place had already been a land famous for fortuitous encounters. There were the graves of Immortals, Immortal Sect Remnants, Distant Ancient Era Divine Mountains, all sorts of mutated beasts, and King Spirit Veins.

This place had always been considered a holy land for cultivators. However, during the most glorious age of the Martial Dao, the Hundred Race War took place here.

They fought until the Deep Abyss Demonic World also participated. This huge battle eventually resulted in a calamity that triggered the decline of the Martial Dao.

Even the Azure Emperor, the strongest ten thousand years ago, was only the strongest in the Post Ancient Era. During the peak of the Martial Dao, Martial Emperors filled the place like clouds, and Martial Sages crowded the streets. The Azure Emperor would not have even been considered among the strongest.

That huge battle also transformed the Martial Dao holy land into a savage desolate land. The geography of the place changed completely until it became one of the eight great forbidden lands.

This place was rife with danger and countless forbidden lands.

However, no matter what, this place still abounded with fortuitous encounters. It was just much more dangerous than it was during the Ancient Era. The corpses of Martial Emperors of various races lay here, drained of their Emperor's blood. The baleful aura of the Demon Monarchs was already changing the geography, making this holy land an ominous land.

Now, during the golden age of the Post Ancient Era, a storm stirred up here once again, drawing all the outstanding talents to this place.

Where would this lead the Kunlun Realm this time? Was it glory or further decline? No one knew.

When Xiao Chen was still a Martial Monarch, he had gone to the Savage Battlefield with his first senior sister and the other fellow disciples. At that time, he was rather weak and could only wander around the periphery. Furthermore, he had to be very careful. There were so many places in the vast Savage Battlefield that he did not even dare to look at.

Now, Xiao Chen silently entered the Savage Battlefield and toured the places he had been to before. His strength now compared to the past was like heaven and earth. However, he was even more careful and cautious.

The higher one stood, the more respect one had for this world.

Xiao Chen was here to look for Bai Wuxue. If it was possible, he did not want to get embroiled in the fight for the Demon Sword. That was a great chaotic battle. Once he entered it, extricating himself would be hard.

The vast Savage Battlefield had countless areas with complicated environments—desolate plains, swamps, hills, deserts, forests, and many more. Everything that existed was there. Finding Bai Wuxue would not be easy. If Xiao Chen did not have a good plan, it would be like searching for a needle in the ocean.

However, Xiao Chen was not afraid of such a search. What he feared was that he would not even have a chance to search. He hoped that Bai Wuxue was still alive.

Inside the war chariot, Xiao Chen looked at the map. The place he wanted to go to was the Dragon Burial Mound.

Now, the people of the Winged Demon Royal Hall, the Blood Demon Royal Hall, and the Fire Demon Royal Hall should be there. They probably wished they could shave off the top of that place to find the bones of that Demon Monarch.

Xiao Chen had gone to the Dragon Burial Mound before. He recalled that this place was very special. If you went to search for a dragon grave, you would not be able to find it.

One would have the opportunity to enter a dragon grave only after it appeared on its own. At that time, Xiao Chen did not know the reason behind this strangeness. Based on today, he concluded that it had to have something to do with the Demon Monarch corpse from ten thousand years ago. Or more precisely, it might have something to do with that Demon Sword.

Tens of thousands of dragon graves appearing at the same time was clearly out of the ordinary. It was easy to understand why the Demons were using this opportunity to try to obtain the Demon Sword.

Xiao Chen intended to force out the location of Bai Wuxue from the mouths of these Demons. At the very least, he needed to know whether Bai Wuxue was alive or not.

The black Cycle War Chariot moved extremely fast. As it flew in the air, it passed by several chariots, warships, and groups of cultivators from the Kunlun Realm's various races.

However, the cultivations of these people were not very high. The various powerful outstanding talents from the distant lands probably had not arrived yet, only some of the cultivators who were already in the Tianwu Domain.

Xiao Chen's war chariot did not stand out from them. He even saw several war chariots purposely decorated in a similar fashion to the Cycle War Chariot, making him unsure whether to laugh or cry.

After fifteen minutes, he arrived at the Dragon Burial Mound. He peered through the curtains and stared in shock.

Originally, the Dragon Burial Mound was hidden under boundless mountains. Now, all the mountains had crumbled. The boundless mountain ranges were gone, turned into an endless expanse of rubble covering the ground.

Amid the rocky ground, many True Dragon graves lay exposed in great numbers, a flabbergasting sight.

Every dragon grave was accompanied with dragon-shaped energy above them, which pierced through the clouds as if they were alive.

The strange thing was that these Dragon Qi were all black. Dragon Qi was originally something auspicious. However, it looked very sinister here.

When he surveyed the place, the positions of the various dragon graves in this boundless rocky land seemed to follow a certain pattern.

Adding in the Dragon Qi in the sky, Xiao Chen vaguely sensed that the scene before him resembled a certain extreme geomancy situation.

However, due to the boundless rocky land being too vast and the flabbergasting number of dragon graves, Xiao Chen could not see it clearly to verify his guess.

When the cultivators of the Tianwu Domain reached the edge of the Dragon Burial Mound, they gathered at a mountain, not daring to go deeper.

At the border of the Dragon Burial Mound was a stone monument surrounded by the corpses of many human cultivators impaled on sharp stones from the mountains.

A careful look would discover that they were all elites of the Water Moon Alliance. They had died in extremely sorry states, a fearful sight.

Four bloody words were written on the stone monument: "All who enter will die!"

When looking at the many corpses, the Tianwu Domain cultivators gritted their teeth in hate, but no one dared to charge in.

Some of the people here were either friends or relatives of the deceased. Their eyes turned red, and they wanted to charge in heedless of their safety. However, their companions did their best to hold them back.

"The people of the Water Moon Alliance died very miserably. I heard that the Water Moon Alliance was originally here to surround and kill the Blood Demon Royal Hall. Who could have imagined that the Winged Demon Royal Hall and Fire Demon Royal Hall would suddenly appear and surround them instead, trapping them?"

"Before this happened, those Demons purposely spread false information, spending more than a month to lay a trap. They even sacrificed some Demon Martial Emperors. If not, Bai Wuxue would not have fallen for their tricks."

"How hateful! Even though our Tianwu Domain is so huge, no one actually stood out to lead in such a major matter."

"After joining the Deity Dao Union, the Holy Scions now blindly follow Di Wuque. Di Wuque will not say anything about this or make an appearance. Shui Lingling is in closed-door cultivation. An Junxi is wandering the Starry Heavens. There really is no one left in the Tianwu Domain!"

"If only the Azure Dragon King were still around, these Demons would not get to be so arrogant!"

"Don't mention that person. Now is no longer the Azure Dragon King's time. It has been a long time since he jumped off his Emperor's Road. Even now, we do not know if he is still alive or not."

Xiao Chen heard the discussions of the various cultivators from the war chariot and gained a rough understanding of the situation.

Not far from the stone monument, four Demons stood on a rock. Their eyes gleamed with mockery as they gazed at the Tianwu Domain's cultivators.

Of the four Demons, two were from the Blood Demon Royal Hall, one was from the Winged Demon Royal Hall, and one from the Fire Demon Royal Hall. They were all royal clan disciples and had a purple mark on their foreheads.

It was the presence of these four people guarding this place that prevented hundreds of Tianwu Domain cultivators from going any farther despite some of them being Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors. This was truly ironic. This was the Kunlun Realm, the territory of the humans, yet the Demons seemed to have become the master.

If so many cultivators charged over together, no matter how powerful these four Demons were, the Demons could not kill them all and would have no way to defend themselves.

However, the reality was such. Everyone feared death, and no one dared to make a move.

"Boom!"

Feeling bored, one of the Blood Demon Royal Hall disciples on the rock pointed casually. The corpse of a human cultivator on a sharp rock exploded, turning into a rain of blood; it was extremely cruel.

"Haha! Qin Yun, unexpectedly, you have such a hobby. They are dead already, but you still want to blow up their corpses. However, your method is rather crude. Watch and learn!"

The Demon wearing flaming robes from the Fire Demon Royal Hall laughed loudly, and with a snap of his fingers, a human corpse burst into flames and burned to ashes.

"That is nothing. Watch this!"

The blue-clad Demon from the Winged Demon Royal Hall became interested. He stretched out his hand, and countless wind blades descended, slicing a corpse into tens of thousands of pieces.

"Bastards! I'll fight it out with you!"

In the crowd of humans, a Tianwu Domain cultivator bellowed when he saw his friend's corpse being mutilated this way.

"Don't go. If you do, you will be falling for their tricks. We will make them pay when the experts of the other domains arrive!" Someone at the side stopped this person. Although he was angry, he still retained his rationality.

Sitting on the rock, the Blood Demon Qin Yun saw this scene. He smiled and called out, "The Tianwu Domain really has no one left. Bai Wuxue ran away like a dog, but you are all not even comparable to dogs!"

After he said that, the four Demons laughed together. However, as they laughed, their heads all flew off at the same time.

The headless bodies slowly collapsed. A war chariot descended and crushed the four corpses into powder before flying off again.

"Clang!"

The war chariot happened to catch four Divine Weapons that were flying back.

The resonant sound of sabers lingered in the place. However, the black war chariot had already disappeared long ago.

"Not holding the saber in the hands, not leaving a trace of himself behind, it's the Shadowless Saber Sovereign!" someone said hoarsely some time later, when he finally reacted to what happened.
