Chapter 1979: What Exactly Is Inside the Bronze Ancient Coffin
The group is unable to enter the giant pit.
The entrance to the pit is protected by an array barrier, which cannot be breached without dismantling it.
The Brahman sound contains supreme Buddha power and is incredibly aggressive, even powerful beings like the Yin-Yang Divine Demon cannot break through.
"Master Zhao, do you have any ideas?"
Fu Huangtian could not help but turn to Ye Chenfeng for assistance.
Ye Chenfeng’s expression remained unchanged, but suddenly the Buddha’s light on him flourished, an expansive surge of Buddha energy emerged, permeating the entire space, resonating with the Myriad Buddha Holy Body.
The Buddha sound continued to echo, yet it became gentler, losing its previous aggressive nature.
"Let’s go!"
Ye Chenfeng spoke up.
Instantly, the group slowly jumped into the giant pit.
They controlled their descent to observe their surroundings carefully.
The rock walls were carved with niches housing deceased ancient monks.
The grandeur of the project and the sheer number of monks were extraordinary.
"What is this place? The monks here have a cultivation level not less than a human immortal! Holy Buddhas within Buddhism! All these Buddhas here to trap a terrifying entity?"
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon spoke with deep apprehension.
Upon observation, it was found that all these monks had extraordinary cultivation levels before their deaths, at least that of a human immortal.
Thousands upon thousands of human immortals?
If this news were to spread, it would surely shock the entire world!
"What? Look over there!"
Suddenly, Qie Gewala exclaimed, pointing towards an iron ladder hanging halfway!
The ladder had long since rusted, and when Ye Chenfeng touched it, it turned to dust.
"Could someone have been here before?"
Fu Huangtian and others had puzzled expressions.
Ye Chenfeng said calmly, "It’s possible!"
Inside, he was extremely shocked, as he touched the ladder to inspect it closely.
The ladder bore markings of letters that identified them as the Undying Legion.
Ye Chenfeng was puzzled by how they had managed to bypass the array at the pit’s entrance, indicating some skilled individuals among them.
However, it seemed none of the Undying Legion had left alive!
"We have to be cautious. Apart from the danger of what’s here, if any ancient entities are still alive, they pose a significant threat to us."
Fu Huangtian cautioned.
As they continued downward, the view became clearer.
After an unknown period, the group finally reached the bottom of the pit.
This giant pit was conical, increasingly narrow toward the bottom.
At the bottom was a gigantic sacrificial altar, with a bronze coffin at its center.
"Whew!"
Upon reaching the bottom, an overwhelming force surged forth.
Different images appeared in their minds, all etched memories of the past.
To Ye Chenfeng, it was the overlapping scenes of Chu Qingxue and Ye Qingge, fading in life and death.
"Kill!"
Ye Chenfeng saw the figure of the Dark God — it was he who had ultimately comprehended Ye Qingge.
"Killing Sword!"
A murderous intent flashed in Ye Chenfeng’s eyes, the most brutal intent of the Killing Sword surged, transforming into the Sword of Destruction.
Even Hao beside him was overwhelmed with anger, unleashing a full force attack, intent on destroying the Dark God.
The Dark God was no match and was slain on the spot.
"Snap out of it!"
A force passed through, a coolness spread.
Ye Chenfeng regained consciousness, but before him, Fu Huangtian was near death, looking at him in disbelief.
"You... you are Ye... Ye..."
Fu Huangtian breathed his last before finishing his sentence.
He was severely injured already, unable to withstand Ye Chenfeng’s and Hao’s furious full-force attack, especially with the Killing Sword.
Fu Huangtian’s unfortunate death was unexpected by all.
"Killing Sword? What relation do you have to Ye Chenfu? Are you... are you the Forbidden God King Ye Chenfeng, son of Ye Chenfu?"
Despite being an ancient creature, the Yin-Yang Divine Demon was well-informed about external matters.
Ye Chenfeng slowly removed his mask and calmly replied, "Yes, it’s me."
"It’s truly fate! Who would have thought Ye Chenfu’s son would be here!"
"Destiny! A predetermined fate in this life!"
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon sighed with emotion.
Ye Chenfeng was puzzled and couldn’t help asking, "What do you mean?"
"Haha, now’s not the time to discuss this issue. If you manage to leave alive, you might eventually understand."
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon did not enlighten Ye Chenfeng further.
Ye Chenfeng stopped inquiring and began examining the environment.
Though conical, the pit’s bottom remained wide, spanning the area of four to five football fields.
They were still at a considerable distance from the bronze coffin in the center.
"What? There’s Zhao’s remains!"
Qie Gewala cried out in shock.
The surroundings were filled with eerie white bones clad in identical combat suits.
No doubt, they belonged to the Undying Legion.
Judging by their wounds, many died due to hallucinations leading them to kill each other.
"These are..."
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon was gravely startled, his eyes revealing disbelief.
Ye Chenfeng quickly thought and said, "Yin-Yang Divine Demon, now we’re in the same predicament. I need you to tell me your purpose here."
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon hesitated briefly before speaking, "The first purpose you know, Li Chunfeng once hid the last page of the Back-pushing Pictures here. The second purpose is Mr. Long’s, to release and take away the entity inside."
"What entity?"
Ye Chenfeng asked.
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon shook his head: "Specifically, I don’t know. But based on research and rumors, there’s an entity in here capable of altering the world, or perhaps the world’s greatest secret."
"Is this entity a living being or an object?"
Ye Chenfeng asked.
"Only Mr. Long might know."
Ye Chenfeng was inwardly shocked.
The Undying Legion came here seeking the Immortal Axis, rumored to alter time and space, known to change the world.
In his view, the Earth Axis is akin to a Caelum Stone-like object, possessing miraculous abilities.
Or perhaps it’s a kind of array...
Due to the array encountered at the Skeleton Coast base and the Sword God’s explanation of Earth Axis principles.
Ye Chenfeng was truly puzzled, unsure which outcome to believe.
What truly is the Earth Axis? How does it relate to Lop Nur?
"Don’t approach it yet!"
Seeing the Yin-Yang Divine Demon approaching the bronze coffin, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but warn.
"Why is that?"
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon asked.
Ye Chenfeng glanced at the bodies on the ground and said, "They likely made contact with it, I need to search for clues first."
"Alright, you search first!"
The Yin-Yang Divine Demon nodded.
Immediately, Ye Chenfeng began inspecting each corpse.
"Huh? There’s something!"
Beside one body, Ye Chenfeng found a diary.
Ye Chenfeng promptly opened it, documenting everything that had happened since the assembly of the Undying Legion.
