Chapter 3007 – Retreat Due to Fear
Third Elder and Dou Tianhuang were utterly shocked. Especially Dou Tianhuang, since his ancestor was found kneeling before someone else's tomb, it was truly disgraceful!
From people’s point of view, this emperor must be exceptionally terrifying, for the most powerful emperor of the Battle God Clan to be killed here. Dou Tianhuang was shocked to the core.
A peerless emperor like Dou Shifang was already a powerful existence, however, for him to die in this tomb… Third Elder was shocked, the owner of this tomb must be terrifying, a part of him wanted to get away, run away after getting that blade.
However, curiosity was driving him, even though he knew he would even die if he continued to go on.
That mysterious formation, this tomb, that giant Floating Stone and this great emperor’s corpse… it brought him great fear and despair, he knew that the danger was too great.
Dou Tianhuang and Third Elder looked at each other as they looked at the other kneeling corpses. Dou Tianhuang’s expression changed once again.
“Eighth Ancestor…” Dou Tianhuang’s expression lost its colours.
The Eighth Ancestor was a Peak Divine Emperor, to think he died here too?
Dou Tianhuang was filled with terror. Because he knew that it was too dangerous for him to continue staying in this place as two great ancestors of the clan died here. He knew how weak he was compared to his ancestors, he would most likely die if he continued.
“To think he’s an ancestor of your Battle God Clan?” Third Elder’s breathing stagnated.
Two ancestors, it was a great find for the Battle God Clan.
“Yes, unexpectedly, my Battle God Clan’s two peerless experts died here.”
Dou Tianhuang was speechless, he wondered whether this was good or bad news, however, he would surely be rewarded greatly after he returned the bodies of his ancestors back to the clan.
Peerless Great Emperors died at this place without anyone knowing about it.
Third Elder was extremely curious about this ancient emperor’s identity.
Dou Tianhuang turned and retrieved his ancestor’s body. They both knew that their spirits were long gone along with the divine energy within their bodies. It was just an empty husk, it’s not really a precious treasure, however, it’s different for the Battle God Clan!
“I do not wish to continue further, Third Elder, good luck, I shall take my leave.” Dou Tianhuang said.
Third Elder was stunned by his words. He’s going to leave just like that?
“Are you going to give up on the treasures from the tomb?”
“I must give up even if there are boundless treasures at the end of the journey. I have the responsibility to return the body of my ancestors back to the Battle God Clan.” Dou Tianhuang said.
Third Elder did not speak anymore. He was contemplating whether he should continue this journey as the danger was too much for him alone.
Dou Tianhuang was gone and Third Elder faced the door while attempting to wield the blade. A powerful qi suddenly pushed him back from the side, the Third Elder looked back at the person behind him.
“Who is it?!”
“Hehe, Third Elder, you have contributed greatly in this journey. I will ask the Second Brother to reward you greatly once we’re back.”
It was none other than the Profound Connection Divine Palace’s Third Palace Lord!
“Third Palace Lord!” Third Elder’s expression slightly changed and said with a smile.
“Why? I’m not welcomed? Hahaha, I do not wish to come too, but there’s nothing to do in the Profound Connection Divine Palace, therefore I chose to come and have a look, to think there’s such a great find.” Third Palace Lord smiled.
“Third Palace Lord, what are you talking about? I can be at ease since the Third Palace Lord is here. Hehehe.” Third Elder said with a fake smile.
Since the Third Palace Lord is here now, it’ll be impossible for me to keep anything great.
“Good! Good! Good! I am fond of this white jade divine blade, Third Elder, bring it to me.” Third Palace Lord said.
“Alright.” Third Elder was somewhat not happy about it.
However, the Third Palace Lord was a Half-Step Divine Emperor, he could not go against him as he could easily kill him. The gap that they have was too big.
Third Elder then tried to wield the white jade divine blade again but he couldn’t pull out the blade no matter what.
“How can this be?” Third Elder’s expression changed.
A terrifying sword qi pushed him back.
“This white jade divine blade is not simple. Third Elder could not pull it out? Hehe, interesting.” Third Palace Lord smiled, his eyes shone brightly.
Third Palace Lord quickly came forward and grabbed it, however, it wouldn’t budge no matter what.
“What sword is this?” Third Palace Lord’s expression darkened and became ugly.
He too failed and his reputation was tarnished!
“There are three doors in this tomb. The first door has been broken, the second one is harder than the first one. The second formation is the Six Directions and Eight Desolates Formation, it’s one of the most powerful formations of the Ancient Nine Region Emperor. We should not take it lightly even if billions of years have passed. I was already pretty surprised by the Heavenly Dragon Knights appearing on the first door. We’ll still have to face them if we wish to exit the tomb. Not even a Peak Hierarch could get through the second door easily. The white-jade divine blade could be taken out if the formation is broken.” A voice resounded through the space.
