Infiltrating the Palace
The underground palace consisted of more palaces within. There was no light in there. The air was eerie and cold. Black clouds wandered in the void. Mighty adepts guarded the palace. Yang Tian couldn’t believe the enormous size of the palace; the cost must’ve been unfathomable.
Elders greeted Yang Tian as Second Divine Daughter. Some avoided him out of fear. He would give them content nods and continue on his way. Despite that, he was tense the entire time in the enemy’s lair. He picked up on violent and resentful auras up ahead.
A bloodthirsty red altar roughly thirty-three metres tall was situated up ahead. A red vortex rotated above it. Phantasmal human heads were visible. The heads belonged to Divine Souls of adepts crying vindictively. Blood trickled from the vortex. The devils around poured blood from jade bottles into the vortex, amplifying the vortex’s output. The sight of it angered Yang Tian so much that he clenched his fists.
“Uncle Xiao, what is that?”
Yang Xiao sent out a small amount of Divine Soul Energy to look: “It’s a Blood Deity Altar! I’ve seen a 330 metres tall version before. It’s used to summon an adept’s will from the primordial era! It can also be used to kill! 330 metres isn’t even the tallest. They built one 3333 metres in the ancient era. They summoned Blood Deity that time.”
“It can be used to summon a deity?”
“Ten million lives are required to create a Blood Deity Altar!”
That was the population of a city.
“Curse the devils! Just how many people have they killed?”
The Myriad Devil Blood Sea Formation Yang Tian saw was insignificant in comparison to Blood Deity Altar.
Yang Tian pledged to seal all the devils in one dimension, only to realise how outrageous the idea was since he was still in Autarch Realm. His ancestor couldn’t even kill off Divine Devils, so the Devil Lord was likely stronger than his ancestor.
A cold gaze suddenly locked on to Yang Tian. Sensing it, he furrowed his eyebrows and looked back at the youth. The owner of the Overlord Body once wounded him critically during his fight with Li Clan. The youth almost killed Yun’er later at Dao Divine Mountain. Yang Tian coldly said to himself, Don’t let me catch you, Autarch Realm scum.
Yang Tian turned and froze when he saw Li Qingxue. He couldn’t believe she was still alive after her Dao Heart was supposedly demolished. She survived and climbed to Almighty Realm to his surprise. She didn’t die; she lost her mind. The youth took her with him that day. She went from striving to become a Divine Maiden above others to falling to the devil race’s toy. Yang Tian assumed Li Yulan was also alive since he possessed divine blood. Yang Tian touched his nose and left.
Yun’er’s Yin Source was ostensibly deep inside the palace based off the memories Yang Xiao obtained. Yang Tian saw more altars on his way in. It was clear the devil race had been plotting for a long time. He eventually arrived at a palace, fists clenched, that belonged to Second Divine Daughter – as noted on the plaque above the door.
There were was a maid on the left and right guarding the entrance. The two knelt down when Yang Tian arrived. He nodded and entered the expansive palace with plenty of doors. He smiled and boldly headed to the owner’s bedroom.
