Chapter 1009 - 995: Ancient Battlefield
The situation on the seventh floor of the underground palace is not complicated.
Apart from the ancient battlefield at the center where the Seven Coiled Relics are located, there is the outermost circle of people attracted by the Seven Coiled Relics.
Baiyu and the others were also outside the ancient battlefield.
As time went by, more and more people arrived here, and seeing the mountainous white remains in the middle, everyone was overwhelmed with shock.
More and more people stepped into the ancient battlefield.
This also triggered changes in the ancient battlefield.
At night, the ancient battlefield was often filled with the sounds of clashing weapons and horses, and no one knew what the Martial Artists had activated.
To this day.
No useful information could be obtained from the Martial Artists who came out.
They all retreated from the periphery of the ancient battlefield, without entering its interior. Clearly, the real treasures of the ancient battlefield were hidden deeper inside.
This was a Land of Fallen Gods.
"Let's go, we're going in too."
After Baiyu, Machima, and Cai discussed, they didn't delay any longer and stepped into the ancient battlefield.
...
The sky above the ancient battlefield was dark and gloomy.
Floating in the air were some unknown light red filaments, and everywhere in sight was withered soil, with no vegetation covering it.
On the pitch-black soil, many broken weapons were stuck in it.
Swords, spears, sabers, and halberds.
And more strangely shaped objects, even Machima and Cai, who were from a generation earlier than Baiyu, couldn't recognize them.
One mound after another stood tall on the ground.
Apart from various weapon wreckages, there were also many corpses of creatures, not just humans, but various kinds of creatures.
Beneath these mounds.
The unique terrain formed a series of barrier lakes, but the water inside was not yellow or black; it was leaning towards blood-red, as if composed of fresh blood.
The three of them advanced slowly, constantly paying attention to their surroundings.
After all, this was the site of the God Battle on the seventh floor; anything could happen.
The three arrived at the shore of a red lake, which, unlike Baiyu's previous imagination of a blood lake, was not composed of blood, lacking any fishy smell.
Baiyu used a tool to scoop up a ladle of lake water, finding no peculiar smell.
Except that the stuff had a peculiar color.
This was no different from ordinary lake water.
"Can you tell what this is?" Baiyu asked, looking to the side.
Machima shook her head: "It looks like some kind of special liquid, probably caused by the unique environment here. Isn't this an ancient battlefield? Too many living beings died here; abnormalities are bound to arise."
Cai also nodded: "Although I can't analyze what's in it, I'm sure it's not blood or normal water; it's best not to touch it. Look at the others around, none dare to get near this stuff."
Aside from Baiyu and the other two.
There were also many other Martial Artists around.
Even the warriors of the three great families had gathered under the command of their realm's strongmen, ready to face the upcoming changes.
The seventh floor had the most treasures.
For the past two days.
Many lucky ones had discovered ancient relics among the battlefield ruins, including powerful sealing objects and such.
The underground seventh floor essentially had more things than the Seven Coiling Hall and the first six layers of the underground palace combined.
And because of the God War.
The entire battlefield was filled with all sorts of bizarre powers.
The three great families no longer dared to act solo; they all gathered together, while the other lone wanderers also began to gather voluntarily.
After all, it's easy to encounter danger when alone here.
A group is always somewhat safer.
In times of danger, as long as you run faster than others, you're safe.
Apart from the scattered Martial Artists and the three great families, on the seventh floor were also people studying the Seven Coiled Relics, trying to steal their power.
These people were from various eras.
Every time the Spiritual Qi Revival occurred, and the Seven Coils Ruins opened, people would enter, eventually staying due to the immense Seven Coiled Relics.
This group was evidently more familiar with this place.
But most were mentally unsound, acting on instinct alone.
This group.
Was called the Corpse People.
In other words, walking dead.
After Baiyu and the other two left the red pond, they found that some Corpse People were walking toward the pond, and upon reaching the edge, they crouched down, using their hands to scoop up the pond water to drink.
After drinking.
Their pale faces turned rosy, and their withered skin began to plump up.
"This..."
Machima frowned.
The three originally wanted to research what effect this stuff had, but at this moment, the blood pond suddenly started boiling.
Gurgle gurgle.
Bubbles surfaced on the water, like a pot of boiling soup.
Pale red blood mist rose from the pond water.
Cai, upon smelling this pale red blood mist, turned grim: "These blood mists have a mental pollution effect, don't inhale it."
As a Ship Spirit of a Legendary Ship.
She had strong resistance to things that could affect the spirit and was immune to most poisons. However, the red blood mist could affect her, proving the effect of the blood mist was beyond imagination; if an ordinary person inhaled it, they would likely lose their consciousness entirely.
However.
Those Corpse People actually used this lake water as drinking water.
"Perhaps it was drinking this lake water that turned those Corpse People into what they are now," Baiyu thought to himself.
At this moment, it wasn't just the blood lake near them boiling.
The entire underground seventh floor, all blood lakes began bubbling wildly, exuding large amounts of fog.
The originally dark underground world.
Suddenly was shrouded in a red blood mist.
Everyone in this space was enveloped by the mist.
Although Cai had warned them, the three had no choice but to circulate Blood Qi, constantly dispelling the blood mist within them.
More Martial Artists.
Soon fell under the influence of the blood mist. π§πβ―ππππππ°π·π¦π.πΈβ΄π
Though three strongmen from the Eclipse Moon Realm warned them, the situation now made avoiding the blood mist impossible.
As long as they kept breathing.
They had to inhale the blood-colored mist.
Just when the three strongmen in the Eclipse Moon Realm were about to let other Martial Artists withdraw to avoid major casualties, suddenly a giant blood pillar rose in the middle of the ruins.
Countless mist surged towards the massive Seven Coiled Relics.
Layer upon layer of blood mist covered the Seven Coiled white skeletons, like a dreamlike veil.
Then.
Beams of seven-colored light suddenly rose from the Seven Coiled relics.
Everyone enveloped in the light felt completely refreshed, their bodies eased, and any external injuries or hidden ailments instantly healed.
Even some people's mental pollution was expelled at that moment.
"The Seven Coiling Treasures have emerged!!"
