A godly light as beautiful as blood!”
Hearing this, Li Qi Ye’s gaze dimmed. A godly light as beautiful as blood — this was the thing he didn’t want to see the most! One had to know that during the ancient times, the Evil Infested Ridge was its own world, a separate piece of heaven, but this was not a peaceful ground.
“What is wrong?”
Seeing Li Qi Ye’s expression, Li Shuang Yan felt something was wrong.
Li Qi Ye said:
“We will go check it out and see if there are Heavenly Beasts and Longevity Spirits hibernating, or whether they have ran off somewhere.”
In the past, Li Qi Ye absolutely believed that this thing will not appear. This strange existence was not only mysteriously powerful, but was extremely difficult to deal with. It was extremely tenacious like the wild weeds. It was basically impossible to destroy its roots.
In fact, the first time he came here as the Dark Crow, he already swept through everything once with Immortal Emperor Xue Xi. Later on, he did it again with Immortal Emperor Min Ren and almost turned this place upside down. However, if this ghastly thing could just leave behind a little bit of its roots, then it could tenaciously rise again.
Even though he left behind a method to suppress it as the Dark Crow that year, it seemed like it was no longer there!
“Many cultivators are rushing east and some are even crossing the dangerous area. However, there are no Longevity Spirits or Heavenly Beasts.”
As they were heading east, Li Shuang Yan reported back to Li Qi Ye.
“It was indeed so.”
Li Qi Ye murmured:
“I also want to see what type of appearance it will have after millions of years of pregnancy!”[1]
“The treasure of the gods? This is only a rumor, but someone said that the Evil Infested Ridge was a land of the gods and that this place had godly treasures!”
Li Shuang Yan looked at Li Qi Ye and said.
Regarding this matter, Li Qi Ye smiled and slowly spoke:
“Treasures of the gods? I have never seen them, but there could be a godly bone or or two in the sea of bones from the gods!”
“There are gods in this world?”
Li Shuang Yan emotionally asked Li Qi Ye.
Regarding immortals and gods, not just the Mortal Emperor World, there were many legends in all of the Nine Worlds. Some said that this world used to have immortals, but they were exterminated later on.
Some even said that during the ancient eras, there was an era of the gods. The gods used to rule over the nine worlds and ten earths. However, whether there were gods or not, no one could really say. There had been a few who obtained treasures and even Life Treasures, not from the wise sages during the Desolate Era, but of an even earlier age.
These were heaven defying treasures, but because one couldn’t go back in time to find out, some cultivators considered these the treasures of gods.
“Gods?”
Li Qi Ye loudly laughed and leisurely said:
“If there are gods in this world, then I am the lord of the gods. If there are immortals in this world, then I am the king of the immortals.”
These words were too unbridled. Lord of the gods, king of the immortals — anyone who heard this would think that Li Qi Ye was lying, but Li Shuang Yan was used to it. Sometimes, Li Qi Ye said many arrogant things, but in his hands, matters were easily settled! This was downright frightening!
As they continued eastward, many cultivators were foraging everywhere. They were either looking for spirit pills and medicinal grasses or digging for treasures and godly metals. Many people rushed here when they knew that there were no Longevity Spirits or Heavenly Beasts left.
In a short period of time, this news spread throughout the entire ridge. Someone said:
“I heard that there is a godly treasure appearing in the east and it alarmed many great sects and nations.”
“Right. Even Sheng Tian Dao was heading east quickly.”
Another cultivator said.
Another added:
“People saw the fierce beasts leaving the east. It was probably because they couldn’t handle the godly treasure’s presence, so they left.”
“We should also go quickly. At the moment, everyone is going there. There will be so many treasures everywhere that will be ripe for the picking. If the dangerous area is no longer dangerous, then everyone will become rich.”
