Chapter 2396 The God Race's Thoughts
Xiang Nan touched the pillar with his hand and carefully sensed it. "Indeed, it is the essence of power. The energy in this pillar is the purest. It can be absorbed by any martial artist of any attribute."
"Furthermore, there is also a Spirit Void Seventh Layer godhead stored here, that is, a Temple Battle God level godhead."
"But …"
The big snake said, "But what?"
Xiang Nan frowned and said, "There is a power on this pillar that protects the Absorber. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the eternal power of the Crimson Eye Race."
Xiang Nan took a few steps back and slowly opened his third eye between his eyebrows. Then, he went to observe the pillar. Sure enough, there was a faint red light on the pillar.
Xiang Nan nodded and said, "That's right. If I start absorbing the power on the pillar, the Eternal Force inside will forcibly protect me and put me in an eternal state. I will not be able to contact the outside world, nor will I be attacked."
"Only when I absorb enough power essence will I be able to come out on my own."
The big snake said happily, "This is a good thing!"
Xiang Nan said, "It's a good thing, but it's also not. You should know that there is a dragon knight in the corridor. If I start absorbing it now, I will meet that dragon knight when Guan Xiao and the others rush over."
"Well, that's a problem. Then we can only wait for Guan Xiao and the others to come over and absorb it together. Before that, you have to kill the dragon knight before you can guarantee your safety," the serpent said.
Xiang Nan patted the pillar and said, "This should be the foundation of the third ring formation, the eighth danger zone. If you destroy this pillar, then the eighth danger zone will be broken."
"But … what's going on with these statues?"
Before the Dragon Knights arrived, Xiang Nan began to study this place.
Beside the pillars were a large number of statues, which at first glance looked almost the same as the ones in the corridor.
But why are these statues standing here? Why didn't they launch an attack?
Then what's the point of them standing here.
Xiang Nan said, "We need to understand the function of these statues. I don't want other accidents to happen when I absorb the essence of power."
As he spoke, Xiang Nan used his giant saber to lightly tap the face of a statue.
Clinker, there were actually fine rocks falling off that face, revealing a small face of a real person!
"This …"
Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly used his saber to knock open the entire statue. As a result, a lifelike corpse appeared.
The corpse's complexion was rosy, like a living person, but it had no signs of life.
The serpent said, "I understand! This is the corpse of those ancient race ancestors trapped in the dimensional tomb!"
Xiang Nan said thoughtfully, "So it's like this. The corpses are also hidden in danger."
"When we entered the Heavenspan Tower, we encountered several Fallen Ancient Gods at the seventh level of Spirit Void. These Ancient Gods should have been obtained by the God Race from the first seven dangers, right?"
This time, the enormous formation in the Primordial Tomb was divided into five rings, starting at the fifth level of the Spirit Void and ending at the ninth level.
The third ring corresponded to the seventh level of the Spirit Void Realm, and the seventh level of the Spirit Void Realm corpses would appear in this ring as well.
Because the first four dangers of the third ring formation had already been broken by the God Race, they had obtained the ancient corpse of the seventh level of the Spirit Void Realm and converted it into a Fallen Ancient God of the seventh level of the Spirit Void Realm. Then, they had the Fallen Ancient God help them to go through the dangers behind them.
That was what Xiang Nan and the others had encountered.
Xiang Nan pondered for a moment and then said, "You said that the experts we met before were all so powerful, but why didn't they split apart? That Fallen Scarlet Eye, Fallen White Eyes."
"If they were split into thousands, wouldn't it be much easier for them to venture into danger again?"
Before Xiang Nan arrived at the peak, he had seen Red Devil and Yong Yan who were astonishingly powerful, but why was there only one of them?
Even when Xiang Nan was in Yongle City, there seemed to be only one first-class dragon knight, Han Mo.
The serpent said, "There is probably only one explanation for this. It must be the selfishness of the God Race."
"Fallen Scarlet Eyes, Fallen White Eyes. After all, they do not belong to the God Race. I think the God Race should have limited a portion of their vitality when converting them."
"It prevents them from splitting up multiple times."
"Mm" Xiang Nan felt the same way.
The God Race was so arrogant, but the Fallen Scarlet Eye and the Fallen White Eye were much stronger than the Fallen God. If the two races could split indefinitely, who would this world belong to in the future? Would he still belong to the Fallen God?
Wasn't the God Race working in vain to make a wedding dress for someone else instead?
Xiang Nan said, "We can't let these corpses be tainted anymore. I'd rather break them than let the God Race transform them into fallen ancient gods."
Xiang Nan immediately made a decision. With a slight shake of his right hand, the saber wind crushed all the corpses in the hall into powder.
Although this was disrespectful to their ancestors, it was still much better than having them be transformed and controlled like walking corpses.
Then, Xiang Nan quietly waited.
Presumably, Guan Xiao and the others had already entered the corridor and started to break through.
Xiang Nan sat cross-legged, waiting for the arrival of the first rank dragon knight. He had to be dealt with first before he could start absorbing the essence of power.
After a period of time, as expected, he heard the sound of horse hooves coming from outside the main hall.
Immediately after, the main entrance of the hall was blasted apart.
The dragon knight ferociously rushed in and directly attacked Xiang Nan without even looking at the situation here.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Xiang Nan stood up from the ground and immediately launched a counterattack.
At this moment, Xiang Nan had already made the most perfect preparations. He summoned the six suns in advance, released the Divine Lightning Seal, and opened the Eye of Anger.
Full fire! Without any reservations!
The two of them collided with each other fiercely.
To Xiang Nan's surprise, although this dragon knight was also a first-class one, his strength was still slightly inferior to that of a first-class dragon knight, Han Mo.
At the scene, the sun and lightning shot wildly, while Xiang Nan had always used his body to block the pillar, preventing it from being accidentally destroyed by the dragon knight.
Xiang Nan relied on his strong fighting consciousness to fight more and more valiantly, gradually gaining the upper hand.
The dragon knight gradually entered a passive state of being beaten.
In the end, Xiang Nan struck the dragon knight in the chest with his Thunder Dragon Palm, and immediately chased after him with a vertical chop, killing him on the spot!
The dragon knight and his horse were split into two.
Following that, he drew down a ray of sunlight to purify the dragon knight's corpse, but in the end, there was no reaction.
Xiang Nan frowned slightly and said, "Why hasn't his corpse turned into sewage?"
"It's hard to say," said the snake. "It might have something to do with the protection mechanism of this hall."
"But it doesn't matter anymore. Look, his corpse hasn't split up yet. This means that our previous deduction is true."
In order to prevent the Fallen Ancient God from occupying the world, when the God Race converted them, they were stingy with their life force and made some moves on it.
In the future, it would still be the new God Race that dominated the entire God Realm.
Xiang Nan heaved a sigh of relief, put away the giant saber, and continued to sit cross-legged, waiting for Guan Xiao and the others to arrive.
