Chapter 671: Chapter 23, the Five Elders (second update)
The snow-white skeleton was very fragile, and so was the rotten longsword. It had been here for God knows how many years.
In the past, it had been a supreme magical treasure, sharp and unstoppable. But now, time had wiped out its spirituality, reducing its sharpness and making it no longer powerful.
Many weapons and magical treasures were buried in the weapons burial valley. It was impossible for them to be divine weapons. It was impossible for them to give birth to souls like the black tortoise.
Most of the weapons were still lost in the passage of time.
When the long sword saw ye Sheng, it wanted to display its former power. However, it forgot that the times had changed. The glorious era that belonged to it had passed. It was no longer the main character of the world.
After defeating the white skeleton, the long sword was shattered. Ye Sheng continued to move forward. He did not dare to move fast anymore and kept in contact with the black tortoise at all times.
“Who are the five people you asked me to memorize?”Ye Sheng asked curiously.
Chi Jun, the Void Demon King, and Gu Ling were all very curious.
Wasn’t the weapon burial valley used to bury weapons?
Why would someone be buried here?
Black tortoise answered ye sheng, “Have you heard of the names of the five elders?”
Ye Sheng shook his head. He did not know.
Ye Sheng secretly asked Chi Jun, “Do you know of the Five Elders?”
Chi Jun frowned and carefully recalled. He flipped through all the books he had read and still shook his head. “The universe is too big and has too much history. The books I have spent my entire life reading do not have any records of the five elders.”
Chi Jun had only woken up a dozen years ago. Even if he kept reading, he would not be able to read the vast history of the universe.
It was normal that he did not know.
Ye Sheng waited for Black Tortoise’s answer.
“When the ancient gods died, the divine court was not born. The Divine Court was still a small embryonic form. The universe was in chaos, and all things were born. There were five old men who were extremely powerful and had all kinds of incredible power. Their birth had found a path for all things to evolve, and these five people were also known as the five old men,”black tortoise explained.
Ye Sheng was surprised. It turned out that they had such a great background. They were actually born before the Celestial Court and the Divine Court.
“Then why are they in the Soldier Burial Valley?”Ye Sheng asked curiously.
Chi Jun and the others also listened quietly and sat in the Pantheon Pill Furnace. They didn’t have to worry about the crisis coming.
“After the five elders reached the peak, I don’t know what happened. The five decays of Heaven and man, Death came, and they had to hide from the world. After they disappeared, it was the immortal king who buried them here,”Xuanwu said about the past.
Ye Sheng said in surprise, “The immortal king personally buried them here?”
“I know it’s hard for you to believe. When the Immortal King was in the limelight and became famous in the universe, the five elders had already disappeared for hundreds of thousands of years. Very few people knew about them. Therefore, many people don’t know that the five elders and the immortal king were both teachers and friends. They were the ones who taught the immortal king how to break through the maze and establish the immortal path.”Xuanwu nodded.
“How did you know?”Ye Sheng asked curiously.
The Black Tortoise’s true form was an eight trigram. It was definitely a divine weapon and had been ‘borrowed’by Chu Xiangyu. It had only been a few million years since it came to the weapon burial valley. It had yet to reach the era of the immortal kings, not to mention the era of the five elders.
“How did I know that you didn’t need to know? Remember, the five elders have been asleep for over ten million years. You must bring them out this time.”The black tortoise did not answer Ye Sheng.
Ye Sheng nodded, his face tense. He thought of Wuxu asking them to dig out the corpses. It seemed that the five elders had a high possibility.
Now that the five elders who had taught immortal kings were here, the probability of this star area being destroyed would decrease. Even if it was going to be destroyed, it would make the mastermind suffer a little.
Gu Ling also thought that since the five elders were so powerful and had such a big background, they must be dug out.
“Ye Sheng, do your best. These five old men are our target,”Gu Ling encouraged.
Ye Sheng nodded and moved forward wholeheartedly. He avoided the dangerous areas and walked towards the center of the weapon burial valley.
After another two hours, Ye Sheng had moved forward a few miles. This speed was very slow, but fortunately, he did not encounter any danger. Some ferocious weapons did not attack ye Sheng in the end.
But at this point, Ye Sheng suddenly stopped.
Buzz Buzz Buzz!
This kind of sound came from the originally Silent Valley. It was like the wings of an insect were vibrating. It was very loud, and Ye Sheng could not help but notice it.
“There is danger,”the Void Demon King said seriously.
Ye Sheng’s eyes focused. He saw that in front of him, a dazzling light burst out and smashed over like a meteor. After taking a closer look, he realized that these were all flying knife phantoms.
Although they were phantoms, they were all extremely real.
Slender, sharp, and sparkling, almost transparent flying knives. Each knife was only the length of an index finger, and they attacked fiercely.
Counting carefully, there were thousands of shadows.
Ye Sheng cursed in his heart, “F * ck, what the Hell Is this thing?”
Boom!
Ye Sheng did not want to resist at all. These thousands of flying knives were sharp, and cold light burst forth. It was extremely dangerous, and he became a black hole.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
A black hole appeared. The flying knives were instantly sucked in. They were powerful and sharp, but they could not escape the suction force of the black hole.
“Fortunately, I transformed into a black hole. If this was my physical body, I would have been killed no matter how I tried to resist,”ye Sheng said with fear. His entire body was covered in sweat.
The flying knives came from a jade flying knife stuck in a mountain peak. It was the same shape as these flying knives.
This flying knife had just attacked Ye Sheng, and Ye Sheng did not have a good expression on his face. He directly threw the pantheon pill furnace onto it.
“Devour!”The Pantheon Pill Furnace did not show any mercy. It absorbed it in an instant, then suppressed it, turning it into the origin and absorbing it again.
After Ye Sheng suppressed the flying knife, he continued to move forward. Around the corner, he saw a huge python crawling on the mountain peak. Its huge body surrounded the mountain peak, opened its big mouth, and roared fiercely.
Roar!
The huge Python roared. It was bloody, and the stench was very unpleasant.
Ye Sheng pinched his nose and said, “You haven’t brushed your teeth for a long time. It’s so smelly, or did you just come back after eating SH * t?”
Roar!
The huge Python waved its tail angrily, and its huge tail swung directly at Ye Sheng, wanting to knock him away.
Bang!
Ye Sheng’s body trembled, but he didn’t fly away. After trembling, he grabbed the huge Python’s tail with both hands and began to swing it.
Rumble!
The python trembled and was flung away by Ye Sheng. It let out a sharp sword cry and turned into a soft sword.
“This is too strange. These weapons have all turned into spirits.”The void demon king sighed when he saw this scene.
“This is the weapon burial valley. If it were us, we would be dead in a moment,”Chi Jun exclaimed.
Ye Sheng ruthlessly threw the soft sword into the Pantheon Pill Furnace and continued to move forward.
“Avoid some big dangers. These won’t be a problem for you,”the Black Tortoise said. Along the way, it told Ye Sheng that there were dangers there and that he needed to avoid them. That was why he didn’t encounter any big dangers.
“How much longer?”Ye Sheng couldn’t help but ask. The commotion was getting louder and louder. He was afraid that other monsters were already staring at him.
“About two hours more. Continue on your way,”the black tortoise told Ye Sheng.
Yesheng stopped talking and moved toward his goal.
