Chapter 131. The Legacy of the Ancient King
Mo Fan successfully stepped into the exit, and the Bridge of Nine Deaths and One Life began to collapse. Ancient jade stones were broken into countless pieces and fell into the black abyss, where they were cut into fragments by the black wind.
Only one real bridge remains, which is the altar leading to the tomb.
The altar was hidden in endless darkness, like a stone platform that had been floating in the cold, ancient, dark universe for who knows how many years.
The altar was shaped like an ice crown, and the stone steps below were enormous, several times taller than a person. The steps were not meant for people to climb, but rather for gods and giants to ascend.
From a distance, the altar appears to be draped with red silk ribbons, scattered along the edges of each giant staircase. But upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the red ribbons are not silk ribbons at all, but rather a cascading waterfall of blood, thick enough to be viscous.
"Splash splash splash"
The angular parts were shaped into a dragon's skull, with a waterfall of blood gushing from its mouth, cascading down with a thunderous roar like a waterfall.
You should know that this is real blood!
Mo Fan didn't pay too much attention to these things and walked straight up.
As you ascend the long stone steps, the entire altar begins to shrink in size, with the steps becoming narrower as you go higher, until they gradually become so narrow that a person can step across them in one stride.
"Buzzing!!!"
Clearly, some kind of power resonated strongly with the Azure Dragon pendant.
Mo Fan stood there quietly, his heart filled with vigilance, yet surprisingly he did not feel any discomfort.
On the Blood Throne, the tattered armor exuded an ancient and weathered aura.
He was instantly enveloped by black power.
Following closely behind were the Ghost Lord, who had never appeared before, and his army of evil spirits, as well as the Skeleton Lord and the terrifying skeleton legion, which finally receded like the tide.
The Azure Dragon Pendant also calmed down at this moment, as if nothing had happened.
After this power was fully injected, Mo Fan was surprised to find that an armored robe appeared in his mental world.
At this moment, at the inner city wall, the corpse of the mountain peak was constantly stepping towards the inner city.
It's not just about power, but also about memories from the era of the ancient king, and his understanding of magic during his slumber.
The entire Abyss of Fiends trembled violently, as if responding to this powerful force.
In the center, a huge piece of jade stood silently, radiating a mysterious and alluring light.
And the tattered armor that had been on the Blood Throne vanished completely at that moment.
"Rumble rumble rumble!!!!!!!!!!"
It resembles stardust, yet possesses a unique form, entirely different from ordinary stardust.
People may not charge forward, but that doesn't mean they will just wait quietly forever.
Immediately afterwards, Mo Fan, filled with trepidation and anticipation, activated the power belonging to the ancient king within his body.
It lay there quietly, as if telling of its past glory and honor.
This force is so powerful, it's unimaginable.
As this mysterious energy was injected, Mo Fan's mental world gradually turned pitch black, as if shrouded in endless darkness.
"Rumble rumble rumble!!!!"
At the same time, the Azure Dragon pendant around Mo Fan's neck also shone brightly with a dazzling azure light.
The intense vibration felt as if the Azure Dragon pendant had encountered something extremely familiar and was eagerly trying to respond to it.
With a thought, everything here instantly stabilized.
The first to vanish was the northern city. Most of the rotting corpses possessed the ability to burrow underground, and the vast sea of corpses seeped beneath the city's ruins in just a few minutes. Judging from the unusual ripples in the ground, these tens of thousands of rotting corpses were following the corpses on the mountain peaks, gradually disappearing into the distance.
The immense power even made Mo Fan feel somewhat lost.
"Thump!!!"
However, at that moment, they seemed to sense some kind of summons.
Not only the corpses of the mountain peaks, but even the Lord of the Underworld was now stirring with desire.
The next moment, the armor of the remnant soul instantly wrapped around Mo Fan's body.
In the original world, Zhan Kong inherited the legacy of the ancient king, but he was not a true successor, so the power he could unleash was only half of what it should be.
The ancient king's power had already reached the pinnacle of human strength during his lifetime. After his death, he was nurtured in the Abyss of Evil for two thousand years, and his power undoubtedly increased many times over.
As Mo Fan unleashed this powerful force, he felt as if he had reached an unimaginable realm.
Its sharp edges and corners resemble countless sharp swords stuck together to form an imposing throne, which is the eye-catching Blood Throne.
The inner city, which remained intact, and all the survivors, still had complete city walls and buildings, but it seemed utterly exhausted, silent under the sunlight. For a very long time, no one realized that the catastrophe was over.
But things are different now. Mo Fan is the one who truly awaits the inheritance. With the proof of the Azure Dragon Pendant, he has truly obtained everything that belongs to the ancient king.
Upon arriving here, Mo Fan's gaze was immediately drawn to the top of the altar, which was covered in white jade.
But soon, the darkness turned into inky black, resembling the mysterious and dangerous aura of a demon, yet it was not a true demon.
Clearly, it was already planning to breach the city!
As the armor and the Azure Dragon pendant shone together, Mo Fan suddenly sensed a powerful force pouring into his body like a surging tide.
Mo Fan immediately looked inward into his spiritual world and saw black energy beginning to gather.
With each step the corpse of the mountain took, the earth shook, and with each step it took, a large army of undead outside the inner city would inexplicably sink into the mud.
As soon as he stepped into this mysterious place, Mo Fan noticed that his Azure Dragon Pendant began to fluctuate violently.
These invaluable assets will become a powerful asset for Mo Fan on his future path!
However, Mo Fan knew clearly that he had already received the inheritance of the ancient king.
"Thump!!!"
Immediately afterwards, it emitted a strange light, which, like a mysterious thread, shot straight toward Mo Fan.
The next moment, the mountain corpse stopped moving forward. Instead, as if it had received some kind of command, it turned around and took big strides toward the direction outside the city.
The jadeite displays a vibrant, lustrous red color, and is as translucent as the purest gemstone.
The next moment, the armor on the Blood Throne seemed to be awakened by a mysterious power and slowly floated into the air.
Apart from that, there were no other noticeable fluctuations in the entire space; it was so quiet that it seemed as if time itself had stood still.
Moreover, he did not become an undead; he remained a human.
The two lights intertwined, collided, and reflected each other continuously.
"Thump!!"
The black ocean gradually disappeared to the north, and the city's devastation was fully exposed to the gradually brightening sunlight: collapsed buildings, shattered streets, ruined bridges, and a completely unrecognizable urban area.
