Chapter 373 - 373 What Did the State Preceptor Say?

373 What Did the State Preceptor Say?

“That’s right. Mo Lianque has mentioned before that the greatest cause of the Dharma-Ending Age is because there is a terrifying Spirit-Snatching Formation in the third level of the Demon Imperial Tombs!”

“This formation has been plundering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for 3,000 years. In the end, it is sucking this world dry!”

“The reason why he dares to take action and pushes forward with the plan to change the world is because the guardian of this Spirit-Snatching Formation… is dead!”

Feng Xia’s breathing was slightly hurried, but he quickly used the Mysterious Art of Creation to control his body and did not show the turmoil he felt inside.

At the same time, he opened the divine third eye on his forehead and the light of Yin and Yang illuminated the world.

He carefully scanned every inch of land, the surrounding forest and even the depths of space. Finally, his gaze landed on the small mound.

At this moment, he saw the village chief’s face filled with curiosity, stretching out one leg that was condensed from magical power to carefully probe the grave.

It was as if he was on the verge of being beaten up!

“Be careful, don’t touch that grave—”

Feng Xia shouted.

In his vision, the small mound was constantly enlarging. Every grain of soil, and even every fine particle, was very clear to him.

Then, he finally saw…

A vast starry sky!

Every grain of soil was a huge star in the starry sky. Under the guidance of the spiritual divine force field, it was like the real starry sky of the universe, with stars that shifted and skies that changed!

Some of the stars spewed flames that were burned boundlessly, looking like blazing suns.

Some of the stars were enveloped in bright light, and the power of Yin interweaved to form a majestic moon palace. There were laurel trees growing on them, like pearls embedded in the starry sky.

There were different kinds of powers flowing on different stars.

From the power of the Yin and Yang to the five elements and four images to all kinds of strange Great Dao, they all circulated in the starry sky and were interwoven into a terrifying array formation!

“Wh—”

Hearing Feng Xia’s shout, the village chief was stunned.

However, it was still a step too late.

The leg that he stretched out made contact with the surface of the grave!

Snap.

It was like the sound of a soap bubble bursting. Before the village chief could react, his legs suddenly disappeared.

“Hiss… What… What is this?!”

The village chief felt his blood run cold.

He was severely injured when he was young. Even in his human form, he still needed to condense his legs using magical power. If he had used his real limbs to touch it just now…

He could imagine the terrifying consequences!

If it really happened, he would probably have been sucked dry in an instant!

“This is the tomb of the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor.”

Feng Xia took a deep breath and said slowly, as he was using all his strength to speak, “This is a terrifying existence that even Lingyun Kingdom at its peak can’t surpass.”

This simple sentence immediately shocked the village chief.

Lingyun Kingdom was beyond powerful at its peak…

In the end, based on what this State Preceptor said, it was actually inferior to this Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor?

“This is really…”

The village chief opened his mouth with difficulty and finally said half a sentence.

He did not know how to continue.

After a moment of silence, the village chief seemed to be a little unconvinced. He could not help but say, “State Preceptor, don’t flatter others and undermine yourself! Although this grave mound is terrifying, if you use all the power of the country to refine it, it’s not impossible…”

In the eyes of the village chief, Lingyun Kingdom at its peak was the most powerful in the world!

This was a kind of pride that was rooted in the soul. All the land under the sky belonged to the king; all the people living in the land bounded by the shores were the king’s citizens. All living beings in the world, regardless of race or faction, submitted to that emperor!

If the tribulations of Lingyun Kingdom had not erupted and destroyed everything, perhaps the current Lingyun Kingdom would have reached an unimaginable level.

“It’s indeed unacceptable to belittle oneself.”

Feng Xia nodded in agreement and said calmly, “However, you also have to clearly see the difference between others and yourself. For example, the tomb of the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor… is just a cenotaph.”

The village chief’s pupils constricted.

Feng Xia continued, “There are at least a hundred similar tombs… everywhere.”

This was the information that Long Da had told him back then.

“There are more than a hundred… similar tombs?”

The village chief took a gulp and his Adam’s apple moved. He exhaled with difficulty and spoke using all his might.

At that moment just now, he could feel how horrifying this grave mound was. At its peak, Lingyun Kingdom might be able to build one using the strength of the entire country…

However, to have more than a hundred of them, that was an astronomical figure!

It was unattainable.

“Do you remember what I said back then?”

Feng Xia glanced at the grave, then his gaze fell back on the skeleton. His tone was meaningful, as if he had seen through thousands of years.

The village chief was in a daze.

This State Preceptor… What exactly did he say back then?

His memories were a little mixed up, making it difficult for him to recall what happened in the past.

Feng Xia did not notice that his words had caused the village chief to fall into chaotic thoughts, and even to doubt his own memories!

“Our enemies, our goals, have never been this world.”

He suddenly remembered what someone had said.

Feng Xia’s expression suddenly turned solemn. He raised his hand and pointed at the sky. His aura soared as he said slowly in a deep voice.

“We must look further into the future!”

“We have to see that beyond the world, above the sky, there is an even wider universe!”

“The State Preceptor said… Wait, State Preceptor, you mean… the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor came from beyond the heavens?”

The village chief finally realized something and asked in disbelief.

If what the State Preceptor said was true, why would such a terrifying existence be related to the Profound Origin World and Lingyun Kingdom? Why would his grave appear in the Profound Origin World?

Even if the grave in front of him was just a cenotaph!

“But don’t worry too much.”

Seeing how the village chief had lost his composure, Feng Xia shook his head with a smile and comforted him, “No matter how powerful he is, no matter how he shocked the world, the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor… he’s still dead.”

“You might not know this, but this grave of his… is the real culprit which changed the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in the Profound Origin World and plundered a lot of spiritual energy!”

His gaze eventually landed on the grave.

The initial reason why he had agreed to Mo Lianque’s request to come to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons…

“We’re going to dig up his grave!”
