C144

Originally, Ye Ling did not plan to stop at this point. However, at this moment, he could vaguely hear a roar coming from the canyon.

The sound was like that of a trapped beast, decisive and tragic.

"Hualala …"

A series of crisp sounds followed right after, like the sound of metal colliding with stone.

"Let's go down and take a look!"

A thought flashed across Ye Ling's mind, it was as though there was something he was waiting for in front of him.

What was it?

Who was making the noise here?

The idea was to do it.

Ye Ling gazed at Long Kong as he continued climbing down the canyon.

This canyon was extremely steep, up and down showing a 90 degree angle. Luckily, Ye Ling was skilled and stuck close to the cliff like a gecko.

The smoke was still thick at first, but the further down the canyon they got, the thinner the smoke became.

The entire canyon was deeper than Ye Ling had imagined. It was at least a thousand meters deep. Ye Ling climbed for quite a while before reaching the bottom.

"Crack …" When Ye Ling's foot stepped on the ground, he heard a crisp sound, as if something was crushed under his foot.

Ye Ling lowered his head to look and saw a pile of bones. He had been lying here quietly for who knows how many years.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know. Brother, don't die here next time." Ye Ling muttered to himself and casually glanced at the crowd.

In an instant, his expression turned strange, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

Ye Ling's body stiffened. He felt as if someone had lifted the top of his head, causing his scalp to go numb.

Because in front of him, there was only a vast expanse of whiteness.

Not snow, not frost, but... White bones!

That's right! At this moment, the scene in front of Ye Ling was completely filled with white bones! Countless bones!

These bones belonged to humans and demons. They were extremely strange and of all sizes.

The postures of the corpses varied, but without exception, they were all neatly arranged together.

It was as though … It was like an orderly army that had been completely annihilated by a sudden disaster!

This was an extremely tragic scene! White bones paved the way everywhere.

Even though Ye Ling had seen countless battles, he couldn't help but to keep his emotions in check when he saw such a scene.

Ye Ling walked along the pile of bones. In the deepest part of the canyon, more and more bones appeared. They were like an ocean, and the bones in the distance had all dried up to the same color.

In the depths of the canyon, Ye Ling's heart shook as a figure seemed to be leaning on the cliff.

Only when he entered the room did he see that it was indeed a human figure. However, he did not rely on the sheer cliff, but had been tightly shackled by the thick iron chain.

It was an azure-brown humanoid creature.

The reason why it was said that they were humanoids and not humans was because Ye Ling could tell from their bones that they were not human beings.

A vast and terrifying aura surged out from his body. This person did not appear very robust, but instead had a kind of lean feeling.

His body was a greenish brown, and he had a handsome face. His long green hair was more than a hundred feet long, and just the fact that it was scattered on the ground made him look extremely strange.

His eyes were slightly closed, as if he was in deep sleep. A sinister and boundless aura radiated from him.

At this moment, Ye Ling finally understood why the roars he heard when he was at the edge of the cliff sounded so similar to the sounds of metal colliding with stone.

The sound of metal colliding with stone was most likely the sound of the azure figure dragging the iron chain.

Who was this person? Why were they trapped here?

The questions lingered in Ye Ling's mind, but he did not act rashly. This person was most likely not dead. There was a high chance that he was an important figure in the ancient times. If he were to awaken, it would be very troublesome.

Right at this moment, the azure figure suddenly opened his eyes. His two pupils were a ghostly blue that emitted a strange luster.

"This is bad!" Ye Ling's mind exploded as if something had exploded in his heart. He subconsciously wanted to leave quickly, but what made him despair was that his body seemed to have been immobilized, unable to move at all.

Suddenly, Ye Ling's entire body felt like it was being seen through.

The feeling was so intense that it was a hundred times stronger than when Yang Huang controlled the soul search the other day.

Obviously, this cyan man was much stronger than Yang Huang.

Even though he was trapped, he still possessed endless power.

"Humans …" The green person's lips slightly parted as he spoke out three hoarse words. His eyes were filled with disgust.

"In ten years, you're the first human to come here …" The green-robed man continued speaking as his gaze shot into Ye Ling's Dantian.

Ye Ling wanted to say something at this moment. Unfortunately, he was unable to do so. It was as if his soul had been snatched away by someone. Right now, his soul could not control his body to do anything.

Buzz buzz … The eighty divine seals suddenly began to glow with golden light, seeming to resist the spying of the azure figure.

"Interesting." The corners of the green person's mouth curled up, and then he started spouting mantra!

Deceit!

This was a strange syllable that was difficult to understand. With just a single syllable, the golden light in Ye Ling's dantian was immediately blasted apart! Following which, that gaze continued onwards, as though it wanted to pry into Ye Ling's source energy.

At this moment, a sense of danger arose in Ye Ling's heart, as if he was facing death.

Buzz buzz … A clear ray of light shot out. It was the same Water Pattern Realm as before. The green light shone on the green person's body.

This time, the green person did not fall into a hallucination. Instead, his eyes were attracted by the green light, and he seemed to be communicating with it.

Ye Ling, who was in the Water Pattern Realm, seemed to be explaining something as both of them expressed their thoughts in a manner that Ye Ling did not understand.

"Phew …" After three seconds, the cyan person finally withdrew his gaze. Ye Ling, on the other hand, was like a fish that had entered the deep sea as he let out a deep sigh of relief.

This azure human figure was too terrifying. It was likely that he was already standing at the peak of the lower realms. Even a Spiritual Martial Force expert was just a small ant in front of him.

After withdrawing his gaze, the Water Mark Realm cultivator returned to the center of Ye Ling's brows.

At this moment, the green-clothed man was sizing up Ye Ling. However, his previously aggressive gaze was now completely different. His gaze was extremely complicated.

Three levels of scrutiny, three levels of doubt, three levels of disgust, and a level of inexplicable emotion.

"Senior, I'm passing by this place …." Ye Ling wanted to say something but hesitated. If he knew that this cyan man was so powerful, he wouldn't have come down here. Curiosity killed the cat.

"Don't go yet." The green person seemed to know what Ye Ling was going to say. He coldly laughed and said, "Do you believe that if you take even half a step, I can kill you immediately. Even if you are protected by the Water Pattern Realm, it is useless."

He knew the Water Pattern Realm!

Ye Ling's heart skipped a beat. However, when he thought about the possibility that this cyan person was an expert from the Ancient Battlefield, he felt relieved.

"Senior, I wonder what matter senior has?" Ye Ling was embarrassed. He was not used to staying in front of an expert for too long.

If the other party didn't want to kill him now, who knew if he would do so in the future?

His life must be in his hands.

"Since the Water Mark Realm has recognized you as its master, you will naturally be fated to be part of the demon race. However, there is something on your body that I don't like. You must give it to me for me to destroy, otherwise, I will not let you go today." The azure man said in a hoarse voice.

"Something?" "What is it?" Ye Ling was stunned, he could not think of anything on his body that could cause this horrifying guy's displeasure.

This fellow was not Jing Wuming.

The war between the ancient humans and demons lasted for a very long time, over ten thousand years.

Among them, the battle that lasted for tens of thousands of years was the most intense. The two most powerful formations appeared at the same time and the war continued. However, ever since the Qilin image was destroyed, humans had always held the upper hand.

It wasn't until five hundred years ago when the Monster race and the human race had engaged in a great battle that the human race's status was finally established.

Jing Wuming was a 500-year-old character, but the green person in front of him was clearly much older than him. Who knew what kind of ancient demon race artifact he was.

Ye Ling was very clear that the entire Lower Realms were filled with experts. Spiritual Martial Force cultivators were nothing in front of the true Omnipotent Experts.

Suddenly, a thought flashed across Ye Ling's mind.

Could it be that the object that even this old relic was afraid of was the painting of a Thousand Mountains and Rivers?

That's right! Even so, this was probably the only explanation left!

Ye Ling's most powerful magical equipment consisted of three items. Amongst them, the Natal Opening Armor and Buddha Bead could already be determined to belong to the Upper Realm. Thus, there was only one remaining — the Thousand Autumn Mountain and River Diagram.

However, the Thousand Autumn Mountain and River Diagram was Ye Ling's cultivation foundation. If he were to give it up, his cultivation base would definitely descend to the late stage of the Black Tortoise.

How could he hand it over?

However, if he didn't hand it over, he would be struck by lightning.

Should he rather die than submit, or should he learn gecko techniques to save his life with a broken tail?

With Ye Ling's appearance of weighing the pros and cons, the green armored man was clearly impatient.

"How is it, have you decided? "Hurry up and hand it over, or else I'll kill you and still be able to get the item. Don't think that I won't kill you just because you're the Water Pattern's host. After so many years of searching, even if the host doesn't have a hundred, the number will at least reach eighty …" The green man muttered to himself.

"What host?" Ye Ling was taken aback.

"You don't need to know." The green person seemed to realize that he had leaked information and said fiercely, "Brat, I will only give you three seconds to think about it."

"Three... Two... "One …"

"Wait!" Ye Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, your time is too short, you don't even have the time to think about it."

"Kid, you want to play tricks on me?" The green person laughed and stretched out his palm. The thick chain behind him shook until it made a crisp sound!

Bang! The huge chain looked like it was connected to the heavens, the purple heavenly lightning touching the chain, lightning immediately flashed chaotically, making the cyan man cry out loudly from the electric shock.

"Land Pressure!" I will make you die a horrible death! "

The green man cursed loudly.
