"Junior sister, you mean..."

"These remains are very likely from the two races during the Second Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth, namely the Great Calamity of the Lich King."

“Not bad.” Liu Ruyan nodded.

"If that's the case, why are these remains found in this ancient cave? Could the owner of this cave be connected to either of the two races?"

Fang Li frowned, a look of surprise and doubt flashing in his eyes.

What was the purpose of the owner of this ancient cave who placed the bones of the witch and demon races here?

Is it intended as a burial place for both races, or does it hold a deeper meaning?

"Could it just be a show-off?" Jiang Qingqing blinked and asked.

"....."

Fang Li and Liu Ruyan glanced at Jiang Qingqing, feeling somewhat amused and exasperated.

Who would have nothing better to do than store a huge pile of skeletons in their cave? Doesn't that feel creepy?!

"Just kidding."

Jiang Qingqing stuck out her tongue, then her expression turned serious. She said, "Judging from the strange situation here, I believe that the appearance of the corpses of the witch and demon races here must have been intentionally done by the owner of the ancient cave."

"Oh? What makes you say that?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Li and Liu Ruyan both looked at Jiang Qingqing.

"The person who could bring the remains of the Lich and Demon races here is no ordinary person. It is very likely that this is a smokescreen set up by the owner of this ancient cave, or a test."

"That's very true."

After a moment's thought, the two nodded in agreement.

So that's it.

Jiang Qingqing shrugged and said, "I think there must be a test set up by the ancient cave master here. We should be careful to avoid any mishaps."

Fang Li and Liu Ruyan wholeheartedly agreed.

The three then cautiously made their way through this strange place, keeping their eyes on all sides.

There are tricks and schemes everywhere in the world! They have to be extremely cautious.

In the southwestern region, not far from them.

The Demon Lord Chonglou and his entourage walked cautiously and steadily among the white bones of the Lich and Demon races.

These skeletons exuded an eerie aura.

They naturally noticed the karmic power entwined above them and became even more cautious.

"Demon Lord, if these corpses of the Lich and Demon races weren't entangled by this karmic power, they would be excellent materials for crafting demon puppets," the Demon Elder said, licking his dry lips.

Chonglou glanced at the stark white bones around him and said in a deep voice, "Don't be greedy. Our target is not these corpses."

"Be vigilant and proceed quickly."

"Yes, Lord Demon."

The demon elders responded in unison.

As the group ventured deeper, the number of stark white bones they encountered increased.

This place seemed to have become a resting place for the Lich and Demon races.

...

Meanwhile, more and more people arrived at the place, witnessing what appeared to be a fierce and brutal battle.

This caused mountains and rivers to break apart and dry up.

Only the cracked riverbed remained; the pavilions, towers, and magnificent palaces were all destroyed.

The air was no longer filled with ethereal energy, but rather with a chilling, deathly stillness.

The surrounding environment showed signs of decay.

This made the rogue cultivators and those from top-tier forces feel uneasy, and they cautiously stepped inside.

When they saw the corpses of the Lich and the Witch everywhere.

Some independent practitioners are unaware of the karmic forces entangled within them.

After learning that the remains were those of the Lich and Demon races.

Their eyes lit up; the remains of these ancient clans were top-tier materials for refining weapons.

Moreover, these are people from the witch and demon races.

They were all powerful immortals in their previous lives, and must have retained a great deal of knowledge about the laws of nature.

Even the cultivation techniques were incorporated into these corpses.

For any cultivator, comprehending the underlying principles would be a rare opportunity.

Any one of them could be considered a priceless treasure!

Driven by desire.

Many rogue cultivators reached out to snatch the corpses of the Lich and Demon races from the roadside.

Once someone takes the lead, it's like throwing a boulder into a tranquil lake, instantly creating a raging storm.

The independent cultivators no longer hesitated.

The tide surged toward the remains of the witch and demon races, as if they had spotted a priceless treasure.

Little did they know.

Those top powers, however, remained indifferent and watched coldly from the sidelines.

Go ahead and grab it.

One shot, and not a sound was uttered!

...

As expected, an unexpected change occurred—

Before the rogue cultivators who had just obtained the corpses could recover from their joy, the karmic power on the corpses began to erode their internal organs and meridians rapidly and silently, like a violent storm.

Even the area where the Purple Mansion is located was not spared.

In the blink of an eye.

Those rogue cultivators who managed to snatch the remains trembled violently and stood frozen in place like statues.

Inside its pupil.

Strands of red silk, like spiderwebs, spread out like a tide in an instant...

In the blink of an eye, even the whites of these rogue cultivators' eyes were swallowed up by a crimson glow!

Looking at them, they resemble a pair of terrifyingly red ghost eyes, sending chills down one's spine.

In an instant.

These rogue cultivators, having obtained the remains, launched a sudden attack on the surrounding cultivators like madmen.

And they exerted all their strength, just like a vicious wolf pouncing on its prey.

His first move was a deadly strike.

Caught off guard.

Many cultivators met with misfortune and died on the spot.

Moreover, the number of berserk cultivators continued to increase, all of them acting like madmen, and their attacks were like a storm.

In a short while, a fierce and bloody battle erupted in this treacherous place.

They knew all too well that the remains should not be touched.

The remaining rogue cultivators suddenly realized their mistake and hurriedly fled.
