Chen Xuan is framed by his elder brother and expelled from the family. According to clan rules, he must choose one wife and three concubines and head to the borderlands to expand the family line.
Whoosh!
The Yin-Yang Laws erupted, and Chen Xuan swung his sword through the air. The sword energy of the Yin-Yang Sword raged wildly and instantly struck the giant maggot king that was suppressed under the Yellow Spring Seal.
puff!
This giant maggot king, which was thousands of kilometers long, was cleaved in two by Chen Xuan, and then exploded into countless pieces with a "poof".
Various disgusting liquids burst open and flew in all directions, and the bursting liquids were still wriggling around, which was extremely disgusting.
Chen Xuan and the Emperor of Fengdu immediately dodged, otherwise, if even a drop of the exploding liquid hit them, the strong stench would linger for hundreds of years, making them extremely nauseous.
"I am now almost certain that this so-called Mystic Domain is the remains of the Mystic Venerable!"
The Yellow Spring Seal shrank and returned to the hands of the Fengdu Emperor, whose face was grim.
Now, they are on the corpse of a supreme being!
"It's only just gotten dark, and we've already encountered an Emperor-level creature. There are still seventy-two hours left in this long night. Who knows what we'll encounter next?"
Chen Xuan's gaze swept around.
He discovered that the maggots and bits of flesh that had been fried into pieces were actually wriggling rapidly and coming back together.
Judging from this situation, it looks like they're about to reunite.
Without saying a word, Chen Xuan immediately unleashed several sword energies.
Puff puff puff!
The fragments exploded again.
"Walk!"
They are planning to move to another location.
Just then, a deafening cry of an eagle suddenly rang out.
Although it was already night, Chen Xuan and the others could still see a huge shadow cast from the sky.
Chen Xuan looked up and saw a vulture circling in the air.
This vulture, with its wingspan, is over a thousand kilometers long!
If you didn't know better, you'd think this thing was a Kunpeng!
Clearly, the vulture had spotted them. Its eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and with a long cry, it swooped down.
Chen Xuan gripped his sword tightly, ready to kill it with a single strike!
However, he soon discovered to his surprise that the vulture's target was not them, but the maggots below that Chen Xuan had chopped into countless pieces.
Soon, the vulture's sharp beak devoured a huge chunk of flesh.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, whether it was the king of maggots that was thousands of kilometers long or the maggots that were only a few hundred kilometers long, all the bits of flesh were devoured by the vulture in a whirlwind!
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, the vulture turned back and glanced at Chen Xuan and the Emperor of Fengdu.
It didn't do anything; it just glanced at it, flapped its wings, and flew away.
"I thought this vulture would attack us, but I didn't expect it to hold back."
The Emperor of Fengdu raised an eyebrow; he had already prepared for a great battle.
"Follow this guy and see where it goes."
Chen Xuan pondered for a moment before speaking.
After all, they were in this godforsaken place, unfamiliar with the people and the roads.
This enormous vulture is clearly a native bird, and its strength is at the Emperor level. Following it around might lead to some discoveries.
Even if they don't find anything, it will still allow them to familiarize themselves with the terrain.
Vultures are incredibly fast; a single flap of their wings can cover hundreds of millions of kilometers.
Fortunately, Chen Xuan possessed spatial laws, allowing him to maintain a distance that was neither too close nor too far from it, keeping up with it.
Along the way, Chen Xuan and the Emperor of Fengdu followed the vulture for almost half of the Xuan Domain.
During this time, I witnessed several battles between monsters of Emperor-level power, such as a giant ape hundreds of kilometers long fighting a hairy four-legged monster.
It was either a snake-like monster, winding and twisting like a mountain range, gnawing on the head of a huge, unknown creature.
There are also various strange-looking ancient tribes fighting, battling, and devouring each other.
During this time, Chen Xuan saw this vulture, which was at the level of an emperor, attack several times and devour many monsters at the level of a god-king.
It has also attacked monsters of Emperor level, but unable to kill them, it immediately flapped its wings and ran away.
"I've noticed something: these monsters seem to become stronger after they kill and devour the flesh and blood of their opponents?"
The Emperor of Fengdu spoke in surprise.
"This place is like a battlefield, constantly breeding Gu poisons. The one that survives in the end is the Gu King. By consuming the other, it can become stronger."
"No wonder those below the Supreme level who enter the Profound Domain are in danger of perishing. We have already seen dozens of monsters at the Great Emperor level!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan nodded in agreement.
It must be said, this Xuan Domain is indeed terrifying.
Keep in mind that they hadn't even explored half the area, yet they had already spotted dozens of monsters at the Emperor level.
What about those monsters hiding in the ground? How many are there?
Furthermore, there are definitely monsters of near-supreme level in this place!
All I can say is that these monsters growing on the corpses of supreme beings are all incredibly powerful!
And now, only thirty-six hours have passed.
There are still thirty-six hours until dawn!
Why is that vulture flying back?
Chen Xuan and his group saw that after the vulture had hunted several more prey of the Great God Emperor level, it suddenly stopped flying forward and began to return along the same route.
Before turning back, it glanced ahead and showed a hint of fear.
Chen Xuan immediately followed its gaze and looked ahead.
That area was completely dark, without a single ray of light, like an abyss with no bottom in sight!
It was eerily quiet there.
It also gives people a sense of horror and terror.
This vulture is too scared to go in!
Whoosh!
Chen Xuan made his move, slashing directly at the vulture with his sword.
The terrifying sword energy instantly flashed a dazzling white light across the dark world.
The vulture's fur stood on end, and the instant it sensed the sword energy coming at it, it immediately turned to the side to dodge.
Nevertheless, dozens of its iron-hard black feathers were still severed by the sword energy.
"hiss--"
The vulture immediately stared intently at the direction from which the sword energy was coming, its gaze sharp and intense, its pupils seemingly spitting fire with rage.
The figures of Chen Xuan and the Emperor of Fengdu slowly materialized.
Chen Xuan smiled and said, "You ate the maggot king that I killed and didn't even say thank you. Isn't that a bit too impolite?"
He didn't intend to let the vulture go back. Moreover, Chen Xuan wanted to learn from the vulture what the dark land ahead was like and why even a Great Emperor-level demon beast would be afraid of it.
Chen Xuan's sword strike just now was merely a test; his aim was to hold it in place, not to harm it.
If Chen Xuanzhen wanted to hurt it, that sword strike would have cut off one of its wings instead of just a few feathers.
