"Big brother, is this broken sword a divine artifact?" the Devouring Rat asked, its eyes wide.
Lu Li nodded: "Yes, that's right, this is indeed a primordial divine artifact!"
"Wow, a divine artifact! We're rich! Boss, let me refine it!" The Devouring Rat's eyes lit up.
Lu Li's lips twitched. This guy was so greedy it was utterly insane! Lu Li slapped the Devouring Rat on the head!
"What are you thinking? This is a divine artifact of innate power! Aren't you afraid of overeating it and dying?"
Although this sword is damaged, it is still a divine artifact, and its value is immeasurable!
If it could be restored in the future, its value... would be immeasurable!
"Well……"
After being reprimanded by Lu Li, the Devouring Rat dared not say another word and obediently stood aside.
Then, Lu Li glanced at the broken sword and put it away.
“Nanhua, can you see anything amiss?” Lu Li turned around and asked.
“This seems to be an ancient battlefield…” Nan Hua said, his expression growing increasingly grave as he carefully observed his surroundings.
It seems that a fierce and extremely brutal battle once took place here.
On this wasteland, there are many corpses, as well as the skeletons of many ferocious beasts and monsters.
"Moreover, the malevolent energy remaining on these corpses is extremely concentrated!"
"We must have stumbled upon the ruins of some ancient battlefield..."
After Nan Hua finished speaking, he looked into the distance, a hint of apprehension flashing deep in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but gasp.
Ancient battlefield?
No wonder so much malevolent energy remains on this wasteland, and even the corpses of many demonic beasts and spirit beasts are covered with a thick wisp of malevolent energy. It turns out that this is an ancient battlefield ruin!
What does the ancient battlefield signify?
That is the burial ground of powerful beings who have fallen, a place where gods and demons from all heavens are buried, and where countless ages have passed.
The two people and the rat slowly walked forward, continuing their search for an opportunity.
This ancient battlefield was even larger than Lu Li had imagined. It took them three whole days to gradually leave the battlefield.
"Big brother! I...I sensed the aura of my ancestor!" The Devouring Rat suddenly said to Lu Li in a trembling voice.
"What? The aura of your ancestor? Are you sure?" Lu Li's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked.
The ancestor of the Devouring Rat was the only one in this lineage to reach the Quasi-Saint level.
Back then, he was only half a step away from becoming a saint.
But later, no one knew where he went; it was as if he had suddenly disappeared.
Even the Devouring Sky Rat clan doesn't know where their ancestor went.
Since then, the Devouring Sky Rat lineage has never produced a Quasi-Saint level expert again, and very few have been able to step into the Immortal Realm.
It can be said that the Three Rats are the most powerful beings in the Devouring Rat lineage today.
"It's true!" the Devouring Rat said firmly.
The aura of my ancestors was faintly emanating from them!
The Devouring Rat was in high spirits. If his ancestor was still alive, it would be incredibly good news for his lineage!
"In that case, let's hurry up and go find it." Lu Li was also a little excited.
The Devouring Rat transformed into a streak of light and charged out first.
Lu Li and Nan Hua followed closely behind, quickly chasing after the Devouring Sky Rat.
Soon after, a peculiar energy fluctuation suddenly appeared ahead.
This energy fluctuation is similar to spiritual consciousness fluctuation, and also resembles the fluctuation of the primordial spirit.
"This is it!" the Devouring Rat's voice rang out.
Lu Li looked up and saw an ancient and weathered altar floating in the distance. The altar was cast in bronze and engraved with various patterns.
These patterns were extremely complex and contained some kind of mystery, which Lu Li couldn't understand at all, but he could clearly feel that the energy fluctuations emanating from the altar were extremely powerful.
"What is that thing?" Lu Li was shocked.
The Devouring Rat shook his head, but he did indeed sense the aura of his ancestor, which emanated from that altar.
"Let's go over there!"
Immediately, the Sky-Devouring Rat took the lead and sped towards the altar.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the edge of the altar.
Lu Li glanced at it a few times but didn't find anything unusual. However, the altar gave off a very strange feeling, as if some terrifying creature was sleeping there.
"Big brother! I can feel it!" The Devouring Rat exclaimed excitedly, staring at the altar.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Lu Li asked, puzzled.
“I can feel the aura of my ancestors emanating from this altar,” the Devouring Rat explained.
"My ancestors are at the bottom of this altar!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Li's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart pounded even faster!
He never expected that the ancestor of the Sky-Devouring Rat was actually under this altar.
Just then, a huge fluctuation suddenly came from the altar, and the entire altar seemed to be undergoing a violent change!
Immediately afterwards, a black chain broke through the altar and emerged, wrapping around the Devouring Rat with astonishing speed!
"Whoosh—" The Devouring Rat reacted quite quickly and immediately used its abilities to resist!
However, these black chains were extremely terrifying. The moment the Devouring Rat touched the black chains, its whole body froze and it could not move.
Seeing this, Lu Li acted without hesitation!
In an instant, a long spear appeared in his hand and thrust it straight at the black chain!
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion resounded through the void, and a terrifying force unleashed a raging storm that swept across the surrounding area.
