"Are these seventy-two giant stone eggs the seventy-two sealed demons of Hell?"
Standing before the 'stone egg', Sun Fei and the Necromancer felt as insignificant as ants. Looking up, they were filled with awe, their tongues and throats going dry, words failing to express their inner thoughts.
It took them quite a while to regain their senses.
"Separate and observe. If you find anything, don't act rashly. Inform us immediately."
After discussing it, the two decided to split up.
Sun Fei's mind flashed, and he slowly approached the center of the space.
The closer you get, the more you can feel the grandeur and terror of that 'stone egg'.
These enormous rocks were definitely not naturally formed. Sun Fei could sense that on their surfaces, there were two kinds of auras, one sacred and one evil, intertwined and vying for power. Both of these auras were filled with fragments of divine laws, and even the slightest leak of them could instantly kill a powerful expert at the Great Sun-Rank Venerable.
"A terrible place!"
As they passed the enormous stone eggs, surrounded by a terrifying aura, even Sun Fei, with his steely will forged through countless battles and having witnessed the inferno of the Diablo World, couldn't help but feel fear for a moment. It was as if the demons imprisoned within those stone eggs would break free and leap out to devour him at any moment.
Sun Fei remained highly vigilant, carefully maneuvering through the crowd.
Sudden--
"Oh my god, that's..."
At the very center of this group of 'stone eggs', a 'stone egg' whose size surpasses the sum of all the previous ones is slowly rotating and floating. Previously, due to obstructed vision, Sun Fei had not seen it.
If the surrounding stone 'eggs' are likened to subjects, then this enormous stone 'egg' is a high and mighty monarch, unapproachable. All the other stone 'eggs' slowly rotate and revolve around him, like loyal guards, surrounding the moon like stars, fiercely protecting their monarch.
Moreover, it is different from other 'stone dome'.
Its surface was not covered with a rough, uneven layer of dust, but was extremely smooth, flashing alternately with black and white flames, like an egg that was nurturing something, possessing an extremely clear life force. When Sun Fei approached in astonishment, he was shocked to discover that on the surface of this light egg, there were actually rings of red chains as thick as buckets wrapped around it—but because the light egg was so large, the red chains were as thin as hair in comparison, so he had not noticed them before.
"This is... Divine Runes, and Ancient Divine Runes at that!"
Sun Fei cautiously approached to observe, and was astonished to discover that the red chains were shimmering with palm-sized golden patterns, densely connected, forming Divine Runes containing divine power. The endless red chains, shimmering with divine light, wrapped and bound the enormous light egg layer by layer, constantly moving and shifting as if they were alive.
"Strange chains, red... what material are they made of? They must be extraordinary to bind this luminous egg."
Sun Fei couldn't resist reaching out to touch the strange red chain.
He wanted to find some clues from the material of the chains—having learned a lot about alchemy and materials science from the nun and Uncle Cain, Sun Fei was practically an expert. He could recognize even rare materials from the ancient era of gods and demons. Based on the material, he might be able to deduce which race and which power attribute master forged these red chains that shimmered with countless Divine Runes runes.
However, just as he was about to touch the chains, he suddenly noticed something and froze.
"This... it's not a solid material, but... a liquid... a red liquid... could it be... blood?!"
Sun Fei was stunned.
He was shocked to discover that these red chains, shimmering with golden Divine Runes, were not artifacts crafted by skilled artisans, but rather real blood—a stream of blood tightly linked together, forming a chain-like flow. Each drop of blood contained indescribable, immense energy and fragments of divine laws, possessing unparalleled sealing power, which tightly sealed the entire giant light egg.
"This blood... could it be the blood of a god?"
Sun Fei was completely numb with shock.
Legend has it that the blood of the gods possesses unfathomable power. Since these red chains are formed from blood, it is not surprising that they can seal demons. What truly shocked Sun Fei was that, according to the history of this mysterious sealed space, it has existed for at least tens of millions of years. In other words, this blood has existed for thousands of years. After thousands of years, it has not decayed and remains smooth, crystal clear, with distinct particles, shimmering with a bright luster.
From what incredible being did this blood flow?
Sun Fei circled the giant light egg for a while. Judging from the size of the light egg, the blood that sealed it must weigh at least a hundred tons. It was unbelievable that it had not decayed after thousands of years.
If it weren't for the concern that it might break the seal and release the terrifying demon sealed within, Sun Fei would almost have been tempted to take some of the blood back for research.
This is the blood of a god!
A single drop of this divine blood is far more precious than all the treasures of the Anzhi Empire combined, because it contains divine power and laws, hides the mysteries of gods, and also contains the secrets of becoming a god. With the terrifying research capabilities of the [ Madman's Laboratory ], it might be possible to use it to unlock the path to godhood, allowing Sun Fei to leap into becoming a god who looks down upon all living beings.
"These seventy-two giant eggs must be the seventy-two sealed Hell demons, and the largest one in the middle, a pristine giant egg of light, must be the king among the seventy-two Demon God. It is an absolutely terrifying existence. Once it breaks free, it will definitely be the end of the entire Azeroth Continent... Just thinking about it is enough to make one's heart flutter. But I wonder which god sealed them here thousands of years ago. If word had gotten out back then, the entire continent would probably have gone mad."
With his eyes closed, Sun Fei could almost hear the earth-shattering roars of battle echoing in his ears. Thinking back to those days, this battle must have been truly earth-shattering.
Just then, a startled cry rang in my ears.
Sun Fei's heart tightened.
That was the Necromancer's exclamation.
Had he encountered danger?
Second update.
