Chapter 399: The Gods’ Graveyard

When Li Xiang’s gaze landed on it, he suddenly felt the Divine Power in his body move. His eyes were covered with a layer of golden light, and the words on the stone tablet seemed to come to life instantly. The meaning of the words was immediately understood.

“The Gods’ Graveyard!”

“The Gods’ Graveyard?!”

Those two words reverberated in Li Xiang’s mind, and he was shaken.

He didn’t think that that place was really a large tomb. However, it wasn’t the tomb left behind by the world’s ancestors he imagined. Instead, it was the divine tomb of a true God.

However, the person who set up the tombstone wasn’t the owner of the divine tomb. Instead, it was another true God. The purpose of leaving behind the tombstone was to warn those who entered the place. The divine tomb contained enormous dangers, and it was forbidden to enter.

Li Xiang thought to himself. The true God who had set up the tombstone here probably did not have good intentions.

If he really wanted to restrict others from entering, with a true God’s strength, he could completely seal that place. Why would he need to set up a tombstone here and tell everyone that a true God was buried here?

Moreover, wasn’t a God immortal? Had that God fallen? What happened? He actually made a graveyard for himself?

There were too many doubts, and the place was filled with dense fog. Li Xiang couldn’t understand it at the moment.

But one thing was sure. If that place really buried the true God, then that true God must be an existence who had already agglomerated divinity.

And divinity represented all the Laws and priesthood that true God had mastered. Not to mention common Transcendents, even other true Gods coveted it. How could they just let it go?

“There’s probably some other hidden reason behind this! Why does this water feel like it’s bottomless!”

Li Xiang blinked his eyes, and the golden light in his eyes instantly disappeared.

Ye Qiu looked at the words on the stone tablet and muttered to himself, “Why do I feel like these words are somewhat similar to the legendary divine text? But I’ve never seen a real divine text. I’ve only heard the description, so I can’t be sure!”

Li Xiang didn’t think Ye Qiu would be so experienced and knowledgeable. He actually almost recognized the divine text.

“What should we do now? We don’t even know the words on it!”

“What’s the point of caring so much? Let’s see if there’s any other way out first. I have yet to see many treasures on this treasure hunt, but I’ve encountered many dangers. I don’t know if I’ll be able to gain anything this time!”

“Hey, look, I’ve found a passage here.” Someone suddenly shouted.

Li Xiang looked at that person and frowned slightly.

That was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties, a hot-blooded age, but he still felt that that young man was too enthusiastic.

In a place like that, where everyone came to search for treasures, instead of hiding and exploring alone when he found clues and benefits, he shouted and caused a ruckus. That was really against common sense.

However, at that moment, the others had already been attracted, so he followed them.

Everyone saw that in the darkness, there was a narrow mountain path winding down the mountain.

It was as if they could descend the mountain by following that mountain path.

Some of the impatient ones had already stepped onto it. After carefully exploring for more than a hundred meters, they walked away without saying a word.

When the others saw that, they immediately scrambled to take the path.

The young man who had discovered the path was smiling and waiting at the side. He did not seem to be anxious at all.

Li Xiang’s eyes gleamed. He came to that person’s side and asked, “You are really generous. After discovering such a clue, you actually directly announced it. Your selflessness is truly admirable.”

When that young man heard that, the smile on his face slightly stiffened. Only then did he bitterly smile and say, “You suspect I have ulterior motives! However, it’s also true. This is also human nature. But what you don’t know is my strength is really too low. Once I discover something, I naturally have to let more people know. It’s enough that I can follow behind and pick the leftovers. I absolutely don’t dare to be greedy!”

Li Xiang did not believe a single bit of that fellow’s words and said indifferently, “Although I don’t know why you are doing this, there is definitely a reason for you to do so. However, I can only temporarily let you accompany me for our safety.”

After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed. On his fingertip was a light agglomerated from two-colored Divine Power.

When the young man saw that, his expression instantly changed. His body moved, and with a whoosh, he jumped directly off the cliff’s edge. His body instantly transformed into a black shadow and disappeared. His speed was so fast that it was hard to believe.

Li Xiang’s expression darkened. Just a moment ago, he had wanted to wait until he had subdued that person before using the Probing skill to investigate so as not to alarm the other party.

After all, when the Probing skill would be detected when it was used to probe other people’s information, so he did not use it in advance.

However, though he was already so cautious, the other party could still escape the instant he made his move. His strength was definitely not to be underestimated.

Alice and Alicia also did not expect such a seemingly harmless person to hide so deeply.

Just the evasive action earlier was so fast that they almost did not react in time.

If that happened in a life-and-death battle, it would instantly create a huge threat. They would either be dead or crippled.

“Country Lord! What should we do?”

Li Xiang said indifferently, “Since the other party led us here, he must have his motive. Now that we look at it, we seem to have become a piece of fat meat. But if he wants to eat us, he must see if he has the ability to!”

After saying that, he glanced at the narrow mountain path hidden in the darkness and said, “Let’s go. Since we’re already here, we’ll play his game to the end.”

Then, he turned around and said to his subordinates, “Alice and Alicia stay behind. The rest of you, enter the Tower of Stars and await my orders!”

“Yes!”

Li Xiang waved his hand, and those people instantly disappeared. They were brought into the Tower of Stars and stayed with the Human army of 100,000 people in the Seven-colored Gourd Vine World.

That world was full of spiritual energy. Birds were chirping, flowers were fragrant, and the space was large. It was a good place.

Li Xiang walked down the winding mountain path as he thought, “After I came here, I didn’t find any enemies, and no one knew me. So maybe the young man who appeared out of nowhere wasn’t targeting me alone, but everyone?”

“But who is this person? What’s his purpose?”

Li Xiang didn’t take that path lightly just because many people had already walked ahead.

The mountain road was extremely narrow, and only one person could walk on it. On one side was a cliff, and on the other was a bottomless abyss.

Just by looking at the side with the abyss, one could only see a dark area, like a devil’s mouth waiting to be fed.

“Whoosh!”

Suddenly, a cold wind appeared strangely from the cliff’s direction and landed on Li Xiang’s neck.

Li Xiang’s expression changed slightly. He activated the Qiankun Jin in his body, and his body emitted a layer of golden light.

“Ah-”

Suddenly, a shrill scream sounded in his ear.

Then, he saw a grey ghost shadow behind him dissipate under the golden light.
