"Oh? Then what about these human race corpses?"
Xiao Wujin sneered.
Did everyone think they were fools?
Indeed, there was a possibility of encountering such situations on the Myriad Races Battlefield, but among these corpses, many were clearly from the human race. Were the powerful figures of the human race also part of the battles on the Myriad Races Battlefield?
Ji Tianyao's expression changed slightly as he said in a low voice, "There are indeed some individuals from the human race among them, but they are all people who secretly allied with the Demon Tribe, or even those who were enslaved by the Demon Tribe. Currently, the human race is in disarray, and all major forces have spies, including our Ancient Realm. The Demon Tribe has also been attempting to invade. Many of these corpses appear to be from the human race, but some of them have actually been possessed by powerful Demon Tribe experts, while others have defected to the Demon Tribe."
"Our Ji Family, as a force of the human race, how could we possibly kill our own people? It would be too much to pin such a crime on our Ji Family," Ji Tianyao declared solemnly.
"Why be so nervous, Ji Ancestor? I was just asking," Xiao Wujin replied coldly.
How ridiculous.
These were all spies of the Demon Tribe, and some had been possessed by the Demon Tribe. Did they not find it amusing? How did the Ji Family manage to find so many spies of the Demon Tribe on the Myriad Races Battlefield?
Moreover, assuming these people were indeed spies of the Demon Tribe, why did the Ji Family not directly execute them on the battlefield and instead bring them back to their own family's forbidden area to imprison them?
This was clearly illogical.
Of course, at this moment, Xiao Wujin couldn't be bothered to debate further with Ji Tianyao and simply looked deep into the Hell Mountain.
This Hell Mountain was extremely peculiar, filled with a special chaos aura that evoked an inexplicable feeling in them, the ancient clan members. Additionally, within the deepest part of this mountain, there seemed to be a powerful force concealed, piquing his curiosity.
The group continued deeper.
Along the way, they encountered more and more corpses within this Hell Mountain prison.
Some of these corpses were relatively fresh; although they had turned to bones, from their aura, it was highly likely they belonged to those who had fallen in the past ten thousand years.
Others had an extremely ancient aura, upon rough perception, they might have existed for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years.
Some corpses were incredibly ancient, riddled with holes, reduced to mere bone fragments, making it impossible to discern their age; they possibly came from ancient times.
These numerous corpses spread throughout the Hell Mountain prison sent chills down many people's spines.
Because any corpse that had remained intact and not turned to ashes must have belonged to a venerable-level figure; even a saint master, in this Hell Mountain, would have long turned to ashes.
How many lives had the Ji Family imprisoned here?
Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable's expression grew serious as he carefully examined the situation, trying to discern some clues from these corpses.
The number of corpses here was too vast, far exceeding what a normal family's dungeon would hold. Moreover, many of the bodies belonged to ten thousand clans, including large avian remains that were hill-sized and giant-like skeletons.
Although their races were unclear, they were by no means from the human race; they could only be hunted on the Myriad Races Battlefield.
Why did the Ji Family not kill these people directly on the battlefield but instead brought them back here to imprison them?
Was it truly just due to some peculiar habits of the Ji Family, or were there other reasons?
Lost in thought, Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable frowned and analyzed, but within this Hell Mountain, the aura was extremely obscure and cold. The Yin Fire power continued to erode his senses. Even a powerful figure like Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable could not discern anything.
