Qin Chen squinted and said, “Now that many powerful great emperors have gathered in the Underworld, relying only on us few, even with the help of many undead from the Undead Kingdom, it’s impossible to withstand the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor and the others. The urgent task is still to enter this core area first…” After speaking, Qin Chen turned his head to look at the pitch-black core area.
“Boss, you can go in, but what about us?” Little Dragon said anxiously.
Mo Li glanced at Little Dragon speechlessly. Qin Chen had the Chaotic World on him; was this little guy scared silly?
Sure enough, Qin Chen also looked at him speechlessly. He raised a hand, and with a whoosh, the Sun God Turtle, Little Dragon, Prison Dragon Great Emperor, and Mo Li were instantly drawn into the Chaotic World.
“Let’s go.”
Qin Chen took a step forward and suddenly entered the void rift.
In an instant, terrifying void rifts continuously struck Qin Chen’s body. Qin Chen immediately urged the power within him to counteract them. Within the Chaotic World, Mo Li and the others clearly saw that the void breath striking against Qin Chen was immediately repelled by the power on him. Apart from leaving behind traces of blood, it basically didn’t inflict any fatal damage on Qin Chen.
“This guy Qin Chen…” Mo Li shook his head, wanting to say something but ultimately said nothing. Under Qin Chen’s swift movement, after just a moment, the dark area ahead grew closer. Suddenly, Qin Chen felt waves of dense undead reincarnation aura surrounding his body, and the next moment, he discovered that the void breath beside him had completely disappeared.
And he had already arrived at the front of this dark place.
“Is this the source of the River of the Undead?”
Qin Chen raised his head to look at the dark area ahead.
“That is…”
When Qin Chen saw the things within that dark area, he was completely stunned.
What kind of scene was this? Before his eyes was a world resembling a bottomless abyss, where numerous pitch-black statues floated. These statues were densely packed, exuding a sense of death aura. This death aura was extremely peculiar, giving a feeling of gloom, yet their bodies were vividly lifelike, almost as if they were once powerful beings that had fallen and turned into fossils.
These statues of deceased powerful beings floated silently in the dim and tranquil void, emanating a terrifying imperial aura. Each statue’s aura was not the slightest bit weaker than that of a strong figure like the Prison Dragon Great Emperor.
Among them, a few even gave Qin Chen the impression that they were close to the Emperor of the Underworld, a peak great emperor.
What puzzled Qin Chen was that he faintly sensed a familiar feeling from these statues, as if he had felt something similar somewhere before.
“Why do I feel a sense of familiarity with these statues? What is this aura…?”
Qin Chen focused intently.
The aura emitted from these statues was somewhat similar to those undead he had seen before, a very distinct undead aura, evidently born from the River of the Undead.
But upon closer examination, it was not completely identical; it was somewhat closer to Ning Muyao’s aura, as her aura was clearly different from other undead.
“Strange.”
Qin Chen was puzzled in his heart. Could these statues be the undead that had fallen in this Undead Kingdom? After their death, their bodies turned into fossils, floating in this serene and dark world, guarding the source of the River of the Undead?
But why did the aura emanating from these statues subtly differ from that of those undead, instead…
Qin Chen furrowed his brows. The aura from these statues inexplicably gave him a sense of familiarity, but he couldn’t recall where he had seen it before.
“Where have I seen this undead aura? I must have seen it before; otherwise, I wouldn’t have this feeling. Where is it?”
Qin Chen stared hard at these statues, racking his brain. Before he could figure it out, Mo Li's voice suddenly appeared in his ear.
