Chapter 342: Ashes To Ashes, Dust To Dust
Upon seeing Wei Huo’s shadow, Kalan could not help but sigh. “Is this just an obsession? What a pity. If you were still alive, I could have defeated you myself.”
Wei Huo did not react. The shadow above his head stood there quietly.
Kalan said, “Alright, I’ll personally dispel the obsession. The legend of the Divine Tomb should be broken, and the obsessions of the ancestors should dissipate.”
After he said that, Kalan’s domain spread out. He clenched his fists and stared at Wei Huo’s shadow. “I’m pressing forward without fear. This is my Dao!”
He took a step forward and slashed open the aura of death with his domain. He then raised his fist to attack Wei Huo’s shadow. He wanted to end the legend left behind by Wei Huo.
Kalan threw a punch forward. Instantly, the surrounding aura of death surged wildly and Wei Huo’s shadow became more solid.
As soon as Kalan arrived in front of Wei Huo’s shadow, Wei Huo’s shadow extended a finger. An endless aura of death gathered on his finger. This was the Finger of Death. The finger, which carried an endless aura of death, collided with Kalan’s fist.
In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color. The ground vibrated, and the remaining air was blown away. Dust spread out in circles, and the tombstones in the graveyard were all shattered.
This was a battle between Legendary creatures. The consequences would be catastrophic.
Kalan’s expression was ugly. He had not expected to be blocked by a dead person. They were both at the peak of the Legendary stage. Why was he so powerful?
Kalan said, “I’ve never been defeated since I was born. Senior, don’t blame me for being disrespectful!”
After saying that, Kalan raised his aura to its peak. He was going to launch the most powerful attack. He would not hesitate to destroy the graveyard or Wei Huo’s corpse!
He rushed forward, but Wei Huo’s shadow only pointed a finger. That finger carried an endless aura of death. The aura of death collided with Kalan and triggered an earth-shattering explosion.
Kalan was pushed back dozens of meters by this attack. His face was filled with disbelief as he said, “How is this possible? I was actually blocked by a dead person?”
Kalan could not believe his eyes. He had never been defeated before. Every enemy had always been defeated by him. However, he had been blocked by a dead man today.
Kalan did not believe it. He shouted, “Eat this! Overlord Fist!”
He then charged toward Wei Huo again…
Outside the volcano, many people from the Skyfall Race were looking at the volcano nervously. There had been intense sounds of battle and terrifying domain fluctuations before. A few late-stage Legendary creatures were secretly shocked. Fortunately, they had not entered rashly. If even a peak Legendary creature had gone through so much trouble, wouldn’t they die if they entered?
Someone said, “Kalan is already at the peak of the Legendary stage. Why is it so difficult for him to do this?”
Someone replied, “5,000 years have passed. The aura of death there is even stronger. It seems like even peak Legendary creatures will find it difficult to barge in!”
A late-stage Legendary creature said, “However, as expected of peak Legendary creatures, the Divine Tomb shouldn’t be able to stop Kalan.”
13,000 years had passed. The Skyfall Race had gone from being united to getting fractured into different factions that fought their own battles. There were hundreds of small countries and big countries. After Wei Huo’s death, the Skyfall Race had been embroiled in war. It could be said that this was the most chaotic period.
Someone asked, “Why are you so obsessed with the Phantom Staff and the giant snake’s corpse? If you were not, we could have crossed the void long ago.”
An old man from the Skyfall Race said, “The Phantom Staff is not a simple level-six Divine Artifact. This Divine Artifact has one of the greatest uses. It can automatically sense the location of other Divine Artifacts within a certain range. In the past, the Skyfall Race destroyed a civilization in order to obtain this Divine Artifact!”
Everyone was amazed. Being able to sense the location of other Divine Artifacts meant that they could obtain more and more Divine Artifacts as long as they had this Phantom Staff.
In this day and age, when myths did not exist, the more artifacts a civilization had, the stronger it was.
As everyone was talking, the sounds of battle on top of the volcano disappeared. Peace was restored there. Everyone started guessing if Kalan had made it through. Had he succeeded?
Someone said, “If he really succeeds, the internal strife of the Skyfall Race will probably end there.”
Everyone nodded. Although the late-stage Legendary creatures were indignant, there was nothing they could do.
Soon, they saw Kalan walk down from the top of the volcano.
He was seriously injured!
Everyone was amazed. Who had injured him?
Kalan clutched his chest as blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. His steps were a little clumsy, and his body was very unstable. However, his aura was rising steadily. A terrifying peak Legendary pressure was emitted, and all the Skyfall Race knelt on one knee.
Kalan said loudly, “I want to lead a few late-stage Legendary people into the Divine Tomb in 50 years. Anyone who is willing to lend me a hand will be rewarded with a Divine Artifact after entering the Divine Tomb in 50 years. At the same time, when I unite the Skyfall Race, they will obtain power and status inferior only to one person!”
Everyone was silent. They all knew that Kalan had not succeeded. The dangers of the Divine Tomb were obvious. Who would be willing to sacrifice their life to take on this challenge?
After saying that, Kalan left. A few days later, he sent another message. He said that he had obtained an ancient array formation. If he could gather 12 late-stage Legendary creatures, they would be enough to resist a Mythical creature. As for those who would help him, part of the giant snake’s corpse at the bottom of the volcano would be included in the reward.
This news finally moved many late-stage Legendary creatures. The corpse of the Mythical snake was very attractive to everyone, as they wanted to know what the secrets of the Mythical stage were. Only then would they have a chance to enter the Mythical stage.
Some people joined Kalan, which made him very happy. Not only did he selflessly teach them the ancient array formation, but he also kept explaining how he had reached the peak of the Legendary stage. This benefited everyone greatly.
Fifty years later, Kalan led 12 late-stage Legendary experts to the volcano again and climbed the mountain to the Divine Tomb.
Many graves had been destroyed during the previous battle. Over 13,000 years had passed, and the skeletons of the experts had been destroyed by time. The only thing that had not changed was Wei Huo, who was sitting cross-legged there.
Another shadow appeared above Wei Huo’s head when he saw them enter the Divine Tomb.
The 12 late-stage Legendary creatures looked at each other. Kalan had not mentioned anything about the previous battle. At that moment, they knew that Kalan had been blocked off by a dead person.
Upon seeing Wei Huo, Kalan shouted, “Array!”
The 12 late-stage Legendary creatures immediately formed an array formation. A fiery-red array formation instantly appeared. This array formation was very powerful and it gave them endless confidence.
Kalan sneered, “It’s been 13,000 years. You’ve been here long enough. Today, it’s time for ashes to go to ashes and dust to go to dust!”
