Chapter 2010: Finding the Burial Chamber

Led by the baleful spirit, Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue continued forward. After a short while, they arrived at the site of a burial chamber.

The burial chamber was located inside a massive cave. The interior was several hundred square meters in area. Around the entrance, masses of white bones were piled up all around. The bones had all been turned to bone dust. However, one could still tell by their shape that these had been bones of giants.

Deep within the burial chamber, there was a casket. Like the one outside, this casket was also made from saint level materials.

Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue had only been able to get here successfully thanks to the baleful spirit leading the way. If it had only been the two of them, they would never have been able to find this place.

The terrain on this planet of death was extremely rugged. It was impossible to keep track of directions here, and no way of telling north from south. Only the baleful spirits, the area’s native residents, would have been able to find this place.

Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue stood on the outer edge, not willing to walk in carelessly. Qingfeng Li sensed that if this was indeed the tomb of the Yin-Yang Saint, there was definitely a terrible danger hidden here.

Qingfeng Li picked up a rib fragment and threw it inside. Just as it was about to reach the casket, a series of white ripples radiated from it.

The white ripples traveled at extreme speeds. In an instant, the white light had shot onto the pale bone fragment, reducing it to dust. The fine power scattered to the ground.

Qingfeng Li’s expression changed. “A saint level array,” he said. “The Yin-Yang Saint had set up a saint level array around his burial chamber. If we get close, we’ll be detected and attacked.”

Beside him, Linglong Xue’s expression also changed. “Then what do we do?” she said. “If we don’t decrypt the saint’s array, we’ll never be able to enter the cave.”

Qingfeng Li smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ve got a solution.”

Qingfeng Li could decrypt any array below the saint level, even those of the Semi-saint level. However, with his current level of spirit energy, he still couldn’t see through saint level arrays.

But Qingfeng Li had a solution. He had Dark Night Emperor with him, who had once been the Dark Night Saint before. Naturally, Dark Night Emperor could see the flaws in the saint level array before them.

Qingfeng Li contacted Dark Night Emperor’s soul. “Senior, lend me a hand,” he said. “Help me deactivate the Yin-Yang Saint’s defensive array.”

Dark Night Emperor nodded, as his soul floated out from Qingfeng Li’s long sword. Looking ahead at the burial chamber, his expression shifted.

Dark Night Emperor knew that, in the Ancient Ages, the Yin-Yang Saint had been the ruler of his own domain. His fame and influence had been on par with that of Dark Night Emperor himself.

However, the Yin-Yang Saint had later crossed a powerful Immortal and had been hunted down and slain. If it hadn’t been for that, it wouldn’t have been so easy to kill the Yin-Yang Saint.

Twin beams of black light shot from Dark Night Emperor’s eyes, lighting up heaven and earth. They shot into the cave before them and, after a short while, had located the defensive array’s points of weakness.

“At the third point, sixth point, ninth point, and twelfth point…” Dark Night Emperor recounted the locations of the weak spots in array inside the burial chamber to Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li smiled and thanked him. Then, he walked forward, activating the Dragon Blood within him. With waves of the dragon’s cry, his Dragon Blood roiled within him. Then, it flowed into his index finger, forming the Dragon Bone, then the Dragon Scale.

Qingfeng Li knew that, in order to deactivate this saint level array, he must use the power of the Dragon Bone. With his own fist techniques and attacks along, he would not be able to break through.

Qingfeng Li’s right forefinger jabbed forward, emitting a beam of white light. Traveling at extreme speeds, the light shot onto the defensive energy veil.

With a “Whoosh!” Qingfeng Li had pierced a large hole upon the third point of coalescence of the array. Immediately after, he also broke through the sixth point, ninth point, and twelfth point in sequence.

In just a short while, the powerful saint level defensive array was riddled with holes. It looked as though it was about to fall apart, like a partially burnt rag.

Finally, Qingfeng Li reached out with his index finger and, with a stirring motion, the saint level defensive array fell apart with a loud crack. The countless pieces scattered and disappeared.

A massive cave was revealed. Seeing this, Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue exchanged a glance. They both saw joy in the other’s eyes.

They knew that this cave must be where the Yin-Yang Saint meditated. Aside from his bones, it must also contain his legacy.

Together, Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue walked into the cave. Inside, the cave exuded a kind of Yin-Yang energy, half black and half white. The two types of light were able to tear open even the dimensional barrier.

Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue both activated their vital essences and created powerful defensive energy veils, protecting themselves from the Yin-Yang light.

Luckily for them, the Yin-Yang Saint had been dead for a hundred thousand years. That was the only reason they were able to withstand this saint level energy. If the Yin-Yang Saint had still been alive, there was no way Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue could have withstood it; they would have been shot full of holes by the Yin-Yang light long ago.

Even so, Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue felt strained under the pressure. The Yin-Yang light represented the Yin and Yang of the world. It was so powerful that this cave had been turned into a small world of its own. It was like a little mysterious realm.

Qingfeng Li activated the Immortal Chant in his body, emitting a pulling force. With a rumbling sound, golden light radiated from the surface of his body. At the same time, he activated his Mortal Purgatory Body, which emitted a black light of its own. The gold and black lights, interweaving with one another, held the Yin-Yang light at bay.

Not willing to be bested, Linglong Xue also channeled her mysterious technique. This technique was taught to her by the Blood Sea Monarch and it formed a blood-red light over the surface of her body. Like a roiling sea of blood that threatened to submerge the entire world, it collided with the Yin-Yang light. The two were evenly matched.

Qingfeng Li gave Linglong Xue a strange glance. He hadn’t expected the other’s technique to be so powerful.

Qingfeng Li thought to himself. This Blood Sea Technique had collided with the Yin-Yang light and was evenly matched. It had to be at least a saint level technique.

While Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue walked further into the cave, a black devilish figure flashed across the entrance of the cave. It was Huozhu Chi, under the control of the Great Devil.

Huozhu Chi glared into the cave, excitement flashing in his eyes.

“Who would have thought that, following Qingfeng Li, I would find the burial place of the Yin-Yang Saint.” He bellowed laughter. “The damned Yin-Yang Saint, a hundred thousand years ago you killed me and suppressed my soul down at the bottom of the cliff. Did you guess that I would lie in wait for a hundred thousand years before coming back to life? Today, not only will I obtain your legacy, I will also devour Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue!”

Huozhu Chi’s burning gaze shone with crimson bloodlust. Devilish energy rolled off him in waves as tadpole-shaped runes flowed from the devil markings. The whole sight was terrifying.

He took a step into the cave, trailing behind Qingfeng Li and Linglong Xue.
