Chapter 287: Chapter 267 Netherworld Soul Nurturing Altar_1
There was also an altar piled up with divine bones, alerting Li Cheng to the extraordinary nature of the matter.
He must investigate thoroughly!
If it was like the altar in the ancient battlefield, it would suggest that deities
had been arranging it in secret, which likely boded ill.
“Are you sure you want to look? That altar is very strange, it erases people’s memories,” the Five Elements Great Emperor said.
Li Cheng’s pupils contracted slightly, it was the same with that one in the ancient battlefield!
The memories of the mole and the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle who had
seen the altar had been erased!
Even he himself had felt uncomfortable for several days after witnessing that
scene.
But the more it was so, the more necessary it was to understand it.
Li Cheng reached out a hand, and the Space Law surged, opening a passage leading to the depths of the earth.
Li Cheng hurried forward, and soon, the scene before him caused his expression to grow increasingly solemn.
An unbreakable Divine Array, an altar made from stacks of divine bones, and a sea of Divine Blood, identical to the one on the ancient battlefield!
“This altar has a very mysterious power. After looking at it, no matter how high one’s mental state is, there will be an indescribable sense of oppression that takes a long time to dissipate, and those with slightly lower cultivation will lose that part of their memory once they leave a certain area,” Grand Venerable Bai Jie followed and spoke.
Li Cheng nodded, his brows furrowing as he said, “I’ve seen an identical altar in the ancient battlefield. However, above that altar, within a hundred miles of molten lava, grew an Enlightenment Divine Tree that bore tens of thousands of Enlightenment Divine Fruits.”
“While here, above is the Formation sealing the Divine Path.”
The same kind of altar seemed to be gathering the powers of Divine Blood and divine bones, but who had done this, and what was their purpose?
“With Divine Blood as the sacrifice, and divine bones as the catalyst, this is the Netherworld Soul Nurturing Altar!” Jiang Zhipan walked over, his eyes shining as he spoke.
Li Cheng even saw the man swallow his saliva covertly.
The crowd looked at Jiang Zhipan in unison, awaiting the rest of his
explanation.
Jiang Zhipan stared intently at the blood sea and the altar within the light film, saying, “After the death of deities, even if their souls scatter, there will always be strands of unconscious Remnant Souls drifting in the world, sometimes causing heavenly divine phenomena, which are such Remnant Souls being stirred.”
“And the altar before us is for gathering those unconscious Remnant Souls, nurturing the one in the center of the altar.”
The words of Jiang Zhipan made everyone’s hair stand on end, meaning, at the center of the altar, there was a Remnant Soul of a deity that had been nurtured for who knows how many years!
“The memories erased from those people, was it done by the one inside the altar?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan asked with concern.
The Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle had been at the Immortal Emperor Realm, and even with such cultivation, part of its memory was silently erased; if it was the doing of the one inside, it was truly terrifying!
Jiang Zhipan shook his head, “No, that’s a special function of the altar. The Netherworld Soul Nurturing Altar is most suitable for Remnant Souls like mine, heh, Li Cheng, you go ahead on your own. I’m going to nurture my soul.
“Does Senior Jiang mean that there’s no one inside?” Li Cheng asked.
Jiang Zhipan pointed to the altar, “You see those skulls making up the altar emit a misty aura, which undoubtedly signifies that the Remnant Souls have gathered, indicating that the one inside has long departed, otherwise they would have been absorbed by him.”
Li Cheng remembered that the Netherworld Soul Nurturing Altar in the ancient battlefield was the same, was it also empty?
The Five Elements Great Emperor frowned slightly, “This altar always gives off a sense of evil, are you sure that after using it to restore your Divine Soul, your nature will not be affected?”
Her concern was not unfounded, as those who saw the scenario before her, if their memories were not erased, would be influenced by an invisible oppression, causing adverse effects in their hearts.
And if one stayed in it for countless years, their nature might well change.
“Of course not, the inside of this altar is a treasure place, even if I explained you wouldn’t understand, in any case, this is my opportunity!” Jiang Zhipan said with a laugh.
“What about Senior Tian Yuan? He could also use this altar to fully recover, right?” Li Cheng asked.
“He’s not a deity… that seems to be fine too, he should be able to use those powers to condense a Divine Soul, and in the future, he can directly reach the Divine Realm and, once a body has been formed, become a deity,” Jiang Zhipan pondered and said.
Li Cheng’s eyes lit up, if that was the case, then Immortal Emperor Tianyuan might indeed be turning misfortune into a blessing!
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan felt wistful, becoming a deity in this manner seemed not bad after all.
“That’s settled then, 1’11 help you break the Formation above first, retrieve the Divine Path, and then Tian Yuan and I will nurture our souls here. Within a million years, we will surely succeed,” Jiang Zhipan said, then took the lead in leaving the place.
Li Cheng pondered silently, the altar in the ancient battlefield was probably empty now as well, and moreover, the roots of the Enlightenment Divine Tree had probed into the Formation, possibly absorbing the altar’s power to produce so many Divine Fruits of the martial path.
“Hurry up, the Divine Array sealing the Divine Path has nothing to do with the Netherworld Soul Nurturing Altar, let’s study it a bit more, and strive to break the Formation sooner!” Jiang Zhipan urged.
Returning to the magma lake, they saw Jiang Zhipan already eagerly studying the Formation.
Li Cheng felt helpless, as the Divine Array was too mystical and profound, not as understandable as the Immortal Array.
It seemed, intuition was still necessary!
[Current remaining number of Enlightenment attempts: 223.]
It had been many years since the last counting, and if counted now, there would surely be thousands of Enlightenment attempts, but Li Cheng was not in a hurry, as 223 attempts were more than enough!
“Found it, I said the basis of this Divine Array was strange, so that’s it, break forme!”
