Baoze’s senior staff looked at each other with similar expressions as Li Xianyu, which was with a mixture of horror and confusion as if they had encountered a terrible but incomprehensible thing.

The Association of Superpowered Beings’ reaction was slow, and Eric glanced at his old opponent, who utterly demolished him by shaking his hand, and asked gravely, “What’s going on?”

He didn’t know that his teacher had already been killed by the other party’s great-grandmother. At this point, his hostility to Li Xianyu was reduced and he felt slightly grateful to him because he had saved their lives.

Li Xianyu looked away and his expression was grave. “Sculptures... These sculptures are still here...”

Glancing at the members of the Association of Superpowered Beings who still didn’t understand what he meant, he whispered, “The sculptures have awakened. Before we came, we already settled all of them.”

At last, the Association of Superpowered Beings finally understood, and their faces were confused and fearful. Li Xianyu jumped off Cui Hua and smashed a sculpture. The sculpture fell apart and he picked up a piece to scrutinize it. Only then did he discover that the sculpture was not made from stone at all. The internal mechanism was very detailed, and that it had a faint, undetectable smell.

Bacon?! This word came to Li Xianyu’s mind. It was absurd, but it was a serious judgement.

The river crab beasts outside the Great Deities Palace, the lizard sculptures in this world, both apparently act as guards, were they the security system of the Great Deities Palace?

If it was a security system, why didn’t this group of lizard sculptures awaken the first time that they entered the world? Who activated the security system?

Li Xianyu’s biggest problem was overthinking. The security system had nothing to do with the current situation, he should be thinking about why these lizard sculptures have appeared again.

“Look carefully, there is no powder on the ground,” Cui Hua said calmly.

Li Xianyu watched focused for a moment, and his heart sank. He was just wondering whether the sculptures were replaced. They shattered one batch and another had come, and if so, it would be very difficult.

However, in front of the endless group of sculptures, there was no white sand on the dark brown earth, which was unexpected. The bronze palace in front of them is different from their original one.

“Our direction is correct. We’re not going the wrong way,” a senior employee said.

So another possibility was ruled out: they stumbled upon another bronze palace in the world.

So there was only one possibility: They are in the other world?

Li Xianyu stated his speculation and everyone was incredulous.

“That’s impossible, a key can only open a door.”

“In a place like the Great Deities Palace, there wouldn’t be disruption of its own rules.”

“The spaces are independent right? Why did we walk to another world?”

There was a lot of discussion.

“No, it’s not impossible.” A bearded man of the Association of Superpowered Beings said, “The Great Deities Palace exists in the dimensional space, or more accurately, it is a dimensional space itself, so why is it divided into eight worlds, with eight corresponding keys? It’s against space theory.”

“What do you mean?” Li Xianyu, who was an undergraduate didn’t understand.

“Space is a whole, like the real world we live in, and you can go anywhere in the world as long as you have the transportation. It is impossible for China, to be a world, and us, the USA, to be another world.”

However, for most ordinary people, it’s two worlds...

Li Xianyu nodded. Now was not the time to snark. The American man made sense.

“Then how do you explain the eight keys?” Cui Hua turned and looked at the bearded American man.

Cui Hua’s features were very defined and had amber pupils. She also had a curvaceous figure that was very much in line with the aesthetic of European and American men.

Asked by a goddess-like beauty, the American man immediately became very energetic and spoke with confidence.

“I think the problem lies in that door, which may have some kind of strength, that divides the world behind the door into eight separate spaces. But that’s an incredible guess, because space cannot be manipulated and changed as we are born in a three dimensional world. Even Baoze’s latest space technology has only created a small dimensional space. The technique can only create a link that connects real space, not to manipulate it.”

This guy spoke Chinese well.

“It’s a bold guess, but it fits what’s happening now.” The man pointed to the fire pillar that had been ablaze for a long time. “The pillar of fire may have run through and connected the eight spaces.”

Eric thought about it, and suggested, “Should we use stealth and sneak over?”

After he said this, he looked at Li Xianyu and asked for his opinion.

The current team must be led by Baoze, whose staff follow Li Xianyu’s lead. Even though Eric was usually very arrogant, he was still observant enough.

“I think we should still stand by.”

“Yeah, yeah. if I knew earlier, I wouldn’t have come out with the Li family descendant.”

“Pfft, what’s the use of regretting now? I actually thought this mission wasn’t very tough, I must be too full of myself.”

“Before leaving, I repeatedly told everyone not to form a team with the Li family descendant. After entering the Great Deities Palace, we completely forgot that.”

The senior staff groaned.

The curse of the Li family descendant had emerged. As long as he was on the team, things always developed in an uncontrollable direction. It was a very ordinary rescue mission, and it now turned into this situation.

The cause of the fire pillar was still unknown. No one knew what was going on in the bronze palace. Maybe hell... It must be hell, according to the Li family descendant’s trend.

Eric was a little confused. Was he mistaken? The Baoze line-up wasn’t led by the Li family descendant?

The corners of Li Xianyu’s mouth twitched as he said, “How about this? Those who are willing to go stealth with me will come. Those who are afraid of death, standby. We’ll communicate via the walkie-talkie.”

The walkie-talkie couldn’t reach the Baoze Army, who were guarding the Bronze Palace.

He felt that the strategy of dividing the troops into two routes could work. Under the condition of lack of intelligence, charging recklessly could cause them to be wiped out if there was a real danger.

“Those who have detection super powers must follow me, and the rest of you can decide on your own,” Li Xianyu said.

Hearing this, Victoria tapped Ryder’s head.

In the end, Baoze sent three senior staff to follow Li Xianyu, while Ryder and Eric from the Association of Superpowered Beings followed. Ryder had super hearing, while Eric was simply an accomplished brave man who wanted to join in.

....

The moment the fire column rose, everyone felt a great sense of oppression, it was a deep fear that originated from the soul, as if it had been imprinted on the genes for tens of millions of years.

The creature’s reaction was most intense. It reacted like a bird who was frightened before, abandoning the wounded men it had defeated, and clambered out of the bronze palace, disappearing into the steps.

Li Peiyun, who passed by the monster on the steps, saw apocalyptic fears in the eyes of the monster who had limited intelligence.

What did the pillar of fire represent? It actually invoked such a strong fear in an ancient demons’ shedding.

The monster vanished on the steps, and the top S-Class members looked at Li Peiyun.

Li Peiyun gasped. “Sss, I’m going to say it was all a joke. Do you believe me, buddies?”

Wright Green replied coldly, “Clearly not.”

With no nonsense, Li Peiyun jumped down a two-meter step and escaped.

Faul Anderson looked at the entrance of the steps, and at the fire pillar surging into the sky behind him. “What do we do now? Go down to the bottom of the pool, or give chase?”

The top S-Class members gathered together. Some had broken bones while some had injuries in their internal organs.

Fortunately, as masters of their calibre, they are perfectly capable of withstanding it. Their combat power was affected, but they were not incapacitated like ordinary people.

When the battle began, the woman who didn’t interfere suddenly said, “Would you dare go down? That creature has been stuck here for years, and it’s at its weakest now. If you don’t catch it now, are you trying to wait for it to recover?”

After saying her piece, she cradled the baby and disappeared into the steps.

Faul Anderson looked back again, looking at the fiery flame pillar. After staring at a long time, his eyes felt an ache and were sore, like looking at the sun in the sky directly.

The heat of the fire column was so high that it could forge steel.

They could still hang in there for a while. However, the bottom of the pool was 100 meters deep. What was the difference between jumping in and courting death?

As such, chasing the monster was the only and best option.

“We are not capable of defeating the creature,” Eva Carpe said.

“Since the woman dares to give chase, it shows that she’s confident.” Wright Green said, “Let’s go and check it out.”

Together with their members, they leapt down from the tall steps and returned to the brown earth. One hundred meters ahead, the Thai woman was confronting It.

After leaving the Bronze Palace, it seemed to be freed from that fear. At this point, the creature had a new rival, a human woman.

Standing farther away was the traitor Li Peiyun. Instead of rushing to flee, he chose to stay and watch the drama. However, he looked more wary after seeing the S-class members of the Soul Destroying Alliance follow.

However, everyone ignored him. They just glanced at him and focused on the two parties locked in confrontation.

The standoff was short, and the baby seemed to wake up from a sweet dream. It first emitted a weak hum, then a loud cry, which began to resound.

Wah wah wah! In this silent space, the baby’s cries were the only melody.

Over time, the Soul Destroying Alliance’s members were feeling dizzy, feeling as if needles were piercing at their temples. They closed their ears to no avail. The cries had a direct impact on the soul.

The creature suddenly moved its shoulders, like a conscious struggle when something had pressed against its shoulders.

The S-class members’ spiritual eyes were triggered. Hot tears rolled down their faces as they saw the familiar scene. The baby in the arms of the Thai woman emanated black smoke, which turned into a ferocious-looking vengeful spirit in mid-air.

The vengeful spirits were either holding down the creature’s shoulders or grabbing its hands and feet to lock it in place. It was under the control of the vengeful spirits silently.

The Soul Destroying Alliance members had encountered vengeful spirits previously. They had never seen such strange vengeful spirits before.

They were unlike ordinary vengeful spirits. They feared qi and energy, but were not particularly afraid. They also had a strong resilience and when impacted by qi and energy, they at most scream and retreat.

The average vengeful spirits when shocked by a top S-class’s qi and energy, would disappear in a second.

In the qi cultivation system of the demon descendants community, there were many means to deal with the vengeful spirits, and each religion has its own “exorcism” means.

In ancient times, exorcism and elimination of spirits were the essential means of religious transmission.

Thus, after hundreds of years, and even thousands of years of exploration, there were still a lot of techniques for religions to deal with the vengeful spirits.

However, this creature was an ancient demon’s shedding and could only use its qi and energy to shake off and eliminate these nasty vengeful spirits.

The vengeful spirits roared in pain soundlessly, their bodies that were made of black smoke shook violently.

They were in pain and felt like it can’t hold up any time. It was desperate, but it couldn’t shake off these nasty vengeful spirits. Both parties were on par.

At this point, the S-class members of the Soul Destroying Alliance realized that the baby’s cries had stopped. They focused on the creature’s struggle with the vengeful spirits and ignored the cries of the baby.

When they realized the problem, a horrific scene occurred.

A little baby appeared on the creature’s head, and the baby’s body was small but it had a large head. The baby had dark, blue skin, and thick, dark vessels bulged on its skin.

The baby’s fingers and toes were dark. Its eyes were scarlet red, and flashed with ferocity. It was a good image for any movie about a ghost baby.

In a more terrifying scene, the ghost baby opened its mouth and revealed its fangs. It devoured the creature’s head and devoured half of the creature’s brain.

This was a baby whose mouth could open 180 degrees like a snake could chew off half of a grown man’s head.

The creature refused to be defeated so easily. It emitted qi and energy wildly as the little body of the baby was scorched and bruised. The baby let out sharp squeals. The baby was like a child who fell down and cried out in pain.

However, the baby’s mouth kept on devouring the creature’s body. The baby quickly gnawed off the creature’s head, chomped down on the creature’s internal organs, and eventually ate the hands and feet.

The baby’s tiny body was stained red with blood, and its face was covered with blood during its devouring.

Eva Carpe bent over and puked.

The gentlemen of Europe and the U.S. twitched. They had seen bloody scenes, but the sight of an ugly little baby gnawing on an adult and eating with gusto, polishing off internal organs and brains were too challenging to bear.

The content caused extreme discomfort but could not be reported, and it was very hard to stomach.

After polishing off the ancient demon’s shedding, the baby was clutching its stomach, rolling in pain and crying again.

The baby was suffering from a backlash?

The top S-Class members exchanged glances with each other, watched quietly, and waited for the event to develop.

A few minutes later, the baby rolled around in agony, convulsed and then spat out a mass of tender red flesh.

This was the real form of the ancient’s demons’ shedding.

The Aoki family members’ eyes were shining. This is what they have been dreaming about. The Aoki family had been looking for the Great Deities Palace in World War II because of this.

It was the essence of the ancient demons left after death. It inherited some of the ancient demons ‘s power. Obtaining it was the equivalent of obtaining the ancient demon’s power.

This was the case with the evil creatures on the Li family descendant. It possessed all the incredible powers that are now inherited by the Li family descendant.

“It’s my prey.” The Thai woman turned around and glanced at the crowd. “Of course, if you want to snatch it, feel free to try.”

She spoke in Thai, and after being translated by the Thai-language-savvy staff, the top S-class members cursed in their hearts.

What is there to snatch? That little thing is probably a Half-Step Gokudo.

Who would dare to snatch? That’s akin to courting death.

The woman picked up the tender red meat tissue, held it in her palm and looked at Aoki Takuya. “How do you use this?”

“I don’t know. It’s the first time we are seeing it. However, it should be the same thing as the one on the Li family descendant. You can ask Li Peiyun, he and the Li family descendant both have been through the struggle for the Demonic Priest’s inheritance,” Aoki Takuya said reluctantly.

In the distance, Li Peiyun saw the woman glance over and thought about it. He said earnestly, “Wrap it with egg and add flour. Fry it in oil until gold. Believe it or not, you can make the Li family descendant salivate.”

The Thai woman didn’t understand and said in stilted English, “Can you speak English?”

Her expression suddenly changed and she screamed in alarm.

The tender red meat in her hand penetrated her palm and devoured her flesh. Vessels bulged up on her fair arm, like a snake crawling in the flesh, crawling into her body from her arm.

As long as one was a demon descendant, they would not be able to resist this devouring.

There was one characteristic of the ancient demons’ shedding of the Great Deities Palace: devour!

If Li Xianyu was here, he would never come into contact with it. To this day, Li Xianyu’s left hand could not be reproduced, and he can only maintain his left hand using Slime.

Unfortunately, she didn’t have Li Xianyu’s experience.

The Thai woman cut off her right arm decisively, as her bloody arm was cut off from her shoulder. It fell to the ground, and almost immediately, her arm was devoured. The tender red flesh wriggled on the floor like a mass of Slime.

As the woman looked down to deal with the injury, the land beneath her feet suddenly bulged up. A dark tentacle emerged, grabbing the tender red tissue. It dragged it into the ground and disappeared.
