Chapter 967 - Dead Spirit Stele

It was unknown how deep the dark hole was. The extremely dense death aura was like a cloud as it surged.

At this time, the green flame was no longer covering his body, and the "Netherworld Nine Spirits Bird" was squatting on his right shoulder. Rainbow light continuously flowed out of his body, covering Tang Huan's body and flowing like water.

This colorful light had completely blocked out the surrounding death aura's attack, allowing Tang Huan to relax a lot.

The cave was completely dark.

Ever since he entered the cave, Tang Huan had not seen a single ray of light that originated from the black hole. Tang Huan only continuously flapped his wings, and did not notice the passage of time.

"Nine Spirits, are you sure there's a path to the center of the 'Heavenly Desolate Secret Realm'?"

After an unknown period of time, Tang Huan finally couldn't help but ask. He no longer called the "Netherworld Senior", and no longer called it "little thing". Instead, he used the word "little thing" and the word "little guy revealed". This was the name it had given him.

"Absolutely!"

Jiu Ling nodded again and again, and was close to swearing an oath, "I have been to the 'Spirit Cloud Mountain Range' a few times. I have always gone through this passage. Brother, don't worry. We will reach the end soon."

"Alright then!"

"..."

Tang Huan could only restrain his temper and bring the nine spirits with him as he continued to sink into the pit.

The truth proved that it was indeed very difficult for Nine Spirits to be trusted. It said that it would go "very quickly" to the end, but it took at least a few hours for Tang Huan to reach the end.

Tang Huan calculated that he had been flying inside this pit for about twelve hours.

Of course, if they could get to the Spirit Cloud Mountain in the middle of the "Heavenly Desolate Secret World" quickly, then the twelve hours would be worth it.

"Big Brother, let's go this way!"

Nine Spirit Right Wings pointed to the left.

Tang Huan withdrew his wings and madly rushed forward. Probably another two to three hours later, a little light finally appeared in the boundless darkness.

"It's there!"

Jiu Ling became excited.

Tang Huan's mind was slightly shaken, he increased his speed, and the light became stronger.

After approximately half an hour, Tang Huan finally stopped in his tracks. What appeared in his line of sight was a huge monument that was several hundred meters tall. The body of the tablet was crystal clear and white like snow, as if it was sculpted out of an incomparably large, beautiful piece of jade.

The body of the monolith as well as the surrounding several hundred meters of land were all dazzling, containing countless complex veined patterns.

On the ground, at every small distance, there were lines interweaving into a small whirlpool. Within the whirlpool, a black aura continuously rose up and blended into the darkness around them.

That should be the aura of death!

"Big brother, this is the 'Death Spirit Stele'. This is the name I've given it!"

The nine spirits flapped their little wings and started to proudly show off, "There is a bone sealed inside this tablet. All of the death aura in this place originates from that bone. Apart from being used as a seal, the 'Death Spirit Stele' also has another function, which is to separate the death aura from the bones. "

Tang Huan was a little taken aback: "That bone contains such a large amount of death aura?"

"Of course."

Jiu Ling chuckled, "According to my estimation, the amount of dead energy separated now is not even half of the bone's content." As he spoke till here, the nine spirit mind instructs (in a second) unexpectedly revealed unconcealed greed. The little tongue licked the corner of his mouth, as if drooling with saliva.

"Oh?"

Tang Huan was shocked.

The black hole had existed for countless years. According to the nine spirits, it had existed since the moment it had its memories. Not to mention the dead aura that had been seeping out of the cave for so many years, the amount of dead aura that had been congealing in the cave so far was immeasurable.

But now, Nine Spirits actually said that the bone still had more than half of the aura of death!

What kind of bone could contain such a terrifying aura of death?

"Big brother, I'll bring you over to take a look."

The nine spirits excitedly flapped their wings, and under its guidance, Tang Huan quickly moved towards the front of the "Death Spirit Stele".

At the bottom of the giant monument stood a pitch-black bone. Looking at its appearance, it seemed to be a human phalanx, but it was both thick and long, almost two meters.

A two meter long phalanx, what kind of joke was this?

If a phalanx was so long, then just how big was a complete body? How could there be such a giant in the world? Tang Huan subconsciously shook his head, but in the next moment, he was startled. This world was huge, there were all kinds of strange things, even a bone that had such a massive amount of death aura could exist, why couldn't a two meter long phalanx appear?

After pondering for a while, Tang Huan finally calmed himself down and asked: "Jiu Ling, where is the passage you mentioned?"

"Elder Brother, please look over there."

The nine spirits pointed at the bottom of the Death Spirit Stele.

About a meter away from the monolith, there was a strange imprint. It was about the size of a bowl, and looked like a proud, colorful lotus flower that bloomed. It was incredibly lifelike. What was even stranger was that the colored lotus actually revealed the nine different colors on the little guy's body.

The bone was right behind the colorful lotus mark.

Tang Huan looked at the mark, then looked at the nine spirits, his heart suddenly moved, was there a connection between the mark and the nine spirits? In a moment of thought, he caught another wisp of the nine spirits' mind instructs (in a second). "Inject your power into that place and you will be able to open the passage to the Spirit Cloud Mountain Range."

"Since that's the case, let's not delay this matter …"

Tang Huan stopped thinking about it, but before he could finish, Jiu Ling said in embarrassment, "Big brother, wait, wait, I have a small request …" Without waiting for Tang Huan to respond, Jiu Ling hurriedly said the latter half of her sentence, "Can you help me take that phalanx out from the seal?"

"Take out the phalanx?" Tang Huan was slightly startled, and his brows slightly knitted.

"Yes, yes."

Nine Spirits laughed and said, "Big brother, with that phalanx, I don't have to worry about my cultivation anymore. The stronger I am, the more I can help you, right?"

"You can't have lost your mind, right?"

Tang Huan could not help but look at the nine spirits with a strange expression. "Do you think I, a cultivator at the origin realm, have the ability to retrieve a phalanx from its seal?"

"Big brother doesn't know."

Jiu Ling laughed, "In the process of activating the colored lotus imprint and opening the passage, the seal on the" Death Spirit Tablet "will be sluggish for a moment, and the piece of phalanx will also be revealed. As long as you grasp the opportunity, you can easily retrieve the phalanx from the seal."

"I can't believe he knows so much!"

Tang Huan suddenly laughed, "Jiu Ling, for you to bring me to this place, using this passage to head to the Spirit Cloud Mountain Range is secondary. Your real goal is probably this phalanx, right?" After confirming that the nine spirits were completely under his control, Tang Huan did not have the intention to investigate it intentionally. At this moment, he caught sight of the emotions hidden within the nine spirits mind instructs (in a second), but was able to immediately determine its true intent.
