The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 1791: Underworld Avenue, Tomb of the Gods
"What?"
Everyone looked together.
In the distance, the blood-red sky spread, covering the heavens and quickly engulfing the entire sky.
Immediately, everyone found themselves in a blood-tinted environment.
Especially the sky, which seemed capable of bleeding at any moment.
"What kind of ghostly place is this?"
Ye Tiankuang complained, though he looked indifferent.
However, the young Pirate King was uneasy, exclaiming, "Sirs, we should hurry and leave here. The blood-red sky signifies the arrival of demons. My ancestors said that the Pirate King was devoured by demons. We must leave quickly, or we’ll all die here!"
Ye Chenfeng, however, laughed, "Wonderful! If there are demons, I want to see what they look like. Are they beautiful?"
"Pff!"
The young Pirate King was almost spitting blood.
Are demons beautiful...
Ye Chenfeng walked at the front, with everyone following behind.
His gaze swept around, and now the blood-red sky matched perfectly.
"Kid, I’m giving you a chance now. Tell us everything your ancestors told you about this place. Otherwise, you won’t have another chance to speak later."
Ye Chenfeng spoke indifferently.
The young Pirate King was startled and said, "My ancestors said the Pirate King was undoubtedly the greatest pirate. He was almost invincible at sea, with nowhere he couldn’t go and no risk he couldn’t mitigate. Back then, it was due to the Pirate King’s accomplishments that my ancestors arrived here with no risk."
"And then?"
Ye Chenfeng asked.
"My ancestors moved the Pirate King’s treasure to the island, seemingly transporting it into the pyramid. The Pirate King’s confidant warned my ancestors that this place was a demon’s graveyard. Staying too long might lead to a curse, or worse, the demon could emerge. If the sky appears blood-red, the demon is about to appear. In reality, my ancestors and the other pirates died because of the curse—their end was tragic, bodies decaying and dissolving..."
The young Pirate King revealed everything he had kept secret.
"Pyramid? Demon? I understand now."
The group continued deeper into the island, with their view gradually broadening, stretching far and wide.
They arrived at an expansive avenue.
The avenue was extraordinarily wide, fitting twenty trucks side by side with no issues.
Despite the vast space under the blood-red sky, a feeling of insignificance crept over everyone.
A bizarre, subtle atmosphere spread among the crowd; there was an undeniable sense of strangeness.
"There’s no sun here!"
Tang Jue noticed the issue.
"Yes, there’s none."
Ye Chenfeng nodded.
One glance revealed the avenue had no end, brimming with unknown mysteries lying in wait.
The group continued onward, unsure of how long they’d traveled.
The scenes before them began to change.
Temples, pavilions, towers, and streets lined the avenue, all perfectly preserved despite the marks of time.
If populated, this place would undoubtedly be a bustling city.
The spectacle shocked everyone, and they wore expressions of disbelief.
"It seems this place once possessed an unprecedented civilization!"
Ye Chenfeng commented.
There was not a single anomaly encountered thus far.
"First, find the pyramid! Then look for the place in Ji Qingrong’s photo!"
Ye Chenfeng thought to himself.
"This pressure is getting stronger! I almost suspect it’s close by!"
Chu Fengyu remarked.
Ye Tiankuang and the others nodded in agreement.
But only a few, including Ye Chenfeng, could feel the intense pressure; it reduced Chu Fengyu and others to the stature of ants before a monstrous force.
"I think I finally know where this place is..."
The doctor suddenly spoke.
"What? The legendary Underworld Avenue, it’s too similar; it’s likely that Tomb of the Gods lies on either side of it."
The doctor said.
The young Pirate King and others were scared to death, as things increasingly veered beyond their understanding.
"Could this be an ancient burial ground for foreign deities? There must be something incredible inside, obtaining even one thing would be a colossal fortune for us!"
Yet, Chu Fengyu and others were deathly excited, contemplating raiding the Tomb of the Gods.
"What secrets lie within? Let’s keep moving!"
Ye Chenfeng was growing increasingly curious.
After about half an hour, the scenes on either side changed drastically, it almost felt like stepping into another world.
The Underworld Avenue remained unchanged, but the surrounding architecture transformed significantly.
It turned into tiered, rectangle-shaped buildings, each layer retracting upward, resembling a pyramid or tomb.
However, numerous such clusters connected together, with a sky that seemed poised to drip blood; the realm felt grim, hinting at the Tomb of the Gods.
"This must be the true Underworld Avenue!"
The doctor confirmed this time.
Ye Chenfeng suddenly lowered his voice, "The Pirate King’s treasure undoubtedly lies within these pyramids, but there are too many pyramids and unknown dangers; everyone must be cautious."
"Ye, I’ll scout ahead with old Chu; we’ll notify immediately if anything happens."
Ye Tiankuang appeared eager.
"Alright!"
Ye Chenfeng agreed, acknowledging his companions were in the Heavenly Realm.
He continued onward with the others, aiming to uncover insights about the entire Underworld Avenue.
"Look over there!"
The young Pirate King pointed, not far away stood a tiered, quadrilateral edifice at the center of the Underworld Avenue.
Though identical to other buildings, it was ten times larger in scale and height, akin to a great mountain standing before them.
"This should be the sacrificial altar that was used by its people to offer sacrifices to the deities."
The doctor explained.
No one found it particularly surprising, but Ye Chenfeng was filled with shock.
The altar had appeared in photos Ji Qingrong had shown him previously.
In those photos, the altar’s full scale was undetectable, merely its terrain was visible.
"Let’s go!"
Ye Chenfeng quickened his pace, and despite curiosity, everyone followed.
Ye Chenfeng aimed to find the location where Ye Chenfu had once stood, possibly uncovering something different from that perspective.
Arriving before the altar, they realized the Underworld Avenue became circular here, encompassing the altar before extending indefinitely...
This was the center of the Underworld Avenue!
Soon, Ye Chenfeng found Ye Chenfu’s past standing place, gazing skyward from there should have marked the direction of the midday sun; yet inexplicably, there was no sun.
"This place is entirely just a deserted ruin, nothing special here!"
Zheng Xinyi said after observing.
"Yes, indeed, the secrets must still lie within the pyramids!"
Tang Jue remarked.
"There’s some change happening!"
Looking at the sky, Ye Chenfeng suddenly spoke.
