The Divine Martial Stars-Chapter 1016 - The Myriad Blades Palace

Chapter 1016 The Myriad Blades Palace

The silver-mountain-like strange stone beneath the Bone Sacred Mountain was the most sacred place on the Ghost Star. In the past, Caicai, Ning Jing, and Dong Xue rose to power and became a major force on the Ghost Star because of the silver-mountain-like strange stone. Li Mu came and helped them unify the Ghost Star.

After coming here again, Li Mu clearly felt that the power of the Earth Fire in the empty underground space had reached a terrifying level. Ordinary experts in the King Realm might not be able to withstand it.

“We have arrived.”

Caicai pointed to the place ahead.

“Is the silver-mountain-like strange stone missing?” Li Mu was surprised.

Dong Xue said, “The power of the Earth Fire has risen. The temperature was so high that the silver-mountain-like strange stone melted and turned into magma, which went into the depths of the Earth Fire. When we go further, we can see a group of looming palaces standing by the shore of the magma of the Earth Fire. The ghost practitioners of the Ghost Star are not strong enough, so they don’t dare to go down and explore. The previous batches of outsiders have already entered.”

They came to the bank of the magma where the Earth Fire was burning. They saw the red hot mist was swirling, and the boiling strange magma was emitting dark blue flames. With their full vision, they could see ancient palaces twisting in the flame mist in the depths of the place. The scene was looming like a mirage.

“Athanasia Immortal Palace!”

Zhuge Yun’s eyes lit up.

The other experts who represented the Military of Man to the Ziwei Star Zone became excited.

“Some people have gone in. We have to hurry up.” Zhuge Yun raised his hand and threw out a small wooden boat. It fell into the magma. Its light flashed and expanded, and it became a big ship that could hold 20 people.

Li Mu turned to Caicai and the others and asked, “What’s the situation on the Opposite Bank Star now? Has Brother Shan’s family retreated?”

Dong Xue said, “Sister Yunxiu and the main members of the Shan family have all avoided in advance after receiving the message from you.

Li Mu was much more relieved. He said, “The situation is not peaceful now. You’d better retreat to the tactical deployment of Death Qi to hide with the ghost practitioners. Once you encounter any outsiders, just answer their questions directly. You should focus on your own safety. Do you understand?”

Dong Xue asked, ” Young Master, will this affect your affairs?”

Li Mu said, “It doesn’t matter even if it affects me. Moreover, it won’t affect me.”

Dong Xue replied, “I see.”

Caicai said, “Brother Mu, I want to go in with you.” She was reluctant to be separated from Li Mu.

Li Mu wanted to refuse, but he nodded for some reason.

Caicai cheered up.

In the end, Dong Xue and her husband evacuated with other ghost practitioners.

Li Mu and the others boarded the wooden boat and headed for the depths of the magma of Earth Fire.

The palace complex didn’t look far away, but it was really far.

Zhuge Yun’s mechanical boat moved very fast, but it took half an hour to cover half of the distance. At this time, a charred smell filled the air. The bottom of the wooden boat began to emit blue flames.

“Woodcutter Zhuge, is this ship okay? Why do I feel like it’s going to burn?” The Sword Lunatic shouted.

Zhuge Yun also showed a look of surprise and said, “This Heavenly Crossing Boat of mine can withstand an attack from an Emperor-to-be. I didn’t expect it to be ignited by the magma of the Earth Fire. Fortunately, I didn’t think too highly of it!”

He raised his hand and cast another golden light spot, which fell into the magma of the Earth Fire and finally turned into a light golden boat.

Everyone switched to the small golden metal boat.

Zhuge Yun took back the wooden boat and looked at it carefully. A distressed look appeared on his face. “Half of the base material and half of the driver were destroyed. I have to spend some time and effort to reforge them. I’m afraid the magma of the Earth Fire is not ordinary. Since it can burn an Emperor-to-be, it should be left behind by the Cosmic Emperor Deathless.”

Song Bie and the other two swordsmen, as well as the three red-armored military generals, all had solemn looks in their eyes.

If it weren’t for Zhuge Yun, they wouldn’t have been able to cross the sea of magma, let alone enter the Athanasia Immortal Palace.

However, the more terrible the magma of the Earth Fire here was, the more it proved that the palaces ahead were likely to be the legendary Athanasia Immortal Palace.

The metal boat moved extremely fast. After another half an hour, they finally arrived at the front of the palace complex.

A small dock appeared on the shore.

Everyone went ashore.

Zhuge Yun put away the boat.

“Eh? It is so hot here,” Caicai said in surprise.

On the shore, everyone felt that the original force of flames could no longer be felt. Instead, they felt cool and comfortable. Obviously, there was some magical tactical deployment that isolated the temperature of the magma of the Earth Fire outside.

The tactical deployment was even more powerful than the shield on Zhuge Yun’s mechanical ship.

There were steps beside the small dock.

They went up a staircase with 21 steps and saw a small square that could accommodate about 100 people.

On the other side of the square were four giant statues with a height of 50 meters. They were holding a hammer, a shield, a broadsword, and a Qiang, respectively.

In the eyes of Li Mu, they were a bit like an ancient Roman sculpture. The lines of their muscles were clear and full of the Western style of the earth. They are like four gods guarding the hall behind them. This style was rare.

“Eh? The third statue on the right has no face.” Ming Yue lowered her voice and said.

Li Mu took a closer look and found that it was true.

The third statue held a Qiang. It was fierce and rough, and its body lines were full of explosive power. Its muscles bulged, and it looked extremely powerful. However, its face seemed to have been cut by some weapon. Its facial features were all destroyed. The face was full of bumps as if it had been disfigured.

Zhuge Yun said, “In the legend, the Cosmic Emperor Deathless had Four Great Generals, namely, the hammer, the shield, the broadsword, and the Qiang. Later, Cosmic Emperor Deathless died, and the Four Great Generals disappeared. There was a saying that one of the Four Great Generals had betrayed the Cosmic Emperor Deathless and caused him to die. The four statues seem to be the Four Great Generals in the legend. The one who holds the Qiang might be the person who betrayed the Cosmic Emperor Deathless.”

“There is such a secret history.”

Li Mu was quite surprised.

He took a few more glances at the statue holding the Qiang.

But he didn’t find anything special.

They passed the statues and arrived at a towering palace. It looked a little similar to the Darkest Temple in the depths of the mining cave of the Liuyun Manor that Li Mu had seen before. But this palace looked older and more ancient.

Above the gate of the temple, there was a white stone plaque with big words written in the language of the Protoss — Myriad Blades Palace.

They walked up the stairs and arrived at the entrance of the palace.

It was not dark. At a glance, broken broadswords and swords were scattered all over the ground as if a battle had just taken place inside. There were remnants of energy fluctuation of Primordial Qi and even a trace of blood smell spreading.

“Be careful, everyone.” Li Mu said.

As he walked inside, three palm-sized triangular shields suddenly floated up around his waist. They were light golden and flickered. They wrapped around his waist and kept rotating. They seemed to be a protective treasure.

The three red-armored experts from the Military of Man surrounded Zhuge Yun and protected him in the triangular shape. The standard long broadswords hanging from his waist had been unsheathed, and they ran their cultivation, ready to attack at any time.

Song Bie, Li Shang, and Ying Bing reacted almost the same as the three experts from the Military of Man. They gathered their Cultivation Method to protect Li Mu.

Li Mu laughed to himself.

He felt good to be protected by his subordinates.

The Sword Fanatic and Li Xuanjun were also standing on two sides of Li Mu.

The three weakest people, Caicai, Qing Feng, and Ming Yue, followed Li Mu closely.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

A strange sound suddenly rang out.

Everyone was shocked. When they looked carefully, they saw that the broken weapons all over the ground seemed to have been awakened by footsteps. They slowly swayed and made the sound of friction as if they were alive.

This scene was strange.

“Everyone, be careful.”

Zhuge Yun naturally became the leader.

As they walked further in, they saw more and more weapons, all of which were broken and piled up on the ground. Various weapons were thrown in a mess. Some of them had even been piled up like hills.

The place seemed to be a tomb of all sorts of weapons.

Li Mu and his companions went further in and were shocked to see that the internal space of the Myriad Blades Palace was much larger than it looked from the outside. It seemed to be aloof from the outside. In the end, everyone was shocked because the mountains made of broken weapons were hundreds of meters high. They looked endless. It was impossible to see the end of them at a glance.

“This is too exaggerated. There seem to be hundreds of millions of weapons piled up here.” Ming Yue said, “Why are these weapons incomplete?”

“These may be incomplete products forged by the Cosmic Emperor Deathless back then.” Zhuge Yun did not put on airs. As he walked, he explained, “He became an emperor in the Way of casting. Except for his talent and opportunities, he had to practice countless times to gain experience, For ordinary Weapon Refiners, it is amazing if they finish hundreds or even thousands of finished products in their lives. To develop and explore various experiments in casting, the number of incomplete products produced by them is hundreds of thousands of times greater than those finished. Moreover, the Cosmic Emperor Deathless was a casting madman. He might have made hundreds of millions of incomplete products before he achieved his Way. It is very likely that he has thrown all his defective products to the Myriad Blades Palace.”

When Li Mu heard that, he was also shocked.

No one could succeed easily.

Even the Cosmic Emperor Deathless, who was known as the number one talent in forging weapons since ancient times, did not achieve the Way by luck and talent. Seeing the endless inferior weapons here, others could know how hard he worked, how lonely he was, and how many difficulties he had experienced before he succeeded.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The strange sounds intensified.

All the broken weapons in the Myriad Blades Palace began to vibrate.
