"Oh? The Insect Emperor has already been taken away? Or is it…"
Lin Xuan looked around and looked at the ground that was already dyed red with blood below. He knew that a terrifying war had once erupted here.
On the ground, other than red, there was a faint golden light. This was because the source of the blood was not simple.
Even though it had already left his body, it still emitted a faint light.
Looking into the distance, they were densely covered in the corpses of demon beasts. Some were even like dried corpses that had their essence absorbed.
Lin Xuan did not need to think to know that it must be some experts who used the spiritual qi of these demon beasts to replenish themselves in battle.
Lin Xuan slowly walked forward. Along the way, the traces of the battle increased.
The ground cracked, and corpses covered the ground. Only half of the five-colored mountain in the distance was left. It had been cut off at the waist.
Around the five-colored mountain, many broken array formations and immortal treasures could be clearly seen.
"Good place!" Lin Xuan then muttered.
In the center of the Five-Colored Mountain were many jade buildings. One could see that the mansions were well preserved.
However, the protective array formations of each mansion were broken. There was nothing inside.
Lin Xuan slowly walked into the group of buildings and activated the dual-pupils. After a while, he muttered in confusion.
"What's this? A small stone tablet? Hmm? There are words on it?"
Lin Xuan discovered many small stone tablets that were about the size of a palm. They contained ancient Dao runes.
"There are a total of 99 and they can all return to one. Could it be that these stone tablets have some special meaning?"
Lin Xuan counted and frowned, thinking about something.
After a long time, he slowly raised his head and looked at his surroundings. Be it the mountain range or the buildings, they all emitted a faint dark light. Even if they were wantonly destroyed by the battles of the young supreme beings, it did not have any effect.
Not to mention that this place had experienced the baptism of countless years. It was an extraordinary place.
Suddenly, Lin Xuan turned his head suddenly. The dual-pupils closed immediately and shouted.
"Come out!"
In the distance, the bodies of several cultivators suddenly trembled, and they revealed expressions of disbelief. They had actually been discovered so far away?
"Don't be angry, my lord. We have no ill intentions. We only wanted to wait for you to leave and pick up the spoils. Please don't take offense!"
The few cultivators then walked out and bowed to Lin Xuan as they said respectfully.
They knew that the person in front of them was definitely not simple.
Then, these people were even more shocked. Because they were very far away earlier, they could only roughly see a figure.
Now that they looked carefully, it was actually a child who did not seem to be three or four years old. It was really unbelievable.
However, these cultivators were from famous families. They did not underestimate the other party just because he was a child. Their expressions were still filled with respect.
Their intelligence saved their lives.
"Lord, don't be angry. We'll leave now. Sorry for disturbing you!"
Those cultivators had extraordinary strength, but they were completely incomparable to the young supreme beings who fought here previously.
One had to know that the previous battle had frightened them badly. They only dared to hide far away and did not dare to approach at all.
If not for the fact that those supreme beings had already left, they would still not dare to approach.
Seeing the other party's respectful attitude, Lin Xuan did not make things difficult for him. He only slowly asked about what had happened here.
The expressions of the few of them were especially strange. After all, the other party was only a child. Being questioned by a child made them feel very uncomfortable.
However, after a long time, the sixth sense that they cultivated made them not dare to be negligent.
"The Insect Emperor has appeared!" The few of them replied honestly.
When Lin Xuan heard the other party's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly. It was indeed as he had thought.
"Actually, it can't be said to be an Insect Emperor. To be precise, it should be considered a quasi Insect Emperor. If it's nurtured, it can enter the Insect Emperor realm!" One of them continued to explain.
As the few of them spoke, Lin Xuan completely understood what had happened.
When everyone fought to this point, they discovered nine districts that were separated.
There were eleven stone monuments in each area. Each stone monument recorded an Insect King.
However, only one of the eleven Insect Kings survived.
"This means that there are a total of 99 Insect Kings here who are distributed in nine regions. Only one Insect King survived in each region. Doesn't that mean that nine existences similar to Insect Emperors have appeared here!"
Lin Xuan asked with an unbelievable expression.
Those people nodded bitterly.
In fact, it was indeed so. Every single one of these nine regions had a quasi Insect Emperor reviving. When it revived, it was accompanied by monstrous blood qi.
It attracted countless people to fight over it.
In the end, someone returned from the deepest depths of the ruins and brought back news. Only then did everyone understand the situation.
It turned out that an ancient mighty figure had personally nurtured 99 Insect Kings. It could be said that these Insect Kings were the essence of this insect domain.
In the end, it was divided into nine regions. After fighting and devouring each other, it nurtured nine divine insects. This ancient Supreme Being's final goal should be to let these divine insects completely fuse after devouring each other to nurture a powerful Insect Emperor.
However, things were difficult to predict. The last step had yet to be taken when something unexpected happened. That supreme being failed the tribulation and was about to die.
Before he died, he had completely sealed this insect region. He did not have the time to carry out his final plan before he died.
It was clear that the value of these divine insects was without a doubt. This supreme being did not even have the time to leave behind his inheritance, but he had to protect these insects well.
It could be said that this was this supreme being's only wish, and he hoped that these insects could be obtained by future generations.
"At that time, we were very far away and did not dare to approach, but we saw those insects. Almost all of them were larvae, and there were even a few who were only cocoons. However, I'm certain that every single one of them has the potential to become an Insect Emperor!" A cultivator spoke with envy.
"A big shot from the Stone Kingdom obtained one, and the Northern Azure Immortal Dynasty obtained one." One of them spoke slowly as well.
Every time he spoke, a great figure would be mentioned.. Almost every single quasi Insect Emperor was obtained by a great figure, and the forces behind them naturally could not be underestimated.
