Chapter 823 - 757: The 50,000-Year-Undying Old Knight
CHAPTER 823: CHAPTER 757: THE 50,000-YEAR-UNDYING OLD KNIGHT
The splendor and prosperity of the Ancient God City lasted for just a fleeting moment before it vanished into thin air, returning to its previous state of desolation.
Yet from the deepest part of the Demon God Ruins, amidst the endless mist, a pair of cold eyes suddenly shot out.
They were filled with savagery, indifference, ruthlessness, as well as the most terrifying Dao Will.
It was as if they were the merciless cold gaze of Heaven.
Boom——
Heaven and earth collapsed, and in the direction of the gaze, the void completely shattered, everything turned to nothing, the clouds dispersed, the heavens quaked and the earth split, indescribably terrifying.
What kind of existence could this be, so unimaginably powerful, that merely its gaze could cause heaven and earth to collapse and the vast heavens to shatter.
Heavenly King?
Ye Chen was shocked because he could not imagine a Heavenly King possessing such terrifyingly extreme gaze, probably it was something beyond that.
Ancient Great Power?
Suddenly, Ye Chen felt a chill all over, for the gaze, though formless, was mightier than form and landed on him, clashing with a clang, striking sparks of golden light, almost knocking him out from the void.
He felt an indescribable great power rippling, causing his Invincible Saint Body to almost explode.
Boom——
The Human Emperor Tower, with its spirit, flew out at the crucial moment and floated above his head. Its thirty-three-story Ancient Tower was like thirty-three layers of heaven, with each layer flowing with strands of Chaos Ancient Energy, which converged into a waterfall to protect him.
Moreover, Ye Chen instantly moved sideways as far away as possible, otherwise, he might actually have been blown apart, severely injured by just this pair of eyes.
It seemed impossible, but it indeed happened in reality. Even the vast amount of Power of Faith stored in the World Seed poured directly into his body, driving the Holy Body Regeneration Technique to its utmost, filling the entire Cangyu with golden radiance.
Naturally, the Gray Dragon was also protected at the first moment, but even so, it was unable to withstand that pair of eyes, being torn apart in several places, bleeding profusely, severely injured, with unparalleled horror appearing.
Too terrifying, merely a pair of eyes reached such a level, the other party must be a supreme existence that surpasses even the Heavenly King.
The entire Ancient Desolate Demon Domain was alarmed, countless gazes focused on there.
It must be noted that the supreme existence within the Demon God Ruins had been in slumber all this time, indifferent to mundane affairs, now it had awakened, and such power of its gaze was enough to shake the heaven and earth, frighten ghosts and gods, causing countless Demon Race Super Experts to have their scalps numb, with a deep-seated reverence and terror.
"Hmm?"
From within the Demon God Ruins seemed to come a faint exclamation, landing upon the thirty-three-layer Chaos Ancient Energy’s Human Emperor Tower, suddenly bursting with brilliant light, shining across the heavens, even outshining the sun, extremely noticeable.
"It’s his Supreme Emperor Weapon, surprisingly appearing in this realm..."
Within the Demon God Ruins, a voice seemed to echo faintly, shaking the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.
Ye Chen was startled upon hearing this, looking in shock into the depths of the Demon God Ruins, the other party actually recognized the Human Emperor Tower, which was an artifact from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, how could the isolated Ancient Emperor Realm have knowledge of it.
But after the supreme existence in the depths of the Demon God Ruins uttered this, it immediately faded away, even the gaze that illuminated the heavens receded, no longer appearing, allowing many powerful beings in the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain to involuntarily breathe a sigh of relief.
Ye Chen too breathed a sigh of relief, his clothes all drenched, moistened by sweat.
Because the pressure from the master of the Demon God Ruins was too terrifying, reaching an unbelievable degree, rarely seen in his life.
He even felt that even if he could fully utilize the power of the Gulan World and the Power of Faith, they would not be a match for the master of the Demon God Ruins.
At this moment, Ye Chen unexpectedly had an illusion of having escaped death.
Just when everyone was breathing a collective sigh of relief, a figure suddenly appeared from within the Demon God Ruins.
It was a knight, donned in battle-worn and scarred old combat armor, looking very ancient, with white hair streaked with age and a face lined with wrinkles left by time, with dim and faded old eyes.
Even his mount was a decrepit lame horse, weak and scrawny, carrying the Old Knight out of the Demon God Ruins one shaky step at a time, with a half-broken stone spear in his hand.
Though the Old Knight looked truly ancient, his body hunched over, with only a few sparse strands of white hair remaining, the stone spear he held seemed less like a weapon and more like a walking stick as he slowly moved forward, truly resembling an old man whose blood Qi was depleted, no trace of pressure emanated from him at all.
Yet somehow, Ye Chen’s pupils suddenly contracted into needle-point size, sensing a terrifying danger from the depths of his heart, originating from this seemingly decrepit Old Knight, within whose ancient-looking body lay an unprecedented enormous threat, akin to an ancient Fierce Beast dormant, ready to awaken at any moment.
"It is him, the Old Knight guarding the Demon God Ruins, isolated for so many years, yet still not truly dead, surviving in the world."
"This Old Knight has appeared once five thousand years ago; our clan’s ancient texts still record it. Back then, a Supreme Heavenly King from the Human Clan came with overwhelming power, intending to trample upon the Demon God Ruins, but it’s said he was ultimately slain by an Old Knight. I didn’t expect him to still be alive now."
Countless Demon Race experts in the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain were all shocked because this Old Knight was too extraordinary, having lived long enough to witness his appearance five thousand years ago.
And five thousand years ago, this seemingly extremely old Old Knight forcefully slaughtered a generation of Human Clan Heavenly King.
Who would have thought that after five thousand years, countless Great Generation Geniuses, Great Sect Leaders, and Ancient Country Emperors have long since sat down and turned to dust in the long river of time, yet the Old Knight guarding the Demon God Ruins still lives in the world, defying belief.
Needless to say, he is absolutely an indescribably terrifying peerless Old Immortal existence, beyond imagined fear.
Ye Chen took in every voice from the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain, clearly hearing the words of those strong beings, his heart sinking, and he was equally appalled.
To have lived for five thousand years and to have once slaughtered a Heavenly King, does it not mean this Old Knight is at least an existence of an Ancient Great Power?
Thinking of this possibility, it was impossible not to be shocked, for if even the guardian Old Knight was at the level of a Great Power, how powerful must the existence within the Demon God Ruins be.
Ye Chen had no choice but to maintain utmost vigilance, not daring to let his guard down, with the Human Emperor Tower above him, the Power of Faith boiling, and even the Heavenly Desolation quietly lying dormant in his brow, ready to awaken at any time.
The Old Knight’s dim old eyes did not emit a slightest ripple of Dao Wave as he looked slowly at Ye Chen, across an unknown distance of void, and shook his head, "You needn’t worry, old man merely came out on behalf of my lord to relay a message."
