The Eternal World

Zhang Chao rubbed his chin.

It seems that there are quite a few people in this world.

The things that he had just subdued were extremely rare …

However, what could be used to bind so many people in such a manner in this world?

Unless …

Suddenly, he remembered the endless dried up bones inside the palace of bones …

Could it be that there was some connection between these people and those bones?

In that instant, a bold hypothesis appeared in his mind.

However, this hypothesis was very likely to be true!

Everyone in this world, were the souls of those withered bones!

This was because those bones were used as bricks and cement to construct the great hall. Moreover, many special methods were used to bind them together with their souls.

As for this world, it was the place to carry the imprisoned souls and enslave them, becoming a loyal believer. It constantly contributed its prayers and faith power to increase the strength of this so-called bird spirit.

If this guess was true, it would be too frightening.

Furthermore... Who exactly was that bird spirit?

Zhang Chao faintly felt that there was a hint of the devil's scent.

He tried to ask these people, but they would not give him any meaningful information other than glaring at him with hostility.

"Looks like if I want to understand this strange world further, I'll have to find that black-robed man!" Zhang Chao sighed, all of them were just victims, their souls were trapped here, although their bodies were created using some huge method, they looked like flesh and blood, but it was just an illusion.

They had all been imperceptibly controlled by someone. Perhaps even their memories had been tampered with. This was the highest level of brainwashing.

Zhang Chao was very clear on this point.

Furthermore, that black robed man had told him that if he was allowed to go to the Sacred City, all sorts of traps would be set up for him.

To walk into a trap?

He couldn't help but laugh lightly.

Since he had no other choice, he could only go for Tiger Mountain, knowing that there were tigers in the mountain.

Only after he had leapt into the air did Zhang Chao lift his hand and point towards the vines on the ground, removing them all.

All those who were trapped had also regained their freedom.

But they did not appreciate it, and without any fear, they all roared at Zhang Chao.

However, with their cultivation, they could not even fly to the sky, and it did not affect their berserk attacking desire in the slightest. They all raised their hands and activated their battle skills to attack Zhang Chao, and threw various weapons into the air.

Zhang Chao did not mind, as he raised his hand and pressed it down. Immediately, a burst of spirit energy rumbled out, blocking all the attacks.

He didn't intend to waste any more time with these people, so he jumped and sped towards the south.

Along the way, he saw dozens of smaller cities, and within each one, there were at least hundreds of thousands of people.

He estimated that he had seen at least tens of thousands of people in this world.

However, this was only the tip of the iceberg.

Judging from the skeletons in the Bone Temple, it would take at least tens of thousands of people to build such a large hall.

But that was only a hall.

Who knows where else in the underground passage would use countless human bones to do other things.

Not long after, he confirmed his thoughts.

From a distance, the closer they got to the Holy City, the more concentrated the construction became. Also, from the sky, all of the cities were built according to the shape of a ring around a huge city.

"Sacred City?" Zhang Chao flew all the way above the Sacred City, and looked down at the city from above.

In the center of the city was an enormous metallic skeleton. On the skull of that skeleton was a seven-colored skull. Furthermore, there were four pagodas surrounding the skeleton. At the top of each of the pagoda's towers was a large bell.

"Heretic, you really came!" Soon after, the black-robed man's voice rang out from below.

"If you have any tricks up your sleeves, just use them. I'll follow suit!" The corner of Zhang Chao's mouth rose as he said this in a clear voice.

"Hmph, you're already at the end of your life and you're still so arrogant?" Alright, then I'll let you experience the abilities of the Great bird spirit! " As the black robed man spoke, his figure flashed, and he directly appeared in front of Zhang Chao.

Black mist surrounded his body and he was filled with killing intent.

This time, Zhang Chao could confirm that the aura of the black-robed man was Demon Qi!

"The devil's lackey?" Zhang Chao coldly snorted in disdain, "Do you know me? How did you know I was here? "

No matter who you are, as long as you barge into this place, you will not be able to escape the Lord Bird God's detection. It looks like you were forcefully sent here by that damnable fellow, right? The black-robed man laughed savagely.

"Damn thing? "You mean …" Zhang Chao's expression changed, he had been forcefully sent here, yes, that's right, that's true!

"Stop pretending to be stupid, you said that I'm a lackey, then aren't you the same? It's just the same for us! " The black gowned person did not intend to answer Zhang Chao's question. Instead, he spoke sinisterly: "However, since you're here, you should stay here forever!"

As he spoke, he took out a small box.

This box was filled with an extremely thick demonic aura, causing Zhang Chao's heart to tremble.

Magic treasure?

He quickly made preparations to deal with it.

The black robed man lifted his hand and opened the box. He then took out a piece of the box. Feather!

Black feathers!

However, the moment the feather was taken out, the sky changed color. The original ten thousand li of emptiness now had dark clouds rolling about. The space was trembling as if it was on the verge of collapsing.

"What a terrifying pressure, what powerful moqi, even this alternate space can't withstand it?" Zhang Chao's pupils dilated. If just one feather was so tyrannical, then what kind of existence was the owner of the feather?

"What is it? Scared? I'm not afraid to tell you, this is a feather from my! " The black-robed man sneered.

"Eh? bird spirit... Is it really a bird? " Zhang Chao's eyes widened in shock, this was way beyond his imagination.

"Hmph, ignorant fool, looks like you don't even know the fame of Lord Bird God?" The black-robed man snorted disdainfully, then said haughtily: "Lord Bird God is one of the Four Great Demon Masters under the Demon God Ancestor, and even more so a black phoenix transformed from the four ancient monsters. It is unique in this world!"

"Uh, so you were talking about … It's a big bird! " Zhang Chao suddenly remembered, who the hell did he think it was?

As far as he knew, the Demon God was the lord of the 19th Heaven, and because of the Demon God, the 19th Heaven was also called the Demon World.

And under the command of the Demon God, there were four great Demon Masters, namely Blood Moon God, Big Bird, Divine Might and Hawkeye.

Amongst them, Blood Moon God Zhang Chao had already interacted with him before, although the one he was facing was only his left hand.

Now, he actually bumped into Big Bird's man.

Needless to say, this entire world, as well as that Great Hall of Bones, must be related to the giant bird.

However, the Blood Moon God was split into pieces and suppressed in different places, so what would happen to the big bird?

In any case, it was definitely not a good person.

It had to be said that these Demon Generals were abnormally powerful. Blood Moon God's left hand alone was enough to make the sky and earth go dark, and a single feather on this big bird had such a huge amount of magic.

"How dare you be so disrespectful to Lord Bird God, your sin is unforgivable!" The black robed man flew into a rage as he immediately raised the feather in his hand and pointed at it.

"Buzz!" The entire feather rippled with waves of demonic qi, and immediately turned into black ropes that tied Zhang Chao up! Boom!

"Ai?" Zhang Chao was startled, and immediately channeled his spirit energy in an attempt to struggle free, but to his surprise, he found that the black ropes were extremely strange, as though they had sucked all of his strength in an instant!

"Hmph hmph, you're finished. Prepare to become a sacrifice!" The black robed man kept his feather and started to laugh complacently. He then raised his hand to grab Zhang Chao's shoulder and pulled him down.

"So that's how it is. The feather's power isn't an attack but a restriction!" Zhang Chao's heart was moved. Even though all of his strength had been sucked away by the black rope in a short period of time, he was not worried.

He could feel that within his dantian, only the wood attribute primordial spirit had lost its luster, while the other six pills were not affected in the slightest.

Even if he couldn't use the power of the primordial spirit, he was still a cultivator of Yuan Dan Stage.

As for the black-robed man in front of him, his strength had reached the Nascent Soul stage. He was probably around the same level as Green Mountain Sect's Sect Leader Qing Shang.

Furthermore, it was impossible for him to continue displaying the feathers of the Demon Lord. With the strength of this black cloaked man, he likely did not have the ability to do so.

In short, he would pretend to be captured, and then observe the situation to see what was going on with the other side.

He landed in front of the gigantic metallic skull, and directly kicked Zhang Chao's leg, "Kneel!"

Zhang Chao did not resist and obediently knelt on the ground.

At a time like this, he had to endure.

After that, a few more black robed men ran over. Seeing Zhang Chao kneeling there, they could not help but laugh out loud.

"Of course, with the Lord Bird God's feathers, wouldn't it be easy to capture this kind of trash?" The man in black who caught Zhang Chao said proudly.

"What are you going to do with him? Sacrifice him to the Lord Bird God? " one of them asked.

"Of course, Lord Bird God has already lived for countless years, there are no longer any new offerings!"

"I feel that this is inappropriate!"

"Even if the Lord Bird God wanted such a person's flesh and blood as a sacrifice, it would be useless!"

"It would be better to preserve his original form, then change his mind and thoughts. By using him, I might be able to enter that place!"

"That place?" The few black-robed men couldn't help but be stunned upon hearing this …
