Woooo...

Ripples appeared in the void, and the mist dissipated. Jiang Xuan also saw the owner of that hand clearly. It was the figure who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground. The speed was so fast that he instantly arrived in front of him the moment he opened his eyes.

This was an ancient person, a middle-aged figure with a very ordinary appearance. The armor on his body had long been eroded by the mist in the ancient hall, shimmering with a dark light. His pair of gray eyes were devoid of life, completely dead, but they stared intently at Jiang Xuan, causing his soul to tremble.

"Want... fortune, fight... with me!"

But at this moment, the figure in front of him actually spoke, but it seemed that he hadn't spoken for too long. The voice was very hoarse, revealing a strange aura that made people feel uneasy.

"Fortune?!"

Jiang Xuan thought of the mysterious runes branded on the ancient monument. He didn't expect that everything was fine before, but just an ancient monument caused such a change.

He quickly looked around. There was no movement in the depths of the mist. It seemed that one ancient monument would only activate one corpse.

How similar was this to the creatures in the ominous presence? But the difference was that the creatures in the ominous presence only appeared during the process of condensing immortal energy, wanting to block the path of living beings.

But the figure in front of him was guarding the ancient monument. Both were endowed with some kind of will. The creatures in the ominous presence were due to the darkness in that warship, related to one of the Seven Kings, and the present one...

Jiang Xuan's expression was heavy as he silently looked towards the direction of the Emperor's Throne.

"A battle?"

Looking at the figure in front of him, Jiang Xuan was thoughtful. After a moment, a divine blade appeared in his hand.

"Kill!"

Since he was curious, he prepared to investigate. Moreover, he was now trapped in this damned place. If he wanted to leave, he had to explore this ancient hall. If forced, even if he felt strange, he had to take action.

Clang!

The Years Blade fell, and the figure in front of him directly used his hand to meet it head-on. And the most terrifying thing was that when the divine blade collided with his arm, sparks actually flew, as if two weapons were colliding!

"Chi!"

But Jiang Xuan had no time to think. A hand wrapped in gray mist suddenly struck. Jiang Xuan also attacked, severing the void and slashing out with a palm, colliding fiercely with it.

This collision made a particularly muffled sound, like immortal drums booming, like immortal soldiers colliding. If it were an ordinary person, even just hearing this sound would cause their blood to become unstable.

"Comparable to the physical body refined by the *Chaos Gang Dou Jing*?"

One must know that the essence of the *Chaos Gang Dou Jing* was to refine the physical body into an supreme divine artifact. Especially after Jiang Xuan fully opened the Eight Gates of the Dunjia Formation, his physical body was constantly nourished by the divine power gushing out from the Gate of Death. Even treasures of the True One realm rarely could hurt him.

But the ancient corpse in front of him was actually comparable to him in terms of physical body!

This made Jiang Xuan couldn't help but become focused. This was the first time he had seen such a "creature." The strength of its physical body was unimaginable. Even the Fallen Divine Child was far inferior to it.

He was not sure whether this was the same as the creatures in the ominous presence, constantly changing according to the strength of the living being. If that was the case, then everything in front of him would be troublesome.

Across from him, that creature stood in the mist, surrounded by gray fog. Its pair of eyes emitted a dark light, as if everything had fallen silent and died, exuding an unspeakable terror and power.

Chi!

Jiang Xuan took the initiative to attack, blasting out with a punch, as if a void was shattering, with the scene of thousands of stars falling, patches of bone inscriptions intertwined, and mysterious symbols blooming, its divine might shaking the world!

However, that creature did not block it. Instead, it directly attacked, surging forward. Its physical body actually autonomously emitted a dark light. From the part shrouded by Jiang Xuan's punch, a dark light flew out, and then erupted in the void.

"Physical body giving birth to anomalies? Able to autonomously defend?"

Jiang Xuan was shocked. This was a common situation for ancient corpses. Even if the many divine abilities of the past were erased, there were still many secrets hidden in the physical body, capable of guarding oneself and suppressing powerful enemies.

While shocked, Jiang Xuan's left hand's five fingers were also like dragon claws, tearing fiercely in the void, the entire space was torn apart. If anyone else was hit, they would definitely be torn apart instantly.

However, the creature's physical body clanged, like blacksmithing, sparks flying everywhere, and that part emitted a dark light, counterattacking towards Jiang Xuan.

"Bang!"

His physical body trembled violently. Jiang Xuan slashed out horizontally, with colorful light around him. He displayed the great divine ability of the True Phoenix race.

Dong!

It was as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, and the void in the ancient hall was collapsing. The mist was shaken far away, but the power could not spread further. There was a more terrifying force preventing everything. This made Jiang Xuan more cautious in secret.

In this ancient hall, the danger was not just the creature in front of him. It could even be said that this creature was not dangerous at all. It could only be regarded as a kind of test. The real crisis was the red-haired figure on the Emperor's Throne, and the unknown in the mist.

"Kill!"

Jiang Xuan attacked again, this time truly displaying his ultimate combat power. The Kun Peng and True Phoenix treasured techniques were all used, his entire body shrouded in five-colored light, like immortal flames, wanting to incinerate everything.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

...

The void continued to vibrate and be torn apart. The area surrounded by mist had been torn apart, and even divine flames were burning, dark light flickering, and intertwining with each other.

This was terrifying to the extreme. Any wisp of aftermath could erase a Godly Flame realm cultivator, and even True One realm beings could not intervene in their current battle, they would be instantly annihilated.

Pfft!

After hundreds of rounds of battle, Jiang Xuan seized the opportunity and slashed out with his blade. The sea turned to dust, directly severing one of the creature's arms. The severed arm spurted out a patch of black blood and flew out.

But at that instant, dark light flickered, turning into strands of silk, and fiercely plunged into the severed arm that fell on the ground, directly reattaching it, as good as new!

However, this creature no longer attacked, but directly returned, re-sitting cross-legged in front of the ancient monument, its pair of eyes closed again, like deathly silence, with no spiritual light appearing.

"This is considered... passing the test?"

Jiang Xuan tentatively stepped forward. This time he was not blocked again, and smoothly arrived in front of the ancient monument, able to clearly see the runes above.

Jiang Xuan also stood in front of the ancient monument and began to comprehend. Of course, he did not relax his vigilance. The Yin-Yang Treasure Furnace floated, and immortal light fell, covering his physical body. The Yin Furnace was also open at all times. If there was a great crisis, he could immediately hide inside.

"Netherworld Purgatory? A great divine ability?!"

Several days later, Jiang Xuan gained something, comprehending a great divine ability, with great power, and even more endless potential!

Although it was not what Jiang Xuan thought, a incomplete Nine Nether Hound secret technique, it was also beyond imagination. Moreover, there were nine ancient monuments here, which meant nine great divine abilities, definitely a great opportunity, a great fortune!

Jiang Xuan did not think too much and walked towards the next ancient monument. He also encountered a test, and it was even stronger than the last one. However, after a bloody battle, he also smoothly obtained the second great divine ability.

And in the following time, Jiang Xuan constantly fought with the creatures in front of the nine ancient monuments. But the creatures in front of the ancient monuments were also stronger than the last. The strongest creature directly fought Jiang Xuan to a draw, Jiang Xuan fought half to death before defeating it.

This was also the most tragic battle since Jiang Xuan entered Immortal Ancient. Half of his body was crippled, and he had to hide in the Yin Furnace to recuperate.

Fortunately, the golden lake water in the Yang Furnace contained immeasurable wonderful uses, comparable to divine medicine and holy medicine. After being refined by the Yin-Yang Treasure Furnace, it could be perfectly absorbed by Jiang Xuan, and quickly allowed him to fully recover.

Of course, at the same time, he also refined the primordial spirits of the Fallen Divine Child and the other person. This was purely accidental injury. The furnace fire in the Yang Furnace did not recognize people, and he could not control it. With a fire down, the two people's primordial spirits directly turned into fly ash.

After recovering, Jiang Xuan also obtained the ninth great divine ability. But at the moment he comprehended it, the mist in the ancient hall became more and more turbulent, and then constantly converged, condensing in the void, actually turning into an ancient monument of mist hanging in the void!

Whoosh whoosh ~~

At the same time, the thing Jiang Xuan was most worried about also happened, the Great Dao chains suddenly made a collision sound!
