Divine God Against The Heavens

Due to the lack of time, Ye Xiao was unable to clearly see what it was. Then, a scene that would cause one's complexion to change appeared.

"Ji! Ji!"

Accompanied by many strange cries, the black waters of the pond below became chaotic and restless. One shadow after another emerged from the water.

Ye Xiao looked carefully, and his pupils couldn't help but constrict.

He saw that these black shadows were actually Magical Beasts similar to lizards, but the difference was that these beasts were covered with dark red scales, and sharp spikes were growing on their backs.

At a glance, the entire black pool was filled with this kind of thing.

The largest one was over two meters while the smallest one was only as long as a pair of chopsticks.

In the front, back, left, and right, pairs of eyes that stood erect stared coldly at Ye Xiao and Su Xue Er. It was like that they were waiting for a feast.

Ye Xiao could not help but swallow his saliva, "Are they Blackwater Lizards?"

Blackwater Lizards born as a Fourth Grade Magical Beast. Adult Blackwater Lizards evolved into Sixth Grade Magical Beasts that were equivalent to Martial Ancestor Realm martial artists.

At first glance, Ye Xiao could tell that there were quite a few adult Blackwater Lizards.

This kind of Demonic Beast was good at attacking moving targets. When the target was still, it would be safer. However, it was only relative. No one wanted to stay in this place any longer.

Ye Xiao did not even dare to move his body recklessly, as a very heavy look of seriousness emerged from between his brows. If he were to be here alone, he would not have taken these beasts lightly but this time, Su Xue Er was with him.

He was worried because she was ten meters away from him that could be proved to be dangerous.

Ye Xiao took a long breath and said seriously, "When I count to three, you have to immediately rush to the other side. You must use the shortest amount of time to enter the stone door, I will deal with the front, and leave the rear to you."

With Ye Xiao's current strength and Cultivation, dealing with a mere Blackwater Lizard was not a problem.

However, the problem was that there were hundreds of Blackwater Lizards here and almost all of them were Sixth Grade Magical Beasts. Maybe, this time, he has to use his trump card.

A single Sixth Grade Magical Beast was already equivalent to a Martial Ancestor Realm martial artist. There were hundreds of these beasts here so dealing with them will definitely require Ye Xiao's true strength.

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Su Xue Er was obviously startled. The other party actually said that he would give her his back without worry? Even at this moment, Ye Xiao was actually thinking about her safety.

She knew that she could not help Ye Xiao in his current situation so doing what he told her to do was the best way to help Ye Xiao. Her eyes flashed with determination as she said, "I understand."

"Okay, count to three."

"One, two, three. Go!"

Ye Xiao shouted out loudly. Su Xue Er immediately flew towards the other side of the stone bridge with the fastest speed possible.

However, the instant the two moved, the Blackwater Lizards in the ink pool leaped into the air. They let out strange shrieks from their mouths as they pounced towards the two.

Blackwater Strange Lizards of all sizes blotted out the sky and the earth, just like an uncountable number of locusts.

"Whoosh!"

With a wave of his hand, the Sea Dragon Spear appeared in Ye Xiao's hands.

"Soul Destruction!"

He immediately used the soul destruction to kill dozens of Blackwater Lizards that almost reached the two of them.

"Sea Dragon Descends: First Style, Hands Of Waves!"

Suddenly, Su Xue Er who was still rushing to the other side of the stone bridge was shocked to see the entire area including the black water pond transforming into a vast sea.

"Roar!"

Along with a dragon's roar, countless dragon claws emerged out from the seawater that strikes at the Blackwater Lizards, tearing apart their bodies into countless pieces as a rain of blood fell down the Seawater, colouring it red.

With a single attack, Ye Xiao killed almost half of the Blackwater Lizards here.

At this moment, Su Xue Er has already reached the other side of the stone bridge. Only Ye Xiao was left to go there.

​ After Ye Xiao's attack was over, the vast sea slowly disappeared as the original look of this place was restored.

"Ji! Ji!"

Although half of the Blackwater Lizards were killed by Ye Xiao, there were still more than a hundred lizards looking at him ferociously.

The Blackwater Strange Lizard continued to launch fierce attacks.

"Soul Destruction!"

"Sea Dragon Descends: First Style, Hands Of Waves!"

With another series of attacks, he finally killed almost all of the Fifth and Sixth Grade Blackwater Lizards, leaving behind only Fourth Grade Blackwater Lizards.

A pungent smell of blood filled the entire area. The stone bridge was filled with the countless pieces of corpses of the lizards.

After killing all of them, Ye Xiao finally passed the stone bridge and arrived at the other side of the bridge. Although he was at the Fifth Stage of the Martial Ancestor Realm, the continuous fight made him dead tired.

In front of him was the half-opened stone door but he did not know if there was another danger on the other side of this door or not. So, he decided to rest for a while and only go there after recovering to his peak condition.

His breathing gradually steadied and his body slowly relaxed as well.

Sometime later when he recovered more than half of his strength, he stood up and stepped his foot inside the half-opened stone gate with Su Xue Er.

When they passed the stone gate, they appeared in a very small room. There was nothing in this room except for a large boulder.

Both of them looked at each other and confusion could be clearly seen in their eyes.

Not being able to find anything, Ye Xiao spread his Divine Sense and covered the entire room to sense something but to his surprise. He did not find anything.

Seeing that he could not find anything in this room, he mainly focused his Divine Sense on the boulder and soon, he felt a hollow below the boulder.

"Oh, the bottom of the boulder is hollow."

Ye Xiao walked onto the boulder and said, "Maybe there is something right below here."

Hearing that, Su Xue Er stood up.

"I'll try!"

With that said, a ball of spirit energy condensed in her palm, and she then raised her hand and a ball of condensed white light flew out from her hand and struck the center of the boulder.

"Bam!"

Along with a heavy explosion, the ground shook and the boulder instantly blasted open, revealing a two to three meters wide pit on the ground.

Under the pleasantly surprised gazes of Ye Xiao and Su Xue Er, another black tunnel's entrance appeared on the ground.

"There is actually another passageway here." Ye Xiao said in a surprised voice.

"Let's go!"

"En!"

Both of them entered the black tunnel and started to follow the path inside the black tunnel with the help of Ye Xiao's fire soul that lit up the tunnel.

Not long after, they could once again see the exit of the tunnel. They increased their speed and quickly exited the tunnel.

They once again found themselves inside a room. This room was double the size of the previous room. There was also nothing here except for a statue of a man and four statues of beasts. This man held a sword while four beasts were guarding his right and left.

These were the statues of four beasts, The Azure Dragon, The Vermillion Bird, The White Tiger, and The Black Tortoise.

The Azure dragon and The Vermillion Bird were guarding the man's right side while The White Tiger and The Black Tortoise were guarding the man's left side.

The man being guarded by four holy beasts really looked too domineering.

All four beasts have their mouth open and there was a keyhole inside their mouth, exactly the size of keys that Su Xue Er got after opening the black box.

"Is that the person who left behind that black box? Why is this scene look as though the four Holy Beasts of our Holy Beast Continent are guarding this man? Is he also someone from the Xiao Family?" When Su Xue Er looked at the statues and their positions, she could not help but ask.

"We will know after putting the keys in the keyholes. Why don't you put the keys in their respective holes?" Ye Xiao looked at Su Xue Er and asked her to put the key in the keyholes.
