Chapter 523: The Ancient Gu City

Tao Bolin sat on the Fire Bird and swept his cold gaze across the place. "You want to kill me?"

As soon as he said those words, As soon as he said that, the leader of the Devil Shadow Sect was sent flying dozens of meters away by an invisible force. He then spat out a mouthful of blood.

"This is your lesson. You"re too arrogant!" Tao Bolin said indifferently.

The leader of the Devil Shadow Sect stood up and cupped his hands at Tao Bolin. "Thank you, Pil Master, for showing mercy."

Tao Boing did not even look at him. He closed his old eyes and said quietly, "Let"s go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fire Bird flapped its wings and a beautiful light disappeared from the sky.

The people of Devil Shadow Sect and Seven Dao Alliance began to move.

A black flying ship appeared in front of them, the fifteen men jumped onto the ship and flew towards the horizon.

The people of the Seven Dao Alliance chased after them with their flying ships.

The others all summoned their flying artifacts, which they had prepared beforehand, and stepped onto the path of Venomous Insect City. Some rogue cultivators didn"t have flying ships, but they have flying beasts.

The couple from the Ghost Grandma and Demon Grandpa rode a two-headed flying Snake Beast.

The strength of a two-headed flying snake at the low-level Heaven Rank. The two-headed flying serpent had double attributes, and its body was over twenty meters long. It looked like a flood dragon in the air, and it was hissing ferociously. 

The poisonous scorpion was riding a mid-tier fifth-tier four-winged scorpion king. Its brown wings made strange sounds, and black poisonous mist spread out in all directions. The others were afraid that they wouldn"t be able to dodge it in time, so they didn"t want to get caught in the poisonous mist.

Daoist Kuang was riding an earth-eyed eagle. It was a Mid Stage Heaven Profound Rank beast that he had just subdued. Its eagle eyes could release waves of elemental attacks, and it could make people fall into a coma and lose their ability to defend themselves.

"Don"t you guys have flying ships?" Seeing their flying mounts, Feng Yun couldn"t help but ask curiously.

"Haha... flying ships are boring. The spirit beasts are much more intimidating and fun!"

"Wawawahha.. Thats right!"

All of them replied with the same answer.

Feng Yun sighed lightly then he also took out his flying ship and chased after them.

Feng Yun stood on the deck of the ship and looked at the horizon in the distance. He thought to himself, "I"m coming to Venomous Insect City. Don"t let me return empty-handed!

...

The Venomous Insect City was surrounded by tall mountains and tall mountains. The trees were lush and lush. There were plenty of Hundred Herbs and Spirit Flowers everywhere. The Spirit Beasts growled and chirped.

When a group of Spirit Beasts of High Ranks and powerful human warriors flew over from the sky, those Spirit Beasts were scared to the point that they ran all over the place.

The Fire Bird that was flying like a flaming meteor at the front even displayed its supreme might. Wherever it went, the clouds dissipated, and the fire raged. Behind the Fire Bird, there were flying ships and then three great spirit beasts of four villains. Feng Yun was traveling almost behind.

A few days later, Venomous Insect City gradually appeared in front of them.

This place was the center of the Northern Border. It was once the most glorious city, and it was an ancient legend that was recorded in history.

The Venomous Insect City occupied a vast area. The Seven Dao City that Feng Yun had seen before was a huge city. However, it was much smaller compared to this place.

The tall walls, simple buildings, and s.p.a.cious streets all displayed the once prosperous and fertile scene.

This was also the reason why others wanted to occupy this place.

To be able to become an overlord of this place, was an extremely glorious thing.

Currently, this huge city was filled with desolation and desolation. The sky was filled with an incomparably oppressive and heavy feeling. It was as if it had been filled with unwillingness since the day of the bloodbath. The souls of countless people from the Venomous Insect Clan formed a huge amount of resentment, filling the sky and forming the Ancestor Curse.

All the flying artifacts and flying mounts stopped thousands of meters away from the city.

Everyone looked at the city that was covered in black pressure from afar. An indescribable fear appeared in their hearts.

The reason why this place was called the forbidden zone was because none of the people who had once entered the Venomous Insect City were able to walk out. Even Earth Emperor Stage experts were the same.

Was it because the soul of the Venomous Insect Clan was inside, or was it because of the curse of the Venomous Insect Clan?

No one knew. They only knew that two great divine objects had once appeared in this place: the Heavenly Venomous Insect Divine Arts and the Heavenly Gu Cauldron.

These two were both divine objects that had reached the "Divine" level. No matter where they were, they were filled with extreme temptation. It made people feel like moths flying into a flame as they searched for it one after another.

Along with the pa.s.sage of time, the age became even more numerous. These two great divine abilities had already been forgotten by the people of the world.

However, no one knew who spread the news that these two divine arts still existed in Venomous Insect City. They had gathered all the powers in the Northern Border, and even if they wanted to dig three feet into the ground, they would still search the entire Venomous Insect City. Even if they could not find these two divine arts, they would still open up the Venomous Insect City and make it their new territory and stronghold.

Tao Bolin was the most powerful one in this operation. Everyone knew that he must be aiming for the Heavenly Gu Divine Cauldron of the Venomous Insect Clan. He was a tier 7 alchemist. To him, this divine cauldron was equivalent to another life.

  If he obtained the Heavenly Gu Divine Cauldron, he would be like a tiger adding wings to its wings, raising his alchemy skill to a whole new level.

"Pill Master, are we going straight to the city?" The Vice Alliance Master of the Seven Dao Alliance stepped forward and asked.

Tao Bolin ignored the Vice Alliance Master of the Seven Dao Alliance. Instead, his eyes were fixed on the nearby Venomous Insect City.

After that, his expression turned extremely ugly. Cold sweat dripped down from his forehead.

"No wonder the people who came here can"t come in and out. I think I know what"s going on!" Tao Bolin said faintly.

When Tao Bolin said those words, everyone looked at him in surprise.

This place had already become a forbidden zone for ten thousand years, yet he was able to see through this key with just a glance?

"Sovereign experts are actually extraordinary!" Everyone secretly exclaimed in their hearts.

"What exactly is going on with this city? Pill Master?" All the leaders of the various powers asked in unison.

Tao Bolin frowned and said, "There are large amounts of resentful souls in Gu City!"

"Resentful souls!" Everyone was shocked.

Resentful soul and soul were two different concepts.

  The soul also possessed the original will and thoughts of a martial artist, but the resentful soul only had countless resentment left. It no longer had the will and thoughts of a martial artist before their death, only leaving behind a thick resentment before their death. Bloodl.u.s.t, brutality, hatred, anger... They would never let go of anything that had a life of its own. They would definitely entangle people until they died. This was the so-called resentful soul.

Normally, after a martial artist died, their soul would dissipate into the world. Only souls that had reached the Divine Rank level or above could be immortal. Unless their soul was also heavily wounded by others, they would not die easily. But the resentful soul was different. Normally, a martial artist with a bit of strength would have an obsession in their heart. When they died, they would also leave behind resentment. But this resentment was only a wisp of negative will. It would quickly disappear between the heavens and earth, rarely able to exist in this world.

Presently, there was actually a large amount of Venomous Insect City in Venomous Insect City. What did this mean?

Perhaps there was a powerful restriction placed in Venomous Insect City to prevent these resentful souls from disappearing, allowing them to continue to stay in Venomous Insect City and occupy it without being disturbed by outsiders.

Could this be the mystery of the Venomous Insect City becoming a forbidden zone for humans for ten thousand years?

Most of the people had already believed most of Tao Bolin"s words. Only this kind of evil thing could allow people to enter but not let them leave.

For a moment, all the major powers were hesitating whether to enter or not.

There was a large number of resentful souls inside. They were extremely ferocious and powerful. These resentful souls only targeted soul attacks and did not have much to do with strength.

Anyone"s spiritual sea, which was where their natal soul was located, would forever be the most vulnerable place for all martial artists. Once their soul was swallowed, even a Divine Immortal would not be able to save them.

  "Those who aren"t afraid of death, come in. This old man will go in first!" Tao Bolin ignored the people who were hesitating behind him. He took the lead and flew into Venomous Insect City on his Fire Bird.

Everyone looked at the bold figure with great respect.
