# Chapter 583: Divine Mansion Appears

"Swish!"

That figure flickered and vanished, disappearing after just a brief flash.

"Does a 'Divine Spirit Remnant' really exist?" Duan De's face turned pale. Inside the small iron cage in his sleeve, nine beams of light shot out from the crown of the spirit mouse's head, exceptionally dazzling.

"Ancient gods, radiant and glorious, but the Divine Spirit Remnant born after death is the embodiment of evil—a demon that cannot be defeated!"

At this moment, the others were not paying attention and had not seen it, because at this time, the three Half-Step Great Powers of the Xiao Family were chasing after them from behind, preventing them from focusing.

"Ye, you little brat, I'll pull your tendons, strip your bones, and light you up like a lantern!" Xiao Zhi's voice was icy cold. He extended a large hand and sacrificed a thousand-zhang-tall purple-bronze Eight Trigrams Furnace, smashing it down.

Purple flames surged into the sky, instantly collapsing a great mountain. Rocks flew through the air, giant boulders danced about—it possessed tremendous deterrent power, because now no one could fly, making it very difficult to dodge.

"Clang!"

Dongfang Ye swung his Wolf Fang Great Club, sending countless boulders weighing tens of thousands of jin flying in all directions. The barbarian's divine strength was astonishing, possessing the power to uproot mountains.

"Bang!" "Bang!"...

Jue Youqing's white robes were immaculate. In her hand, a branch of the Bodhi tree, like a small dragon holding a leaf, was rugged yet adorned with life, flowing with hazy, colorful mist. With a gentle sweep, large swaths of giant rocks landed steadily.

Everyone's expression changed. This pure and beautiful woman was unfathomable—she did not counterattack, only passively defended, yet she made many of the Xiao Family members wary.

None of them could fly. Except for Ye Fan, who had the Stride Art, everyone else's speed was slower than usual, and they could only run on the ground.

"Rise!"

Ye Fan stood between two cliffs that were almost connected. Suddenly, he let out a great roar. With one hand supporting each, he lifted both cliffs.

He hurled them with his right hand. A several-hundred-zhang-tall stone cliff crashed toward the three Half-Step Great Powers. Unable to fly, they had no way to dodge and could only sacrifice their weapons to shatter it.

"Boom!"

Dust and smoke shot into the sky. The three Half-Step Great Powers sneered coldly as they activated their ancient treasures. Although the stone mountain could not harm them, it did slow their pace.

"Hum!"

The void trembled. Ye Fan's entire body radiated brilliant light as he lifted another stone mountain. His blood energy surged, his essence and qi surged like a tide, all pouring into this stone mountain.

His divine power was like a surging river, never drying up. Now, fully activating a not-so-large stone mountain, the scene was somewhat terrifying—the entire mountain was glowing.

"Thud!"

Ye Fan hurled it with tremendous force. This time, it struck the Xiao Family experts on the other side, where there were no Half-Step Great Powers stationed, only cultivators in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

"A sun crossing the sky!"

In the distance, many onlookers exclaimed. That stone mountain was glowing all over, blazing intensely, truly like a massive sun streaking across the sky—extremely terrifying.

To conceal his identity, Ye Fan transformed his divine power into azure-gold, even his body shimmering with a green luster. His divine power was astonishing, like a sea pouring into the stone mountain.

"Fall back quickly!"

The Xiao Family members all changed color. Unable to fly, such a stone mountain crashing down with such terrifying energy fluctuations was truly frightening.

"He's inhuman—lifting and throwing mountains with a wave of his hand!"

"Divine power like a sea—cannot be fought head-on!"

They quickly discovered that this stone mountain was terrifyingly excessive. Every inch was infused with divine power, endless and boundless, drowning the sky.

"Boom!"

The azure-gold stone mountain fell. Many magical treasures were shattered by the impact of divine power, light cascading down like the Milky Way.

"Not good!" The three Half-Step Great Powers were alarmed. They each sacrificed their magical treasures and struck at the stone mountain.

"Pop!"

The stone mountain shattered, debris flying everywhere. But the divine power became even more violent, like a torrential downpour, shooting across the sky, falling like blades.

"Ah..."

Finally, screams rang out. Someone had suffered from the Divine Spirit Remnant in the midst of destruction, finally meeting their match.

The group was both tense and speechless. This damn fatty had a thick face—grave-robbing and tomb-raiding, yet he described it as roaming the ancient tombs of the world, with quite an air of a lonely master.

"A hundred people have died already. Hurry and leave..." Behind them, terrified cries came. The crowd fled in panic, running for their lives, not daring to stop.

"That's not an underground palace—it's a mass burial ground. I saw the scene underground—rows of ancient graves, with things crawling out of them!" Someone saw this scene and shouted out, making everyone even more uneasy.

On ordinary days, if they saw ghostly soldiers or ghostly horses, they wouldn't care at all. But this was an Immortal Burial Ground—the non-humans jumping out were absolutely not to be provoked.

"Damn it, I think I saw a patch of old graves too." Duan De's expression was uncomfortable. He had spent years walking through underground ancient tombs, but he was still somewhat uneasy. "This damn place is very wrong. Great Emperors have come here, but it might not be an Emperor's Mansion."

"Endless cliffs—this is a Nine-Absolute Land. Didn't I already deduce that? Everything will be annihilated." The Old Blind Man muttered.

People couldn't help but think of the picture Ye Fan had carved—an immortal lying on his side, as if lying dead here. This place might truly live up to its name, being a place for burying immortals.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a violent tremor came from afar. Everyone was shocked. There, it was like ocean waves surging—a stretch of rock undulated like waves, then shattered.

"What happened?!"

People were astonished. Three hundred and sixty-five stone mountains had collapsed at the same time, surging like terrifying waves. The energy fluctuations sent many people flying into the high sky.

"Heavens, could a Sage have made a move? Too terrifying!"

"Hum!"

The void was like a tattered scroll painting, trembling violently. Then, those three hundred and sixty-five stone mountains on the ground ceased to exist forever, turning into dust.

Everyone's face turned pale. They could hardly believe this, their hearts feeling oppressed, almost suffocating.

Above that ruined area, a dozen people stood in mid-air. The Imperial Lords of the four great divine dynasties of the Central Province, several divine monks from the Western Desert, the Demon Lord and War Lord of the Southern Ridge—they could fly, not being restrained!

"Boom!"

An ancient mountain slowly rose from underground, like the moon rising over the sea—magnificent and beautiful, captivating people's hearts.

The divine mountain did not tower into the clouds, but it was majestic and imposing, giving people the illusion of an emperor among mountains—grand and awe-inspiring.

"The cave dwelling of an ancient Great Emperor—they found the true entrance!" The Old Blind Man changed color.

Duan De was also startled. After careful observation, he said, "There are always people better than others. I thought I was the only one who had understood the art of tomb study, but I didn't expect that among these great powers, there are also those who understand."

At the base of the great mountain, there was a pair of enormous stone doors, engraved with two ancient characters that no one recognized.

"These are ancient divine script from the Primordial Era!" someone exclaimed. Some senior figures furrowed their brows.

"I know why there is the demon called the Divine Spirit Remnant. This place buries a deity from before the Primordial Era—a cave dwelling from a distant time we cannot understand!" the Old Blind Man muttered to himself.

"A human Great Emperor should have come here. He must have left some mechanism or verified something." Duan De's expression shifted unpredictably.

"Before the Primordial Era, were there truly undying supreme deities?" Jue Youqing was startled. Holding the green Bodhi branch, the golden lotus mark on her forehead flowed with immortal light.

"In ancient times, could immortals really have existed? What relation does this place have to the Immortal Domain?" The barbarian was full of doubt and confusion.

"Divine Spirit Remnant—ancient deity—immortal..." Ye Fan muttered to himself. He suddenly thought of the divine thought voice he had heard before the desolate hut and ancient tree, which contained the words "Immortal Emperor."

He raised his head, staring at this ancient mansion, his heart filled with shock. The Immortal Emperor had come here. A human Great Emperor had come here. Could it be that there really was some great secret?
