Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 737: Chapter 172: The Battlefield of Yesteryear (Second Update)

Under the bridge, everyone rested for quite a long time.

In the Ancient Battlefield, there are no sun or moon, no day or night; time here seems to exist in a state of pause.

However, everyone knows that time hasn’t truly stopped here.

When Xi Qianxue’s spiritual power was restored, Mu Qingge and the others realized it was already their third day in the Ancient Battlefield! Only three days, yet they’ve experienced so many strange events. Who knows how much danger still awaits them, and how many opportunities are beckoning!

”Let’s keep going,” Ji Yaohua unfolded the fan and fanned himself briskly.

In that moment, he truly had an air of charm, resembling the image of a noble gentleman. However, his graceful demeanor lasted but a moment before he reverted to his playful nature.

Ji Yaohua, with a grin, approached Mu Qingge and tried to please her by saying, ”Qingge, your Linglong Spear is so powerful. You should lead the way, and I’ll cover the rear!”

Mu Qingge nodded in amusement.

That was her plan anyway.

The four adjusted their formation, with Mu Qingge and Ji Yaohua covering the front and back, while Xi Qianxue and Ying Ze walked in the middle, watching the sides as they continued toward the Ancient Battlefield.

Besides Mu Qingge having other purposes, the remaining three were here for training.

Since it’s training, it’s natural to charge into unseen danger, and even when danger is visible, to still forge ahead!

The four walked along the path for quite a while.

Suddenly, their view opened up widely, becoming unobstructed and very expansive.

The ubiquitous black mountains along the way receded into the distance, becoming faint silhouettes in their eyes. Those silhouettes were hidden and blurred by distant fog barriers.

And under their feet, the ground was flat and wide...

”What place is this?” Ji Yaohua poked his head out from behind, looking forward in shock.

Before them lay a vast expanse of flat ground that seemed to stretch endlessly. This ground was smooth like a mirror, reflecting a certain sheen.

Walking on this surface made everyone cautious, fearing they might shatter these mirrors and fall through.

Mu Qingge lightly placed one foot down onto the surface.

Dong!

Suddenly, her footsteps echoed throughout the whole space.

The sound of her footsteps seemed amplified and echoed in this area.

It resonated nine times before fading away.

”Damn!” Ji Yaohua exclaimed in surprise.

And immediately after, the echoed ’Damn! damn damn damn damn damn——’ reverberated around them.

The sound kept resonating, making Ji Yaohua shrink his neck awkwardly.

After the echoes faded, Mu Qingge whispered, ”Looks like we can’t speak loudly or make too much noise here.”

The three of them nodded, especially Ji Yaohua, who nodded with extra vigor.

With everyone mentally prepared, Mu Qingge said, ”Let’s go.”

With that, she was the first to step inside. The other three followed closely; the eerie atmosphere made them extra careful, watching the surroundings for any movement.

Dong dong dong dong dong——!

Despite their caution, each step’s sound still echoed around them.

Coming closer, Mu Qingge discovered that the surface here, though mirror-like, was more akin to glass. Because beneath where they tread, there were things visible to them!

”This... What are these...” Xi Qianxue followed behind Mu Qingge. As Mu Qingge noticed the ground beneath her, Xi Qianxue did too and saw what lay inside.

Her words drew the attention of Ying Ze and Ji Yaohua, making them look down, their eyes suddenly contracting.

After a moment, Ji Yaohua spoke in a trembling voice, ”Are they dead, or just asleep?”

Suddenly, a cold wind blew across his neck, causing chills to run down his spine.

Mu Qingge’s eyes narrowed slightly as she frowned, taking a few more steps to kneel down and place a hand on the ground, observing the scene below.

She crouched down, and the other three followed suit, carefully studying the world beneath their feet.

Below them, as if another world were sealed beneath this transparent surface, a world tens of thousands of years old. Beneath their feet were countless people, wielding weapons, expressions fierce, mutually engaging in combat.

”Is this a scene from that war long ago?” Xi Qianxue stood up, murmuring.

The scene presented underground was truly shocking. Even though she was a Goddess, she’d never seen Divine Clan individuals, let alone Demon Clan ones.

It turns out, the Divine and Demon Clans aren’t much different from them.

They have the same appearance, the difference, perhaps, is just in strength!

”Are these real or just illusions?” Ying Ze said in shock.

Ji Yaohua said at this moment, ”What I’m more worried about is, if they are real and not dead, just sealed inside. What if, by accident, we break this open, and they come back to life, what do we do?”

His words made Ying Ze and Xi Qianxue frown.

This time, they couldn’t deny that Ji Yaohua’s words might not be nonsense.

If these Divine and Demon Clans from hundreds of thousands of years ago really wake up, it would surely be a disaster for them.

Ying Ze looked out, the smooth ground was bottomless, no one knew how many God and Demon could be underneath!

Mu Qingge slowly stood up, her gaze directed afar, and said to the three, ”Let’s keep moving forward and see.”

Her heart was excited. After these days of venturing in, seeing the intact corpses of God and Demon meant there was hope of obtaining Divine Demon Blood.

However, Ying Ze’s words, along with Ji Yaohua’s, caught her attention.

She couldn’t determine if the scenes before her were real or fake. And even if they were real, what if they weren’t dead, just as Ji Yaohua said, sealed... What if she opened it, and they resurrected?

She was not arrogant enough to think she had the power to defeat the God and Demon from hundreds of thousands of years ago!

So she decided to keep moving forward and continue observing.

The four of them walked silently on the ground, constantly echoing in their ears was that infinitely amplified sound of footsteps.

As they delved deeper, the world beneath their feet grew even more breathtaking.

In that transparent underground, they not only saw the scenes of the Divine and Demon Clans warring, but also the collisions of chariots, the ferocious roars of Beast Clan mounts, the clang of metal, seemingly echoing endlessly in the ear.

The four of them felt firsthand the brutality of that ancient war.

They saw the ferocity and anger on the faces of the Demon Clan and the indifference and killing intent on the faces of the Divine Clan. What triggered that war, and which side initiated it?

Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and it’s impossible to know.

The people buried underground were so lifelike. It was as if they were sealed here at a certain moment during the great war. Their postures and expressions have been preserved for hundreds of thousands of years.

”I seem to feel the cruelty of that great war!” Ji Yaohua retracted his joking manner and became somewhat serious.

Since they arrived, he saw too much death; this ancient battlefield was a massive tomb!

”Perhaps these scenes can give us some real insights into that war from hundreds of thousands of years ago.” Ying Ze said in a deep voice.

Mu Qingge’s heart stirred, and she asked, ”How is that war depicted in the Divine Hall?”

This question was clearly directed at Xi Qianxue.

So, after Mu Qingge’s voice fell, Ji Yaohua and Ying Ze also looked at her.

Xi Qianxue pursed her lips and said, ”The records in the Divine Hall merely state that the war ended in victory for the Divine Clan. Because that great war destroyed many Mortal Worlds, the great powers of the Divine Clan, unwilling to see the world devastated, proposed when the Demon Clan offered terms of surrender, to combine the strength of both clans to completely seal this place, preventing the destruction from spreading further. And since then, the Divine and Demon Clans on the Divine Demon Continent have delineated boundaries, setting up a barrier on the border between the two clans, preventing the Divine Clan from crossing and the Demon Clan from entering.”

’Set up a barrier?’ Mu Qingge frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Si Mo could clearly get information from the Divine Clan’s side, which meant he had spies within the Divine Clan or he had a way to enter the Divine Clan’s territory.

As for that war...

Mu Qingge just listened; she understood what it meant to write, what book history meant—all were artificially processed.

”I once heard from my master that after the great war, the Demon Realm was in a state of disunity. After the old master of the Demon Realm perished tens of thousands of years ago, the new king was very formidable, and in just ten thousand years, he unified the entire Demon Realm, consolidating the power of the Demon Realm, seemingly ready to stir again.” Xi Qianxue added a piece of secret news.

The speaker unintentionally, the listener intentionally.

Mu Qingge’s heart stirred; for some reason, she always felt that the new king of the Demon Realm Xi Qianxue spoke of was Si Mo!

It was no longer a secret that Si Mo was of the Demon Clan, she knew it in her heart.

And in her eyes, Si Mo was definitely not someone who would be willing to remain subordinate!

So, he was likely the new king of the Demon Realm!

Mu Qingge felt her heartbeat quicken, seemingly gaining a clearer view of Si Mo. Actually, she could have asked Si Mo about this, and Si Mo wouldn’t hide it from her.

Yet, the two seemed to enjoy this game of peeping, one not asking, one not saying, letting everything gradually reveal itself.

”Who cares about the Divine Clan or Demon Clan, anyway, they have nothing to do with us. The Divine Demon Continent...” Ji Yaohua smiled and said, ”It’s too far away from us.”

What he said was true; indeed, in the past few thousand years, there’s been no legend of anyone entering the Divine Demon Continent.

However, Xi Qianxue suddenly said, ”No! You’re wrong, the Divine Demon Continent is not far from us at all! Five years from now, the Divine Tomb will open, and it’s said that this time when the Divine Tomb opens, the Demon Tomb will also open simultaneously, and there might be overlapping areas in the two places.”

”What did you say!”

The first to be shocked was not Ji Yaohua, nor was it Mu Qingge, but Ying Ze!
