“This is a killing array left behind from the ancient era.”

Qi Ming looked around. The space around him changed. He was currently in a killing array. His surroundings were pitch-black and he could not see his fingers. It was like a dark and silent universe.

The next moment, the ancient killing formation activated.

It transformed into the corresponding killer move.

First, the power of the Five Elements, Metal, was released, turning into countless sharp blades that pierced towards Qi Ming from all directions like ten thousand swords.

“Purity Golden Body.”

Qi Ming used a divine power spell technique, and a faint golden light appeared in his body. He stood motionlessly on the spot. After using the Purity Golden Body, he possessed the heaven-defying ability to resist all techniques.

The countless blades formed by the Five Elements Metal could not injure Qi Ming at all.

The ancient killing formation evolved again, and a boundless sea of fire appeared. The power of flames surged and completely enveloped Qi Ming, but these flames could not burn him at all.

Five Elements Wood, Five Elements Water, Five Elements Earth…

All kinds of killer moves were used.

Qi Ming did not move and was not injured at all.

The ancient killing formation was still changing killer moves.

During this period, Qi Ming looked at this ancient killing array. Because the killing array had existed for too long, and coupled with the incomplete Yinglong Temple, under the corrosion of time, this ancient killing array had many flaws.

He soon found the loopholes and flaws.

“Break.”

Clang!

Qi Ming used his sword finger and pointed again. Sword qi stabbed out and accurately hit the flaw and flaw of this ancient killing formation. Cracks appeared in the surrounding darkness.

With Qi Ming’s point, a gap appeared.

Then, the cracks quickly spread out and covered the entire ancient killing array. With a bang, the entire killing array space shattered like a mirror.

They all dissipated.

“If it was a complete ancient killing formation, I’m afraid it would be very difficult for me to find the flaw, but this incomplete ancient killing formation is much weaker.” Qi Ming said.

The ancient killing formation shattered.

The surrounding space returned to normal.

Qi Ming was still standing in the hall of the Yinglong Temple. From the beginning to the end, he did not take half a step.

He looked around.

The hall of the Yinglong Temple was very empty. There were incomparably huge stone pillars supporting the hall. On the stone pillars were carvings of the Yinglong.

However, many stone pillars had already broken and collapsed.

The hall was surrounded by shattered rocks.

Directly ahead, at the main seat of the hall, there was also a Yinglong statue.

Unfortunately…

This Yinglong statue was already ruined.

It was shattered.

This Yinglong Temple seemed to have completely transformed into a ruined palace. It was completely abandoned, as if it was impossible for an ancient treasure or inheritance to exist.

“The Ancient Demon Emperor Yinglong ultimately disappeared in the long river of history and time. No matter how powerful you were back then, or had even suppressed an era.”

Qi Ming sighed, “I wonder if you died or shattered the void to become an immortal.”

While speaking, he walked to the dragon statue.

“Rise!”

Buzz!

Qi Ming raised his hand and placed his right hand on the ruined Yinglong statue. He injected Golden Core Dharmic powers into it and activated the array formation in the statue.

Roar!

The next moment, the Yinglong statue shook violently. Golden light appeared and gathered in front of Qi Ming, condensing into a golden Yinglong Dharma Idol.

Of course, this was only the Yinglong Dharma Idol condensed by the array formation. It did not have its own intelligence.

“Junior.”

The Yinglong Dharma Idol stared at Qi Ming, but it was actually an image that had been set up long ago, “You were able to find this place means that you and I are fated.”

“After you obtain my inheritance, I don’t need you to inherit my name as the Demon Emperor, nor do I need you to lead the Demon Race to rise again and become the master of the Mystic World.”

“I want you to find a living being with a golden dragon mark between his brows.”

“Find him and assist him.”

“Are you willing?”

It was as if… the Yinglong Dharma Idol examined Qi Ming.

“Not interested.” Qi Ming said.

“Very good.”

After a moment, the Yinglong Dharma Idol nodded in satisfaction, as if it had heard the answer it wanted, “You’re as I expected. Since you’re willing to assist him, my inheritance belongs to you.”

“Take it.”

“Junior.”

Buzz!

As soon as he finished speaking, the Yinglong Dharma Idol disappeared.

Rumble!!!

The ground shook violently, and the Yinglong Temple shook violently.

The Yinglong statue slowly moved to the side.

The ground of the Yinglong Temple cracked open.

A square entrance appeared.

Qi Mingming rejected it, but the Yinglong Dharma Idol said that Qi Ming agreed.

“That’s why.”

Qi Ming shrugged. “If it were anyone else, they would probably be frightened by this Yinglong Dharma Idol. However, this is only an image left behind from ancient times. It has an appearance but doesn’t have any power. It’s just a paper tiger.”

“Everything it said was set beforehand.”

“That Demon Emperor probably doesn’t even know that he would be rejected.”

“However…”

Qi Ming pondered and thought, “A living being with a golden dragon mark between his brows? Who is it? Where is it? Why does Yinglong want me to support him?”

“In that case…”

“In Yinglong’s heart, that creature with the golden dragon mark between his brows is very important.”

“A living being that the Ancient Demon Emperor values!”

Qi Ming did not have any clue yet.

Immediately after, he walked into the passageway and walked down the staircase. On the two walls of the staircase, an array formation’s light path appeared, illuminating the dark passageway.

At this moment, Qi Ming saw a complete mural on the wall. This mural was very long and described the various deeds of the Ancient Demon Emperor, Yinglong.

From the beginning, when the Yinglong was still a Venomous Snake, it rose step by step and overcame difficulties and dangers one after another to grow into an Ancient Demon Emperor.

After Yinglong became the Ancient Demon Emperor, he established the Ancient Demon Court and led the demons to suppress the Mystic World. He had almost become the master of the Mystic World.

In that era, in the Mystic World, gods, immortals, devils, humans, demons, and ghosts respected the Demon Race.

It could be said to be extremely brilliant.

Behind the mural, a huge change began.

This was because the ancient calamity had descended.

Killing intent evolved, karma became chaotic, endless tribulation already appeared.

At the end of the calamity, even the sky collapsed.

There were deficiencies in heaven and earth.

At that moment, the Ancient Demon Emperor, Yinglong, attacked.

He used supreme Dharmic powers and exhausted his blood and sweat. He used the body of a Yinglong that he had cultivated for nearly ten thousand years to forcefully block the collapse of the sky and mend the gap in the world.

This way…

The ancient Demon Emperor, Yinglong, died.

His body had become a part of the world.

The Heaven and Earth Tribulation dissipated and passed.

Because the Ancient Demon Emperor Yinglong had died, it caused the Ancient Demon Court to be leaderless. There was endless internal conflict. The Gods, Immortals, Demons, Human, and Ghost Races took this opportunity to jointly attack the Ancient Demon Court.

The battles continued.

Finally, the Ancient Demon Court that had suppressed an era completely collapsed.

Only the sects with long inheritances had records of it.

Qi Ming walked to the end of the passageway and finished looking at the entire mural. He looked at the scene of the Ancient Demon Court collapsing. Corpses were everywhere.

“That ancient Demon Emperor, Yinglong, has died.”

“He used his body as a dragon to fill the gap in the world.”

“He’s worried about the myriad life in the world!”

Qi Ming sighed softly, “Or was there another plan?”

“He’s already dead. What else could he plan?”

Everything recorded in the mural was true.

Back then, if the ancient Demon Emperor Yinglong did not use himself to complete the gap between heaven and earth, the final outcome would be heaven collapsing and earth shattering. The entire Mystic World would be reset.

It could even be completely destroyed.

Ironically, after the Ancient Demon Emperor Yinglong died, the Ancient Demon Court he established was jointly destroyed by the five races.

It was understandable.

No wonder the demons in the Yinglong Grotto-heaven hated humans. They not only hated humans, but they also hated the five races other than the demons.

He arrived at the end of the passageway.

It was the legacy chamber of Yinglong.

There was a golden door standing.

There was a Yinglong carved on the door.

Buzz! Buzz!

Qi Ming raised his hand and placed it on the golden door ring. He circulated his Dharmic powers and injected them into it to activate the array formation on the golden door.

Crack! Crack!

Rumble!!!

The golden door slowly opened, and the surroundings shook.

The inheritance chamber appeared in front of Qi Ming.

Qi Ming walked in.

Buzz!

The next moment, a powerful energy transformed into a powerful light that seemed to pierce through space and locked onto Qi Ming’s head.

Clang!

Qi Ming raised his hand, and the Intrinsic Dharma treasure, Sword Mountain, appeared. It floated in front of him. The mountain that was like a sword hilt blocked this powerful light.

This force was extremely powerful.

Although Qi Ming blocked the attack, he was forced back a step by this powerful force.

Qi Ming raised his head and looked ahead, but he did not see any traces. The inheritance chamber was very empty, and there was only a purple wooden table with a few items.

“Come out.” Qi Ming said, “I know you’re here. You’re the Dao Protector of the Yinglong inheritance.”

“Tsk tsk…”

At this moment, a mocking voice sounded as if it came from all directions. It was impossible to determine the other party’s exact location, “The useless Dragon of the Desert actually let a human like you come here.”

“What was it doing?”

“Could it be that after sleeping for so many years, it had already forgotten how to fight?”

“Dao Protector of the Yinglong Inheritance.”

Qi Ming smiled and said, “You’re wrong. It’s not that the Dragon of the Desert doesn’t stop me, but it’s impossible for it to stop me with its strength.”

“Impossible.”

The other party’s voice sounded again, “The Dragon of the Desert is the guardian spirit of Yinglong Grotto-heaven, and your Dharmic powers fluctuation is only at the late-stage Core Formation realm. How can it not be able to stop you?”

“You’ll know if you try.”

Qi Ming walked towards the purple wooden table.

“Stop!”

Swish! Swish!

Two forces tore through the air like sharp arrows and pierced two deep holes under Qi Ming’s feet, “Lord Yinglong’s inheritance should not be inherited by you.”

“Leave this place immediately.”

“Ridiculous.”

Qi Ming’s gaze turned cold, “Just now, I only gave you some dignity on the account that the Ancient Demon Emperor, Yinglong, cared for the world and used himself to repair the gap in the world. How dare you act so impudent?”

“You’re only a piece of trash that has survived since ancient times.”

“You’re courting death.”

Buzz! Buzz!

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Ming circulated his Dharmic powers and used the mystic technique, Clairvoyant Sight. He immediately locked onto the exact location of the Dao Protector of the Yinglong Inheritance..
