Everlasting Divine Emperor

"Stone Forest City" is located in the Holy Spirit Continent, near the famous "Stone Forest Holy Land", and hence the name.

It was said that this stone forest had existed since the ancient times. No one knew how this stone forest was formed, and some later generation of formation masters speculated that this stone forest could be an ancient formation. As for what formation it was, and who it was laid by, no one could tell.

Just like the many ancient ruins of the Holy Spirit Continent, this Stone Forest Holy Land was also an eternal mystery.

The reason why the stone forest was called "Holy Land" was because every ten years, a large amount of dense true essence would suddenly gather inside the stone forest and only after ninety-nine days, would it disperse. During this period of time, if a martial artist entered the stone forest to cultivate in seclusion, they would be able to obtain an unexpected and wonderful result. Many martial artists who encountered bottlenecks in their cultivation would be able to quickly break through their bottlenecks and enter a higher realm after nine to eighty-one days of seclusion.

Ever since the Stone Woods Holy Land was discovered, every ten years, the warriors from all over the Holy Spirit Continent would hear the news and gather around the Holy Stone Forest Holy Land, hoping to get a chance to enter the Stone Forest to train and improve their strength.

In the beginning, any warrior of the Holy Spirit Continent could go inside to cultivate. But because there were more and more warriors, since the Stone Woods Holy Land could no longer hold many warriors, they started to use their own strength to talk. Whoever was strong could go inside to cultivate.

Later on, every great sect in the Holy Spirit Continent took a fancy to the Stone Woods Holy Land and wanted it for themselves.

In the end, the Stone Forest Holy Land was divided up by the top ten sects on the continent and then divided into ten areas. Every ten years, the top ten sects would send out a batch of outstanding disciples to train in the areas under their sects.

As one of the ten great sects, Phoenix Restaurant also had a region within the stone forest sacred land. However, because Phoenix Restaurant was ranked the last among the ten great sects, not only was the area occupied the smallest and most remote, its position was also relatively sparse in terms of true essence.

Therefore, the Martial Competition held every ten years was not only related to the sects' share of the Sacred Stone lode, but was also related to whether or not they could occupy a good area in the Stone Forest Holy Land.

Tens of thousands of years ago, Stone Forest City was only a small village with a few hundred people. Later on, because of the rapid rise of the Stone Forest Holy Land, it became a mighty city with tens of millions of people.

There were still a few months until the training period of the Stone Woods Holy Land, which was held once every ten years. However, this small city was already filled with a large number of warriors from all over the Holy Spirit Realm.

On this evening, a man and a woman entered Stone Forest City. Both of them were around the age of 20. They were handsome and walked side by side, like a pair of golden couple that attracted the attention of many.

The young man was dressed in a green robe, he was divine like jade, and he was in the middle stage of the Dan Yuan Stage. The young woman was wearing a yellow robe, she was gorgeous, and her cultivation was already at the peak of the Danyuan Stage.

The young girl was only twenty years old, but she was already at the peak of the great Danyuan Stage. With such a powerful cultivation base at such an age, in the entire Holy Spirit Continent, she was probably one of the very few.

Some people in Stone Forest City were guessing the identity of this young man and woman. They thought that these two must be the genius disciples from some big sect in the Holy Spirit Continent.

The young men and women who were the focus of many experts were naturally Ye Daoxuan and Mu Qingyan.

Mu Qingyan, who had been staying in the Dragon Ring space, ate a Bodhi Spirit Fruit and devoted herself to cultivation. Before reaching the Stone Forest City, she successfully advanced her cultivation and broke through two small realms in a row. From the early stage of the Danyuan stage to the peak of the Danyuan stage, her battle prowess soared by dozens of times.

Before entering the city, Mu Qingyan had left the Dragon Ring space and entered the city along with Ye Daoxuan. Unlike the other martial artists who immediately looked for an inn to stay in, after entering the city, the two of them seemed to have quite a high profile. They would go wherever there were more people.

They were only twenty years old. One of them was in the middle stage of the Danyuan stage while the other one was at the peak of the Danyuan stage. There was indeed something worth showing off.

Not long after, almost all of the martial artists in Stone Forest City knew that there were two genius martial artists that were excessively young, and they even looked like golden couple.

In the middle of the night, Ye Daoxuan and Mu Qingyan finally opened up two adjoining rooms in an inn in the city.

During the night, a few strands of telepathic thoughts swept across the rooms where Ye Daoxuan and Mu Qingyan resided. Some of them were blocked by the restrictions set up by the two.

Ye Daoxuan and Mu Qingyan were already mentally prepared for this.

"Blood Shadow Sect disciples like to kill the genius disciples of various sects. That Blood Shadow was often active in the vicinity of the stone forest city. Senior Mu and I didn't conceal our auras as as we strolled around the stone forest. I believe that he must have already discovered us. "Hmm, let's hope that we can lure him out!" Ye Daoxuan mused to himself.

After daybreak, Ye Daoxuan left the inn alone according to the plan he had discussed beforehand, and he walked towards the unmarked cemetery outside of Stone Forest City.

It was said that after Stone Forest City rose to greatness, there would be warriors that would often clash with each other in the city. Once a warrior fell, those unclaimed corpses would be thrown there, and after a long time, this place became a mountain of corpses, and people would call it the "Unmarked Tomb".

However, not long after he left Stone Forest City, he discovered that he had been targeted by someone. Although that person had tried his best to conceal his aura, Ye Daoxuan's divine sense was extremely strong, so he was still able to sense his presence.

"Small peak of the Origin Core Stage …" "If my guess is correct, the person chasing after you should be Blood Shadow."

Ye Daoxuan sneered inside, thinking that once they arrived at the unmarked cemetery, it would be best to capture this person alive. He hoped that he could get some information about the Blood Shadow Sect in the Holy Spirit Continent from him, and then kill a few more Blood Shadow Sect disciples.

As for Patriarch Blood Shadow, Ye Daoxuan had no plans to get any information from him. Not to mention whether or not he was still alive, even if he was, he was still just an inner disciple. It would be impossible for him to get close to someone as high and mighty as Patriarch Blood Shadow.

Suddenly, the spiritual will from Ye Wen's Mysterious Constellation caught a faintly discernible aura. This aura was far stronger than Blood Shadow's, but it didn't belong to Mu Qingyan, who was secretly following him. It was rather similar to Blood Shadow.

"Looks like in this Stone Forest City, other than Blood Shadow, there are other Blood Shadow Sect disciples! That Blood Shadow Sect disciple's cultivation should not be weaker than senior sister Mu … "

Ye Daoxuan's heart tightened. He was unable to figure out how many Blood Shadow Sect disciples were hiding in this Stone Forest City, and just how many were following him out this time.
