There was darkness ahead of the straight passage, except for the place where he was standing, which was illuminated by the light naturally emitted from his body, within a distance of fifty or six meters around him.
In the illuminated area, he could see countless tiny dust particles floating in the darkness, which were too tiny for ordinary people to see. But when he looked closely, he realized that they were not dust particles, but extremely tiny insects that gathered into groups and rose and fell in the air. The moment they touched him, they rushed towards him madly, but as soon as they got close to him, they were crushed into even finer dust by an invisible force and fell down.
He looked at the ground carefully and found that the gray ground was actually a thick layer of gray snow made up of countless insect corpses.
Lin Xiao strode forward, and he could vaguely hear countless tiny whistling sounds as he stepped on the gray snow.
His body slowly floated up, accelerated, and flew forward along the passage.
Unknowingly, two years later, Lin Xiao, who was speeding up, suddenly stopped and looked at the dark passage ahead. He muttered to himself,
"Why is this passage so long? It's been two years and I still can't see the end?"
In two years, even a wizard of the second level would be able to fly from one end of a not-so-big world to the other. This was just a passage before the Tomb of the Gods. No wonder the Universal God Emperor said that only those with the eighth level or above strength would have to come. If someone with the seventh level strength came in, they would be suppressed into an ordinary person. Ordinary people would not have enough physical strength to pass through this passage.
After a short rest, Lin Xiao continued to move forward.
He just didn't believe it. This passage must have an end.
Another two years passed during this run. He flew for countless kilometers in this endless passage without stopping. When his patience was almost at its limit, he finally saw a little light appear in the darkness ahead of the passage that had remained unchanged for years.
He was immediately cheered up and continued to move forward. The light became brighter and brighter, soon filling the entire passage until a light gate appeared at the end again.
Lin Xiao stopped to rest for a while. After his physical and mental strength recovered to the best condition, he walked into the light gate.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound of a door opening echoed in the space. More than a dozen eyes were attracted by the sound and looked towards the edge of this huge hall that looked like a church. A wooden door embedded in the wall was pushed open by a hand, and a bald head appeared in the eyes of these dozen eyes.
More than a dozen glances crossed back and forth. Lin Xiao kept pushing the door open and looked at the dozen figures in the hall in surprise. His eyes flickered quickly and he didn't dare to come in for a while.
This is a cathedral-like hall, with windows arranged in rows on the huge arched dome. There are some exquisite but strange paintings carved on it like the common church style. The surrounding walls are covered with strange reliefs, like common monsters but extremely distorted.
Lin Xiao just glanced at these strange decorations, and his eyes quickly fell on the dozen or so figures, or monsters, in the center of the hall who were looking at him with all kinds of ambiguous eyes.
Joy, hunger, expectation, hatred, greed, desire and other emotions appeared in the eyes of different figures, which made Lin Xiao full of vigilance. He slowly jumped down from the door embedded in the wall. The door on the wall disappeared after he jumped down.
These dozen figures were obviously from different races, two of them looked like humans.
The reason why I say they look like humans is that they only look like humans on the surface, but it is hard to say whether they are actually human or not, because his sense of their aura is very distorted, and their sanity keeps hovering between normal and madness, giving him the feeling that there is madness hidden in the normality.
In addition, the ground of this cathedral was littered with gray broken bones and dried skeletons. Most of the intact skeletons were clearly non-human. It was obvious that countless alien races had died here.
So now comes the question.
Isn't this the ancestral tomb of the Wanxiang God Emperor? How come there are so many foreigners?
Could it be that during this period of time, the ancestral tomb was exposed and outsiders came in?
Lin Xiao didn't know, but he became more alert.
These dozen figures seemed to be very wary of him. From the beginning until now, they had been looking at him with eyes full of greed and hunger, but they did not launch any attacks. They just observed him from a distance, just like Lin Xiao was observing them.
After a while, one of the two human-like figures stepped forward and asked loudly with a smile on his face:
"Hey, do you have anything to eat?"
He used the ancient common language commonly used by traditional wizards. This language is usually only used by ancient high-level wizards to communicate with each other and is rarely used in modern times. Obviously, this unknown life from an unknown world was once a traditional wizard. He was able to pass through the dark passage of unknown length and enter here. He was most likely an eighth-level wizard.
Although he didn't know what he was going to eat, logically speaking, with their strength, they shouldn't need to eat. Considering that they knew nothing about this place and it was rare to have someone who seemed to be able to communicate, he nodded, took out a piece of meat full of energy from his arms and threw it over.
The man quickly took the piece of meat and opened his mouth. In his shock, his mouth opened wider than normal and all the way to his ears. It turned into a horrible mouth and stuffed the whole piece of meat into his mouth. He chewed it hard, and blood flowed out from between his teeth. With his crazy eating habits and the madness hidden beneath the surface, Lin Xiao subconsciously frowned.
After finishing the piece of meat in a few bites, he looked at Lin Xiao eagerly and asked expectantly:
"Anything else?"
Lin Xiao pondered for a moment and shook his head:
"there is none left."
The man's face was immediately filled with disappointment, and he lowered his head somewhat dejectedly. An inexplicable aura made Lin Xiao subconsciously want to say something, but he saw a drop of sticky water falling from the man's lowered head. The next second, he raised his head abruptly, and his mouth was grinning to his ears, revealing two rows of interlaced sharp teeth, and he shouted madly:
"No, you do!"
It laughed wildly, and its inexplicable aura infected the other figures around it, and they all opened their mouths wide from ear to ear and gathered around him.
"So, is this a human or a monster?"
Lin Xiao sighed, raised his hand and held down the head of the humanoid monster that was rushing the fastest. A terrifying attraction came from the palm of his hand. The monster let out a scream, and its entire head quickly shrank inward. In less than a second, the entire head was sucked directly into his palm, and its body was quickly sucked into his palm along with it.
"belch!"
Lin Xiao couldn't help but burp, with a satisfied expression on his face.
"I haven't eaten so much in a long time."
Although this person doesn't look very powerful, his true form is an eighth-level strongman, and his essence is still there. It feels very satisfying to swallow him in one gulp.
The remaining figures were not afraid because one of them died, and continued to rush forward.
Lin Xiao punched away the extremely weak alien warriors who had been trapped here for who knows how long one by one. He put his hand on one of them and a miniature black hole opened in his palm and swallowed it in one gulp.
Then he did the same thing, devouring more than a dozen figures one by one, replenishing the consumed energy, and finally only one was left.
After he finished digesting it, he had time to look around.
Glancing around, he soon discovered something unusual about the reliefs on the walls of the circular hall. He walked up to one of the reliefs and saw a monster with a triangular head like an insect, but a body like a slim beauty. Its body was facing outside, and one could see a pair of tall and straight breasts and a deep valley.
Lin Xiao stared directly at the two pairs of huge compound eyes on the insect-like triangular head. With his powerful perception, he could feel that the relief seemed a little strange, but his perception was insufficient, and he could not sense what was strange at the moment.
After pondering for a while, he turned around and walked to the humanoid monster that was left with only the upper half of its body after he devoured its lower half, pointed at the relief and asked:
"Where is this place and how do I leave?"
The humanoid monster opened its large, jagged mouth and came towards him to bite, but he slapped it to the ground with his backhand, swung his fist, pressed it to the ground, and punched it hard on the forehead. With a crisp "crack" sound, the monster's skull was cracked.
"Where is this place and how do I leave?"
The humanoid monster opened his mouth with difficulty, and a snake-like tongue divided into a dozen thin strips flew straight to his face, but was blocked by a transparent light film.
Lin Xiao ignored the forked tongue lying on the light film with a strong suction force, frowned and looked at it carefully for a while, then shook his head:
"It seems that there is no way to communicate."
He stretched out his hand and pinched the back of the monster's head. The powerful suction deformed the head and sank it into the black hole in the palm of his hand.
After finishing all this, he clapped his hands and returned to the relief on the wall, muttering to himself:
"Dear, can you see the abnormality?"
After a while, Tisha's surprised voice sounded in his mind:
"Why did you come to the Lost Realm?"
Lin Xiao wondered:
"I entered that coordinate and walked through a passage until I came here at the end."
Tisha's gentle voice sounded again:
"It seems that the ancestor of all things has placed his own tomb inside the Lost Realm. You must find the correct door to enter the Lost Realm to enter it."
"Can you find the right door?"
Obviously, this is the first test for the Emperor of All Things. He can't even find the door to enter. He might as well just go home and take a shower.
Although the three of them are the legitimate heirs, the inheritance does not necessarily have to be given to them. The biggest advantage of being the legitimate heirs is that they are exempt from the last, most difficult and dangerous stage of obtaining the mark of the ancestor, but they still have to rely on themselves to pass the previous levels. If they can't even pass the previous levels, they will definitely not be able to get the inheritance.
According to a casual chat with his girlfriend about this issue, Xie Yufei told him that if no one could enter and get the inheritance this time, then according to the regulations, the main world would intervene and open the inheritance of the All-Seeing God Emperor to all the sons of the gods in the main world, and anyone could come to the wizard world to seize the inheritance.
Of course, they also have to start from the beginning, and without the preferential treatment of the three of them, they not only have to pass the first few levels, but also have to face the final level and face the direct test of the Emperor of All Things, which is much more difficult than them.
