However, beneath the middle plaque, there was also an object. It was a tower that reached ten thousand metres high.
It could be called a tower because of its shape, but it could also be described as a staircase.
The staircase extended from the ground surface all the way to the top.
At the very summit stood a throne. The throne was formed by countless dragons coiling around each other. It was extremely intricate, exquisite, and carried an overwhelming sense of majesty.
Compared to the golden platform on the right, this throne gave off an even stronger feeling of divinity.
However, both the staircase and the throne were split down the middle, crafted from two different colours and materials.
The left side was black, not only black in colour but also burning with black flames.
The right side was golden.
Clearly, it had been jointly created by the black sea of fire and the golden platform.
“What a domineering chair. That must be the throne of the leader of these Asura evil spirits, right?” Dan Dan could not help asking curiously when she saw the dragon throne.
But Chu Feng had no time to think further. He followed Lord Yun Liang and landed on the golden platform on the far right.
Once closer, Chu Feng could see that at the top of the golden platform there was actually a grand formation. However, this formation was extremely complex, and its barrier power could not be activated at all.
Lord Yun Liang flew down and landed precisely in one of the formation eyes.
Since the formation was not operating, this formation eye was merely a circle engraved on the platform.
There were fully several hundred such formation eyes scattered across this massive golden platform.
When he saw Lord Yun Liang land, Chu Feng also stepped into a formation eye.
“Get out. Step back behind me.”
But Lord Yun Liang immediately scolded him through a secret voice transmission.
Only then did Chu Feng realise he was not qualified to enter the formation eye. He had no choice but to do as Lord Yun Liang said and retreat.
Not long after, several more Asura evil spirits arrived.
Their entourages grew larger and larger. The smallest had at least a few followers behind them. The largest had an army of several thousand.
They all landed in the formation eyes on the platform. As for their subordinates, whether a few or several thousand, they could only stand outside the formation eyes, just like Chu Feng, positioned behind their masters.
“Lord Yun Liang, it is rare to see you bring a follower along.”
“But the follower you brought seems rather unimpressive.”
“If you do not have suitable subordinates, I can send some to you tomorrow.”
One of the elder evil spirits glanced at Chu Feng and then spoke to Lord Yun Liang.
“No need.”
Yet Lord Yun Liang merely waved his hand coldly. He did not even look at the other party when he spoke.
“Hmph, how ungrateful.”
This made the elder evil spirit very displeased. He turned his head and began conversing with others.
Chu Feng knew that those qualified to stand in the formation eyes must be prominent figures among the Asura evil spirits.
They all seemed quite familiar with each other. When they talked, their faces were full of smiles.
In such an atmosphere, Lord Yun Liang stood out like an outsider.
It was not that no one spoke to him, but whenever someone did, they received only his cold indifference in return.
It was clear that Lord Yun Liang was someone who did not mix well with others.
Perhaps precisely because of this, those people did not pay much attention to Chu Feng, this unfamiliar figure.
The top powerhouses among the Asura evil spirits arrived one after another. After about an hour, almost every one of the several hundred formation eyes had an Asura evil spirit standing within it.
Each one looked like someone not to be trifled with.
However, on this golden platform, one formation eye remained empty.
Chu Feng guessed that the last one to arrive must be an extraordinary existence.
Just as he had guessed, not long after, an army of ten thousand marched through the air in a grand and imposing manner.
The leader was actually riding a giant beast formed from an Asura evil spirit.
The armour he wore was also distinctive.
His armour was covered in patterns of black dragons. In shape, they bore some resemblance to the dragon throne.
He appeared to be a middle-aged man. Even in evil spirit form, his features remained handsome. Yet despite his good looks, his eyes carried an innate, awe-inspiring authority.
The moment he appeared, all the other Asura evil spirit experts present seemed insignificant.
His presence was so overwhelming that it eclipsed everyone else there.
“Greetings to the Asura King!!!”
When this figure appeared, every Asura evil spirit present hurriedly bowed in respect.
Even the prominent figures standing in the formation eyes were no exception.
“So this is the Asura King?”
“He really does seem incredibly powerful.”
Seeing the Asura King, even Dan Dan could not help but exclaim in admiration.
“Everyone, sorry to have kept you waiting.”
“Please rise.”
The Asura King flew down and, as expected, landed precisely in the empty formation eye.
Only after he landed did the Asura evil spirits present stand up straight.
After taking his seat, the Asura King first retrieved a box.
The box was rectangular, less than one metre long and less than two feet wide.
It was also black, but crafted from a special metal. Complex rune patterns were engraved across its surface.
Moreover, a blood-red talisman paper was affixed to the box.
On the blood-red talisman paper were inscribed black curse seals.
That was a sealing talisman, an extremely powerful one.
When Chu Feng saw that sealing talisman, his heart tightened. An extremely ominous premonition surged within him.
Such a formidable sealing talisman must be suppressing something truly terrifying inside.
Could these Asura evil spirits be planning to unseal whatever was inside that box?
While Chu Feng was lost in thought, the Asura King had already placed the box at his feet. Then he took out a scroll.
When the scroll was opened, Chu Feng discovered that it was only half a scroll. Clearly, one half was missing.
The front half was gone. What remained was the latter half.
Because the Asura King had his back turned towards Chu Feng, when the scroll opened, Chu Feng could see its contents.
Although the scroll was incomplete, the remaining latter half bore a complete formation diagram.
If Chu Feng guessed correctly, to activate the formation on this golden platform, one would need to use the formation recorded on this scroll.
However, at the end of the scroll, there was also the imprint of a seal. The seal bore a name.
Presumably, that was either the creator of this formation or the true owner of the scroll.
Chu Feng speculated that the owner of this scroll might very well be the one who had set up the powerful formations throughout this Asura Burial Ground.
Out of curiosity, Chu Feng began to examine it closely. Even though the characters were small, in Chu Feng’s eyes they gradually became clear.
“This…”
“How is this possible?”
As Chu Feng made out the characters, he was instantly shocked. In an instant, monstrous waves surged within the depths of his heart.
On that seal were engraved four large characters.
Slaughter Heavenly King!!!
