Peerless War God

"Woof."    

Immediately, Hei Zi raised his head and called out, looking at Chen Xiao.    

Xilo jumped onto Chen Xiao's shoulder from the back of a Hellhound and said with a smile, "It seems that you have recovered well."    

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, I have almost recovered. It's about time to go and investigate."    

When the Third Prince saw this, he took a deep breath and followed quietly.    

Chen Xiao turned his head and glanced at the dead bone. He leaped onto the dead bone's shoulder, and the huge skeleton stood up very easily.    

"Woof."    

Hei Zi and the three Hellhounds saw this and also jumped onto the dead bone's shoulder.    

Seeing this, Chen Xiao casually set up a barrier and said, "Dead bone, lead the way in front and go to the stone door you mentioned."    

"Yes, Master."    

The dead bone replied with a buzz. He immediately started to walk forward at a moderate pace.    

The dead bone's speed was not considered slow, but compared to cultivators, it was still too slow. Moreover, it made quite a lot of noise. As it moved forward, it attracted the attention of quite a few undying creatures in the dark.    

On the dead bone's shoulder, the Third Prince couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chen Xiao, isn't it a bit too loud? Wouldn't it be better if we approach quietly?"    

Chen Xiao did not think so and said, "Not necessarily. If it's really as dead bone said, and there is a stone door with even more powerful undying monsters guarding it, we will definitely be discovered if we approach it. It's better to approach it openly."    

"This..."    

The Third Prince was speechless for a moment. He felt that it made sense.    

Along the way, the Undead Bones kept moving forward without stopping.    

Chen Xiao took the opportunity to spread out his Spiritual Sense to investigate the situation around him. He saw that there were many undying creatures hiding in the gloomy and sinister land. However, there were only a few powerful auras like the Undead Bones.    

These powerful auras had obviously discovered the Undead Bones. After all, the Undead Bones did not have any disguise, so it would be difficult for them to not be discovered.    

"Seven auras. If we take into account the concealment, I'm afraid there are no less than ten powerful auras."    

Chen Xiao frowned and muttered in a low voice. His heart also tightened.    

He had never relaxed his vigilance and carefully investigated his surroundings. He could not help but feel fear in his heart.    

There were nearly ten auras that were not weaker than the Undead Bones. In other words, there were more than ten powerful existences in this place. Each of them was very difficult to deal with.    

Hearing Chen Xiao's words, the Third Prince took a deep breath and said, "It's too terrifying. There are so many powerful undying monsters that are not weaker than the Undead Bones. If I accidentally bump into them, I won't even know how I died."    

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. He was extremely nervous.    

One had to know that his strength was the weakest in this group. However, he was merely at the Tribulation Transcender Realm. If there was an accident, he would probably be the first to suffer.    

This was something that the Third Prince knew very well. He subconsciously took a few steps in Chen Xiao's direction and leaned closer to him, only then did he feel a little more secure.    

Chen Xiao's face was gloomy as he said, "Although that's the case, our luck seems to be quite good. These powerful existences don't seem to have any intention of stopping us."    

Xilo nodded and said, "That's because you controlled the Death Bone, which is why you were able to perfectly avoid the territory of these powerful existences. There are fewer troubles. Generally speaking, as long as you don't actively invade the territory of these monsters, it's still very safe."    

Hearing this, Chen Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, the Death Bone knows the territory of these monsters, which is why it was able to agilely avoid them. Otherwise, it would have been very troublesome."    

"En."    

Just like that, several days passed in the blink of an eye.    

On this day, Chen Xiao was a little impatient and asked, "Death Bone, how much longer until we reach the stone door you mentioned?"    

"Master, it's just in front of us. It's about half a day away," Death Bone replied.    

"Half a day? Alright, then we'll wait a little longer." Chen Xiao sighed, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.    

This place was too strange and gloomy. The longer they waited, the more nervous they would feel. Under such a high tension, their strength was also rapidly fading away.    

On the other hand, Xilo had a calm expression as he said, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's only been such a short amount of time. After we find the stone door, the true test will begin. I have a hunch."    

"Foreboding?" Chen Xiao's face darkened as he asked.    

"Yes, a kind of foreboding. It's not that easy to enter that stone door."    

As he spoke, Xi Luo glanced at the Third Prince beside him and seemed to be deep in thought.    

The Third Prince was puzzled. He pointed at himself and said, "Why are you looking at me?"    

Xi Luo chuckled and said, "Haven't you thought about why the golden pillar of light could sense you and let you in?"    

"I..." The Third Prince opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.    

After all, he was still confused until now. God knew what was going on, so he might as well not answer.    

When Chen Xiao heard this, he became interested and asked, "Xi Luo, what's wrong? Do you have any other guesses?"    

Xi Luo smiled and said, "There are only a few possibilities."    

"Oh? Which few?" Chen Xiao asked.    

"It's very simple. Either he has extraordinary talent, or his bloodline is special. Or, his bloodline is deliberately arranged by someone," Xi Luo said lightly.    

"Special bloodline?"    

Chen Xiao frowned and looked at the Third Prince. He couldn't help but look at him a few more times. He really couldn't see anything special about him, so he just ignored him.    

The Third Prince also smiled bitterly. "My bloodline isn't special. Sir Xi Luo, you must be joking."    

Xi Luo chuckled and replied, "Heh, then it seems that there's only one possibility. His bloodline was deliberately arranged by someone. In other words, someone with the same bloodline as him entered this place and deliberately arranged everything."    

"This..."    

Hearing this, the Third Prince was shocked and his heart skipped a beat. This possibility was indeed very high.    

"If that's the case, then it must be a contingency plan left behind by a certain expert of the royal family."    

Chen Xiao immediately understood.    

"It should be like this. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain." Xiluo replied.    

"En."    

Chen Xiao agreed with this.    

The Third Prince was stunned on the spot and was at a loss for words for a moment.    

After a while, he finally digested this news and could not help but sigh with emotion. He said, "So, it really is the blessing of the ancestors. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I, a mere Tribulation Transcender, would not even have the qualifications to enter this place."    

"Right, you're lucky," Xiluo said in a low voice.    

After hearing this, the Third Prince's bitter expression became even more intense. He felt like he was a useless trash who relied on his luck and the blessing of the ancestors to walk step by step to this day.    

Even someone as proud as him felt his heart tighten. It was actually like this.
