Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1697: Chapter 1699: Secret Rumors

And this is what occupies the core position of the final layer.

Could these be the objects that these people were guarding?

Crown, Longsword, Throne!

It seems like a Human King might have fallen into hardship here.

But this doesn’t make sense. Previously, that elderly Demon Clan member mentioned an ancient agreement. It’s unlikely that they waited tens of thousands of years only to take away a crown, a throne, and a sword, right?

No, there must be something else!

”Clairvoyant Eye, activate!”

Ye Luo suddenly activated the Clairvoyant Eye, because he was uneasy, fearing there was something he was unaware of, cleverly concealed, with everything outside merely being a diversion!

With the activation of the Clairvoyant Eye, everything around could no longer be hidden from Ye Luo. He carefully examined everything, knowing that many of the items here were ones he hadn’t encountered before, making it tricky to determine which was what he truly sought.

This was solely dependent on Ye Luo’s own judgment, but he could also discern clues from hidden locations.

However, after examining it for a long time, Ye Luo found nothing out of the ordinary.

What’s going on?

Even though Ye Luo discovered many things, and some could be considered treasures, there wasn’t a single item worthy of such attention from the Demon Clan.

What exactly is it?

What exactly could it be?

Ye Luo kept pondering!

Wait, isn’t there something amiss?

Ah, it’s the silence here!

That elderly Demon and the Snow Beast leader both mentioned how dangerous this place was, yet Ye Luo had descended to the lowest level without encountering any trouble?

Moreover, while the deaths of those guarding were not suspicious, what were their identities?

A trap? Probably not?

Yet everything was too smooth, was it truly normal?

Since the Demon Clan knew that these were valuable items, were they truly unaffected?

Were they genuinely unaffected, or was there something intimidating that kept them from acting?

With no leads, too many doubts left Ye Luo completely without clues.

Ye Luo didn’t even know what he should do!

Casually picking up the sword, Ye Luo realized that while the sword was decent, it was far from being a Divine Weapon.

Obviously, this was not what was guarded within the Netherworld Palace.

Ye Luo then looked at the crown, crafted from pure gold!

Gold? In the Martial Realm, gold is an ordinary metal, something people wouldn’t bother picking up!

Thus, the crown should have no use whatsoever.

Throne?

Could the throne be problematic?

Yet, its material was quite ordinary!

Ye Luo kept thinking, but he had no clues.

Sighing, Ye Luo directly sat on the throne, preparing to contemplate!

But just as Ye Luo sat down, the scene before him rapidly changed.

At that moment, Ye Luo seemed to be embodying a Lord, experiencing some event!

”Report, Your Majesty, the Demon Clan’s army is less than a hundred miles from the Imperial City!”

Suddenly, a soldier rushed in shouting loudly.

Judging by the armor of the soldier, it seemed to be akin to the soldier armor in the Netherworld Palace.

Could Ye Luo be witnessing events that occurred long ago?

”Join me in resisting the enemy!”

With a command, countless figures dashed outside, including the Lord Ye Luo was incarnating!

Soon, the scene shifted and Ye Luo saw a colossal, mountainous city!

The city was vast, with numerous palaces, surrounding a gigantic mountain which accentuated the city’s enormity.

Outside the giant city were masses of endless Demon soldiers!

Endless in number, covering the sky and ground, were the Demon clan!

Several massive floating islands hung in mid-air, resembling the Spirit Sword Island of the Great Tang Empire in Ye Luo’s eyes!

On the ground, there were numerous bizarre Behemoths, and even hundred-meter tall giants forming formations, preparing for battle!

At this point, the Lord Ye Luo incarnated soared into the sky, turning into a streak of light, flying forward.

Meanwhile, from within the Demon Beast army formation, another streak of light emerged!

”Demon Venerable!”

”Human Emperor!”

Suddenly, the Human Emperor spoke.

”Demon Venerable, our two races have been peaceful for ages. Why raise an army today?”

”Haha, Human Emperor, ages of peace? Do you truly believe such words? If you wish for peace, it’s simple. Hand over the item, and we two races will share tranquility!”

Once more, the matter seemed to be about what Ye Luo was searching for!

But what was it?

”Demon Venerable, you should know, this item can only be controlled by the Human Race, and for ages, other races have coveted it. It grants us peace; handing it over, I have no objection per se, given our life-and-death alliance. But you must know, once out of Human Race control, it wouldn’t unleash its power. Don’t be misled!”

”Misled? Hmph, I wonder if you have ulterior motives. You Humans, shielded by the item, grow stronger while we Demon Clan have become your stepping stone. Is this what you call an alliance?”

Evidently, the Human Emperor and Demon Venerable debated, but Ye Luo could not understand what item warranted such a dispute!

After further arguments, the Human Emperor seemed to relent and proposed a solution.

”Demon Venerable, how about this? Our races are allied, yet with countless others present, we’ll struggle without unity. Let’s divide the Great Array between us, guarding it separately, and activate jointly against external threats, thus easing our dispute. What do you think?”

Split in two? What item can be split in two?

After pondering, the Demon Venerable agreed: ”Alright, the Destiny Gear belongs to both our races. In that case, guarding separately is a good choice!”

Millions gathered, could it solely be for a Destiny Gear?

Ye Luo found himself growing more astonished, with ever-increasing doubts.

But then, the scene shifted again to show a battle!

A terrifying battle where countless Demons and Humans fought fiercely, previous allies now enemies!

However, the scene did not last long, and soon a new scene appeared.
