Ancient Battlefield

Ancient Battlefield is the remnant of an ancient battle fought by a Great Emperor. It left behind many tears in spacetime. Many people went there to seek treasures left behind from that ancient battle. Part of the battlefield lies in a subarea of the Spirit World. This is where Long Chen meets Yun Shang and obtains Evilmoon.
The Ancient Battlefield was sealed by Han Wei's Emperor Blood Seal.
A portion of the battlefield was in the Spirit World. Another portion was at the border between the Eastern Xuan Region and Southern Xuan Region.
== Central Plains part ==
At some unknown time, he had entered a storm region. Everything around him was dusky, and the roar of thunder came with flashes of lightning.
Long Chen's expression became solemn. He had reached the border between the Eastern Xuan Region and the Southern Xuan Region. This was home to one of the seven danger zones: the Ancient Battlefield.
As for the Ancient Battlefield, it had many names. It was also called the Battlefield of Gods (诸神战场).
In truth, there were many names for many existences on the Martial Heaven Continent. For example, the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect's original name was the Heaven Splitting Divine Sect.
That was because it was rumored that the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect had been founded by a god, so it had the word Divine in it. However, the era of gods and legends had already passed, and the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect declined. No one called it the Heaven Splitting Divine Sect any longer, so it became the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect.
This battlefield was the same. It had once been called the Battlefield of Gods, but later, people had felt that calling it the Ancient Battlefield was easier to understand, as gods were too ephemeral.
"Damn, this lightning and storm is no natural manifestation. It's the result of laws clashing and breaking spacetime."
Long Chen was stunned. He was now finally experiencing the Ancient Battlefield. He found that it was somewhat similar to the Ancient Battlefield in the Spirit World.
However, the clash of laws here was even more intense. Long Chen didn't even need to try and trace back to the origin to sense these terrifying laws.
Long Chen continued through this region according to the path set on the map. He didn't dare to deviate even in the slightest. Any deviation could cause him to lose his life here.
He saw countless illusions as he flew by. He saw meteorites pouring down in torrents, stars exploding, giants holding up the sky, a one-winged beast slicing through the starry sky. There were countless lifeforms fighting intensely. The images were all chaotic.
Long Chen focused on controlling the flying boat and did his best not to be affected by the illusions. However, this was very difficult as these illusions were constantly trying to draw his attention. There were several times he almost went off track because of how shocking the scenes were.
Long Chen was sure that these scenes weren't simple illusions. They were reality; however, those realities came from the past. He sensed anger, despair, fear, and countless emotions within them.
After a day, his flying boat finally passed through the Ancient Battlefield. Long Chen was covered in sweat. It felt like he had gone through a day of bitter fighting. He was exhausted.
For others, they could have someone flying the boat while someone else gave directions, allowing them to not be so distracted by what they saw. However, Long Chen couldn't do that.
=== Seal ===
They carefully advanced as the space around them was shuddering more intensely. They could vaguely hear terrifying roars and feel the intense battle of countless years ago. There were innumerable fallen spirits here. Even Long Chen felt a chill.
There were many records about this battlefield, all saying different things. The ancient races, Righteous path, Xuan Beasts, and even the Corrupt path had historical records of their ancestors participating in this ancient battle, but those records didn't match.
This battlefield was sealed, with only one path through it. No one dared to actually enter the battlefield. The Ancient Battlefield had always been a mysterious existence.
=== Labyrinth ===
This was the only path through the Ancient Battlefield. There was no other way. If they strayed from this path, they would become lost within the immense battlefield and never find their way out.
Rumor was that the Ancient Battlefield was the result of peerless experts fighting at such a high level that they shattered the laws of the Martial Heaven Continent. As a result, the fighting wills from that battle persisted all the way to the present, as not even the laws of time could wipe them out.
Sometimes, some strange scenes would appear within the channel, but it was forbidden to touch them. Under ordinary circumstances, they wouldn't affect people that much.
=== Skeleton dragon ===
The skeleton was huge and looked similar to an Earth Dragon, emitting a tyrannical pressure. However, its neck was very short, making the proportions wrong. Furthermore, it had six feet. It was unknown what kind of lifeform it was.
"It didn't revive, nor is it alive. This isn't even a real body. Although its body died, its will was not erased," said Long Chen gravely.
This was an extremely shocking ability. It was clearly an incorporeal will that had condensed a body. That killing intent was not wiped out even after countless years.
=== Remnants of ancient era ===
Following the giant skeleton's roar, more figures appeared. Flying birds, walking beasts, lifeforms with two wings on their backs, giants three hundred meters tall.
One of those giants punched the skeleton, blowing it apart. However, the giant was then attacked from behind by a winged creature. Its head was cut off by a sword.
Each of their attacks was simple and direct. One punch shook the heavens, while one sword fractured space. The laws of heaven and earth were all destroyed over and over.
They fought fiercely for a moment before the scene grew chaotic. Space twisted, and they vanished from sight.
"How powerful. Even after so many years, their battle will still remains. A portion of their battle can even affect our generation. This is a kind of eternal power." Chu Yao was still filled with shock.
If they said that what they had just seen was all an illusion, that wouldn't be entirely accurate. The terrifying battle had ended up breaking free of the restrictions of space and time to affect them in the current era. However, they also couldn't say that what they had seen was necessarily real. Whatever it was, it had vanished in just a moment.
"Just what happened in the ancient era? We still don't know, but it's fine. We'll reach that height sooner or later, and at that time, all those secrets will no longer be secrets." Long Chen clenched his fist.
That scene just now was truly stunning. Although it had only appeared for a moment, it had made Long Chen feel incredibly minute.
In that intense battle, each blow had destroyed the laws of heaven and earth, and Long Chen had felt himself to be an ant without the slightest ability to resist. That had stimulated his determination to get stronger faster. Once he returned, he definitely couldn't continue tarrying. He had to hurry up and increase his cultivation base.
== Spirit World part ==
=== Description ===
"Within the Spirit World lies part of the Ancient Battlefield. Back when the human race was still allied with the Spirit World, when devil creatures invaded us, they were suppressed by a Sovereign. That battle was extremely intense, and heaven and earth were destroyed. Spatial cracks now litter that region. Rumor has it that countless experts of both the humans and those devil creatures died at that time, and their treasures were left behind. However, the divine might of a Sovereign still lingers there, so neither we nor the Dark Forest's tree demons can approach there without being annihilated," said the Spirit Queen.
Only humans can get close to that area, but the battlefield is extremely dangerous. Countless adventurers have entered without ever leaving.
=== Minor world ===
This calm place that Leng Yueyan and Long Chen were in is a special place where experts once died. It can be considered a pure land within this chaos. They used their own bodies to create minor worlds in their deaths. Because they died, the minor worlds became even weaker, and within a Sovereign's pressure, these minor worlds form layers upon layers. If you're lucky, you'll be able to find heaven-defying treasures.
=== Tears in spacetime ===
Divine light rippled on the bone sword tip, and the void was cut open like it was a piece of cloth. Leng Yueyan glanced back at Long Chen for a moment before stepping into that opening.
Through the other side of the opening, Long Chen saw a dark and gloomy world. Before he could see any details, the opening closed and it vanished. All that was before him was this barren desert.
Long Chen also forms a portal and steps through it.
The space behind him closed, and Long Chen appeared in a different world. It was his first time experiencing what it felt like to step across worlds.
He had come from one world to another world just like that. Furthermore, he had done so relying on brute strength to tear open the spatial wall. This was almost inconceivable to him.
These worlds were the minor worlds that the fallen experts had created.
They weren't like the major worlds of the likes of the Martial Heaven Continent. The major worlds had incredibly powerful spatial barriers. Other than those legendary immortals and gods, no one could tear through such barriers.
The minor worlds here had been affected by the Ancient Battlefield, making the spatial walls extremely weak, allowing even Long Chen to break through them.
This was a desolate land without a single blade of grass. Furthermore, there were battle scars everywhere, seemingly from many years ago.
=== Appearance ===
A region of space rippling like it was a huge waterfall.
Although he was so far away, he could still see the space there twisting. But the instant he looked closely, his hair stood on end. He sensed a terrifying pressure.
Even from this distance, it gave off such a terrifying pressure. It was worthy of being a place a Sovereign had once fought.
Primal chaos raged in this location, and the laws of heaven and earth were constantly being torn to shreds. There was no way for this part of the world to heal.
A battle from tens of thousands of years ago had left such scars even after so much time. A Sovereign was truly an untouchable existence.
=== Story ===
It was a very vague name. This was a place where supreme experts had once fought.
Back when the Spirit World was still allied with the Martial Heaven Continent, when devils had invaded the Spirit World and been about to annihilate the Spirit race with the intent of eliminating one of the Martial Heaven Continent's helpers, a Sovereign of the human race had led an army of experts to provide assistance. An immense battle had been fought here.
The core of the battlefield was where the Sovereign had fought the devils. The laws of this region had been destroyed, causing spatial cracks to constantly appear for moments. Even after tens of thousands of years, the pressure of the Sovereign's fighting remained.
He slowly walked deeper into the battlefield. The spatial twisting grew worse. A few miles in, the space beside him suddenly tore apart, and it was like a huge mouth wanting to devour him.
If he didn't react fast enough and instinctively dodge, he would have been drawn into the chaotic flow of space. No matter how strong you were you would die from that.
"Even a random bone possesses hardness comparable to King items." Long Chen couldn't help being shocked. This bone was very strange. There were many holes in it like it was porous, and it was practically weightless when he held it. It definitely wasn't the bone of a normal human.
He quickly saw a skeleton. That skeleton was thirty meters long and broken. Its head and limbs had vanished. He took a look and saw that some places showed signs that they had been broken recently. Someone must have come and taken those pieces away.
Continuing forward, he once more reached a place where space was unstable. A huge abyss appeared in front of him when he exited. When he flew over the abyss, he realized it was a giant footprint.
A single footprint was dozens of miles long and had broken the spatial laws around it. Even now, the spatial laws were broken as they tried to repair themselves.
After crossing the abyss, a scorching air came from ahead. He quickly saw a blazing river of lava.
The lava emitted fierce heat, and he saw dozens of figures roving over the lava.
=== Map ===
Through his soulsearch, he also obtained a map of the Ancient Battlefield. Only now did he realize the Ancient Battlefield had safe passageways that allowed a person to avoid the spatial cracks.
With the map, Long Chen found that the Ancient Battlefield was a long strip. At the end of it was a region that was said to be where a Sovereign had fought. There were countless treasures there, and there was even a chance to comprehend what the Sovereign had left behind.
The most alluring thing was that rumor was that the Sovereign (Yun Shang) had killed a top devil expert (Evilmoon), and had sealed their divine weapon there. Anyone who obtained it would obtain that devil expert's inheritance and gain a power rivaling a Sovereign.
== Divine families ==
Strange phenomena will appear quite often. Sometimes you'll hear shouting or bestial roaring. There have been times where people see strange things. To put it bluntly, you will encounter countless unimaginable things here. The experts of that time are not existences we can comprehend. Although there are countless dangers here, there are also countless opportunities. Hehe, you should understand how important the Ancient Battlefield is just based on the fact that the entrance has always been kept under the control of the divine families. It can be said that one reason for the divine families' success is due to the Ancient Battlefield.
The Ancient Battlefield continues to give us countless surprises. Sometimes, experts will leave their inheritances within a minor world right before dying. If you can find the entrance, you can receive that inheritance. Such things are littered throughout the Ancient Battlefield, but they can only be found by luck. Even after all these years, the divine families have only managed to explore a portion of this place. There is also the demon race blocking us from going deeper. They are a constant disturbance. So this Ancient Battlefield can be considered a treasure house, but we don't have the ability to take all the treasures out. My guess is that after the Star Field Divine World is opened, the next step will be to open the Ancient Battlefield to the continent.
== Trivia ==
*Building any kind of transportation formation through the Ancient Battlefield is difficult as the spatial laws there are broken. There's no way to make it steady like other transportation formations. (Shen Chengfeng)
