Chapter 409: Bones

Since ancient times, all the demon clans in the world regard the Demon Emperor as the ancestor, and the myths and legends known to women and children in the demon clan are Pangu Kaitian, followed by the Heavenly Demon Emperor, and then the Heavenly Demon Emperor created all things in the world, created the Hongmeng Hundred Races, respected by the Demon Clan, and all the Clans were servants, which is the origin myth of the Demon Clan.

As one of the people who know the demon race the most among the human race, Shen Shi is of course very familiar with this myth and legend, and he has long heard the name of the Heavenly Demon Emperor for many years. However, in more long years, history has been obliterated, although the demon race still firmly believes in this myth, but there are already a lot of doubts and speculations in the human race, and many people even claim that the Heavenly Demon Emperor is actually just an ancestral idol imagined by the demon race, in fact, it does not exist at all.

In the demon war, the human race once hyped this statement, which attracted great anger from the demon race, and fought several bloody and tragic battles for this, which is off-topic. However, before meeting Huang Ming, Shen Shi actually didn't believe in the legend of the Heavenly Demon Emperor, even if he had been to the Demon Realm for three years.

The reason is very simple, if the Heavenly Demon Emperor who is admired and worshiped by the demon clan really exists, it is really too powerful, and the creation of the world is omnipotent, this kind of ability is no different from the gods, and it can even be said that it is not inferior to the groundbreaking Pangu.

However, when Huang Ming told him this secret that day, he directly told him that the Heavenly Demon Emperor did exist, not only did he exist, but also left his remains to this day, in the dragon vein altar in the demon world.

All the demon clans originated from the Heavenly Demon Emperor, so he is the last dragon vein of the demon clan, pinning on the last qi of the demon clan, as long as the remains still exist, the demon clan still has the hope of making a comeback.

Yes, to destroy the last dragon vein of the demon clan is to destroy the remains left by the Heavenly Demon Emperor in the world. Even if Shen Shi was a human race, he couldn't help but change his face when he heard this, he was not afraid of this, but was shocked by Huang Ming's madness again.

There is really a demon clan in this world who is crazy enough to destroy the remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor who all the demon clans respect as gods, even if Shen Shi is a human race, he feels incredible about this, that is, from that time Shen Shi faintly felt that Huang Ming was trapped in the demon clan's underground palace for 10,000 years, and it seemed that it still inevitably had a serious impact on his heart.

It's just that despite this, Huang Ming didn't show any disadvantage to Shen Shi, and Shen Shi, as a human race, didn't feel any discomfort at least in his mood if he wanted to destroy the remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor. So this deal was finally reached, of course, under the circumstances at that time, Shen Shi did not think that it was really possible for him to return to the demon world to do this, how could the Feihong Realm, which had been isolated for 10,000 years, suddenly change and pass through the demon realm?

As a result, what happened later, now everyone in the world knows, and he also came here inexplicably, and the fate and chance are strange and strange, which is really unpredictable.

But now that he was in this place, Shen Shi didn't plan to break his promise.

In the darkness, he examined his body and found that there was nothing wrong with it, except for some breathlessness caused by the inexplicable powerful force that caused him to be teleported to this mysterious place at the beginning.

He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so he stood up, and after feeling his surroundings a little, he made sure that there did not seem to be any danger nearby, and then he waved his palm, and a fireball burned in his palm, illuminating the surroundings.

Under the firelight, Shen Shi saw that what he was in at the moment was indeed a very large stone room as Huang Ming said that day, but the surrounding surface was not flat, there were many potholes and pits, which looked very rough, and there were many strange crystal stone ridges protruding from the ground, all kinds of colors, reflecting a strange luster in the light of the fireball.

Such stone ridges can be seen everywhere, not only on the ground, but also on the stone walls, and in addition, there is no sound of any living creatures near Shen Shi, not even insects and ants.

Shen Shi frowned, walked forward, the fireball slowly rose, illuminating more territory, and then it didn't take long for him to see the stone platform placed in front of the large stone room, as well as a skeleton on the stone platform.

&&&

Huang Ming didn't tell Shen Shi what the bones of the Heavenly Demon Emperor looked like, because he didn't know it himself, he just learned from the story that the Demon Emperor had been passed down from generation to generation that there was a huge skull outside the altar, that was the skull of the Heavenly Demon Emperor in the past, and the remaining body remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor were kept here.

Of course, Shen Shi had already seen the huge skull outside before entering this stone room, although he was shocked by the huge skull of the Heavenly Demon Emperor and could even think of the huge size of this monster in front of him, but thinking about it, if the legend of the demon clan was true, it didn't seem to be a particularly difficult fact to accept that the Heavenly Demon Emperor with such a powerful strength was a giant.

It's just that when he saw the bones on the stone platform, Shen Shi was still taken aback and subconsciously stopped.

The silent stone platform was originally hidden in the darkness, and time seemed to have stood still for thousands of years, but at this moment, as the firelight in Shen Shi's hand shone over, everything suddenly seemed to move again, the black shadow swayed, and the firelight flickered, illuminating the remains.

It was a skeleton without a head, and Shen Shi was not surprised by this, because the head of the Heavenly Demon Emperor was sitting on the altar outside. But at this moment, he still looked at the stone platform in amazement as if he had seen something extremely strange, looking at the truth that might be revealed to outsiders for the first time in thousands of years.

The headless skeleton on the stone platform looked ...... It seems to be about the same size as Shen Shi.

Neither a huge giant, nor like most demon clans that have one or two obvious traces of beasts, Shen Shi looked at it at a glance and saw clearly the remains of a human race that had lost its head.

This corpse was completely incompatible with the huge skull he had seen before in his mind, and Shen Shi's first reaction in shock was that something was wrong, and he didn't come to the place where the Heavenly Demon Emperor was buried?

But why, there is a skeleton here, and there is no head? Everything about himself is according to the method taught by Huang Ming that day, and there is no mistake along the way, so what is placed in front of him should be the remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor.

But...... Such a huge head and such an ordinary body?

Shen Shi took a deep breath, tried his best to calm his violently beating heart, and after thinking for a while, he slowly walked over and came to the edge of the stone platform.

Under the firelight, the skeleton was displayed more clearly in front of Shen Shi, and under the gaze of his gaze, Shen Shi suddenly found that the posture of this skeleton was a little strange.

In his previous imagination, the remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor should of course be lying flat and solemn, but at this moment, on this stone platform, this skeleton that was almost exactly the same as most of the human race was lying sideways, arms and legs curled up, hugging tightly in front of his chest. Except that he didn't have a head, it looked like the person was in pain, or scared......
