Rise Of The Demon God Chapter 1443

Chapter 1443

"Some artifacts. I don't know what most of them are though," Long Chen explained. 

He turned to Xun. "I might need your help in understanding what those artifacts are after we leave this place."

"How many are we talking about?" Xun asked. 

"Around twenty," Long Chen responded. "Since they were here, I'm sure they won't be much weaker than the highest grade treasures. But I doubt if they could be used by humans. If they can, it would be incredible."

"That's true. If they are soul weapons, you won't be able to use them. So they'll be useless to you. And the chances of them being a soul weapon is really high." Xun agreed with Long Chen. 

It was the home of beasts, so there was certainly a good chance that the weapons weren't suitable for humans, but still, there was some hope. 

While immersed in the conversation, they reached the end of the hallway. A ma.s.sive door was before them, which seemed unlocked. 

It was also open a bit, making Long Chen feel like others had pa.s.sed through this place. 

Some words were written on the door along with some strange carvings. Still, Xun couldn't read the words even now. 

Long Chen opened the door and stepped inside with Xun and the Snake Monarch. 

Entering the room, they found themselves in a ma.s.sive room which was around a thousand feet long. Moreover, there were five statues inside the room. One statue was in each corner of the room, while the fifth one was in the center of the room. 

All the statues were huge. Each of them was hundreds of feet tall, made entirely from stone. Also, the statues were of beasts that Long Chen had never seen before. 

"Who are these beasts?" he asked Xun. "It's the home of the Origin Beasts. But the statue doesn't look like the statue of Rainbow Phoenix or Little Snow. Who made these?"

He walked to the closest one on the left corner. The statue was of a tall leopard which had two heads and wings like an eagle. 

The stone wings were beautifully spread open. 

There was no marking on the statue or any explanation like what it was. It was like any ordinary statue carved from stone, placed in the hallway as decoration. 

"Did Origin Beasts appreciate decorations like these?" Long Chen asked Xun. 

"I don't know. Most about the ancestral beasts is unknown," Xun replied. "But it's quite possible that it's the case. But I think it's something else. These aren't just random carvings."

"What might they be then?" Long Chen asked. 

On the other end, Snake Monarch was more immersed in observing the other beast, which was a horned snake, much bigger than Snake Monarch himself. It had its eyes closed. 

"You're not half bad, but not as handsome as me," Snake Monarch commented proudly. "You don't have to feel bad though. It's not your fault you're chubby. I won't mock you for your fat. But it's more about that face of yours. There's just something about it which is really ugly," 

"Still, it would've been great if my statue was here instead. When I make my palace, I won't make the statues this ugly," he let out, rolling his eyes. He turned back to go to Long Chen, done with his curious observation. 

As he turned around, he didn't notice that the eyes of the snake statue opened slowly. 

"The Rainbow Phoenix was very powerful. It had a really high strength; moreover, it could control thirty types of flames, all with different advantages. The Ancient Myriad Beast didn't have that ability. Instead, its specialty was something else. I'll sure you know what it was."

"Transformation," Long Chen let out. 

"Exactly. The Ancient Myriad Beast was able to change his looks and his physiques to switch its abilities effectively. At that time, there were no other beasts, so everything depended on the imagination of the Myriad Beasts on what it wanted to change to."

"If I were to guess, these five were the forms it changed to. At least these were some of its forms," Xun exclaimed. 

"Since these five were made into statutes, they were either its most favorite looks or an experimentation when it was trying to come up with new forms."

"You mean he made the statues to observe and then decided if it wanted to transform or not?" Long Chen asked. 

"That's one of the possibilities at least," Xun responded. "Anyways, I am only guessing what I find possible. Maybe both the a.s.sumptions are wrong, and these are something else entirely."

"Meh, why waste your time on these statues? None of them are any good," Snake Monarch chimed in. "We can make a thousand times better than these. Instead of wasting time here, we should get going."

"For the first time, I will agree with the Snake Monarch. It doesn't matter who made these statues. In the end, they're just statues after all,"  Xun exclaimed, shaking her head. 

"We should get going. There might be more interesting things ahead," she continued. 

"You're right. Too much curiosity on minor things isn't good," Long Chen nodded. 

He turned to the other door in the room, which was on the other end of the room. 

He walked to the room. Soon he reached the statue in the middle of the room, which looked like a ma.s.sive elephant with two sharp antlers. The elephant had three tails in the back, which seemed to be on fire. 

"I wonder if Little Snow would be able to turn into these beasts one day. They certainly look strong," Long Chen commented. 

"They just look strong. In reality, they probably won't last even one minute before a true beast. You heard the saying, the bigger they are, the harder they fall," Snake Monarch chimed in. 

Thud~

Just as Snake Monarch finished his comment, he heard a slamming sound. He turned around, finding out that the door had closed. 

"It closed on its own?" he asked Long Chen, who also seemed curious. 

Long Chen shook his head. "I don't think someone was behind us to close it. Let's just leave this place first." 

He continued walking away but stopped abruptly as he felt the ground vibrate. 

He looked behind. 

The elephant which was previously looking towards the door Long Chen had entered from was looking towards the other door now. 

"Did it just move?" Even Snake Monarch has noticed this.

"Not only this... The others also moved," Long Chen commented, noticing that all the other statues were in different places now. 

Previously, they were right at the edges, but now they were a few meters ahead.
