"Heh, it looks like the master who created this Asura Ghost Tower is truly not simple at all. This person has surpassed my imagination. However, the more powerful the master, the more dangerous this Asura Ghost Tower becomes.

"But since we've come, we can't do nothing here. Chu Feng, look around this fake world. The Asura Ghost Tower itself is a Sealing Formation. There would be no one who creates a tower like this just for display. The creator wants people to come here, so look around carefully. Perhaps there will be unexpected harvests.

"However, you must be careful because the master here is too powerful. The Spirit Formation traps outside are but a child's play. If he had truly wanted to seal this place, you would have simply not been able to enter. This is the most important location. If there are any traps here, unless you find something, avoid them. Otherwise, if they are triggered, you will certainly die," Eggy reminded very seriously.

"Mm." Chu Feng nodded. He knew the degree of strength the master here possessed, but because of his nature, he was absolutely not going to leave empty-handed. As such, he leapt into the air and carefully observed the fake world.

Chu Feng first flew towards the east, but other than finding some beautiful sceneries, there were no other discoveries. Furthermore, he quickly reached the end. So, he could only turn around and head in the other direction.

Finally, Chu Feng discovered that this world was a rectangle. If he flew to the east, west, or south, he would arrive at the end very soon and would be stopped by an invisible Spirit Formation. However, if he headed to the north, it was very vast, almost as if it were endless.

"Heavens! That bird... It's so big!" After passing several mountains, Chu Feng's pupils suddenly shrank. His heart was also shaken because on a nearby mountain range, he discovered an enormous skeleton.

It was the remains of a huge bird. It had already died for a long time-at least several tens of thousands of years. On the skeleton itself, one could feel the old and ancient aura it exuded.

From the skeleton alone, Chu Feng knew that the bird was definitely terrifyingly powerful when alive because based on the strange and huge skeleton alone, it was enough to know it was not an ordinary species.

Casting aside its sharp claws, its size was really too big. It was as large as a small hill, and if it were still alive, it would have definitely covered the sky when it flew and stunned the world. A mere flap of its wings could create a violent hurricane, destroy mountains, ruin all living things, and slaughter a population. Doing all that would require it no more effort than a thought. As such, it was definitely not something kindhearted.

"Heh, it seems like it's a Monstrous Beast from ancient times! They're extinct now, but when it was alive, it looks like it was a peak Martial King. With just a step in cultivation, it would have been able to become a Martial Emperor, an existence that could rule this world. But sadly, when it was shaken by someone else's might, the bones throughout its body cracked, all of its organs broke down, and, in the end, even its Source Energy was cleanly sucked away," Eggy narrated.

When he looked carefully, Chu Feng too discovered countless small cracks on the huge bird's thick bones. It did seem like it was shocked to death by a person's might.

When he saw that, another hint of solemnness emerged into his eyes. With might alone, an existence such as this was killed. How powerful was that person?

"Wait, it's not only one! This looks like an enormous group of the same species." After flying past that mountain, Chu Feng felt even more shocked. On the vast mountain ranges, there were countless horrifying skeletons of huge birds scattered everywhere.

The total number was truly too big. There were at least several tens of thousands, and there were varying sizes, and varying strengths. However, the smallest was still several tens of feet high while the weakest was at the Heaven realm. Moreover, they were all killed by pressure of a person's might. That was definitely a powerful Monstrous Beast species, yet it was eradicated by someone.

After passing through those mountain ranges, Chu Feng arrived at a vast valley. Within the valley, there was also an accumulation of countless skeletons of Monstrous Beasts. They were another Monstrous Beast species that were similarly powerful when alive, but now, they were only a pile of white bones.

In his journey afterwards, he was nearly able to see bones everywhere. Most of them came from Monstrous Beasts, and all of them belonged to a single species in unimaginable numbers. From the shape of their bones, one could imagine how powerful and terrifying they were when alive.

On the road, even Chu Feng, who had experienced quite a bit of the world, felt his heart tremble from fright. Complicated emotions and questions emerged as well.

So many powerful Monstrous Beasts were all killed by the pressure of might alone. The same method, the same massacre, thus it was likely all done by a single person. Yet, what sort of existence was able to slaughter so many powerful Monstrous Beasts, and what sort of deep animosity did that person have which led to such an eradication?

MGA: Chapter 837 – Remains of a Martial Emperor

"This..."

However, when Chu Feng flew over another vast mountain range and arrived at an endless grassland, he was completely astonished.

What appeared before his eyes was not a simple grassland-there were white bones densely covering its surface, forming an endless ocean of bones both grand and horrifying.

Moreover, within the vast skeletons, there were not only enormous Monstrous Beast remains, there were also remains of humans. There was truly too many; it was simply incalculable with numbers.

In addition, no matter if it was the humans', or the Monstrous Beasts', they were all well-known and powerful characters. Not a single one of them was subpar.

"This is truly terrifying. So many peak experts, and even so many peak Martial Kings, were all killed by pressure alone. What sort of existence was the one that killed them? Could it have been a Martial Emperor?" At that moment, even Chu Feng couldn't help inhaling deeply, unable to remain calm.

Of the multitudinous remains, there was nearly no one who was weak. It was likely any one of them, if released to the Eastern Sea Region, could become an overlord.

However, such powerful existences had all become bones. Moreover, they were forcibly killed by someone's pressure. It meant that the person who killed them was very powerful and very horrifying.

"Haha, interesting! This is getting more and more interesting..." But in contrast with the shock Chu Feng felt, Eggy on the other hand became more and more excited. She yelled out loudly, "Chu Feng, look! Look at the skeleton between those two Monstrous Beasts!"

"Which one?" Chu Feng asked.

"The translucent human skeleton over there that's letting off a bit of light! Do you see it? When that person was alive, he was a truly a cultivation expert!"

Following Eggy's words and looking over, Chu Feng too couldn't help gasping deeply. There was indeed a very special skeleton. It was a human's, and it was a very special one: white as a jade, containing divine might, and it was even emitting faint radiance. Not only did it look like a treasure on the surface, there was even a feeling of indestructibility. Not to mention Chu Feng, even Martial Kings would find it difficult to damage the bones in the slightest. It was the remains of a Martial Emperor!

"Heavens! It's a Martial Emperor! A Martial Emperor was killed!" Chu Feng could not remain collected any longer. His face was filled with astonishment as he leapt forward, rushed down from the sky, and wanted to get closer to the Martial Emperor's remains to investigate it.

*boom*

"Ahh-"

However, before he even touched it, a powerful burst of might spread out from the remains. It forced Chu Feng back into the air, and he only stopped after flying for dozens of miles.

When he landed on the ground, he felt that the bones throughout his body were nearly shattered. His blood was boiling, and he almost coughed up blood. Luckily, he wasn't seriously injured, but he still received some wounds.

After wiping away the traces of blood at the corners of his mouth, Chu Feng's complexion was quite unsightly. He said, "Eggy, even though the aura just now was very weak, it seemed to be an Imperial Might. Imperial Might only Martial Emperors possess."

"It is." Eggy nodded.

"But it's clearly only a skeleton, and even its Source Energy was cleanly absorbed! How is it possible for an Imperial Might to remain?" Chu Feng felt confused. The typical Source Energy wasn't there, so the skeleton should be normal. Yet, the one just now was clearly different.

"Idiot, a Martial Emperor is, after all, a Martial Emperor! It is a true powerful person, an existence that can call upon the winds and rains, and can move mountains and fill oceans. Even after death, their might remains. This remnant energy will never be extinguished, and with the strength you currently possess, you shouldn't even think of approaching it," Eggy explained.

"Powerful." After hearing Eggy's words, Chu Feng felt even more amazed. He wasn't amazed at the power of the Martial Emperor, but at the killer which murdered the Martial Emperor.

Even though he was unable to get too close up before being forced away by the Imperial Might, he still noticed a fatal injury on the Martial Emperor's skeleton.

That injury was very fiercely made, and the Martial Emperor was precisely killed by that single strike. Other than that strike, there were no other wounds on the skeleton of the Martial Emperor. That meant the unimaginably powerful Martial Emperor was killed by a person's single attack. That was quite unbelievable.

"Hehe, this is truly interesting. I didn't think there would be such a person in the continent of the Nine Provinces." Eggy started getting excited.

"Eggy, do you mean that everyone here was killed by the creator of this Asura Ghost Tower?" Chu Feng knew what Eggy meant from her words.

"It's most likely that. Otherwise, why would he seal these useless skeletons in the ghost tower?" Eggy said.

"That's true." Chu Feng nodded, expressing agreement.

"Heh, this is truly too interesting. Even I must admit the creator of this Asura Ghost Tower is a bit impressive," Eggy said with a smile. She was oddly happy after seeing so many skeletons of powerful animals and people.

"Yeah! To be able to kill a Martial Emperor in a single strike... What sort of power is that?" Chu Feng could also imagine how powerful that person was.

"But sadly, judging by the changes that have occurred to these skeletons, they have likely already died for several tens of thousands of years. It's been too long ago... They are also likely from the Ancient Era. The existences from that era have nearly been all extinct. So, I'm guessing you won't have a chance to see the powerful figure of the master of this Asura Ghost Tower," Eggy said with a bit of pity.

"They've all died, huh?" Chu Feng's complexion changed slightly, then he quickly asked, "The matters from the Ancient Era are like puzzles. Even though many legends have been passed throughout the ages, it's impossible to determine which are true and which are false. Eggy, you seem to know about these ancient things?"

"How could I know? I've just heard a few things, that's all. They say this world's Ancient Era was the era where experts came forth, an era where there was an endless stream of people with unique abilities and geniuses.

"However, that has already become the past. Right now, the people of that era have nearly all died. The matters regarding that era also, along with the people, slowly disappeared." Eggy shook her head. One could tell even the proud queen felt a bit of sorrow since she missed such a prosperous era.

"Then is there a possibility that the people from the Ancient Era survived with special methods, and are just unwilling to show themselves?"

When the Ancient Era was mentioned, Chu Feng couldn't help but recall the huge face that covered the sky within the Martial Marking Immortal Realm on the Misty Peak, the mysterious and powerful existence, and also the powerful creatures he had never seen before. Chu Feng faintly felt they were not creatures belonging to their era.

MGA: Chapter 838 – Emperor of Massacre

He thought of such a question because the Misty Peak came from the ancient times, and Lady Piaomiao, because of the special power on the Misty Peak, survived for nearly a thousand years. It was something that defied common sense, and even though she was a Martial King, she still didn't have the strength to live so long. The only reason she could was by relying on the special power of the Misty Peak.

That was also clear proof of something: besides raising one's cultivation to achieve longevity, one could also rely on external power.

And if, with Lady Piaomiao's cultivation, she could live so long by relying on the power of the Misty Peak, why could the peak experts from ancient times not have survived until now?

"Heh, whether they've survived I don't know, but I do know if there's someone who has survived since that era, they will definitely be an extremely horrifying person. It would be fine if they don't show themselves, but if they do, then it would stir up quite a commotion." Eggy lightly smiled. There was actually yearning on her beautiful little face.

Then, she said, "Continue checking. I have a feeling that there's something extremely powerful left behind here."

"Mm." Chu Feng also thought similarly. Without hesitation, he leapt up and continued flying over the vast sea of bones.

As he did so, Chu Feng found several more skeletons of Martial Emperors, and all of them had died by a single strike. Such a scene made the shock in Chu Feng's heart reach an extreme level.

In his mind's eye, he could see the overwhelming power of the experts represented by vast sea of bones. When they allied together, they manifested destructive might to fight against a single enemy, yet were slaughtered by that very same person's might, which resulted in them becoming that very scene.

"What is that?" As he flew above the bones, Chu Feng noticed a black palace at the very end.

Indeed, a black-coloured palace. It was entirely pitch-black, akin to ink, and it was like an enormous sharp sword imbedded into the earth. It was very grand, and at the same time, gave others a majestic feeling-one that prevented any from desecrating such a place.

"Haha, finally, it's the end! Chu Feng, look! This is the end of the Asura Ghost Tower! If there is anything good in this place, it's definitely in this palace!" Eggy shouted excitedly.

"Indeed, we've reached the end." Chu Feng first gazed with alert, then discovered there was an invisible Spirit Formation blocking his path behind the palace. As such, he knew this was the end of the Asura Ghost Tower, and also the most important section.

Chu Feng had cast his Spirit Formation outward but was unable to detect anything. The black-coloured palace appeared as if it could block anything and everything. If he wanted to know what was within, he could only enter himself.

After landing onto the ground, Chu Feng found the palace was truly quite huge. In front of it there was a wide path, and on the path there were square, crystalline black stones. On the sides of the path, there were several statues of soldiers holding large swords.

They wore the same armour, and held the same weapon, but they all looked different. They were very overbearing and were dozens of meters in height. They were like guardians as they stood in rank and order by the sides of the path, protecting the glory of the palace's master.

As he continued on the path, he felt an even stronger feeling of the palace's majesty. Despite being completely black, it was not made out of the same materials. The palace was not all that big, but it gave people a feeling of immensity.

Finally, as he walked along the path, he reached the end, arriving in front of the palace's door. That huge door was at least thirty meters tall, and in the middle there was a special symbol. Chu Feng was unable to determine what it was, but it could be described with a single word: overwhelming.

On the two sides of the door, and above the door, there were several big words written-they were a couplet.

Upper part of couplet on the right: "What are the truths in the journey of cultivation? Only I alone devote myself in killing monsters."

Lower part on the left: "In the world under heaven, who is the ruler? I slaughter my way to bring order to the universe."

Above: "Emperor of Massacre"

"Emperor of Massacre? Is that the master of this place?"

When he saw that, Chu Feng's eyes lit up. He could tell, from the font of the couplet, that the person who wrote it was most definitely an expert. Within the strokes, there was clear arrogance and domineeringness. One could see that when he wrote those words, he must have stirred up quite a scene. Most likely, these words were written by the creator of the Asura Ghost Tower.

"Heh, Chu Feng, quickly go in! There's definitely treasure inside, but after entering, be careful. Unless the master of this place is oddly generous, he will not let you take his things for no reason at all," Eggy reminded with both nervousness and excitement.

"Mm." Chu Feng nodded, then went up and pushed the huge door. After some rumbling, the space between the doors gradually increased, then the door was completely opened.

After pushing open the door, what appeared before Chu Feng's eyes was a very vast palace. It was enormous, and the decorations and style inside were very exquisite. However, it was the same as the outside-everything was black.

When he walked within the palace, Chu Feng had a feeling of tininess. Although there weren't treasures within the palace, it seemed that in the perspective of the master, for visitors to walk within the palace was an honour in itself.

But regardless of the palace's size, there would always be an end. After walking for just a short while, there was an odd light emitted in front of them-it was a forging furnace. Moreover, in front of the forging furnace, there was a sign.

Judging by its font, it was the same as the couplet at the door so it was likely written by the master of this place. As for the content of the sign, it was:

SPIRIT POWER FORGING FURNACE-IT AWAITS ONLY THE FATED.

NON-WORLD SPIRITISTS DO NOT ENTER!

"Spirit Power Forging Furnace? What is this?" Chu Feng asked in confusion.

Eggy was also looking at it carefully. After a good while, she said, "I'm not too sure either, but it should be some sort of formation for training one's Spirit power. It's likely it was created by the master of this place, but I don't know if it is good luck or bad luck. Is it a trap, or is it a rare opportunity? How about you use your Spirit power to examine it?"

But Chu Feng shook his head after hearing Eggy's words, and said, "It doesn't work. In front of this furnace, there's a Spirit Formation. I can't determine what exactly this furnace is.

"However, there's a trick to this Spirit Formation. Even though it is invisible, it's not just a simple obstruction. And since the master of this place is so powerful, if he truly wanted to harm someone, he could have just set up a trap.

"With his strength, he could kill countless people with just a simple one. It would be of no trouble for him to make an inescapable slaughtering formation. There's no need for him to spend so much effort to create this Asura Ghost Tower, requiring only those with experience to enter this place.

"So, I feel that this is an opportunity. An extremely rare opportunity," Chu Feng said firmly.

"Mm, you're right. Even if it's dangerous inside, it's a test. What comes after the test are definitely things greatly beneficial for you.

"You've already looked through the entire palace, and the only thing interesting is this Spirit Power Forging Furnace. If there truly is something good in this place, then it can only be this.

"What are you preparing to do now? Do you want to venture in, or retreat?" Eggy asked with a smile.

"Hehe, since I've already arrived here, I do want to give it a try. Would you dare as well?" Chu Feng said with a smile.

"Hmph. It wouldn't be me if I didn't dare. Go in. You can bear the brunt of the blame anyway." Eggy curled her lips as an expression of yearning and excitement emerged on her beautiful face.

"Don't worry. I have a feeling that my intuition won't be wrong. The master of this place wouldn't have set a trap for no reason. As you said, it will be at most a test, and since we're here already, why would I fear his test?"

Chu Feng lightly smiled and similar to Eggy, a smile of yearning appeared on his face. Then, he stepped forward and headed towards the Spirit Power Forging Furnace. But before he even came all that close to it, Chu Feng felt his vision distort, and everything around him started to quickly spin.

When everything became silent, Chu Feng couldn't help but tightly furrow his brows as a hint of graveness flashed into his eyes. He thought, "There's indeed something good here, but it won't be that easy to get it. However, that's fine. I've already prepared for this."

The reason Chu Feng had such thoughts was because everything around him had changed. He was no longer within the palace but had entered a cuboid, medium-sized space of Spirit Formations.

There were two doors by the sides, and at the center, there were two people made of wood: one black and one white.

As for the ground, there were rows of words. On the topmost one, there were five: GATE OF LIFE AND DEATH

Underneath these words, there were the rules on how to deactivate this challenge formation:

Two Spirit Formation gates. One to life, one to death.

Two wood people, and both know which leads to life and which leads to death. However, one only speak truths, and one only speaks lies.

There's only one chance, and you can only choose one of the two wood people, and ask it a single question. As for life and death, it's not up to the heavens. It's up to you.

"How should we ask? Isn't this a bit too difficult? At least tell me which one speaks truths and which one speaks lies!" Eggy couldn't help cursing when she saw the rules.

"If they tell you that, it would be too simple, right?" Chu Feng shook his head as he smiled, and felt they wouldn't have given such an easy challenge.

"Then what should we do now? Rather than asking these two woodheads, why not just choose one yourself? Regardless, we don't know which one will tell you the correct answer. You can only ask one question, but no matter what they say, you can't believe it. In the end, isn't it just up to fate?" Eggy said as she curled her lips.

"That may not be so." Chu Feng lightly smiled, and without hesitation, he walked towards the white wood person. After coming up to it, Chu Feng pointed at the black wood person before asking the white one, "If I ask it which one is the door of death, how will it reply?"

*hmm* Immediately after Chu Feng spoke, the body of the white wood person trembled slightly. Then, it exuded a faint aura of life before it pointed at the door on the left, spitting out six words with a stiff and odd tone, "That is the door of death."

"Thank you." Chu Feng smiled, then strode forth, briskly walking straight towards the door of death as pointed by the white wood person.

"Oi, Chu Feng, have you gone mad? That wood person said this is the door of death!" Eggy was terrified by Chu Feng's actions.

However, as if he couldn't hear Eggy's words, he continued moving forward and in the end, without hesitation, stepped into the door of death.

*hmm* In the instant Chu Feng stepped in, everything in his surroundings twisted and transformed. When it all returned to normal, Chu Feng had returned to the palace and passed the invisible Spirit Formation. Currently, he was standing right in front of the Spirit Power Forging Furnace.

"Waa, we're out! Chu Feng, how did you do it?" At that instant, Eggy was stunned. She could not understand how Chu Feng chose the correct one, and from the "door of death" nonetheless!

"Heh, I didn't think the great intelligent queen would have such a slow-witted moment!" Chu Feng said smugly.

"Ehh... Less of that. I was just too lazy to think about it. Now quickly tell me how you did it!" Eggy quickly asked impatiently.

"This is actually very simple. I pointed at the black wood person and asked the white wood person what the black one's reply would be if I asked which one was the door of death.

"If the white wood person spoke the truth and the black wood person lied, then the white wood person would definitely point at the door of life and tell me it was the door of death," Chu Feng explained.

"Why? The white wood person speaks truths, so why did it tell you a lie?" Eggy was even more confused.

"Because I asked what the answer of the black wood person would be. It's the one that speaks lies, so if I ask it, it will tell me a lie and say the door of life is the door of death.

"As for the white wood person, since it speaks truths, it won't trick me so it will say the exact same answer as the black wood person," Chu Feng explained.

"But, how are you certain the white wood person speaks truths and the black wood person speaks lies?" Eggy asked quickly again.

"Silly, if it's swapped and the white wood person speaks lies and the black wood person truths, then the black wood person will tell me which the true door life death is. However, the white wood person must speak lies, so it cannot say the same answer as the black wood person, as it would be a truth. As such, it will still give me the wrong answer," Chu Feng explained in detail.

"Ah, I understand! It's not that you took a guess at which spoke truths and which spoke lies, it's that your question was very tricky. No matter its reply, it will say the wrong answer so as long as you do the opposite you'll be fine!

"Haha, I'm truly too smart!" When she heard all that, Eggy, the queen, was elated as if it were all analyzed by her. One could tell that she felt really happy to have been able to solve the mystery in her heart.

Chu Feng lightly smiled at Eggy's reaction. It was in her nature to be so odd, but it was still rather cute.

However, right now, Chu Feng didn't have the mindset to admire Eggy's cuteness because after passing through the invisible Spirit Formation, Chu Feng was able to feel the exceptionality of the Spirit Power Forging Furnace at such a close distance.

MGA: Chapter 840 – Seeking Quick Gains

The Spirit Power Forging Furnace was entirely black. Inside, there was a white flame burning. It looked mysterious, and it was clearly quite peculiar.

After he went near it, the Spirit Power Forging Furnace seemed to have already been completely activated. On its black exterior, rows of light-blue words appeared.

"The Spirit Power Forging Furnace can only be used once, and after entering, it will be fully activated. It can become stronger in accordance to the user's wish by transforming the flames.

"It's advised that the one destined here to judge your own abilities correctly. If you cannot continue, please leave the furnace. Do not be greedy, nor be rash and aim for short-term beneficial effects. Otherwise, all of your prior work will be lost completely.

"As expected, it's for training Spirit power! Moreover, it gives a clear warning. It seems that the master of this Asura Ghost Tower isn't bad at all," Chu Feng said quite joyfully.

"Isn't bad? He's clearly showing off his high-level techniques to make others revere him.

"Instead of making a formation like this, how much better would it have been to just leave some wealth behind?" Eggy curled her lips. She didn't seem to be too satisfied with a gift like this.

"Heh, I feel like this is precisely the sincere thoughts of the master. Of course, it would have been good if he had just left some wealth behind, but if he did that, he wouldn't have been able to test the people who came. Instead, this Spirit Power Forging Furnace can compensate for such a deficiency.

"To World Spiritists, this Spirit Power Forging Furnace definitely benefits them greatly, and it's something that can change one's own strength.

"As for the degree of change, that'll depend on themself. I must say that the master of this place is quite skillful." However, in contrast to Eggy, Chu Feng was very satisfied.

"You know how to feel content with what you have, huh? Since it's like this, quickly enter. Let me see how long you can stay in the Spirit Power Forging Furnace," Eggy said with a smile.

"Heh, just wait and see." Chu Feng smiled, then stepped into the Spirit Power Forging Furnace.

*boom* Immediately after entering, the white-coloured flames surged up to him like a wave. Not only did they surround Chu Feng, they fiercely attacked him.

Like its introduction, the flames were mysterious. Clearly they were flames, but they lacked any temperature. They were unable to burn Chu Feng's clothes, and instead, strangely melded into his body, swirling straight towards Chu Feng's intangible Spirit power.

At that instant, Chu Feng could feel his Spirit power changing slightly with the attacks from the white-coloured flames. His strength was being honed, but the effect wasn't really noticeable. It was even inferior to his Asura Ghost Axe which he used to constantly train himself.

*boom* As though feeling Chu Feng's disappointment, another huge explosion came from the Spirit Power Forging Furnace. The white-coloured flames actually transformed and became grey-coloured flames, which too started to refine Chu Feng's Spirit power.
