Chapter 1584: Chapter 1585: Demon Suppression Seal Chapter 1584: Chapter 1585: Demon Suppression Seal “Desolation God?” Song Jian was startled, for it was the first time he realized that, within this Ancient Sword Star Semi-plane, a real deity was actually sealed.
One must know that the Sect Leader of the Imperial Sword Sect, along with dozens of peak masters and hundreds of elders, were almost all from the Legendary Realm, and not even one was at the Demi-God Level. It was truly unbelievable that they could seal a real deity.
“Master, may I ask, how did you all seal the Desolation God back then?” Song Jian couldn't help but ask.
Duan Xingliu glanced at Song Jian and snorted coldly, “Do you really think the Imperial Sword Sect has no existence that has broken through the Legendary Realm?”
“What, does the Imperial Sword Sect have Demi-God Level members?” Song Jian asked in surprise.
“Aren't you one?” Duan Xingliu sneered, “Moreover, do you really think that the Imperial Sword Sect, which has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, would have no Divine-level powerhouses, no foundation of its own?”
“Yes, Master, please tell me about it,” Song Jian said with a smile, not caring about Duan Xingliu's tone and attitude.
This was a secret of the Imperial Sword Sect's heritage, something ordinary disciples, perhaps even some peak masters and elders, were not necessarily aware of.
“Hmph, what's the use of telling you? Are you able to lift the curse of the gods?” Duan Xingliu's face fell, seemingly remembering something, and he said irritably, “This time you've come back to check on the Demon Suppression Seal, to see what's wrong with it and why there's an aura of the Desolation God leaking out. Also, to investigate whether the Desolation God is close to awakening. If it is truly about to awaken, we must prepare in advance.”
“Alright, Master, I'll go alone this time. If the junior brothers are safe, I'll take the opportunity to rescue them as well,” Song Jian nodded and said, “By the way, if the Desolation God really does wake up, I'll just kill him off. A deity that has just awakened probably hasn't recovered its full power yet. While it's weak, I'll take its life!”
“Don't be careless. The Desolation God is also an ancient deity that has existed for tens of thousands of years. If it weren't for the heavy injuries it sustained during the war of the gods, the predecessors of the Imperial Sword Sect might not have been able to seal it!” Duan Xingliu frowned and warned Song Jian, “The Desolation God is not like those divine creatures you've encountered before, it is a real deity, remember that!”
Song Jian nodded, not saying anything further, and took the Demon Suppression Seal Restoration Scroll handed over by Duan Xingliu. After bowing, he turned and flew towards the direction of the Ancient Desolate Abyss.
The Ancient Desolate Abyss was still enshrouded in poisonous mists. This kind of black mist, which possesses a deadly poison, would continuously drain the life force of any being other than the Desolate Beasts that entered, ultimately leading to their slow death. The deeper one went, the more potent the black mist became. Unless one had an Anti-Demonic Potion, even Legendary Realm powerhouses would not dare to venture deep into the Ancient Desolate Abyss.
As Song Jian flew on his way, he could clearly sense that there were many more Desolate Beasts than before, and the deeper he went, the greater the number of powerful Desolate Beasts emerged. He had already detected the existence of dozens of Desolate Beasts at the pinnacle of the Legendary Realm.
“Are these all effects caused by the leakage of the Desolation God's aura?” Song Jian wondered silently. In the Abyssal Hell, ordinary abyssal demons indeed could devour higher-level demons to advance, but he had never heard of monsters becoming more powerful solely through the influence of an aura.
Flying all the way, Song Jian finally arrived at the location of the Demon Sealing Array. Here, faint golden light warded off the encroaching black mists, and the complex seal patterns could make anyone who looked at them feel dizzy and disoriented.
Song Jian already had some understanding of the Demon Suppression Seal and had even mastered part of it, though it was difficult to transform this knowledge into his own strength.
“Perhaps I can take this opportunity to fully master the Demon Suppression Seal!” Song Jian thought to himself.
You should know that the Demon Suppression Seal is a legendary formation. Mastering it would greatly enhance Song Jian's understanding and mastery of arrays. Perhaps then, he could even use the Spirit Sword as a material to lay out an even more powerful array.
Carefully perceiving the Demon Suppression Seal and looking for damaged parts, Duan Xingliu believed that only if the seal were damaged would the aura of the Desolation God leak out, which explained the emergence of so many mythical beasts.
After three full days, Song Jian had inspected the entire Demon Suppression Seal. Meanwhile, his original comprehension of the incomplete Demon Suppression Seal had reached completion. At last, he could display the entirety of the Demon Suppression Seal from the Sword Array Atlas.
However, he had only just begun to master it. If he wanted to use the Spirit Swords from the Thousand Swords Art as materials to lay out the Demon Suppression Seal, he feared it would still take a long while to comprehend.
“Phew, this Demon Suppression Seal is profoundly intricate. It's indeed worthy of being a legendary formation. It might not be inferior to the Ten Thousand Dragons Array I've seen before. No wonder it can seal the Desolation God!” Song Jian thought to himself.
However, after patrolling for three days, Song Jian found no damages to the Demon Suppression Seal. The entire seal was intact and continuously effective, showing no signs of weakening. After another thorough check and finding no imperfections, he became puzzled.
“If the array is intact, why are there so many mythical beasts, and why is the aura of the Desolation God leaking? Could it be that upon awakening, the Desolation God cannot be completely sealed by the Demon Sealing Array anymore?” Song Jian speculated in his heart.
He had never encountered a true deity before. Now suddenly discovering the possibility of the Demon Suppression Seal's ineffectiveness, he couldn't help but worry. If the Desolation God was to fully awake, the Demon Suppression Seal might be utterly destroyed.
Just then, the entire Demon Suppression Seal began to tremble, as if something was striking against the seal.
Song Jian's complexion changed dramatically. Whatever was causing such a violent tremor in the Demon Suppression Seal must be the sealed Desolation God.
The trembling of the Demon Suppression Seal lasted for only a brief ten seconds before it calmed down. However, a dense and strange aura lingered in the air, the aura released by the Desolation God. This kind of aura could enhance the strength of ordinary mythical beasts and even turn ordinary creatures into mythical beasts in a very short time, much like a biohazard virus.
“The Desolation God has not fully awakened yet, but it has already caused such a massive tremor. Once it truly awakens, I'm afraid that the Demon Suppression Seal alone will not be enough to contain it!” Song Jian thought silently.
At this moment, Song Jian suddenly received a system notification:
