"Want to go and see it together?"
Qiu Nian looked at the divine child before her and asked with a light laugh.
"Um..."
"I don't have anything to do anyway. Since you want to go see it, I'll go with you."
After pondering for a moment, Yae nods to Akihime.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian turned around and was about to walk forward.
"Wait a minute, you're not going to walk there again, are you?"
Yae no Miko stared at Qiu Nian's retreating figure, her eyes wide as she asked.
"There's no need for that this time."
"Close your eyes and don't resist."
Qiu Nian chuckled softly upon hearing this, and then spoke to the Divine Child.
Although Yae no Miko had some doubts, she still did as she was told.
As soon as she closed her eyes, the same power as Qiu Nian surged from her body.
Then, she felt the wind around her pick up a bit.
Even the little fox's coquettish cries suddenly disappeared.
"Open your eyes."
As Qiu Nian's voice rang out, Yae no Miko opened her beautiful eyes.
When she saw the scene before her, her pupils contracted sharply, and she stood there dumbfounded.
This...how is this possible?
Chapter 186 The Bones of the Demon God Orobas
What appeared in the distance from Yae no Miko at this moment was the enormous divine remains of the demon god Orobas.
To be precise, it is the skull of Orobas.
A huge snake skull, with its mouth wide open, its structure clearly visible.
Its enormous fangs protrude, exuding both majesty and terror.
The snake's skull has fused with the mountain, with some of its bones exposed.
Having withstood the erosion of time, its surface is covered with cracks and moss, giving it an ancient and weathered appearance.
The bones of the deity were also covered with a mineral called crystallized bone marrow.
These crystallized bone marrow pieces exhibit a unique color and emit an eerie glow.
They grow from the gaps in the bones, containing the power of the remnants of demons.
"This is...Ba Yun Island."
Yae no Miko looked at Akiyuki beside her, feeling quite incredulous.
"Ha ha..."
Isn't it obvious?
Qiu Nian looked at the serpent god skull in front of him, chuckled, and asked.
Hearing Qiu Nian speak so casually.
Yae no Miko was at a loss for words.
She no longer understands this method.
"It's incredible that such a long distance was covered in just a moment?"
"As expected, you gods all have some abnormal abilities."
Yae no Miko looked at the serpent god's skull not far away and was greatly shocked.
But this is fine too, even if a conflict really occurs with the Shadow.
Qiu Nian also had the ability to escape with that traveler from a foreign land.
"My strength has recovered somewhat."
“If I wanted to cross such a distance before, it would have taken me quite a while.”
Looking at the scene in the distance, Qiu Nian explained to the divine child beside her.
"Go and have a look."
After saying that, Qiu Nian walked down the hillside and headed towards the head of the snake god in the distance.
After pondering for a moment while watching Qiu Nian's retreating figure, Yae no Miko followed behind him.
Upon approaching, the Divine Child discovered two Abyss Mages examining the crystals on the skeleton.
Beside the skeleton, many demonic creatures exuding a purplish-black aura roamed nearby.
Including the two abyss mages, there were at least thirty or so demons lurking around the snake's head.
More than twenty of them were Hilichurls, and more than ten were a giant scorpion-shaped monster that had never been seen before.
Except for the Abyss Mage, all of these demons exude the power of evil spirits.
"How can there be so many monsters here..."
Is it because of the evil spirits?
Even Yae no Miko frowned slightly upon seeing this scene.
Qiu Nian was somewhat surprised to see this.
It has been more than two thousand years since the Demon God Orobas invaded Bayun Island during the Demon God War.
If a single skull could breed so many monsters, then the remains of Orobas must be even more numerous.
Moreover, Qiu Nian could clearly sense the aura of the remnants of the demon god still lingering around him.
This aura is intangible, yet it can be truly felt.
The entire island of Bayun was affected by this aura, with dark clouds gathering and frequent lightning strikes.
Then look at the Dihua Marsh in Liyue. More than one demon died there during the Demon War, and now it is a place where birds sing and flowers bloom.
The same applies to other areas, which gives you an idea of how much Xiao and the other four Yakshas made.
Just as Qiu Nian was getting closer, two enormous scorpion-shaped demons discovered Qiu Nian and Yae no Miko.
They were surging with lightning elemental power, and as they ran towards the two of them, they were gripping their pincers.
Seeing this, Qiu Nian waved his hand lightly, and a white aura spread from around him.
These thirty-odd demons, including the two abyss mages, were tainted by this aura.
In an instant, it turned into white specks of light and disappeared completely.
After finishing all this, Qiu Nian still maintained her calm and composed expression, walking forward at a leisurely pace.
Upon witnessing this scene, Yae no Miko's beautiful eyes widened, and she stared blankly at Qiu Nian's retreating figure.
That's how those dozen or so monsters were eliminated in the area that was previously corrupted by the power of the abyss.
And now, he has also eliminated more than thirty monsters in the same way.
She even doubted that even if hundreds of monsters appeared here.
The 20th of autumn can be wiped out in an instant with ease.
Is this ancient god... truly injured?
If such a seemingly casual strike can instantly eliminate dozens of monsters, what about his full-force attack?
Whether it was her imagination or not, she always felt that this ancient god's power was enough to rival that of the shadow.
After a while, Akimoto and Yae no Miko arrived above the snake bone.
Then, Qiu Nian slowly closed her eyes and began to sense the invisible, malevolent aura surrounding her.
"what are you doing?"
Yae no Miko looked at Aki Natsumi beside her and asked with some confusion.
"nothing."
"I just want to see what the Demon God Aurobas experienced in his lifetime."
Qiu Nian kept her eyes closed and shook her head.
Upon hearing this, Yae no Miko's lips twitched slightly.
Look, how do you look?
After a while, under the questioning gaze of Yae no Miko, Akiyasu opened her eyes.
"finish watching?"
Seeing this, Yae no Miko put one hand on her hip and teased.
"Finished watching? How was it? Curious?"
Qiu Nian smiled faintly upon hearing this.
"Of course I'm curious."
"Knowing about Orobas's experiences will give me a lot more material to write light novels."
Yae no Miko smiled and nodded upon hearing this.
"Aurobas, the loser in the war between demons."
"After waking up in the abyss of Inazuma, who had fled from the Liyue region, he originally planned to escape to live out his old age in peace."
Qiu Nian crossed her arms over her chest, looked at the skull at her feet, and began to speak.
"But the people of the White Night Kingdom beneath the abyss are controlled by the deep-sea dragon lizards and struggle in the darkness."
