Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

Shen Yu had a complicated look on his face as he also recognised the Rune Formation engraved on the giant metal door. He sighed.

"It's because it is the Reaper Soul Sealing Rune Formation, one of the most terrifying Sealing Rune Formation. This formation has probably consumed the souls of atleast a million people. Only then, this could work till now."

[Ah! Now I remember. So, that's why I was getting this nasty feeling, huh.]

Nodding, Shen Yu walked forward and touched the metal gate, feeling it's coldness seeping through his skin like a endless death aura.

He sighed, feeling pity for the people who were sacrificed for this sealing formation. A million people. It was a staggering number.

[They could be some evil souls.]

Shen Yu looked at the gate and sighed once again, not knowing how to feel about all of this. He really was a hypocrite.

Shaking his head, he put his both of his hands on the door and whispered.

"Open!"

With a large outburst that sent dust flying around, the Runes on the metal door began to glow in strange golden colour. Then, the creaking sound of something being scrapped against the ground came, as the metal gates slowly began to open up.

"We will decide what to do with these souls later on. Keep an eye on them!"

Shen Yu instructed as he waited for the dust to settle down.

[Gotcha!]

The moment the door went parallel with each other, a sudden outburst from the insides of gate blew away all the smoke and dust. Now, the entrance was clear and seemed to be inviting him.

However, he just stood there and observed the inside. It was a massive temple, from what he could see or maybe a murial. It could be both..

[Master, you were really bad in history, huh.]

Shen Yu rolled his eyes and asked.

"Then I'll say it's a murial."

[Yup! It is a murial. I can feel the intense aura of death from here. Many have come here and never left.]

Shen Yu nodded and strolled inside the murial. The floor and walls were covered in exquisite tiles that were cold to touch. Their whiteness had dimmed in the passage of times.

Miraculously, aside from dust there was no signs of passage of time here. It was as if he was looking at an abandoned house of a few weeks.

After passing through the wide corridor, Shen Yu had to descend spiral stairs that lead downwards. Torches made of special materials were placed on the walls and as he descended more and more, the torches began to light up.

His steps echoed in the empty murial, giving him and eerie feeling. He felt like he was exploring an haunted site and a ghost could pop out from nowhere.

'Well, considering there are literally a million souls sealed in that formation, it really isn't far streched.'

Finally, after descending for a few minutes, he reached the bottom which was yet another corridor.

He narrowed his eyes but still continued to walk, his steps causing him to raise his gaurds. The emptiness, the stillness of this place unnerved him.

[Hehe, is master afraid of ghosts?]

'Probably yeah considering I was scared of practically everything.'

Still, Nancy's company was giving him relaxation even in this kind of eerie atmosphere.

He suddenly came to a halt when he finally reached the end of the corridor. And there lay a vast, giant hall made entirely of gold. The torches lit up as he stepped inside, illuminating every corner of the hall.

"I'll be damned! This is straight out of a movie!"

Shen Yu whistled, seeing such a grand scene before him. The golden hall wasn't empty and was filled with loads of bones.

Yes, bones filled the whole ground and if he was a normal human, he would have trouble seeing the actual floor. Only after he had stepped inside did he truly see the depths of the hall.

The ground of it was actually a thousand metre deep and white pristine bones filled the gap, making an artificial hollow floor.

"Damn! Are these bones of all of the million people?"

Shen Yu cursed but he highly doubted his own claims. He then looked at the sides and found ten giant statues of golden humans sitting on a small chair.

The golden statues were around ten metres in height and wore a golden armour, leaving only some parts of their body on sight. Every single one of them carried a golden weapon, be it a sword or axe, everything was made out from gold.

"What an odd place!"

He then turned to look at the opposite side of the corridor and found a regal throne made entirely out of gold. On the throne, a hunches skeleton sat, having a longsword in his hand and wearing the same golden armour as other statues.

There was a crimson red crown on it's head, which was facing downwards.

[This is probably the court room of a kingdom or something.]

"Most likely yes. However, how did they all end up like this?"

[Probably because of that coffin.]

Shen Yu pursed his lips and looked at the centre of the hall, where a beautiful crimson red coffin with dark wood as it's material, lay.

Surprisingly, it was floating above the bones and didn't touch anything. There were a total of eleven golden chains that bound it.

Shen Yu wasn't in a hurry to check up on the coffin so he waited and looked around. Unfortunately, he didn't find anything interesting aside from Rune Formations that were engraved all around the hall and even in the statues.

"They're probably to stop the intruders, huh."

Guessing the reason for the Rune Formation, Shen Yu went towards the coffin. His wooden sandal stepped on the bones, but didn't break anything.

Coming in front of the coffin, Shen Yu took a deep breath and streched his hand. Just as he was about to touch the coffin, one of the golden chains shot out from the covering and circled itself around his wrist.

Not really surprised at the sudden change of events, Shen Yu looked at the golden chains in suspicion. What were their use...

"Ah! What a wonderful trick!"

Shen Yu smiled as he felt the golden chains sucking away his Qi at a rapid rate. Since he had set his Cultivation to Core Formation Realm, it only took a few seconds for the chain to gobble up all of his Qi.

However, he wasn't worried and simply waited for the next chain of events. It wouldn't be exciting if he just broke everything, after all.

With a quick step, Shen Yu disappeared from his position and appeared at the base of the throne.

The hall shuddered as the golden statues slowly stood from up from their chairs, causing ruckus. However, his focus was on the statue holding spear who had tried to peirce his back.

"I see! The protectors of the coffin? Or maybe protector of the realm from whatever is inside?"

Shen Yu wondered, looking at the giants slowly walking towards him. Their giant feet fell on the floor made of bones, and nothing happened.

The bones remained intact even after being pressured by tones of weight.

[Probably a Rune Formation working below on the floor!]

Shen Yu hummed and focused his attention back on the statues. They were all looking at him with their empty eye sockets. Suddenly, sparks of crimson red appeared in them, before their whole head lit up in flames.

He also noticed that the corridor he came from was nowhere to be seen. He was now trapped in a underground murial with ten giant statues, ready to crush him.

"Tier 8! Just how the fuck they died?"

Shen Yu was really confused. Every single one of the giants was at Tier 8, which was baffling considering the state of Qing Empire. Not to mention, even in the Holy Lands, Tier 8 puppets would be invaluable.

They possessed power enough to decimate whole sects. Just this was enough to tell how fearsome they were.

And now, not only one but ten of them were standing before him. All serving this murial for who knows how many decades or centuries.

'And then there's this guy!'

Shen Yu ignored the statues walking towards him and turned around to face the throne. He looked at the skeleton and narrowed his eyes.

[He was definitely at the peak of Tribulation Realm before he died. To think someone like him would end up in such a state.]

This was what confused him the most. Just what happened to make even Tribulation Realm powerhouse, who almost stood at the peak of this world to sacrifice not only themselves, but a million people alongside them.
