upon noticing the throne, did not immediately approach it, but instead observed the palace itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This palace appeared to be a prisoner of time, sealed away in a corner of history, isolated from the clamor of the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The palace had no doors or windows, as if it were a vast enclosed cage, blocking out all external atmospheres.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only on the thick stone pillars, there were some faint yellow lights flickering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light was weak and wavering, as if it might extinguish at any moment, adding an eerie and terrifying ambiance to this dead silent space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire palace was so vast it sent a chill through the heart, as if no one had arrived here for a long, long time, devoid of any vitality, like a ghost realm forgotten by the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Occasionally, some unclear murals were visible on the walls, already difficult to discern due to the erosion of time, only vaguely showing some grotesque monsters and mysterious ritual scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thick layer of dust piled up like a mountain on the floor, with a small cloud of dust rising with each step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And throughout the palace, aside from the central throne, there was nothing else present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The throne was crafted from some unknown white skeleton, exuding a cold and hard aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below the throne were long-dried bloodstains on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These bloodstains crisscrossed with their color having turned dim and dull yet still emitting a nauseating stench, making one imagine the terrifying scene of blood flowing like rivers that must have occurred here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the central white bone throne, the skeleton was somewhat extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This skeleton was rather slender, starkly different from a regular skeleton, as if an elegant noble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even reduced to bones, it retained a unique charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each bone was as pure as jade, dimly radiating a blood-colored glow under the dim yellow lamplight, seeming to harbor a different strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skeleton sat upright on the throne, posture tall, seemingly still the ruler of this palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its left hand grasped a scepter seemingly polished from blood crystal stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scepter radiated a rich blood-colored glow, as if condensed from blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It appeared as though something precious had once been embedded in the scepter, but now it was empty, leaving only a deep groove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As though completely bereft of authority, this blood-colored scepter no longer emitted any fluctuation of extraordinary power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the skeleton’s right hand was a black scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scroll emitted an ancient aura, with what seemed to be blood-colored writing upon it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The writing was twisted and bizarre, as if an ancient spell, instilling a chill at a mere glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis tried to discern the contents of the writing from a distance but found that his gaze, once touching upon it, seemed to plunge into an endless abyss, inducing dizziness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis promptly withdrew his gaze and looked at the skeleton before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This skeleton gave Lis a faint sense of formidable presence, its presence like surging tides rushing at him in waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, the skeleton seemed utterly dead, showing no signs of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis was somewhat surprised—is this the remains of the once demigod vampire?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He circled the skeleton and throne from afar, scrutinizing every detail, yet saw no scars on the remains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This left him further puzzled, unable to ascertain the cause of this demigod vampire’s demise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did it encounter a mightier foe, falling in an epic battle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or due to some severe injury, gradually perishing amidst endless agony?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis stood in the palace center, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally speaking, relics left behind by demigod vampires wouldn’t be that simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis’s previous experience in the sea of blood actually led him to some conjectures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, encountering something that enhances strength out of nowhere isn’t that easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such occurrences, Lis had encountered on the divine island on Pearl Sea previously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually, arrangements left by strong individuals post-death are aimed at finding someone to inherit or possess their body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In most cases, they seek a suitable candidate for body possession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such strong individuals have no moral constraints whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even their own kin, if possible, would not hesitate to kill them and seize their youthful bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the prior sea of blood, Lis faced threats that weren’t particularly severe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the blood beasts had some strength, they posed no real threat to legendary strongmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most crucial arrangement of that sea of blood was likely that blood-colored sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not a vampire, one wouldn’t be able to sense the power of blood and thus wouldn’t be able to touch the blood-colored sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, vampires would be the likely candidates to come to this palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, the blood power from killing those blood beasts serves to enhance the strength of the soon-to-be possessed body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis had previously speculated this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had made some preparations for this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon arriving at this palace, he found nothing happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis had already noticed there’s no apparent way to leave this palace directly.\u003C\u002Fp>",841,"2026-06-03T10:59:04.413Z","2026-06-03T10:59:12.558Z",1,"novelbin.me","e91fe6e4dbc2c311c86f3fdcd94a97806f6381a82f5d555eb1ee13a118ecef3f","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1646","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1598",1658,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-cover.jpg"]
