"We have found it!"
In the depths of the underground palace, behind a certain red-robed man, two blue-eyed, barefoot cultivators let out cries of pleasant surprise, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders.
At this moment, between the two of them, there was a dark red bug that was roughly a foot long and had a pair of wings on its back. It was flapping its wings and crying out.
A person was using a spirit art to control the Fragrance Stealing Spirit Gu. The other person was listening attentively.
The bug was fierce which was why there were very few people in the world who could control it. People who could recognize the bug language were also rare, less than one in ten million people.
"Weird, the location that this Stealing Fragrance Spiritual Sense Bug identifies is one level above …"
"Above? You are talking about the fake tomb? "
Han Qing's expression was filled with surprise.
Who would have thought that when the tomb was about to be opened and the 12 Copper Men were about to appear, Zong Shou and the others would retreat?
"It seems like they are really wary."
The red-robed man laughed weirdly, "This kid has the Book of Eon and can speed up time. Since he sensed danger, he would most probably use the book to prepare some other methods to deal with the calamity. "
While speaking, he looked at the black-skinned Night Demons with wings on their backs as well as the few people with fleeting bodies.
One of them laughed coldly, "We will definitely kill him!"
Then, his tone changed, "However, whether or not we can kill that Zong Shou is something that Yuan Demon Saint Venerable is clear about. You won't disappoint us? "
"Of course!"
The red-robed man nodded his head and retracted his arrogant attitude.
"All of you should know that Zhongxuan is from the Taoist Faction of the Cloud World and also obtained the legacy of Xufu's Qi Cultivator?"
The people around obviously knew a lot about the Cloud World and weren't surprised at all.
"Then, do all of you know that when Xufu left the Cloud World, the Qin Emperor placed restrictions on him?"
The red-robed man said flatly, "Xufu was someone whose talents exceeded Long Ying 10,000 years ago. Long Ying could step into the Saint Venerable Realm, so naturally, Xufu could too. However, as long as the restrictions weren't removed, his life and death would still be in the hands of others. That's why this person hasn't shown himself in the past ten thousand years. "
At this moment, Han Qing roughly understood the red-robed man's meaning. "Martial Uncle Chi means that Yin Yu is indeed here for the twelve bronze men. But Zhongxuan might not be like that? "
When the red-robed man heard this, he immediately chuckled. "It's rare for you to be smart for once."
Han Qing's face was ashen. He was dissatisfied, but he could only suppress it for the time being.
Chi Hongyi also had limitless potential. He was the second person who had a chance to reach End Realm after Blood Saint Demon Lord.
Usually, the two Saint Venerables would allow the Demonic Sect to have internal strife, but now, the Demonic Sect was in a precarious situation, and its foundation was severely damaged.
Wushang Yuan Demon wouldn't allow any form of internal conflict.
The other people around him seemed to be deep in thought.
"That's right. Unsealing the restriction spell requires the use of the aura of the King Dao. However, Zhongxuan had always been loyal to the Taishang. He would do his best until his death. He doesn't seem like someone who would use the Ruler? "
The red-robed man broke into a laugh, his voice was still soft and gentle, "This is the use of the Eight Nine Soul Training Technique. Although the soul that is split off is still him, his personality might not be the same. Moreover, how would you know that when Zhongxuan served the Taishang, he didn't have any selfish motives? When a person dies, the coffin covers his coffin. We may not know what he was planning when he was alive. "
The person who spoke was stunned and then asked in confusion, "What does Zhongxuan's plan for the Qin Emperor Tomb have to do with us killing Zong Shou?"
"Naturally, there is a connection!"
The red-robed man replied calmly, "It is just a battle between two dragons. One is a living dragon and the other is a half-dead old dragon. I am looking forward to it … "
Actually, there were other methods but there was no need to mention them. After all, the Ten Thousand Spirit Energy Body was really rare in the world. The Demon Sect had only found one in thousands of years.
Thinking about it in his heart, the red-robed man's eyes were filled with doubt.
The only weird thing was that that person was willing to pay such a price to kill Zong Shou here. Why was that?
※ ※ ※
Entering the Qin Emperor Main Tomb once more, Zong Shou and the other four instantly felt that the situation was totally different from a day ago.
The entire Spirit Gathering Formation was activated and the broken talismans were all repaired.
However, maybe because most of the strength was gathered in the main tomb. The few of them walked in the tomb path and it wasn't as dangerous as yesterday.
On the contrary, from the direction of the main tomb, strong spiritual energy waves spread out.
Even from a hundred miles away, one could sense the ripples.
However, Zong Shou was holding a message talisman and was in deep thought.
The talisman was sent by Zhang Huai, using a secret technique to spread thousands of miles, forcefully passing through the Dragon Formation and entering his hands.
Just thinking about it, one knew that Zhang Huai had paid a huge price.
Apart from Zhang Huai's judgment of the situation, there was also Kong Rui's words.
Looking at the sky, there might be a calamity …
Calamity? Did he mean that Zong Shou's trip to the Qin Emperor Tomb might be fatal?
What followed were all apologies. The heavens were in chaos. Kong Rui only noticed after it happened. It was the Imperial Astronomer's fault for not reminding him in time.
He also gave a suggestion that retreating was a calamity and advancing was a calamity.
If he retreated now, he could keep his life, but it would also cause a calamity.
Taishang might be the first to bear the brunt, but Gan wouldn't be any better in the future.
That would be a calamity for the world …
If he advanced, it would be his own calamity and he might not be able to stop that calamity from happening.
In other words, whether he advanced or retreated was his own choice.
Zhang Huai was also at his wit's end. He didn't know what was going on in the tomb, so it was tough for him to make a judgment. He only told him what he had learned from the sect in the past few days.
However, although this news seemed useless, it really helped him a lot.
Zong Shou frowned. Xufu, Qin Emperor …
What exactly happened when the Qin Dynasty was destroyed ten thousand years ago?
Could the Qin Emperor really come back to life and rule the world once more?
Was this a storm caused by him, a butterfly that shouldn't have existed? 10,000 years ago, such a thing didn't happen.
Although the situation was dangerous, knowing all of this was better than being caught off guard when things came to a head.
If he knew where the danger came from, then he would know how to deal with it.
Firstly, it was Shiyue. He didn't believe that this person didn't hear anything. Since he knew, then he definitely wouldn't sit still and do nothing.
So, where was this person hiding now? He was the only person in the tomb apart from Cang Shengdao and the Kenzō Sect that he could borrow strength from.
However, what should he do now?
Shaking his head, Zong Shou stopped his thoughts. He wasn't good at scheming. What Zong Shou was best at was using strength to break the situation.
Did he want his life? Then, let's give it a try! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
