The five heroes of the Ancient Souls Clan had different levels of strength. Even though they were all high-level Zun cultivators, the eldest, Hun Qiang, was seventy percent strong. In other words, if Hun Qiang lost, the five heroes would collapse.
After that short battle, Lin Feng could see that only Hun Qiang could fight against him. The others were just there to make up the numbers. Lin Feng didn't care about them anymore.
"Many ancient characters have fallen, but I can translate them," said Lin Feng. Lin Feng raised his head and looked at the ancient characters on the wall. Many of the characters had been destroyed during the battle, but if he compared them with the characters in the booklet, he would be able to translate them.
"Master, you take care of the east, I'll take care of the west!" Shouted Lin Feng to Old Zu Ti. Then, he lowered his head and started translating. Lin Feng was looking forward to it, so this boring job was very interesting.
… …
In the Palace of Heaven and Earth of the Faran Empire, the old emperor was sitting on his throne with his hands on his legs. He was staring at the eldest prince, Fa Chun, who was kneeling on the ground. He looked furious and cold.
"Tell me, didn't I tell you to go to the border to help your third brother? Why did you come back in such a sorry state?" The Old Emperor glared angrily at Fa Chun. He saw that Fa Chun's arm had been crippled. Although the arm had been reattached, the Old Emperor could still sense the instability of Fa Chun's aura.
However, compared to this, he was even more infuriated by the fact that Fa Chun didn't take his orders seriously. At this moment, the border could be said to be full of danger. If Fa Xuan was the slightest bit careless, he would fall into a tragic death. However, these princes only knew how to enjoy themselves, which made the Old King's heart more and more complicated.
He hadn't paid attention to his son since he was a child, but now he was working for the Faran Empire. He didn't even want to sacrifice his own life for the Faran Empire. And now, his eldest son, who he cared about and spoiled, was crying. The old emperor's heart changed.
"Father, I want to go, but I have to accompany the five heroes of the Ancient Souls Clan. You said we need an alliance. If we don't ally with the Ancient Souls Clan, it'll be a great loss to the empire."
"That's what I think. The border is less than a thousand miles wide, and Fa Xuan is guarding it. So what if we lose it? Instead, you should seriously consider the alliance with the Ancient Soul Race. "
"Father, you know that the Ancient Soul Race is one of the more powerful Ancient Races. They aren't any weaker than the Ancient Mysterious Race or the Ancient Beast Race. Allying with such a power will only bring us benefits. On the other hand, if we lose the border, it won't matter."
Fa Chun's analysis was clear and logical, and his face was full of determination and confidence. It seemed that what he said was good for the Faran Empire, and it was a useful suggestion. However, he did not notice that the old king's face had already darkened to the color of a pig's liver, and he was almost about to hit someone.
"Report!"
Just as the atmosphere in the main hall was abnormally cold and somber, a voice broke the silence. Immediately after, a disciple came out with a piece of white cloth in his hand. On it was a letter written in blood.
"Reporting, Your Majesty, this letter of blood came from the border." After the disciple presented the blood letter, he explained to the Old King before retreating.
The Old King opened the blood letter anxiously and looked at the letter carefully and seriously. He had never paid attention to Fa Xuan's reports in the past, but today was the first time he was so concerned.
The Old King felt more and more guilty towards Fa Xuan as he read the contents of the letter. At the same time, he felt more and more angry and disgusted with Fa Chun's actions.
"Your Majesty, I've guarded the border for four days. Within these four days, I've led my men to kill eight hundred enemies, including six hundred Lower Ultimate Gods and one hundred and ninety Middle Ultimate Gods. The remaining ten people are the Sunlight Empire's Elders, Middle Upper Ultimate Gods, and High Upper Ultimate Gods.
"I've written to the imperial court to ask for reinforcements at the border, but there has been no news from Your Majesty, causing the border to once again fall into a passive state. I've now been trapped in the enemy's encirclement with three hundred disciples and am unable to break free. Hence, I've written a letter of blood and had eight men disguised as woodcutters to run in different directions to report to Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, please send reinforcements immediately. Otherwise, more than a thousand miles of land at the border will be lost."
Slap …
The Old King's face had already turned extremely ferocious before he finished reading the letter of blood. He slammed the letter on the table and glared at Fa Chun with a face full of disgust.
"Bastard, I told you to go to the border a long time ago. Now, Fa Xuan and his men are trapped in the enemy's encirclement. Let me tell you, you have three days to rescue Fa Xuan and the others. Otherwise, I'll issue a decree to remove you from your position as Crown Prince. Hmph!"
The Old King roared angrily like a mad lion. He left through the back door of the Heavenly Palace after his angry rebuke and no longer paid any attention to Fa Chun.
Fa Chun was so scared that he did not dare to raise his head. By the time he did, the Old King had already disappeared. He stood up at that moment and walked to the Dragon Throne to pick up the letter of blood. Fa Chun's expression changed slightly as he read the contents.
"I didn't expect the situation to be so serious." Fa Chun didn't know what to do. He hadn't thought that such a big problem would occur at the border. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have gone to the Zong Mo Valley with the five heroes of the Ancient Soul Clan.
Thinking back to Mu Feng's arrogant and condescending attitude, Fa Chun engraved this image deeply in his mind. The hatred between him and Mu Feng could be said to have been sown.
He was only thinking about Lin Feng's insolence and arrogance, but he didn't think about himself. Before, he had been ridiculing Lin Feng, looking down on Lin Feng. What kind of hatred did he have for Lin Feng?
"How worrisome, within three days?" Fa Chun smiled wryly and shook his head. Rescuing Fa Xuan and his men in three days was easier said than done, but no matter how difficult it was, he had to do it.
"I can only pray to the five heroes of the Ancient Soul Clan." Fa Chun sighed and left the Universal Palace. As for the Old Emperor's angry words, he didn't take it to heart. The Old Emperor wouldn't remove him from the position of Crown Prince. Based on how much the Old Emperor doted on him, the Old Emperor didn't even stand up for Fa Xuan when he embezzled the army's pay.
Therefore, this time, Fa Chun's mood was still the same. Relying on the Old Emperor's love for him, he was prepared to play unscrupulously. However, he didn't expect that this time, it wasn't that simple. He might even lose his position as the Crown Prince.
… …
During those three days, Lin Feng and Zu Ti had been translating the ancient words on the wall. They were almost finished. Lin Feng was extremely happy because it really had something to do with the corpse army. It didn't matter if it was an introduction to the corpse army, how to control them or how to increase their strength, it was all there was to know about them.
However, there was still a part of the text that hadn't been translated because the book didn't have any records of that language. Lin Feng and Zu Ti could only stand aside. They couldn't translate that part of the text, but at least they could translate the rest.
"The army of Demon Corpses appeared in Eternal Kingdom a million years ago. In half a month, they occupied two hundred million territories in the west of the Eternal Kingdom. But after half a month, they disappeared. No one knows where they went."
"The second army of Demon Corpses appeared in Eternal Kingdom eight hundred thousand years ago. In two months, they occupied the entire Eternal Kingdom and lasted for a hundred years. They led the leader of the army of Demon Corpses to establish the strongest empire in history, the Demon Kingdom."
"However, this time, it only lasted for a hundred years. The third time the Corpse Devil Legion appeared was six hundred thousand years ago. That time, the Corpse Devil Legion was defeated one by one by more and more human powerhouses. In the end, they were able to defend themselves and didn't mind the huge waves."
"Until the last time, which was about three hundred thousand years ago, the army of Demon Corpses appeared again. The leader of the army was a creature with bull horns, snake head, and the body of a horse. He held a sharp spear in his hand. It was this person who led the army of Demon Corpses in Eternal Kingdom and massacred more than seventy million people. It was the largest massacre in history."
"But in a short time, the expert who controlled the army of Demon Corpses disappeared from Eternal Kingdom. The army of Demon Corpses disappeared from the continent again. These Demon Corpses that couldn't think and move disappeared just like that.
"The last time they appeared was two hundred thousand years ago?"
Zu Ti was surprised. He should have known what happened a hundred thousand years ago, but he didn't have any recollection of it.
"Two hundred thousand years ago, the Wild Demon Valley collected the one hundred and eight Demon Corpses and prepared to use the most outstanding geniuses of the clan to control them. But at that time, a mysterious force and mysterious person appeared and killed everyone in the Wild Demon Valley in one night."
"But after killing everyone in the Wild Demon Valley, they couldn't find where the one hundred and eight Demon Corpses were hiding, so they returned in disappointment."
