They saw a zombie draped in a yellow robe slowly and stiffly approaching the two of them.
Lin Xiu and Kun Peng completely held their breaths and didn't dare to make any rash movements. The situation before them was still unclear, and they couldn't sense the slightest fluctuation of Origin Energy from the zombie that carried them. They didn't know how strong the zombie was, and if they rashly made a move, it would probably bring about bad consequences.
Judging from the robe that the zombie was wearing, it was completely different from the style of the mainland. They could tell that it was a person from a very long time ago.
"Kun Peng, you have lived for so long. You should have seen the three great emperors. Do you think this is …" Lin Xiu was also a little afraid, so he asked Kun Peng next to him, hoping to get some useful information from him.
"The strength of the three great emperors is too strong. When I fought with them, I could not see their real faces even when I used my full strength. But judging from the robe that the zombie is wearing, it should belong to a king," Kun Peng shook his head and said with uncertainty.
At this moment, the zombie finally turned its face towards them, its pupils pulsing with a dark green flame.
"After so many years, has someone finally found this place?" The zombie actually spoke the human language and spoke with a strong sense of decay. It shocked Lin Xiu and Kun Peng.
Lin Xiu understood that what Kun Peng said about the three great emperors retaining a bit of their consciousness was probably true.
The two of them, who did not know the real situation of the zombie, bowed respectfully to the yellow robe in front of them. Then, they braced themselves and said, "Senior, the two of us have an extremely important matter, so we had no choice but to come here. We definitely did not mean to offend you."
"Can you tell me how many years have passed outside?" As the zombie said this, it slowly twisted its neck. It was obvious that it was not used to being alone for a long time.
"It has been 20,000 years since the era of the three great emperors. Right now, hundreds of schools of thought are contending on the mainland. All kinds of remarkable powers are emerging, but no one has been able to surpass the achievements of the three great emperors," Lin Xiu said with a rare respect.
Back then, the three great emperors were indeed ahead of all living beings. Even with the suppression of Taoist Wu Kong and the one in the bottom of the sea, they still became existences in the Enlightened Plane.
Even after tens of thousands of years, no one else could achieve such a powerful talent. From this, it could be seen that the three great emperors were peerless geniuses.
The flames in the zombie's eyes suddenly dimmed a little. It was obvious that he was a little sad after such a long time.
"Actually, I've already fallen a long time ago. What you're seeing now is just a little bit of my spirituality before I died. Don't worry, I don't have the ability to harm you now. The reason why I'm persisting is because I want to tell the future generations a shocking secret." Every time the zombie spoke, it would take a long time to catch its breath. Clearly, it was just as it said; it really didn't have much strength left.
Lin Xiu was a little moved and was about to approach, but Kun Peng on the side held his arm tightly and shook his head slowly.
The corners of the zombie's mouth suddenly curled into a slight smile when he saw this, and then he slowly nodded. His gaze turned towards the Kun Peng, and he suddenly said, "You should be the Kun Peng from all those years ago, right? I never expected that after 20,000 years, your strength still hasn't changed at all. You really are a little too useless."
The zombie's words were not salty, but when it heard Kun Peng's words, it made its face turn red. It tried its best to argue, but in the end, it could only helplessly lower its head. After all, what the zombie said was the truth and there was really nothing to refute.
"Child, don't worry, I am also a human, naturally, I will not harm the descendants of my own race." When facing Lin Xiu, the zombie's attitude was obviously much better. There was encouragement in its eyes, which made Lin Xiu calm down. Ignoring Kun Peng's obstruction, he directly came in front of the zombie.
When he was only a foot away from the zombie, Lin Xiu stopped and quietly sized up the peerless expert that shook the world 20,000 years ago.
Time had left indelible marks on the body of the great emperor in front of him. The skin of the great emperor in front of him was loose, the clothes on his body were wrinkled, and even his nails had become dark.
"Fortunately, you guys have already come here, I can't hold on for much longer. Next, let's not talk nonsense, I will tell you the most important thing, then you can make your own choice." The zombie roused himself and the flames in his eyes seemed to become a little more lively. He then turned his head and looked at Kun Peng faintly, causing the latter to be shocked. In an instant, he found a direction and escaped.
The great emperor slowly sat down cross-legged and tore open the robe on his body, revealing the muscles inside. However, they had long been loose, like the roots of an old tree. All kinds of wounds crisscrossed, it looked really terrible.
"You must have been pushed by Taoist Wukong to come here, but this is nothing, he has always been the best at scheming." There was a hint of self-mockery at the corner of the zombie's mouth. However, Lin Xiu did not understand what the zombie was saying.
"Back then, only Taoist Wukong and that person at the bottom of the sea know where the three of us died. You must have been guided by the two of them to be able to find this place. Otherwise, no matter what, even if a peak Manifestation Realm expert came to the front of Huang Tupo, he wouldn't be able to see the slightest difference, and it wouldn't have caused Huang Tupo to change and send you guys here." The great emperor shook his head, then said with a bitter tone.
"Taoist Wukong and that person at the bottom of the sea, these two seniors have indeed put in a lot of effort for the stability of the entire continent. However, they have become a little different from before. Back then, although the three of us risked our lives and hoped to be able to fight for a victory, we have indeed committed an irreparable mistake. But if Taoist Wukong still remembers that person to help us, the three of us wouldn't have to pay the price of our own lives to restore the continent to its original state."
The great emperor spoke in an extremely calm tone, recounting what happened back then. There was no resentment towards Taoist Wukong in his tone, only some doubt.
