The Ghost Valley's Emperor's Coffin!
When the Nine Tribulation Sovereign and Heavenly Evil Monarch saw the black coffin floating in the sky, their faces changed and they exclaimed.
The secret that they had been waiting for was the Ghost Valley's Emperor's Coffin!
There was something shocking hidden in the Ghost Valley's Emperor's Coffin!
"The Ghost Valley's Emperor's Coffin!" When Nie Tian heard the Nine Tribulation Sovereign and Heavenly Evil Monarch's voices, he squinted his eyes and flew towards the coffin.
"Don't get close!" But at this moment, the Ghost Emperor's voice resounded in panic.
Hovering in midair, Nie Tian's expression flickered as he came to a stop.
Rustle! The moment he came to a stop, the Ghost Valley Emperor's Coffin suddenly trembled. Then, a streak of blood-colored light shot out of the coffin. It was so sharp that it tore a space-time rift in the air and shot towards Nie Tian.
"Hmm?" Nie Tian exclaimed in surprise as he felt a suffocating chill assaulting his face.
At this moment, he felt the threat of death.
That seemingly inconspicuous blood-red light actually had the ability to kill him.
In the blink of an eye, Nie Tian reacted and tilted his body slightly. The blood-colored light brushed past his chest, leaving a deep wound on his chest. Blood gushed out of the wound and instantly dyed his lower body red.
Nie Tian squinted his eyes as he looked at the wound on his chest with an unsightly expression.
There was a black aura coming from the wound, and it showed no signs of healing.
"Damn it!" Nie Tian roared as he endured the pain and forcefully released the Terra Vein's Source.
A brief moment later, the wound started to heal.
But at this moment, Nie Tian's face was as pale as paper.
"What a close call!" Looking at the wound on his chest, he let out a long breath with lingering fear in his heart.
If not for the Ghost Thearch's warning, he would have been killed by the blood-colored light.
That blood-colored light was extremely sharp. If he was hit by it head-on, he would definitely be killed instantly.
Nie Tian's impulsiveness almost cost him his life.
He didn't expect that after the Emperor's coffin was unsealed in the Ghost Valley, there would be such a terrifying killing intent.
The crowd stared at Nie Tian in shock for a long time. Then, a look of disappointment appeared on their faces, as if they were regretful that Nie Tian wasn't killed by the blood-colored light.
Today, the strength that Nie Tian had displayed was too shocking. Everyone felt that he shouldn't exist, that he shouldn't live.
The Nine Tribulation Mystic Sovereign and the Heavenly Evil Monarch even looked regretful.
They didn't know how Nie Tian had sensed the danger at the last moment.
Nie Tian stabilized his body and looked at the Emperor's coffin in the Ghost Valley. His expression could not help but change.
He could see a layer of crimson runes circulating around the coffin, emitting a cold and dark aura that was extremely powerful.
Earlier, the blood-colored light was formed by those crimson runes that nearly took Nie Tian's life.
"It's a bloodline restriction!" At this moment, the Ghost Thearch's voice resounded, "So the Emperor's coffin in the Ghost Valley has set up a powerful bloodline restriction to prevent others from approaching. Only the Ghost Valley's clansmen can approach! "
"Mhm?" Nie Tian's gaze sank as he figured it out in his heart.
The bloodline restriction outside the coffin was to prevent outsiders from approaching the coffin.
Evidently, the Ghost Valley's coffin was left behind by a powerhouse of the Ghost Valley's clansmen for the descendants of the Ghost Valley's clansmen.
"Those two Divine Evolution Saint Souls should have been left behind by an ancestor of the Ghost Valley's clansmen." The Ghost Thearch's expression was gloomy as he said, "If I'm not mistaken, the one lying in the Ghost Valley's coffin should be an ancestor of the Ghost Valley's clansmen!"
Nie Tian's eyes turned cold when he heard the Ghost Thearch's words. He could not hide the shock on his face as he asked, "Could it be that the one lying in the Ghost Valley's coffin is the corpse of an ancestor of the Ghost Valley's clansmen?"
"It's very possible!" The Ghost Thearch's eyes trembled as he said in a heavy tone.
"This …" Nie Tian's expression stiffened and he was speechless.
The ancestor of the Ghost Valley's clansmen must have been a powerful existence.
Since he was able to set up the Traversing Heavenly Seal and the Traversing Formation in the Emperor's Stele, it undoubtedly meant that the ancestor of the Ghost Valley's clansmen was at the peak of the Sage Realm.
That also meant that the corpse of a Sage was lying in the Ghost Valley's Emperor's Coffin!
The corpse of a Sage was a very precious thing.
Just think about it, even a Sage's corpse could cause a frenzied fight between cultivators. So how precious would a complete Sage's corpse be?
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that if the matter of a Sage's corpse spread out, it would definitely cause a huge wave in the myriad domains.
The power contained in a Sage's corpse was related to the Sage Realm, and it was something that cultivators in the various domains yearned for!
It was no wonder why the Nine Profound Sect would send out two Sovereigns for the Emperor's Stele!
"Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities, snatch the Emperor's Coffin!" The Heavenly Evil Monarch suddenly roared as he looked at the Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities.
"Roger!" The eyes of the Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities trembled as they tossed Jun Aoqing towards the Heavenly Evil Monarch. Thereafter, their silhouettes moved like a streak of light as they flew towards the Emperor's Coffin in the Ghost Valley.
"Dream on!" Nie Tian's face sank as he shouted in a low voice. Sword intent erupted from his entire body, and it was fierce and murderous like a tsunami as it charged towards the sky.
At this moment, he finally understood why the Heavenly Evil Monarch wanted to bring the Seven Calamities to the Sacred Soul Domain. So it turned out that it was to open the Emperor's Coffin in the Ghost Valley.
There was a powerful bloodline restriction around the Ghost Valley's Emperor's Coffin, and aside from the Ghost Valley's clansmen, no one else could approach it.
Evidently, the Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities were cultivators of the Ghost Valley's clansmen!
But with Nie Tian here, how could he allow the Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities to approach the Emperor's Coffin?
"Sacred Heaven Defying Sword - Sun Defying Sword!" In the next moment, Nie Tian let out a bellow and slashed out with the Star Heavenly Slash. Sword shadows whizzed through the air like dragons, carrying torrential killing intent. They sealed off a part of the void and charged madly towards the Seven Calamities of the Ghostvale.
The Seven Disasters of the Ghost Valley suddenly felt an immense pressure pressing down on them, causing their expressions to change. They immediately unsheathed their long swords and slashed towards the incoming pressure.
Rumble! In the next moment, the two swords clashed together, causing space to tremble as if it was on the verge of collapsing. Instantly, boundless sword intent swept out.
The Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities were forced back a few thousand meters.
At this moment, Nie Tian could easily suppress the Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities without using the Sky Evolution Saint Soul.
"How did your sword intent become so powerful?!" When the Ghost Valley's Seven Calamities stabilized their silhouettes, their faces changed as they looked at Nie Tian with fear in their eyes.
They never expected that Nie Tian's sword intent would be so terrifying. It wasn't any weaker than him, and it was even vaguely suppressing him.
At this moment, Nie Tian was clearly a Transcendent Realm swordsman!
But how was that possible?
Back when Nie Tian was in the Forsaken Land, his Sword Dao was still weak.
In just a few years, Nie Tian had grown to the Transcendent Realm. His comprehension of Sword Dao was too terrifying.
"With me around, no one can approach the Emperor's Coffin!" Nie Tian sneered as a terrifying sword aura surged from his body.
"Nie Tian!" But at this moment, the Heavenly Evil Monarch's voice resounded, "If you don't want the Netherworld Princess to die, then retreat!"
