They were well aware of the emperor's condition.
Usually, no matter how urgent the matter was, no matter how close the officials were to the emperor, they had to go through layers of checks before they could enter the inner palace.
It was the same for Assistant Minister Yan and the two Embroidered Uniform Guards.
They were well aware of how complicated the process would be if they wanted to see the Emperor … But this process was necessary.
The emperor, who sat in Taiji Palace, was the core of the world. If anything went wrong, it would be difficult for the entire world to operate.
But.
For Han Dong, who had just arrived at the palace, the emperor took the initiative to skip the checks and let Assistant Minister Yan lead Han Dong to the inner palace.
This not only made the Embroidered Uniform Guards worried.
Even Assistant Minister Yan, who had introduced him, was a little flustered. He retracted his foot that was about to step into the threshold.
"Your Majesty, your body …"
"It's fine. Come in."
This vigorous voice, like a dragon's roar, came from the corpse aura that was constantly seeping out.
There was an invisible pressure in the voice itself. It was as if there were countless corpses hanging around them, conveying the emperor's words at the same time.
"Yes."
Assistant Minister Yan did not dare to be negligent and quickly reminded him.
"Han Dong, when you walk in Taiji Palace, you must stay by my side. You are not allowed to act on your own accord.
His Majesty's condition is very special. To be precise, he is in a weak state. So, if I detect any 'strange' movements from you, I will suppress you. "
"Understood."
"Come in."
Although Han Dong was a little confused about what a weak state was, he did not have the chance to ask Assistant Minister Yan since he had already stepped into Taiji Palace. He only needed to follow him in and he would know when the time came.
The moment he stepped into the threshold.
A field quickly enveloped Han Dong.
Compared to the corpse aura field that covered the entire palace, the inside of Taiji Palace was the truly terrifying area.
"A field that can affect reality! Is it really a mythical body? "
The dazzling inner palace was no longer there. It was covered by the field that "interfered with reality." The area Han Dong stepped into was more like a Corpse Palace.
The ground was covered with a layer of stiff skin that was even harder than steel. The skin was sewn together with needles and threads, and there was a large amount of black hair growing in some areas.
The pillars in the palace were made of corpses of zombies. A large number of their limbs were hanging outside, and corpse oil was dripping from their long and sinister black nails.
Zombie skulls were embedded into the walls of the palace, and they all wore expressions of extreme pain.
Some of the heads of the zombies had been cut horizontally to serve as lampstands. There were several black candles that could burn indefinitely by extracting corpse oil.
Just as I expected, it's a Mythical Body … Tomb really can't contain such a powerhouse.
There were originally only two paths left for the Tomb Lord.
First, accept recruitment from a higher world, go to a brand new world and become a member.
Second, the upgrade of one's own world.
The Tomb Lord obviously rejected the first option.
At the same time, on the basis of the second item, I plan to separate my own kingdom, cut off the various restrictions of the Tomb world, and create a brand-new world that belongs to me.]
Han Dong could faintly feel a kind of suction force as he walked through the palace. It was a kind of suction force that only belonged to the strong.
In some ways, the ruler of Corpse Country and Han Dong were the same kind of people.
At the center of Taiji Palace.
A huge, dark curtain covered the central area in a square shape.
Corpse energy kept flowing out from the bottom of the curtain like a tide. Obviously, the ruler of Corpse Country, the source of the loss of control, and the manipulator who caused the world to be severed was inside.
Even though he could not see the emperor's appearance clearly, he was already "meeting the emperor".
Assistant Minister Yan was ten meters away from the curtain. He knelt down on both knees and took off the wooden mask on his face, revealing elegant blue hair and a fresh and handsome face.
"Your Majesty, this young man is Han Dong. He's a genius I met when I was dealing with the Corpse Gu incident.
Without the help of the secret ministry, he started researching Corpse Gu on his own and obtained a research manuscript that I think is extremely valuable.
I brought him here to meet the emperor to verify his identity and crown him as a secret officer. "
The voice of a hundred corpses immediately came from inside the curtain.
"I'll make arrangements for the secret officer.
Assistant Minister Yan, you've saved me a lot of trouble by devoting yourself to the research of Corpse Gu. You've worked hard all these years. "
"Corpse Gu is the fate of the country. The meaning of my existence is to manage the fate of the country for Your Majesty.
Compared to the sacrifices Your Majesty has made for our country, my small matter is nothing. If Han Dong's research manuscript can be implemented normally, the fate of the country will be further stabilized. "
"Alright, you can leave now. I want to talk to this young man alone."
Yan Bowen was still immersed in the emperor's praise a second ago, but now he was stunned.
"Your Majesty, this is the first time I've met Han Dong. I brought him here because I admire his talent, but I don't know much about his temperament.
For safety reasons, I request that he stay here. "
Although Yan Bowen was completely worried about the emperor.
As soon as he finished speaking, his whole body was immediately bound by an irresistible corpse energy and forcefully pushed out.
The next second.
Assistant Minister Yan was sent out of Taiji Palace and almost fell down the stairs. He was still kneeling and trembling with a dumbfounded expression.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard waiting at the door also hurriedly asked, "Assistant Minister Yan, why did you come out? Where's that young man? "
"I don't know … His Majesty is acting strangely today. He wants to meet that young man alone and even wants to drive me out.
We can only wait at the door. If anything strange happens, we'll immediately go to Taiji Palace to provide assistance. "
"Who is this young man you brought back?"
"I don't know either …" Assistant Minister Yan had an awkward expression.
… …
Inside Taiji Palace.
After Assistant Minister Yan was forcefully removed, only Han Dong was left in front of the curtain.
"Come in."
"Alright."
When Han Dong reached out to touch the curtain in front of him, he felt as if he was moving a mountain of corpses. Even if he summoned Tuogu, it would probably be difficult to lift the curtain.
Since brute force was difficult to break through, he switched to skill.
Circulating the Floating Corpse Internal Sutra, he followed the corpse energy on the surface of the curtain and flowed his body into it.
In the next second, Han Dong easily reached the inside of the curtain and achieved the true meaning of 'meeting the emperor'.
The scene in front of him stunned Han Dong.
Although he had made many assumptions in advance, Han Dong had never expected such a scene … At the same time, he also understood what Assistant Minister Yan meant by 'weak'.
It was a black wooden dragon throne modified from some kind of thousand-year-old coffin.
The monarch of the Corpse Kingdom, Tomb Lord, was' fixed 'on it.
His pitch-black body was like a scorched shell, and there were silver needles the length of a finger.
The end of each silver needle was connected to a corpse oil conduit, and high-purity corpse essence flowed into his body through the silver needles.
(The refined corpse oil came from the oil mill district. After it was transported to the imperial city, it was purified by the corpse essence refining device underground.)
The Tomb Lord's body was the [Loss of Control Generator].
The continuous injection of corpse essence, coupled with the 'Unique Corpse Collection – World Annihilation Corpse Manual' that the Tomb Lord cultivated, produced a kind of death aura that could cut off his connection with the Black Tower and cause the world's corpses to change.
It was precisely so.
The Tomb Lord was in a weak state and could not leave the imperial palace.
It was precisely so.
The conditions for meeting the emperor were extremely harsh. Even the Tomb Lord's confidant had to be inspected before he could step into Taiji Palace.
It was precisely so.
The management of the Corpse Kingdom required the use of the [Corpse Gu], which was similar to enslavement, to ensure that there would not be any changes led by zombies in the Corpse Kingdom during the separation of the world.
The Tomb Lord was now focused on the matter of the world's upgrade, to ensure that the entire process was foolproof.
