As soon as he said that, the Venerable crossed his arms and looked at Ye Zichen and the others as if they were begging him.
Strangely, this time, none of Ye Zichen's group was bursting with curiosity. They didn't show the slightest interest in knowing why the God Emperor's tomb had the word "transcendence."
The Venerable Lord of Numinous Treasure could not help but ask for a snub, but he still continued to talk about the origin of the word 'transcendence'.
"Before the end of any era, a transcendence tomb will appear. It's an unchanging, eternal law."
"Before the second era transcended, the remains of the God Emperor chosen by the Emperor Star were buried in this mausoleum. After that, the Four Great Auxiliary Stars sealed the mausoleum, which was why it was called the mausoleum of the God Emperor in the third era."
"Don't underestimate this tomb. There really is an opportunity for transcendence hidden here."
The Venerable of Lingbao shook his head and chuckled as if he was showing off his knowledge. The others did not respond, but the Venerable of Lingbao's explanation of the word "transcendence" was deeply imprinted in their minds.
The Transcendence Tomb.
The tomb actually contained the Second Era's Master of the Stars.
Ye Zichen's heart trembled. If this really was the tomb of the Second Era's Master of the Stars, then even emperor-level experts couldn't ignore the good fortune within.
Just now, the Venerable had clearly mentioned that there was an opportunity for transcendence here.
But if this was a tomb with an opportunity for transcendence, why hadn't it fallen into the hands of the Gods, Yao, and Demons? Why had it fallen into a lower plane where even their peak experts were only immortal kings?
"I never would have guessed you'd arrive even faster than me."
Suddenly, hearty laughter filled the air above the tomb. This familiar voice caused Ye Zichen and the others to frown. They looked up and saw, to their astonishment, Gu Li and the others.
However, Gu Li didn't see the Left and Right Envoys with him.
The only ones who'd come with him were An Lu and the two imperial emperors Gu Li had arranged to look after her.
Although Gu Li had taken the initiative to befriend them recently, the conflict between them had long since escalated.
Almost instinctively, Yang Jian and the others sealed off their auras and protected Ye Zichen in the middle.
"Enemies?" Xue Lan couldn't help but knit her brows. "Should I call the alliance's people over?"
"No!"
Ye Zichen called out to stop her. He knew Xue Lan had the strength to back him up. Not long ago, Xue Qi and Stone ascended, and Xue Lan became the new leader of the Upheaval Alliance.
With his status as the Alliance Leader, it was naturally not difficult for him to summon some Celestial King level helpers.
However, compared to Gu Li and the others, or more accurately, compared to people at their level, immortal kings were far too low.
"Hey, it's not that bad."
By now, Gu Li and the others had also landed on the ground. Laughing heartily, Gu Li's expression was somewhat helpless. He shrugged and tried to approach.
"Stand there and don't move."
At that moment, the Great Sage stabbed forward with his Ruyi Jingu Bang. If Gu Li dared take a single step forward, the Great Sage's Ruyi Jingu Bang would swing down without hesitation.
An Lu bit her lips and stood in the middle, looking back and forth between Gu Li and Ye Zichen.
Gu Li's smile remained as helpless as ever. He shrugged, took two steps back, then looked at An Lu with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll be fine.
"You can go over."
Nodding slightly, An Lu ran over with a smile on her face.
As An Lu approached, Yang Jian and the others made no attempt to stop her. They allowed her to reach Ye Zichen's side.
"Big Brother Zichen," said An Lu sweetly.
"Why'd you come with me?" He patted An Lu on the head, then looked up. His smile faded, and he looked at Gu Li. "What were you thinking? Why'd you bring An Lu here?"
"It's not Gu Li's fault. I insisted on coming. I'm starting to miss you, Big Brother Zichen." An Lu laughed foolishly.
When he saw her pure smile, Ye Zichen's iron heart melted instantly. He looked warmly at An Lu, his eyes filled with love and affection for his little sister. Then he looked back at Gu Li, but didn't dwell on An Lu's arrival.
"How rare. The Demon Emperor and the others aren't with you."
"Aren't you the same? The Ocean Emperor and the others didn't come with you either," said Gu Li.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Ye Zichen got straight to the point.
"You brought the fragments, right?"
"Naturally." Gu Li unhesitatingly opened his palm, revealing two key fragments to the God Emperor's Tomb. "These are all I've got. Given your relationship with the Jade Lake Palace Master, you should have Great Immortal Taibai's key fragment as well. As for the one in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda …."
Ye Zichen didn't waste any time. With a flip of his hand, he took out a key fragment as well.
He had three key fragments. One was from Taibai Jinxing's red packet, the second was from Fairy Zixia's family heirloom, and the last was from the Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
Five key fragments appeared in the same place. They seemed to resonate with each other, and each trembled violently in Ye Zichen's and Gu Li's hands.
"You really don't disappoint. In just half a month, you really did become a ruler," laughed Gu Li.
"Don't say such useless things. You have Gu Li from the Outside by your side. I'm sure you know how to fuse the fragments into a single key."
"Naturally," laughed Gu Li. "I naturally know how to fuse the fragments, and I also know how to open the tomb."
"That's for the best. The fortune inside depends on our own abilities. Whoever gets it first gets it. However, there's one thing I absolutely must have," said Ye Zichen. "Soul Grass? I know," laughed Gu Li calmly. Gu Li smiled calmly. "If it's just the two of us going in, I can naturally give it to you. However …. Once the tomb opens, it won't be as simple as you think. Oh, right, before we open it, I have to warn you. I recommend that you chase away all these small fries.
It's best if you leave as soon as possible. "
"Who are you calling small fries?" frowned Lil 'Yu.
"I'm talking about you."
Gu Li naturally didn't show any fear in the face of Lil 'Yu's questions. The difference between them was as vast as the distance between heaven and earth. In his eyes, an immortal king like Lil 'Yu could be obliterated with a single breath.
Gu Li merely glanced at Lil 'Yu. She'd been furious just a moment ago, but now it was as if she'd been frozen solid.
Her entire body trembled, her face as white as a sheet, and she knelt to the ground.
"Gu Li."
Ye Zichen called out to Gu Li, then hurriedly sealed off the space around Lil 'Yu, then tapped her forehead a few times.
