No one knew if there were any dangers behind the Yun Gate, but the empress was confident in her own strength.
Ren Baqian followed closely behind, but someone grabbed his collar. Li Yuanzhu retracted her two jade-like fingers, glanced at Ren Baqian with a faint smile, and followed behind the empress.
Next was Lin Dong.
Ren Baqian looked to his left and right again. Seeing that no one was competing with him, he snorted and followed after them.
He felt that he was being discriminated against.
So what if you're a Spirit Wheel expert?
Do weaklings have no human rights?
With this resentment in mind, Ren Baqian turned around and instructed the others to retreat out of the valley if they didn't come out when the time was up. When he stepped into the Cloud Gate, he felt as if he had passed through a layer of water. A moist feeling enveloped his body, and when he stepped on solid ground, he went from day to night, temporarily blinding him.
However, he didn't sense any danger.
He could sense that the empress, Li Yuanzhu, and Lin Dong were not far ahead.
As he gradually adapted to the dim light, everything around him began to enter his eyes.
They were standing on a protruding rock in the middle of a hollowed out mountain. In front of them was a stone bridge about six meters wide. There was no guardrail, and it was pitch black below the bridge. They couldn't tell how deep it was, and they could only vaguely hear the sound of flowing water.
The stone bridge was a hundred feet long, and it led to a huge platform in the middle of the mountain.
Below the platform was a rock pillar that extended into the bottomless darkness.
The top of the stone pillar began to spread in all directions in an arc, like a big bowl.
The light came from the braziers at the four corners of the platform. No one knew how long the raging flames had been burning. Judging from the time, it was at least several thousand years, and they still hadn't extinguished.
The most eye-catching thing was the huge black shadow lying in the middle of the platform.
It was forty to fifty feet long and ten feet tall. Its body was like that of a ravenous wolf, and its entire body was scarlet red. However, its head was that of a dragon's head. Its appearance was strange, and its eyes were tightly shut, as if it was in a deep sleep.
"It's Ya Zi." Lin Dong inhaled a deep breath of air and said. "It is said that there is a Yazi under Di Can. This should be it."
Ren Baqian's gaze moved slightly. Yazi? That Ya Zi who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance? The kindness of a single meal must be repaid, and the grievance of a single stare must be avenged?
A legendary creature? The second son of the Dragon?
When the legendary creature appeared in front of him, he felt a strange sense of alienation.
However, this world even had Qilins and Dragons. Previously, in the tomb under the palace, they had also seen the corpse of a Soaring Serpent, so it was not surprising that a Dragon would appear here.
After all, the owner of this tomb was a Human Emperor.
But looking at its size, it wasn't something the fake Qilin in the imperial palace could compare to.
They were both legendary creatures, but Qi Shui was so weak that it made people's hair stand on end. At most, it had the strength of a Cardinal Heaven expert. Could it be because it was too young? Qi Shui was about fifty or sixty years old, maybe he was still underage? Just like Lin Qiaole.
Or was it because in this land of exile, even the strength of these legendary creatures would be affected?
"Is it still alive?" Ren Baqian asked softly, afraid that he would wake up the Ya Zi on the platform. From the looks of it, this thing should be the second level?
"He's already dead. There's no sign of life in his body." After the Empress finished speaking, she strode forward.
Ren Baqian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he was dead. This legendary creature had such a huge body, and it seemed that its combat power was not low.
In particular, it was still guarding the platform. It would be troublesome if it accidentally fell during the battle.
After heaving a sigh of relief, Ren Baqian felt that it was a pity.
Di Can definitely didn't let the Ya Zi guard here to eat everyone who came in. With the strength of the Longevity Heaven, the empress might be able to pass. If this Ya Zi was brought out alive, it would be a great fighting force.
However, after being washed away by the river of time, the legendary Ya Zi was now just an empty shell.
Ren Baqian walked forward and carefully sized up this huge creature that was three meters tall even when it was lying down. Even though it was dead, he could still feel the ferocity and fierceness of its body, mainly because of the pressure of its huge body.
However, he could see a trace of calmness on its face.
He didn't know how long it had been guarding here, but the descendant that the Human Emperor had been waiting for didn't come. There was no unwillingness, reluctance, or unbearable loneliness. It was as if it was peacefully following its master in its sleep.
Ren Baqian couldn't help but reach out to touch it. As an Earthling, it would be strange if he didn't want to touch such a creature.
It didn't turn into ashes like the flying serpent. It felt cold and hard as if touching wood and stone.
"Let's go." The empress stopped in front of the corpse of the Ya Zi for a moment before stepping on the stone bridge behind it.
The others didn't have Ren Baqian's strange and regretful feelings. In their opinion, this was just a kind of ferocious beast. At most, it was more powerful when it was alive, and its master was more amazing.
At the end of the stone bridge were two tall stone doors with a map-like pattern painted on them.
"It's the map of Ansu." Lin Dong identified it and then added, "Ansu is the area under the control of Di Can.
"I remember that there are 237 areas, and the Human Race controls 10? Di Can only control one area of Ansu? "Ren Baqian asked curiously. There were only five Human Emperors in total.
Could it be that Di Can was a weaker Human Emperor?
"Ansu is the birthplace of the Human Race and the most prosperous place at that time," Lin Dong explained.
"Didn't you only know a little after lifting the coffins of your ancestors? How do you know so much now?" Ren Baqian asked, full of doubt that Ren Baqian was hiding a lot of things.
He was the one who found Di Can's tomb, knew that the Ya Zi was a ferocious beast under Di Can, and even knew about Ansu. He didn't know how much he didn't say.
It was really puzzling that Lin Dong knew so many things.
Lin Dong was silent for a while and said in a strangely calm tone, "When I go back, I will lift all the coffins of my ancestors."
This time, even Li Yuanzhu couldn't help but look at him with surprise in her eyes.
"Even if your ancestors knew a little, only the first two generations of ancestors would know, right?" Ren Baqian was stunned for a moment before continuing.
"Over the past thousands of years, more than one tomb has been discovered. Occasionally, there will be some discoveries left behind by the ancestors," Lin Dong said indifferently.
Your ancestors dug up graves for no reason?
Now you even dug up their graves?
Sure enough, those who dug up people were dug up.
Ren Baqian had a strange look on his face and didn't know where to start.
There were too many things to complain about.
If your ancestors knew that you were like this, they would probably strangle you at first sight.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Ren Baqian and the others weren't much better. Weren't they digging up the tomb of the Human Emperor?
Ren Baqian gave him a thumbs up and didn't speak anymore.
The empress pushed the stone door twice, but it didn't budge. She exerted all her strength, surged her blood, and a shadow appeared behind her before slowly pushing the stone door open.
It revealed a stone room with a radius of more than 30 meters.
A burly man in metal armor was sitting in it.
Just as the empress was about to step forward, she suddenly looked incredulous and cried out, "There is vitality in his body. Is Di Can alive?"
